Hamas Barbarians Release 11 More Jewish Hostages Including a Girl in a Wheelchair and Mothers Holding Terrified Children By Jim Hoft
Nov. 27, 2023 7:40 pm – Hamas barbarians released 11 more Jewish hostages from 52 days of captivity on Monday night.
Palestinians jumped on their van, terrorizing the Israelis during their final ride from Gaza.
This was the fourth group of Israeli hostages released by Hamas.
Hamas also released 14 Thai hostages over the weekend.
The Wolfson Hospital in Israel said the hostages were malnourished and went days without food.
One little girl released on Monday was in a wheelchair. She left Gaza with her mother. Her father is still held captive by the barbarians.
11-year-old Yuval Engel was healthy on October 7th. Today she cannot walk.
Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar met with captured Israelis in Gaza
One of the released Israelis claims that Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar met her in person in Gaza, promising ‘Nothing will happen to you.’
Nov 27, 2023, 8:42 PM (GMT+2) Israel National News – Yahya Sinwar, the leader of Hamas in gaza and the planner of the Oct. 7th massacre, met with captured Israelis in one of the tunnels under Gaza, according to journalist Amit Segal.
According to the report, one of the women captured recounted how in the last days of captivity, she told her family that she had met Sinwar in the first days of the war. “He spoke fluent Hebrew to the cpatives, saying ‘Hello, I am Yahya Sinwar. You are safest here. Nothing will happen to you.”
Earlier, journalist Ben Caspit reported that during the last few years, Prime Minister Netanyahu was presented with six different operational plans to assassinate Sinwar, by the three most recent directors of the ISA: Yoram Cohen, Nadav Argaman, and Ronen Bar. Netanyahu declined them all.

The IDF’s Arabic language spokesman, Avichai Edrei, spoke with the Sky News channel in Arabic, and reported that the Bibas family that had been abducted by Hamas from Nir Oz was being held by a different faction in the Khan Younis region. The different factions holding captives are causing delays in the prisoner exchange process and preventing the extension of the current ceasefire.
Adriana, one of the captives, told Mako about the conditions in Hamas captivity. According to her, they were fed only rice and small pitas that had to be divided into pieces to ensure everyone got some. They were unsure if there would be any food the next day.
She also claims that the captives were held above and below ground, and were not given sufficient calories, changes of clothes, or a chance to bathe. Only on their last day in capitivity were they given fresh clothes, after fifty days without a chance to bathe and still wearing the clothes in which they were captured.

4-year-old Avigail reunited with family after 50 days as a hostage
Toddler whose parents were murdered on October 7 meets her aunt and grandparents after being freed from Hamas captivity.
Nov 27, 2023, 5:23 PM Israel National News – 51 days have passed since 4-year-old Avigail Idan was taken hostage following the murder of both of her parents by Hamas terrorists during the massacre of October 7.
Last night (Sunday), Avigail was finally released and met with members of her extended family, who will raise her now that her parents have been murdered by Hamas. Avigail’s case became a cause celebre among the 240 hostages held by Hamas after it was raised by US President Joe Biden due to her age and the fact that she is an American citizen.
Avigail’s aunt, Amit Idan, said that the child “arrived very tired, she probably had a long journey – but she’s fine, she’s really fine, she’ll get over the shock a little from all the faces she doesn’t know.”
Carmel, Avigail’s grandfather, said that she “probably hasn’t bathed since the first day. Tomorrow she will be released. She asked about what happened to her siblings. As for her father and mother, she didn’t ask about them. She asked to see them but not to meet them.”
Avigail’s siblings, Michael, 9, and Amalya, 6, survived the massacre and escaped capture by hiding in a closet for 14 hours.
Freed hostages didn’t know of dead kin as they reveal what life was like with Hamas By Ronny Reyes
Nov. 26, 2023, 3:55 p.m. ET – At least some Hamas hostages are being totally cut off from the outside world — with several only learning after release that kin were killed Oct. 7 — and fed a bland diet of rice and pita while enduring hours-long waits for the bathroom, according to those freed.
