The pursuit of modern warfare often is highly dependent on tech, including access to the internet, and now, according to an announcement by Israel, Hamas’ access to the web in its Gaza territory is about to be seriously limited.
A report from NBC News explains how Shlomo Karhi, the minister of communications for Elon Musk’s satellite-based portal, Starlink, said the services will now be “formally” limited.
NBC explained, “Palestinians in Gaza have experienced severe telecommunications blackouts since the war began, with the area’s largest internet provider citing Israel’s bombing campaigns and fuel and electricity embargoes as the reasons. All broadband internet and phone calls in Gaza are routed through Israeli infrastructure.”
And now Starlink is going to have the brakes put on, the report said.
Musk had warned at the time of the Hamas terror inflicted on Israeli civilians that Starlink “will support connectivity to internationally recognized aid organizations in Gaza.”
But Khari, whose office approves internet licensing in Israel, said Israel would need to use all means possible to stop Hamas’ internet access.
The announcement came just as One America News was reporting Musk had visited Israel to view the aftermath of the Hamas terror.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu joined the Tesla CEO for a visit to Kibbutz Kfar Gaza, on the border with Gaza, where Hamas terrorists attacked, killed and destroyed on that Oct. 7. warfare.
The report explained, “Musk, wearing a bulletproof vest, joined Netanyahu and other officials for a walk-through of the battered community where 1,200 Israelis were killed in a single day by the Islamic terrorist organization Hamas.”
Musk also met with families of victims.
IMPORTANT NOTE TO WND READERS: Shortly after Hamas terrorists fired over 5,000 rockets from Gaza into Israel on Oct. 7 and then proceeded to attack the Jewish state by land, sea and air – torturing, burning, beheading and murdering well over a thousand people, including women, children and infants, and wounding and abducting hundreds more – world reaction was, in its own way, almost equally shocking.
For after the biggest one-day mass slaughter of Jews since the Nazi Holocaust, what followed was an outpouring of celebratory demonstrations, unbridled Jew-hatred, deliriously gleeful support for Hamas and bitter condemnation of the nation of Israel. Not just in the Arab-Muslim world, but throughout the Western world as well, including all across America.
Why? What is behind the explosion of anti-Israel, anti-Jewish, pro-terror sentiment in the United States, where Israel has long been one of America’s closest friends and allies? Why are hordes of young “woke” LGBT demonstrators marching in support of Hamas – when Hamas wouldn’t think twice about binding and blindfolding them and throwing them off the roof of a tall building – as they routinely do in the Muslim world?
It turns out there’s one area of agreement that is so powerful, deep-seated and all-consuming that the vast differences between the deranged left and the murderous jihadists melt away into Kumbaya harmony.
All of this and much more is completely exposed in November’s issue of WND’s critically acclaimed monthly Whistleblower magazine, titled ISRAEL VS. GLOBAL JIHAD: How Jew-hatred, radical Islam and Leftism are pushing us toward World War III. Beyond a deeply insightful dive into why leftists are surging toward radical Islam – which hates and dreams of raping and butchering them – this Whistleblower issue includes fantastic articles by everyone from top Israeli analyst (and former Israel Defense Forces officer) Caroline Glick to Harvest Christian Fellowship’s Pastor Greg Laurie on the current war in Israel and biblical prophecies regarding the End Times … which he says are now upon us.
WHISTLEBLOWER is available in both the popular print edition and a state-of-the-art digital version, either single issues or discounted annual subscriptions.
