    Why the Term "Fakestinians" Resonates More Than Ever Since the Genocidal-Islamist October 7th Terrorist MassacreSince the October 7th Hamas-led massacre—a genocidal, premeditated assault targeting Israeli civilians—the Palestinian narrative has been increasingly exposed as manipulative, deceptive, and rooted in distortion. The term “Fakestinians” has gained traction not as an attack on individual Arabs, but as a critique of a manufactured identity and a propaganda machine that fuels violence and global misinformation. Here's why: 1. Invented National Identity Rooted in Historical RevisionismThe majority of so-called “Palestinians” are descendants of relatively recent Arab immigrants who moved into the British Mandate of Palestine during...

    A Brief History of Tucker Carlson – From Conservative Star to Qatar’s Mouthpiece Following the passing of conservative legend Rush Limbaugh and the fall of Bill O’Reilly, Tucker Carlson emerged as a leading voice on the American right. His popularity soared during the COVID-19 pandemic, largely due to his anti-establishment rhetoric and combative style. For a time, he filled a vacuum in conservative media, channeling public frustration into high ratings for Fox News. However, Carlson’s trajectory shifted in 2023 when he was abruptly ousted from Fox News. The dismissal followed a series of controversies—including a high-profile lawsuit by a former...

    'Israeli hostages may be the only people purposely starved in Gaza'. Dan Perry says that there is "clearly hunger in Gaza". You cannot deny that there is hunger in Gaza, according to Dan Perry, former head of the Associated Press Africa, Middle East, and Europe desks. “There clearly is hunger in Gaza,” Perry said last week on the ILTV News Podcast. “Half of Gaza has been flattened, the economy has been destroyed. It's not by any means self-sufficient. It's blockaded from all sides — from the sea and from the air. It's under very severe military assault. I don't think...

    Russian President Vladimir Putin on Thursday described the United Arab Emirates (UAE) as “one of the suitable” venues for an upcoming meeting with US President Donald Trump. “We have many friends who are ready to help us organize events of this kind. One of our friends is the president of the United Arab Emirates,” Putin told journalists in the Kremlin following a meeting with his Emirati counterpart Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, who arrived in Moscow on an official visit. “I think we will decide, but this would be one of the suitable, quite suitable locations,” Putin said, expressing...

    Abbas' advisor: "Emotionally Oct. 7 stirred the emotions of all of us". Criticizing Hamas for the "disaster" suffered by Palestinians because of Hamas' Oct. 7, 2023 massacre and ensuing war, PA Chairman Mahmoud Abbas' advisor admitted that the massacre itself was "praised and cheered" by Palestinians. In fact, the murder of over 1,100 Israelis including over 800 civilians, the wounding of over 5,000, and the kidnapping of 251 "stirred their emotions"..

    The term "pallyweid" can be used to describe a specific type of rhetoric or narrative about the Israeli-Palestinian conflict that is both misleading and one-sided, often found in discussions that accuse Israel erroneously of “apartheid” and “genocide.” Here's how the key elements can be incorporated into the term: Pallyweid and the Apartheid SlurThe term pallyweid draws from the "apartheid" false accusation leveled at Israel, which critics claim is based on systemic racial segregation akin to the policies of South Africa during apartheid. In reality, Israel’s legal and political framework is far different from the brutal racial segregation of the South...

    The New York Times admitted Tuesday that an emaciated Palestinian child it featured on the the front page suffered from “pre-existing health problems” that it had presented, inaccurately, as the result of starvation. There is an ongoing humanitarian crisis in Gaza — the result of poor food distribution, not low supply, as Hamas and armed gangs loot aid convoys. Hamas also refuses to release Israeli hostages and end the war. As Breitbart News reported, the child, photographed by Ahmed Jihad Ibrahim Al-arini of the Turkish Anadolu agency, had a muscular disorder. Few outlets that ran the photo disclosed that fact...
