President Trump notes the ongoing discussions around the Gaza conflict are producing optimism. Qatar, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Jordan and Israel are all part of the regional discussion group.
PRESIDENT TRUMP – “I am pleased to report that we are having very inspired and productive discussions with the Middle Eastern Community concerning Gaza. Intense negotiations have been going on for four days and will continue for as long as necessary in order to get a Successfully Completed Agreement.
All of the Countries within the Region are involved, Hamas is very much aware of these discussions, and Israel has been informed at all levels, including Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu.
There is more Goodwill and Enthusiasm for getting a Deal done, after so many decades, than I have ever seen before. Everyone is excited to put this period of Death and Darkness behind them. It is an Honor to be a part of this Negotiation. We must get the Hostages back and get a PERMANENT AND LONGLASTING PEACE!” {link}
Interestingly, it looks like Mark Levin is on the outside looking in.
Turkish President Recep Erdogan is the figurative head of the Muslim Brotherhood. As the gatekeeper between the Middle East and Europe, Turkey sits at the center of multiple issues, and Recep Erdogan uses his position as gate guard to his favor. If Europe tries to pressure him, he opens the gates. Europe has stopped trying to pressure Erdogan.
A rather curious NATO membership underpins the strategic influence of Erdogan and Turkey. While simultaneously Turkey maintains positive relationships with Russia and is not a member of the sanction regime against Vladimir Putin. The careful strategy has resulted in massive economic gains for Turkey, and Istanbul now stands as the gateway hub between East and West.
President Erdogan is a strong and ruthless leader openly supporting the political arm of Islam known as the Muslim Brotherhood. Erdogan also maintains close ties with Qatar. Turkey knows how to play all sides to their best interest. Erdogan also reads and speaks fluent English, though you’d never know it when the cameras turn on. WATCH:
Tucker Carlson’s team have been investigating the events of 9/11. Today they release the first segment of a multi-phase docuseries.
A former FBI agent who was embedded in the CIA’s Bin Laden unit, Mark Rossini, claims the CIA was fully aware that the 9/11 hijackers were in the United States planning an attack. Rather than inform the FBI, the CIA tried to recruit two of the hijackers for a “false-flag” operation, which quickly spiraled out of control. The failed mission raises urgent questions about government secrecy, intelligence failures, and what really happened before 9/11.
Below is the full interview between CBS’s Margaret Brennan and French President Emmanuel Macron. A portion of this interview aired on “Face the Nation”, however this is the complete interview.
Earlier today the U.K, Canada and Australia, 3 of the Five-Eyes western intelligence networks, announced their recognition of a Palestinian state. France will announce the same tomorrow. Israel is now slightly more vulnerable and in a diminished position of support from the western allied nations. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is more dependent on support from the U.S. than ever before.
President Macron is also facing significant domestic opposition, and his prior appointed Prime Ministers have failed and been removed. The French economy is struggling, and Macron has deflected attention to the Ukraine war in an effort to avoid domestic accountability. With the Ukraine vs Russia conflict taking a lower profile, thanks in part to President Trump’s approach – demanding NATO/EU stop purchasing Russian energy products in order to gain U.S. support for increased sanctions, Macron now shifts attention to the Israel-Hamas war.

[Transcript] – MARGARET BRENNAN: Okay, Mr. President, if you’re ready, we’ll dive right in.
PRESIDENT EMMANUEL MACRON: Thank you.
MARGARET BRENNAN: Thank you for having us here. You know, most countries in the world recognize Palestinian statehood. It’s 147 of 193 countries at the UN, but France is going to be the first western UN Security Council member to do so. What conditions are there for this?
PRESIDENT MACRON: Look, thank you, and thank you for being here and offering me the opportunity to have such a discussion. I think it was a necessity first to decide this recognition, and I will announce it on the 22nd of September at the United Nations, precisely because we are at the very moment where if we want peace and security for all in the region, we have to preserve the condition of a political perspective for everybody. So we will announce the recognition, but which is the beginning of a political process and a peace and security plan for everybody. So right after this- this recognition, we have a first phase, which is, I would say, the emergency phase, ceasefire, release of all hostages..and third, restoring the humanitarian roads and the stabilization of Gaza. We have a second package, which is the day after we will revert on that how to organize Gaza in terms of governance, security and reconstruction. And third package, the perspective of the two states. But recognizing the Palestinian state today is the only way to provide a political solution to a situation which has to stop.
“The Israeli air force conducted a precision strike against Hamas leaders who were involved in terror attacks against Israel and are directly responsible for the October 7 attacks,” the IDF and the Shin Bet intelligence service said in a statement.
The IDF added: “Prior to the attack, steps were taken to minimize harm to non-combatants, including the use of precision munitions and additional intelligence information. The IDF and the Shin Bet will continue to act with determination to defeat the Hamas terrorist organization responsible for the October 7 massacre.”
SUMMARY: Israel attacked the capital of Qatar, and is waiting to see if the assassination attempts succeeded • An Israeli source said: “We attacked the top echelons of the terrorist organization” • The United States was updated before the attack, a senior White House official: “We had no ability to influence” • Qatar condemned the Israeli action: “Cowardly attack”, the UAE was also visited by “treachery” (Source, Translated)
Once again, the narratives of the professional fake-news media collapse.
For several days the media has been saying the Trump administration FBI targeted John Bolton, hence the FBI raid on his home and office. However, the New York Times now outlines how the investigation into John Bolton began during the Biden administration and picked up speed after they received access to his email information from an “adversarial country’s spy service.”