The family members of some of the released hostages revealed to outlets what life was like for their loved ones during the grueling weeks in captivity.
Ruthie Munder, 78, her daughter Keren Munder, 54, and grandson Ohad Munder-Zichri, 9, were released Friday night as part of a cease-fire deal between Israel and Hamas.
A stricken Ruthie only learned about her son Roi’s death after being released Friday, said the elderly woman’s niece, Merav Mor Raviv, according to the New York Times on Sunday.
Ravi also said her relatives were mostly fed rice and pita by their captors, a diet that caused both Ruthi and Keren to lose between 13 and 18 pounds since Oct. 7.
“They were eating, but not regularly and not all of the time,” she told the outlet.
The uncle of recently freed Noam and Alma Or said the teens also were given devastating news similar to what Ruthie Munder received after being released — that their mother, Yonat Or, was killed Oct. 7.
“They have some difficult stories to tell of the way they were captured and treated,” uncle Ahal Besorai told the BBC on Sunday of the teens.
Yaffa Adar, 85, who was among those released Friday night, also lost weight during her captivity, the grandmother’s family told reporters Sunday during a call organized by the Hostages and Missing Families Forum.
Adar was famously pictured being carried away in a golf cart by Hamas terrorists.
Ravi said that when her relatives needed to use the bathroom, they would knock on the door to alert Hamas terrorists but that her kin would sometimes have to wait up to two hours before they could go.
“I Wish I Were There to Hold Her” – Biden Goes Off-Script in Remarks on 4-Year-Old American Hostage Released by Hamas (VIDEO) By Cristina Laila
Nov. 26, 2023 2:40 pm – Joe Biden on Sunday delivered remarks on the release of Israeli and American hostages by Hamas terrorists.
13 Israeli hostages and 4 foreign nationals were released by Hamas on Sunday (Middle East time). They were all captured when Hamas terrorists stormed the border into Israel and slaughtered 1,400 Jews on October 7.
The names of the latest hostages to be released:
1. Abigail Idan, 4

Aunt Of Four-Year Old American Hostage Released On Sunday Linked To Democratic Donations, Hunter Biden Painting, Biden White House Access, And Cushy Biden Appointment By Christine Dolan
November 26, 2023 – Over the last seven weeks, President Joe Biden, U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken and many other Biden administration officials have hopscotched all over the Middle East meeting with heads of state focusing on getting the hostages home and raising the argument that Israel has the right to defend itself after the Hamas terrorist attack on Oct. 7 when 1,400 were killed and 240 were taken hostage to Gaza.
The Biden Administration has garnered attention speaking about the peace truce for the three to one ratio exchange of three Palestinian prisoners in Israel for every one Hamas-taken hostage.
During the first two days of the four-day exchange, no Americans were released.
On Sunday, the first American was released.
Abigail Mor Edan, one of many young children released by Hamas over the last three days, was the first American toddler released on Sunday.
Little Abigail’s story is of particular travesty. She is an orphan.
She was kidnapped as a three-year-old on October 7 after witnessing Hamas murder both of her parents on Oct. 7.
While being held Hamas inside the Gaza Strip, Abigail turned four years of age.
Her family, as well as the President of the United States, publicly stated how thrilled they were that she was released, as earlier reported by CDM.
Abigail’s Aunt is more than connected to the Bidens and perhaps explains why Abigail was the first American, although in the third wave of the hostage for prisoner swap.
Abigail’s Aunt, Elizabeth Naftali, is a Los Angeles real estate investor, democratic donor, who is connected to Hunter Biden’s art, has had access to the Biden White House, and received a cushy appointment by President Joe Biden.
Federal Election Commission records show almost 1,700 democratic political donation entries by Natali over recent years.
It is reported in the records that Naftali gave $5,600 directly to Biden’s campaign and thousands in contributions to Democratic campaigns, party organizations, and PACs during the 2019-2020 campaign cycle, including a $50,000 contribution to a pro-Biden political action committee.
