The doctor called mRNA vaccines a ‘failed concept’ and something that the government and military have been testing for quite a long time. Cardiologist Dr. Peter McCullough warned that messenger RNA (mRNA) vaccines inject “foreign genetic code” into human beings, which the body fails to break down or expel for a prolonged period of time. Research on mRNA “has been going on for decades,” Dr. McCullough said during an Oct. 5 interview. The 2023 Nobel Prize for medicine was awarded to two scientists for making “messenger RNA long-lasting in the human body,” he said. “I mean, it has been tested...

I was reviewing a Wall Street Journal article about the Sinai border between Egypt and Gaza and various Western opinion about Egypt’s unwillingness to allow Palestinian refugees to cross the heavily controlled border. For those who do not know the deep background, the Western media context looks troublesome {GO DEEP}. However, I rise in defense of Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi, because we have tracked and discussed the issues for a long time. Egypt is in a very difficult position right now, and with Obama/Biden in the White House – the challenge is made even worse. First the WSJ framing...

Sen. John Fetterman (D-Pa.) on Thursday called on the full Senate to vote on a resolution to expel Sen. Bob Menendez (D-N.J.) from the chamber in the wake of new charges asserting the New Jersey senator has acted as a foreign agent on behalf of Egypt. “Senator Menendez should not be a U.S. Senator.

President Biden lambasted Hamas Saturday for carrying out the “worst massacres of the Jewish people since the Holocaust” while putting the lives of its own Palestinian people on the line. “More than 1,300 innocent lives lost in Israel, including at least 27 Americans. Children and grandparents alike kidnapped, held hostage by Hamas,” the commander in chief said during his speech at the Human Rights Campaign’s annual dinner.

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...

The Financial Times desperate to exonerate (Oct 13) Hamas bombings its 70 citizens while trying to leave, brings in infamous Israelophobe Cobb-Smith as supposed "evidence." It intentionally avoids elaborating inhumane Gaza-regime Hamas' calls and actions to prevent Gazans to leave the north. Not to mention previous "accidents" by Hamas and Islamic Jihad shooting rockets that killed Gazans. _ The following is from media watchdog Camera, in 2022: CNN’s Farce Of An “Investigation ” By: David Litman, May 26, 2022 .. Far from being an impartial expert, Cobb-Smith is an “advisor” for the notoriously partisan rganization Forensic Architecture. This organization has...

90% of Israelis believe the Israeli government knew the Hamas attack was coming and did nothing about it. Hundreds of thousands of military aged Hamas and Hezbollah men have entered this country through the wide-open southern border with the mission of launching attacks in the West. When it happens, Barack Hussein Obama will be directly to blame.

Why not make them go NORTH TO LEBANON, AND FIGHT HAMAS AND HEZBOLLAH IN THE NORTH? They seem to be leaving sn (sic) opening for HEZBOLLAH to pin them on that flank.

The 10 gunmen from Gaza knew exactly how to find the Israeli intelligence hub — and how to get inside. - snip - Ten miles later, they veered off the road into a stretch of woodland, dismounting outside an unmanned gate to a military base. They blew open the barrier with a small explosive charge, entered the base and paused to take a group selfie. Then they shot dead an unarmed Israeli soldier dressed in a T-shirt. For a moment, the attackers appeared uncertain about where to go next. Then one of them pulled something from his pocket: a color-coded...
