Hamas Atrocities Against Israeli Women Met With Deafening Silence

 Townhall   "Misogyny and cultural “norms” subjugating women are widespread in much of the Islamic world. These include female genital mutilation, forced marriages, persecuting women for not dressing according to strict Islamic standards, “honor killings,” and much more.  

"It’s no surprise then, but shocking and horrific nonetheless, that one “weapon” in Hamas’ inhuman massacre of over 1200 people in Israel on October 7, brutalizing thousands, and kidnapping more than 240, including young children and elderly women held hostage in Gaza, was the raping of Israeli women in the process.  Underscoring that these are not individual criminal acts but part of something widespread and deliberate, it’s been described as a sexual pogrom. 

"Adding insult to injury, groups and people that should be advocating for women’s rights and under any other circumstance would be calling out such criminal behavior, have turned a blind eye to the forensic evidence, eyewitness accounts, and confessions of Hamas terrorists as if the victims and sexual crimes didn’t matter just because they are Jews. The evidence is clear. Medical examiners have reported that some of the rapes were so violent that the women’s pelvises were crushed.

"A growing chorus has condemned ignoring these crimes or even denying that they happened using the hashtag, "#Metoo_unless_UR_A_Jew." . . .

More about those women whose hostage posters were torn down by leftists and Muslims. I cannot fathom in the least how those people could align with those who commit these crimes. My political attitude kicks in and I call them Democrat voters who choose the leaders of our nation among whom are the "Squad". TD

"The first indications of possible sexual violence came as early as Oct. 7, the day that thousands of Hamas and other fighters streamed into Israeli towns and began live-streaming bloodshed and torture.

"Footage showed several women stripped of their clothing. One video showed a woman, her hands zip-tied behind her back, with blood on the crotch of her pants.

"Later came testimony from witnesses and first responders. One witness described in graphic detail a gang rape at the Nova rave site near Re’im. An Israeli reserve combat paramedic told The Post that he found the bodies of teenage girls with signs of sexual assault.

"Combatants from Gaza overran 22 Israeli communities, killed at least 1,200 and took 240 hostage in the surprise attack. But their greater goal, sexual trauma specialists say, was to introduce terror against women — and children and other unarmed civilians — as a means of spreading fear.". . .

Newsom's Weird Obsession with DeSantis Grows –

  HotAir  

California residents are leaving the state in record numbers. Not all are going to Florida but a lot of them are. Others are going to Texas or Montana or other red states. They are voting with their feet against Newsom and the agenda of the California progressives. It is, in fact, a red state vs blue state debate. Both men are articulate and able to speak about policy below the surface. I don’t like what Newsom says but he is a smooth talker and doesn’t hesitate to chime in. DeSantis is a policy wonk, which I enjoy. It should be a good event.

"It’s on like Donkey Kong. Governor Gavin Newsom (D-CA) and Governor Ron DeSantis (R-FL) are scheduled to debate at the end of the month. It’s being called a “Red vs Blue State Debate.”

"This event came about due to Newsom’s obsession with DeSantis. Newsom’s jealousy of DeSantis has brought about a debate for which many people question its necessity. Why would DeSantis waste time debating a progressive Democrat now? It seems like a distraction. Hannity took advantage of Newsom’s focus on DeSantis and asked if he would consider a debate with Hannity as moderator on Fox. Newsom is one of the few progressives who will come on FNC. He was eager to say yes and did so. Hannity asked the same question of DeSantis and he agreed, too. I assume this debate gets around the RNC rule against unsanctioned debates since Newsom is a Democrat and allegedly not running for president.

"We all know that Newsom is running a shadow campaign for president. Democrats admit it. Biden even attempted to joke about Newsom’s presidential ambitions when he was last in California with him. Newsom is clearly waiting in the wings, ready to jump in if Biden decides to retire. It isn’t going to happen, though, because Joe Biden is too stubborn and his ego is too large for him to abandon the race for a second term in the White House. And, Barack Obama would like a fourth term. All of this serves to increase Newsom’s national profile that he will be able to use in 2028. The same may be said of DeSantis if Trump is the Republican nominee in 2024." . . .

Gavin Newsom will probably never be POTUS—but the people of the US need to know the enormous damage he did to a generation of kids by needlessly closing schools in a politically-driven panic that was exacerbated by his fear of the teachers union & his religious belief in masks.😡 https://t.co/huzXRvjtYk

What The Latest Attacks On Musk Are Really All About –

  Issues & Insights  

When students and faculty celebrated Hamas’ genocidal butchery against Israel, the left said it was all about free speech and understanding the plight of the “Palestinian” people. When a far-left Michigan congresswoman spewed the genocidal slogan “from the river to the sea,” she was given a pass.

