The most destructive power in the world may not be nuclear power, chemical warfare, biological weapons, or any modern invention of military science. Such weapons are terrifying because they can destroy cities, poison nations, and leave generations wounded. Yet hatred has done something even more widespread: it has entered homes, governments, religions, schools, courts, streets, churches, and nations. It does not need a missile silo, a laboratory, or a battlefield. It only needs a willing heart. A bomb may explode once, but hatred keeps reproducing itself. It passes from father to son, from teacher to student, from preacher to hearer,...

Trump shared criticism describing Tucker Carlson as obsessively anti-Israel and ashamed of America following his departure from the Republican Party. Israel National News. Jul 27, 2026 President Donald Trump shared a social media post on Monday strongly criticizing Tucker Carlson following the anti-Israel commentator's announcement that he is leaving the Republican Party. The post, written by American media personality Wayne Allyn Root, references a New York Post editorial about Carlson, and says the commentator "caught a case of 'Jew Derangement Syndrome.'" Which "led him down a dark, destructive path. A conservative patriot hero who destroyed his life and committed career...

The forgotten story of Andrew Jackson’s first military campaign in Asia. In the winter of 1832, a merchantman flying a Danish flag pulled into a port in Quallah Battoo in the Aceh Sultanate of what is now known as Indonesia. The vessel had set out from New York City half a year ago, had circumnavigated the Cape of Good Hope, and had finally arrived here. That the vessel was named for a river in America did not strike the locals as strange and when its officers left the ship after rubbing themselves with tar to look like disreputable sailors, claiming...

The two ideologies doing battle against the modern West have a shared belief: It’s going to get a lot worse (often with their help) before it magically gets better. arx’s theory of immiseration and Twelver Shia eschatology share a common structural feature: both teach that history moves forward only through a period of necessary, progressive worsening, after which a total redemptive inversion suddenly occurs. Everything else follows from that single shared manifesto. “Redemptive inversion” is the common core. It means the existing order is not improved by degrees; it is completely reversed. Workers’ misery and Islam-defined injustice are inverted into...

It's been coming for a while, but this week, the once-conservative firebrand Tucker Carlson has doubled down on a version of reality that would make Iran's mullahs blush. Carlson used an appearance on the East Meets West with Olga and Tara podcast to unload on a provision in the fiscal year 2027 National Defense Authorization Act that would expand defense-technology cooperation between the United States and Israel. His verdict? Lawmakers who back the measure are acting against America's own interests, effectively merging our nations’ militaries.Carlson didn't stop at policy disagreement. He accused the Republican Party of handing the country's sovereignty...

US House of Representatives passes a $1.15T defense bill with provision deepening Pentagon-Israel weapons tech cooperation and funding $750M for joint defense programs.

Maria Shahbaz, a 13-year-old Christian who was forced to convert to Islam after being abducted last year, must be provided with access to her family and psychological support, Members of the European Parliament demanded while passing a new resolution on the human rights situation in Pakistan earlier this month.

President Trump. Well, I have to say that I am on the side of Israel. I've been on the side of Israel, really, my whole life. And we are going to get a solution, and it's going to be a solution, hopefully, that's good for everybody. But it's time to stop.

Evangelical Christian leader Laurie Cardoza-Moore has called on President Trump to distance himself from recent statements about Israel made by his Vice President. ..She also objected to Vance's reported statement that those who disagreed with him over the issue could "go to hell," describing it as "a curse against the entire People of Israel." Concluding her remarks, Cardoza-Moore called on both Trump and Vance to take action. "Now is the time for the President to publicly distance himself from JD's words, and for Vance to apologize and sJul 21, 2026, 3:37 PMwitch gears.

A resurfaced video of New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s (D) Islamist accountability partner sparked condemnation and further proved Hizzoner to be a “Trojan Horse” for extremists in America.

A decades-old television interview featuring a young Donald Trump has resurfaced after the US President launched strikes on Iran. The 1980 interview reveals Trump was calling for US military intervention during the height of the Iranian hostage crisis. In the exchange with TV host Rona Barrett, Trump sharply criticised the US government’s handling of the crisis. The crisis saw 52 American diplomats and citizens being held captive following the 1979 Iranian Revolution. “That they hold our hostages is just absolutely and totally ridiculous,” Trump said at the time. “That this country sits back and allows a country such as Iran...

New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani, the city’s second-youngest mayor, sits at the opposite end of the spectrum from George Deek and preaches hate. George Deek is an anomaly: a young Christian Arab who became Israel’s first Christian Arab ambassador when he was appointed envoy to Azerbaijan in 2019. He could have been raised to hate Jews and Israel. He could have despised America. His journey is one everyone should know. He represents a generation of young people who are becoming today’s leaders. While attending a private event at the Friends of Zion Museum in Jerusalem to mark the launch of...

Former Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) on Saturday slammed Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s post commemorating two U.S. service members killed in Jordan as a result of Iranian strikes. “Godspeed, heroes. Their sacrifice only stiffens our resolve,” Hegseth wrote on social platform X. Greene said it was inappropriate to deem their deaths a “sacrifice.” “Sacrifice?? What the f— are you talking about?? They did not willingly sacrifice themselves. They were killed because of the war you, Trump, and the admin, are waging on behalf of a FOREIGN COUNTRY, Israel,” Greene wrote in a response on X. “You mean their deaths fuel...

It was Iran that broke the 60-day “comprehensive cease-fire” established by the Memorandum of Understanding by attacking ships in the Strait of Hormuz, period. Before the ink was dry on the MOU, which guaranteed open passage through the Strait of Hormuz, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard asserted Tehran’s control and ownership of the waterway and warned that merchant ships must obtain its OK to transit; then it started firing on vessels that didn’t comply. Blocking sea lanes reopened the war, and Israel had nothing to do with it. It’s also preposterous to charge that Jerusalem wants the war to drag on...

A neo-Nazi who may have interacted with would-be Donald Trump assassin Thomas Matthew Crooks online revealed himself to be Bjorn Leif Hjelmerud of Norway, The Daily Mail reported. Hjelmerud admitted to being in contact with a “Tom Crooks” YouTube account believed by some to be the 2024 Butler, Pennsylvania, shooter who nearly took the president’s life, the outlet reported citing a text exchange with Hjelmerud. A member of the white supremacist Nordic Resistance Movement, a U.S.-designated terrorist group, Hjelmerud egged on violent comments from “Tom Crooks” about overthrowing the government in a 2020 YouTube comments section. “If a gun and...

Although WWII is fast (and dangerously) becoming a misty memory, it’s probable that most people still know about the infamous “Tokyo Rose” (actually a collective of English-speaking Japanese women) who would broadcast reports intended to demoralize troops fighting the Japanese. In England, Lord Haw-Haw (another collective) broadcast false news intended to demoralize troops fighting the Nazis. Indeed, Wikipedia has a long list of famous fake-news spouting propagandists during wartime.Image created using AI.Today, propagandists don’t use radios; they use social media, but the tactic is the same: disseminate false material to demoralize the enemy. Yesterday, X, whether intentionally or not (I’ve...

Nathan Livingstone @TheMilkBarTV Three minutes of Tucker Carlson praising Islam. Worth viewing and is captioned.

Conservative podcaster Tucker Carlson intends to start a new political party after disavowing President Trump and the Republican Party over the Iran war. “I’m going to help build a third party,” Carlson said in an interview with the Columbia Journalism Review published Wednesday. “There should be a good-faith effort to figure out what benefits the country.”