Naftali has been at the Biden White House at least 13 times since December 2021, the Washington Free Beacon reported just months ago.
Those visits included a March 22 meeting with White House senior adviser Neera Tanden, who is now domestic policy advisor but previously served as Biden’s staff secretary. That is a gatekeeper job for any White House, republican or democratic administration.
Naftali also met twice with White House policy adviser Richard Figueroa, in December and September 2022.
White House logs evidence that Naftali was with 40 people inside the East Wing on Sept. 17, 2022. Most of the events she attended seem to be while in the presence of the president with hundreds of people in attendance.
President Joe Biden appointed Elizabeth Hirsch Naftali to an obscure yet prestigious board of the federal Commission for the Preservation of America’s Heritage Abroad on July 1, 2022.
Naftali was one of several who collectively spent a boatload on Hunter Biden’s art, as reported The Real Deal.

Family Members: Hostages Ate Poorly, Slept on Benches; Waited up to Two Hours for Bathroom by JOEL B. POLLAK
26 Nov 2023 – Family members of released Israeli hostages told reporters Sunday that the hostages had been forced to sleep on benches during their seven-week captivity; that they had to endure waits of up to two hours for the bathroom; and that they were sometimes denied food.
Who are the Palestinian Prisoners Slated for Release? By Baruch Yedid, TPS
Israel published a list of 300 Palestinian prisoners of whom 150 will be freed.
November 26, 2023 – Israel and Hamas are now exchanging lists of abductees and imprisoned terrorists ahead of partial prisoner exchange and temporary ceasefire brokered by Qatar.
Details of the agreement are being finalized in Doha and a formal announcement is expected later today. Until then, fighting continues in the Gaza Strip.
Under the terms of the ceasefire agreement, 150 Palestinian prisoners and 50 Israeli hostages — primarily women and children — will be released in stages over a four-day period.
Israel published a list of 300 Palestinian prisoners of whom 150 will be freed. Israeli terror victims have a 24-hour window to file legal petitions to the Supreme Court.
While some of the Palestinians aren’t associated with any specific terror group, many are affiliated with Hamas, Palestinian Islamic Jihad and the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine.
Under the terms of agreement, the released Palestinians will be allowed to return to their previous residences.
The agreement does not obligate Israel to release anyone convicted of murder, but several of the Palestinians in the list of 300 came close.
Released terrorists celebrated by Palestinians all over country By Pesach Benson, TPS
Palestinians celebrate the release of 39 prisoners, including affiliates of Hamas and other groups.
November 26, 2023 – Celebrations occurred on Saturday night following the release of 39 Palestinian prisoners.
Videos posted on social media showed Palestinians in Judea, Samaria, and eastern Jerusalem celebrating the return of 39 terrorists freed by Israel on Saturday night as part of a partial prisoner exchange with Hamas.
The 39 Palestinians are all women and minors.
National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir had instructed police to prevent celebrations from taking place in eastern Jerusalem.
While some of the Palestinians aren’t associated with any specific terror group, others are affiliated with Hamas, Palestinian Islamic Jihad and the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine.
The released Palestinians will be allowed to return to their previous residences.
The most notable of the freed Palestinians is would-be suicide bomber Israa Jaabis. She somehow survived when she blew up a car with gas cylinders near Maale Adumim in 2015. A police officer was injured in the attack. Jaabis made headlines in 2022 when her request for a nose job was rejected by the Israeli Prisons Service as a cosmetic procedure not necessary for Jaabis’s health.
In January, Defense Minister Yoav Galant revoked travel permits for three Palestinian Authority officials who participated in a celebration for the release of Karim Younis, one of the longest-serving prisoners jailed for terror. The three had traveled to the Younis family’s home in ‘Ara, south of Haifa.
Israel-Hamas war: Fight on Gaza ceasefire is with Israel’s mind, heart By YAAKOV KATZ
It is impossible to ignore that deals of this kind are Israel’s vulnerable and weak point, something our enemies can (and will) continue to exploit.
