Greta Thunberg is an antisemitic weasel, but some disagree

Again, though, none of this is a surprise. She isn’t the first socialist megalomaniac to dream of destroying Jews and, sadly, she won’t be the last.

 Andrea Widburg - American Thinker   "I am second to none in my disrespect for Greta Thunberg. She’s a creepy little mutant, the product of ardent socialist parents, who cured herself of a mental breakdown by terrifying the world’s youth with unfounded predictions of a climate apocalypse that can be cured only by giving her and her fellow travelers unfettered power (and cash). Given her background and affiliations, it comes as no surprise to learn that, in addition to her paranoia and megalomania, she’s also a genocidal antisemite.

What you currently see if you go to Greta’s X thread is a photo of her with three other broken-looking young women, all of them standing on the side of those unfree Palestinians:"

Seems good to Ms. Widberg to show the photo like this.

But stick to your guns! Opinion | Thousands Speak Out: ‘We as Students Are Sickened by the Actions of Hamas’ - The New York Times (nytimes.com)

College students sign a letter condemning the silence of many university administrations.
. . ."We as students are sickened by the actions of Hamas. We are unable to look away from the massacre of our friends and family from afar, and our desperate calls go to voice mail as we try to cope with our isolation from our families and now our own campus communities.
"Many university administrations have yet to call out the atrocities committed by Hamas and provide us with the support we desperately need. These same universities that were quick to condemn events like the Russian invasion of Ukraine and recent Supreme Court decisions now remain silent.
"Just as they have failed to condemn the actions of Hamas in Israel, they have yet to condemn the students who are celebrating these atrocities on campus.
"Since administrators have failed to speak to us, it’s time we speak to them. Condemn Hamas. Condemn the students supporting Hamas. Support your Jewish and Israeli students. We are grieving, and the only thing that hurts almost as much as the cries of our brothers and sisters is your silence."
Alec Bachman
Samuel Ben-Ur
The writers are students at Williams College and Tufts University, respectively. The letter was also signed by more than 5,000 students from more than 650 colleges and universities.

Former Israeli PM Had This Message for CNN Over Their Gaza Coverage

 Former Israeli PM Had This Message for CNN Over Their Gaza Coverage (townhall.com)

. . ."And yet, CNN and other outlets refuse, heavily implying, if not outright saying, the jury is still out. What jury? The other side is terrorists who have used you to ignite protests across the Muslim world, uniting the usual suspects who have wanted to destroy Israel since its creation. Did I mention that the Muslim night of rage could’ve put innocent lives at risk? Angry protesters besieged the American embassies in Baghdad and Beirut.   

Host Anderson Cooper tried to peddle these “two sides” talking points with former Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett, who took the CNN host to school for peddling nonsensical fake news. He also delivered an analogy that shuts down the media’s game over the Gaza story. He also had this message to CNN: "Go do your goddamn job"(via Daily Caller) [emphasis mine]: " . . .


WATCH: Even Ex-CNN Host Brian Stelter Blasts Media for 'Atrocious' Gaza Hospital Reporting – RedState   . . ."You know, sometimes Dan, you're out there criticizing the media and I want to defend the media. But there is no defense here. This was an atrocious series of mistakes by many different major newsrooms all around the same time on Tuesday. And unfortunately, I don't think there's been a follow-up or accountability to make sure doesn't happen again.

"I've noticed oftentimes in breaking news stories, breaking news scenarios when information is lowest interest is highest. By the time we actually know the facts, people move on. Well, this was one of those cases, but it was even worse because when the stakes are highest, it seems the standards were the lowest and it should be the opposite. The standard should be the highest when the stakes are as high as they are. Right." 

The NY Times, paper of some sort of record

The New York Times, along with the rest of the corporate state media, has long been among the worst purveyors of not just misinformation but also disinformation, the distinction being that the latter is intended to deceive.

 

 Schadenfreude: Elon Musk Strips The New York Times of Its ‘Verified’ Badge – PJ Media   "What’s good for the goose is good for the gander!

"Via Washington Post: (emphasis added):

The social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter, has removed the gold “verified” badge from the New York Times’ account amid ongoing complaints about the news organization from X owner Elon Musk.

The badge was the only symbol distinguishing the Times’ 55-million-follower account from impostors amid two major global conflicts in Israel and Ukraine. X has hosted and helped amplify a flood of false information related to the Israel-Gaza war, some of which Musk has personally endorsed.

