The India-born author who had an Islamic fatwa placed upon his head by the Iranian ayatollah Khomeini in 1988 after writing the Satanic Verses was stabbed 15 times while preparing to give a speech at an institution in New York (via Geller Report):

Salman Rushdie is on a ventilator, cannot speak, and will likely lose an eye, after being stabbed up to 15 times on Friday by a suspect police have identified as a man from New Jersey ‘with sympathies toward the Iranian government.’

Authorities descended on the Fairview, New Jersey home of 24-year-old Hadi Matar hours after he allegedly attacked Rushdie onstage at a literary event in upstate New York.

The bloodied Rushdie, 75, who has been the subject of death threats from the Iranian regime since 1989, was airlifted to the hospital and his condition was updated by his agent Andrew Wylie shortly before 7 p.m.

‘The news is not good,’ Wylie said in a statement. ‘Salman will likely lose one eye; the nerves in his arm were severed; and his liver was stabbed and damaged.’

Rushdie was attacked and stabbed multiple times, including in the neck and abdomen, as he was being introduced for the CHQ 2022 event in Chautauqua, near Buffalo, on Friday morning.

Matar, who police say gained access to the grounds with a pass, managed to walk off the stage before being restrained, as people rushed to assist Rushdie.

Law enforcement sources told The New York Post that an initial investigation suggests Matar is sympathetic to the Iranian regime and the Islamic Revolutionary Guard, although he was born around nine years after the fatwa against Rushdie was first issued.

Event moderator Henry Reese, 73, a co-founder of an organization that offers residencies to writers facing persecution, was also attacked. He and Rushdie were due to discuss the United States as a refuge for writers and other artists in exile.

What's decidedly telling is that no security check was made to see if the jihadist carried any weapons. This tragedy also occurred within a Democrat-run state, which could suggest why it was possible for the culprit to gain access so easily. Something tells me that in Britain, it wouldn't have been as easy.

So far, Rushdie is still alive (also via Geller Report). But for all we know, things could turn much more sour any moment, as a terrible incident that could've been prevented tragically took place.

The former USA ambassador to Israel gave his backing to Zeldin for running in New York's election for governor:

Philanthropist and businessman Ben Landa hosted an event in support of Lee Zeldin, the Jewish Congressman who is running for Governor of New York.

The gathering was attended by Former US Ambassador to Israel David Friedman, who said in support of Lee Zeldin that "it's now or never”.

He's absolutely right. The Democrats have absolutely demolished New York state, and that's got to change. But it'll only happen if Zeldin is elected, and he'll hopefully follow through if he does.

After Israel defended itself against the Islamic Jihad in Gaza, the UN's held yet another attack on the Israel:

Israel came under fire once again at the United Nations, this time for defending itself against Iran-backed terrorists in Gaza who fired 1100 rockets into the country over the weekend.

An emergency Security Council session was called at the behest of Norway and Ireland in the wake of the 66-hour escalation between Israel and Gaza.

Which basically demonstrates how these 2 countries still maintain a most anti-Israeli position of their own.

Israel’s U.N. ambassador Gilad Erdan censured both countries ahead of the meeting.

“How would Norway react to Islamists plotting to fire missiles at civilians in Oslo? How would Ireland react if Jihadi rocketeers were raining down on Dublin in an effort to wipe out the ‘infidel?” he asked.

“The Palestinian (Islamic) Jihad deliberately fired eleven-hundred rockets at Israelis civilians, with roughly two-hundred landing inside the Gaza Strip, killing innocent Palestinians and among them young children.”

“The Palestinian Islamic Jihad is a radical terror organization, armed, funded and trained by Iran,” he added.

And Iran's tragically a member of the UN's "human rights council". It's truly despicable.

The former health minister from the Haredi-led UTJ party has been given a prison sentence of 8 months for serious crimes he committed:

Former lawmaker Yaakov Litzman of the ultra-Orthodox United Torah Judaism party was convicted Monday of breach of public trust and sentenced to eight months in jail as well as a fine of roughly $900.

[...] Litzman was suspected of using his position to influence the examination of Leifer's fitness to stand trial or be extradited on mental grounds. Leifer – a former ultra-Orthodox headmistress – faced 74 separate charges of child sexual abuse, and was eventually deported to Australia in January 2021, following a 13-year-long legal battle.

Litzman also reportedly attempted to prevent the closure of a food establishment that he frequently visited during his time as health minister. As part of the plea deal, the deli case was closed.

It's not enough of a sentence he got, and shameful a plea deal had to be made at all. Yet not all that surprising when you consider the times corrupt Haredi officials, along with other left-wing protected classes, get off easy. He reportedly won't be returning to politics. Let's hope not. What he did was offensive and sickening, did a terrible disservice to the overall reputation of Haredis, and he never deserved to be in politics to begin with.

Phyllis Chesler recently spoke about the terrible history of rape victims being scapegoated for acting in self-defense against their male attackers, and why this has to change:

Does a woman have the right to kill a man in self-defense? Even if he is her husband? Or her father? What if he is “merely” a rapist or someone who enables a rape to take place? What about a man who enables many rapes to take place—rapes for which he receives money, rapes which he videos?

Despite progress in states like Wisconsin, the answer is, overwhelmingly, 'No.' A mere woman does not have this right.

For nearly two hundred years, women in the United States have been attempting to argue in court that their use of force, sometimes deadly force, against their rapists, abusers, and Johns is self-defense. Mostly, their pleas have been ignored.

