Gunman Yells 'Free Palestine' Before Deadly Wedding Shooting in New Hampshire

https://townhall.com/tipsheet/...w-hampshire-n2663700

A peaceful wedding reception in Nashua, New Hampshire, turned into a scene of terror Saturday night after a masked gunman entered the Sky Meadow Country Club and opened fire, killing one man and injuring several others. Witnesses say the attacker shouted “Free Palestine” moments before unleashing violence on the crowd.

The shooter, dressed in black and wearing a mask, stormed the venue during a private event where families were dining and celebrating. One man was fatally shot, and others, including a man hit in the face, were rushed to nearby hospitals. The chaos forced some guests to take cover, while others fled the building entirely.

Police initially believed there may have been multiple shooters, but later confirmed only one suspect was involved. The gunman was taken into custody on-site and charged with second-degree murder. Law enforcement continues to investigate potential motives, including whether the attack was politically or ideologically driven.

The incident has reignited concerns over growing domestic radicalization and politically motivated violence. Critics argue that permissive rhetoric and the normalization of extremist slogans are creating a climate where acts of terrorism are more likely to occur.

This latest attack comes amid an already tense political environment, raising questions about how long leaders will continue to downplay the growing risks posed by ideological extremism when it doesn’t align with the preferred narrative.

The Attorney General's Office said Hunter Nadeau, 23, a Nashua resident, allegedly shot and killed Robert DeCesare, 59, in an attack at the Sky Meadow Country Club in Nashua.

Investigators said Nadeau shot and wounded two other people, while several other people suffered other injuries as they tried to flee.

UK, Australia, and Canada Recognize Palestine as a State

https://www.breitbart.com/euro...alestine-as-a-state/

The United Kingdom, Canada, and Australia announced on Sunday they now recognize Palestine as a state, despite accusations that it would be rewarding the Islamist Hamas terrorists behind the October 7th terror attacks on Israel.

One day before the beginning of the Rosh Hashanah Jewish New Year celebrations, British Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer announced that the UK would recognize Palestine statehood. The move pre-empted plans from France to back the measure this week at the United Nations General Assembly meeting in New York.

Starmer’s telegraphed announcement was preempted by fellow G7 nation Australia and Canada, both of which announced Sunday they would also recognize the territory as a state shortly before Starmer’s statement.

Starmer initially laid out plans to officially recognize Palestine in July on a conditional basis, demanding that Hamas — the Islamist terror group behind the October 7th terror attacks on Israel in 2023, which saw over 1,200 murdered and around 250 hostages taken — disarm, release the hostages, and agree to give up control of Gaza.

Despite these conditions not being met, Starmer said on Sunday, “In the face of the growing horror in the Middle East, we are acting to keep alive the possibility of peace and of a two-state solution.

“That means a safe and secure Israel alongside a viable Palestinian state – at the moment we have neither.”

“So, today, to revive the hope of peace for the Palestinians and Israelis, and a two-state solution, the United Kingdom formally recognises the State of Palestine.”

Starmer denied that this would represent a “reward” for Hamas, saying that his push for a two-state solution would be the “exact opposite of [Hamas’s] hateful vision,” as it would ultimately require the terror group to give up control of Gaza.

Turning to Israel, the PM accused Jerusalem of conducting a “relentless and increasing bombardment of Gaza,” adding: “The starvation and devastation are utterly intolerable. Tens of thousands have been killed, including thousands as they tried to collect food and water. This death and destruction horrifies all of us. It must end.”

For its part, Israel’s Foreign Ministry said in response: “Recognition is nothing but a reward for jihadist Hamas – emboldened by its Muslim Brotherhood affiliated in the UK.

“Hamas leaders themselves openly admit: this recognition is a direct outcome, the ‘fruit’ for the October 7 massacre. Don’t let Jihadist ideology dictate your policy.”

Palestine lacks the fundamental aspects of statehood, such as clearly defined borders or a firm constitution and has not held meaningful elections in nearly two decades. Meanwhile, it continues to be a major sponsor of terrorism against its neighbour and top trading partner, Israel.

The move to recognise Palestine as a state will put Canberra, Ottawa, and London at odds with both Israel and the United States, with the Trump administration stressing its opposition to Palestinian statehood as it would be “rewarding Hamas” for the October 7th terror attacks on Israel.

During a joint press conference with Prime Minister Starmer amid his state visit to the UK this week, President Trump said that he has a “disagreement with the Prime Minister on that score, one of our few disagreements actually.”

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has also previously accused the UK and others of rewarding terrorism by setting out plans to recognize Palestine as a state.

In an apparent move to mollify anger from Washington, Starmer is also said that his government plans to announce fresh sanctions on Hamas. The sanctions will supposedly seek to increase pressure on Hamas to give up control of Gaza, to disarm, and to release its hostages.

You know, before they try to influence international politics of which they have demonstrated no real understanding, perhaps they should first try to get their own house in order. Clueless fucks.