The badge was removed Tuesday without notice, a person familiar with the change said. The Washington Post, the Wall Street Journal, the Associated Press, CNN, Bloomberg, Vox and other news organizations still had their gold badges as of Thursday afternoon. Times accounts related to coverage of world news, health and other subjects still show “verified” badges. . .

. . ."Yet the war in Ukraine has renewed questions of whether the Times should return a Pulitzer awarded 90 years ago for work by Walter Duranty, its charismatic chief correspondent in the Soviet Union.

"He is the personification of evil in journalism," says Oksana Piaseckyj, a Ukrainian-American activist who came to the U.S. as a child refugee in 1950. She is among the advocates for the return of the award. "We think he was like the originator of fake news." . . .

Duranty died in 1957. As the Soviet Union cracked apart decades later, historians pried loose the full nature of the Ukrainian famine from censored archives. Scholars drilled down too on Duranty's role in deflecting attention from the humanitarian crisis and blame from Stalin.  "He was not only the greatest liar among the journalists in Moscow, but he was the greatest liar of any journalist that I ever met in 50 years of journalism," said the late Malcolm Muggeridge in 1982 for a documentary produced by two Ukrainian-Canadian groups.

She is among the advocates for the return of the award. "We think he was like the originator of fake news." . . .

What MSNBC is to news, Duranty was to the Soviet Union. As Joy Reid is ongoing to race in America, Duranty/ NY Times has been to political science in America. TD

. . ."The New York Times, along with the rest of the corporate state media, has long been among the worst purveyors of not just misinformation but also disinformation, the distinction being that the latter is intended to deceive. The outlet’s COVID-19 lies, just to name one topic, are legendary. The editors couldn’t have been more wrong if they had tried; they got it wrong on purpose in the service of the Public Health™ authorities and the pharmaceutical industry.

"The same can be said of every war The Times has lied the public into and every Democrat scam it has papered over. No entity deserves to lose its Gold Badge or whatever stupid social media credential de jour more than the NYT." . . .

UPDATE: The New York Times Just Destroyed Its Credibility—and Much More | Opinion (newsweek.com)  

 "There was a mainstream media race to the bottom recently, and The New York Times was the ringleader. The consequences were immediate, terrible, and may be felt for years to come.

 "Announcing the horrifying news of an explosion at a hospital in Gaza, the Times made a series of deliberate and unconscionable choices that contorted the story, and in a way that may have contributed to lost lives.

"Their headline "Israeli Strike Kills Hundreds in Hospital, Palestinians Say" is abominable journalistic malpractice. Think of the editorial decisions involved here: repeating an inflammatory claim (an "Israeli strike"), one that is highly likely to provoke a violent response, one that is unsubstantiated and heavily disputed, and subtly bending the rules of writing by burying the extraordinarily suspect source of this allegation as an afterthought at the end of the headline. 

"Think of the decision to further whitewash the accusers by attributing the claim to generalized "Palestinians" rather than the "terrorist group Hamas," which was the actual source, and which is defined as a terrorist group by the U.S. government and numerous other Western allies.

"As if there were any lingering doubt about who they are after Oct. 7." . . .

“Welcome to 2030. I own nothing, have no privacy, and life has never been better.”

 Diane L. Gruber (substack.com)

"Below is an article, written in 2016, that is on the World Economic Forum’s (WEF) website.  I have not edited it.  Word for word this tells you what the Globalists have in mind for YOU.  It was written by Ida Auken, a member of Denmark’s Parliament. . ."


Once in a while I get annoyed about the fact that I have no real privacy. No where I can go and not be registered. I know that, somewhere, everything I do, think and dream of is recorded. I just hope that nobody will use it against me.

"Welcome to the year 2030.  Welcome to my city - or should I say, "our city". I don't own anything. I don't own a car. I don't own a house. I don't own any appliances or any clothes.

"It might seem odd to you, but it makes perfect sense for us in this city. Everything you considered a product, has now become a service. We have access to transportation, accommodation, food and all the things we need in our daily lives. One by one all these things became free, so it ended up not making sense for us to own much.

"First communication became digitized and free to everyone. Then, when clean energy became free, things started to move quickly. Transportation dropped dramatically in price. It made no sense for us to own cars anymore, because we could call a driverless vehicle or a flying car for longer journeys within minutes. We started transporting ourselves in a much more organized and coordinated way when public transport became easier, quicker and more convenient than the car. Now I can hardly believe that we accepted congestion and traffic jams, not to mention the air pollution from combustion engines. What were we thinking?

