Church attendance didn't predict antisemitism. Theology did.

 The Christian Post  

"Young Christian men who regularly watched Tucker Carlson, Candace Owens, or Nick Fuentes had higher average antisemitic-attitude scores than men with little or no engagement with them." 

ChatGPT

"In my survey of more than 1,000 young Christian men, church attendance did not predict antisemitic attitudes. What they believed about God’s promises to the Jewish people did.

That finding should get the Church’s attention. Young Christian men are being shaped in more than one place. What they hear in church matters. So does what they watch online.

In early summer 2026, I surveyed 1,090 Christian men ages 18–30 in the United States. I asked about their faith, media habits, politics, views of Jewish people, and comfort discussing Israel. The men came from Catholic, Evangelical, mainline, nondenominational, and other Christian traditions.

The strongest predictor of antisemitic attitudes was beliefs that God’s promises to the Jewish people have ended. When I compared the factors together, these beliefs were about four times as strong a predictor as political conservatism. Church attendance, by contrast, did not predict antisemitic attitudes in the study.

There was also a hopeful finding. Men who believed that God’s covenant with the Jewish people continues had lower antisemitic-attitude scores.

That means what churches teach matters. Christians need to ask a basic question: What does Scripture say about God’s faithfulness to the Jewish people?

Romans 11 offers a clear place to begin. Paul warns Gentile believers not to boast over the Jewish branches. He reminds them, “you do not support the root, but the root supports you” (Romans 11:18). Later in the same chapter, Paul says the Jewish people are “beloved” and that “the gifts and the calling of God are irrevocable” (Romans 11:28–29).

Christian faith cannot be separated from its Jewish roots. Jesus was Jewish. His first followers were Jewish. Much of the New Testament assumes the story, promises, and Scriptures of Israel.  In Understanding the Jewish Roots of Christianity (2021), theologian Gerald McDermott argues that Christians better understand their faith when they understand its Jewish roots." . . .

 . . . "And Christians cannot look away. Christians must confront antisemitism because hatred toward Jewish people attacks human dignity, distorts biblical truth, and ignores the Jewish roots of the Christian faith. Scripture declares that the Jewish people are not strangers to the story of redemption but are deeply woven into it. Jesus Himself was born a Jew. The apostles were Jewish. The roots of the Christian faith draw life from the promises God gave to Israel." . . .

Weaponization Working Group Releases Report on Garland Memo That Chilled Parental Rights and Warned Parents Could Be Domestic Terrorists (UPDATED)

United States Department of Justice  

"From this vantage point, America, which predominantly does not adhere to these beliefs, is the realm of the wrong path, the infidel way. That worldview is what underlies statements such as the claim that America "deserved" 9/11"

"Records show Biden White House and Justice Department leadership pushed for a memo that sought to find a federal “hook” to prosecute parents and charge protestors with federal crimes, despite widespread concerns from attorneys and agents

"Today, the Justice Department’s Weaponization Working Group issued a report detailing how Biden Administration officials at the Department of Justice explored avenues to prosecute parents and protestors who spoke to school boards and school officials during the Covid-19 pandemic.
"Today’s report focuses on the production and circulation of an October 4, 2021 memorandum sent from Attorney General Merrick Garland to the Director of the FBI, the Assistant Attorney General for the Criminal Division, the Director of the Executive Office for U.S. Attorneys, and United States Attorneys.
"On January 20, 2025, President Trump signed Executive Order 14147 to eliminate the political weaponization of federal agencies. To many Americans, Attorney General Garland’s memo embodied the misuse and weaponization of government power. This report fulfills the February 2, 2025 directive from Attorney General Pam Bondi to review the Memo and the report ordered by the President in EO 14147.
"The report details how, despite being presented with very little evidence of actual violence or violent threats against school administrators and at school board meetings, Garland arrived at a memo which claimed, “in recent months, there has been a disturbing spike in harassment, intimidation, and threats of violence.”
"The Working Group’s report makes clear that the ideological inspiration for the October 4, 2021 memo was a September 29, 2021 letter from the National School Boards Association to President Joe Biden in which the organization urged the federal government to consider that “these heinous actions” “could be equivalent to a form of domestic terrorism and hate crimes.”
"The Working Group officially acknowledges what many Americans already assumed: that as Biden Administration actions chilled the exercise of parental and free speech rights, parents who lawfully exercised their parental rights and freedom of speech were often targeted by members of the educational establishment." . . .   More.

