EmojiA new report documents the Brotherhood's strategy for policy influence, legal framework manipulation, institutional infiltration, and narrative control in Western society. 
On November 18, Governor Abbot designated the Muslim Brotherhood and Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) as foreign terrorist and transnational criminal organizations in Texas.

China has been found to be behind a growing number of anti-Israel demonstrations in America. It’s not that Beijing suddenly cares deeply for the Palestinians.

Led by Pramila Patten, the secretary-general’s representative on sexual violence in conflict, the delegation reviewed more than 50 hours of video, thousands of photographs, and dozens of independent interviews. Their report said the experts had gathered substantial evidence that Hamas raped and sexually abused civilians during and after the attack. They cited multiple locations — the Nova music festival, Route 232, and Kibbutz Re’im — where rape and gang rape occurred. An investigation by the Association of Rape Crisis Centers in Israel reached similar findings.

Hostage Update: 11 Israeli and foreign deceased hostages still in Gaza 
The bodies of Sahar Baruch, 25, and Amiram Cooper, 84, both killed by Hamas in captivity, were returned this week. At the time of Sahar's kidnapping, his brother was shot in the head and his grandmother was murdered with an axe. In December 2023, Hamas released a video showing three living elderly hostages, including Amiram Cooper.
The latest: Hamas tried to pass off partial remains as those of hostages 

FOREIGN INFLUENCES - There's an important new book being released in April, The Hidden Hand by Warren Kinsella, it documents the highly-planned and well-funded global propaganda campaign to delegitimize Israel and sow the seeds of antisemitism in the aftermath of October 7th.  America appears to be totally unprepared for the onslaught of political manipulation by foreign actors. Both the State Department's Global Engagement Center (GEC) and the Counter Foreign Information Manipulation and Interference (R/FIMI) Office were shut down, in December 2024 and April 2025 respectively. This week, Russia Today, RT, celebrated its 20th Anniversary as the Kremlin’s ‘Propaganda Bullhorn.’  RT is the Russian government’s most prominent and best-funded propaganda aka "news" outlet. The Kremlin is set to spend $1.77 billion on state media in 2026, with $388 million reserved for RT. While that sounds like a hefty sum, it pales in comparison to China's billions of dollars spent each year on influencers, propaganda, and suppressing and censoring dissenting voices. Iran does it too; though they publicly bemoaned their lack of success after pouring millions into spreading Islam in Japan.

ISRAEL
Under Trump's ceasefire/peace plan, the deployment of the CENTCOM ISF (US troops) is a condition for Israel's further withdrawal from the roughly 50% of Gaza's territory it still holds. The force is expected to focus on securing Gaza's borders with Israel and Egypt and preventing arms smuggling. But that all depends on Hamas agreeing to give up its authority and weapons, which the terror group continues to refuse to do. Meanwhile, Hamas is also refusing to return all the remaining hostages to Israel. While the ceasefire hasn't fully collapsed, Michael Oren looks at What If Phase One Were the Final Phase? https://claritywithmichaeloren.substack.com/p/what-if-phase-one-were-the-final
