These mobile units killing have been seen more in ethnic cleansing and genocide (generally) not among terror groups... they're hiding in schools, mosques using people as human shields deliberately to cause deaths... Mass murder mass kidnapping broadcast on social media it terrifies ordinarily people... (it's a miscalculation of Hamas part).

It's been sitting for nearly two decades but is finally going back on the road soon. In the vast deserts of New Mexico, an intriguing discovery has recently emerged from the sands of time - a pristine DeLorean, tucked away in a dusty barn, with a mere 977 miles on its odometer. In the last several years, the iconic stainless steel sports car, forever associated with the Back to the Future film franchise, has become a symbol of the 1980s and a cherished relic among collectors and enthusiasts alike. It's always cool to see an abandoned DeLorean get a second...

The question requires moral courage because it explicitly focuses on Muslims in America and what they might be planning to do. May we talk? While Harvard students, Democrat Socialists, and New Yorkers dance in the streets and Israel clambers to its feet in the Simchat Torah war that began on October 7, sponsored by Iran, funded in part by the USA, and armed in part by US weapons left behind in Afghanistan, might not now be an appropriate time for us to have a heart-to-heart candid conversation about the Moslems among us? We need to find the answer to a...

During a portion of an interview with PBS aired on Tuesday’s broadcast of “NewsHour,” Portland Police Bureau Sgt. Jerry Cioeta stated that the city is “just in disarray” as it deals with crime. “NewsHour” Correspondent Stephanie Sy asked, “Do you think that [Measure] 110 [the initiative decriminalizing possession of small amounts of drugs] increased demand?” Cioeta answered, “I think it’s too hard to tell. Because fentanyl hit when 110 hit, when COVID was here, it was the perfect storm for a drug epidemic like we’d never seen before.” Sy then said, “As part of Measure 110, police are directed to...

If all the climate activists just held their breath for 4 hours, it would end climate change. This stuff will keep Babylon Bee in business for years! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=siDf60h7MTA The Guardian:If all the world’s dogs went vegan it would save more greenhouse gas emissions than those produced by the UK, according to research advocating the environmental benefits of plant-based pets.The study estimated cats and dogs consume about 9% of all land animals killed for food – about 7 billion animals annually – as well as billions of fish and aquatic animals. Plant-based diets lower greenhouse gas emissions and require less land...

NATIONAL SAUSAGE PIZZA DAY Food lovers across the country enjoy National Sausage Pizza Day on October 11th each year. Whether served on a thin or thick crust, sausage pizza goes well with other toppings, too. Don't hesitate to add mushrooms and a variety of cheeses. What's even better about sausage pizza are the different kinds of sausage to choose from. #SausagePizzaDay While Italian sausage may be preferred, try experimenting. Add more garlic or try additional spice. Try smoky sausages such as chorizo or even a kielbasa visit with your local butcher for sausage suggestions. They've probably been smoking up the...

We have received full files of Richmond papers as late as Thursday last. They contain the following interesting news: The Atlanta appeal, of Saturday evening, Oct. 3, says: "The only indication of preparation to make any new movement, that we have been able to learn, is that a large force of workmen have been ordered up to repair the damaged bridges over the Hiawassee and at Loudoun. The inference is that we will have use for them in intended operations in upper East Tennessee. A letter in the Columbus Enquirer, dated "before Chattanooga, Sept. 26," says: "Since the picket fight,...

Tapping on the Twitter icon recently, as I have done for a dozen years, I found a notice from the company, under its new name, telling me that I had been permanently banned, that my account was closed and that I would never be allowed to open another.“After careful review,” it read, “we determined your account broke the X Rules.”No specifics, no citation, no offending tweet. Just, you’re gone. I’ve never been warned, put on probation or otherwise censured or chastised by the company. All I’ve ever heard from Twitter were entreaties – which I declined – to monetize my...

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. Loitering munitions, drones used as unmanned bait, civilian vehicles 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 a vehicle is captured and then...

"God, after He spoke long ago to the fathers in the prophets in many portions and in many ways, in these last days has spoken to us in His Son" (Heb. 1:1-2). Scripture is the storehouse of divine revelation. For decades liberal theologians have misrepresented the Bible as merely a collection of man's religious thoughts and aspirations. But Scripture is much more than that. It is in fact divine revelation—God's self disclosure through His Spirit to the human authors. Man could never know God's identity, attributes, perspectives, or commands if God hadn't revealed them to him. Nor could man know...

WASHINGTON, Oct 10 (Reuters) - The U.S. is talking with Israel and Egypt about the idea of a safe passage for Gaza civilians as Israel strikes the enclave after a deadly Hamas attack over the weekend, U.S. national security adviser Jake Sullivan said on Tuesday. "We are focused on this question, there are consultations going on," Sullivan told reporters at the White House. "But the details of that are something that are being discussed among the operational agencies and I don't want to share too much of that publicly at this time," Sullivan said. Israel has battered Palestinians with deadly...

It's easy to play politics but the truth is the truth. We are watching the consequences of policies that began on the day that President Biden was sworn in. He started this, so sit back because turbulence is ahead. I agree with Charlie Hurt: Rarely in politics can a straighter line be drawn directly from an administration’s policies to the calamitous results of those policies. President Biden opened the southern border. Historic waves of millions of illegals came streaming across the border. President Biden launched a historic spending binge. Now, Americans are suffering under the highest inflation in 40 years....

When Adam Smith got in his car, drove up to a Chick-fil-A drive through window and began confronting an employee about LGBT rights, he thought he was doing something positive.For him, it was one step in undoing anti-gay messaging he says he was taught as a child.But his first act of protest ever would soon cause his life to unravel.Smith filmed the 2012 encounter in Tucson, Arizona as part of a larger demonstration against the fast food chain. Its chairman, president and CEO Dan T. Cathy — a noted Christian — had publicly said he was "guilty as charged" for...

Pray For The Peace of JerusalemActs 1Jesus Taken Up Into Heaven 1 In my former book, Theophilus, I wrote about all that Jesus began to do and to teach 2 until the day he was taken up to heaven, after giving instructions through the Holy Spirit to the apostles he had chosen. 3 After his suffering, he presented himself to them and gave many convincing proofs that he was alive. He appeared to them over a period of forty days and spoke about the kingdom of God. 4 On one occasion, while he was eating with them, he gave them...

Have you ever wondered why leftists, including radical feminists and LGBTQ+ activists and their allies, support Hamas? The reality is that radical feminists protesting for their rights in Gaza would either be jailed on the spot or killed. As for a gay pride event in Gaza, the very thought of it is ludicrous.

I've recently lost 42 lbs on a "clean" keto diet. By clean, I mean no processed "keto" processed foods. I have 30 pounds to go! Anyone who has tried losing weight knows about weight loss stalls. They can be devastating to your will power. I wanted to share what I've learned and what has worked for me. The short of it is, lettuce causes weight loss stalls for me on the keto diet. Same is true for my wife. Eating salads will stall our weight loss even though there are no significant carbs in lettuce or the salad toppings. If...

Beer quality is on a steady decline and is likely to cost more at the bar because of climate change, a new study has found. Experts said with falling hop yields, British and European drinkers should expect to see the cost of beer increase in the coming years. Researchers highlighted how the increase in agricultural droughts will directly impact the amount of hops grown and the quality. Hops give beer its distinctive taste and smell and come in many different varieties. The research "demonstrates a climate-induced decline in the quality and quantity of traditional aroma hops across Europe and calls...
