The architects of Project 2025 at the conservative Heritage Foundation have drafted a plan to break the pro-Palestinian movement in the U.S., in anticipation of a victory by Trump.

The plan, dubbed “Project Esther,” casts pro-Palestinian activists in the U.S. as members of a global conspiracy aligned with designated terrorist organizations.

To achieve its goals, Project Esther proposes the use of counterterrorism and hate speech laws, as well as immigration measures, including the deportation of students and other individuals in the United States on foreign visas for taking part in pro-Palestinian activities. It also advocates deploying the Foreign Agents Registration Act, a law placing disclosure obligations on parties representing foreign interests, against organizations that the report’s authors imply are funded and directed from abroad.

Project Esther’s authors envision their campaign unfolding in a series of stages: first, the purging of “propaganda” from school curricula, followed by an intimidation campaign to dissuade students from joining demonstrations, and restrictions on social media communication, gatherings, and other forms of coordination between pro-Palestinian groups. The end of the process leads to a moment when both the U.S. public and a “preponderance of Jewish community perceives HSOs”—short for Hamas Support Organizations—“as a threat to their safety.”

This conspiratorial framing is part of a legal strategy to suppress speech favorable to Palestinians or critical of the U.S.-Israel relationship, by employing counterterrorism laws to suppress what would otherwise be protected speech, legal experts told Drop Site News.

🔻According to multiple reports, the Israeli army has reduced 50% of the invading forces operating in southern Lebanon recently and sent many to their homes.

A major attack (probably on the village of al-Khayam) was planned, but was canceled due to the heavy failure of the preliminary operations.

The chances of a proper ceasefire agreement are now slim.
Given the fact that the Israeli army, as they say, has not yet finished the "unfinished business" in southern Lebanon, especially since their initial goal was to clear the entire 3-kilometer strip in the north, the distance between Al-Labuna and Kafarchoba. Israel cannot say in the media that we achieved our goals, and that is why the discharge of the soldiers was carried out in complete silence.
