British rappers banned from USA after inciting against IDF

The Bob Vylan rap band in Britain led incitement against the Israeli army, and it resulted in having their visas revoked by the USA state department:

The State Department announced Monday that it revoked visas for a British rap group after it called for the death of Israeli soldiers onstage over the weekend.

Members of the Bob Vylan band no longer can travel to the U.S. “in light of their hateful tirade … including leading the crowd in death chants” at a Saturday music festival in the U.K., Deputy Secretary of State Christopher Landau said in a Monday X post. The State Department’s action aligns with the Trump administration’s policy of renewed scrutiny of foreigners’ visas over alleged hostility toward American values or national security.

“Foreigners who glorify violence and hatred are not welcome visitors to our country,” Landau said. [...]

The band’s frontman, Pascal Robinson-Foster, led an audience in anti-Israel chants such as “death, death to the IDF” — referring to the Israel Defense Forces — at the Glastonbury Festival in Somerset, England on Saturday, the BBC reported.

The group’s performance sparked widespread backlash, and the festival said it was “appalled” in a Sunday statement.

It's stunning how only so many people in the entertainment industry won't keep their mouths shut and go miles out of their way to glamorize repulsive acts. But now, the band in the long run might've wound up doing the opposite of what they hoped for - to be exiled from a civilized country based on what they said.

Ayman Odeh must be expelled from Knesset

A Knesset committee voted to expel the Islamic Knesset member Ayman Odeh over his support for Hamas and Hezbollah:

The Knesset Committee voted on Monday afternoon, with a majority of 14 MKs against 2 opponents, in favor of ousting MK Ayman Odeh.

All representatives of the coalition parties supported the proposal, along with representatives from Yisrael Beytenu, Yesh Atid, and the National Unity Party.

The dismissal procedure will be brought to the Knesset plenum within three weeks, where a majority of 90 MKs will be required to finalize it.

The initiator of the discussion, MK Avichai Boaron, stated: “Throughout all the deliberations, he neither apologized nor retracted his statements—in fact, he repeated them. He refuses to recognize Hamas and Hezbollah as terrorist organizations. One cannot separate his remarks from the broader context, and therefore I am confident the decision will pass with a large majority in the Knesset plenum.”

Committee Chairman Ofir Katz added: “In a proper country, Ayman Odeh would be rotting in jail and stripped of his citizenship. I sincerely hope Yesh Atid and the National Unity Party won’t backtrack or play a double game when this reaches the plenum. Ayman Odeh must be kicked out.”

An excellent point. Failure to do so will only be a slight to the victims of October 7, 2023. Do those 2 left-wing parties want to look bad in this specific affair?

Several Muslims pricked at least 150 people with syringes in France

This terrible incident, which was obviously coordinated, took place during a music festival night (via Geller Report and Jihad Watch):

Two individuals suspected of having needle-sticked a young woman in a bar in Six-Fours were arrested and then imprisoned.

Two individuals, of Turkish nationality and aged 31 and 33, were arrested on Saturday and placed in pre-trial detention as part of a complaint after injections in a bar six-fournais, indicates a police source to BFM Toulon Var.

Two suspects arrested

A 25-year-old woman filed a complaint the previous week after being stung at around 1 a.m. while at Eden Bar. In the middle of the hearing, the victim, feeling unwell, was evacuated to the hospital to carry out examinations, in particular blood and urine.

“The establishment’s video surveillance made it possible to identify two suspects, also recognized by the young woman and a witness, who were near the victim and who were hiding something,” said a source familiar with the matter.

According to Samuel Finielz, prosecutor of Toulon, the victim saw the “two individuals gravitating around her. One of them made a sign to the other before stinging the young woman in the elbow.” It was finally during the night of Friday to Saturday that one of the suspects was arrested by the police at the scene in collaboration with the establishment. Placed in police custody, the individual denied the facts.

Syringes found in the home of one of the suspects

Still according to our information, the search of the telephone records of the thirty-something made it possible to identify the second suspect, aged 31, placed in turn in police custody. The individual also denied the facts.

“During the search of the latter’s home, syringes, needles and drugs in vials were seized on the premises,” said the prosecutor.

Referred this Sunday, the two individuals were indicted for “aggravated violence” by three circumstances: “weapon”, “premeditation” and “in a meeting” resulting in an ITT of less than 8 days. The two individuals were imprisoned in La Farlède prison….

As a reminder, since the beginning of June, three people have been imprisoned for injections in the Var. The first, a 20-year-old Tunisian, had been imprisoned following an indictment arising from facts produced during “The Song of the Year”, on the beaches of Mourillon.

This is repulsive. But it's another example of the lengths jihadists will go to in order to strike at infidels. And the worst part is that, if deportation matters, the creeps likely won't be.

New ideal emphasis on Fidelity Month

As LGBT celebrations are waning in the USA, a new emphasis on "Fidelity Month" is coming about:

The enthusiasm for “Pride Month” has dwindled: White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said the administration has “no plans” to issue a proclamation recognizing June as “Pride Month,” while major corporations have scaled back on pride-themed merchandise.

Not only is “Pride Month” activity dying down, another movement, one that emphasizes traditional values, looks to be growing in its place.

Since Princeton professor Robert P. George launched it in June 2023, “Fidelity Month” — which emphasizes “God, family, country” — has grown considerably, even though it isn’t a formal organization and there isn’t a single staff member whose work is focused on the initiative.

“We have become unmoored as a society. The most basic and fundamental connections which stabilize our culture have been under attack for several years, and the divisiveness and animosity dominating political discourse is a direct symptom of this larger problem,” said Greg Schaller, director of the Centennial Institute at Colorado Christian University. “Robert P. George’s initiative to recommit ourselves to God, family, and country is a vital step in reclaiming the culture to promote a stable and prosperous society.”

It sounds like a very impressive and challenging idea, though even more important would have to be a recent concept of Heterosexual Awesomeness Month", which was thought up by a restauranteur some time ago. For now, I wish the organizers of this specific idea good luck in promoting it, and I'd strongly recommend Judaist movements try it out too.

Trump's olive branch for Netanyahu

A few days after Donald Trump made the mistake of resorting to moral equivalence when it came to Israel and Iran, now the POTUS appears to be reconciling by demanding a court case against Benjamin Netanyahu be closed, since it's all just petty accusations:

US President Donald Trump on Wednesday issued a scathing denunciation of the legal proceedings against Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, labeling the trial a "ridiculous Witch Hunt" and calling for its immediate cancellation or a pardon for the Prime Minister.

In a lengthy post on his Truth Social platform, Trump expressed his "shocked" reaction to news that Netanyahu is scheduled to appear in court again, describing the Prime Minister as a "Great War Time Prime Minister!" and a "WARRIOR, like perhaps no other Warrior in the History of Israel." [...]

Trump noted his dismay at learning of the Prime Minister's court summons on Monday for a "long running… politically motivated case." Trump specifically mentioned the charges as "concerning cigars, a Bugs Bunny doll, and numerous other unfair charges," characterizing the entire ordeal as a "Horror Show" that has persisted "since May of 2020 - Unheard of! This is the first time a sitting Israeli Prime Minister has ever been on trial."

Trump concluded his post by writing, "Such a WITCH HUNT, for a man who has given so much, is unthinkable to me. He deserves much better than this, and so does the State of Israel." He then directly demanded, "Bibi Netanyahu’s trial should be CANCELLED, IMMEDIATELY, or a Pardon given to a Great Hero, who has done so much for the State."

Wow, now this is an improvement. Similar points and statements have to be made about Europe, and anybody there who's been wrongly persecuted by apologists for Islam. It'll certainly be fortunate if Trump avoids the kind of moral equations he made going forward. But he'll also have to stop with the approach demanding a "ceasefire" instead of a surrender by the enemy, because failure demand the latter only perpetuates a bad scenario best avoided when dealing with serious issues.

NYC's Democrat committee elects Muslim candidate to run for mayor

It's very sad that NYC, already in tatters ever since Rudy Giuliani left office, is now facing the prospect of having a Muslim candidate elected to mayor's office, much like London's long had Sadiq Khan as their overlord. And the worst part about socialist-supporting candidate Zohran Mamdani is that he's made statements condoning "intifada":

Zohran Mamdani, a Democrat running for mayor of New York, drew pushback from Jewish organizations and political leaders this week after he appeared to defend the slogan “globalize the intifada.”

In an interview with The Bulwark posted Tuesday, Mamdani was asked whether the expression made him uncomfortable. In response, he said the slogan captured “a desperate desire for equality and equal rights in standing up for Palestinian human rights.” He said the U.S. Holocaust Museum had used the word “intifada” in Arabic-language descriptions of the 1943 Warsaw Ghetto Uprising against Nazi Germany.

