Netanyahu and Trump to meet in DC as Gaza’s fate without Hamas is debated

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
President Donald Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu are set to meet at the White House on Monday. One of the most difficult questions on the table is what Gaza might look like without Hamas.
Experts tell Fox News Digital that while the need for an alternative is clear, almost every proposed solution comes with serious structural, political and security limitations.
John Hannah, a senior fellow at the Jewish Institute for National Security of America (JINSA) and veteran of both Republican and Democratic administrations, said building an alternative to Hamas must happen in parallel with dismantling it.

«Part of how you win is by showing there’s a viable alternative,» Hannah said. «People need to see there’s a future beyond Hamas»
That future, experts believe, lies in a non-Hamas technocratic government – comprised of Palestinians unaffiliated with either Hamas or the PLO – backed by a coalition of key Arab states, including Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Jordan and the UAE.
«While a new administration in Gaza should be independent, some symbolic link to the Palestinian Authority could enhance its legitimacy with the Arabs. Perhaps Ramallah could serve as a pass-through for paying salaries. But the PA won’t call the shots,» Hannah said.
«The default right now, if Israel ends up leaving Gaza, is Hamas,» said Ghaith al-Omari, senior fellow at the Washington Institute for Near East Policy. «There is no one on the ground who can challenge them. And there is no Arab involvement without the defeat of Hamas. Not just a ceasefire – actual disarmament.»

At best, said al-Omari who served as the former executive director of the American Task Force on Palestine, the PA might offer a «kosher stamp» to satisfy Arab states, which have made clear they will only intervene in Gaza under a Palestinian national umbrella.

«Without that symbolic PA invitation, Egypt and others won’t come in,» said al-Omari. «But they still need a political framework – some commitment to a two-state solution. Without that, they have absolutely no incentive to play a role in Gaza.»
Securing Israeli approval for any new Gaza administration is another major hurdle. An Israeli security official told Fox News Digital that any deal would need to include guarantees that Israel retains counterterrorism access to prevent Hamas from reemerging.
«Something like what exists in the West Bank – buffer zones, perimeter security, and the right of the IDF or Shin Bet to act on intelligence when needed,» Hannah said.

That framework, he noted, would require intensive American-led diplomacy with sustained presence and coordination.
«I can’t see anyone else but the United States doing it – there are too many inner-Arab rivalries,» Hannah said, «No other actor has the relationships, resources or trust required to bridge the deep divides between Israel, Arab states and international players. Everyone’s going to want the U.S. at the center of this. And there’s no doubt President Trump wants to solve it.»
«Qatar is the elephant in the room,» said Hannah, «They bring a lot of much-needed money, but they’ve had a deeply problematic relationship with Hamas. If they want a seat at the table, it has to be with strict conditions – money flowing through trusted, externally controlled channels. But they can’t be a key player in this effort.»
The United Nations, meanwhile, is largely out. «UNRWA’s days are over,» said Hannah. «They can’t run education or the economy in Gaza anymore. At most, the U.N. might endorse a U.S.-Arab-Israeli plan with a Security Council resolution – but they won’t play an operational role.»

AMERICAN VETERANS ATTACKED, INJURED WHILE DISTRIBUTING AID IN GAZA WITH US-BACKED GROUP
One proposal gaining quiet traction in Israeli and American circles is the idea of empowering local clans to establish self-governing enclaves.
Joseph Braude, president of the Center for Peace Communications, has spoken extensively with activists on the ground and believes this model could mark the beginning of an alternative.
«It may not be realistic to talk about one civil administration managing all of Gaza right now,» Braude said, «But in discrete geographical enclaves within the strip, you can pilot non-Hamas self-rule. Local Gazans patrol internally while the IDF or another force secures the perimeter. «
«There’s a fiber of educated, civically minded individuals in Gaza – from engineers to teachers – who are not Islamists,» he added, «If vetted properly, they can manage administration, education and basic services. But you have to start by identifying who they are and what they actually believe.»
Braude pointed to one such case: Yasser Abu Shabab, a local militia leader. «This is the first anti-Hamas militia to emerge in Gaza in a generation. He’s a local fighter from a Bedouin clan with family ties to Egyptian forces battling ISIS in Sinai. He says he wants to invite civil servants to begin staffing an administration.»

