Israel's 15 ceasefires -

 Don Surber (substack.com)

"Hamas-shielding AP inadvertently drew attention to the history of Israel’s ceasefires with Palestinians — pauses in a 76-year war. Palestinians use ceasefires to reload before breaking the truce by attacking Israel again. Israel reloads as well as it plans counterattacks.

AP has sided with the Palestinians for as long as I can remember. For over a decade, its bureau in Gaza City provided cover for Hamas — the latest name for Palestine’s terrorist army. Hamas governs Gaza. The continuing war against Israel has brought Shi’as (who back Hezbollah) together with Sunnis (Hamas) to fight a common enemy — Jews.

"In 2021, Israel finally unveiled the ruse, called AP, gave them an hour to pack up and leave, and then destroyed the building. The warning sadly allowed Hamas terrorists to escape as well.

"On May 21, 2021, the New York Post reported, “The Associated Press is taking heat for claiming it had no idea Hamas militants operated at the news agency’s Gaza headquarters destroyed by an Israeli airstrike — as US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken said Monday he has seen no evidence presented by Israel of the group’s presence in the building.”

"Blinken’s words reminded me of Curly saying, “Moe, Larry, I can’t see.” Asked why, he replied, “I got my eyes closed.” . . .

'The Elephant in the Room': The Real Source of Jew-Hatred in the Middle East

 

Gatestone Institute  "For [many Muslims], the Koran, every word of it, is the dictated word of Allah (God) as told by the Angel Jibril (Gabriel) to Allah's prophet Muhammad....

"Ten years ago, U.S. soldiers being deployed to the Middle East who flew to Qatar or Kuwait on the United Arab Emirates airline, before the UAE's supreme leadership in spearheading the Abraham Accords, reported that on maps in flight brochures, a country named Israel did not exist. Many seem to be working now to make that a reality, not just on a map." . . .

Antifa Punk Tries to Rally Muslims Against a Conservative - It Backfires Spectacularly When He Brings Up LGBT

  The Western Journal  "To be perfectly clear about this from the outset: There is nothing “good” or worthwhile to be had from the bloody and barbaric invasion of Israel at the hands of Hamas terrorists on the morning of Oct. 7.

"Countless innocent Israelis have been brutally murdered, lives have been irrevocably changed (for the worse), and things will likely get much bloodier before anything gets any better in the region.

"But if there’s one useful thing to emerge from the chaos and destruction, it’s that countless anti-Semites have willingly and loudly unmasked themselves.

"Believe it or not, this conflict has also created an opportunity to point and laugh at the far-left serpent eating its own tail." . . .

‘Kill the Babies!’ Anti-Israel Hecklers Taunt Jews at Stroller Protest

 'Kill the Babies!' Anti-Israel Hecklers Taunt Jews at Stroller Protest (breitbart.com)

"Hecklers shouted “kill the babies” to taunt a protest Sunday organized by Jews in Skokie, Illinois, to highlight the fact that 30 children, including babies, are being held hostage by the Palestinian terrorist group Hamas in Gaza.". . .

"Skokie, Illinois, is a disproportionately Jewish suburb of Chicago. It became internationally famous when neo-Nazis tried to march through the suburb in 1978, hoping to antagonize the large population of Holocaust survivors there; the neo-Nazis won a First Amendment case in federal court but called off their protest. The diverse and tolerant nature of the suburb has drawn many immigrants there, including Muslims; it now houses Chicago’s first major Muslim elementary school.

"The Jewish and Muslim communities live in peace, but radical pro-Palestinian activists have lately caused tensions between the two in the wake of the October 7 terrorist attack by Hamas in Israel.

"There are 241 hostages known to be in Gaza, including children, the elderly, and the disabled. Israel has vowed to make every effort to free them, even as it wages a war to destroy Hamas.

"A similar stroller protest to the one in Skokie was organized in Tel Aviv, Israel (as shown in the photo above the article).

"Pro-Palestinian protesters have been at pains to obscure information about the hostages, and have been filmed around the world ripping down posters showing the names and faces of the hostages." . . .

'Cruel and Hateful': Michigan Attorney General Demands Rashida Tlaib 'Retract' Genocidal Hamas Chant (breitbart.com)  "Michigan’s attorney general is calling on fellow Democrat Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) to “retract” the use of a “cruel and hateful” statement she used to sympathize with Palestinians that has a deeper, genocidal background.

“ 'From the river to the sea” is a popular chant used by sympathizers of the antisemitic Islamist militant group Hamas, who want to wipe Israel completely from the map. Tlaib used this phrase Friday in a video posted to X, formerly known as Twitter, in a plea to President Joe Biden to call for a ceasefire in the Israel-Hamas war. " . . .