The world still cares more about what happens to men than whatever happens to women. We get to hear much more about male prisoners than we ever do about female prisoners. Women’s lives are so little valued that we still receive life sentences for daring to defend our own lives from male batterers, rapists, and traffickers.

In a sense, such killings in self-defense are treated as if they are regicides or patricides and deserving of maximum, even life, sentences. This harsh and heartbreaking reality is true for all women, no matter our color, but it may be even more true when the woman is African- or Hispanic-or Asian-or Indian-American and the man she’s killed, even in self-defense, is white.

No doubt, discrimination against women of color who act in self-defense is still prevalent today, and that's got to cease. Read more about this sad history, which is prevalent even in Europe.

Eileen Toplansky points out how all the horrific surgery conducted of recent for transsexuality is basically the same as Female Genital Mutilation, and the left's way of getting around the ban on the latter practice. It's also led to considerable ruination of many lives:

Walt Heyer knows firsthand what it’s like to undergo sex change surgery and then regret it. After living as a woman for nearly a decade, he decided to accept his biological sex and de-transition back to male. He had eagerly taken the bait of politicized medical practitioners, who hurried him along in the transition.

He not only regretted what he had done to his body, he also grieved over the estrangement from his wife and children caused by his drastic change in identity. Heyer’s . . . newest book, “Trans Life Survivors,” is . . . a compilation of the stories of many others caught up in today’s ‘transmania.’ Some are nudged into transgenderism by social pressures and emotional manipulation. Many are hastily sent into surgery without adequate counseling (or any counseling at all) or are misdiagnosed. Some of those regret their decision very shortly after having irreversible surgery.

This is stuff that's predictably concealed by the far-left media from the public. Of course, based on the following revelation from Pennsylvania, it should be no shock that such a modern day tragedy could occur:

Yesterday, I came across a video taken just a few days back at the Central Pennsylvania Pride Event. It featured a young boy, wearing a colorful tulle skirt, fumbling around a stripper pole while a gay man in underwear instructs him on the erotic dance form — as his mother cheers them on.

Tears of rage filled my eyes. I couldn't help but wonder what the grown man was thinking as he gawked at that precious little boy, or how a mother could hand over her own son to pedophilic exploitation — her one job above all is to keep him safe in every way, but instead she acquiesces to his abuse. Easily detected by any viewer is this innocent child's desire for love and praise — something that should be given so unconditionally — that he has to earn through sexual performances in front of grown men.

This is just one of many examples depicting the rapid rate at which a culture can descend into depravity when there is no steadying anchor. Emotions aside, it is the nature of the LGBT Agenda beast — giving in to perversion reaps more perversion.

A very valid point's made here: it's not just the bad influence of activists that's led to all this. Even the "parents" of these children have to shoulder the blame for selling out their children to the exploiters and desecrators. And of course, law enforcement, for refusing to protect the children either.

The Iran-backed Islamic Jihad organization has once again launched attacks on Israel, leading to an alarm situation (via Geller Report):

Sirens blared in Tel Aviv on Saturday evening as the IDF continues Operation Breaking Dawn against Palestinian Islamic Jihad in the Gaza Strip as more than 350 rockets were launched toward Israel in the first full day of fighting between the two groups.

The first rockets were fired toward Israel shortly before 9 p.m. on Friday night, with sirens blaring in southern Israeli communities near the border as well as Sderot, Ashkelon, Ashdod, and Yavne. Sirens were also activated in the central Israeli cities of Rishon Lezion, Holon and Bat Yam but the IDF later said that the sirens were a false alarm.

The whole regime should've been taken down long ago, yet here we are with a situation where these jihadists can still cause death and destruction to Israel and its society. This is, quite simply, a colossal embarrassment.

In an absolutely unsurprising example (via Jihad Watch), the PLO's overlords have voiced their support for commie China:

The Palestinian Authority (PA) on Tuesday declared its full support for the People’s Republic of China amid renewed tensions between Beijing and Washington, DC, over the visit of US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi to Taiwan.

In a statement carried by the official PA news agency WAFA, the PA “affirmed its position supporting the sovereignty, territorial integrity and the unity of the People’s Republic of China.” It stated that the Palestinians held to a “longstanding position supporting the friendly People’s Republic of China and its sovereignty, territorial integrity and fully respecting the One China Policy principle.”…

What's telling here is that the PLO is by extension condoning China's threat to Taiwan. Also most eyebrow raising:

The Palestinian leadership has responded in kind, including by declaring its support for Beijing’s repression of the Uyghur Muslim minority in the north-western region of Xinjiang, which many states and human rights organizations have termed a genocide. In July 2019, the PA added its signature to a letter that lavishly praised the Chinese regime for its “remarkable achievements in protecting and promoting human rights through development,” going on to assert that democratic states should “refrain from employing unfounded charges against China” by approaching the Uyghur human rights emergency “in an objective and impartial manner … with true and genuinely credible information.” Other states to endorse the letter included Venezuela, Iran, Cuba and Syria.…

What's telling about this is that, despite being a Muslim community themselves, and potentially dangerous in that regard, the PLO's still willing to throw other Muslims under the bus, much in the same way there's Muslim countries turning against other Muslim countries over past centuries. One can only wonder if it's because the PLO's overlords consider the Uyghers inferior based on their not being caucasian/white. That basically sums up another disturbing thing about how various Islamofascists think.
