Poll: 71% of Palestinians Support October 7 Massacre, Majority Wants Hamas Returned to Power in Gaza

  Vijeta Uniyal (legalinsurrection.com)

"More than five months after Hamas-led savage marauders slaughtered more than 1200 Israeli men, women and children, support for the October 7 massacre is at an all-time high among Palestinians in the West Bank and Gaza.

“ 'Despite the ensuing war, the humanitarian crisis and the atrocities committed against Israelis, the vast majority of Palestinians in the West Bank (71 percent) and the Gaza Strip (71 percent) still viewed the October 7 “offensive”,” the Israeli TV channel i24NEWS reported Thursday citing a poll released by the Palestinian Center for Policy and Survey Research (PSR).? . . .

. . . "With the Biden White House arm-twisting Israel into abandoning the planned offensive against the Hamas top leadership hiding in Rafah, the majority of Palestinian — both in Gaza and the West Bank — were hoping for a Hamas ‘victory.’

"The Israeli TV channel noted that the latest poll figures “indicated an increased 56 percent responded that Hamas would win the war and even more (59 percent) preferred that it would continue controlling Gaza. Although there was a considerable split between respondents in the West Bank (64 percent) and in the Strip (52 percent).”

"If Hamas menages to secure a long-term ceasefire without losing its leadership and releasing Israeli hostages, the Palestinians will likely see this as win for the terrorist group.

"The Times of Israel reported key findings of the poll: A poll released Wednesday found declining levels of support for Hamas in both the Gaza Strip and the West Bank since December, while a growing number of Gazans view the terror group’s October 7 onslaught favorably.

The poll by the Palestinian Center for Policy and Survey Research, which showed a wide array of sometimes contradictory stances, also found a dramatic rise in support for a two-state solution among Gazans, along with a dip among Palestinians in both the West Bank and the Strip in those who think independence should be achieved through armed struggle." . . .                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                             Biden Admin Turns Up Pressure On Israel Not To Capture Hamas Rafah Stronghold, Arms Supplies Reportedly At Risk (legalinsurrection.com)  . . ." The Israeli military urgently needs more ammunition as the Gaza ground offensive enters its fifth month. The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) is “running out of 155 mm artillery shells and 120 mm tank shells, as well as sensitive guidance equipment,” the news website reported, citing Israeli sources.

"With Israeli troops engaged in pitched battles against well-armed and fortified terrorist forces across Gaza, the military “noted a recent reduction of American arms supplies,” the article added." . . .

Planet Fitness loses $400 million in value after banning woman who exposed the company’s anti-female stance

 Olivia Murray - American Thinker   "When Patricia Silva spotted a man shaving in front of a female child in the locker room at a Planet Fitness in Fairbanks, Alaska, she approached the individual and suggested he use the men’s locker room. Of course a disagreement ensued, at which point Silva got her phone out to expose the creep (without the nudity of course); shortly after the confrontation, Silva found herself banned from the gym, with managers filing a police report against her.

"When Silva’s story went viral, the company doubled-down on backing the pervert, and in the wake of the decision, Planet Fitness has lost around $400 million in stock value. Here’s the story, from a report published at the Daily Mail yesterday:

Planet Fitness’ valuation has plummeted $400 million in five days after they banned a member who shared a photo of a ‘trans woman’ using a female locker room.

The company’s value dropped from $5.3 billion on March 14 to $4.9 billion on March 19, and its shares are down by 13.59 percent compared to a month ago.

The decline follows Planet Fitness’ refusal to walk back its decision to ban a member who exposed a ‘trans woman’ shaving in a female locker room earlier this month.

"According to an article at The Advocate:

A spokesperson for the gym recently defended the decision to the Daily Mail, maintaining that not only did Silva violate Planet Fitness’s policy on mobile devices in locker rooms, but that ‘discomfort is not a reason to deny access.’ . . .

   "Popular gym franchise Planet Fitness has announced plans to add a "Bigot Alarm" at all locations nationwide to alert members whenever there is a horrible transphobic woman who doesn't want men watching her change in the women's locker room.

