As the first phase of the Israel-Hamas cease-fire ends, Iran and its pawns are escalating their offenses in a clear test not only of Jerusalem’s will, but Washington’s.

The belated release of the remains of their mom Shiri —  after the calculated insult of turning over the wrong body —  also showed that Hamas had lied about her death as well.

On top of the ever-more-grotesque celebrations Hamas has made of every hostage release, this is all-out psychological warfare on the Israeli public —  and an obvious bid to turn the cease-fire’s second-round talks into a total impasse.

Since the Trump team pushed hard for this cease-fire, Iran and its proxies are plainly testing the new president: How much will he ask Israel to swallow —  how much pain, how many terror attacks —  in his quest for peace?

How closely will he hew to the Biden policy of pampering the Houthis?

Team Trump is talking tough on Iran and its terror proxies; Tehran is daring it to actually do something about it, clearly hoping Washington will blink.

But this administration knows these enemies will only keep upping the ante if neither Israel nor America responds.

For all President Trump has on his plate just now, we doubt turning a blind eye is on his list of options.
