Europe
Jewish woman stabbed in France
[IsraelNationalNews] A Jewish woman was stabbed in her home in France on Saturday afternoon, Express reported.

According to the Express, the woman, reportedly in her 30s, heard the doorbell of her Lyon, France, home ring, and answered it.

The visitor, male and dressed all in black, with his face hidden,
...sounds like Antifa or one of the many related Black Bloc types, though it could have been a Muslim colonist or a neo-Nazi — they all want rivers of Jewish blood...
stabbed the woman twice in her stomach, a police spokesperson said.

Following this, the attacker fled the scene, Express added.

Police arriving at the woman's home found a swastika plastered to her door.
The swastika proves nothing, because two of the three groups find Nazis admirable, and the third is willing to create a false flag.

Gazookian in US Illegally Arrested in Houston For Plotting Attack on Jewish Community
Follow-up to yesterday’s story. Photo of the miscreant at the link.
[Gateway] A Palestinian man in the US illegally was arrested in Houston for a firearms violation. Sohaib Abuayyash, 20, was in the United States on a non-immigrant visa that expired in 2019, which prohibited him from owning a firearm, Click 2 Houston reported.
He’s a Jordanian Palestinian, actually, not from the Palestinian Territories. We learnt yesterday that he first came to America on a B-2 visa (tourist, unlimited entry) in 2016 for two months — when he would have been 13 — then returned in 2019, in his 16th year. I still wonder into whose care his parents gave the lad...
Yes, mischaracterized. He wears a keffiyeh, talks of killing Jews, and identifies as a Gazookian. Should read 'wanna-be' Gazook.
To be fair, it was reported that the second time he came, he arrived on a Palestinian passport, not Jordanian. Someone missed a step when checking his visa.
Sohaib Abuayyash was allegedly planning to attack Jews in Houston before his arrest. He had studied bomb-making and had affirming statements online about killing Jews.

Abuayyash had also been taking a detailed look online at radical groups that condone violence which included bomb-making.

A federal grand jury has returned an indictment against a 20-year-old Palestinian citizen for possession of a firearm by a prohibited person, announced U.S. Attorney Alamdar S. Hamdani.

The charges allege Sohaib Abuayyash was an alien illegally and unlawfully in the United States. He knowingly possessed a firearm, namely a Canik, model TP9 Elite SC, 9 mm pistol, according to the indictment.

The FBI arrested Abuayyash Oct. 19 who remains detained pending further criminal proceedings. He is set to appear for his arraignment Nov. 13 before U.S. Magistrate Judge Yvonne Ho in Houston at 2 p.m.

According to the criminal complaint filed upon his arrest, Abuayyash entered the United States on a nonimmigrant visa, which expired in 2019, and has allegedly been in direct contact with others who share a radical mindset. The charges further allege he has been conducting physical training and has trained with weapons to possibly commit an attack.

If convicted, he faces up to 15 years in federal prison as well as a possible $250,000 maximum fine.

The FBI is conducting the investigation.

Christina Bryan, who is a U.S. Magistrate looking at this case, ruled that he must be behind bars pending trial. Abuayyash has also talked about martyrdom and he expressed interest in going to Gaza.

Federal investigators found video of him firing weapons at a shooting range. The firearms violation gave the FBI a good reason to arrest him while they investigated the online activity he was involved with.

India-Pakistan
Militants Attack Air Force Base in Central Pakistan
[ENGLISH.AAWSAT] Nine bandidos holy warriors attacked an air force training base in the central Pak area of Mianwali on Saturday damaging three "non-operational" aircraft, the military said, adding that all assailants had been killed by security forces.

Three bandidos holy warriors were killed before they entered the base while the others had been cornered before the clearance operation began, the military said in a statement. It did not mention any casualties amongst security personnel.

The early Saturday attack startled residents living close by when volleys of gunfire broke the morning silence.

"I woke up at around 3 a.m. after I heard massive gun shots which continued till around 7 a.m.," Zeeshan Niazi, a resident of Mianwali, told Rooters.

The military said nine bandidos holy warriors had been killed in the attack on the Pakistain Air Force Training Airbase Mianwali. An earlier statement said that six bandidos holy warriors were involved in the attack.

"No damage has been done to any of the Pakistain Air Force's functional operational assets, while only some damage was done to three already phased out non-operational aircraft during the attack," the military statement said. It earlier said a fuel tanker had also been damaged in the attack.