"The addition, which will function similarly to the existing "Lunk Alarm," will notify the entire gym whenever someone comes across a woman who is uncomfortable with the idea of having men walking around naked and shaving their body hair in the locker room reserved for women.

" 'Finally, a way to alert the entire gym that there's a hateful bigot present!" said a Planet Fitness spokesman. "Gone are the days when men would have to endure horrified looks and frightened screams from women when they entered the ladies' locker room. Now, just sound the ‘Bigot Alarm' and let everyone else know that there's a woman who has the audacity to express disapproval of men walking around naked in the ladies' room."

Trump NY Fraud Case Is 'Alice in Wonderland Justice'

 Kevin O’Leary SHREDS Letitia James During Heated Shouting Match - Analyzing America    . . ."O’Leary said the case was no longer about Trump but the reputation of New York and the US legal system.

" 'I don’t think this case is about Trump anymore. I think this case is about New York. It’s about the American brand. It’s about what we promised the world in terms of fairness and justice and investing capital in a country that’s built the largest economy on earth,” O’Leary said.

“ 'Forget about Trump. Nothing to do with Trump. You think this is good for business in New York? You think this is good for business in America?” he said.

“ 'To take a law that we use to protect people against buying refrigerators at an overpriced value decades ago and apply it against an individual and then talk about seizing assets like in Cuba. This is a very, very, very bad look for New York and everybody around the world is watching this,” he said." . . .

Dershowitz to Newsmax: Trump NY Fraud Case Is 'Alice in Wonderland Justice'   "Alan Dershowitz, a professor emeritus at Harvard Law School, voiced concerns over Donald Trump's $464 million civil fraud judgment bond, telling Newsmax on Tuesday that it could prevent Trump from appealing and lead to New York Attorney General Letitia James' seizure of his assets.

"That was the purpose to try to get bail so high that he would have to throw in the towel so that James would be able to seize all of his property and become, in addition to being an unconstitutional attorney general who uses her campaigns to try to target people to get Trump, she's now going to become a second-rate landlord trying to control 40 Wall Street and the Trump Towers," Dershowitz said on "Eric Bolling The Balance."

"Trump still retains the right to appeal, but Dershowitz expressed concerns that the high bond could effectively strip him of that option.

" 'It will be Alice in Wonderland's justice – punishment first, and the trial comes last of all," Dershowitz remarked." . . .

The Curious Fraud Case Against Trump Just Got ‘Curiouser’ – JONATHAN TURLEY   . . .“ 'Curiouser and curiouser.” Those words from Alice in Wonderland seem the only apt description of the case unfolding in the New York courtroom of Justice Arthur F. Engoron over the alleged fraudulent practices of former president Donald Trump, his family and his business.

"The charges brought by New York State Attorney General Letitia James were curious from the start. James had run for office on the pledge that she would hunt down Trump, a promise that apparently thrilled many New Yorkers. However, she brought a civil case based on Trump over- and under-estimating the values of his properties.

"As some of us have previously stated, there do appear to have been assets that were inflated or deflated in value. That may be a common practice in New York real estate, but it is not a good practice. Indeed, I believe a penalty is warranted for such practices, but those should be uniformly imposed and would be a fraction of the fortune sought by James in this case.

"The evidence shows that banks made money on these loans, which were paid off either early or on time. In fact, none of the banks complained about the Trump organization’s estimations, which were accompanied by a warning that the banks should not rely on those estimates.

"Moreover, James is seeking to kill a corporation once viewed as iconic in New York, not just by denying the certificates for the Trumps to do business in the city but by imposing $250 million in penalties for money that no one actually lost." . . .

UPDATE: Mike Johnson Now Says He Will 'Certainly' Invite Netanyahu to Address Joint Session of Congress

 Mike Miller – RedState

"Yes, Israel has no stronger ally than the United States, but let's qualify that statement a bit. Israel has no stronger ally in the U.S. than the Republican Party."

"I reported on Wednesday that House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) was "considering" inviting Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to address a joint session of Congress. The Speaker's consideration has ended. On Thursday, Johnson said he will "certainly" invite Netanyahu to speak before Congress.

