Hillary Clinton warns US has let down its guard on terrorism since 9/11.
By Lauren Barry, Audacy, September 12, 2026:
“I worry a lot that we’ve let down our guard on counterterrorism, and I don’t say this to scare anybody or to exaggerate, but I think we are not paying enough attention to resurgent terrorist actions,” said former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said in an interview with NBC News’ Andrea Mitchell at the VOICES 25th Anniversary Symposium, an event reflecting on the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist attacks….
“When you’re more interested in building your ballroom than figuring out what the intelligence is coming out of Afghanistan – that is absolutely contrary to any kind of sensible decision-making,” Clinton said, referring to Trump’s controversial demolition of the White House’s East Wing to make way for a large ballroom.
Clinton also “accused the Trump administration of dismantling parts of the federal government, including within the State Department, that traditionally collected intelligence and evaluated these terrorist threats,” said NBC. With those cuts, she said we’re now missing crucial information from places like western Africa where extremism is taking hold.
“The administration cut thousands of jobs across the federal government last year as part of the Elon Musk-led Department of Government Efficiency effort, including at the CIA and the State Department,” NBC added….

Mahmood urged to ban Doctors Without Borders over ‘terror links’.
Shabana Mahmood is being urged to proscribe Doctors Without Borders (MSF) over its staff’s alleged links to terrorist groups.
September 12, 2026.
UK Lawyers for Israel (UKLFI) has written to the Home Office, Charity Commission and Fundraising Regulator demanding that it investigate alleged ties between Doctors Without Borders and Palestinian terror groups.
The pro-Israel lobbying group is calling on Ms Mahmood, the Home Secretary, to ban the charity in a manner akin to Labour’s proscription of Palestine Action.
Palestine Action was banned by the Government last year after officials claimed that serious criminal damage it had inflicted met the threshold for proscription under the Terrorism Act. The move made membership of, or support for, the group a criminal offence punishable by up to 14 years in prison.
A report produced by UKLFI, seen by The Telegraph, describes the alleged connections between MSF employees and terrorists, including the late Fadi Jihad Mohammed al-Wadiya, a Palestine Islamic Jihad (PIJ) militant.
Wadiya, a physiotherapist who was employed by MSF between 2018-22 and then again from Oct 7, 2023, was killed in an Israeli air strike in Gaza City on June 25, 2024, in an attack condemned by the charity.
Doctors Without Borders initially denied Wadiya’s involvement with the terrorist group, but on Feb 24 this year the PIJ published a poster naming him as a “martyr commander” and identifying him as “deputy head of its military manufacturing unit”.
Only then did Doctors Without Borders, who still have Wadiya listed as an employee on their website, edit their post about him to say: “On 24 February 2026, the Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) publicly stated that Fadi Al Wadiya had been a member of the group.
“MSF had no indication that Fadi Al Wadiya might have been involved in military activity of any kind prior to his killing by the Israeli Forces.
“If the Israeli authorities had any reliable information about Fadi’s involvement in military activity, they never shared it with MSF either prior to his killing or when we reached out immediately after he was killed to ask for clarifications around the circumstances of his death.
“We would never knowingly employ people engaging in military activity. Any employee who engages in military activity would pose a danger to our staff and patients.”
The report also raises concerns about Nasser Hamdi Abdelatif Al Shalfouh, an MSF driver who is accused by Israel of being a sniper for the Hamas Jabaliya battalion.
Doctors Without Borders has never addressed allegations of Mr Shalfouh’s involvement with the proscribed organisation.
In 2023, MSF UK raised £11.3m, and ring-fenced around £1m for projects in the Palestinian territories. In 2024, this amount was increased to £2.7m, according to research by UKLFI.
UKLFI claims that despite these sizeable donations, appropriate safeguarding measures are not in place to minimise the risk that money raised by Britons could be used to benefit people associated with proscribed groups.
A UKLFI spokesman said: “British donors giving money to MSF are entitled to expect the highest possible standards of vetting and due diligence, particularly where substantial sums are being transferred into territory controlled by Hamas.