 "Just as Democrats were trying to downplay the rampant antisemitism in their ranks, what happens? Elon Musk, who has lately become something of a darling on the right, suddenly becomes the poster boy for antisemitism. This is how the left works.

"This latest twist started when Media Matters — the George Soros-backed media “watchdog” — released a report claiming that ads for major corporations were appearing next to antisemitic and white supremacist content.

"This is a two-fer for the left. It both attacks Musk — whom the left now hates because he stopped Twitter’s side hustle as the federal government censor — and it takes the spotlight off the left’s virulent antisemitism on display after the Hamas attacks.

"As soon as Musk took over Twitter and promised to live up to the company’s “free speech wing of the free speech party” mantra, the left went into fits of hysterics.

"Media Matters puts it, “Musk has opened the floodgates to hateful content.” Really? Because Twitter was pure as the driven snow before Musk?

"We seem to recall that “blue check” leftists had free reign to say whatever they wanted about conservatives on Twitter, up to and including calls for their assassination. After Donald Trump took office, to cite just one example, “assassinate Trump” was showing up all over Twitter. When Twitter banned Trump before Musk bought the company, it let Ayatollah Ali Khamenei continue to incite hate and violence on its platform. Etc., etc." . . .

The Left's War on Elon Musk Explained – HotAir   "Anyone who follows the comings and goings of the social media world and the way it intersects with American politics has probably noticed the evolution of attitudes toward Elon Musk, particularly on the left. He used to be vaunted by people across the political spectrum. The boy genius billionaire with a generous heart was going to put everyone in electric cars and save humanity by taking us to other planets. But now American liberals have soured on Musk considerably. He regularly faces criticism of a political nature, despite having no specific ties to political parties or candidates." . . .

As we are all too aware, the Democrats and their insidious minions in the media have been working hard to get a head start on pre-gaming next year’s presidential election. They’d prefer that there be no election at all, which is rich given that they’re the ones who say we’re destroying democracy.

Yes, there was violence inside the Capitol on J6, but the police committed it

Andrea Widburg - American Thinker  "The newly released J6 footage is a revelation because it shows that the “insurrection” was not by, of, and for the people, it was by, of, and for the government. When it comes to events inside the Capitol, there’s growing evidence that the violence came not from the people peacefully and reverentially wandering around but from law enforcement. Certainly, the most recent footage appears to bear that out.

"There are two narratives about January 6. The dominant one is the Democrat narrative. Practically within minutes of events on January 6, every Democrat politician and media outlet was claiming an “insurrection.” Endlessly repeated footage and still photos showed a huge crowd outside the Capitol, black-clad masked figures breaking into the Capitol, Trump supporters streaming into the Capitol, and the “QAnon Shaman” (escorted by a guard) surveying the Senate chamber. Police officers had been beaten to death. America was over.

• Trump requested extra security because a large crowd was expected, and both the military and Nancy Pelosi refused.
• Police escorted a peaceful QAnon Shaman throughout the Capitol.
• People whom the FBI and other Democrats refused to arrest were urging Trump supporters into the Capitol, and masked men were removing signage and fencing that would have informed ordinary Americans that they were trespassing.
• Capitol police opened magnetically closed, reinforced doors to welcome protestors inside.
• Outside, the crowd was peaceful until, without warning, the police started firing flashbangs.
• The police apparently beat one woman to death outside the Capitol and, inside the Capitol, shot another one to death. No police died.   . . .

Fmr. Obama senior official under fire for vile rant at halal food cart vendor, says killing 4,000 Palestinian kids wasn’t enough

Seldowitz then repeatedly asks, “Did you rape your daughter like Muhammad did?” When the man again says he doesn’t speak English, Seldowitz calls him “ignorant.” “Muhammad, your prophet... He was a rapist,” he says 

"In October, Seldowitz was interviewed about the Israel-Hamas war in an hour-long podcast by Amy Peikoff. Peikoff is former chief policy officer of Parler, a “free speech” social media network favored by right-wing users for its lack of content moderation.  

"He said Hamas was to blame for any Palestinian civilian deaths and said reports about the poor conditions in Gaza are exaggerated. 

"“The Israelis will and have in the past done almost everything that can reasonably be expected to keep civilian casualties down as low as possible,” he said, describing the Israeli Defense Forces as a “moral army.”

 “Responsibility for the civilian casualties can squarely be laid at the doorstep of Hamas.”    