Apparently, John Bolton used an unclassified email system to send information to his friends and allies. The emails were intercepted. Bolton was discussing information that appears to have been the outcome of his access to classified information as National Security Advisor.
CTH has previously outlined how John Bolton’s business model was essentially selling information and influence. This common DC business model seems to have formed the baseline for him to share sensitive, possibly classified information, of greater value. This does not come as a surprise.
Selling information is the currency of affluence in Washington DC. That’s why the removal of security clearances is looked upon as devastating within the beltway. New York Times story below:
Earlier this morning President Donald Trump welcomed British Prime Minister Keir Starmer to Turnberry, Scotland where the two leaders will hold bilateral discussions on trade and foreign affairs.
The video is prompted to 16:20. The bagpipes stop eventually in the video at 19:30. President Trump and Prime Minister Starmer take questions from the assembled press pool. President Trump calls out the British government for rampant illegal immigration, as Starmer tries to say his govt is deporting illegal migrants back to their home country.
Questions centered heavily around the Israeli conflict with Hamas in Gaza. The plight of the Palestinians is a key focus point for the British people; an outcome of the mass Islamic migration that has taken place for the past two-decades in Great Britain. The population of Islamists in the U.K now drives the political priorities.
Toward the end of the video 28:00, President Trump notes the Russia/Ukraine conflict has led to a “disappointment in Vladimir Putin,” and a possibility that President Trump will reduce the 50-day deadline he gave to Russia. WATCH:
The majority of politicians within Great Britain want to expand the conflict with Russia as much as possible and bring the full NATO contingent into the war against Russia. President Trump has been reluctant to support expanded war as requested by the British, French and German group who formed a “coalition of the willing.”
In addition to London being the Jihad capital of the region, Great Britain is also the home of the Fabian Socialists.
Secretary of State Marco Rubio has pushed America-First, anti-terrorism, law and order into the center of the tourist visitor filter. Unstable extremists need not apply for visas to enter the USA, and anyone creating a social disturbance is subject to visa cancellation.
This is the same standard of behavior that is applied by all other countries for U.S. tourists in foreign visits; however, as Marco Rubio and the U.S. State Department enforce this expectation the domestic extremists and agitators are extremely agitated.
The latest example comes from a British punk/rap duo who decry American colonialism, profess severe antisemitism and promotion of violence. Recently, during a music festival in Britain, singer Bobby Vylan shouted, “Death, death to the IDF,” several times before turning the microphone toward the crowd to get attendees to repeat the chant. The IDF is the national military of Israel. Additionally, Vylan shouted “Free, Free, Free Palestine,” and again, had some in the crowd repeat what he said.
The State Dept has now cancelled their entry visa for their U.S. tour.
(Via Politico) – The State Department has revoked visas for a London-based punk duo set to tour the U.S. in October after the band led a crowd of festival-goers in England in calling for the death of the Israeli military over the weekend.
Last night on CNBC Presidential Envoy Steve Witkoff hinted that some stunning revelations around expansion of the Abraham Peace Accords would likely surface in the next week. Immediately thereafter, President Trump sent a message of support for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, against a judicial effort targeting the Prime Minister.
Today, we start to hear of some rather stunning developments in the region that might explain multiple background stories, including the above and the severity of response from President Trump when he felt that Israel was overreacting to the Iran missile fired during the early hours of the ceasefire.
In a stunning development, Israel Hayom is reporting on the outlines of a peace agreement and long-term solution for the Israel-Gaza conflict. The report might explain why President Trump made bold moves in Syria recently, including the removal of all U.S./western sanctions and the close relationship between Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman (MbS).
According to Israel Hayom, there was a 4-way call (Trump, Netanyahu, Rubio, Dermer) after the Iran strikes. President Trump and Benjamin Netanyahu agreed to “fundamental principles in general terms” including:
♦ “Gaza hostilities will conclude within two weeks.” ♦ “Four Arab nations (including Egypt and the UAE) will administer the Gaza Strip, replacing the murderous Hamas terrorist organization.” ♦ “The remaining Hamas leadership will face exile to other countries (possibly Qatar and Turkey), while the hostages gain freedom.” ♦ “Multiple nations globally will accept numerous Gaza inhabitants seeking emigration.” ♦ “Abraham Accords expansion will bring Syria, Saudi Arabia, and additional Arab and Muslim countries to recognize Israel and establish official relationships.” ♦ “Israel will declare its willingness for future Palestinian conflict resolution under the ‘two states’ concept, contingent upon the Palestinian Authority reforms.” ♦ “The United States will acknowledge limited Israeli sovereignty implementation in Judea and Samaria.”
President Trump was reportedly angered by Israeli strikes after his Iran ceasefire announcement, because he feared further hostilities would derail this complicated deal.
It’s all right there for those who have eyes to see and do not pretend.
Chopper Pressers are the best pressers. Departing the White House President Trump leads off his initial remarks by saying. … “And I’m talking directly to Israel right now”… “I’m not happy with Israel, I’m not happy at all.” President Trump repeats.
President Trump is speaking about the increased fire the Israeli government conducted, as soon as the ceasefire was announced, and again talking about the ongoing retaliation fire that Israel is taking right now to a single Iran rocket that missed any Israeli target. “Israel needs to calm down,” he continued.
Then, to drive home the point and express his frustration, President Trump says, “we basically have two countries that have been fighting so long and so hard, that they don’t know WHAT THE FUCK THEY’RE DOING! Do you understand that?” He then turns his back in disgust and walks away. WATCH:

This week wasn’t just about stopping Iran. It was also about taking Israel’s “Iran has nukes!” card off the table.
