    This week, Israel announced its victory in the battle of Rafah in which four battalions of Hamas fighters were destroyed in the four months of fighting. This was a battle that Democrat nominee for president Vice President Kamala Harris urged them not to fight. "It wasn't because I didn't think they couldn't win this battle," Harris said. "It was because I thought they shouldn't win such a battle. It would cause too many civilian casualties and push the eventual establishment of a Palestinian state even further into the future." Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu called the victory "essential to winning...

    I've put on my best Tin Foil Hat over the attempted assassination of President Trump. The article I posted from the NY Times details how a NY Times Reporter in Ukraine came into contact with Ryan Routh for an interview. This reporter details how thru his connections to someone in Afghanistan who had connections in Iran put him onto Ryan Routh. Here's another recent article about the Secret Service upping security around Trump because of an Iranian Plot https://www.pbs.org/newshour/politics/ap-report-secret-service-boosted-trump-protection-after-iranian-threat Yesterday on the Megyn Kelly Daily Podcast, she talked about allegations that Iran has infiltrated the Secret Service and has a...

    They rushed to Ukraine by the thousands, many of them Americans who promised to bring military experience, money or supplies to the battleground of a righteous war. Hometown newspapers hailed their commitment, and donors backed them with millions of dollars. With Legion growth stalling, Ryan Routh, a former construction worker from Greensboro, N.C., is seeking recruits from among Afghan soldiers who fled the Taliban. Mr. Routh, who spent several months in Ukraine last year, said he planned to move them, in some cases illegally, from Pakistan and Iran to Ukraine. He said dozens had expressed interest We can probably purchase...

HONOLULU (Hawaii 7News Now) -- Bomb threats targeting synagogues and symbols of hate along Hawaii’s busiest roadway — the messages appear to be connected to a war 9,000 miles away. Along the H-1 highway by the Barber’s Point exit, one of the many places that have a swastika along with the star of David graffitied onto signs. Those symbols can be seen for about 10 miles along the H-1 heading into town. “We think of...

    A New York Times report was discovered on Sunday mentioning Ryan Wesley Routh, 58, who was caught targeting Trump, armed with a scoped AK-47 rifle in West Palm Beach before shots were fired by the Secret Service. The New York Times was actually in contact with and interviewed Routh for their article. In an oddly coincidental Truth Social post, just hours before the attempted shooting, Trump said, “THE FAILING NEW YORK TIMES IS A TRUE THREAT TO DEMOCRACY!” https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/113142180434016846 The article from the Times ties the would-be shooter to nutbag MSNBC terrorism analyst Malcolm Nance, who once called for ISIS...

    President Joe Biden’s months-long push for a cease-fire and hostage release deal between Israel and Hamas has been upended again in recent days, putting the deal on life support as U.S. officials say they are reassessing next steps after they initially hoped to present the two sides with a “take it or leave it” proposal... The latest obstacle — the abrupt introduction by Hamas of a new demand... The two sides had tentatively agreed that at a certain point, Israel would release Palestinian militants serving life sentences in exchange for Hamas freeing Israeli soldiers. But this week, Hamas said civilian...

    Frontpagemagazine ^ | August 27, 2024 | Robert Spencer
    And leftists are wearing it proudly. Like everything that is “Palestinian,” the keffiyeh comes from somewhere else. Its name is derived from an Italian word, cuffia, or headdress. It originated among the Bedouins as a protection from the sun, and not just Palestinians, or Arabs in general, wear it; Kurds and Yazidis sometimes sport it as a non-political statement. Nevertheless, the close identification of this headdress with the Palestinian jihad against Israel has made it unmistakable: the keffiyeh is today what the broken cross of National Socialism was in the 1930s and 1940s. It is a symbol of an irrational...

