Happy Monday, dear Kruiser Morning Briefing friends. Kapwyckym became a favorite for Skee-Ball league snack duty with his Bartles and Jaymes boysenberry upside-down cake.
Dumpster fire. Train wreck. There are a variety of tried and true phrases to describe this period of painful Biden havoc in which we live. In reality, it's more like being caught in the midst of competing dumpster fires and train wrecks, and there's no place to hide. There also seems to be an endless supply of burning dumpsters and wrecking trains.
It's been six months since Hamas did what Hamas does, only on a grander, more horrific scale. Catherine covered the reminder for us yesterday:
Six months ago today, on October 7, Hamas terrorists invaded Israel to inflict horrific atrocities on civilians of all ages, committing the worst single day of massacre of Jews since the Holocaust. Yet six months later, much of the world is sympathizing with the guilty and attacking the victims in the Hamas-Israel conflict!
Six months ago, babies were burned alive and/or beheaded, whole families were gunned down, women were raped to death, and civilians of all ages were kidnapped. Gazans celebrated the mass murder, and the Palestinian Authority rewarded the jihadis with cash.
As Catherine notes, much of the world has lost its bearings on this issue, and it's appalling, especially here in the United States.
Last October and November, most prominent Democrats were staunchly sticking by our ally Israel. The raging antisemitism was really only coming from the members of the Squad, who had established it as their brand almost the moment they got into office. Sadly, that's no longer the case.
Think tanks be damned, Democratic policy is now largely driven by the whims of angry college-aged mobs. That's where "Defund the Police" got all of its energy.

Imagine 1941 or so — sure, Hitler started out looking like a Bad Guy, but after 6 months or so, the media and the US government starts to think that maybe those Jews had it coming ...
What an awful world we live in.