Where is this nation of Palestine located? How long has it been there?
When a Nation is attacked and they defeat their enemies, the world says they have to give land back.
When in the last five thousand years has that happened? Madness!
Why don't they just give back the Golan Heights, who the hell wants the high ground?

America gave back, Germany, Mexico and Japan…

Not only that but we gave them money to rebuild.

There may be more but I think we are the only country to do so.

I heard today that Trump said Israel should NOT annex Gaza. Why in the hell would he say something like that ? That's the BEST idea I've heard so far.

So what the hell exactly is that about?

Opps, ok, Thanks !!

Britain’s Governing Labour Party Recognizes Gaza War as Genocide.

https://thenationalpulse.com/2...aza-war-as-genocide/

Britain’s governing Labour Party has voted to acknowledge that Israel is committing genocide in Gaza at its annual party conference, following the findings of a United Nations commission of inquiry. The vote, passed with strong backing from trade unions, embarrasses Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer’s government, as neither he nor his Cabinet has endorsed the view that Israel is acting with genocidal intent, and piles pressure on them to align with their party base.

The UN commission concluded earlier this month that there are “reasonable grounds” to believe Israel has committed four of five genocidal acts outlined under international law since the war with Hamas began in 2023. Israel has rejected the report’s findings, calling them “distorted and false.

”Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer and his Cabinet have stopped short of endorsing the genocide label, insisting that such determinations should be left to international courts. Israel is currently the subject of a case at the International Court of Justice (ICJ) in The Hague, where it faces charges of genocide brought by South Africa.

Deputy Prime Minister David Lammy responded to the conference vote by reaffirming the government’s position. “It must be for the ICJ with their judges and judiciary, and for the ICC [International Criminal Court], to determine the issue of genocide in relation to the convention,” he said. “It is not for politicians like me to do that.

”Lammy, who has previously described President Donald J. Trump’s Make America Great Again (MAGA) movement as a “cult of white supremacists,” did add that, during his tenure as Foreign Secretary, he had identified a “clear risk” of Israel breaching international humanitarian law. Consequently, dozens of arms export licences to Israel have been suspended, and targeted sanctions on certain Israeli officials have been imposed.

Earlier this month, Starmer’s government also formally recognized Palestinian statehood.

Hamas agrees to release all Israeli hostages outlined in Trump Gaza peace deal: report
Hamas says it will release hostages as part of Gaza proposal

By Alexandra Koch Fox News
Published October 3, 2025 4:14pm EDT

Hamas on Friday announced it agreed to release all Israeli hostages, dead or alive, as part of President Donald Trump's Gaza proposal, Reuters reported.

Leaders also indicated they were prepared to enter mediated negotiations to finalize the deal, according to the report.

The announcement came hours after Trump issued a public warning to the terrorist group, noting its leaders would be "hunted down, and killed" if the remaining Israeli hostages were not released by Sunday night.

This is a developing story. Please check back for updates.

They're just messing with everyone, their stock-in-trade is deception and death, nothing more or less is possible.

Let them release the hostages, then bomb the shit out of them.

Weren't all of the hostages supposed to be released by 1800 on Sunday? More delay and deceive, over and over again. Eradicate those animals by any means necessary. Collateral damage is tragic but unavoidable. If none is desired, then don't start a war.

They will not release all the hostages.

I came across this the other night.
He had to admit he was wrong about Israel.

Trump announces Gaza peace deal as Israel and Hamas sign off on 'first phase' of landmark plan

18:58 EDT 08 Oct 2025, updated 21:17 EDT 08 Oct 2025
By NIKKI SCHWAB, CHIEF CAMPAIGN CORRESPONDENT and ROSS IBBETSON, US ASSISTANT EDITOR and STEPHEN M. LEPORE, US SENIOR REPORTER

President Donald Trump announced Wednesday night that both Israel and Hamas had signed off on the 'first phase' of his proposed peace deal - a substantial step in ending the war in Gaza.

'This means that ALL of the Hostages will be released very soon, and Israel will withdraw their Troops to an agreed upon line as the first steps toward a Strong, Durable, and Everlasting Peace,' Trump wrote on Truth Social.

'All Parties will be treated fairly! This is a GREAT Day for the Arab and Muslim World, Israel, all surrounding Nations, and the United States of America, and we thank the mediators from Qatar, Egypt, and Turkey, who worked with us to make this Historic and Unprecedented Event happen,' he continued. 'BLESSED ARE THE PEACEMAKERS!'

Hamas plans to release all 20 living hostages this weekend, people familiar with the matter told The Associated Press, in exchange for roughly 2,000 Palestinian prisoners, while the Israeli military will begin a withdrawal from the majority of Gaza.

Trump later told Reuters that it's 'a great day for the world'.

'The whole world has come together on this one, Israel, every country has come together. This has been a fantastic day,' he said. 'This is a great day for the world. This is a wonderful day, a wonderful day for everybody'.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said the government will convene Thursday to ratify the deal and looked forward to the release of the hostages.