NOVEMBER 24, 2023 12:18 – Our strength is also our weakness.
That is what I have been thinking about the last week ever since the deal to release some of the hostages – for now, the women and children – became serious. On the one hand, Israelis are strong since they put the fate of the few – the hostages – ahead of the ultimate mission which is to eliminate Hamas. On the other hand, it is impossible to ignore that deals of this kind are Israel’s vulnerable and weak point, something our enemies can (and will) continue to exploit.
This deal is an argument between the Israeli mind and the Israeli heart. The Israeli mind looks at the deal with grave concern. Israel is stopping its military for at least four days which could easily turn into 10. Hamas will have the upper hand and will use the time to regroup, redeploy, and rearm.
For the last three weeks, the IDF has been moving through Gaza with a massive force, succeeding in achieving its goals of cutting off southern Gaza from the north and isolating Hamas forces in two areas in the south – Khan Yunis and Rafah.
It is not easy to stop a massive military force and once stopped, it is not easy to get it restarted with the same energy and momentum. In addition, with a lull in the fighting, Hamas forces will be able to move around Gaza freely and prepare for a future Israeli offensive. This will mean that if and when the operation restarts, IDF soldiers can expect tougher resistance.
That is the mind though. The heart, on the other hand, has no doubt that Israel needs to do everything possible to get the hostages back. The failures that enabled Hamas to attack Israel on October 7 are a stain on the prime minister and his government, on the generals in the IDF, and on the top operatives in the Shin Bet. Just as they are responsible for the failures that led to this, they are also responsible for bringing home the nearly 240 people they let down.
Most hostages are civilians
This is especially the case when considering that most of the hostages are civilians and not soldiers. They were people spending the morning of October 7 at home or at the Supernova music festival.
Hamas seeks to extend Gaza truce, Qatari officials visit Israel By TOVAH LAZAROFF
Qatar, which mediated the original hostage deal even though it has no formal diplomatic relations with Israel, sent an intelligence delegation to Israel on Saturday to discuss extending the deal.
NOVEMBER 26, 2023 22:13 – Hamas sought to extend the four-day pause in the Gaza war Sunday night, after it had completed 80% of a hostage deal that went into effect Friday, releasing 40 Israelis, one Filipino and 17 Thai citizens over the last three days.
A jubilant Israel welcomed 14 of those Israelis and three Thai citizens on Sunday, including Avigail Idan (4) who also holds American citizenship.
Hamas killed her parents in front of her in Kfar Aza during the group’s attack on Southern Israel on October 7, when terrorists seized some 240 hostages.
“We are moved to the depth of our souls,” Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said.
[Ed.: He does have a golden tongue, a way with words, doesn’t he! I miss his brother Yoni (his memory is a blessing.]
BREAKING: Prime Minister of Qatar says that more than 40 Israeli women and children are being held captive by unknown entities in Gaza, and not by Hamas.
According to the Qatari PM they “don’t have a way to locate them” and one of the reasons for the ceasefire “is to uncover their whereabouts”.

The Intelligence Failure of October 7 – Roots and Lessons by Amnon Sofrin
November 2023 [The Jerusalem Strategic Review] – Hamas’ sudden attack on the kibbutzim and the towns neighboring the Gaza Strip caught the IDF and the country by total surprise. During the first 24 hours, beginning at 6:30 in the morning of October 7, the Hamas Nukhba (name of the commando troops, means “elite”) and those who came in with them conquered and held an area of about 4-5 kilometers depth inside Israel, and in places penetrated well beyond that. The lack of any forewarning accounted also for the confused and disorganized, albeit often individually heroic, actions of the military and the police throughout the day.
What went wrong? How could Israel’s intelligence community have failed to “ring the bell”? To understand we have to analyze both the failure at the strategic level of analysis and the collapse at the tactical level of collection and detection.