"Johnson and Netanyahu: 1, Chuck Schumer, Joe Biden, and the entire Democrat Party: 0.

"Johnson told NBC's "Squawk Box":

Democrat.

I would love to have him come in and address a joint session of Congress. We’ll certainly extend that invitation.

"Johnson said "We'll find out" if Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) will agree to allow Netanyahu to speak before a joint session of Congress.

I'm the one that extends the invitations to speak in the House, and if we just have the House, that's fine, too. But I think a big majority of that Senate would want to come and stand in support of Netanyahu and Israel.

"As you might recall, Schumer (a Jew, mind you) threw Netanyahu under the bus last Thursday in a blatant attempt to interfere in Israel's sovereignty as the Jewish state continues its stated goal of destroying Hamas after the terrorist group's horrific October 7 attack. He said:

I believe that holding a new election once the war starts to wind down would give Israelis an opportunity to express their vision for the post-war future.

"Yeah, no, Chuck — it's not your job to make that call." . . .

Schumer taught Democrats and Biden a powerful lesson

Israel As ‘A Pariah’ Among the World’s Nations › American Greatness  "Had Mr. Schumer told the truth, he would have said this: Israel's being a pariah among the world's nations tells us much more about the world's nations than about Israel." Dennis Prager

 Mark Penn  "Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., set off a firestorm of his own making last week as he decided to intervene in Israeli politics by telling Israel to abandon its leader right in the middle of sensitive negotiations with Hamas. 

"I don’t think Schumer will do that again. He heard from pretty much the world and it’s clear that Schumer is out of touch with Israel or he would have known that telling Israelis what to do is likely to produce the opposite result.

"Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu fired right back, calling it inappropriate to tell an ally and a democracy when they should hold elections and who they should vote for, especially during a war. Israel is the only democracy within the region which otherwise features everything from monarchies, theocracies, Putin puppets, and terrorist regimes. In fact, 72% in the February Economist/YouGov poll see Israel as an ally and friend, while most Americans (57%) see "Palestine" as an enemy and unfriendly. 

SCHUMER CALLS FOR NEW ISRAELI LEADER TO REPLACE NETANYAHU IN SENATE FLOOR SPEECH

"Are Schumer and Biden genuinely motivated by the conditions in war-torn Gaza or by the politics of Michigan? There are two million people in Gaza dislocated by the heinous attacks of October 7th and the resulting war to eliminate Hamas. There are 11 million people in Haiti now suddenly thrown into riotous gang rule – yet not much of a word about them nor boatloads of aid going to them. The answer is obvious – politics." . . .

The world should be on trial in Jerusalem

 Phyllis Chesler Organization  

Israel has the footage and the forensic evidence to make its case. Survivors, as well as witnesses, are plentiful. The indifferent, otherwise occupied or Jew-hating world must be confronted with what they have done. 

Nazi cells in Nuremberg trials

 "After Israel defeats Hamas in Gaza, should it try the Oct. 7 terrorists Eichmann-style in Jerusalem? Or, given Israel’s unfairly tainted reputation, might such a trial be seen as more “impartial” if it were held in Nuremberg?

"Those who believe that the Germans are more trustworthy than the Israelis are deluded. Perhaps they did not live through or study the Holocaust. Likely, they were not even born in 1972 when Palestinian terrorists massacred 11 Israeli Olympic athletes in Munich with the support of neo-Nazi Germans. The murders were enabled by the extraordinary incompetence of the German police.

"The only place a fair and trustworthy trial of Hamas could take place is Jerusalem.

"According to one prominent international lawyer:

“There’s no existing framework for trials against Hamas terrorists or the Hamas terrorist organization in Nuremberg (the closest would be trials with German prosecutors and under German law, which will never happen). There’s no way I can see any agreement for a new tribunal and, in any event, I wouldn’t have great confidence in any such tribunal judging Palestinian terrorists or even being willing to put them on trial. I would like to see fair trials of Hamas terrorists; the only chance of that is in Israel, and even in Israel, there’s a danger it would be too forgiving to the terrorists (depends on the court).”