Uri Kurlianchik: The New Mercenaries.
There is something people need to understand about Yuval Abraham and Rachel Szor, the producers of the anti-Israel propaganda films “No Other Land” and “Naza.”
They are not whistle blowers. They are not concerned citizens. They are not Israeli Snowdens or even Israeli Wallace Shawns.
If they were, they would have gone with whatever “evidence” they have uncovered to the authorities, or the press if they don’t trust the authorities, or some international investigative body if they don’t trust the press. They would have presented concrete facts and actionable evidence that would have led to prosecution, not insinuations that cannot be used in any legal way.
They would not have released a highly-stylized film in a foreign film festival to the thunderous applause of Israel’s foreign enemies. They would not have produced a dramatic story where faceless, nameless people who, for all we know might be actors, read lines seemingly written by al-Mayadeen and Al-Jazeera with no sources or attributions.
Yuval claims that exposing state actions is a moral responsibility for Israelis, but he and his accomplices didn’t expose anything. Is there a single person that can be prosecuted based on his tall tales? These are not witness testimonies, it’s not even hearsay. Any judge in the world would have laughed him out of court with this “evidence.”
No. Except for giving ammunition to Israel’s enemies, he and his accomplice have done nothing.
They are not even Kapos, because Kapos acted under duress against their own people to save their families and lives, not for clout and profit.
People like Yuval and Szor are mercenaries funded by Israel's enemies to damage the country during war. Even the great champions of free speech, the United States, don’t tolerate unregistered foreign agents acting against Americans on American territory.
So why does Israel?
And make no mistake.
Everything about this movies is foreign. The production companies are foreign. The country of origin is foreign. The release is foreign.
These are not Israeli films. These are foreign, anti-Israel films wearing Israeli creators like a fig leaf.
They are being paid to give credence to anti-Israel propaganda by giving it the "validation" of an Israeli voice. They are astroturfed Solzhenitsyns. They are international Quislings. They are collaborators in a foreign anti-Israel operation.
Contrary to their claims, there is nothing Jewish about what they are doing.
Fun fact: the Venice Film Festival awarded a gold medal to Leni Riefenstahl's Nazi propaganda film "the Triumph of Will" in 1935 and the best film award to her Nazi propaganda film "Olympia" in 1938. Sadly, we don't know for how long they applauded both films. [pic.twitter.com/Uwxlhyu5aS].

Bassam Tawil: The Palestinians' Dead-End Choice: Fatah or Hamas
Both Hamas and the Palestinian Authority [PA] owe the Palestinian people – as well as Israelis and other victims – countless apologies. They owe apologies for corruption and mismanagement. They owe apologies for failing to build transparent and accountable institutions. They owe apologies for suppressing dissent and freedom of expression and for persecuting political opponents, journalists, human rights activists, and critics. They owe apologies for repeatedly rejecting compromises and peace initiatives and for policies that have contributed to decades of Israeli and Palestinian bloodshed. They owe apologies for failing to use international assistance to build a functioning economy and institutions that serve ordinary Palestinians. They owe their people an honest explanation for why Palestinians remain divided between two rival governments and without a functioning democratic political system.
The timing of this latest dispute is particularly significant.
Hamas has decided to participate [in the upcoming PA elections on November 28]... if true, such an arrangement would allow Hamas to re-enter Palestinian politics through the back door.
So, instead of changing its goals – brutally ruling Gaza and destroying Israel – Hamas will simply change its "name, structure and framework"?
Changing the label does not change the organization. A Hamas-affiliated candidate does not cease to be affiliated with Hamas simply because the word "Hamas" does not appear next to his name on the ballot.
Such a maneuver would turn the election into a political fiction: Hamas would be permitted to obtain parliamentary representation while avoiding the political consequences of openly running as Hamas. Allowing Hamas— in disguise or not – to run in the election would also legitimize the terrorist group without requiring it fundamentally to change.
That would be a serious mistake. The Palestinians have already seen what happens when Hamas acquires political power.
Hamas is bad, but who said that the PA is any better?
Palestinians have experienced corruption, political repression, and an absence of meaningful political renewal.
The problem is: What if one of the negotiating parties decides never to come to the table? Is the other party just supposed to hold everything in abeyance – unsettled forever – in case one day the other party might change its mind?
The Palestinians need a genuine third way – not merely another faction with a different name. They need leaders who are prepared to challenge the entrenched political culture of Fatah and Hamas. They need leaders who believe that the Palestinian national interest is more important than factional interests. They need leaders willing to confront corruption, reject authoritarianism, protect freedom of expression, build functioning institutions, and end the glorification of violence.
Above all, Palestinians need leaders courageous enough to tell their people an uncomfortable truth: there can be no genuine progress so long as the political choice remains confined to Fatah and Hamas, and that the primary objective of both groups remains the obliteration of Israel.

