Hamas terrorists were quietly building a sprawling European terror network for years — stockpiling guns, scouting targets, and even filming a martyrdom-style video — as they plotted a massacre on the continent to mirror the horrific October 7 attack on Israel, according to a bombshell investigation released last week. The chilling scheme, uncovered through a joint probe by European intelligence agencies and reported by Swiss outlet Neue Zürcher Zeitung, spanned at least seven countries: Greece, Cyprus, Germany, Austria, Denmark, Poland, and Britain. The terror group eyed the second anniversary of its 2023 rampage, October 7, 2025, as a possible attack...

In this new video, Victor Davis Hanson dismantles New York City Mayor Mamdani’s divisive Fourth of July speech, exposing the glaring hypocrisy of a multi-millionaire bicoastal elite lecturing the working class on systemic exclusion. Hanson pulls back the curtain on how his successes completely undermine his tribalist narrative. Don’t miss it. Victor, let's take the most controversial one that's gotten some attention, though I don't know how widespread this is, and this is New York City Mayor Mandami's prepared remarks for the 4th of July. And here, if I just bear with me, here's what he said. Um -- I'm...

More than 5,000 people have signed a petition launched by relatives of 9/11 victims urging organizers to exclude NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani from the 25th anniversary memorial.

Everything You Need to Know About Gaza’s Fatality Numbers In recent weeks, two talking points have spread rapidly across media and social platforms. The first is the claim that the IDF now accepts Hamas’ assertion that 70,000 people were killed in Gaza. This was widely framed as a decisive moment, a supposed confession by Israel that Hamas’ figures were correct all along. That narrative is false. The IDF did not affirm Hamas’ fatality count and explicitly rejected the idea that a vague remark by an unnamed official constituted confirmation of anything. More importantly, even if one were to accept a...

Turkey’s Hypocrisy Exposed by Israeli Recognition of Armenian Genocide Israel's recognition of the Armenian Genocide is an important step toward historical truth and exposes the profound hypocrisy of Turkey's genocide accusations against Israel while it continues to deny its own history. Turkey’s Hypocrisy Exposed by Israeli Recognition of Armenian Genocide Key Takeaways: Israel’s recognition of the Armenian Genocide affirms an essential historical truth. Acknowledging one of the twentieth century’s first genocides reinforces the principle that mass atrocities must be remembered honestly, regardless of political convenience. Turkey’s genocide accusations against Israel are undermined by its own century-long denial of the Armenian...

WATTERS >> The Democratic Party is getting squeezed and they're not even putting up a fight. This is the new battle. HHS Secretary Bobby Kennedy joins us now. How you doing, Mr. Secretary? RFK >> I'm very good, Jassee. It's good to be back with you. WATTERS>> Good to see you. So, your father, your uncle fought communism hard. How much of a danger do you think this new breed of communism is here in America? RFK>> I'm very concerned. I don't think my father and my uncle would recognize the Democratic party today. And you know all the the...

It's entirely possible that Trump, the "Art of the Deal" master, never saw the details of the MoU --brokered by fake "friends" Qatar/Pakistan-- before blindly placing his confidence in JD Vance. Yet virtually no one argues that this deal is good for America. There is broad consensus across Republicans, Democrats, conservatives, and many others that the sole beneficiary would be Iran's oppressive regime and its jihadist proxies. No one believes that the $300 billion would simply be spent on "reconstruction." Just like the regime has been doing with Obama's cash release for its annihilation nuclear program, ballistic missiles, shahed drones...

The FBI arrested three men on Friday on charges of conspiring to provide material support to the Islamic State (ISIS), according to a statement from the United States Department of Justice (DOJ). Bisaam Ghafoor, 21, Elias Shamsaldeen, 21, and Bereen Dzayee, 25, were taken into custody following a complaint filed in the District of Kansas. They were accused of 'conspiring to provide material support to terrorism' after collectively giving over $2,000 in cryptocurrency to an individual believed to be a member of ISIS. The allegations in the complaint were found to be substantiated, and the funds were proven to have...

Recent polling, conducted by the venerable Harris organization for Harvard University, reveals a stark and troubling fault line across American public opinion. In the Israel-Hamas conflict, more than seven in 10 Americans stand with Israel, with the strongest backing coming from older citizens and Republican voters. Yet among Democrats, support for Hamas reaches a disturbing 36 percent. For young adults aged 18 to 24, 54% actually side with Hamas over Israel. This is not a minor disagreement. It represents a serious national emergency. Nearly four in 10 Democrats aligning with a terrorist group against the Middle East’s only thriving democracy...

