so follow the money and shut it down might work?

All I read in the MSM is how Trumpieboy is losing in Iran and how this is making him unpopular. 

then I read that Hamas has promised to disarm and let the board of peace take over Gaza, and another deal with Iranian leaders (who alas don't control the crazies).

Of course, all the negative press coverage repeating talking points has nothing to do with this. And the background is missing or again talking points that have to do with party politics. Well, duh.

However, Sundance at Conservative Treehouse links to a video discussing how the Iran/Hezbollah/Hamas network is being starved of funds.

“From Camp David, President Trump framed a reported Hamas disarmament agreement as a breakthrough enabled by pressure on Iran, arguing the regional strategic terrain has shifted. The episode highlights two developments presented as unprecedented: Hamas agreeing to disarm and Israel and Lebanon resuming talks after three decades, both attributed to cutting off Iranian funding for proxies like Hamas and Hezbollah. Kokinda claims the decisive “weapon” was Treasury action under Secretary Scott Bessent—sanctions, OFAC tools, anti–money laundering measures—described as “economic fury,” including designating over 1,000 Iranian-linked individuals, ships, and companies and disrupting routes through shipping, insurance, and offshore finance.

 

The script also points to the February 19, 2026 launch of the multinational “Board of Peace,” tasked with rebuilding Gaza, as a preplanned institutional blueprint that helped secure the Hamas agreement.”

one comment puts this attack into perspective:

 Will August 1, 2026 7:36 pm Makes even more sense why Bessent was an assassination target at the very onset of his tenure.

 and also: unlike the crazies on the left and right, Trump recognizes that most Muslims and Muslim countries have a long history of commerce and trade, so would willingly chose peace since the crazy terrorist movements kill more pious Muslims than gentiles.