Netanyahu confirms New York trip for UN General Assembly, to address UN on September 24.
Sep 14, 2026.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will travel to the United States on September 23 to attend the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) in New York, the Prime Minister's Office announced Monday.
The visit will take place on September 23-25, following Yom Kippur and ahead of the Sukkot holiday.
Netanyahu is expected to address the General Assembly on Thursday, September 24.
The prime minister last visited New York for the 80th UNGA in September 2025, before New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani was elected, when he delivered an address denouncing Western countries for embracing Palestinian statehood.
"You know what message the leaders who recognize the Palestinian state this week sent to the Palestinians? It’s a very clear message: murdering Jews pays off,” Netanyahu told the 80th UNGA.

Trusting your audience: What NAZA could learn from Fauda's latest season - editorial
Israeli self-criticism has never been absent from Israeli culture. Fauda itself is proof.
JPost Editorial. September 15, 2026.
Two Israeli productions arrived before global audiences within days of each other, both shaped by the trauma of October 7. Yet they approach Israel’s reckoning very differently. The fifth season of Fauda, now streaming worldwide, turns revenge inward and forces its Israeli characters to confront its cost. NAZA, the Venice Prize-winning documentary by Yuval Abraham and Rachel Szor, takes a different direction. Its argument appears settled before its evidence is weighed.
Israeli self-criticism has never been absent from Israeli culture. Fauda itself is proof. The series has spent years showing Israeli operatives as brave, impulsive, traumatized, and sometimes disastrously wrong. Season five goes further. Its central theme is blood revenge, born from the October 7 massacre, and the story refuses to offer revenge as closure. The characters pursue it, suffer for it, and discover how little comfort it provides. Their pain is real, yet the series still allows the audience to question what to do with it.
Trusting the viewers enough to leave judgement open.
Serious art can expose wounds without pretending that one moral interpretation explains every decision made under fire. It can look directly at Palestinian suffering, Israeli leadership failures, and the brutality that war produces, while preserving context, uncertainty, and human agency. Fauda has never required viewers to believe every Israeli action is justified. It trusts them enough to leave judgment open.
NAZA asks for a different kind of trust. The film is built around interviews with 24 Israeli soldiers and intelligence personnel whose identities are concealed. They make grave allegations about targeting decisions in Gaza, including claims that mass civilian deaths were knowingly built into military operations. Those allegations deserve examination. They also demand exceptional scrutiny. The IDF has categorically rejected them, arguing that the anonymous speakers’ identities and military roles cannot be verified.
Anonymity does not invalidate testimony, especially when whistleblowers fear professional or legal consequences. It does, however, place a heavier burden on filmmakers making claims of extraordinary scale. Viewers cannot assess the sources’ rank, access to information, direct involvement, or possible motives. When a documentary presents testimony under those conditions, its framing becomes even more consequential. NAZA’s public presentation leaves little sense that the central proposition remains contested.

“It’s shocking. You know, we are fighting global antisemitic incitement. But when it comes from within us, it’s simply intolerable,” he said of the film by directors Yuval Abraham and Rachel Szor.
“And it starts with Yair Golan, who says that we murder babies as a hobby,” he continued, referencing May 2025 remarks by the far-left politician.
“It then continues with the MAG [former Military Advocate General Yifat Tomer-Yerushalmi], who leaks a fabricated and false video that smears IDF soldiers all over the world.” (Tomer Yerushalmi was dismissed in May after admitting she leaked the video, which the accused soldiers say was doctored to falsely implicate them.)
“And now, two Israeli directors who present the IDF as war criminals and are lauded at the Venice festival,” he said.
Netanyahu noted that the Directors Guild of Israel came out in support of Abraham and Szor. The guild’s head, Eliran Elya, who announced his resignation earlier this month, is now a candidate for Eisenkot’s party, he said.
“So I say to Gadi Eisenkot: Cancel your surplus-vote agreement with Yair Golan’s party, come out with a sharp condemnation of this thing and kick this guy off your list,” he added.
Eisenkot had condemned “NAZA” in an X post earlier on Monday.
“The choice of Israeli filmmakers to stand on an international stage, present a distorted and one-sided picture and cast a moral stain on the soldiers who protect our home is moral blindness, a disconnect from reality and harms the State of Israel at a difficult hour,” he wrote.

COGAT said the deliveries include X-ray machines, oxygen concentrators, generators, spare parts and incubators, and are coordinated with international organizations under a monitoring mechanism intended to prevent Hamas terrorists from taking control of the aid.
The agency said additional efforts include establishing new medical facilities and arranging medical evacuations from the Strip.

