    Middle East Eye ^ | 12 November 2024 | Joseph Massad
    Holland's support for genocidal Israeli fans and condemnation of its own citizens as 'antisemitic' is the latest manifestation of its fanatical support for Israel and racist historyLate last week, the western world was aghast at the alleged "antisemitic attacks" in Amsterdam targeting Israeli football fans, injuring 10 of them. King Willem-Alexander of the Netherlands swiftly condemned the attacks, which he claimed were reminiscent of "dark and grim times for the Jewish people", and vowed not to "turn a blind eye to antisemitism" amid mass arrests. The king does not seem to consider it antisemitic, however, to equate Israeli football...

    President-elect Donald J. Trump tapped Fox and Friends co-host Pete Hegseth to run the Pentagon. It sent shockwaves through the political and media landscapes—many people don’t like the nomination, which means it’s good. It triggered yet another liberal meltdown over Mr. Hegseth’s supposed lack of experience. The man is a decorated combat veteran who has also worked for Concerned Veterans for America and Vets for Freedom. Sen. Elizabeth Warren's (D-MA) tweet seems to insinuate that Hegseth never served, but that’s par for the course since this fake Indian is a grade-A moron. The tweet deserved to be scalped for its...

We disagree more with Trump and Elon, but they're at least willing to have a conversation. Whereas Democratic leadership thinks it's offensive if you ask them hard questions.

    Explanation: A mere 56 million light-years distant toward the southern constellation Fornax, NGC 1365 is an enormous barred spiral galaxy about 200,000 light-years in diameter. That's twice the size of our own barred spiral Milky Way. This sharp image from the James Webb Space Telescope's Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI) reveals stunning details of this magnificent spiral in infrared light. Webb's field of view stretches about 60,000 light-years across NGC 1365, exploring the galaxy's core and bright newborn star clusters. The intricate network of dusty filaments and bubbles is created by young stars along spiral arms winding from the galaxy's central bar....

    Democratic strategist David Axelrod is pushing for U.S. Ambassador to Japan Rahm Emanuel to become the new chair of the Democratic National Committee (DNC). “If they said, ‘Well, what should we do? Who should lead the party?’ I would take Ambassador Rahm Emanuel, and I would bring him back from Japan and I would appoint him chairman of the Democratic National Committee,” Axelrod said Tuesday on his podcast “Hacks on Tap.” “He is the most skillful, political kind of infighter in the Democratic Party. … He’s been a member of Congress, he’s been White House chief of staff, he’s been...

    Newsweek ^ | Nov 9, 2024
    T.J. McCormack, a Republican communications specialist, said Lara Trump might be the most "underrated political success story" of the past few years. "The job of the RNC leadership is to recruit the best and brightest candidates, support and shepherd their campaigns and—drumroll—win the presidency and both houses of Congress," McCormack told Newsweek. "So, on a pragmatic, definitive basis alone, Lara Trump has done her job with flying colors. Any remaining critics of Lara Trump as co-chair of the RNC will likely be professional contrarians or shrill never-Trumpers."

    On the tragic evening of November 13, 1974, a young man shoots and kills his entire family with a 35-caliber Marlin rifle as his parents, two brothers and two sisters apparently sleep. The gruesome murder of the DeFeo family shakes up the sleepy Long Island town of Amityville—and leads to decades of horror storytelling. Ronald “Butch” DeFeo Jr. told people that night at an Amityville bar that his parents had been shot inside his home, an upscale dwelling with a statue of the Virgin Mary and a sign declaring "High Hopes" in front. Several bar patrons accompanied him back to...