UPDATE: When political opponents become existential threats, violence can begin to look like virtue.   . . . "For years Americans have been told that Donald Trump isn’t merely a bad president or a politician with bad ideas. He has been compared repeatedly to Adolf Hitler and his rhetoric to that of Nazi Germany, as in this example from The Atlantic.

"The Biden campaign even published a 2023 graphic titled “TRUMP PARROTS HITLER.” Democratic politicians and political organizations have made similar comparisons, and Kamala Harris publicly agreed during the 2024 campaign that Trump could be described as a fascist.

"Those are not ordinary political insults.

Hitler isn’t remembered as a German politician with whom reasonable people merely disagreed over fiscal policy. He represents one of history’s great embodiments of evil, responsible for a regime that murdered millions.

‘Evil incarnate’: Israel’s top forensic pathologist reveals unseen Oct. 7 evidence |

YNET  


"Prof. Chen Kugel says forensic evidence showed systematic killing methods across attack sites; he recalls burned and mutilated bodies, the race to identify every victim and the psychological toll that ultimately left him with PTSD; this article contains graphic images and descriptions that some readers may find disturbing"


. . . "First, he and his team decided not to send the night shift home, allowing the hospital to begin the day with twice its normal staffing level. At 7:45 a.m., they declared a mass-casualty incident, despite not yet knowing how many wounded would arrive and alerted all available staff to report to the hospital. Finally, they ordered additional blood supplies in anticipation of the surge of casualties.

"We usually start the shift with 50 units of blood in our blood bank. By the end of the day, we had given 250 units. If we hadn’t ordered additional blood early that morning, we might have run out and people may have died," Codish told Fox News Digital.

Codish said the hospital faced several overwhelming challenges throughout the day, beginning with the sheer number of wounded being brought to the hospital.

"In the first 24 hours, we received 674 wounded people. At the peak, we received more than 80 in a single hour, with an average of just 40 seconds between wounded people arriving," he said." . . .  More.

UPDATED: The IRGC’s Midterm Endorsement Creates a Problem for Democrats

Radicals in this world who kill babies with their bare hands or burn them alive, rape children in front of their families, then find support among American Democrats on the streets, schools, and in our Congress see a gold mine. They know these useful idiots support them over any morals rooted in Christian/Jewish ideals. They chant "Allahu Akbar!" and we say, "Come quickly, Lord!" TD

The American Spectator | USA News and Politics   

"It should be enough for the American voters to see the Democrats in an act of ultimate disloyalty. But … it will not be. The Iran war is a distant concern to them."


"The Democrats are in a quandary. They’re perplexed by a problem of their own making.

How can they deal with an endorsement from the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps calling on Americans to vote for Democratic candidates in the November mid-terms?  This is too delicious. I wish I had made it up, but I didn’t.

"I’ve lost count of the War Powers Resolution bills that the Dems have offered to end the Iran war abruptly. They have all failed — not because Americans recognize the legitimacy of the war against Iran’s nuclear weapons — but because Republicans have managed so far to kill the bills.

"Kamala Harris is among the presidential contenders who oppose the Iran war. In Illinois, Lt. Gov. Juliana Stratton and U.S. Rep. Robin Kelly — contenders to succeed Sen. Dick Durbin — have both promised to vote against further funding for the Iran war.

"Michigan Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed said he didn’t want to comment on Ayatollah Khamenei’s death because “there are a lot of people in Dearborn who are sad today.” When confronted by a student whose family was persecuted by the Tehran regime, El-Sayed responded by arguing that the United States has too often acted as “the world’s policeman” while saying he supported movements for democracy and freedom abroad. As if there is any democracy or freedom in Iran.

"Rep. Raja Krishnamoorti (D-Chicago) said the war was illegal and unconstitutional.

"On September 29, the IRGC sent a very long letter to the American people urging them to vote against any candidates backed by President Trump because he and Israel were the cause of the war. The letter also claimed that the Iranian nuclear program was entirely peaceful and that the IRGC was not a terrorist group, writing that there was not, “a single verifiable instance where the IRGC has committed an act of violence against civilians.”

"The IRGC has been the principal terrorist arm of the Tehran regime. It controls Iran’s ballistic missiles and its terrorist proxy forces such as Hamas and Hizballah. They are responsible for Iran’s attacks on oil tankers and much more.

"The IRGC are the first to line up to chant “death to America” and to force others to chant the same. The IRGC has committed thousands of murders of Iranian civilians as well as attempted assassinations of dissidents in other countries. The Iranian nuclear program has even been condemned by the UN’s International Atomic Energy Agency for enriching uranium far beyond what would be required for a nuclear power plant." . . . More.