"Sometimes I use my bike when I go to see some of my friends. I enjoy the exercise and the ride. It kind of gets the soul to come along on the journey. Funny how some things seem never seem to lose their excitement: walking, biking, cooking, drawing and growing plants. It makes perfect sense and reminds us of how our culture emerged out of a close relationship with nature." . . .

Jimmy, Barry & Joe Love Iran

 Diane L. Gruber; Substack

The spiritual leader of the Islamic Revolution, Ayatollah Khomeini, 1979.

. . ."Completely ignoring the best interests of America, and following his humanitarian impulses, Carter invited the deposed Shah of Iran to come to the US for cancer treatment.  The Shah had fled from Iran to Egypt several months earlier when he was faced with an army mutiny and violent demonstrations against his secular government.

Just days after the Shah was deposed the spiritual leader of the Islamic Revolution, Ayatollah Khomeini, returned from his 14 years exile, spent mostly in Iraq, and took control of Iran.  The hardline Islamist government created during the Carter Administration is still in control in today’s Iran.

"Jimmy’s lack of foreign policy backbone can be directly blamed for creation of the Iran Hostage Crisis which lingered during the last 444 days of his presidency. Islamic Revolutionary students, enraged by Carter’s invitation to the deposed Shah, stormed the U.S. Embassy just hours after the Shah landed in New York City on November 4, 1979.  These thugs took 66 Americans as hostages, holding 52 of them UNTIL THE DAY AFTER REAGAN WAS SWORN IN.

"Just as Russia, China, Afghanistan, Iran & other enemies have no respect for Biden, the new Islamic government had no respect for President Carter and the military that Carter had weakened.  On January 21, 1981, knowing that the incoming president, Ronald Reagan, would not tolerate such disrespect toward America, the Islamic goons released all hostages. When a strong leader like Reagan & Trump returns to the Oval Office, Russia, China & Iran are likely to back down." . . .

. . ."Senator Joe Biden had been in office for four years when Carter was sworn in on January 20, 1977.  They were and are both Democrats, ever pushing destructive tax & spend policies, and ever intent on weakening America’s strength on the national stage in preparation for turning America over to the New World Order (ie, Global government wherein people have no voice).

"Foreign policy experts back then (and historians now) blamed Carter's policies for failing to stop the revolution that turned Iran into the Islamic dictatorship that we are STILL dealing with.  This led directly to the hostage crisis wherein 52 Americans were captured & held for 444 days, until the day after Reagan was inaugurated.  Biden's inexplicable withdrawal from Afghanistan created the current hostage crisis wherein thousands of Americans and our allies are still trapped by the Taliban, assuming they are still alive. NOW, Biden has created another hostage crisis wherein unknown numbers of Israelis & Americans are being held hostage by Hamas, assuming they are still alive." . . .

New York Times Patiently Awaiting Zoom Call From Hamas To See What They Should Print Today; Bumper stickers?

  Babylon Bee

NEW YORK, NY — The staff of the New York Times spent the morning patiently waiting by the computer, waiting for the call from Hamas to see what the terrorists would like to have printed on the front page today.

" 'No fingers on the keyboard until Hamas calls!" declared Chief Editor Joe Khan. "We don't post a single word unless we've sourced it directly from the terrorists on the ground - understood?"

 "At long last, the Zoom app began ringing with a phone call from a Hamas spokesman. "Hello! Allahu Ackbar! Okay, what message do you guys want out there?" asked reporter Gene Okerlund. "Yes, yes, I know you want it to say ‘Death to Israel,' but is there anything more specific you want? Any horrific atrocities you guys perpetrated by accident but want to pin on the Jews? Great! Oh yeah, we can inflate those death tolls. We'll have the whole Middle East rioting in no time!"

"Sources with the newspaper confirmed this has been a longstanding arrangement between the publication and horribly evil terrorist organizations. "We have the highest standards of integrity here at the New York Times," said Mr. Khan. "If you're a terrorist, you can rest assured that we will print exactly what you tell us, word for word. No matter how absurd the lie is, no matter if the lie could literally lead to wider war and death - you can count on us to print what you say."

"At publishing time, The New York Times editorial staff was preparing to go with a new front-page story titled "Israel Uses Giant Zionist Space Laser To Kill Eleventy-Billion Palestinian Orphans And Puppies."