    Opinion The American military-industrial complex, coined by President Eisenhower in 1961, has shaped US foreign policy and military strategy while perpetuating global conflicts The American military-industrial complex, a term popularized by President Dwight D. Eisenhower in his farewell address in 1961, refers to the synergistic relationship between a nation's armed forces, its defence industry, and its political establishment. This complex has played a pivotal role in shaping U.S. foreign policy and military strategy, leading to extensive global influence and numerous conflicts over the past century. While wars undoubtedly bring immense destruction and suffering, they have also generated substantial profits for...

    CHICAGO — Leaders of four Muslim organizations say they’re expecting upwards of 100,000 demonstrators to take part in a number of protests during the Democratic National Convention. Three main protests are being planned for Monday, Wednesday and Thursday, the first and last days of the convention. More than 150 organizations from around the country say they’ve formed a collective to have these protests be large in numbers, and while they represent a number of different interests, they say they will be focused on the Israeli-Palestinian war. The leaders at a Monday morning press event said there will also be meetings...

    Ever since the Hamas attack on Israel last October, there has been an ongoing argument over whether or not Palestinians (in Gaza and elsewhere) are responsible for the actions of Hamas or merely additional victims of those actions.My sense of the media landscape is that most national news outlets see Palestinians as victims of Israel with some acknowledgement that Hamas is responsible for Israel's reaction to the October attack. But even so, the general argument has been that Palestinian civilians are mostly innocents who aren't responsible for the actions of Hamas.It's considered bad form and maybe even an outrage among...

    Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas will visit Moscow next week to discuss the Gaza war with Russian President Vladimir Putin, a Palestinian envoy said. Russia's state-run TASS news agency cited the Palestinian ambassador in Moscow as saying Abbas will arrive on Monday and meet Putin on Tuesday. Ambassador Abdel Hafiz Nofal said the two leaders would discuss events in Gaza since the October 7 attacks on Israel. "They will talk about Russia's role, what can be done." According to AFP, he said: "We have a very difficult situation, and Russia is a country that is close to us. We need...

    Vice presidential hopeful Josh Shapiro spent last week tempering his Jewishness, walking back support for Israel to pacify the pro-Hamas wing of the Democratic Party. At this pace, the Pennsylvania governor is mere days from warning us that the future doesn’t belong to those who slander the prophet of Islam.Hey, Michigan isn’t going to win itself.You can really learn a lot about a politician by watching who they choose to appease. The problem is that Shapiro, who is reportedly on the top of Kamala Harris’s veep list, has a record of supporting a liberal democratic ally in the Middle East...

    Wild West Bank Part 2: BOTH SIDES NOW 👥 On the same day I went to Ramallah (aka “Palestine”), I returned right to Tel Aviv and asked Israelis the EXACT same questions. The answers were day and night… If we want peace in the Middle East, which I believe is still possible one day, we must first acknowledge how much indoctrination there has been on one side. They’ve been taught peace is a curse word and that Jews are subhuman. “Palestine” can’t be free, until there’s freedom of thought.

    New Delhi: The deep fissures in Israeli society came out in the open this week when a mob of lawmakers and far right groups stormed an Israeli base where soldiers accused of raping a Palestinian prisoner are being held pending their trial. Some Israelis have called it one of their most distressing days, while right-wing Israeli lawmakers, including those from the ruling Likud, have justified the rape of Hamas prisoners, claiming it is legitimate due to the atrocities committed during the October 7 attacks, which Israel says resulted in approximately 1,200 deaths: “A member of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s Likud...

    The core at the Middle East ‘conflict’ is about anti-Jewish bigotry * The intolerance started mainly since Sheikh Suleiman al-Taji al-Faruqi wrote a hateful poem in 'Falastin' newspaper on November 8, 1913 mixing Quranic ideas with old anti Semitic stereotypes (leading to the 1914 closure of the newspaper by the Turks for inciting race-hatred). Then by Haj Amin al-Husseini in the 1920s. The Mufti also chose to “believe” in ancient blood libel. * The brunt of the victims in brutality, with genocidal cries "adbakh al yahud", 1920, 1921 and especially in Hebron 1929 massacre, were non-Zionist pious-Jews - the murders...
