The Kamala campaign is just Oprah with even less substance so it was little surprise when the portly talk show racist showed up at the DNC to cheer her on to her target audience that has dedicated its lives to abortion and celebrity gossip. Oprah warned, “we won’t go back, we won’t be sent back, pushed back, bullied back, kicked back. We’re not going back.” Then the celebrity who spent a generation shamelessly milking her audience claimed that “values and character matter most of all.” And if anyone can find an example of that in Oprah’s life, good luck. “Let...

Khamenei never expected to be in such a difficult position during his rule. History shows that dictators, drunk on power, often think they can stay in control forever through repression, war, and creating crises. A tired IRGC spokesperson, using the Arbaeen observance (The Shia religious observance In Islam) as an excuse, promised revenge but hinted that it might take time. He said, “When it comes to revenge, time is on our side, and the wait might be longer than expected. Brave and wise commanders do not act rashly.” Khamenei is at an impasse due to: 1.A discontented society on the...

When the Jewish State has to go it alone. The New York Times insists that if Israel rejects the Bidenites’ advice to pull out of Gaza, it does so at its peril: “NYT admits US officials were wrong about the IDF in October, and wrong about Rafah, but thinks they are right now,” Elder of Ziyon, August 15, 2024:So these officials were completely wrong in October. They were also wrong about Israel’s taking Rafah, which they now admit is exactly what destroyed Hamas’ supply lines from Egypt – and cost far fewer casualties thna they had confidently predicted.By ignoring warnings...

US officials believe that Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar wants to strike a deal with Israel since he is "trapped" underground and running out of ammunition and supplies, Washington Post journalist David Ignatius wrote in an opinion column on Wednesday. With their desire for a deal to end their misery, Ignatius notes that Hamas is "playing a waiting game," hoping that Iran or Hezbollah will attack Israel, a move that would transform the battlefield. However, he writes that Iran will likely disappoint Hamas. He reports that US officials estimate that Iranian leaders have decided to delay their strike on Israel, deterred...

In a move that has sparked significant debate, the Biden-Harris administration has recently renewed a sanctions waiver for Iran’s state-controlled broadcaster, the Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting (IRIB). This decision, detailed in a non-public notification to Congress on August 9, 2024, permits the IRIB to engage in financial transactions essential for its operations, despite its role in disseminating anti-Israel and anti-Semitic propaganda. The IRIB, which oversees a broad range of media outlets, including television, radio, and news services, has faced criticism for broadcasting content that promotes radical and violent ideologies. Since Hamas’s unprecedented attack on Israel on October 7, 2023,...

Stephen Colbert was interviewing former Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) about her new book when shouting was heard from the audience, prompting producers to halt the interview. “The subject is on Israel and Palestine and if you have a seat, we have to go to commercial break,” a clearly peeved Colbert said.

Medea Benjamin, the co-founder of Code Pink, a radical anti-war group, told Breitbart News on Monday that she would not tell people to vote for, or against, Vice President Kamala Harris over her Israel policies.Benjamin led about two dozen Code Pink activists in the pro-Palestinian march from Union Park to the United Center, the venue for the Democratic National Convention.

Palestinian Arabs report several terrorists injured after explosive device goes off as they tried to plant it in the town of Tammun. Video

What do the stabbings in Israel, the assaults on Hindus in Bangladesh, the Muslim mobs roaming English cities and the massacres of Christians in Nigeria all have in common? The politically correct answer is nothing. And that’s why the politically correct answer condones, justifies or ignores the violence. Islamic attacks on non-Muslim majorities in India, Europe, America or Israel are justified as resistance by the oppressed, but violence by Muslim majorities against non-Muslim minorities in Indonesia, Nigeria and Bangladesh were justified by claims that the Muslim majority was economically disenfranchised. Muslim violence is always excused by false claims of victimhood....

Iran is in no position to fight a long-term war with Israel and even asked the US to intervene to prevent a possible large-scale Israeli retaliation to any Iranian attack, according to Mohsen Sazegara, founder of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), in an exclusive interview with The Jerusalem Post. The IRGC was founded shortly after the 1979 revolution in Iran to protect the Islamic Republic’s religious control over the country, and to act as a counterbalance to the regular Iranian Army, many of whose officers were still loyal to the Shah of Iran, and therefore could not be trusted...