"Due to the swift and effective response by the troops, (the attack) has been foiled and thwarted, ensuring the safety and security of personnel and assets," the statement said.

Islamist krazed killer group Tehrik-e-Jihad Pakistain (TJP) grabbed credit for the attack in a statement sent to journalists by its spokesperson.

TJP came to the fore only this year and little is known about the group, which has carried out a string of high-profile attacks in the country, including killing 12 soldiers at a Pak military base in the southwestern province of Balochistan
...the Pak province bordering Kandahar and Uruzgun provinces in Afghanistan and Sistan Baluchistan in Iran. Its native Baloch propulation is being displaced by Pashtuns and Punjabis and they aren't happy about it...
in July.

Report: Israel Stops ‘Humanitarian' Truck Smuggling Equipment for Hamas
[Breitbart] Israeli inspectors stopped a truck this week that was meant to carry “humanitarian” aid into Gaza because they discovered oxygen-concentrating machines that were meant to allow Hamas to ventilate its tunnels, according to the Times of Israel.

The Times of Israel reported:

Israeli inspectors earlier this week uncovered several oxygen concentrators meant to aerate the tunnels operated by terror groups in Gaza, two senior Israeli officials tell The Times of Israel.

“These weren’t for use in the hospitals, but below them. That’s why they were smuggled among boxes of cookies,” one of the senior Israeli officials says, adding that the entire truck in which the oxygen concentrators were found was barred from entering Gaza.



The trucks first enter Egypt where they undergo an initial round of inspections. They then are driven into Israel through the Nitzana crossing where they are inspected by Israel’s COGAT military liaison before being sent back to Egypt and driven into Gaza through the Rafah crossing, a second Israeli official tells The Times of Israel, saying the format was agreed upon after extensive talks between Israel, Egypt and the United States.

Hamas has previously used humanitarian aid for terrorist attacks:



Israel has agreed to allow aid into Gaza, but has said it will stop allowing the aid if Hamas seizes any of it.

Thousands attend pro-Palestine rally in Melbourne while police investigate Hitler posters in Sydney
[news.com.au] Tens of thousands of protesters have gathered to Melbourne calling for a ceasefire in Gaza and chanting ’Shame Labor! Shame!’

Record numbers brought traffic to a halt in Melbourne’s CBD on Sunday afternoon, marking the sixth protest against Israel’s war on Hamas held across Australia this week.

Rally goers were seen carrying signs that read ’Justice for Palestine’ and ’Albanese you can’t hide, you’re supporting genocide’.

Ugly scenes outside White House as anti-Israel protesters smear entrance with red paint
Serves him right. Next time don’t coddle them, Mr. President.
[Washington Examiner] Thousands of protesters descended on Washington D.C. on Saturday, converging outside the White House and demanding a ceasefire in the Israel-Hamas war.

Protesters, which were estimated to be over 10,000, carried Palestinian flags and signs demanding a free Palestine. After the scheduled march reached the White House, protesters sprayed red paint on the northwestern gate of the residence, even prying it open at one point.

Secret Service reported that it was able to stop any trespass beyond the gate "without incident." There were still protesters on the premises at the time of its report.

The protest was partially sponsored by by far-left advocacy group Code Pink, which recently organized a sit-in at the offices of numerous Democrats to demand Congress attempt to enforce a ceasefire. It ultimately led to the arrest of 52 demonstrators.

A vigil is also expected to place across the street from the presidential residence, in honor of those who have died. More than 9,400 Palestinians have died since Oct. 7, according to the Health Ministry in Gaza which is run by Hamas, while more than 1,400 Israelis have died. Among the signs was a banner several feet long that listed the names of Palestinian victims.

President Joe Biden has thus far rebuffed calls for a ceasefire, including from members of his own party. Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) has been particularly vocal in his criticism of Israel, as well as the Biden administration, accusing the president of backing "ethnic cleansing."

#11  The breadth and depth of the rhetoric and demonstrations reveal the long ignored level of Muslim penetration of our political, academic and media institutions. The obvious successes of the Gaza retaliation by Israel is forcing an overt demonstration of how significant this has become.

Bidet and the coalition behind the Puppet Show hate Israel, and will do all they can sub-rosa to damage it, but not at the risk of any domestic political damage.

