US and Israel 'actively working' to strip Jordan of Al-Aqsa custodianship, sources say

Sources told Middle East Eye that the US and Israel are actively working to strip Jordan of its custodianship of the Al-Aqsa Mosque complex, pursuing a new arrangement that would align management with Israeli interests. This plan, reportedly championed by Jared Kushner and Mike Huckabee, would end the Islamic Waqf's authority, allow Jewish prayer, and give Israel significant say over mosque officials and sermon content.

Lebanon: Those who resist Israel are now called internal enemies of the state

As with previous rounds of negotiations, the latest US-brokered talks between Lebanon and Israel, held in Washington earlier this month, signalled the laundering of war through diplomacy. Their function was to normalise Israeli aggression as the background condition of the political process, converting demands for a ceasefire from the prerequisite for negotiations into just one item up for discussion.