Liberals Replace Star Of David On 'Coexist' Sticker With Hamas Paraglider | Babylon Bee

. . ."According to makers of the sticker, the paraglider symbol of murderous Hamas terrorists encapsulates the freedom and tolerance that all true liberals yearn for. "This change helps convey how serious we are about peaceful coexistence," said sticker designer Deandra Martinez. "We are so committed to peaceful coexistence we will commit mass murder of a particular ethnic group if necessary. We're just one genocide away from utopia, folks."

"As of printing time, Rep. Rashida Tlaib had been seen covering flyers showing the faces of hostages with the new 'COEXIST' stickers."

Is there no guilt over disgusting pro-Palestinians?

 Melanie Phillips:  Hamas, he said, "are not militants. They are not freedom fighters. They are terrorists. There are not two sides to these events. There is no question of balance. I stand with Israel."

“A lot of us are not going to forget this!” She ranted.

'Dozens of protests erupted outside of western embassies around the world Tuesday night in the wake of the tragedy.' . . .

Bodies lie in ravaged Israeli kibbutz (yahoo.com)  . . ."Four days on from the onslaught, the sights and sounds of a live battle still present.

"And the stench of bodies heavy in the air.

"Major General Itai Veruv describes what they found once they had control.

" '’You see the babies, the mother, the fathers, in their bedrooms, in their protection roofs and how the terrorist kills them, it's not a war, it's not a battle field. It's a massacre, it's a terror activity. So you can look on yourself, it is something that I never saw in my life.’’

"Bodies of villagers and gunmen lie scattered throughout the neighborhood, with houses and vehicles destroyed.

"Troops were going house to house to retrieve civilian bodies in body bags.

"Unable to do so before as they were still fighting gunmen and working through booby-traps.

"Soldier Ayer Avriel told Reuters the average age of the community was 18 to 25.

 "‘’This neighborhood was brutally attacked and (people) slaughtered. RPG (rocket-propelled grenade) were shot. They burned everything and made sure that no one got out of here alive, and you can see the brutality. See for yourself."

"The signs of the rampage were also evident inside other kibbutz’s, like Be’rei." . . .

"But, like many other brands in the mainstream media, The View has become a victim of left-wing ideology, filling their shows with aggressive agenda pushing, bizarre claims and excessive virtue signaling.

Kayleigh McEnany: Omar and Tlaib won't condemn this


The Hamas, Arab, and BBC Big Lie About Israel and the Bombed Gaza Hospital -

  The American Spectator | USA News and Politics    "A guy stops his friend and relates excitedly: “Did you hear about Harvey? His wife just drove his brand-new Tesla into a swamp!”

"The friend responds: “First, it wasn’t Harvey. It was Frank. Second, it wasn’t his wife. It was his mother-in-law. Third, it wasn’t brand new; it was second-hand. Fourth, it wasn’t a Tesla. It was a Prius. Fifth, it wasn’t into a swamp. It was over a cliff. And sixth, it never happened.”

"That is what Israel has had to deal with for 75 years: Arab Big Lies gobbled up and regurgitated all-too-willingly by a left-wing anti-Israel mass media that has no soul and lies without hesitation if it sells newspapers, gets online clicks, likes, and followers. The bigger the lie, the more the clicks and followers. People attribute the Big Lie concept to the German Nazis of Hitler, especially his chief liar, Joseph Goebbels. But the Western lying media gobbles more than Goebbels. They are despicable falsifiers whose fake news incites violence and promotes catastrophe. Remember Trump colluding with Putin?

"In the Middle Eastern context, the terrorist Arabs lie, and BBC and CNN and all of them jump in to repeat the lies. Perhaps the most infamous of all was when the New York Times blared an Associated Press photo, caption, and story about an Israeli soldier beating the living daylights out of some poor innocent Arab kid, whom the photo showed was all bloodied up. The New York Times story said it was another example of how the Israelis send their soldiers onto the Temple Mount and desecrate holy Islamic soil and beat up on Arabs who are there only to pray sweetly.

"Some sharp-eyed Zionists (i.e., people who believe that Jews have a right to live in Israel just as Black Lives Matter has a right to live in Chicago and Ben & Jerry’s has a right to live on ancestral Native American lands in Vermont) noticed an oddity. If the guy with the Hebrew uniform, menacingly waving his billy club at the bleeding teen, was an Israeli soldier gone wild on the Temple Mount, how was it that the photo showed a gas station in the background? Gas stations on the Temple Mount? Really?