The strategic level
Hamas’ leaders planned the attack over a long time and at an impressively high level of secrecy. We presume, based on what we know at this stage, that the planning for this operation began in 2021 and was carried out by Hamas leaders in Gaza Mohammed Deif and Yahya Sinwar with a small group of people. The planning was very detailed; each unit was assigned a specific mission with files prepared for each targeted community and military base.
While the Hamas units had no prior idea as to what their mission would be before the morning of the attack, they were trained on generic models of an Israeli kibbutz as well as on models of Israeli tanks, bases and other targets. They were also studying the points of penetration above ground, once the attack tunnels system (of which there were more than 30 in 2014) were put out of use. And yet these activities went on without setting off alarms on the Israeli side.
At the strategic level of analysis in the Israeli intelligence community, as well as among the political decision makers and the highest military echelon, a widely-held groupthink took hold: namely, that Hamas was adapting to the duties of governance. Thus, Israel was willing to make sure that the economic situation in the Gaza strip would improve – by allowing the monthly delivery of money from Qatar (in suitcases – since the Palestinian Authority blocked the use of the banking system for these transactions); and by allowing more people from Gaza to work in Israel. The governing assumption, which seemed to be confirmed by events, was that Hamas’ leadership would have no incentive to launch a new confrontation with Israel since it would continue to focus on improving the lives of Gaza residents.
Moreover, the prevailing belief was that the Hamas leadership was deterred from new attacks after suffering what the IDF claimed, perhaps too conveniently, were serious losses inflicted by the Israeli Air Force during the fighting in May 2021. This groupthink seemed to be reaffirmed when Hamas chose twice, in August 2022 and again in May 2023, to stay out of the fighting when the IDF attacked leaders of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad in Gaza, leading to short rounds of fighting. Hamas did not interfere, and Israel’s decision makers saw this as confirmation that Hamas was deterred and had no incentive to launch another major confrontation with Israel, at least for some years (given that seven years had passed between the fighting in 2014 and the Hamas rocket attacks in 2021).
Another aspect of the intelligence failure – which wove together the strategic level of analysis and the tactical level of collecting and assessing Hamas’ military capabilities – was the lack of knowledge and understanding of the remarkable improvement in Hamas’ ability to launch such an organized and coordinated attack, and the nature of the simple but effective devices it acquired – with help from Iran – in order to overcome Israel’s defenses.
Hezbollah Attacks, But Tries to Stay Out of Total War BY HUGH FITZGERALD
NOV 25, 2023 10:00 AM – In 2006, the UN passed Resolution 1701, according to which Hezbollah was supposed to be disarmed. It never happened. Now Hezbollah is stronger than ever. It essentially runs the Lebanese government; not Prime Minister Najib Mikati, but Hezbollah’s leader Hassan Nasrallah, calls the shots in Beirut. And thanks to Iran, Hezbollah has a storehouse of 150,000 missiles and rockets. Its arsenal is ten times more powerful than that possessed by Hamas.
During the four-day “pause” in its campaign in Gaza against Hamas that Israel has agreed to, the IDF could turn more of its attention to Hezbollah, stepping up its bombing campaign in southern Lebanon, to destroy weapons warehouses, enough airstrikes to inflict significant punishment, but not enough to cause Hezbollah to respond with a full-scale war, which at this point Israel would prefer to avoid. Once Hamas is destroyed, however, the Israelis may want to deal more forcefully with Hezbollah to degrade its storehouses bristling with weapons.
Since October 7, Hezbollah has fired at least 1,000 missiles into Israel’s northern cities. It has now been attacking Israel with missiles, drones, and artillery. Almost every night, there is an exchange of fire between Israel and Hezbollah. Six Israeli soldiers and three civilians have so far been killed by Hezbollah fire since October 7. More on this fighting in the north, which has escalated on November 20, can be found here: “Hezbollah says attacks Israeli troops with drones, artillery, missiles,” AFP, November 20, 2023:
The Israel-Lebanon border has seen daily exchanges of fire since the Israel-Hamas war began on October 7.