Oh, so he's using the approach of a USA-based Holocaust museum, leftist as it can definitely be, as the shield for his comments? Well, no shock there. The museum's staff did respond though:

The Washington-based U.S. Holocaust Museum sharply condemned Mamdani’s remarks Wednesday on X: “Exploiting the Museum and the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising to sanitize ‘globalize the intifada’ is outrageous and especially offensive to survivors. Since 1987 Jews have been attacked and murdered under its banner. All leaders must condemn its use and the abuse of history.”

The museum did not immediately respond to a request for comment on how it had translated the Warsaw Uprising into Arabic.

Well if they actually did use the word, which has long been synonymous with jihadist terrorist riots, they gave him a weapon they shouldn't have. These left-wing institutions have long been a PC joke.

Seeing how the disgraced Andrew Cuomo, who'd been accused of sexual misconduct, was the candidate who ran against Mamdani in the primary, one must wonder if it was deliberate in order to make Mamdani look good. He has faced criticism even from some Democrats though:

“Socialist Zohran Mamdani is too extreme to lead New York City,” Gillen said. “His entire campaign has been built on unachievable promises and higher taxes, which is the last thing New York needs.”

“Beyond that, Mr. Mamdani has called to defund the police and has demonstrated a deeply disturbing pattern of unacceptable antisemitic comments which stoke hate at a time when antisemitism is skyrocketing,” Gillen continued. “He is the absolute wrong choice for New York.”

But are they going to oppose him in any way if he's elected mayor? It's unlikely. Unless Curtis Sliwa is elected mayor, this is bound to really plunge NYC into darkness. Mamdani is just one more reason why I've never felt any attachment to NYC.

Update: Pamela Geller discovered something even more chilling about Mamdani:

Remember back in 2013 when two Islamist terrorists used a meat cleaver to try to behead British soldier Lee Rigby in the streets of London?

Zohran shared a 2013 article by Glenn Greenwald questioning whether the killing was terrorism because Rigby was a soldier pic.twitter.com/F5eMdFQo9i

Even if there was a low turnout for the primary election, this only makes the whole case much more alarming.

Marjorie Taylor Greene again proves an embarrassment

Georgia Republican Taylor Greene has been discovered spouting antisemitic conspiracy theories again:

US Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga) spread a conspiracy theory tying the State of Israel to the assassination of President John F. Kennedy during an online spat with Fox News host Mark R. Levin.

In a lengthy post on X, Greene told Levin, "Let me introduce you to my friend Jesus," and then "Jesus will return one day and those that did not recognize him will mourn."

Later in the post, she wrote, in apparent reference to President Kennedy: There was once a great President that the American people loved. He opposed Israel’s nuclear program. And then he was assassinated."

Greene has opposed America's support for Israel's recent operation to eliminate the Iranian nuclear weapons program as well as America's bombing of Iranian nuclear facilities over the weekend.

This definitely isn't setting a good example. Seriously, she should be expelled from Congress for this, along with "the squad" coming from the Democrats, which includes Ilhan Omar. Greene is one very awful lot for a so-called conservative.

Orthodox church in Syria was attacked by suicide bomber

At least 30 people were injured/murdered by a jihadist suicide bomber at a Greek Orthodox church in Syria, in a sign of how making faustian pacts with Islamofascists in that area is a very bad idea:

A suicide bomber in Syria on Sunday detonated himself inside a church filled with people, state television and a war monitor said.

The explosion in Dweil’a in the outskirts of Damascus took place as people were praying inside the Mar Elias Church. Britain-based war monitor the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights says there were 30 people wounded and killed, but the exact numbers are unclear. Some local media reported that children were among the casualties.

Though authorities in Syria arrested some jihadists who were linked to the attack, this is still a very horrifying incident, one that mainstream politicians are refusing to address. And so long as they don't, it'll end very, very badly.

Trump now declares "ceasefire" between Israel and Iran, but it'll be dangerous if it gives the mullahs a lifeline

President Donald Trump had a "ceasefire" brokered by the emir of Qatar for Iran to stop firing their missiles at Israel, which would enable the latter to stop fighting as well. But seriously, as bad as it's been that Iran would fire at Israel, and has cost innocent lives, is that what we're really after? The op-ed says:

This leaves us at FrontPageMag wondering: Does this mean that the world’s leading state sponsor of terrorism can get back to its business of terror? Will the terror regime cease and desist from its chants of “Death to America” — and renounce its ideology of our nation being the “Big Satan” and Israel the “Little Satan”? And what happens when Iran goes back to its terror business?

Finally, is the world simply going to stand by and observe the Iranian tyrants continue torturing their own people?

Islamic law stipulates that Muslim forces do not ask for a truce unless they are losing and need time to gather strength so that they can fight again more effectively later. A ceasefire with Muslim terrorists just allows them to regroup for the next war. What guarantee is there or could there possibly be that the Islamic Republic will not continue pursuing its goals of destroying Israel and America as well?

And how does all of this fit with Crown Prince Reza Pahlavi warning the West, on Monday morning, against throwing the Iranian regime a lifeline, stressing that doing so would cause more bloodshed and chaos?

Those are solid points right there. Also note that just shortly after the announcement, Iran fired more missiles at Israel, and one cost 5 lives in Be'er Sheva. That it was ostensibly a "safe" room didn't avail.

Prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu has said that Israel will respond to any violations, but what really matters is if the ayatollah regime can be brought down, and again, is the western public really going to turn their backs upon what sadism could be inflicted upon innocent people in Iran, if the dictatorship continues? Well that's exactly what's disturbing to think about, and it can't be overlooked or ignored.

Update: and now, at 10:30am, after the time the "ceasefire" was supposed to have taken place, it was violated with at least one more missile:

Sirens sounded across northern Israel shortly after 10:30 a.m. on Tuesday, after Iran launched a ballistic missile toward Israeli territory.

The IDF called on the public to follow the instructions of the Home Front Command and stated that the IAF was operating to intercept and strike where necessary to eliminate the threat.

The missile was assumed to have been intercepted; no injuries or fallen projectiles were reported.

The launch came three and a half hours after a ceasefire between Israel and Iran went into effect.

Minister of Defense Israel Katz condemned the violation of the ceasefire and stated: "In light of Iran's blatant violation of the ceasefire declared by the President of the United States, and the launch of missiles toward Israel—and in accordance with the Israeli government's policy to respond forcefully to any violation—I have instructed the IDF, in coordination with the Prime Minister, to continue the intensified strike operations in Tehran, targeting regime assets and terrorist infrastructure in the city. This follows the actions carried out yesterday."

Undoubtably, more action will be required in Tehran itself, to destroy all government infrastructure there, if that's what helps take down the mullah regime, and Khameini should be punished for his own part in the evils too. Here's more on the latest news.

Update 2: this is very unpleasant to discover Trump resorted to moral equivalence:

Allegations Iran launched a barrage of missiles at Israel early Tuesday morning more than two hours after the ceasefire began, which Tehran denied even as Israel announced a response, has drawn criticism of both parties by President Donald Trump.

[...] Now Trump has intervened, saying both Israel and Iran violated ceasefire terms with attacks following an early Tuesday deadline to cease hostilities, declaring “they both don’t know what the fuck they are doing.”

Trump made the comments to reporters at the White House before departing for the NATO summit at The Hague. He expressed disappointment about the continued attacks, adding he did not like that Israel had “unloaded” right after they agreed to end hostilities.

“They violated it but Israel violated it too,” Trump said. He added, ”I’m not happy with Israel.”

Trump further ordered Israel to cease and desist with its response, using his social media outlet Truth Social to deliver the message.

Well this is very disturbing, because moral equivalence is one of the most dangerous tactics of the modern world, and it reminds me that recently, Trump got India to refrain from going to war with Pakistan, even after a terrorist attack that resulted in several people murdered. This does a terrible disfavor to Israeli victims, and implies Israel is not allowed to take penalizing measures against Iran, even after a ceasefire violation, and the same can be said about how Trump handled the India issue. This is very troubling, and it'll remain to be seen how Netanyahu intends to discuss this going forward.

Update 3: Netanyahu may have agreed with Trump, but sought to set the record straight on the issue. And a valid point can be made that Trump's not doing the right thing by letting Iran's attack on a USA base in Qatar go without severe response.

Iran declares war upon USA

As was surely expected by many after the USA military destroyed Iran's nuclear centers, now Iran's monsters have tried to attack USA military installations in Qatar:

Iran launched missiles at US bases in Qatar on Monday, in response to the American strike on its nuclear sites over the weekend.

Iran says it launched missiles at the American Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar and a base in Iraq. However, a US military official told Reuters that no Iranian attack was recorded at any US base other than that in Qatar.

A short time later, Qatar announced that it had intercepted all the missiles that were launched. [...]

White House sources told CNN that Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman Dan Caine were in the Situation Room during the attack.