Good luck getting rid of these guys.

David Axelrod Floats Idea Biden Could Drop Out Of 2024 Race (mediaite.com)

"Former senior White House adviser for Barack Obama, David Axelrod floated the idea on Sunday of President Joe Biden dropping out of 2024 race after a new poll showed him trailing Donald Trump in several states.

"A New York Times & Siena College poll released on Sunday showed Trump leading Biden in five out of the six battleground states, including Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, and Pennsylvania by leads of 3 to 10 points. The only battleground state in which Biden had a lead was Wisconsin, by 2 percentage points, according to the survey taken among registered voters.

"Axelrod took to X, formerly known as Twitter, to question whether Biden should drop out of the 2024 race noting, “It’s very late to change horses; a lot will happen in the next year that no one can predict & Biden’s team says his resolve to run is firm. He’s defied CW before but this will send tremors of doubt thru the party–not ‘bed-wetting,’ but legitimate concern.” . . .

Barack Obama Backs Joe Biden as Other Democrats Sour (breitbart.com)

"Former President Barack Obama came out swinging in favor of Joe Biden this weekend despite the fact that Democrats have begun to sour on his 2024 candidacy." . . .

Islamophobia? What about MAGAphobia?

 Eric Utter - American Thinker  

I’m sick of equating and equivocation.  There is a vast moral difference between the actions of Israel and those of Hamas, Hezb’allah, and Iran.  If Democrats and their toadies in the lamestream media cannot discern a difference between Trump-supporters and terrorists bent on carrying out Islamic jihad, they are far too deranged and dangerous to serve in public office or report the news. 

"Every time murderous Islamic thugs commit another terror attack, the Obama-Biden administration, in Pavlovian fashion, promptly cautions us to avoid “Islamophobia.”  This time was not at all different.  In a recent address to the nation about the heinous attacks of Oct. 7 on innocent Israelis, Biden stated:

In recent years, too much hate is given too much oxygen, fueling racism, the rise of anti-Semitism and Islamophobia right here in America.

"I don’t know about you, but I’m seeing a great deal of anti-Semitism lately and very little Islamophobia.

"Not to be outdone, Karine Jean-Pierre stated that “Muslims and those perceived to be Muslim have endured a disproportionate number of hate-fueled attacks.”  Pretty sure it’s the other way around.  Let’s see: according to thereligionofpeace.com, there have been 1,393 Islamic attacks in 48 countries, in which 8,528 people were killed and 8,445 injured...in 2023 alone.  A handful of these deaths were “honor killings” or simple sharia executions, but the vast majority were caused by terror attacks.

"So why have we heard our leaders issue a constant drumbeat of warnings against “Islamophobia” over the past several decades?  Is it because most of us citizens have been hair-trigger eager to besmirch Islam and Muslims?  No, it’s because such a staggering number of Islamic/jihadi attacks have occurred during that time.  Oh, and basically since time immemorial.  Many are so brutal and heinous that they defy description — such as those of 9/11 and this past Oct. 7.  Rapes.  Murders.  Beheadings." . . .

Palestinian Man in US Illegally Arrested in Houston For Plotting Attack on Jewish Community

 

The Gateway Pundit | by David Greyson:  "A Palestinian man in the US illegally was arrested in Houston for a firearms violation. Sohaib Abuayyash, 20, was in the United States on a non-immigrant visa that expired in 2019, which prohibited him from owning a firearm, Click 2 Houston reported.

"Sohaib Abuayyash was allegedly planning to attack Jews in Houston before his arrest. He had studied bomb-making and had affirming statements online about killing Jews.

"Abuayyash had also been taking a detailed look online at radical groups that condone violence which included bomb-making." . . .

"According to the criminal complaint filed upon his arrest, Abuayyash entered the United States on a nonimmigrant visa, which expired in 2019, and has allegedly been in direct contact with others who share a radical mindset. The charges further allege he has been conducting physical training and has trained with weapons to possibly commit an attack.

"If convicted, he faces up to 15 years in federal prison as well as a possible $250,000 maximum fine.

"The FBI is conducting the investigation." . . .

Hunter Biden's ex business partner Tony Bobulinski issues a challenge to the presidential family after they accused him of lying to the FBI: 'Hunter, Jim, Joe and I should all appear together before Congress, publicly and under oath'

  Daily Mail Online

'Hunter Biden and his legal team are once again attacking anyone who speaks out against the Bidens,' the Oversight Committee wrote. 'This time, their target is Tony Bobulinski, a potential witness in our investigation. 'We will not tolerate witness intimidation. The truth will come out soon enough despite the Biden team's threatening tactics." 

