The evidence is overwhelming that the sadistic tactics Hamas terrorists used against the Israeli women and girls they brutalized on October 7th included rape, torture, and burning them alive.

The comments to this article at RedState smack of an organized campaign. How do these Hamas writers not show regret for the thousands of Hamas rockets launched upon Israel with no regard for where they land? Where is their defense of the invaders who burned the homes of families and killed the occupants? Who stood along roadways to kill drivers passing by? The Tunnel Dweller

 AOC, Cori Bush Step in It Big Time After Accusing AIPAC of 'Exploiting' Hamas Rape Victims – RedState    "We know this not just because Hamas documented their barbaric savagery, but also because some of the terrorists later admitted under questioning that their intent for the women and children they captured was to “dirty them, to rape them.”

"On Wednesday, the Association of Rape Crisis Centers in Israel submitted a deeply disturbing report to the United Nations detailing their findings on the atrocities committed against women and girls by Hamas terrorists, not just on the day of the attack but afterward during captivity.

"The full report is too graphic to quote here, but this was the abstract summary:"

A party-goer describes what it was like when Gazans attacked the festival.

“Hamas’s attack on October 7 included brutal sexual assaults, carried out systematically and deliberately towards Israeli civilians” (legalinsurrection.com)  . . ."Hamas’s attack included violent acts of rape, accompanied by threats with weapons, and in some cases targeted towards injured women. Many of the rapes were carried out as a group, with the participation of violent terrorists. Often, the rape was perpetrated in front of an audience – partners, family, or friends – in a manner intended to increase the pain and humiliation of all present. Hamas terrorists hunted young women and men who fled the Nova festival, and according to testimonies, dragged them by their hair amid screams. The actions targeted women, girls, and men. In most cases, the victims were killed after or even during the rape." . . .

At Tate Modern’s Feminist Art Event, Activists Decry Hamas’ Sexual Violence Against Female Israeli Hostages. 

. . ."The demonstration was intended to raise awareness for Israeli female hostages and to criticize the lack of effort from feminist, cultural, and women’s organizations.

“Most of these organizations have ignored or failed to properly address the violence and sexual crimes committed against Israeli women and girls during the October 7 massacre, while the Israeli hostages are still facing, more than 100 days after, the same violence,” the organizers added.

"This is one such effort among others, including a much larger grassroots #BringThemHomeNow campaign focused on bring those who have been taken home and providing support for their families.

"Released hostages have reported witnessing sexual violence perpetrated by Hamas, while members of  ZAKA, a ultra-orthodox Jewish human remains recovery organization, reported recovering evidence of sexual violence and rape. A two-month New York Times investigation argued that attacks against women were part of a “broad pattern of gender-based violence” on October 7." . . . 

Stanford students to stage sit-in at Starbucks to protest Israel: 'Pledge to BDS'

 Campus Reform

"Stanford Sit-in to Stop Genocide has demanded that the university call for an “immediate ceasefire in Gaza,” provide resources for Palestinian students on campus, identify how the university’s research and teaching environments are “biased against Palestinians,” commit to the boycott, divest, and sanction movement, and create 5 student seats on the Special Committee on Investment Responsibility."

"A Stanford University pro-Palestine group says it will stage a sit-in at a Starbucks on campus to protest Israel and pledge their commitment to the Boycott, Sanction, and Divest movement.

"Sit in to Stop Genocide at Stanford University said in an Instagram post that the sit-in would take place Thursday through Saturday between 9:00 a.m. through 7:30 p.m. “to reclaim the community space Stanford wants to take from us while pledging NOT to buy from Starbucks.”

" 'While Stanford took down the sit-in we invite you to reclaiming space as a community. Join us between Thursday and Saturday from 9:00 am to 7:30pm as we will be sitting at Starbucks in our pledge to BDS,” the group wrote. “BDS is a long-term commitment to fostering an economic system where our choices do not contribute to other people’s suffering.”

” 'Bring your keffiyeh/flag/sign, your homework and friends. We have strength in our collectivity!” it added.

"Starbucks has no locations in Israel and wrote in a December 2023 statement it has “no political agenda.”

”Our position remains unchanged. Starbucks stands for humanity. We condemn violence, the loss of innocent life and all hate and weaponized speech,” the coffee chain wrote." . . .