Here's more on the developing issue:

Iran had been threatening retaliation against U.S. bases in the Middle East in retaliation for the U.S. attack this weekend on Iran’s nuclear sites at Fordow, Isfahan, and Natanz.

The U.S. had moved air and naval assets out of harm’s way in anticipation. [...]

President Donald Trump had spoken to American troops at the base during his Middle East visit earlier this year. The U.S. moved air assets away from the base last week, apparently in anticipation of an attack (or retaliation for a U.S. strike on Iran).

Likewise, the U.S. Navy had dispersed ships that had been docked in Bahrain, minimizing the risk of damage.

Even before this, Iran was giving signs they wanted to attack USA sources as much as Israel. Now, we must hope serious action will be taken against the ayatollahs for real. Thank goodness nobody was hurt in the attempted attack on the bases at Qatar.

Haredi schools in certain cities violated security rules during wartime

It turns out, unshockingly, that some Haredi schools were operating in violation of security rules set by the Home Front Command, and are hopefully now facing legal action:

The Education Ministry is taking enforcement actions against haredi institutions operating in violation of Home Front Command instructions.

The ministry stated, "Following information received about educational institutions operating contrary to the law and defense instructions, the Ministry has sent inspectors to schools across the country to ensure compliance with the mandatory guidelines."

In institutions where prohibited educational activities were found, immediate actions were taken: closure orders were issued, and budget transfers were halted.

The operation targeted educational institutions operating in several cities, including Jerusalem, Bnei Brak, Tiberias, Rehovot, Modi'in Illit, and Beitar Illit.

Education Minister Yoav Kisch stated, "The lives of our children come first. Any educational institution that violates Home Front Command guidelines will be dealt with immediately using the clear measures available to the Ministry: sending inspectors, issuing closure orders, and halting budgets. There are no compromises when it comes to student safety. This is a national responsibility, and we are using all the tools at our disposal."

As reprehensible as it is, these violations have sadly been common for possibly decades. Mainly because the parents won't show the courage to leave the lifestyle. And so, it causes only so much frustration as a result.

Hamas agitator Mahmoud Khalil attacks USA policy after judge tragically orders his release

It's very sad that so far, Mahmoud Khalil, the pro-Hamas advocate who violated the terms of his citizenship in the USA, was released following the orders of a judge who took his side despite his dark record, and now, Khalil is continuing to bash the USA alongside one of the worst Democrat members of Congress:

Syrian-born anti-Israel activist Mahmoud Khalil, released from detention despite alleged Hamas ties, vowed on Saturday to continue anti-Israel protests while appearing alongside Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) at a New Jersey airport.

Khalil, 30, spent 104 days in a Lousina detention center after his March 8 arrest, as the Trump administration sought to deport the Columbia student for allegedly engaging in activities “aligned to Hamas,” the Palestinian terrorist group responsible for the October 7, 2023, attacks on Israel.

Immediately upon his Friday release following a court order from U.S. District Judge Michael Farbiarz, Khalil bashed the U.S.-funded “genocide” in Gaza, and even vowed to fight for the rights of the “incredible men” he was imprisoned with in Louisiana, per the New York Post.

“The U.S. government is funding this genocide, and Columbia University is investing in this genocide,” Khalil declared at the airport. “This is what I was protesting. This is what I will continue to protest with every one of you. Not only if they threaten me with detention, even if they would kill me, I would still speak up for Palestine.”

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who joined Khalil at Newark Liberty International Airport alongside his wife and their newborn son, claimed the allegations against Khalil were politically motivated.

It's interesting that according to this news, he appears to be turning against Columbia, even though they hardly seem repentant for their grave misdeeds. That said, this is a travesty of justice, and now will make things harder to get him out of the country. The Trump administration shouldn't have waited for the courts to deal with this.

Now, just a few days after his release, Khalil returned immediately to participation in anti-Israel/USA protests, and even supports the Iranian mullahs:

BREAKING: Just days after being freed from ICE detention, Mahmoud Khalil helps lead chants at Pro-Palestine march from Columbia University. The green card–holding activist was arrested in March, held for 104 days, and released on bail after a federal judge ruled his detention… pic.twitter.com/zrWOIIpz88

— Oliya Scootercaster 🛴 (@ScooterCasterNY) June 22, 2025

This too is quite telling, and should be considered a violation of any restrictions one would assume Khalil had imposed on him as release conditions. Again, this is turning out to be a serious judicial embarrassment, and a humiliation for USA legal systems.

Hayden Daniel upholds "isolationism", yet calls Mark Levin a "neocon"

Wow, I thought it was bad enough when the Federalist's senior editor, John Daniel Davidson, was opposing wars to defeat evil entities, and practically saying what followers of Islam would want to hear. Now, prior to when Donald Trump approved of US military strikes on Iran's nuclear sites, Hayden Daniel wrote similar blabber, claiming they're nothing more than "forever wars", and even calling Mark Levin a "neocon", which happens to be the description best applied to right-wingers who uphold isolationism. Here's what Daniel says:

Now, Mark Levin, in his zealous crusade to push the United States into directly joining Israel’s strikes against Iran, has invoked the most tired and most misconstrued talking point related to the Second World War: appeasement.

Levin’s screed (it’s far too light on substance to be called an op-ed), titled “Isolationism is the same as appeasement — and it’s keeping Trump, Netanyahu from transforming the Middle East,” does little more than launch ad hominem attacks and provide a masterclass in projection. It’s amazing to read sentences like these: “They’re too self-righteous in their ignorance to realize how absurd they sound. … In fact, they’re so blind and self-important that they don’t see the new foreign policy taking place in real time, right in front of their eyes!” and not even detect even a hint of self-awareness from a man who is advocating for the United States to become stuck in yet another Middle East quagmire.

Remember how all those other times our attempts to “transform” the Muslim world worked out so well?

Afraid that his readers won’t be convinced by merely insulting the intelligence of so-called “isolationists,” Levin tries to morally blackmail any potential skeptics by blowing the appeasement dog whistle as loudly as he can. “There’s nothing new or good about isolationism, which, in a word, is appeasement. It’s old and promotes war, such as World War II,” he writes bluntly.

Or, more specifically, enables barbarism to take hold. It's already happening in Africa, with Christian communities being slaughtered by jihadists, and all the while, Mr. Daniel and his ilk say nothing, and practically erase the existence of the victims of jihadism. Is that also what Daniel and company think following September 11, 2001 to boot?

What Mr. Daniel and company fail to understand is that refusing in any way, shape or form to convince the Islamic world to abandon adherence to the Religion of Peace is the reason for failure in the middle east. Not to mention failure to promote belief systems that emphasize vigilance against evil along with respect for human dignity and demand the inhabitants, especially leader figures, take them up and follow those instead? Unwillingness to firmly make such points is exactly why we still have the crisis of Islam on our hands. Daniel continues:

It seems like whenever very reasonable people object to yet another forever war, neocons crawl out of the woodwork to screech “appeasement!” to try to cow their foreign policy opponents into embarrassed silence. If you don’t agree with the neocons’ next regime-change project, you’re no better than British Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain, who meekly gave in to Adolf Hitler in 1938 and emboldened Nazi aggression — thereby unleashing all of the devastation that ravaged Europe. If you don’t believe in toppling tinpot dictator No. 12, installing an American puppet state, and sacrificing untold amounts of American blood and treasure, you, specifically, are setting the stage for another World War II, another Holocaust. At least, that’s the implication.

Notice that the columnist totally obscures another issue one could make a more valid case about - that Trump would make any kind of deal with Syria's new autocrat, al-Sharaa. Nobody on the left said anything about that, and the real neocons-in-negative-sense like Mr. Daniel haven't either. If he's a Christian adherent, he's sold out Syria's adherents as well. And then, Mr. Daniel has the shame to smear Levin as a neocon?!? I think Levin denied in subsequent TV broadcasts the whole notion he's a neocon, one more reason why Daniel practically owes an apology to Levin for this blatant attack on his belief that the USA cannot stand idly by while tyranny, nuclear, physical or otherwise, exists in any way. Perhaps the Federalist should be renamed the Defeatist if this is what they're going to embrace now, and even before this, there were some very fishy articles they published that obscured the topic of Islamofascism in France, in example, and even normalized it when talking about LGBT propaganda being shoved down everyone's throats. What good does that do? It will not change the viewpoint of Islamists regarding Jews one bit. Next thing you know, if neo-nazism had institutions in the USA, they'd whitewash such a movement if that's what it took to battle against LGBT ideology, and even communism would abruptly get a pass. The Federalist is really going to the dogs now.

On which note, Elle Purnell may have more restrained, but tragically, she too appears to be siding with the Tucker Carlson crowd, no matter how subtle she tries to be. And she says:

Insofar as Cruz and others who cite the Abrahamic covenant in foreign policy discussions are advocating for general goodwill and moral support toward Israel and against homicidal Iranian clerics, that’s not controversial among Christians. Nor is the fact that America and Israel’s relationship as strong political allies commands a certain level of support from the sidelines.