"But we face an even greater problem: Hamas terrorists, starting with their leader Yahya Sinwar, are not the only ones who should be on trial in Jerusalem and before history.

"With a few blessed exceptions, almost the entire world must be judged for supporting Iran and Qatar’s proxy armies: Hamas, Hezbollah, Palestinian Islamic Jihad, etc.

"The United Nations belongs on trial. The only thing it has ever done is legalize Jew-hatred. They passed a resolution falsely claiming that Zionism is racism rather than a resolution that accurately stated that anti-Zionism is racism.

"The world professoriate, students, human rights activists and media also belong on trial for having incited the immediate and continuing jackal chorus for a “ceasefire,” which is the equivalent of a call to ethnically cleanse the Holy Land of Jews. Some of them have been on the Iranian and Arab oil payroll for more than 60 years.

"Iran’s leaders must also appear in the dock. The mullahs have indoctrinated, funded and strategized with not only Hamas but also the zombie armies who march for jihad in the West.

Hitler meets the Islamic Mufti of Jerusalem

"Let’s not forget every single Muslim country that has refused to offer safe passage or temporary shelter to Gaza civilians. They also belong on trial. None of them want the Arab Palestinians. They do not want the enormous trouble they will inevitably bring with them. Please note: Such countries, by refusing entry to civilians, make no distinction between the “innocent” civilians of Gaza and the terrorists whose ideology and torture control them.

"A prominent Arab anti-Islamist recently told me: “Egypt let them in and found themselves awash in their own blood. Jordan had to expel them for the same reason. Lebanon? Destroyed by them, weakened so much that Hezbollah just took Lebanon over.”

“ 'So, the Palestinians remain a Jewish burden only, is that it?” I asked.

“ 'Yes,” he said." . . .

Schumer denies Netanyahu request to address Democrats

 Sarah Fortinsky (yahoo.com)   "Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) denied a request from Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to address the Senate Democratic caucus in a virtual meeting, arguing against approaching discussions on Israel through a partisan lens.

"Netanyahu, the right-wing Israeli leader, met with Senate Republicans in a closed virtual meeting on Wednesday. A spokesperson for Schumer said in a widely reported statement that the majority leader denied Netanyahu’s similar request for Democrats.

"“Sen. Schumer made it clear that he does not think these discussions should happen in a partisan manner. That’s not helpful to Israel,” Schumer’s spokesperson said.

"Schumer’s rejection of Netanyahu’s proposal comes less than a week after the majority made waves in Washington and abroad when he issued a scathing rebuke of Netanyahu’s leadership and called for a new election.

" 'At this critical juncture, I believe a new election is the only way to allow for a healthy and open decision-making process about the future of Israel, at a time when so many Israelis have lost their confidence in the vision and direction of their government,” he said. “Holding a new election once the war starts to wind down would give Israelis an opportunity to express their vision for the post-war future.” . . .

BOOM! Jamie Raskin Fumes After Hunter Biden's Business Partner Attacks Democrats Raskin and Goldman for Lying on Behalf of Biden Crime Family

 The Gateway Pundit | by Jim Hoft

"Former Hunter Biden business partner Tony Bobulinski blasted Representatives Jamie Raskin and Don Goldman today in his opening statement before the House Oversight Committee.

"Bobulinski accused Raskin and Goldman of lying to the American public in order to protect the Biden crime family.

"The House Oversight Committee is holding its second hearing today as part of its impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden.

"Tony Bobulinski did not hold back in his opening statement.

Tony Bobulinski: Yet the same people preaching this mantra know better. They continue to lie directly to the American people without hesitation and remorse. Rep. Dan Goldman and Jamie Raskin, both lawyers, and Mr. Goldman, a former prosecutor with the SDNY from New York, will continue to lie today in this hearing and then go straight to the media to tell more lies. Hunter Biden’s defense attorney, Abby Lowell, weaponizes letters to Congress to try to smear my name. Mr. Chairman, state the cold, hard facts.

Jami Raskin: Mr. Chairman.