Shamim Mafi, 44, was arrested at LAX for attempting to smuggle drones, bombs, and millions of rounds of ammunition to Sudan on behalf of Iran.

Edmund Fitton-Brown @EFittonBrown Oh dear. Iskandar323 picked the wrong jurisdiction in which to become one of the world’s leading pro-Hamas propagandists. The #UAE takes a dim view of foreigners who abuse their hospitality by supporting terrorist groups. It would be a pity if the Emiratis learned his identity. Quote WikiBias @WikiBias · Mar 23 Investigations have revealed that Iskandar323, the recently banned editor, who worked to rewrite Jewish history and whitewash the Iranian regime and Hamas, is an English journalist based in the United Arab Emirates. Our eyes are wide open for all others. More to come.

The NYT Misrepresents the History of the Israeli–Palestinian Conflict. A welter of factual errors and misleading judgments has produced a distorted description of the 1948 War. Benny Morris. 27 Feb 2024. As we saw from the savage Hamas assault on southern Israel on 7 October, the Palestinians have certainly been active protagonists in their more-than-century-long battle against Zionism and Israel. But the New York Times would have it otherwise. Indeed, the underlying narrative in their magazine piece of 6 February 2024, “The Israeli-Palestinian Conflict and the Long Shadow of 1948,” is that the Palestinians have always lacked agency and have...

“The Iranian regime is begging for a ceasefire; there are internal conflicts among the leadership there," he said. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Saturday evening that there was “still more to do” in Iran as US and Iranian negotiators met in Islamabad to discuss a potential ceasefire. “The campaign is not over yet. Iran wanted to eliminate us. Now it is fighting to survive. We still have more to do. We were the first to break the barrier of fear to act in Iran. I remember the excitement, the pride.” Iran wanted to eliminate us. Now it is fighting...

Rep. Ilhan Omar’s (D-Minn.) family has a direct connection to genocide in Somaliland. And she herself has proudly fraternized with an architect of that genocide while visiting Somalia. Vice President JD Vance confirmed this week that evidence definitely implicates Omar in immigration fraud. Afterwards, the Republic of Somaliland offered an extradition deal with the United States, so they could help bring her to justice. And if you don’t know the difference between Somaliland and Somalia, or why the former has a grudge against both Omar and her whole family, prepare to be sickened at the sort of murderous trash we...

By the 'grace' of Islamic lobby OIC: genocidal Hamas-"Palestine" [Jallad] to win UN so called "human rights" top job. The 'OIC lobby' and its allies are once again hijacking the United Nations to push a viciously anti-Israel, pro-terror agenda—this time by installing a vocal defender of Hamas terrorism as a supposed “human rights expert.” On March 31, 2026, the UN Human Rights Council is poised to appoint Palestinian academic Zeina Jallad as Special Rapporteur on the negative impact of unilateral coercive measures. This is a mandate originally cooked up in 2014 via an 'Iran-sponsored resolution', designed not to protect rights...

The Israeli Foreign Ministry continues to try to draw international attention to the heartbreaking plight of Syrian Christians, who face persecution and even murder at the hands of the Syrian government and rogue jihadis every day.

Under President Trump's visionary leadership, America and Israel are acting together in Iran with great determination and unprecedented strength. Operation Rising Line is designed to remove the existential threats posed by the Ayatollah regime, the regime that has waged war against America and Israel and the people of Iran for 47 years. It chants death to America, death to Israel, and it delivers death to its own people. Our goals are three. One, removing the nuclear threat. Second, removing the ballistic missile threat and removing both of these threats before they're buried deep underground and become immune from aerial attack....

Less than a week after 2 Jews were assaulted in San Jose, graffiti calling for the eradication of a "minimum" of 5 million Jews was left on a wall at SJSU. Israel National News. Published: Mar 15, 2026, 9:38 AM (GMT+2) Graffiti calling to "kill all Jews" and to "make Osama proud" was found at San Jose State University last week, ABC News 7 reported. The antisemitic graffiti included statements that March 11 would be like September 11 and that the "goal" is the death of "5 million Jews, minimum." The hateful message also included two Stars of David that...

'Up to 60 percent of enriched uranium is still stored in tunnels in Isfahan, allowing Iran to produce a nuclear bomb in a short period of time,' says Rafael Grossi, head of the International Atomic Energy Agency.