But it is something else entirely to insist that God’s promise to Abraham in the Old Testament requires the United States government to base its political decisions on the objectives of the 21st-century Israeli nation-state. Taken to extremes, that would mean the United States has an obligation to make foreign policy decisions, no matter how much they may contradict the interests of the United States, based on whether those decisions benefit the nation-state of Israel.

Here's the problem: she doesn't acknowledge that the Religion of Peace is a serious issue that can't be taken lightly or allowed to reign, even today, in countries like Saudi Arabia. Or, she doesn't acknowledge that the most vital reason to battle Iran is because such religiously-influenced barbarism cannot be ignored. It doesn't have to be based on biblical beliefs in order to make a point. Yet Purnell does little better than Daniel in addressing the topic. If you think Cruz's approach is flawed, that's one thing. But ignoring what the Religion of Peace is built upon does nothing to improve the argument, and is exactly why we're at this point in history now.

As it so happens, Melanie Phillips wrote about the troubles with neocons as described in this particular era, and even before, and how they're still a serious problem themselves:

Earlier this week, an out-and-out antisemite was revealed to be holding a senior position in the Pentagon.

In an exclusive story on JNS, Washington correspondent Andrew Bernard revealed that Col. Nathan McCormack, the Levant and Egypt branch chief at the Joint Chiefs of Staff’s J5 planning directorate, had referred publicly to Israel as a “death cult”.

In April, he suggested that the United States “might be Israel’s proxy and not realised it yet”.

In May, he wrote: “Netanyahu and his Judeo-supremacist cronies are determined to prolong the conflict for their own goals: either to remain in power or to annex the land.”

Within hours of the story appearing, McCormack was moved to another position while the Pentagon investigated. Questions may well be asked about how such an individual could be appointed to a senior defence post.

However, the main thrust of his noxious assertions has long been a widespread view in Western establishment circles and has even been legitimised in public debate. This is the belief that the Jews manipulate governments and drag them into foreign wars that serve Jewish interests at the expense of others losing their lives.

This is, of course, a classic blood libel that stretches back into antiquity. Today, it’s found on both the left and right.

“The US must make it clear that we will not be dragged into another Netanyahu war,” said Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), echoed by members of the progressive “Squad” in the US House of Representatives. Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.) said: “We cannot let [Israel’s prime minister] drag our country into a war with Iran.”

For his part, McCormack referenced the 2007 book by authors John Mearsheimer and Stephen Walt, The Israel Lobby and U.S. Foreign Policy, which accused the pro-Israel lobby in America of shaping its foreign policy to support Israel in ways that harmed the United States.

Although the Anti-Defamation League called the book “a classical conspiratorial antisemitic analysis invoking the canards of Jewish power and Jewish control,” the authors continued to be treated with respect in academic circles as “realists”.

The isolationism that gives rise to such views has a long lineage in America. It was in dismaying evidence during the 1930s and 1940s, when Nazism was plunging Europe into darkness.

Most notoriously, the celebrity aviator Charles Lindbergh announced at an America First rally in 1941 that the Jews were “pressing this country toward war” and trying to “force a free and independent people into war against its will”.

So back in WW2, a certain creep was employing the "America First" slogan for bad purposes. By contrast, Trump didn't do that when he argued in favor of putting the USA's internal concerns first. He just meant that security and business matters, along with local workers, are the ones that should matter. Trump's position in no way whatsoever made foreigners in distress out to look like their lives were worthless, in contrast to Lindbergh, who clearly didn't give a damn if Islam was leading to the deaths of innocent people in the middle east either. And lest we forget the National Socialists collaborated with the Religion of Peace decades before too.

Those who were against the US invasion of Iraq tendentiously blamed it on “the neocons”. This was code for “the Jews,” because a number of influential “neocon” analysts who supported the war happened to be Jewish.

The false claim that Israel had taken America to war in Iraq became a common meme on both sides of the Atlantic. In 2004, Thomas Friedman wrote that Ariel Sharon, then Israel’s prime minister, had President George W. Bush “under house arrest in the Oval Office”.

In London, a British colonel told me that “Ariel Sharon has his hand up Bush’s back” — and was astonished when I replied that Israel had told the United States it was Iran, not Iraq, that posed the greatest danger.

Well both Bush and Sharon turned out to be a very bad lot in their own ways, and took actions that got Israel to where it's at now. Let's not forget that. Neither one deserves any genuine awards like statues or institutions named after them, as a result. Neither did anything genuine to prevent Islamofascism from gaining more footholds, and thanks to that, this is exactly why we're now dealing with rocket attacks from Iran. Somehow, I doubt Sharon would give a damn, recalling he began his undeserved career as more of a leftist.

Anyway, the Federalist, much like other sites, has now published a report on the air strike the USAF conducted, and also noted:

Trump has long said Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon and has favored negotiation and peace talks between Iran and Israel. But Iran has been unwilling to engage in a discussion that would lead to dismantling its nuclear weapons program.

The United States is reportedly the only country with so-called bunker-buster bombs large enough to potentially penetrate Iran’s deeply buried nuclear sites and the aircraft capable of delivering those bombs. Bunker-busters were needed to destroy the Fordow nuclear site, which was tunneled deep under a mountain in Iran.

Note that their report appears neutral, which is probably what to expect now that their shoddy opposition to destroying Iran's nuclear labs has been mooted. But it doesn't mean they're reevaluating, and that's sad. Regarding the whole description of neocons, I thought years ago it alluded to possible liberals who became supporters of conservatism. And, it quite possibly did. But now, we have a new problem emerging with defeatists who're hijacking the very slogan for bad purposes, and then the Federalist makes things worse by lecturing us that figures like Levin are neocons?!? Well that just proves how mendacious the actual neocons in this particular case really are. First take a certain slang and sully it, then pretend it's the folks who want to defeat barbarism who're neocons instead. What's the world coming to?

I'll give the Federalist staff credit for once acknowledging in the past that the first leaders of the modern Israeli state were sadly communists who'd acted sadistically towards their conservative rivals. But these latest op-eds make clear the site's writers are deteriorating in terms of objectivity, and from what I've noticed, their comprehension of Islam is very unclear, if at all. That's why I can't support their site anymore on a regular basis, because they're not being sufficient realists.

USAF destroys 3 nuclear sites in Iran

It looks like Donald Trump followed through on serious action in the USA when it comes to Iran's nuclear sites, joining the Israeli military and taking out key targets in Iran:

US President Donald Trump confirmed overnight Sunday that the US Air Force carried out extensive strikes on three key nuclear facilities in Iran, marking a dramatic escalation in the Israel-Iran conflict and the first time since the 1979 Iranian Revolution that the US has attacked major military targets inside Iranian territory. The sites targeted were Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan.

"We have completed a very successful strike," Trump wrote on his social media platform, TruthSocial. "All aircraft returned safely. Now is the time for peace!"

According to reports, the US Air Force used GBU-57 bunker-buster bombs, each weighing 30,000 pounds (13,600 kg), capable of penetrating the mountain over the Fordow facility. The decision came after weeks of internal deliberations in Washington, during which Trump weighed giving diplomacy another chance. But with no sign of progress from Tehran, he opted for military action.

Senior Israeli officials believe the US has been preparing to join the wider campaign and had begun logistical preparations well in advance.

Just hours before the airstrikes, Steve Bannon, Trump's former adviser and a leading voice among isolationist conservatives who oppose foreign interventions, hinted at the looming operation on his podcast, saying: "The party's starting."

One must wonder: does this mean Bannon, who was taking up a negative position through isolationism, was coming around and accepting Trump's stance after all? Well, that's why it's good Trump approved of this mission, because these isolationists can't be allowed to impede upon efforts to defeat evil entities abroad.

On the other hand, Democrat Charles Schumer has voiced his opposition to Trump's mission:

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY), who once claimed to be Israel’s “guardian” in Congress, put out a statement late Saturday night opposing President Donald Trump’s airstrike on Iran’s nuclear sites.

After a delay of several hours, and long after his colleagues — Republican and Democratic — had reacted, Schumer issued a statement criticizing the attacks and backing legislation to limit Trump’s war powers.

The criticism from Schumer and other Democrats echoes their criticism of his successful airstrike on Iranian terror general Qasem Soleimani, when they again cited constitutional limitations on the commander-in-chief.

In reality, Trump’s actions are constitutional, provided that he complies with deadlines established by the existing War Powers Resolution of 1973, which allows the president to conduct war, provided that he report to Congress within 60 days. Few Democrats objected when President Barack Obama used his war powers — even in excess of those allowed by the War Powers Resolution, as Breitbart News has noted in the past:

So once again, Schumer's proven himself a most repellent person, who'd rather rag upon Republicans no matter the deed than prove he recognizes serious issues when he sees them. Nobody should associate with such a reprehensible man. Donald Trump is the winner today, and Schumer's the disgrace.

