Le Monde: Hamas, even diminished by 15 months of war, remains a force to be reckoned with in Gaza
Hamas has been significantly weakened over the past 15 months, with key leaders eliminated and its military capabilities largely destroyed. Despite this, it still maintains dominance in Gaza, as noted by former Israeli intelligence officer Michael Milshtein.
The ongoing conflict has altered the power dynamics, but the remnants of Hamas continue to exert influence in the region.
The Telegraph: Hamas must be eradicated. If it isn’t, this Gaza ceasefire is a failure
Supporters of Israel have criticized the Gaza ceasefire deal as a sign of Prime Minister Netanyahu's weak leadership. However, there is a belief that Netanyahu's ultimate goal is total victory over Hamas and Iran, with the current strategy potentially reflecting a broader military plan.
Hamas's agreement to release hostages is seen as a response to its deteriorating situation, including a lack of support from allies like Hezbollah and Iran. While the ceasefire poses risks, including the potential for Hamas to regroup, the focus may shift towards Iran, with anticipated support from the incoming Trump administration.
Times Of Israel: With hostage deal, Netanyahu is going all in on Trump
Negotiations for a hostage release and ceasefire between Israel and Hamas remain unresolved due to last-minute demands from Hamas and political tensions within Netanyahu's coalition. Netanyahu faces pressure from far-right factions, particularly Itamar Ben Gvir, who threatens to leave the government if the deal is finalized.
Despite public support for the deal among Israelis, Netanyahu's political future is at stake as he navigates opposition from the right. The dynamics have shifted with the anticipated arrival of the Trump administration, which may provide Netanyahu with the backing needed for future military actions against Hamas. Both sides appear poised to sign the deal, albeit with significant political implications.
Liberty Nation News: Biden's Unwanted Parting Gift to Trump: Rising Oil Prices - Liberty Nation News
President Biden has intensified sanctions on Russia's energy sector as the war in Ukraine continues into its third year. This move comes after previous efforts to balance sanctions with oil price stability, which have now shifted to a more aggressive stance, resulting in rising oil prices.
While the sanctions aim to disrupt Russian oil revenues, experts debate their long-term effectiveness, suggesting that Russia may adapt and redirect trade flows. Additionally, the sanctions may inadvertently benefit Iran as countries seek alternative oil sources.

The Western Journal: Senate Crones Pecking at Hegseth Ignore Devastating Study on Women in Combat from the Marine Corp
Pete Hegseth's confirmation hearings for Secretary of Defense were marked by intense scrutiny from Senate Democrats, who aimed to portray him as out of touch on gender issues in the military. Despite their efforts, the hearings did not yield significant damage to Hegseth's reputation.
Senator Kirsten Gillibrand challenged Hegseth's views on women in combat, but a Marine Corps study indicated that all-male units outperformed mixed-gender squads in various combat tasks. The hearings highlighted a tension between political agendas and military effectiveness, with Hegseth maintaining that women should meet the same standards as men.