Stanford is the latest elite university to be slammed for its lack of 'moral resolve' in its response to Hamas' attack on Israel | Fortune  . . .“Our letter isn’t just a letter saying we think you did certain things wrong and could’ve done it better,” Gavrieli said in an interview. “It’s a very firm letter saying we don’t feel like we can be engaged with Stanford going forward because it doesn’t feel like home to us anymore.” 

"Beyond cutting off donations, Gavrieli said it also means no longer contributing to research, interviewing students or generally supporting the school." . . .

The Persecution of Donald Trump Means Turning Ordinary Activities Into Crimes

 Vince Coyner - American Thinker

Should Trump lose because of this lawfare onslaught, it will never stop. It won’t just be billionaire ex-presidents who’ll be in the crosshairs. It will also be small businesses who don’t support local candidates, big businesses who threaten the elites, and, eventually, it just might be you and me for having written something critical of some thin-skinned politician somewhere or having overestimated the value of our house… None of that is good for a free republic.

"Like millions of Americans before me, I’ve done exactly what Donald Trump did; namely, sought a loan based upon my best estimate of what my property was worth—and I didn’t look to what the tax assessor said in reaching that value. However, as part of the Democrats’ lawfare, Letitia James twisted a perfectly ordinary act into something evil, and a partisan judge put his imprimatur on her efforts. If it’s allowed to stand, the results will be devastating, not just for the political class but also for normal Americans.

"In December 2020, I had to put my home on the market and move 1,000 miles away. Two months before, I’d considered refinancing my mortgage, and the bank gave me a valuation of $285,000. I thought it probably should have been higher, but didn’t really feel like taking the time to investigate because I wasn’t really that worried about it." . . .

In Paris, Israel and mediators agree on outline for hostage deal, pending Hamas okay

How can Hamas release those they have raped and mutilated?

  The Times of Israel   

"An Israeli delegation of top security officials returned from talks in Paris on Saturday as reports spread of growing hope in Jerusalem that a new hostage release deal with Hamas could be within reach.

"Israel’s war cabinet was conferring by telephone on Saturday evening to discuss the emerging “outline of an agreement,” described by an Israeli official cited widely in media as a “basis on which to build a plan and the principles for negotiations.”

“There’s significant progress and a solid basis for discussions,” the official said.

" 'At the same time, an Israeli official told The Times of Israel that while there was optimism in Israeli media about the likelihood of a deal, the delegation itself was more cautious.

"Talks in Paris were held between Israel, American, Egyptian and Qatari representatives who have been working for weeks to secure a deal to free hostages and pause the fighting. It remained to be seen how Hamas would respond to the latest proposal." . . .

A Clear Blue Sky Over Israel; What one survivor of Hamas’s October 7 atrocities saw at the Nova music festival

 City Journal (city-journal.org)

"The hundreds of millions of dollars in aid that the world gave Gaza was used to build tunnels and rockets, not feed, house, and clothe civilians. “We can live side by side with Arabs,” she said. “Israeli Arabs live among us. But we can’t make peace with people who want to wipe out the Jewish people. We must do whatever is needed to ensure that Hamas never again poses a threat, never again.' ”

"The contrasts are what haunt Millet Ben Haim when she thinks about Hamas’s October 7 attack. As she lay on the ground, hidden in brush, with the sound of bullets and rockets growing ever closer, she looked up at the sky. It was clear blue—and then she saw a butterfly. “It was so beautiful,” she said. “I thought I was going to die, but that the world would go on. There was beauty around me, along with the butchery.”

"She was panicked but occasionally calm. She wanted to live but prayed that a rocket would hit her. “I had been in the army,” she said. “So I knew what would happen to us if we were caught—rape, torture, a slow death.”

"A small, slender beauty with long, ash-blonde hair and large, grey eyes, Ben Haim, now 28, spoke in a virtual monotone as she recalled how she and four friends survived the Hamas attack at the Nova music festival in southern Israel, in which 364 mostly young Israelis died. Hundreds more were wounded, and 40 were taken hostage.

