74. So to recap...

Thu Aug 14, 2025, 10:11 PM

Thursday

- Hamas has agency

- October 7 was a genocidal event

- Hamas leader Haniyeh (who lived in the lap of luxury in Qatar) said on the record that "Hamas needs the blood of women, children, and the elderly of Gaza

- the confiscation of cans of a powdered substance found in people's luggage at a hyper-secure border crossing is SOP

- there was no formula in the bottle tiktoker awadbarbakh1 put in the baby's mouth

Oh yes, and

Hamas has the power to unilaterally and immediately end the war (which they started) by releasing the hostages, disarming, and surrendering.

And they've held that power from Day 1.