Update: defense secretary Pete Hegseth gave a press conference telling how Iran's nuclear power is over.

Jewish Republican in Ohio was run off road by another anti-Israel criminal

Ohio representative Max Miller was endangered by a creep who held a PLO flag:

A House Republican said on Thursday that he was “run off the road” in Ohio by a “deranged” man who displayed a Palestinian flag before leaving the scene.

Rep. Max Miller (R-OH), who is Jewish, spoke about his brush with “blatant antisemitic violence” in a post on X.

“The deranged hatred in this country has gotten out of control. Today I was run off the road in Rocky River, and the life of me and my family was threatened by a person who proceeded to show a Palestinian flag before taking off,” Miller said.

Miller noted that he filed a police report with the U.S. Capitol Police, as well as the local police department.

“We know who this person is and he will face justice,” Miller said. “As a Marine, a proud Jewish American and a staunch defender of Israel, I will not hide in the face of this blatant antisemitic violence.”

According to Fox News, the Rocky River Police Department confirmed the incident had been reported and said an investigation had been opened.

Read the rest. It's tragic that Donald Trump now has to deal with this kind of disaster left over from the Biden administration now sweeping the country, to the point where even Congress members are in danger. Miller's family, thankfully, was unharmed in any of this. But now there's another monster out there who must be captured by authorities and exiled from the USA eternally.

Iran commits war crime by firing missile at hospital

In what amounts to a serious war crime, Iran fired missiles that struck the Soroka hospital in Be'er Sheva:

A ballistic missile launched by Iran toward Israel early Thursday morning hit the Soroka Medical Center in the Negev desert city of Be’er Sheva in what Army Radio called a “direct hit,” with casualties yet unknown.

[...] Israel’s Army Radio confirmed the impacts and reported that there was extensive damage at the hospital, though it was not known if anyone had been wounded. Hospitals, like other large public buildings in Israel, are equipped with bomb shelters.

Soroka is an important hospital in southern Israel that serves a large Arab population as well as Jewish communities. It is also the only Level 1 trauma center in the region, making it even more important.

Soroka has been in the news recently because it is a hospital that receives freed Israeli hostages, and because it is the hospital that receives wounded Israeli soldiers from combat against Hamas inside the Gaza Strip.

[...] Firing at a hospital is a war crime. Israel has conducted military operations against hospitals in Gaza, but those have been commandeered by Hamas terrorists, which is itself a war crime, and also causes such facilities to lose their protected status under international law.

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) has been engaged in constant operations to destroy Iran’s missile launchers and its nuclear sites. Iran’s leaders had nevertheless been promising an aggressive attack against Israel.

After this horror, which many anti-Israeli governments and movements like won't condemn, the Israeli government is hopefully taking steps to really punish the monsters in Iran who are responsible for this. This is absolutely offensive.

Update: as Benjamin Netanyahu says, this is very serious and the ayatollah must pay for his crime.

Algerian Muslim interloper in France threatened underaged girl

The following horror left a family so traumatized they couldn't continue living in the same house anymore (via Front Page):

A French family has been left so traumatized by a home invasion and an attempted kidnapping of their 8-year-old daughter that they are selling their home and moving away.

In the harrowing case in Brétigny-sur-Orge, which occurred on April 21, an Algerian migrant conducted a home invasion of the family house armed with a pitchfork. Inside, he exposed his genitals to the family, demanded to leave with the small girl, and told the parents: “Give me the girl or I’ll kill you.”

The suspect, in his 20s and with multiple identities, was arrested on April 21, but his trial only started this week in Evry Criminal Court. A judge has ordered the trial postponed pending for a hearing from a psychiatric expert after the defendant claimed to “hear voices.” [...]

Given the man’s potential psychiatric evaluation, it is possible he will not serve any prison time. Many defendants in Europe realize that claiming psychiatric illness is the ticket to a more lenient sentence and the ability to avoid jail by being placed in a psychiatric institution.

Remix News has long documented instances of foreigners participating in home invasions across France, including raping the victims in numerous cases, and in others, even committing assaults and murders.

When psychological issues are allowed to sever to the fullest as a shield, it's abominable, especially when the judiciaries themselves turn out to be fully siding with the criminals. The judicial system in France and even Britain has been virtually destroyed by the way ideologues were shoehorned into jobs they don't deserve, and they, along with many other bad apples, owe families like these an apology.

EU was funding MB

Yehuda Balanga tells how the European Union has been funding the Muslim Brotherhood, and endangering the continent to sharia that way:

Europe is undergoing a profound transformation. In the name of liberalism, democracy, and human rights, the continent is on a path that could lead to a Euro-Islamic future.

Recent intelligence reports from Western agencies have raised alarms about the creeping Islamization of Europe, particularly in Germany, Austria, Belgium, Britain, France, the Netherlands, and Spain. This concern extends beyond demographic changes driven by migration that began in the 1960s. The reports highlight a subversive effort to infiltrate social and governmental institutions from within, with the ultimate goal of establishing Sharia-based governance.

The Muslim Brotherhood emerges as a central player in these reports, operating on both local and European levels. Under the guise of youth movements, social organizations, or welfare charities, the group projects a liberal image while advancing its Islamist agenda. Its strategy focuses on influencing Muslim communities, reshaping public consciousness, and gaining political legitimacy to push for legislative changes and special religious rights. Western intelligence agencies describe this approach as "bottom-up Islamization," a deliberate tactic to transform societies gradually.

Although the Muslim Brotherhood is not classified as a terrorist organization in Europe, security services in multiple countries closely monitor its activities, viewing it as an ideological and subversive threat to democratic order. [...]

Paradoxically, the Muslim Brotherhood exploits Western tools to achieve its objectives, even receiving funding from the European Union and Western governments. For instance, over the past decade, the EU has provided more than €40 million to Islamic Relief Worldwide, an organization allegedly tied to the Muslim Brotherhood. Despite presenting itself as a humanitarian charity, Islamic Relief Worldwide promotes extreme antisemitic, anti-Western, and homophobic views. In 2020, its deputy director, Tayeb Abdoun, was sacked after posting a Facebook image of a knife with a caption endorsing violence: "Lay the bodies of the Jews on the top of the mountains, so that no dog in Palestine must suffer hunger."

It's bad enough Qatar's been a major funder of this, but we mustn't overlook that the EU would willingly enable such abuse and horror, as did any western governments. This is horrific, and now, much of Europe has suffered horribly as a result of something that was surely planned for decades.

Colonel Richard Kemp says Israel is capable of destroying the Fordow nuclear center in Iran

Former UK military commander Richard Kemp was interviewed by Israel National News, and he spoke about the serious importance of defeating the nuclear laboratory in Iran's Fordow region:

Col. Kemp praised Israel's accomplishments in Iran since the operation began early Friday morning. "Israel has achieved strategically important success in a very short time. The elimination of so many members of Iran’s military hierarchy is a devastating blow that will leave the regime reeling. It will be very hard or impossible to replace their expertise any time soon. The same goes for the elimination of the nuclear scientists. It seems Israel has severely diminished offensive weapons capability, including knocking out at least one-third of its ballistic missile launchers. The Director General of the IAEA assesses all 15,000 centrifuges at Natanz have been severely damaged or destroyed in air strikes."

He believes that it was necessary for Israel to strike Iran's nuclear facilities when it did. "Before the war began, Israel had received intelligence confirming Iran had commenced weaponisation of highly enriched uranium, a new step. At the same time, the IAEA confirmed Iran had enough 60% enriched uranium for 10 or so bombs and that could be further enriched to weapons grade within 2 weeks. That made a military strike essential. Imagine if just one of Iran’s ballistic missiles that have been fired into Israel had a nuclear warhead. Potentially huge numbers killed. That’s why this operation was necessary, not just for Israel but for the region and the world. [...]

When asked about the Fordow nuclear facility, believed to be the most difficult of Iran's nuclear facilities to strike because of its location beneath a mountain, he responded that, "The Israeli National Security Adviser has said Fordow can be dealt with by Israel alone. As a minimum, Israel can inflict significant damage to this facility and perhaps knock it out completely using its own capabilities."

We must definitely hope it can be done. As Kemp also notes, Iran's totalitarian regime poses a threat to the rest of the world too, and in the past, they'd attacked targets in Argentina. This is exactly why it's time to bring down their regime, and if it takes a whole shipload of bunker buster bombs to destroy Fordow, so be it. Even that mountain region laboratory of death cannot be allowed to stand.

Tucker Carlson is an utter embarrassment

If there's any pseudo-conservative "reporter" who's causing more harm than good for Israel today, it's Tucker Carlson, who's opposed to Israel defending itself from Iran's missile attacks, which have already tragically caused several murders, and even Arabic residents of Israel were victims. Fortunately, Donald Trump did the right thing by taking issue with Carlson over his shoddy positions:

President Donald Trump spent part of his Monday trolling Tucker Carlson after the former Fox News host questioned the president’s handling of Iran and conflict in the Middle East.