"Seldowitz also told Peikoff it’s “very hard” for Americans to relate to Palestinians “because their culture, their history, their religion and so on is so different than most of us.” 

"Seldowitz is also a senior consultant in humanitarian diplomacy for GDC". . .

"Going forward, it seems very unlikely he’s ever to serve in a Democrat administration again."

HAMAS BREAKS CEASEFIRE 15 minutes after it started

 Barenakedislam (barenakedislam.com)  

When her mouth opens her face disappears

The Hamas savages broke their ceasefire agreement with Israel 15 minutes after it started today. Sirens went off in southern Israel just minutes after the ceasefire.

"Newsweek The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) has reported that unspecified Palestinian militants in the Gaza Strip violated a nascent ceasefire after only 15 minutes, telling Newsweek it intercepted a rocket fired towards southern Israel.

"Rocket sirens sounded in the evacuated southern Israeli towns of Kissufim and Ein HaShlosha early on Friday morning, shortly after a four-day ceasefire came into effect that will allow a prisoner exchange and the delivery of humanitarian aid into the besieged and devastated Gaza Strip.

“ 'There was a rocket and it was intercepted,” the IDF Spokesperson’s Unit told Newsweek of the reports, noting it was fired at 7:15 a.m. local time; 15 minutes after the ceasefire—which the IDF is calling an “operational pause”—came into effect."

"According to reports the hostage release was scheduled for 4 PM Israel time which is 9 AM ET. That has also passed without the arrival of Jewish children taken hostage on October 7 by the Hamas barbarians."

"It’s time to impose a moratorium on the allocation of public funds to non-profit organizations in the United States that support Hamas, the designated terror organization responsible for the Oct. 7 massacre that resulted in the murder of more than 1,400 Israelis. Not only is the organization an inveterate enemy of Jews, Israel, and the United States, but Hamas also currently holds at least nine American citizens hostage in the Gaza Strip."...

We are all Hostages

 Phyllis Chesler Organization

Psychologically speaking, the media, college professors, the United Nations and the surging swarms in the streets have projected the atrocities committed by Islamic terrorists onto Jews and the Jewish state.

"The global jihad has abused and slaughtered Jews and non-Jews across the West.

"Every Jew, both inside and outside of Israel, has been held hostage for 40 days. In the Holy Land, Israelis—Jews, Christians, Muslims and Druze—have been bombed, kidnapped, tortured, murdered, forced into bomb shelters and cast into internal exile.

"Because Israel has dared to fight back, Jews around the world are being “punished” for Israel’s alleged “crimes.” Jews everywhere are being verbally harassed, demonized, threatened, physically attacked and sometimes murdered. Visibly Jewish students no longer feel safe in their classrooms, at gatherings or on the street in Europe, the United States, Canada and beyond.

"The Jewish state was created to protect Jews from their 2,000-year-old vulnerability to pogroms and genocide while in exile. The existence of that very state is now being used as the excuse for a monstrous “intifada” against all Jews in the West. It is driven by the lethal propaganda against Israel that has been disseminated for at least 60 years. It may take that long to drain this swamp of lies.

"But, as ever, this is far bigger than the Jews.

Right now, more than one billion Westerners are being surrounded on their streets and in the media by the war cries of “Allahu Akbar.” Everyone, everywhere has been held psychologically and often physically hostage by the “globalized jihad.”

"Traffic has been stalled. Visible Jews have been physically attacked. Anti-Israel and pro-Palestinian rallies, marchers and random ranting individuals have frightened or attacked passengers on buses and trains with their aggressive propaganda.

"When will the West wake up to the fact that we and our way of life are under siege?

"From both a jihadist and Western leftist point of view, killing the Jews will redeem the West’s sins of racism, imperialism, colonialism and slavery. Indoctrinated Westerners refuse to acknowledge that the West is not the only or even the major sinner in world history.

"Muslim countries have a very long history of gender and religious apartheid, anti-black racism and black slavery, imperialism, colonialism, conversion via the sword and more. I doubt that destroying the only democracy in the Middle East—Israel—will liberate Muslim women from being forcibly veiled or honor-killed." . . .

Israel’s ‘Trophy’ Tank Protection System Takes The Prize

  Issues & Insights

 Twenty years later it had a system ready to deploy. Trophy achieved international prominence during the 2011 combat versus Hamas. Currently Hamas is using a new anti-tank guided missile launcher that launches two missiles a short time apart in hopes of overwhelming Trophy. The results remain to be seen.

