October 7th and the Future of the United States

 David Lanza - American Thinker

We must wake up to the fact that our television rerun culture will not immunize us from the consequences of allowing an open border. Nothing in our cultural establishment is equipped to stop the next October 7th or September 11th -- either in Israel or in the United States. Controlling the border is the only tactic that will give us a fighting chance.


. . ."The notorious Rep. Rashida Tlaib [and I suggest personally repugnant] is a member of a secretive Facebook group that unashamedly supports Hamas and its war goals. DSA congressional representatives including Tlaib, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Greg Casar, and Cori Bush refused to condemn pro-Hamas terrorists that violently attacked Democrat party headquarters in Washington D.C. in December. Democrat Rep. Jamaal Bowman publicly dismissed claims of Hamas atrocities as “propaganda.”

"Nationwide controversy erupted in December when the presidents of leading universities could not say that student calls for genocide would constitute harassment or justify expulsion. This policy is consistent with the conduct of other colleges that refuse or fail to protect Jewish students from harassment.

"The Washington Post removed the work of political cartoonist Michael Ramirez that mocked Hamas’ use of human shields. An NBC “journalist” was arrested in Israel for inciting and glorifying Hamas terror attacks. In December, fourteen attorneys general across the U.S. felt the need to warn the New York Times, AP, Reuters, and CNN that providing material support to overseas terrorists violated U.S. law.

"In October, it was discovered that the Department of Homeland Security employed and even promoted a former PLO official who began posting online in support of Hamas shortly after Hamas’ invasion of Israel.

"The genocidal phrase “from the river to the sea” has now become common at protests and rallies, in music, social media and even in Congress. One almost expects to hear it sung at an upcoming Super Bowl." . . .


UPDATE: Israeli minister ‘yelled at US Secretary of State’ over Rafah invasion, reports say (msn.com)    . . ."But Israel is insisting on launching a full-scale ground invasion in Rafah as it has elsewhere in Gaza, to try to destroy the last four Hamas battalions believed to be operating there and attempt to free the remaining 130 or so Israeli hostages.

"Prime Minister Netanyahu has publicly clashed with the Biden administration over the issue, saying Israel has “no choice” but to enter the city.

"Mr Netanyahu and Mr Biden will discuss Rafah over the phone on Thursday, according to Israeli media."