 "Tony Bobulinski: In an attempt to save his powerfully connected client and his father, I challenge Mr. Lowell to make those claims on national television so he can be held accountable for his lies. Prior to my successful business career, I was an officer in the United States Navy at Navy’s elite naval nuclear Power Training Command. I later served as the command’s chief technology officer.

Chairman James Comer: I apologize for the disruption from the…

Tony Bobulinski Accuses Hunter Biden, Jim of Lying under Oath about Chinese Dealings | National Review   . . ."Bobulinski cited three examples of alleged perjury from Hunter Biden’s sworn testimony last month, accusing Hunter of lying about: the timeline of his business relationship with CEFC, his father’s interactions with his business associates, and the threatening text he sent a Chinese businessman in which he demanded payment and said he was sitting next to his father.

" 'Hunter Biden gave his transcribed interview to the House Oversight Committee on February 28 and lied throughout his testimony,” Bobulinski said in his written testimony.

"Hunter Biden said his work for CEFC began with a retainer in 2017. However, Bobulinski insists, based on conversations he said he had with Hunter, that the Biden business relationship with CEFC goes back further, possibly to Joe Biden’s time as vice president. 

"Hunter Biden claimed his father never interacted with his son’s business partners and repeatedly denied his father’s involvement in those dealings.  However, Hunter Biden confirmed Joe Biden met Bobulinski and multiple foreign business partners, and spoke to business associates on speakerphone." . . .

 Lieberman: Schumer's Call to Oust Netanyahu 'Outrageous' | Newsmax.com

"Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., meddling in Israeli politics by calling for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's ouster is "outrageous" and out of bounds, according to former Sen. Joe Lieberman, I-Conn.

" 'For a U.S. senator, let alone a majority leader, let alone the highest-ranking Jewish elected official in Washington, to tell Israelis that it's time to get rid of [Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu], that's outrageous," Lieberman, founder and chair of No Labels, told Sunday's "The Cats Roundtable" on WABC 770 AM-N.Y., according to The Hill.

" 'I can't ever remember anything like it."     

"But it also shows Democrats do not treat Israel as an independent sovereign state like it does other close allies, because no one could imagine Schumer or President Joe Biden calling for the ouster of the British prime minister, Lieberman told host John Catsimatidis.

" 'Oh my God, there'd be outrage all around," Lieberman said.

"Schumer's "major address" to the Senate, claiming Netanyahu has "lost his way," was a "mistake," he added." . . .

Netanyahu Defies Biden, Green Lights Offensive Into Hamas Stronghold | The Daily Caller    "Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu gave the green light on Friday for Israel to launch a ground invasion against a Hamas stronghold in south Gaza, despite the Biden administration’s warnings, according to NBC News.

"Netanyahu’s office said in a statement that the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) is “preparing for the operational side and for the evacuation of the population” in Rafah, the southernmost region of Gaza bordering Egypt and a hotbed of remaining Hamas terrorists, according to NBC. President Joe Biden said last week that an Israeli operation in Rafah would be crossing a “red line.”

“ 'Israel has no choice but to go into Rafah, where four Hamas battalions and the Gaza-Egypt tunnels that resupply Hamas with weapons are still standing,” Mark Dubowitz, CEO of the Foundation for Defense of Democracies, previously told the DCNF. “If not, Hamas will emerge victorious and Israel will be vulnerable to more Oct. 7’s as Hamas has threatened.”

"Hamas attacked Israel on Oct. 7 and killed over 1,200 civilians and took hundreds of others hostage, prompting the ongoing counteroffensive by the IDF in Gaza." . . .

MUST-SEE VIDEO: Netanyahu concisely describes Israel’s accomplishments, goals, and commitment

  Andrea Widburg- American Thinker

. . ."The contrast between Bibi—focused, forceful, informed—and Biden is staggering. You’ve seen Bibi, above. Now, here’s Biden, the man who is slow-walking ammo to Israel and trying to force a ceasefire on Israel, all in the name of getting votes in Dearborn and other swing state regions:

We had a rescue operation. You know where we rescued two hostages a few weeks ago? You know where they were? Right in the center of Rafah. We did a surgical operation. Brilliant, by the way. 

