![[UPDATED] – US carries out airstrikes in Iran](https://therightscoop.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/F-35A_fighter_jet-620x300.jpg "[UPDATED] – US carries out airstrikes in Iran")
Here’s what the media is not telling you about the new Israel-Hamas peace deal.
On Sunday, January 19th the new cease-fire will hopefully go into effect. The media is euphoric. A hostage deal, they say, has been reached between Israel and Hamas after 467 days of fighting and 459 days of negotiating. Peace is on the way. But Hamas disagrees. It says in a statement that the “deal marks a crucial turning point” in its “struggle against the enemy.” In other words, the cease fire deal is a weapon of war. And the war will go on.
What in the world does a peace deal that’s a weapon of war mean? More on that in a minute.
But first, CNN says that the deal concluded Wednesday June 15th in Qatar is an agreement to set “the hostages” free. It is not. It is a deal to set 33 of the 98 hostages free. In other words, it is a deal to leave 65 hostages in captivity.
What’s more, it is a deal with vastly unequal terms. The agreement says that for every hostage that Hamas releases, the Israelis will release 30. Yes, you heard that right. Israel will undergo the pain and the danger of releasing 2,000 Palestinian terrorists in exchange for 33 Israelis. Outrageous.
What’s more, on the first day a mere three Israeli hostages will be released. Three. The following week another four.
This deal would leave the remaining 22 hostages who are still alive today to be abused or raped in Hamas homes and in the dungeons of Hamas’ 500 miles of military tunnels. Negotiations to release these still-imprisoned 22 hostages and to hand over the bodies of the 36 hostages who have died do not begin until day 16 of the deal.
Now back to a ceasefire as a weapon of war. Iran’s Press-TV headlined a quote proclaiming that “Gaza has won.” The Iranian news outlet was quoting ”a Palestinian woman” who “wrote on social media platform X,” that “Gaza has won, Palestine has won, resistance has won.”
It’s important to note that “resistance” means perpetrating a genocide. It means wiping out the state of Israel, exterminating its Jews, then hunting down Jews all over the world.
But why would a ceasefire be interpreted as a military victory?
To understand that, you have to understand a basic concept in Islam, the hudna. And to understand the hudna, you have to understand Mohammed’s view of the world. Mohammed was not a prophet of peace. He called himself the “prophet of war” and “the prophet of conquest.” He commanded 65 military campaigns and personally led 27 of them. He is credited by Muslim sources for conquering an unbelievable 317 miles of territory a day.
Mohammed dictated perpetual war against unbelievers. Unbelievers like you and me. His goal was to put Islam in power over every nation on the earth. Allah had visited him, Mohammed said, and told him that all that is to the East shall be yours. And all that is to the west.
To achieve this global conquest, Mohammed preached the obligation of every Moslem man at some point in his life to join the holy war, jihad. To kill and be killed, as Mohammed put it. For a jihad that will end only when all the world is Muslim.
But that’s not all. Mohammed preached another concept, the concept of a hudna. A hudna is a ceasefire. Its purpose is to let the makers of holy war, the Jihadists, regroup, resupply, and rearm. Then, according to Hamas and to some Islamic scholars, Mohammed said these holy war-makers must attack.
But not until they are certain they have bulked up their strength enough to win. It’s been reported that Hamas is bulking up. And that Hamas has brought in as many as 7,000 new recruits.
Oh, and one more little detail, the Moslem fighters are allowed to break the Hudna and attack whenever they want. Just as Hamas broke a May, 2021, cease-fire to rape, torture, and kill 1,200 Israelis on October 7th, 2023.
So in the eyes of Hamas, the new ceasefire is not a step toward peace. It is a step toward the next phase of the war. A world war whose ultimate target is the Great Satan, the United States.
Or, as the founder of the Iranian Islamic Revolution, the founder of Hamas’ sponsor, today’s Iran, put it:
“Moslems have no alternative… to an armed holy war against profane governments. …Holy war means the conquest of all non-Moslem territories. …It will …be the duty of every able-bodied adult male to volunteer for this war of conquest, the final aim of which is to put Koranic law in power from one end of the earth to the other. …all other wars of conquest… are unjust and tyrannical and disregard the moral and civilizing principles of Islam.”

Howard Bloom of the Howard Bloom Institute has been called the Einstein, Newton, Darwin, and Freud of the 21st century by Britain’s Channel 4 TV. One of his eight books–Global Brain—was the subject of a symposium thrown by the Office of the Secretary of Defense including representatives from the State Department, the Energy Department, DARPA, IBM, and MIT. Bloom’s work has been published in The Washington Post, The Wall Street Journal, Wired, Psychology Today, and the Scientific American. Concludes Joseph Chilton Pearce, author of Evolution’s End and The Crack in the Cosmic Egg, “I have finished Howard Bloom’s [first two] books, The Lucifer Principle and Global Brain, in that order, and am seriously awed, near overwhelmed by the magnitude of what he has done. I never expected to see, in any form, from any sector, such an accomplishment. I doubt there is a stronger intellect than Bloom’s on the planet.” Bloom’s next book, coming out February, 2025, is The Case of the Sexual Cosmos: Everything You Know About Nature is Wrong. Harvard’s Ellen Langer calls The Case of the Sexual Cosmos “fascinating.” For more, see http://howardbloom.net or http://howardbloom.institute