UPDATE: They Hate America :: Gatestone Institute   "Coming from a Muslim family and being raised in Syria and Iran, I am all too aware of politicians and influencers such as Abdul El-Sayed, Zohran Mamdani and others who carry that same formative identity.

"Americans should be clear-eyed: Islamist politicians and influencers in the United States will never place their first loyalty with America. It will not happen. Do not even think about it.

"For some, the feeling goes further into genuine hatred of America, Western civilization and the freedom individuals have to choose how they live. The pursuit of office and influence is driven by the aim of advancing their core identity, not of strengthening the nation that granted them the opportunity." . . .

Hamas-led attacks on Israel on 7 October 2023, which killed about 1,200 people and involved mass shootings, hostage‑taking, rapes and horrific assaults on civilian communities.

As noted in the end of this article about the French protests, “student organizations are nevertheless calling for protests to continue, with the movement now looking towards Tuesday’s National Day of Action.”

EUROPE – Around 400 of France’s 3,700 secondary schools were closed on Friday on the orders of police prefects, with many schools switching to online lessons.

Education Minister Edouard Geffray urged parents to intervene, warning that young people were putting themselves at risk.

“Children are in danger on the streets,” he told BFMTV. “Parents must, quite clearly, take action and tell their children not to go [to the blockades].” The protests began over staffing, funding and school conditions and have spread rapidly across the country.

The Interior Ministry said 1,027 secondary schools were affected on Thursday, including 222 that were blockaded. Around 30 university campuses were also blocked.

It said 1,949 people were arrested on Thursday alone, mainly in connection with violence, unlawful gatherings and attacks on people in positions of authority. (read more) . . .  More.

Of course, the Flydubai event was terrorism

"The co-pilot has admitted that he intended to kill thousands of people on Israeli soil."

Andrea Widburg

"It would have been the largest mass-casualty event ever. Instead, it was something else. We can point to luck, coincidence, or a higher power, but whatever the cause, something amazing happened last week."

. . . "If you’re looking for miracles in daily life, consider the successive miracles that had to occur for the Flydubai flight to land with no serious injuries other than those Captain Smit Machchhar sustained in the original attack. Here are those miracles:

  • Captain Machchhar opened the reinforced locked door. Had he not done so, the plane would have crashed, and all would have died.

  • The Boeing-manufactured 737 plane withstood a sudden 16,000-foot plunge at almost supersonic speeds, something it was not built to handle.

  • Several passengers, instead of panicking, reacted quickly and headed straight to the cockpit and were able to enter it.

  • Having stormed the cabin, they were not deterred by the fact that the co-pilot was armed with a deadly axe and was using it to disable the plane’s controls. They pulled him away from the instrument panel and tied him up with the cords from the airline’s cheesy free headsets.

  • Yaniv Hayoun, a plumber who liked watching shows about airplane crashes, knew enough to push forward the control yoke that allowed the plane to level out—which, thankfully, the co-pilot hadn’t destroyed.

  • The plane, having survived the first plunge, survived being leveled and continued to be airworthy despite serious structural damage.

  • There were other pilots on the plane who were safely able to land it.

"That’s a whole lot of miracles for an event that took almost as little time to happen (up until the landing part) as it took me to write this or you to read it. Indeed, one Israeli who was actually on the flight noted that there were many more that did not make the headlines: . . . More.

White House begins mailing $500 ObamaCare 'refund' checks

The Hill 

 “You have paid into this flawed System, and now you are finally getting something back,” Trump said in the letter. 


"The White House began mailing $500 refund checks Wednesday to just about 1 million Americans who the administration says were overcharged for their ObamaCare insurance. 

"Treasury Department checks will begin going out to more than 950,000 Americans across 30 states that use healthcare.gov, the federal marketplace where people sign up for ObamaCare health insurance, according to an administration official. 

“For years, the Biden administration overcharged you to fund the operation of HealthCare.gov,” President Trump wrote in a letter accompanying the checks that was shared with The Hill. “That money belongs to hard-working Americans, not the Government, and now I’m returning it to you!” 

"Direct payments to consumers are a key part of Trump’s health plan. The president has touted taking money intended for enhanced ObamaCare subsidies and paying it directly back to Americans to let them purchase their own health insurance.  