Last week in a newsletter, Carlson accused Trump of being “complicit” in Israel’s strikes against Iran that sparked the current days-long exchange between the two Middle Eastern powers. The newsletter arrived in the inboxes of Carlson’s readers under the headline: “This Could Be the Final Newsletter Before All-Out War.”

“Earlier this week, unnamed Washington sources expressed concern over Israel’s ability to fend off Iran’s retaliation, which would inevitably lead to Benjamin Netanyahu ordering the American military to step in and fight on his country’s behalf,” Carlson wrote. “On Thursday, Iran’s president threatened to ‘destroy’ any country that eliminates his government’s nuclear facilities. Now, the world will learn what that looks like.”

Trump responded to Carlson’s criticisms while attending the Group of Seven Summit in Canada.

“Somebody please explain to kooky Tucker Carlson that, ‘IRAN CAN NOT HAVE A NUCLEAR WEAPON!’” Trump posted on Truth Social on Monday evening. [...]

Trump’s support for Israel and his Middle East policy appears to have alienated Carlson, as well as other isolationist-minded supporters. The comic Dave Smith recently called for Trump’s impeachment over the president’s handling of Iran.

See, this is a serious problem the USA regrettably has that was doubtless prevalent in some areas during WW2 - isolationists who don't want to quash tyranny and barbarism through the pathetic excuse that it's occurring outside the USA boundaries, and also because "their culture is different from ours". And then you wonder how these problems eventually end up affecting the USA in the end.

Jonathan Tobin, while very questionable in his conduct (he refused to defend Trump after he lost 2020's election to the awful Joe Biden) did address the topic in a way that's interesting:

Who is losing the most in the successful strikes on Iran by the Israeli Defense Forces? At the top of the list is, obviously, the Islamist regime itself. It has had its terrorist infrastructure in the form of the leadership of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, as well as what is left of its military, decapitated. And, of course, it has suffered significant damage to its nuclear facilities, in addition to its oil and gas industry, which is the foundation of the despotic government’s already-shaky economy.

We don’t know yet what this will mean for the future of the theocratic regime that has maintained power since it took over the country in 1979. And it’s still far from clear whether the credibility lost by the way that the Israeli Air Force has been able to operate with impunity, destroying the government’s assets and leaders, will be enough to shake off their tyrannical grip on a nation that desperately needs to replace them.

The other big loser in this struggle is a “woke right” faction of the conservative movement in the United States that opposes Israel and has been fervently opposed to any action to stop Iran from gaining nuclear weapons. More to the point, this rag-tag group of talk-show hosts, right-wing influencers and social-media gurus who can’t seem to mention Israel without betraying their antisemitic tendencies has lost President Donald Trump.

Or to be more precise, they never really had him.

The Tucker Carlson factor

The most prominent of these voices on the right is former Fox News host Tucker Carlson, whose shows and posts on the X platform reach many millions of people. As I’ve noted previously, Carlson is adamant about his distaste for Israel and his willingness to shill for the Iranian regime as well as its ally Qatar.

But he’s just the most well-known and loudest of a group of people who have utilized the Internet to create the impression that Trump’s voters share their views about foreign policy—most specifically, when it comes to Israel and Iran. What they have failed to understand is that their soft spot for Tehran—a government that has never wavered from its belief that America was the “Great Satan” with whom they were locked in perpetual conflict—had nothing to do with what Trump has dubbed his “America First” foreign policy.

As polls have consistently shown, Republicans and conservatives overwhelmingly support Israel, even as Democrats and the political left have abandoned it. Yet Carlson and his woke right acolytes, imitators and supporters are certain that Trump will lose his MAGA supporters if he continues to support Israel and doesn’t pursue a policy of appeasing Iran. However, as Trump said in an interview in The Atlantic, he’s the one who decides how to define “America First,” not Carlson and the trolls he platforms or plays to via the Internet.

People like Carlson have to be ostracized by the more sensible crowd, due to his defeatist positions. His anti-Israel positions are insufferable, and if this is the standing he's going to take, along with others of his shoddy ilk, then it's doubtful he wants to defeat the enemies already inside the USA's borders, like the Islamofascists in Michigan, and in New York. Carlson and even Smith are a very sorry case, and nobody should pay money to see the latter's entertainment programs if that's how he's going to go about his business either. So, there's one so-called "conservative" who doesn't deserve a showbiz audience. And as for Carlson, it's high time he retired.

A majority of the Israeli public supports Netanyahu's war management verses Iran

A new polling has found a majority supports Benjamin Netanyahu's efforts to bring down Iran's dictatorship:

The Israeli strikes against Iran's nuclear weapons program is receiving overwhelming public support, according to a new poll published Monday evening by Channel 14 following the recent strikes. The data shows that the public is giving Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu a particularly high rating for his management of the war thus far.

To the question: "What grade does Prime Minister Netanyahu deserve for his management of the war in Iran so far?"—61% answered "Excellent," 19% "Good," 8% "Not good," and 12% "Poor."

To the question: "Has your opinion of Prime Minister Netanyahu changed due to the war in Iran?"—59% said it had not changed, 37% said it had changed for the better, and 4% said it had changed for the worse.

To the question: "Should Israel work to topple the Iranian regime beyond targeting the nuclear program and missile infrastructure?"—75% answered "Yes," 16% "No," and 9% had no opinion.

The survey was conducted by Shlomo Filber for Channel 14 on June 16, 2025, based on a sample of 476 Israeli citizens, with a statistical margin of error of ±4.7% at a 95% level of confidence.

So far, at least a third of Iran's missile launchers have been destroyed, and it has lessened the barrages that were coming. We must hope all can be destroyed in order to stop the barrages from coming, and let's also hope government buildings in Iran can be brought down, since that can further cripple their ability to operate.

IDF destroys Iran's state propaganda broadcaster

The IDF's secured another significant punishment for Iran's totalitarians by destroying their state TV propaganda broadcasting station:

An Israeli airstrike hit the headquarters of the Iranian state broadcaster on Monday evening.

Minister of Defense Katz confirmed that the IDF has struck the "Iranian regime's propaganda and incitement broadcasting authority," after a widespread evacuation of the population.

"We will hit the Iranian dictator everywhere," Katz declared.

A short time earlier, the IDF issued a warning calling on residents of District Three in northern Tehran, where the headquarters are located.

The warning, which was written in Arabic and Farsi, stated: "In the coming hours, the IDF will operate in the area, in line with its actions in recent days across Tehran, to attack military facilities belonging to the Iranian regime."

In addition, a number of trucks containing missile launching devices were also destroyed. The Israeli military's done a good job bringing down some key enemy sources in Iran.

UK government admits connections between Pakistani Muslims and child rape gangs

After many years where the UK establishment tried to downplay and sweep under the rug the child rape gangs run by Pakistani Muslims in cities like Rotherham, now the government's admitting the ties the Religion of Peace has to this horrifying chapter in history:

Longstanding efforts by the legacy media and the political establishment to downplay the issue of ethnicity in the child rape grooming gang scandal have been overturned by a public inquiry from Baroness Casey of Blackstock, which found a direct tie between Pakistani men and the abuse of mostly young working class white girls.

A report from Dame Louise Casey has explicitly linked the grooming gang scourge to Pakistani-heritage men, whose crimes were “institutionally ignored for fear of racism”. The review also called for police in England to improve the collection of ethnicity data in child sexual exploitation cases.

Unveiling the findings of the report in the House of Commons on Monday, Home Secretary Yvette Cooper said the audit “identified clear evidence of over-representation among suspects of Asian and Pakistani-heritage men”, The Times of London reported. She further said that the report highlighted “examples of organisations avoiding the topic altogether for fear of appearing racist or raising community tensions.”

“The sexual exploitation of children by grooming gangs is one of the most horrific crimes. Children as young as ten, plied with drugs and alcohol, brutally raped by gangs of men, and disgracefully let down by the authorities who were mean to protect them and keep the safe,” Cooper said.

But even now, there's no guarantee this'll ever lead to serious justice. So far, there's no telling if they'll even exile Islamofacists from the UK. As a result, this isn't likely to produce satisfying results at all.

8 more people were murdered as a result of Iranian missile barrages

The most recent Iranian missile attack left 8 more people murdered, and devastated some buildings:

A massive Iranian ballistic missile barrage killed eight people and wounded 287 others early Monday morning as over 100 missiles slammed into central and northern Israel, marking the deadliest attack since Operation Rising Lion began on June 13.

The pre-dawn assault left buildings collapsed in major population centers, including Tel Aviv, Bnei Brak, Haifa, and Petah Tikva, with rescue operations continuing throughout the morning as authorities search for additional victims trapped in the rubble.