"So it turned out that — surprise! — the New York Times was lying. It wasn’t the Temple Mount but a Jerusalem street in an Arab neighborhood. The guy with the nightstick was not an army soldier but a civilian police officer. The kid bleeding was not an Arab beaten by the Israeli brandishing the club but Tuvia Grossman, a Jewish kid from America who had just been assaulted and battered badly by a gang of murderous Arabs. And the cop was waving his club at the Arab attackers to get them away from the Jewish kid before they killed him." . . .

But why this hatred for the Jewish people?
Answer: Satan hates what God loves

 Why I Stand by the Nation of Israel and the Jewish People (harvest.org)  . . ."Now we have Hamas committing murders and unthinkable atrocities toward Jewish women, children, and even babies in Israel. It is pure evil. But God always intervenes—He raised up Moses to deliver the Jews from Pharaoh and Egypt. He raised up Queen Esther to use her influence to save her fellow Jews from the plot to destroy them.


"After the Holocaust, God raised up the Jews themselves to return to their homeland and become a nation again on May 14, 1948.

"But why this hatred for the Jewish people?
Answer: Satan hates what God loves. God loves and chose the Jews as His very own people.
Why? God Himself gives the answer: “The Lord did not set his heart on you and choose you because you were more numerous than other nations, for you were the smallest of all nations! Rather, it was simply that the Lord loves you, and he was keeping the oath he had sworn to your ancestors. That is why the Lord rescued you with such a strong hand from your slavery and from the oppressive hand of Pharaoh, king of Egypt” (Deuteronomy 7:7–8 NLT). 

"Antisemitism is from the pit of Hell. I am not Jewish, but as a Gentile and believer in Jesus Christ, I have been “grafted in” to the promises given to the Jewish people by the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob." . . .

From Rodgers and Hammerstein's "South Pacific" "You've Got To Be Carefully Taught" - SOUTH PACIFIC (1958)

Officials Say Hate Crimes Against Jews Are Growing In The Aftermath Of Gaza Violence : NPR    "In Skokie, Ill., it was a shattered window at a synagogue. In Bal Harbour, Fla., it was four men yelling, "Die Jew," at a man in a skullcap, then threatening to rape his wife and daughter. And in Midtown Manhattan, it was a group of people attacking a Jewish man in the middle of the street in broad daylight." . . . 

So why are Jews hated so much? (mid-day.com)   

Do this simple thought experiment. Five hungry people who have not eaten for a month are at your door, begging for food. They are a Jew, an Indian Muslim, a Rohingya, a Chinese (Buddhist), a black African Christian and a white-skinned Harvard-educated atheist.  You have a simple vegetarian meal, but barely enough for one person. Which one would you feed?

Jews and Blacks: Their Landlord AND Their Friend

  Ann Coulter

The Anti-Defamation League (business model: defame white Christians) and the Southern Poverty Law Center (business model: defame white Christians) have long defended the systematic murder of white farmers in South Africa, claiming that anyone who mentions it is promoting a “racist conspiracy theory.”

    " I’m hoping liberals’ instinct for taking the side of barbarism against civilization has taken a hit after seeing so many stories of the BLM movement bellowing their love for Palestinian terrorists paragliding into Israel to butcher, rape and kidnap thousands of Israeli civilians, including infants and elderly dementia patients. It’s hard not to notice that the most unrestrained celebrations of the Hamas killers are coming from BLM members, the “colonized,” diversity beneficiaries, the “Indigenous,” non-Western immigrants and other affirmative action cases.

"You unleashed ’em, liberals!

"After George Floyd died and was deified on May 25, 2020, the left’s coddling of black people (and the black-adjacent) went into overdrive. For three years, this Brahmin caste has been able to get away with anything.

"They’ve gleefully dynamited historic statues, destroyed industries with their racist “equity, not equality” demands, bullied their way onto corporate boards and into every TV commercial, and openly discriminated against white men to elevate the incompetent.

"They’ve shamelessly grafted multiple millions of dollars from post-Floyd “causes” like Black Lives Matter and Ibram X. Kendi’s Center for Antiracist Research at Boston University.

"They’ve succeeded in getting the media and universities to ban words like “picnic,” “chief,” “American,” “master bedroom” and “English department.” Seriously.

"And that’s to say nothing of their penalty-free shopliftingcarjackingmaiming and murdering.

"But say one little thing wrong about Israel, and everybody gets upset!" . . .
