The Knesset’s National Security Committee, chaired by MK Tzvika Foghel, on Monday approved for a first reading the "Death Penalty for Terrorists" bill. The bill stipulates that “a terrorist who murders an Israeli citizen out of racism or hostility toward a public, with the intent to harm the State of Israel or the revival of the Jewish people in its homeland, shall be sentenced to death, and to this punishment alone.” Additionally, the proposal amends the law so that a death sentence could be imposed by a military court with a simple majority of judges, rather than a unanimous decision....

I doubt most people realize that Nigeria, located in West Africa, is the world’s sixth most populous country, with around 213.5 million people. Over 53% of the population is Muslim. That’s never a good thing for the remaining population in a country, because Muslims do not believe in pluralism. Lately, Nigeria’s Muslims have been on a rampage, slaughtering Christians left and right. President Trump announced yesterday that the U.S. will intervene and will do so aggressively if necessary. Democrats were unimpressed—they don’t believe there’s a genocide—but Nigeria’s president, having first rejected the demand, just announced his willingness to accept the...

There is a hatred in America that still dares to speak its name — loudly, publicly, and without fear of consequence. It doesn’t hide behind euphemisms or coded language. It mocks, it smears and it flourishes in the open. That hatred is Islamophobia. Today, it remains one of the last socially and publicly acceptable forms of bigotry.Muslims are a community that leading political figures can still slander on air, that journalists can frame as suspect by default, and that candidates can use as props in their culture-war campaigns without major consequences or jeopardizing their careers.Recently, Andrew Cuomo, New York City...

President Donald Trump warned that if the Nigerian government continued to allow Christians in the country to be killed, the United States military “may very well” go into Nigeria “guns-a-blazing.” In a post on Truth Social, Trump instructed the Department of War to “prepare for possible action,” adding that if the U.S. does attack, “it will be fast, vicious, and sweet.” Trump also threatened to “stop all aid and assistance to Nigeria” if the Nigerian government continues to allow the killing of Christians. “If the Nigerian Government continues to allow the killing of Christians, the U.S.A. will immediately stop all...

Tucker Carlson markets his reporting as "real journalism." Yet while he didn't go completely off the deep end in his recent so-called 9/11 documentary, he fell in with big-name grifters who ignore the facts that destroy their 9/11 conspiracy theories. He did little to further serious inquiry into how government agencies and officials failed to thwart the attacks. Carlson proclaims the 9/11 Commission Report "is a complete joke" and demands a second commission as if it would somehow be "bipartisan" and not another "cover up." Tucker did some covering up of his own. In August, it was widely reported that...