Home Front Command initially issued protective directives for southern regions and northern communities before expanding the alert to cover the entire country as the missile barrage intensified around 4:09 a.m.

The attack unfolded in waves, with the first missile impacts reported at 4:17 a.m. in various locations across central Israel. In Bnei Brak, three major structures – the Gesharim school, an eight-story residential building, and a synagogue – collapsed from direct hits.

An 80-year-old man was extracted without signs of life from the collapsed building in Bnei Brak, while emergency responders confirmed additional fatalities across multiple impact sites. Magen David Adom paramedic David Suysa, who treated victims at the Bnei Brak site, said, "When we conducted searches in the rubble together with additional Home Front Command personnel, we saw an 80-year-old man trapped and unconscious. We assisted in rescue operations, during medical examinations, we had to determine his death at the scene."

The Iranian missile strikes created complex emergency scenes across the Dan region, with massive fires erupting along entire streets in Tel Aviv where missiles struck between buildings. Emergency crews worked to extinguish fires and conduct search and rescue operations for trapped victims.

In Haifa, a direct hit on a building sparked active fires at the impact site, with reports of multiple casualties, and three people feared trapped in the rubble who have lost contact with rescue teams.

The casualty toll continued mounting throughout the morning as rescue operations progressed. Magen David Adom reported evacuating 95 victims from the overnight attacks, including 32 lightly wounded and four moderately wounded in Bnei Brak, along with one fatality.

This is naturally terrible, and condolences to the victims. On the subject of the buidlings in Bnei Brak that collapsed, for all we know, the local authorities who had those structures built may have relied upon Muslim construction workers of the sort spoken about here, and that could explain why those buildings collapsed so easily. So it remains to be seen, will they continue to employ Muslim construction workers any more than Israel's largest construction company?

USA military helps Israel intercept Iranian missiles

With Donald Trump in charge again, the USA military now provides warmly welcomed assistance to Israel's military that's seriously needed in combatting Iran's rocket fire:

American air defense systems and a Navy destroyer helped Israel shoot down incoming ballistic missiles Friday that Tehran launched in response to Israeli strikes on Iran’s nuclear facilities and top military leaders, U.S. officials said.

The U.S. has both ground-based Patriot missile defense systems and Terminal High Altitude Air Defense systems in the Middle East capable of intercepting ballistic missiles, which Iran fired in multiple barrages in retaliation for Israel’s initial attack.

A Navy destroyer in the eastern Mediterranean Sea also shot down Iranian missiles heading toward Israel, one official said.

The United States also is shifting military resources, including ships, in the Middle East in response to the strikes.

The Navy directed the destroyer USS Thomas Hudner, which is capable of defending against ballistic missiles, to begin sailing from the western Mediterranean Sea toward the eastern Mediterranean and has directed a second destroyer to begin moving forward so it can be available if requested by the White House, U.S. officials said.

American fighter jets also are patrolling the sky in the Middle East to protect personnel and installations, and air bases in the region are taking additional security precautions, the officials said.

This could also help explain why a rocket launch from Iran today was thankfully thwarted. Now, thankfully, unlike during the Gulf War when George Bush Sr. was president, the USA is helping Israel this time around. Many congratulations to Trump for this important assist.

Update: Scott Jennings says the USA should destroy a key nuclear facility at Fordow in Iran. And he's correct.

Iran launched 200 missiles, and caused damage, along with sadly 3 deaths

After Israel's military took out nuclear laboratories in Iran, the Islamic regime launched a barrage of missiles in revenge, and unfortunately caused casualties along with damage and destruction:

Three people were killed by missiles launched from Iran toward Israel since Friday night. On Saturday morning, a man and woman were pronounced dead after a missile struck a residential neighborhood in a central Israeli city.

Severe damage was caused to buildings and vehicles in the area. Twenty-seven others were injured and evacuated to nearby hospitals for treatment.

The mayor of the affected city told Kan Reshet Bet: "These are the most horrifying scenes I’ve ever seen. You have to see what’s happening here to understand why it’s so important to remain in protected spaces."

On Friday night, a 60-year-old woman was killed and 62 others injured when missiles fired from Iran struck multiple locations across the Gush Dan region. Among the wounded was a 65-year-old man in serious condition. The injured were transported to hospitals suffering from moderate to light wounds, as well as shock.

The missiles were aimed at both civilian and military targets. The Iranian Revolutionary Guards claimed responsibility for strikes on dozens of sites in Israel. Prime Minister Netanyahu is expected to hold a security assessment Saturday night with top defense officials and several ministers.

This is abominable, and explains perfectly why the IDF's operation has to be carried out to destroy Iran's arsenals.

Update: 4 women from the mainly Arabic neighborhood of Tamra were also murdered as a result of Iran's missile attacks. More information here, and also here.

Israeli military finally strikes Iran's nuclear facilities

Israel's air force has begun a serious operation to destroy Iran's nuclear sites:

On Thursday evening, the long-anticipated Israel strikes began, targeting the Islamic Republic of Iran’s nuclear sites and other key military facilities. The objective of Operation Strength of a Lion is to end the Iranian nuclear threat once and for all, as well as to destroy, as much as possible, the Islamic Republic’s ability to continue to wage war against the Jewish state via its proxies, Hamas, Hizballah, and the Houthis. The entire state of Israel was on emergency alert; the Israeli Home Front Command issued instructions to all Israeli citizens to comply with guidelines that would be issued as part of “preparations for a significant threat.”

Almost immediately after the air strikes began in Tehran, the propaganda war also entered a new phase. The Iranian military posted on X: “Remember, we didn’t initiate it.”

Ah, but it did. The Islamic Republic of Iran initiated this Israeli strike on Oct. 7, 2023, when Hamas operatives, funded and directed by the Islamic Republic of Iran, brutally tortured and murdered 1,200 Israelis. The Islamic Republic of Iran initiated this Israeli strike when its leaders regularly screamed “Death to Israel” (as well as “Death to America”) and repeatedly vowed to destroy Israel. As recently as May 17, the Islamic Republic’s Supreme Leader, the Ayatollah Khamenei, declared: “The Zionist regime, which is the dangerous and lethal cancerous tumor of this region, must undoubtedly be removed, and it will be.”

In fact, the Islamic Republic of Iran initiated it by regarding Israel as an enemy from its earliest days. The Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, who founded the Islamic Republic in 1979, replaced the Israeli embassy in Tehran with an embassy of “Palestine.” He decreed that the last Friday of the Muslim fasting-and-feasting month of Ramadan would henceforth be known as Al-Quds Day. Al-Quds is the name that modern-day Arabs and Muslims use for Jerusalem, and Al-Quds Day from its inception was the occasion for an orgy of hatred for Israel, jihadist saber rattling, and declarations that the Jewish state would soon be completely destroyed and a new genocide of the Jews would begin. [...]

The existence of Israel is an insult to Islam. The Qur’an tells Muslims: “Drive them out from where they drove you out.” (2:191). The Arab Higher Committee ordered the Arabs to flee the new Jewish state in 1948, as the Arab leaders were confident that they would soon destroy the new state, and then the Arabs would be able to go home. Instead, Israel won. Nevertheless, the imperative to “Drive them out from where they drove you out” still applies, for the land of Israel was once the property of the Ottoman Empire, and was ruled by Islamic law.

Extrapolating from Qur’an 2:191, it is a staple of Islamic doctrine that any land that was once under Sharia rule must be ruled by Muslims forever. The command to drive the non-Muslims out is considered to come from the supreme god himself; it is not to be ignored, and cannot be negotiated away. As soon as Iran became an Islamic Republic, it was therefore duty-bound to regard Israel as its mortal enemy. And it did so, with alacrity.

So yes, the Islamic Republic did indeed initiate this conflict. If it didn’t pursue Israel’s destruction so relentlessly, the Israelis would have no quarrel with Iran. But Israel is determined to survive, and so it struck Iran on Thursday.

Well, Israel should be outraged even when non-Jews/Israelis are victims of the Religion of Peace. Because regardless of where it begins, Israelis will be victimized sooner or later as well, and that's tragically and horrifyingly what happened on October 7, 2023. That Iran's been ruled by sharia for over 4 decades is also throughly wrong, morally or otherwise.

The current strike has thus far yielded important results:

Iran’s state-run Islamic Republic News Agency (IRNA) confirmed in the early hours of Friday morning local time that Israeli airstrikes on targets in the country eliminated Major General Hossein Salami, the commander of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC).

Other arms of Iran’s state news apparatus confirmed several other high-profile regime members, including two nuclear scientists, were killed in the strikes. While unverified reports suggested that Salami may be far from the only high-ranking Iranian regime official to have been targeted successfully in the operation, he is the only one whose death the Iranian government has confirmed at press time.

