IT APPEARS Hamas has accepted President Trump’s 20-point plan for peace in Gaza.

We say “appears” because Hamas said nothing in its formal acceptance about demilitarizing, and it insists on a role in governing Gaza after Israel withdraws. Both points are key for Israel, the US, and the Palestinian Authority, which holds no love for Hamas.

The plan calls for security in Gaza to be provided by 5,000 Palestinians who’ve been training in Egypt in recent months, who will be joined by Palestinian police officers currently training in Jordan—which means there have been plans in the works for the handover of Gaza from Israel to Palestinians.

Per i24 News: The security forces will operate under the supervision and management of a Gaza Management Committee that will include 15 Palestinian technocrats, who will operate under the guidance of the Gaza Management Council, which will be led by Tony Blair, which itself will operate within the framework of the mandate given to it by the Governing Council, which will be led by President Trump.

Will peace last? We’re skeptical. Religious fundamentalists, especially Muslims, don’t give up their beliefs easily, and it’s their belief the land of Israel belongs to them. (The spiritual forces behind this belief are the focus of Derek’s 2018 book Bad Moon Rising and his forthcoming book War of the Watchers.)

Meanwhile, the UN is pushing for the right to fight non-communicable diseases, including mental health. That would give the UN and the WHO power to govern social media. Apparently, social media can make you crazy, so the globalists should be allowed to police mis-, dis-, and malinformation.

Thankfully, the US is not on board with this power grab.

Also: Pope Leo blesses a block of ice but is silent on the genocide of Nigerian Christians; the UK says marrying your cousin is AOK (lots of Pakistani Muslims in the UK, you see); and Trump’s social media team has fun with the US government shutdown.

Sharon’s niece, Sarah Sachleben, was recently diagnosed with stage 4 bowel cancer, and the medical bills are piling up. If you are led to help, please go to GilbertHouse.org/hopeforsarah

Are You A Charlotte?

Are You A Charlotte?

In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
