Sir Keir: "Lasting Ceasefire in Gaza".
We have all been horrified by the Hamas attack on Israelis on October 7. Where Hamas killed 1,200 Israelis and took many hostage. We knew Israel being Israel, would hit back. However, many have been and are taken aback by how hard Israel has hit back. Killing 28,000 civilians, taking out churches and mosques, medical facilities, education facilities, etc. Killing it seems, very few Hamas fighters. 300 or so IDF soldiers are dead with countless others injured. Hamas no doubt, has been and will be decimated, however, it remains intact.

Netanyahu: Will He, Won't He?
The IDF stand on the threshold of entering Rafah, the last major city in Gaza. This city is right up against the border with Egypt. Egypt has stationed tanks and armoured personnel carriers on its side of the border. Just in case, Gazans including Hamas leaders and operatives, try to flee into Egypt. Also, just in case, the Israelis pursue their prey across the border.

Trump: Pay or We Will Not Defend You.
Donald Trump is still repeating his mantra that members of The Transatlantic Treaty Organisation (NATO) should pay their way. Trump told a meeting in South Carolina that NATO nations should pay 2 % of GDP towards their protection. It sounds a bit like the Mafia asking for protection money or else!

Egypt Puts Tanks on Border.
Egypt has been busy while Israel has been levelling Gaza. Egypt has been building a reinforced wall on the border with Gaza. As Israel is now prepping to attack Rafah (the supposed last bastion of Hamas) Egypt has also put tanks and armoured personnel carriers on the border with Gaza. Rafah is the last major city in Gaza before you enter Egypt. The Egyptians do not want streams of Palestinians entering their territory. Hence their building a wall and putting their military equipment on the border. Egypt does not want Hamas operatives seeking refuge in its country. It also wants Gazans to stay in Gaza. It does not want Palestinians to be pushed out of their land. If they are then they would be Egypt's responsibility.

Has Labour Lost The Muslim Vote?
Keir Starmer has said Israel has the right to defend itself. Keir Starmer has a very good relationship with the Jewish community. Mr. Starmer's wife is Jewish and Mr. Starmer attends Friday Night 'Shabat' Dinners. So, Sir Keir will be very pro-Jewish and pro-Israel, so what is wrong with that, one might ask? Well, nothing really, Sir Keir has the right to hold whatever views he wishes!