"There are 19.2 million people enrolled in Affordable Care Act coverage, so only a small fraction will be eligible for the rebates. People who still get premium subsidies aren’t eligible, nor are the people who live in the mostly blue states that operate their own exchanges. 

"Texas and Florida have the most residents who will receive money, according to a White House tally. In Florida, the administration estimates 127,900 people will receive a refund. Officials estimate there are 139,000 eligible people in Texas.  

"Most of the recipients of these checks will be people who earn above 400 percent of the federal poverty level — $64,000 for a single person or $132,000 for a family of four.

"These higher-income earners no longer receive financial assistance to help them afford premiums after congressional Republicans, backed by the Trump administration, let ObamaCare’s enhanced subsidies expire at the end of last year.  

"The loss of the enhanced subsidies caused many people’s premiums to double or even triple, prompting millions to downgrade their plans or drop coverage entirely." . . . More.

How We Got Where We Are

 Power Line  

"Klobuchar was in the Senate throughout the time when fraudsters fleeced federal programs administered by the Tim Walz administration to the tune of more than $9 billion. Not only did she do nothing to stop the fraud, she actually made it worse through her earmarks."

"Minnesota is a complete mess, and if there is a silver lining, it is that most Minnesotans understand how bad things are. You can’t solve a problem until you admit that you have it, and in American Experiment’s Thinking Minnesota Poll, 58% say their state is on the wrong track.

"How did things go so disastrously wrong? Taxes are absurdly high, for one thing: Minnesota, for example, taxes small businesses more heavily than any other state. But Minnesota has become infamous, more than anything else, for an incompetent state government that has allowed thieves, overwhelmingly Somalis, to steal billions of dollars with an ease that could be likened to taking candy from a baby. But that would be unfair to babies.

"The roots of the fiasco lie deep; this video of Senator Amy Klobuchar reveals the attitudes that made industrial-scale fraud inevitable. Klobuchar was actually proud of the fact that she made it easy for Somalis to send money back to their home country; it turned out that much, likely most, of that money was stolen from Minnesota’s welfare programs. And in a sea of Somali flags, Klobuchar sees nothing but DFL votes. Assimilation? Who needs it?" . . .

Iranian Leader Tries to Unload on Trump, but POTUS' Response to the Regime Is Priceless

"Iran is basically hanging on by a thread at this point, and all the regime has going for them are their loud mouths because everything else is in collapse. 

"But they're hoping against hope that they can somehow head that off. 

"As we reported on Sept. 30, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) even released an open letter to the American people, begging us to vote against President Donald Trump. Except he isn't running, and voting for Democrats won't really change his power as Commander-in-Chief. The regime doesn't appear to understand how our system works in that regard, and the letter was full of delusional takes. 

"But it said something about how they might be perhaps deluding themselves with Democrat propaganda. In the letter, they claimed the "No Kings" protests were an indication of Americans rising up against Trump, and they called for more. But the funny thing is, if Iran is winning, why would they need to appeal to the American people? Of course they're not winning; they're in deep trouble, they know it, and they're getting desperate. 

"But Iranian Supreme National Security Council Secretary Mohsen Rezaei kept trying that approach with an(sp) blatant attack on Trump on Friday.

"After one failure after another, the worst president in American history just keeps talking — and talking — and now his words have even outrun his own fantasies," Rezaei wrote on X.

The Very Real Danger of Abdul El-Sayed

  PJ Media

"An Abdul El-Sayed supporter said voters are “stupid” and the best way to win is to hide the truth." 

"Jordan Domingue, a former Marine, was the top security official for Michigan Democratic Party Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed until January 2026, when he resigned due to El-Sayed's dangerous antisemitic views. Then Domingue began to talk.

"Domingue spent more than ten years working in the State Department and as an overseas security professional. He was an El-Sayed gospeller, and worked on El-Sayed's failed 2018 gubernatorial bid.

"When Domingue resigned, he was offered a cash settlement to keep his mouth shut about what he had seen and heard while working for El-Sayed. 

“'I wanted to warn people about Abdul, but it wouldn’t be right to do so after taking their money and breaking a commitment that I would’ve signed,” Domingue claimed, as per an exclusive article in the Michigan Enjoyer.

"Domingue discussed a conversation between him and El-Sayed about how removing funding for Israel's Iron Dome could result in a high cost in civilian lives, as large apartment buildings could come crashing down after missile attacks. Domingue claims El-Sayed was indifferent to the potential human suffering, and clung to his belief that defunding the dome was a groovy idea.

