Israel will mobilize thousands of reserve soldiers to strengthen his campaign against Hamas in the Gaza strip, the military announced on Saturday evening, since the country seemed ready to expand its offensive in the Palestinian encycling.The call suggested that the Israeli government was preparing to move the tactics in an attempt to force Hamas to accept its terms for the end of the war.

With its horse-trodden roads, endless fields of almond blossoms and cowboy heritage, the 20,000 person town of Oakdale, Calif., fits the American West of imagination. And for decades, its media diet was classically all-American, too.Nightly news broadcasts played on living room televisions. Copies of local newspapers lined doorsteps on Sunday mornings. The town even had two media outlets dedicated to rodeo and horse roping news.But that version of Oakdale is a thing of the past.First the nearby newspapers shrank, and hundreds of local reporters in the region became handfuls. Then came the presidential elections of 2016 and 2020, and the pandemic; suddenly cable networks long deemed trustworthy were peddlers of fake news, on the right and the left.By the 2024 election, when its county, Stan...