"Ben Haim and I were speaking at the Palm Beach Synagogue—a sanctuary of beauty and peace a galaxy away from the horror of that terrible night in the Negev desert near Gaza. Through determination and luck—mostly crazy luck, she called it—she made it through the frenzied slaughter. But she doesn’t feel lucky, she says. In fact, she doesn’t feel much of anything now. She doesn’t sleep much and doesn’t know whether she will ever return to her studies in Israel to become a therapist. “I try not to look in the mirror because I don’t recognize the woman I see. I don’t know who I am now. I mourn my old self.”

"Partly as a form of therapy, and partly as a “voice for those who can no longer speak,” she has been touring Europe and the United States for the past two months, recounting at synagogues, Hillel Houses, and college campuses, to reporters and to anyone else who will listen, her chilling story of escape and survival. “I know that I’m often speaking mostly to the converted,” she says, “but I want as many people as possible to understand what happened that day.” . . .

Coddled To Death: Mental Illness, Illegal Aliens and the Democratic Party

 Derek Hunter (townhall.com)

"Democrats know the truth, but the truth, as is so often the case, doesn’t help them. So it has to be ignored or lied about. You don’t threaten people into silence if you aren’t afraid of what they’ll say." 

Joe, Obama wants his halo back.

"If I could impart one bit of wisdom to you today, I hope that people who tell you they are anything – good, smart, honest, not selling you something, conservative, etc. – are the opposite. Truly smart people don’t have to tell anyone they’re smart, people just know. The same goes for funny people. The more someone insists they are something, the less likely they are to be that thing. 

"Do you know how I know Democrats are the party of compassion and caring? By now they insist they are all the time. It’s the same way I know they’re uncaring opportunists who’d dance on your grave if it suited their needs. 

"Nothing about how Democrats act shows any compassion for anyone; they operate on an “agenda über alles” basis. If death is useful to them, they’ll throw themselves on the metaphorical casket and scream like a lonely widow. 

"They don’t mean it, or else they would’ve shown at least some semblance of concern for the person while they were alive. What did any Democrat do for George Floyd while he was alive? The guy was a degenerate junkie criminal for years before he overdosed on fentanyl in police custody. Where was the love, or even the help? He lived his whole life in a Democrat corral, you’d think they would have helped. You’d be wrong. 

"But when he died, well, they all spoke about him like he’d saved their lives in Vietnam after they’d been best friends in high school. Floyd had 3 memorial services at a time when governments were forbidding everyone else from having any." . . . 

Eisenhower could see this all coming

 Facebook    When I was a kid, I couldn't understand why Eisenhower was so popular. Maybe this will explain why. - Quora

"It is a matter of history that when the Supreme Commander of the Allied Forces, General Dwight Eisenhower, found the victims of the death camps he ordered all possible photographs to be taken, and for the German people from surrounding villages to be ushered through the camps and even made to bury the dead.

He did this because he said in words to this effect:

'Get it all on record now - get the films - get the witnesses - because somewhere down the road of history some bastard will get up and say that this never happened'

This week, the UK debated whether to remove The Holocaust from its school curriculum because it 'offends' the Muslim population which claims it never occurred. It is not removed as yet... However, this is a frightening portent of the fear that is gripping the world and how easily each country is giving in to it.

It is now more than [80] years after the Second World War in Europe ended.

This e-mail is being sent as a memorial chain, in memory of the, six million Jews, 20 million Russians, 10 million Christians, and 1,900 Catholic priests Who were murdered, raped, burned, starved, beaten, experimented on, and humiliated' while many in the world looked the other way!

Now, more than ever, with Iran, among others, claiming the Holocaust to be 'a myth,' it is imperative to make sure the world never forgets."

And today: Why is not there more outrage over the sexual sadism by Hamas in Gaza where they systematically abused Jewish Israeli women including forcing families to watch their acts? Quora

"Because all the bleeding hearts of the world who support the terrorist organisation Hamas, are too blind to the monster that they are supporting that they gloss over these horrors … they’re just a mob of f--kwitted, bleeding heart, woke, little snowflakes who don’t have a clue as to what is really happening in the world and just who they are supporting … the new Nazis!"

We’ve Reached The Tipping With Trump

  Issues & Insights (issuesinsights.com)

Since then, the left has added lawfare to its arsenal, which has now reached peak absurdity for the simple reason that Trump refuses to give in. But make no mistake, scalping Trump will only whet the left’s appetite for more scalps. 

 "Was the $355 million fine against Donald Trump, for a “crime” that even the judge issuing the ruling admitted hurt no one, a bridge too far?