But not everyone agrees this is feasible. «These groups are fragmented, displaced and lack the legitimacy or cohesion to govern,» said al-Omari. «You might use these militias to secure aid deliveries in a specific area, but they can’t form the basis of governance.»
Dr. Michael Milstein, head of the Forum for Palestinian Studies at Tel Aviv University, told Fox News Digital, «Since the war began, several attempts to promote clans as an alternative to Hamas have also failed, like the Doghmush clan, whose leaders were executed by Hamas in early 2024.»
«Even now, figures like Abu Shabab in Rafah or the Barbakh family in Khan Younis are fringe cases,» Milstein added. «Hamas still controls most of the public space. Clans may offer localized solutions, but they are no cohesive or legitimate alternative. Many are openly loyal to Hamas.»

«Many say, until Palestinians teach their children to love themselves more than they hate Israel, there will never be peace,» Braude said, «That’s true. But who is actually working to foster a Palestinian leadership [that] does so? That’s the challenge – and the opportunity – right now.»

PHOTOS: Anti-ICE agitators dox agents by sending warning postcards to neighbors

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
EXCLUSIVE: Activists and agitators opposed to enforcement of federal immigration laws have found a new, intrusive way to dox or leak personal and identifying information of ICE and CBP agents, the Department of Homeland Security exclusively told Fox News Digital Tuesday.
Immigration agents continue to face an escalating 8,000% increase in death threats and a 1,300% increase in assaults since President Donald Trump took office in January 2025, according to DHS.
An ICE agent living in Wake County, North Carolina, was doxxed in recent days, as evidenced by postcards sent to the officer’s neighbors with language suggesting they needed to be warned of his presence on their block.
«Beware, your neighbor is an ICE agent. Immigration enforcement lives next door,» the postcard said in billboard-style font festooned with a generic image of a federal agent and a mock-up of an ICE badge addressed to a resident in Raleigh.
DEMOCRATIC OFFICIALS, TIKTOKERS, LIBERALS TAKE THEIR ANTI-ICE RHETORIC TO THE NEXT LEVEL

The message section of the postcard shared with Fox News Digital showed what appeared to be a still shot from CCTV footage depicting a Black federal immigration agent. DHS blurred the agent’s face, which was not blurred in the original mailing.
DHS Assistant Secretary Lauren Bis told Fox News Digital the doxxing only adds to threats because agents «risk their lives every single day to remove murderers, pedophiles, rapists, terrorists and gang members from American neighborhoods.»
Fox News Digital also noticed fine print on the doxxing postcard’s postage stamp indicating it was sent «presorted first-class,» a special subset of USPS business mail that requires the sender to mail at least 500 pieces, each weighing 3.5 ounces or less.
Presorted first-class also requires more than typical local «junk mail» granted presorted standard postage, which indicates at least 50 such letters or postcards.
That detail indicates that hundreds of such postcards were disseminated around the country.
THE FAR-LEFT NETWORK THAT HELPED PUT ALEX PRETTI IN HARM’S WAY, THEN MADE HIM A MARTYR
«Comparing ICE day-in and day-out to the Nazi Gestapo, the Secret Police and slave patrols has consequences,» Bis said Tuesday. «The men and women of ICE are fathers and mothers, sons and daughters. They get up every morning to try and make our communities safer.
«Like everyone else, they just want to go home to their families at night. The violence and dehumanization of these men and women who are simply enforcing the law must stop.»

