This should have been a Monty Python sketch, along the lines of the “Dead Parrot” classic. Germany’s leading center-right newspaper Die Welt posted a banner headline at the top of its page last Friday evening just before Shabbat came in here in New York: “[Ukrainian Ambassador to Germany Andrej] Melnyk’s statement trivializes the Holocaust.” In a radio interview last week, Melnyk compared Ukrainian Nazi leader Stephan Bandera to Robin Hood and vehemently denied—in the face of massive historical documentation—that Bandera had helped to murder 800,000 Ukrainian Jews during World War II.” The Banderites also helped to murder between 40,000 and...

“When He came to the other side into the country of the Gadarenes, two men who weredemon-possessed met Him . . . and they cried out, saying, ‘What business do we have with each other, Son of God? Have You come here to torment us before the time?’” (Matthew 8:28–29). Demons can attack people mentally, physically, or spiritually. Spiritually, they oppose true religion, promote the false, and control the occult. Intellectually, they advocate false ideologies, insanity, and masochism. Our Lord always recognized demonized people as being victims of powers beyond their control and in need of deliverance, not condemnation or...

Iran boasts about its nuke program: 'When Will Iran’s Sleeping Warheads Awaken' The Iranian regime’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps on Saturday said that it can develop a nuclear weapon within a rapid-fire amount of time and obliterate New York with ballistic missiles. The London-based Iran International news organization reported that the Bisimchi Media (Radioman Media) Telegram Channel aired a short video titled, "When Will Iran’s Sleeping Warheads Awaken." The video said the Islamic Republic of Iran is capable of building nuclear bombs in a compressed period of time "if the US or the Zionist regime make any stupid mistakes."

Russia is facing “economic oblivion” in the long term because of international sanctions and the flight of businesses, several economists have said. ... However, many economists see long-lasting costs to the Russian economy from the exit of foreign firms – which will hit production capacity and capital and result in a “brain drain” – along with the loss of its long-term oil and gas markets and diminished access to critical imports of technology and inputs.

HEADQUARTERS OF THE ARMY OF THE POTOMAC, Friday, Aug. 1. About 12 o'clock last night the rebels opened fire from the opposite side of the river with two batteries of light artillery. Their fire was principally directed to the mail-boat landing at the headquarters of Col. INGALLS, and the shipping and encampments of Westover. The rebel pieces were handled well, and fired with great rapidity. Four men were killed and some five or six wounded. Several horses also were killed. The rebels had it all their own way for some time, as our troops did not anticipate an attack, but...

Asked how the US-provided Himars multiple-launch rocket systems have so precisely targeted Russian fuel and ammunition depots, as well as battlefield headquarters in eastern Ukraine, Gen Skibitsky said “in this case in particular, we use real-time information”. US officials are not providing direct targeting information, which would potentially undermine their case for not being direct participants in the war, Gen Skibitsky said. However, he suggested there was a level of consultation between intelligence officials of both countries prior to launching missiles that would allow Washington to stop any potential attacks if they were unhappy with the intended target. “I can’t...

As I write this, I can hear a cardinal trilling in the backyard. I don’t have to look out the open window to confirm the source of the sounds that come through it; I’ve come to recognize the songs and their singers. I know it’s the mourning dove whose cooing wakes me in the morning and the sparrow whose repetitive chirps complete the sunrise chorus. Watching birds perched on a branch or visiting a feeder imparts a certain connection to nature that little else does, and, for me at least, listening to their melodies alleviates stress. Birds are also the...

This list only includes destroyed vehicles and equipment of which photo or videographic evidence is available. Therefore, the amount of equipment destroyed is significantly higher than recorded here. Small arms, ATGMs, MANPADS, loitering munitions, drones used as unmanned bait, civilian vehicles, trailers and derelict equipment are not included in this list. All possible effort has gone into avoiding duplicate entries and discerning the status of equipment between captured or abandoned. Many of the entries listed as 'abandoned' will likely end up captured or destroyed. Similarly, some of the captured equipment might be destroyed if it can't be recovered. When the...

A 70-year-old woman is speaking from her bedside after being beaten brutally and even kicked in the head by multiple attackers, in broad daylight in San Francisco.

I (eventually) submitted the below email to Senator Rand Paul through his website. A previous version was rejected as a "Security Threat". ======================== Senator Paul, I'm very proud to say that you're one of my Senators. I hope you are concerned about Big Tech using its power to remove comments and ideas that they don't like from their internet platforms since the suppression of free speech is the complete antithesis of the idea of the United States of America. Also, Big Tech has reportedly been coordinating this suppression with government officials. Apparently, because they are private companies, they can currently...

I sent a text message to JD Vance's election team "Is JD Vance running ads? The only ads I see on TV are Ryan's ads blasting JD?" and received the following reply: JD is meeting with folks all over the state of Ohio right now. I know you’ve been seeing a lot of TV commercials from our opponent, but there's a lot of time between now and November. We'll be making our case for why JD is the RIGHT leader for Ohio, but there is a game plan for how and when we do that. Tim Ryan’s time under the...

(Translation) Iranian Vice Minister of Economic Affairs Mohsen Kousheshtabar confirmed that Nicolás Maduro's regime has given Iran one million hectares [2,471,054 acres] of farmland in Venezuela while the world faces a shortage of strategic reserves. Nicolás Maduro visited Iran in June where he held conversations with his Iranian counterpart Ebrahim Raisi. It was said that both nations signed a 20-year "strategic cooperation" agreement "in all areas". Along with Russia, China, Cuba, and Turkey, Iran is one of the Venezuelan regime's main allies. And, as with Caracas, the theocracy is also subject to harsh sanctions from the United States. The bilateral...

Dr. John Franklin has a podcast about excess deaths in both the UK and the United States. Approximately 16% more people are dying in these western countries yearly than in normal years. Statistics show that the vast majority of these deaths are not covid related. My question is what do you think is causing this rapid increase in deaths?