'With God's help, we will bring them all home.' Netanyahu said in a statement.

'I thank the heroic soldiers of the IDF and all the security forces — thanks to their courage and sacrifice we have reached this day. I thank from the bottom of my heart President Trump and his team for mobilizing for this sacred mission of freeing our hostages.

'With God's help, together we will continue to achieve all our objectives and expand peace with our neighbors.'

Hamas thanked Trump, as well as mediators in Qatar, Egypt and Turkey for the peace deal which they say provides 'the withdrawal of the occupation, allows the entry of aid and implements a prisoner exchange.'

'We call on President Trump, the guarantor states of the agreement, and all Arab, Islamic and international parties to oblige the government of the occupation to fulfill all the agreement's commitments, and not to allow it to evade or delay implementation of the accords.'

Netanyahu's office said that he and Trump spoke and congratulated each other on the agreement to release all hostages, which Netanyahu's office described as a 'historic achievement.'

According to a statement from the prime minister's office, the conversation was 'warm and moving.' Netanyahu thanked Trump for his 'efforts and global leadership,' while Trump praised Netanyahu's 'determined leadership and the actions he led.'

A senior Hamas official said the group has handed over a list of Palestinian prisoners who will be released as part of the ceasefire deal.

Zaher Jabarin, who oversees Palestinian prisoners' affairs, said in a statement the list was prepared in accordance with 'the criteria agreed upon in the agreement.'

He said the group still 'awaiting final agreement on the names,' and that they will be announced 'once the relevant procedures and understandings are completed.'

An Israeli official told CNN that they're preparing for Trump to visit early next week.

U.N. Secretary General António Guterres welcomed the agreement between Israel and Hamas late Wednesday while urging all parties to 'abide fully by the terms of the agreement.'

Guterres said that the U.N. will support the full implementation of the agreement and is ready to deliver more humanitarian aid to Gaza, which has been sitting on the border of Jordan and Egypt.

'I urge all stakeholders to seize this momentous opportunity to establish a credible political path forward towards ending the occupation, recognizing the right to self-determination of the Palestinian people, and achieving a two-state solution that enables Israelis and Palestinians to live in peace and security,' he said.

Earlier in the day, Secretary of State Marco Rubio had interrupted a roundtable Trump was having in the State Dining Room to deliver him an urgent note on the Gaza peace deal.

'I was just given a note by the Secretary of State saying that we're very close to a deal in the Middle East, and they're going to need me pretty quickly,' Trump told attendees.

It read: 'Very close. We need you to approve a post on Truth Social soon, so you can announce the deal first.'

At the same event, Trump confirmed reports that he would head to the Middle East as soon as this weekend.

He told reporters he would likely travel to Egypt , where negotiations are happening, but expressed an openness to traveling to Gaza as well.

Trump also has yet to travel to Israel during his second term.

White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt confirmed the trip in a statement, saying that Trump would visit Walter Reed on Friday to meet with the troops and receive his annual physical as he's 'considering going to the Middle East shortly thereafter.'

There, he would join special envoy Steve Witkoff and son-in-law Jared Kushner, who have been attending the talks.

Prior to Trump's announcement, Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi said that he had received 'encouraging' signs and hailed the support of Trump, whose 20-point peace proposal formed the basis of the talks.

Hamas too expressed 'optimism' over the indirect discussions with its foe Israel.

Trump's plan calls for a ceasefire, the release of all the hostages held in Gaza, Hamas' disarmament and a gradual Israeli withdrawal from the territory.

'The mediators are making great efforts to remove any obstacles to the implementation of the ceasefire, and a spirit of optimism prevails among all parties,' senior Hamas official Taher al-Nunu said from the resort town of Sharm El-Sheikh, where talks kicked off on Monday.

The terror group submitted a list of prisoners it wants to be released in the first phase of the truce 'in accordance with the agreed-upon criteria and numbers,' Nunu added.

In exchange, Hamas is set to release 47 hostages, both alive and dead, that the group had seized during the October 7, 2023 attack in Israel, when 1,200 people were killed and 251 were taken into Gaza as hostages.

Twenty are believed to still be alive.

Once the hostages are returned, Israel will free 250 Palestinian prisoners serving life sentences, plus 1,700 Gazans arrested since October 7, including all the women and children.

For every Israeli hostage whose remains are released, Israel will release the remains of 15 dead Gazans, the Trump plan says.

Trump's announcement of a deal comes one day after the second anniversary of that grim day, which kickstarted the present war.

This will be the third ceasefire reached since the start of the war.

The first, in November 2023, saw more than 100 hostages, mainly women and children, freed in exchange for Palestinian prisoners before it broke down.

The second, in January and February of this year, saw Palestinian militants release 25 Israeli hostages and the bodies of eight more in exchange for nearly 2,000 Palestinian prisoners. Israel ended that ceasefire in March with a surprise bombardment.
