We are witnessing an old-fashioned standoff in the Middle East right now. The IDF was supposed to have sent thousands of troops storming into Gaza by now, but threats from Hezbollah and Iran have caused Israeli officials to pause. Do the Israelis really want to fight an extremely bloody two front war? Iran has actually brought up the possibility of “pre-emptive action”, but that would inevitably spark a military response from the United States. Do the Iranians really want to fight the U.S. military? There are some that are hoping that this standoff will ultimately allow cooler heads to prevail,...

BEIRUT — Syrian opposition activists say a drone attack has been conducted on an oil facility in eastern Syria housing American troops and a U.S. base in a nearby area. There was no immediate word on casualties and the U.S. military didn’t immediately respond to requests for confirmation. Omar Abu Layla, a Europe-based activist who heads the Deir Ezzor 24 media outlet, said that three drones with explosives struck the Conoco COP, +0.90% gas field in the eastern province of Deir el-Zour that borders Iraq on Thursday. Rami Abdurrahman of the Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, an opposition war...

Louisiana has become the most recent state to adopt a ban on "Zuckerbucks" — the injection of private money into public election administration — from their elections through a constitutional amendment, following a veto by the Democratic governor over similar legislation. Voters cast their ballots on Saturday in statewide races for governor, lieutenant governor, attorney general, secretary of state, and state treasurer in addition to deciding on four ballot measures. Louisiana Attorney General Jeff Landry (R) won the gubernatorial jungle primary election and Lt. Gov. Billy Nungesser (R) won reelection. The rest of the statewide races are advancing to runoff...

Its the Biden Bop! As Bidenomics continues its blitzkrieg on the US economy with the Federal government massively expanding its debt while households and business cut back on debt. The US government is the only sector to have notably borrowed on a net basis over the last five years. The market sees that as inflationary, driving yields higher. The pandemic saw an increase in the borrowing of all sectors. But it was the government that saw the biggest rise in GDP terms, and it is the government whose debt is still considerably higher than it was before the pandemic –...

Something intriguing is happening with bitcoin. What started as a series of perplexing data “inscriptions” containing classified files from the U.S. government has now been confirmed by Bitcoin Magazine as an ongoing effort to cement information in the public record beyond the reach of government censorship. An anonymous guardian of free speech has begun using bitcoin to republish all of the information originally published by Julian Assange’s WikiLeaks back in 2010. Codenamed “Project Spartacus,” the operation seeks to take advantage of several inherent bitcoin attributes: (1) It utilizes bitcoin’s Ordinals protocol that allows users to add personalized data to units...

2018 US law prohibits sending certain taxpayer funds to PA over terrorism concerns ERUSALEM — There are growing fears among Israelis and some Palestinians that, according to a controversial law aimed at rewarding Palestinians who murder Israelis in "nationalistic attacks," the Palestinian Authority may be compelled to shell out nearly $3 million a month in compensation to the families of hundreds of Hamas terrorists who carried out the deadly massacre against Israel on October 7th. According to Israeli military estimates, nearly 3,000 Hamas terrorists infiltrated into Israeli territory from the Gaza Strip during the attack, murdering, raping and even beheading...

Listen, children, to a story That was written long ago About a Kingdom on a mountain And a valley folk down belowOn the mountain was a treasure Buried deep beneath a stone And the valley people swore They'd have it for their very ownGo ahead and hate your neighbor Go ahead and cheat a friend Do it in the name of heaven You can justify it in the endBut there won't be any trumpets blowing Come the judgment day On the bloody morning after One tin soldier rides awaySo the people of the valley Sent a message up the hill...

"When they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceeding great joy." "For he that is called in the Lord, being a servant, is the Lord's freeman: likewise also he that is called, being free, is Christ's servant. "Ye are bought with a price; be not ye the servants of men." --- Matthew 2 1 Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judaea in the days of Herod the king, behold, there came wise men from the east to Jerusalem, 2 Saying, Where is he that is born King of the Jews? for we have seen his star in the...

Why the ADL does not condemn antisemitic Hamas supporters but spends so much energy trying to censor tweeter? Former ADL Intern tore down posters of hostages taken by Hamas Terrorists. Why does the ADL calls to boycott tweeter claiming it is being used by Nazis but does not call to boycot Harvard, Cornell, Columbia where students and faculty cheer when Hamas murders Jews? Why is the ADL active calling to boycot tweeter because some Nazis post there but is silent about the much bigger problem of leftist antisemitism? Why is the ADL only concerned about antisemitism from the right but...

The horrific terrorist attack on unarmed Israelis near the border of Gaza shows how useful and effective militias can be against lightly armed and armored raiding forces.Local militias are an innate response to existential threats. They are well-fitted to the nature of man.When men lived in small communities, every man was expected to aid in the defense of the community against outside forces, which amounted to everyone outside the tribe or nation. A militia is simply local men working together to protect against the threat of others who want to kill, rape, loot and destroy. Militias can band together to...

NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: Fox News host Greg Gutfeld expressed his concern about the future by making a bizarre connection between the Israel-Palestine conflict and the call-out of white privilege in America. While commenting on the conflict and the pro-Palestine protests that are going on all over the world, including in the US, the host suggested that there might be a conflict borne out of the criticism of colonization in the current times. Greg Gutfeld claims terms like 'white privilege' are used for shaming The Fox host then took a strange turn in his discussion to make claims about...

The Palestinian Islamic Jihad, a lesser-known terrorist organization working in coordination with Hamas, has been blamed for a deadly attack on a hospital in Gaza City.

The US is sitting on a mountain of debt! As in over $33 trillion! Despite what whispering Joe Biden says, he didn’t reduce the budget deficit other than briefly. The budget deficit is forecast to run persistemly high because of endless, reckless spending and forever wars (Ukraine, Israel and … Taiwan?). (Bloomberg) — The Federal Reserve faces potential policy pitfalls ahead as it wrestles with how to respond to investor angst about the US government’s $33.5 trillion mountain of debt. It’s exceedingly difficult to have sound monetary policy without sound fiscal policy. Biden/Democrats do NOT equal sound fiscal policy. Adding...

There are an estimated 14 American hostages being held in Gaza. (This number may rise or fall as Hamas continues to release videos of the hostages and Israel continues identifying bodies, some of which have been charred beyond recognition, by using DNA samples from family members.) As of this time, there are 20 Americans missing and bodies are being tested. *snip* But the Biden administration has currently ruled out sending rescue forces, instead it is using Hamas allies, Qatar and Turkey, to conduct negotiations with the Islamic terrorist organization. While Israel has refused to trade hostages for terrorists, Biden may...

ITV News understands the government will now proceed with a ban on gay and transgender conversion therapy. After Theresa May and Boris Johnson promised to outlaw the practice, Rishi Sunak's government had considered scrapping the pledge. But The Times reported on Wednesday that after backlash from Conservative MPs and warnings that ministers could quit, the prime minister will include a draft bill in the King's speech which will criminalise "coercive" practices that attempt to change someone's sexuality and gender. The paper reported that Mr Sunak had been considering dropping the bill amid claims of "unintended consequences" for teachers, parents and...