"Hunter Biden's former business partner Tony Bobulinski has challenged the Biden family to testify under oath beside him before Congress, after Hunter's lawyer accused Bobulinski of lying.

"Bobulinski, a Navy veteran, worked with Hunter Biden and his uncle Jim - Joe's brother - in 2017 to invest in China.

"Bobulinski in 2020 produced a May 2017 email detailing a proposed equity split for a Chinese investment, with the suggestion of '20' for 'H' and '10 held by H for the big guy?'

"Bobulinski has claimed that 'the big guy' was Joe Biden, who was vice president until January 2017.

"Joe Biden has always said he was not involved in Hunter's business dealings.

"Hunter's lawyer, Abbe Lowell, has written a letter to prosecutors claiming that Bobulinski has lied to the FBI.

"Bobulinski, in response, on Friday challenged the Bidens to provide public sworn testimony." . . .

Why Don’t Democrats Care That Joe Biden Is Hopelessly Corrupt – News With Views   THE SCOURGE OF PARTY BLINDNESS:  “I have consistently made it very clear that I will vote a straight Democratic [Republican] ticket, just like I do every election. From the local Constable to the President, I will be voting for every Democrat [Republican] on the ballot.  I don’t care to which policies they subscribe or how corrupt they might be.  My party, right or wrong, my party.”

"Joe and Hunter Biden should be in jail, but they are not. The corruption and influence peddling evidence is overwhelming and yet they are allowed to walk free.  The damning information is scuttled by social media and the mainstream news and hidden from view.  The questions about the corruption are never asked and the answers are never forthcoming.

"From all appearances the Department of Justice is absent, the FBI won’t investigate and the news media is complicit in the cover up of Biden family corruption."

"John Durham’s investigation into the FBI Trump-Russia coup d’etat won’t be released before the November election.  If Biden is elected president, the Durham probe would most likely conveniently disappear.  The American people will never know the depth of deceit, deception and illegal activity perpetrated by politicians in the Democrat party, or high-level government operatives in the FBI, DOJ and the CIA to take down a sitting U. S. president.  The FIX is in and the American people can do nothing to stop it, short of armed revolution!

"Unfortunately, no matter how corrupt, daft, gaff prone, or dishonorable a candidate might be, no matter how long he or she has served as a politician, the stupid voter will continue to vote that same person into public office, election cycle, after election cycle, such that the same persons perpetrate the same indignities and injustices on the American people.  Somehow that just doesn’t seem very bright." . . .

'Don't Look Away': Israel Releases Video of Hamas Atrocities at Music Festival

. . ."Flying in armed terror squads to a music festival attended by unarmed young women and men from Israel and around the world, who are there promoting peace, and then systematically murdering, raping, kidnapping, and mutilating them in front of an adoring public, who further desecrate those bodies, is not an act of resistance. 

"The level of depravity and hatred it requires for anyone to find solidarity in terrorists hunting and butchering young women and men at a music festival cannot be understated. 

"More than 250 festival attendees are feared dead, with many more missing.

Flying in armed terror squads to a music festival attended by unarmed young women and men from Israel and around the world, who are there promoting peace, and then systematically murdering, raping, kidnapping, and mutilating them in front of an adoring public, who further desecrate those bodies, is not an act of resistance. The level of depravity and hatred it requires for anyone to find solidarity in terrorists hunting and butchering young women and men at a music festival cannot be understated. More than 250 festival attendees are feared dead, with many more missing.

. . . "Witnesses described the utter terror they experienced. An emergency worker named Yaniv said: 

There are at least 200 bodies of Israelis in the area I was in. It was a massacre.

I've never seen anything like it in my life. It was a planned ambush. As people came out of the emergency exits, squads of terrorists were waiting for them there and just started picking them off.

"As RedState's Bonchie reported, some protesters in New York City were supportive of Hamas during rallies Sunday. It's important to remember that this kind of absolute barbarism is what they're cheering for.

"The effects of these horrific attacks will be felt for years, if not forever, and the dynamics of the already-challenged region took a hard turn for the worse. More and more heart-wrenching stories are coming out, and they're difficult to read (or write about). 

"They make one question the very nature of humanity because it's hard to believe that anyone could act with such wanton cruelty and disregard for innocent people. I've tried to put my head into that of a 9/11 terrorist and imagine what could possibly make someone do something like that, and I simply can't do it. The same is true here: I can't imagine a situation in the history of the planet that would make me consider indiscriminately killing hundreds if not thousands of people whom I'd never met and had committed no crime.