FACT-O-RAMA! Even the darling of the DSA, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, voted against defunding the dome. The DSA withdrew their support of AOC in July 2025 for not hating the Jews enough.

"Domingue claims he tried to "steer El-Sayed away from these bad positions, and thought they were just ignorant and ill-informed," and even referred to him as a political "chameleon." . . .More.

Israelis Stopped a Terrorist Hijacking. Why Did the Media Call It an ‘Altercation’?

"Passengers aboard Flydubai Flight 1073 helped avert catastrophe, while major Western outlets described the cockpit attack in strikingly neutral terms."

The American Spectator   

"So the people we rely upon to tell us the news dragged their feet on one of the biggest stories of the year, because Israelis saved the day."


"Thanks to the tenacity, bravery, and ingenuity of some everyman Israeli passengers, we’ll remember Sept. 30 as just another day, rather than another 9/11. But it came close. Last Wednesday, a routine Dubai-Tel Aviv flight was menaced when a co-pilot stabbed his captain and commenced a wrenching nosedive that saw the aircraft lose nearly three miles of altitude in around a minute. Quick-thinking Israeli travelers stormed the cockpit, subdued the attacker, righted the plane, and likely saved 174 lives.
"However, you might have missed these details if you’d been following along in conventional media. The story reached American and British front pages hours after Israeli ones, including Israeli outlets reporting in English such as the Jerusalem Post and Times of Israel. Even then, per the BBC and the New York Times, what occurred on FlyDubai flight 1073 was only a “fight” or “altercation” between pilots. Nothing to worry about. Note their stories were published hours after the plane reported an alert code signaling “unlawful interference,” meaning hijacking or hostage-taking — facts reflected in Israeli media within minutes.
"Many more examples abound, from CNN and The Washington Post to Sky News and The Guardian: outlets waited as long as they could to begin using terms like “stabbing” and “hijacking.” For hours they further couched their coverage as mere reporting of Israeli statements, wrapping headlines in language such as “Netanyahu says” — introducing needless and wholly avoidable skepticism. Some employed this terminology even after witnesses had landed in Saudi Arabia and had begun speaking as primary sources to international media.
"What’s going on? Since being first to press is industry currency, why wouldn’t major outlets want to land on the most sensational story possible as soon as it’s verified?
"The answer gets to an uncomfortable truth about the intersection between modern journalism, politics, and culture. In contrast to the golden age of Western broadcasting, where “the most trusted man in America” would report the news straight to millions of people, today it is more often the tail of opinion wagging the dog of media — in which journalists’ own perspectives (and perceptions of the perspectives of their audiences) increasingly color their coverage. Research on this phenomenon is limited but growing." . . .  More.

MSNOW: BREAKING: Dubai flight to Israel diverted after cockpit incident

MSNOW: Attacker’s motive remains unknown after FlyDubai flight to Israel escapes disaster

"Veteran Pilot Startles Leftist Interviewer With the Truth About the Dubai Hijacking – PJ Media  "The establishment media does its level best to obscure the motivating ideology behind jihad violence, and to exonerate Islam from all responsibility for the crimes done in its name and in accord with its teachings. Occasionally, however, the truth gets through by accident, as in a recent interview Australia’s News 24 conducted about the attempted jihadist hijacking of a Flydubai flight from Dubai to Tel Aviv.

"News 24 was interviewing a veteran pilot, Captain Byron Bailey. The interviewer opened the door to the truth being told when she asked him how the whole thing had happened. Bailey responded:

Yeah, I'm not really surprised with Flydubai, operating Dubai to Tel Aviv, and with Muslim pilots, or not all Muslim, but — the captain was Indian. He was the real hero in this I've flown in and out of Tel Aviv with the British airline a lot. I also flew many times out of Dubai, so I'm fairly aware of the whole situation. 

But how deep do you want to go into it? Because I, I hear, them saying, “Oh, we wonder what the motive is.” Well, excuse me, in Du— in the Middle East, the motive is, the fact that Islam calls for the death of Jews. All Jews. It's part of the core belief of Islam. This whole commission, this joke they had in Australia recently about antisemitism, just ignores the reality of what is the core belief of Islam that all Jews must die until the world becomes pure, free of Jews. 

"At this point, the interviewer, sensing that this interview had spun wildly out of her control, tried to rein Bailey in, interjecting “Okay—” But the indomitable old captain blandly continued:

But this was actually probably an act of religious devotion where the guy took the advantage of the fact that he could kill Jews and martyr himself in the process, because that's what they want to do." . . .  More.