At present, Israel seems to be losing the media/propaganda war in the West, despite the clearly justified causation. If this continues, the children over at Foggy Bottom will push for more Hamas rescue. At the moment, it is the propaganda war that is the strategic center of gravity for Israel.

Israel thwarted planned attacks on Israelis in several countries — report
[IsraelTimes] Israel has thwarted a number of attacks on Israelis in countries across the globe amid the war against Hamas
...not a terrorist organization, even though it kidnaps people, holds hostages, and tries to negotiate by executing them,...
, the Kan public broadcaster reports.

Citing a security source, the report says threats against Israeli and Jewish targets worldwide are growing, describing them as "very exceptional and extraordinary" in scope.

The source adds that some of the attacks are spontaneous, while others are planned by jihadist groups.

IDF says Hamas attacked troops as they opened evacuation corridor for Palestinians

to its south.

Earlier today, the IDF’s Arabic-language front man Lt. Col. Avichay Adraee announced that between 1:00 p.m. and 4:00 p.m. the Salah a-Din road would be open for Paleostinians to evacuate to southern Gaza.

The IDF says Hamas took advantage of the situation, and launched mortars and anti-tank guided missiles at troops working to open the road.

It says Hamas did so "in order to prevent [the road’s] opening for the movement of residents of the Gaza Strip."

No soldiers were hurt in the attack, the IDF says.

The IDF has already accused Hamas of attempting to prevent Paleostinians from evacuating northern Gaza, where the military has focused most of its Arclight airstrike
...KABOOM!...

One of those picked up in the clean up following the October 7th raid or one of those acquired in Gaza itself? Not that it matters — well done, Shin Bet!
Ground forces also battled button men in the Strip today, killing several of them, seizing weapons and intelligence materials, and locating tunnels, the IDF adds.

The IDF has struck some 120 targets in the Gaza Strip today, including Hamas compounds and anti-tank launch positions.

for the first time, providing some of the most up-close coverage of the ground operation to date.

The news hounds entered Gaza from the north yesterday afternoon in the Namer APC of Brig. Gen. Itzik Cohen, commander of the IDF’s 162nd Division. They linked up with the Nahal Brigade, which is operating in the al-Atatra neighborhood of Beit Lahiya, more than 4 kilometers inside the Gaza Strip.

Other forces from the division, including the Givati Brigade and the 401st Armored Brigade, are even deeper inside Gaza City.

The footage from multiple outlets, including Kan, Channel 12, and Channel 13, shows the troops coming under threat from a Hamas

drone. The troops seem extremely vigilant about drone-borne grenades, and succeed in shooting it out of the sky. Hamas footage from last week showed a drone dropping an explosive on a tight cluster of soldiers; officers are heard from Friday’s footage warning the journalists that they are not to group together and create a target for Hamas drones.

Nahal Brigade Commander Col. Yair Zuckerman tells news hounds that his forces found a massive tunnel shaft inside a mosque, with fake IDF uniforms inside. He adds that the brigade has come across countless civilian homes boobytrapped by Hamas.

Cohen says that IDF forces are not going into tunnels, but are destroying them together with the air force and combat engineers. Most of the tunnels in his division’s sector have been destroyed, he says.

He adds his troops are fully aware that Israeli hostages could be in tunnels and that the IDF is doing everything it can to find them, without going into detail.

The footage shows infantry, armor, and engineering troops operating together, with Cohen praising the cooperating between the ground troops, intelligence and the air force.

There are multiple shootouts every day with Hamas fighters who pop up out of tunnels, say the troops, including one in which 10 gunnies tried to ambush Nahal forces.

"We are meeting gunnies everyday, and have been able to destroy a large number of them," says Cohen, adding that Hamas fighters are "escaping backwards" deeper into Gaza City.

"We want to tell the people of Israel at home that what will save the people of Israel is not technology... it helps... but what brings victory is dedication and heroism," says a Nahal officer. "What we need going forward is that those at home will be able to absorb the fatalities, the difficulty, the pain, the sorrow, and will push us forward. We need that the people at home support us.... We promise to be strong determined and not to stop until Hamas is defeated."

There were no immediate details about possible casualties or the true extent of the damage.