"Protection from attacking threats is a constant game of measure and countermeasure that has been going on for millennia. Its technological sophistication ratcheted up during World War I, when tanks were first deployed as a means of breaking the stalemate of trench warfare and the futility of massed infantry attacks. Those early tanks had to protect mainly against machine gun bullets and artillery-shell fragments, so less than a half-inch of steel armor protection was sufficient.

"But as soon as they were deployed, opposing forces responded by firing bigger guns and using artillery as a direct-fire weapon. Tanks then evolved, in turn, to having as much as three inches of steel armor in the frontal sector. This protected the occupants from all but the very largest guns. But not from shaped charges.

"Shaped charges are wonders of science. They are based on the “hollow charge principle,” which in America was discovered accidentally by Dr. Charles Munroe at the Newport Naval Torpedo Station when a TNT block with the manufacturer’s name indented in the charge accidently went off on top of a sheet of steel. The indented letters acted as hollow areas in the TNT and produced deep indentations in the steel resulting in a mirror image of the letters in the steel plate. 

"That led to the design of a shaped charge as shown here with three explosive charges sitting on steel billets; the first charge having a flat bottom, the second having a conical indentation, and the third having an indentation with a thin metal liner. Upon detonation, the explosive gases and molten metal form a high-velocity jet capable of punching through many inches of steel armor. Optimization of this effect soon led to small weapons such as the bazooka and the rocket propelled grenade (RPG) that allowed even dismounted infantry troops to wield high-penetration tank-killing weapons. And larger weapons, such as anti-tank guided missiles (ATGMs), fired from vehicles or ground mounts, were completely unstoppable." . . .

Why be a Republican?

  Don Surber (substack.com)

But then again, I do not understand the Republican Party’s sneering at hardhats, factory workers and other hourly wage earners.

Mitt Romney the Weathervane

"David Harsanyi wrote a column, “The Populist Right Is Leading The GOP Into Irrelevancy.”

By populist right, he means Trump supporters who in his eyes are the whole basket of deplorables. 

"He wrote, “Since the GOP’s populist turn in 2016, the party has steadily lost ground in the suburbs and among independents. They have not had a single positive election cycle since. And the electoral failures of 2023 are just another instance of the mythological populist realignment undermining their prospects.”

"His argument is that everything should have gone the Republican way but they did not. He does not blame a party leadership that hates Trump supporters and did everything it could to sabotage Trump candidates. Instead he blames Republican voters who want jobs (or as they mockingly say on South Park, jerbs because those working-class losers cannot even pronounce the word, right?).

"Harsanyi wrote, “Other than some platitudes about Bidenomics, what was the GOP’s economic message? They don’t have one. The right’s misplaced obsession with ‘working class’ voters has led to a watered-down, leftist approach to the economy that creates a muddled, incoherent rhetorical mess on an issue Republicans should be dominating.

“ 'In most places, the working class is shrinking, and the middle class keeps growing. People are moving out of the Rust Belt to Nevada and Florida, and yet a big chunk of the GOP is reluctant to press on tax cuts and deregulation for fear of sounding too much like Reagan — the worst sin one can apparently commit these days.”

"I don’t know why he believes Republicans hate Reagan, but then I don’t talk to the Republicans he talks to. He still has a problem with Trump’s surprising defeat of Hillary, blaming Republican woes today on the only Republican victory in the last four presidential elections.". . .

The evil that is Hamas and those who enable them around the world

 Biden Officially Attempts to Remove God from Thanksgiving with 2023 Proclamation | The Gateway Pundit | by Rachel M. Emmanuel, The Western Journal   . . ."As a nation founded on Judeo-Christian values, this disturbing omission shows how far we have strayed from the original spirit behind America’s national day of Thanksgiving.

"The pilgrims who celebrated the first Thanksgiving in 1621 were devout Christians fleeing religious persecution. Their celebration followed a brutal first year in the New World, where nearly half their population perished. Despite unimaginable hardship, their faith remained unshaken. They credited God for sustaining them and bringing them their first successful harvest.

"This theme carried through the centuries, with presidents honoring God in their Thanksgiving proclamations. George Washington implored all Americans to acknowledge God’s “providence,” and to “unite in most humbly offering our prayers and supplications to the great Lord and Ruler of Nations.' ” . . .

First Hostages Released by Hamas Cross Out of Gaza –

No it doesn’t, at least not according to CNN’s “US official” source. It looks more like Biden’s tireless determination to keep hostaging a vital strategy for Hamas. It adds to the perception that Biden is applying pressure tactics on Israel to withdraw from Gaza and end the war while leaving Hamas enough capability to attack again.