"Unfortunately, however, it is clear that terrorists can and do descend into such depths of evil. They have committed unspeakable crimes, though, and for that, they must be stomped out of existence.

 MUST-SEE VIDEO: Why Muslim nations don’t want ‘Palestinians’ - American Thinker

"When Barack Obama’s policies triggered the disastrous Arab Spring, with massive upheaval in the Muslim lands of Africa and the Middle East, Europe opened its doors to refugees from those wars. Europe did this even though its cultural connection to these refugees was minimal to nonexistent. It was, the Europeans felt, the right thing to do. (It’s also proved to have been a remarkably stupid thing to do, as Enoch Powell predicted, but that’s another story.)

"Here in America, we’re told that our border is meaningless because we have a moral obligation to welcome in refugees from around the world—and not even refugees from war. Just refugees from places these migrants don’t like very much." . . .

From Guardian to Coward: The Journey of Chuck Schumer

Yet now, only five years later, Schumer not only is fighting against the House-approved bill of November 2 to give $14 billion in aid to Israel, but he also refuses to even let it be discussed on the Senate floor. What happened in five years to make Chuck Schumer, whose Hebrew name is Yeshaya ben Avraham, totally abandon freedom, Israel, and his Jewish heritage in favor of socialism, authoritarianism, and terrorists?

 From Guardian to Coward: The Journey of Chuck Schumer – PJ Media   "There are a lot of true villains in politics: people who are filled with hate and are true supporters of evil — Ocasio-Cortez, Tlaib, Omar, Pressley, et al. They seek to destroy Western culture and the United States and to prop up evil regimes and terrorist organizations. It’s especially easy to see them right now as they try to justify the evil of Hamas, as they try to destroy Israel, the only democracy in the Middle East, and they strive to tear down our country with riots on college campuses and even the Capitol.

"But none of them disappoint or anger me as much as Chuck Schumer, a man who has a significant Jewish educational background aware of the history of his people and the world. He has throughout his career pointed out that his last name means “guardian” and that he would always be the “guardian of Israel” in Washington.

I write this as a Rabbi who is deeply saddened by the fall of this man. While I have never agreed with much of his politics, he was for many years someone who deserved respect for acting on his beliefs. But he has truly fallen from that status, seduced by seeking personal power over personal values. Nowhere is this more clearly seen than in his abandonment of Israel.

"For most of his career, Schumer did try to embody his name and protect Israel. He campaigned hard to revoke the tax-free status of a Palestinian charity in 1994. He harshly criticized Gaza for electing the terrorist organization of Hamas, calling on Israel to “strangle Gaza economically until they see that’s not the way to go” and repeatedly and publicly supported Israel’s blockade of Gaza." . . .  

Barack REFUSES to pick a side: Obama condemns 'horrific' actions of Hamas but says 'what's happening to Palestinians is unbearable' |

  Daily Mail Online            "Former President Obama has condemned the actions of Hamas against the state of Israel but has also expressed sympathy for innocent civilians in Gaza. Speaking on the Pod Save America podcast about the conflict in the Middle East, the former president suggested the war was a 'moral reckoning for all of us'. 'If you want to solve the problem, then, you have to take in the whole truth', the president said.'And you then have to admit nobody's hands are clean, that all of us are complicit to some degree,' the former president continued." . . .

A Jewish Political Realignment?

Following the terrorist massacre of Israeli civilians and even before the military response, young woke progressives turned stridently against the Jewish State.

 Power Line (powerlineblog.com)   "Gaza’s genocidal war against Israel has torn the Democratic Party apart by revealing the anti-Semitic core of its dominant left wing. Axios headlines: “Biden’s 2024 team roiled by Israel-Hamas war.”

Part of President Biden’s political team is in turmoil over the Israel-Hamas war, as some aides see the White House as abetting an immoral attack on Palestinians — while others believe Biden is showing “moral clarity” in protecting Israel from terrorists.

… The strife within the Democratic National Committee (DNC) — which Biden is leaning on for his re-election campaign — reflects larger generational and political divisions among Democrats.

Those divisions are chiefly between older pro-Israel Democrats and younger progressives who are more sympathetic to the plight of Palestinians.

"And are entirely indifferent to mass murder, gang rape and the beheading of infants, where the victims are Jews.

"At the Daily Mail, Alan Dershowitz writes that the relationship between Jews and the Democratic Party has been profoundly altered:

The Hamas atrocities of October 7th have forever fractured any political alliance between centrist and liberal Jews and woke, anti-Israel progressives.

It’s either them or us.

The coalition is at civil war." . . . 

Because they will not bear the truth of those who hate Jews and their actions. TD