The news comes weeks after identifying information for a reported 4,500 ICE and USBP employees was allegedly leaked by a DHS whistleblower to an Irish national who runs a website called the «ICE list.»
After the shooting death of Renee Good in January, Dominick Skinner received the massive dataset, The Daily Beast reported. The outlet quoted the website administrator as saying information about ICE agents’ identities flooded in.
Some people told him their neighbors were allegedly immigration agents, while hotel and bar staff reportedly sent him sticky notes, according to the outlet.

Skinner, who now lives in the Netherlands but has American family, told the outlet the website was not supposed to turn into a database but suggested it was a response to then-Secretary Kristi Noem warning people stateside they could be prosecuted for doxxing.
Anyone who receives similar postcards or paraphernalia doxxing DHS agents is advised to contact ICE’s tip line at (866) DHS-2-ICE or (866) 347-2423.

Las memorias de una feminista millennial sobre el poliamor pueden ser desgarradoras

Hace dos años, Megan Agnew, redactora de The Sunday Times en Londres, causó furor en internet con su perfil certero e inquietante sobre Hannah Neeleman, una exbailarina que se mudó a una granja en Utah con su esposo, tenía —en ese momento— ocho hijos y se convirtió en una exitosa influencer del movimiento tradwife. El artículo resultaba llamativo por la disonancia entre la historia que Neeleman y su esposo intentaban contar —la realización personal a través de la tradición— y los detalles que insinuaban una realidad más oscura.
“Daniel quería vivir en los grandes parajes salvajes del Oeste, así que lo hicieron; quería ser agricultor, así que lo son; le gustan las citas nocturnas una vez por semana, así que salen”, escribió Agnew. “No quería niñeras en la casa, así que no las hay”. Hannah bajó la voz al confesar que durante uno de sus partos, cuando Daniel no pudo estar presente, le pusieron una epidural. Habló con nostalgia de la carrera de danza que abandonó. Daniel le comentó a Agnew que, en ocasiones, Hannah se encuentra tan exhausta que pasa una semana en cama. En Instagram, algunos usuarios le pedían a Hannah que parpadeara dos veces si necesitaba ayuda.
Las memorias Adult Braces de Lindy West, que han generado amplio debate, evocan una inquietud similar, aunque con la política en sentido opuesto. West había sido una figura destacada del feminismo digital de los años 2000 y un símbolo de la positividad corporal; su anterior autobiografía, Shrill, fue adaptada a una serie de televisión. Pero detrás de esa fachada, revela su nuevo libro, sufría un dolor extraordinario, con relaciones distorsionadas tanto con su cuerpo como con su esposo. Aunque ahora afirma haber encontrado paz y empoderamiento tras acceder a la exigencia de su esposo de tener un matrimonio poliamoroso, su relato no resulta del todo convincente.

No sorprende que algunos interpreten “Adult Braces” como una crítica a las creencias progresistas de West. Un ensayo en The Atlantic sobre el libro llevaba el título “La muerte del feminismo millennial”. The Wall Street Journal declaró: “El progresismo destruye a sus siervos más leales”. Pero interpreté el libro de West como una advertencia sobre la autoanulación femenina. Esa tendencia suele celebrarse en sectores conservadores, pero siempre ha estado presente en la izquierda también. Prácticamente cualquier ideología puede utilizarse para hacer sentir a las mujeres que están fallando.
En textos anteriores, West presentaba su unión con el músico Ahamefule Oluo, conocido como Aham, como una especie de final de cuento de hadas feminista. “Mi boda fue perfecta, y estuve gorda todo el tiempo”, tituló una columna en The Guardian en 2015. Pero si la boda fue idílica, West revela en “Adult Braces” que el matrimonio no lo fue. Casi desde el principio, escribe, Aham condicionó la relación a que él pudiera acostarse con otras mujeres. Ella accedió porque no quería perderlo, pero sus aventuras la hicieron sentir una inseguridad insoportable.
Como West vivía en un entorno progresista donde la no monogamia es habitual, sentía una capa extra de vergüenza por no poder aceptar la vida sexual extramatrimonial de Aham. (“En ese momento, ser comprensiva con el poliamor parecía un imperativo creciente en los círculos progresistas”, escribe). Su angustia aumentaba por un fuerte rechazo hacia su propio cuerpo, que, según ella misma reconoce, contradice la imagen que había construido públicamente. “¿Crees que alguna vez sentí que merecía exigirle algo a un hombre?”, pregunta.