Department of Justice, September 15, 2026:
Jonathan Hunter Kramer, 21, a resident of Valencia, Pennsylvania, has been charged by federal criminal complaint with receiving a firearm and ammunition knowing or having reasonable cause to believe that the firearm and ammunition would be used to commit a felony or a federal crime of terrorism, including providing, attempting to provide, and conspiring to provide material support or resources to a designated Foreign Terrorist Organization (FTO). FBI agents interdicted Kramer this weekend as he returned to a hotel in possession of three 30-round capacity rifle magazines and five boxes of rifle ammunition. The FBI then executed search warrants, seized a semiautomatic rifle and ammunition from his hotel room, and arrested him….
“Kramer was taken into custody just as he appeared to be preparing for a mass shooting that could have taken many lives, having already secured a rifle and approximately 190 rounds of ammunition for what he called his ‘mission,’” said Assistant Attorney General for National Security John Eisenberg. “His apparent ISIS inspiration and escalation toward violence show how close this country came to a devastating attack. This arrest prevented what could have been a horrific tragedy.”…
According to the affidavit filed in support of the complaint, Kramer has been known to the FBI since an earlier investigation in 2023, which resulted in Kramer, then a minor, being charged and adjudicated delinquent by Pennsylvania state authorities for his role in a plot to commit a mass casualty incident and for possessing child sexual abuse material. On March 19, 2026, following Kramer’s release from a Pennsylvania juvenile detention facility, an anonymous individual made an online tip to the FBI reporting a return to troubling behavior by Kramer, including, among other activities, his ordering of “mysterious” packages and “talking to his friends from before” his juvenile adjudication. Subsequent investigation confirmed that Kramer had been using the online persona of “Hamza Al Rashid” who claimed affiliation with ISIS, offered to share explosive manuals with others, and expressed his intent to prepare for his “mission” and that he was just missing a “weapon.”
On Sept. 12, the FBI observed Kramer quickly depart his residence while carrying a bag and travel via rideshare to a retail store, where he purchased a disposable phone. After exiting the store, he met an individual in the parking lot and acquired a long black bag from the trunk of a vehicle. Kramer then traveled to a hotel in Cranberry Township, Pennsylvania, where he paid cash to book a room. Witnesses from both the store and hotel noted Kramer’s bag making a metallic clicking sound when he placed it down. After checking into his room, Kramer traveled to a sporting goods store and was observed by the FBI at the gun counter.
Upon returning to the hotel’s parking lot, FBI agents approached Kramer while he carried two bags containing the contents of his purchase from the sporting goods store. Kramer agreed to speak with the agents and placed the bags on the ground. The FBI then executed federal search warrants on Kramer’s person, hotel room, and residence. Agents seized a semiautomatic rifle, five rifle magazines (two loaded and the other three each offering a 30-round capacity), a rifle bipod and scope, a total of 190 rounds of rifle ammunition, an entrenchment tool, a prayer rug, pepper spray, and approximately 30 knives, along with a handwritten note stating “DoNt look For me[.] IDK what I did buT I cant live In constant Fear[.]”

Pennsylvania man charged in plot to assist ISIS in terror attack, feds say.
Jonathan Hunter Kramer, 21, has been known to the FBI for years as a terror threat, according to a federal criminal complaint.

The complaint says the FBI also tracked Kramer’s suspicious purchases since his release from juvenile jail, including a 5-inch knife and pepper spray ordered from Amazon.
Kramer also allegedly had an online alias, “Hamza Al Rashid,” where he brainstormed “methods of violence against the Kuffar, as well as tools that can be useful to remain anonymous,” according to the complaint. Kuffar is a reference to non-Muslims.
A shared document Kramer administered discussed how “fire is an extremely useful tool to cause irreplaceable damage to the kuffars homes and land, and cost millions, if not billions of dollars, in damage if used correctly,” the complaint says.
“While fire leads to less deaths, it causes much more chaos/displacement,” Kramer said in the alleged document, according to the complaint.
Kramer also allegedly suggested that “good areas to target” are places like “nightclubs, theaters, concerts, and apartment buildings/hotels and schools with low security.”
“Not only does the fire carry risk of death, in events of mass confusion, people will normally stampede each other trying to escape, leading to more possible deaths,” the document allegedly continued.
Kramer’s alleged planning document highlighted poisonings, large trucks and firearms as “methods to increase your jihad’s destruction.” Battaglia said he promoted “distracting emergency services” as a strategy for carrying out an attack.
“I might be able to carry out an operation soon against the kuffar, please pray for my success brothers,” Kramer allegedly wrote to the online community on May 26.
