Israel turned off the lights in parts of Gaza over the weekend. They want Hamas to release 59 hostages still held there. Hamas called it “blackmail,” but Israel says it’s time to get tough on terrorism. This move shows Israel isn’t backing down, even with global critics crying foul. Some say cutting power hurts innocent families, but Israel argues Hamas uses aid to fund attacks. The world’s lecturing Israel again, but where’s the outrage over Hamas hiding behind civilians?
Canada’s got a new leader after Justin Trudeau stepped down. Mark Carney, a former banker, won big with nearly 86% of the vote. He’s promising to stand up to Trump’s trade war and keep Canada independent. “We’re not becoming America’s 51st state,” he declared. Conservatives might like his plan to scrap Trudeau’s carbon tax, but worry he’ll push green policies from his UN climate days. Can a banker fix a country tired of woke politics? Time will tell.
North Korea fired missiles into the sea Monday just as U.S. and South Korean troops started drills. Kim Jong Un’s regime called the exercises “reckless,” but weak leaders cave to bullies. Strong allies don’t back down. South Korea’s military stayed ready, though a recent training mistake caused chaos when jets bombed a civilian area by accident. Mistakes happen, but letting guard down invites disaster. The drills must go on—strength deters tyranny.
Hamas refuses to free hostages unless Israel quits Gaza forever. That’s a terrorist’s bargain. Israel’s right to say no. The U.S. talks directly with Hamas now, which some call risky. But when terrorists hold kids hostage, you do what it takes. Meanwhile, Iran’s Houthi pals threaten more ship attacks if Gaza aid stays blocked. Appeasing extremists never works.
Carney’s big test will be fixing Canada’s economy after years of Trudeau’s spending. He’s got Wall Street smarts, but can he handle Main Street problems? Trade fights with the U.S. could get ugly. Conservatives hope he focuses on jobs, not climate lectures. Trudeau wrecked the country. Now it’s cleanup time.
North Korea’s missile launches are a reminder: dictators only understand strength. Soft talk gets nowhere. The U.S.-South Korea drills protect freedom, even if liberals whine. Kim wants nukes to bully the world. Letting him win would endanger millions.
Gaza’s power cut proves Israel’s done playing nice. Critics scream “collective punishment,” but Hamas started this war. Israel’s duty is to rescue hostages and crush terror. The UN attacks Israel but stays silent on Hamas’s crimes. Double standards help nobody except terrorists.
Canada’s new prime minister faces a divided nation. Will he unite Canadians or push lefty dreams? Conservatives must hold him accountable. Trade wars, high taxes, and woke policies hurt families. It’s time for common sense, not globalist experiments. The world’s watching—will Carney deliver?