"Israel’s Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, is the un-Biden. He’s brilliant, articulate, a proven warrior on the battlefield, a proven leader in politics, and a passionate patriot who believes in his country, its people, and its values. The other day, Bibi gave a concise speech explaining why Israel must fight its war, how it’s fighting its war, what it has achieved, what it has yet to achieve, how it’s handling and will handle Gaza’s civilian population, and why anti-Israel news broadcast in America is false (and deliberately so). It was a masterful exposition.

"Here’s the video. Don’t be put off by all the Hebrew writing. Bibi is speaking in English, a language in which he is completely fluent. I’ve also included a transcript at the end of this post:  https://twitter.com/i/status/1769772938754949153

. . .

"Biden’s partner in this slow-walk genocide against Israel is the execrable Justin Trudeau, who is refusing to resupply the arms Israel needs. To put this in context, Trudeau’s government encourages its own citizens to kill themselves rather than get medical care, medical devices, or treatment for mental illness. Trudeau is a one-man death cult, so I guess it’s inevitable that he has Hamas’s back.

"As has been the case for thousands of years, Israel and the Jews stand at the crossroads of geopolitics and morality. As God told Abraham 4,000 years ago, “And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee,” and that’s invariably proven true.

"At all places in the world and at all times in history, those who treated Jews badly fared badly. That’s because free societies support Jews (and, by extension, Israel), while corrupt, despotic societies don’t. Whether it’s Spain in the 15th century, Germany in the 1940s, or the Soviet Union throughout the 20th century, when they make the moral and/or geopolitical decision to turn on Jews, they reflect an internal evil that invariably leads to their own decline or destruction."

Israel cannot do 3/4 of the job and leave 1/4 of Hamas active

 Quora    How likely is it that the US will support a military operation in Rafah?  

"US [doesn't] need to support a military operation in Rafah and Israel is not asking for [that].  Biden administration can object to Israel operation in Rafah, but eventually it is Israel's decision to make. Biden administration's acknowledges the need to wipe out Hamas, but because of elections and far left pressure want to avoid it. 

"Israel cannot do 3/4 of the job and leave 1/4 of Hamas active. Hamas is radical fanatic Islamic jihadist terrorist organization who vow to destroy Israel. Hamas will never abandon the violence way, they just want time to recover and rebuild, therefor Israel must annihilate Hamas.

"Israel is committed to prevent radical Islam jihadists power over Gaza."


Here is hoping that Israel can save all the remaining Queen Esthers held hostage in Gaza (and the Jewish boys and men hostages too). But if it is not to be then let us hope that the IDF makes sure Hamas ends up like Haman -- for the sake of all future Queen Esthers.

"March is Women’s History Month and if the historical mistreatment of women is to serve as an important theme then we are obligated to turn our attention to the most mistreated women of them all, of late, and that would be Jewish women. Last October 7, Jewish women were, en masse, brutally raped, sexually tortured, murdered, and mutilated by Hamas. The cruelty inflicted is beyond words but Hamas was not finished. Some of the Jewish women were kidnapped and dragged away to Gaza where the abuse continues. Adding insult to injury, a complicit United Nations seems more intent on covering up the numerous atrocities committed against Jewish women on October 7 than revealing them. Imagine that -- the world cries for justice for women, but not so much if the women are Jewish.

"It just so happens that March is also the month that the Jewish holiday of Purim falls (begins sundown this Saturday). Purim celebrates the survival story of the Jewish people that took place in ancient Persia, the demise of a wicked man named Haman (top adviser to King Ahasuerus and author of the plan to massacre the Jews), and the courage of a Jewish woman who saved her people." . . .

. . ."If Hamas survives, it will rebuild and come back stronger and there will be much more death. Haman had his kill-the-Jews edict, Hamas has its own kill-the-Jews Charter. Hamas and Haman are one and the same. Hamas has been deemed a terrorist organization by the United States, the United Kingdom, Japan, and many other nations. Wouldn’t the world be a much better place without it?". . .