Hamas Cries Uncle, Makes Desperate Hostage Offer-According to a new report, the terrorist government has offered to release all the civilian hostages it took on October 7th in exchange for just a five-day pause in hostilities.
[RedState] How do you know Hamas is on the ropes as Israeli forces continue to encircle Northern Gaza? Because they are making offers like this.

According to a new report, the terrorist government has offered to release all the civilian hostages it took on October 7th in exchange for just a five-day pause in hostilities.

Although the terms have varied in recent weeks, Hamas has indicated most recently that it would release all civilian hostages in exchange for a five-day pause, according to diplomats familiar with the discussions who spoke on the condition of anonymity about the sensitive matter. Israeli military captives, whose precise number is unknown, would be retained, possibly to eventually be offered in trade for Palestinian prisoners in Israel.
Except the Palestinians define all Israeli Jews as not civilian. Counteroffer: release all captives, military and civilian, living and dead, including the four for whom Israel has been negotiating for years, and then a pause can be discussed.
Sporadic, indirect negotiations are being held in Doha, Qatar’s capital, where they have waxed and waned depending on the tempo of Israeli strikes. With Qatari officials as go-betweens, the United States has been variously represented by Barbara Leaf, the State Department’s assistant secretary for the Near East, and White House and State Department hostage negotiators, diplomats said. Representatives of Israel’s Mossad national intelligence agency have also traveled to Doha. Ismail Haniyeh, Hamas’s top political leader, who lives in Turkey, has participated, along with former leader and current head of Hamas diaspora affairs Khaled Meshaal, who lives in Qatar.

rulers have suspended the evacuation of foreign passport holders to Egypt Saturday after Israel refused to allow some maimed Paleostinians to be evacuated to Egyptian hospitals, a border official tells AFP.

"No foreign passport holder will be able to leave the Gaza Strip until maimed people who need to be evacuated from hospitals in north Gaza are transported through the Rafah crossing" to Egypt, the official says on condition of anonymity.
The wounded are Hamas fighters. Of course Egypt doesn’t want them.
The official doesn’t give any information on the identities of the maimed. A senior US administration official said yesterday that Hamas has tried to smuggle its fighters out of Gaza among the maimed Paleostinians.

Human shields: Hundreds of terrorists from October 7 massacre hide in hospital
[IsraelNationalNews] The IDF since Friday has been focusing mainly on raids in the area of Gaza City, following high-quality tactical intelligence and in close cooperation with the Air Force.

Examination showed that the IDF has taken over Hamas' military intelligence, revealing much data, including terrorists who exited tunnel shafts and were eliminated.

The IDF said Saturday evening that most of the Hamas defense force is in Jabalya, Beit Hanoun, and Tel al-Hawa, where Hamas suffered serious blows.

In addition, the IDF revealed that 200 Hamas terrorists who participated in the October 7 massacre in Israel escaped into Gaza and are hiding in Shifa Hospital in Gaza City.

In some of the locations, the IDF is carrying out raids in the heart of Gaza City. Hamas' battalion commanders, who were eliminated, were a significant factor in Hamas' fighting abilities.

Since Friday, the IDF has struck 120 terror targets, and many terrorists were eliminated.

Syria-Lebanon-Iran
Reuters: A new powerful Hezbollah missile attack on Israel
Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited.
[Regnum] On November 4, militants from the Lebanese Hezbollah party attacked Israel with a powerful new missile that had never been used before, Reuters reported , citing a source.

“The group fired a powerful rocket, not yet used in combat, claiming that it hit an Israeli position across the border from the villages of Aita al-Shaab and Rmeish ,” the report said.

The publication also reported that Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) aircraft carried out strikes on Libyan territory. Residents of southern Lebanon called the attacks some of the harshest since the conflict began to escalate on October 7.

Hezbollah continues to shell Israeli territory. Party Secretary General Hassan Nasrullah on November 3, during Friday prayers, announced a real threat of a large-scale war with Israel. He also emphasized that Lebanese militants, by their actions, are constraining the capabilities of the IDF in the Gaza Strip, as they are forcing Israel to keep a third of its army on the border in Lebanon.

On October 31, journalists from The New York Times suggested that Hezbollah would begin a full-fledged war with the IDF only when Hamas was defeated. The Libyan group will have to intervene in this case, since it will not be able to remain on the sidelines, otherwise it will lose its reputation as a vanguard force in the Middle East, the publication noted.