Salami has sustained a place as one of the most prominent and belligerent senior leaders in the Iranian Islamist regime, regularly threatening attacks on America and Israel. In what was perhaps his final public appearance on Thursday, Salami declared that his forces were “war-tested and experienced,” prepared for war against its enemies.

The IRGC is both a U.S.-designated terrorist organization and a formal wing of the Iranian Armed Forces. Among its chief operations is to sustain relations between the Iranian terror state and its jihadist proxies, such as the Houthis in Yemen and Lebanese Hezbollah, and with fellow rogue states such as Venezuela and Cuba. [...]

Another Iranian state media outlet, PressTV, reported early Friday that the strikes had “martyred … several other senior IRGC commanders and nuclear scientists. [...]

The Times of Israel, citing Iranian state television, reported that Israel apparently also bombed one of the most prominent uranium enrichment facilities in the country, the Natanz facility, several times. Scattered but anonymous reports about potential disruptions in Iran by undercover Mossad agents have also surfaced, though Israel has not confirmed them.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu confirmed the airstrikes during a national address on Friday morning, identifying the strikes as “Operation Rising Lion.”

“This operation will continue for as many days as it takes,” he asserted, stating that Iranian officials were actively taking steps to “weaponize” its enriched uranium stockpile, calling Tehran a “clear and present danger to Israel’s survival.”

“We are defending the free world from the terrorism and barbarism that Iran fosters and exports across the globe,” Netanyahu continued. “Many around the world — even if they won’t say so openly — know in their hearts: thanks to your determination and courage, citizens of Israel, and thanks to the bravery of Israel’s fighters, the world will be a safer place.”

Salami was one of the most powerful people in Iran and a top military leader; his loss will significantly damage Iran’s military operations. The general regularly threatened to attack neighboring Israel and celebrated the deadly activities of Iranian proxies such as Hamas, whose brutal terror spree against Israel on October 7, 2023, prompted Israel to declare war against Hamas in its enclave in Gaza.

No doubt, those nuclear sites contain plenty of radiation, and the explosions at Natanz could make it uninhabitable for a while. And the jihadist general can roast in hell for his crimes. Let's hope the IDF will bring about more impressive results in the war against Iran and its proxies now.

Update: here's some Daily Wire live updates.

Left-wing enables riots against ICE operations in blue cities in USA

Donald Trump's government has been making efforts to clear away illegal immigrants around the USA, and in California, no less, not only did riots occur, the leftists running the store took a lenient approach to them, even as vandalism and looting went berserk around Los Angeles, which just recently suffered from massive wildfire destruction:

The anti-ICE protesters in Los Angeles blocked the heavily trafficked 101 Freeway again on Tuesday, causing a massive pile-up while waving foreign flags.

The blockage occurred late Tuesday afternoon during rush hour traffic when many Los Angeles residents are traveling home from work. Viral videos show the protesters openly walking on the highway as honks resound from the massive pile-up of cars. While only a few American flags were present, a majority of protesters were seen waving the national flag of Mexico.

According to ABC7, the California Highway Patrol (CHP) had blocked the freeway entrances, but the protesters managed to get onto the highway through a hole in the fence. Officers later descended on the scene and arrested protesters who refused to disperse, while others were pushed back.

It's very sad in the sense that it demonstrates how the left is abandoning law enforcement for the sake of all the bad ideologies they've long come to embrace. Making matters worse, some Hollywood "celebrities" like Jimmy Kimmel and Kim Kardashian are acting as apologists for the monsters at the expense of law enforcement officials and innocent citizens as well. It's no wonder Hollywood is such a mess, just as much as the rest of California. All this is exactly why these interloping monsters must be expelled from the USA.

Muslim employees at Israeli construction company caused damage and sabotage

The CEO of one of Israel's biggest construction companies explains why they no longer employ Arabs/Muslims identifying as palestinians:

Yigal Dimri, controlling shareholder and CEO of YH Dimri Construction and Development (TASE: DIMRI), the largest listed construction company in Israel, continues to oppose the employment of Palestinians in Israel, which was halted by the state at the outbreak of the Swords of Iron war. At a recent real estate conference, Dimri said that in his opinion the Palestinians should not return to working on building sites in Israel. In a call with investors on the release of YH Dimri’s first quarter financials, he expressed himself even more strongly on the matter.

Dimri said that his company had for several years tried to reduce its Palestinian workforce. "We succeeded in doing so, and we hardly employ any Palestinians, they’re all workers from overseas. There was a problem with the sub-contractors, but they too are gradually overcoming it.

"We should try not to be dependent on the Palestinians," Dimri continued, and confided details probably heard for the first time from the owner of such a large construction company. "When we worked with the Palestinians, there were very many instances of sabotage in many projects. There’s no getting away from it, they don’t like us, and when a Palestinian works for you, he sabotages you.

But the drawback is that the guy fails to acknowledge the Religion of Peace's role in influencing the mindsets of the "employees" and whoever commands them from within their sharia-governed enclaves. Do they truly expect to solve a worldwide epidemic of barbarism and even stealth attacks if the business managers won't stress the deeper issues involved? I congratulate the CEO of the construction company for now avoiding employment of products of an Islamic-led community, but even so, if they really want to improve the situation, they have to get at the deeper issues, plain and simple. And they also have to acknowledge that "palestinians" is a modern fabrication for undermining Israel. When will these business managers learn?

Islam increases its percentage of global population

According to a Pew Research study, the darkest religion on earth reportedly accounts for 25.6 percent of the global population, while Christianity declines:

Islam is growing faster than any other religion in the world, according to a new study.

Muslims now make up 25.6 per cent of the global population, while Christians make up 28.8 per cent, the report - which was released by the Pew Research Center on Monday - says.

But the growth of Christianity has not kept up with the global population increase, with the religion's worldwide share slipping by 1.8 per cent.

This fall-off is largely driven by disaffiliation, as well as aging populations and lower fertility rates.

The Muslim population's share, on the other hand, increased by 1.8 per cent.

Researchers said reasons for this growth was likely due to Islam's younger population and higher birthrates in some areas.

Commenting on the trend, lead author of the Pew report, Conrad Hackett, said: 'It's just striking that there was such dramatic change in a 10-year period. 'During this time, the Muslim and Christian populations grew closer in size. Muslims grew faster than any other religion.'

And all because of the leftist facilitation and enablement for this to tragically happen. Read the rest, and also note how Judaism's said to be losing some adherents, no dount the result of more leftism in motion. Why, who knows how many former Judaists converted to Islam? It's sadly not impossible, and all that aside, news like this makes me even angrier still that ultra-Orthodox would push their belief system upon the public in a 5th-column manner, since that's doubtless alienated many potential adherents. Let's be clear. The whole notion singing and dancing, for example, are literally incompatible with Judaism in any way is complete garbage, and the Haredis cannot be allowed to continue determining whether women are allowed to sing or not, nor how they're allowed to dress. And a family friend once noted that a serious rabbi doesn't impose dress codes, as I may have mentioned before. After October 7, 2023, it's to be hoped more will recognize why such extreme stringencies cannot continue to be taught, period. Reevaluating can also help build confidence in people outside of Israel to consider converting to Judaism by moving away from any ludicrous "customs".

And all that aside, it's to be hoped that all concerned about Islamofascism will take note of this study, because it most definitely is worrisome.

What will Greta Thunberg think after watching footage of October 7, 2023 Hamas bloodbath?

The far-left climate activist Thunberg was arrested by Israeli authorities after taking control of a flotilla she was on heading for Gaza, and they ideally saw to it she and her fellow passengers would watch footage of the horror that took place on October 7, 2023:

Israeli forces seized a yacht bound for Gaza on Monday and forced its crew of pro-Hamas activists, including former teen climate crusader Greta Thunberg, to watch footage of the October 7 massacre while they were in detention.

Thunberg and her crew were headed for Gaza aboard a boat named Madleen, memorably dubbed the “selfie yacht” by the deeply unimpressed Israeli Foreign Ministry.

Israeli government spokesman David Mencer said the boat carried a “meager cargo” of goods, as a pretext for billing itself as a humanitarian aid mission. Mencer said the cargo would be sent to Gaza, while the grandstanding activists would be sent home.

“There are ways to deliver aid to the Gaza Strip. They do not involve Instagram selfies. The tiny amount of aid that was on the yacht and not consumed by the ‘celebrities’ will be transferred to Gaza through real humanitarian channels,” he said.

“To poor Greta, we say, who is really feeding Gaza, and who is feeding their own ego. When it comes to this flotilla, it wasn’t a flotilla, it was a selfie yacht. It was Instagram activism,” Mencer said.

“They were provided with sandwiches and water. The show is over,” he said.

It'll remain to be seen if she and her fellow passengers will recognize the scenes as repulsive, or if they're desensitized to violence, one of the saddest problems of the modern world. One of the passengers was a performer on Game of Thrones, and given how violent that TV show is, we can only wonder how he'll react.