"New York Gov. Kathy Hochul seems to think so, which is why she rushed out to say that other people doing business in New York have nothing to fear: “Law-abiding and rule-following New Yorkers who are businesspeople have nothing to worry about because they’re very different than Donald Trump and his behavior.”

"What she should have said is: “if they are different from Donald Trump and his political views.”

"Because nothing about this case, or the multitude of other unprecedented legal attacks against the former president — the attempts to kick him off ballots, the two bogus impeachments, the Russia hoax, the endless stream of media mis-reporting — has anything even remotely to do with “upholding the law” or “protecting Democracy.”

"These attacks are all a message to anyone who would dare to run as a conservative. Do so, and we will stop at nothing to destroy you.

"We should make it clear at this point that we’ve never been huge fans of Donald Trump. During the 2016 primaries, we weren’t sure he was even conservative. And while he went on to deliver several tremendous victories for conservatives (which we detailed in this space), his term in office wasn’t without its flaws. He failed to get the border wall built, for example. He made some serious mistakes in his appointments. He botched the handling of COVID-19.

"Plus, as a general rule, we’d rather all these old timers — Trump, Biden, Hillary, Bernie, McConnell, etc. — would step aside and let the next generation of leaders get time in the sun. As the few who bothered to watch the Republican presidential debates saw, there is a lot of young talent in the GOP (talent that is notably lacking among Democrats, but that’s another story).

"Having said all that, we’ve now reached a point where even if you hate Trump’s behavior, despise his temperament, think he isn’t a pure-enough conservative, or would prefer someone else less toxic carry the conservative banner, the choice is clear — either support Trump or condone the anti-democratic, extra-legal, election-integrity-destroying tactics of the left, which will forever poison the American political system, and will mean the end of conservatism in the U.S. for the foreseeable future." . . .

CPAC: Jim Jordan says whistleblower from Fani Willis' office talking to his committee

Let's hope this is somebody with integrity and not merely sour grapes. TD

AF Branco

 Just The News  "House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan said Friday that his panel has been in touch with a whistleblower who was fired from Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis's office. 

"There's a whistleblower in her office who we have talked to ... ," Jordan said at the annual CPAC event outside of Washington, D.C., in suburban Maryland. 

"He also said Willis fired this former staffer for bringing forth concerns that the Georgia prosecutor was misusing federal funds. 

" 'She's now talking with our office and we'll see where that goes," Jordan said. "And that's why we subpoenaed for records and documents related to this."

"Willis last year indicted 2024 GOP presidential candidate and former President Donald Trump and 18 co-defendants over their efforts to challenge the 2020 election results in Georgia.

"Her hiring of a special prosecutor with whom she has had a romantic relationship, and their apparent co-mingling of money, as raised ethics concerns – so much so that a judge is now deciding on a legal effort to have Willis removed from the Trump case.  

"Judge Scott McAfee, who is presiding over the hearing, on Monday suggested Willis could be removed, saying the allegations against her "could result in a disqualification.' " . . .

California Gov. Gavin Newsom praises Nikki Haley for helping Democrats make the case against Trump: ‘One of our better surrogates’

Haley’s campaign has also been bankrolled by more than 5,200 donors who contributed to President Biden’s 2020 White House bid, including more than 1,500 who gave over $500,000 just last month, according to Politico. 

NY Post   "Republican presidential candidate Nikki Haley has become one of the “better surrogates” for Democrats in 2024, California Gov. Gavin Newsom said Friday. 

"Haley, who is Donald Trump’s last remaining GOP primary rival, has attacked the former president throughout the race, arguing that the 77-year-old is too old to serve another term White House and warning that his “chaos” will hurt Republican chances at the ballot boxes in November. 

" 'I think she’s one of our better surrogates, so I hope she stays in [the GOP primary race],” Newsom, 56, told CNN host Jake Tapper, arguing that her criticisms of the former president are “spot on.”

" 'I hope she does well tomorrow — at least, well enough,” the Golden State governor added, referring to Saturday’s South Carolina GOP primary, where Haley – the state’s former governor – trails Trump by more than 23 points, according to a RealClearPolitics average of polls. 

“ 'I’m enjoying this primary. And I hope it continues, so I wish her luck,” Newsom added. " . . .
