The spasm of Hamas-provoked violence that gripped the Gaza Strip and parts of southern Israel last week has temporarily halted for the time being.

Hamas is keenly aware of this fact having recently lost two of its operatives – Mohammad Zawari and Fadi...

About a week ago, authorities responded to a report of children living in New Mexico in filthy conditions, starving, and exposed to physical dangers. What authorities found was even more disturbing: an “extremist Muslim” compound where children were being tortured, brainwashed and trained to kill teachers, law enforcement and others with whom the Islamists didn't agree. On Monday, Judge Sarah Backus, an elected Democrat, released the five adult men and women responsible for running this operation, on bail. She explained that although she was concerned by “troubling facts” and that these people were "living in a very unconventional way,” prosecutors did...

PC FBI: In another example of just how broken the FBI is after eight years of Left-wing politicization by Barack Obama, Eric Holder, and Loretta Lynch, a damning new report documents how the New Mexico police were forced to step up and take down a suspected terrorist training camp after the bureau delayed, demurred, and stalled.