Para muchos lectores, incluido yo, parecía que Aham se aprovechó de la profunda falta de autoestima de West. Utilizó su ideología en su contra; West cuenta que Aham, que es mitad nigeriano, “creía que la monogamia era, en esencia, un sistema de propiedad”. No es la primera vez que un hombre de izquierda emplea el lenguaje de la liberación para traspasar los límites de una mujer. Tras la revolución sexual de los años 60 y 70, Ellen Willis describió cómo los hombres de la contracultura “intensificaron las ansiedades sexuales de las mujeres al equiparar la represión con el deseo de amor y compromiso, y exaltar el sexo sin emoción ni apego como el ideal”. Es un ideal que muchas mujeres sienten la presión de cumplir.
Pero West —o al menos la versión de West que narra “Adult Braces”— no logra ver la aparente manipulación de Aham. En cambio, el libro, que transcurre durante un largo viaje por carretera, describe cómo West aprende a aceptar el poliamor y llega a querer a Roya, la novia de Aham, con quien ahora mantiene una relación de tres.
Al final de “Adult Braces”, Aham, Roya y West viven juntos en una cabaña que perteneció a los padres de ella. Se declara feliz, aunque con un tono defensivo: “Si crees que me han lavado el cerebro y que en secreto soy infeliz, sinceramente no sé qué decirte”. Pero aunque se tome al pie de la letra su satisfacción, hay un trasfondo inquietante en la situación, uno que sería evidente si el libro fuera una novela y no unas memorias.

A lo largo de “Adult Braces”, West, que ahora tiene 44 años, hace referencia a sus dificultades con la adultez, en ocasiones con una voz deliberadamente infantil. “¡Solo soy un angelito suave que todos quieren!”, escribe en un momento. Describe cómo, al mudarse sola, le costaba cuidar de sí misma: “Cuando tienes 25 años, nadie se enoja si no limpias tu cuarto”. Le embargaron el auto porque olvidó pagar las cuotas. Cuando estaba deprimida, Aham tenía que obligarla a ducharse y a cepillarse el cabello. Se pregunta si es “una mujer que podría discernir sus propios sentimientos o un bebé que necesita que le digan cuándo divorciarse”. Uno de los mejores días del viaje, se tatúa la frase “good girl”.
West parece añorar el cuidado y la simplicidad de la infancia, y al final del libro encuentra una aproximación a eso. De niña, cuenta, quería vivir en la cabaña a tiempo completo, y ahora lo hace. Roya paga las cuentas puntualmente para que no caigan en agencias de cobro y mantiene relaciones con Aham cuando West no quiere. “Me encanta dormir en el cuarto de invitados y meterme en la cama con ellos en la mañana”, escribe West. “Me encanta cuando me arropan y me dejan jugar con el móvil hasta tarde”. Duerme con un gato de peluche. Es como si, sintiéndose lastimada, hubiera optado por retroceder a una etapa infantil.
Tras la publicación del artículo de Agnew, Neeleman grabó un video en el que decía estar sorprendida por haber sido retratada “como oprimida, con mi esposo como el culpable”, y aseguró que adora a su marido y la vida que llevan. Pienso que es posible creerle y también pensar que adaptó sus deseos a los de su esposo, como se les anima a hacer a muchas mujeres. Si West hizo lo mismo, no es culpa del feminismo millennial ni del liberalismo social. La política no siempre puede salvarnos de la necesidad autoaniquiladora de ser amadas, en los términos que sean.