Hezbollah fighters targeted soldiers west of Kiryat Shmona in northern Israel “with three attack drones,” the Iran-backed group said in a statement, adding shortly after that it had also targeted troops in the area with artillery fire [on November 20].
Both statements claimed the attacks were “direct hits.”
Earlier Monday, Hezbollah said it had fired “Burkan missiles” at an Israeli barracks, and also claimed a number of other attacks on Israeli positions.
Israel’s army said “three UAVs (drones) were identified striking adjacent” to an army post, without specifying where. It added that “no injuries were reported.”…
Hezbollah said the three drones made “direct hits” on an army post and killed Israelis. The IDF said that the drones struck a site “adjacent” to the army post, and that there were no casualties. Which version do you believe?

[Ed.: Israel has been pressured into this hostage game, and by doing so, Israel herself is being held hostage by the enemy. The only path to victory for Israel is to get out of the hostage game altogether, and decimate the enemy population entirely. This most likely will not be possible since it requires Israel to overcome its fear of success.]
For Israel, Failures Never Learned and Lessons for Today By Alexander G. Markovsky
October 14, 2023 – As prominent Zionist Max Nordau once observed, “Logic is a Greek art, and Jews can’t tolerate it. The Jew learns not by way of reason but from catastrophes.” Although the circumstances have changed greatly since those words were written, Max Nordau’s wisdom as applied to Israel has not changed.
In 1947, Arab countries rejected a UN plan to partition the British mandate in Palestine into two states. Armed with British weaponry and guided by British officers, Arabs were convinced they could claim the entire territory by military triumph. If not for comrade Stalin, who supplied the Jews with weapons via Czechoslovakia and dispatched hundreds of seasoned Soviet officers and generals of Jewish heritage to Palestine, all of whom played a pivotal role in the formation, organization, and leadership of the Israeli army, including the air force, Israel would not exist.
In subsequent years, however (e.g., 1956, 1967, and 1973), after each decisive victory, Israel crawled back to the humiliated enemies, begging them for reconciliation and offering captured lands as concessions for peace and recognition of the State of Israel. The process was called “land for peace” and has resulted in neither land nor peace.
Nevertheless, despite these failed bargains and the ever-present and immediate threat of annihilation, Jews have fallen prey to the seductive illusion that peace can be bought. They’ve spilled much blood to achieve this lofty goal.
In 1993, Israel signed the Oslo Accords and accepted a new advanced form of “land for peace” called the Two-State Solution. This solution, widely supported by the West, was, ironically, an older concept the Arabs had rejected in 1947.
By and large, Israel had not learned the lessons of the past. Israelis continued repeatedly stepping on the same rakes.

Deal With The Devil: The Hellish Choice Behind the Hostage Hudna/Ceasefire “Will Bring Us to Disaster” By Pamela Geller
November 24, 2023 – Lest we forget, Yahya Sinwar (photo above), leader of Hamas in the Gaza Strip, was released years back in a similar hostage deal. Sinwar is the key mastermind of the October 7 onslaught in southern Israel in which at least 1,200 people were killed and some 240 were kidnapped.
Hamas Hudna Goes Into Effect as Hostages Are Expected to Be Freed
After declaring the deal “will bring us to disaster,” National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir criticized Israel’s war cabinet, which is made up of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Defense Minister Yoav Gallant and minister without a portfolio Benny Gantz, who joined the government early in the war in order to join the war cabinet. In addition, MK Gadi Eisenkot serves as an observer in the cabinet.
“There is another thing, and that’s the concept that guides the war cabinet… they talked about a deal of 80 [hostages], dropped it to 70, then dropped it to 50,” Ben Gvir said. “They said they wouldn’t let food enter, then after that, they said they wouldn’t let fuel enter, and now they have fuel.” Ben Gvir also slammed the cabinet for the decision made last week to allow limited but regular fuel deliveries to enter the Strip for the first time since October 7.
