Pro-Palestinian Radicals Target Symbols
of Christianity

Radical pro-Palestinian demonstrations appear to have developed a new tactic: they are targeting Christmas tree lightings across the country, and other Christian symbols, in addition to symbols of Israel and Jewish institutions. The latest example was Friday’s protest in Los Angeles, where pro-Palestinian radicals marched from a fundraiser for President Joe Biden to an area where there are several synagogues. They sprayed anti-Israel graffiti on the walls opposite the synagogues, and also vandalized a local church. Prior to that, pro-Palestinian activists disrupted the Christmas tree lighting at Rockefeller Center in New York City, clashing with police.

about time for a re-emergence of the Spanish Inquisition, to eliminate those who profess violence against the Holy Roman Catholic Church

Ultimately it is the West and Western culture that is their real target. Why is it taking so long to admit it?

People conveniently forget that the anti-Israel muslim sympathizers are also anti-Christian, as it has been since the Sixth Century. It worked with the BLM and Antifa movements, drop a few of them with real bullets and the bravado is crushed as they scurry back into the basement.

Islam by its very nature is at perpetual war with every other faith or non-Islamic belief. Hamas is simply that part of Islam which like Iran, Hezbollah, ISIS, and the Taliban, is more 'faithful' to Mohammed and the Koran. Baby Bush and his 'religion of peace' description was political speak for 'bullcrap'.

#1, the mission of the Spanish Inquisition was to root out heresy, point out to people the error of their ways and purify them by immolation (burning) is they did not recant. Since the Spanish had no separation of Church and State, the State had no problem taking out those who professed violence against the Church, unlike the police mentioned by #8.

Lawsuits Against Trump Are So Transparently
Political They're Backfiring Badly With Democrats

It turns out that the American people know a scam when they see one — even Democrats. A new I&I/TIPP poll shows indisputably that the lawsuits against Trump are beginning to boomerang in the minds of Democrats. Indeed, they're not buying the BS that Donald Trump is a "THREAT TO DEMOCRACY!!!!!!" Donald Trump is currently indicted on 91 obviously orchestrated felony counts, as well as other lawsuits in multiple venues around the U.S. There's the indictment about legally held documents at Mar-a-Lago, there's the one about "inciting" an insurrection, and there's the fraudulent civil lawsuit in New York on which the judge has already ruled the former president is guilty

The Associated Press (AP) on Sunday denounced the “shocking level of censorship” imposed by the United Arab Emirates (UAE) on the COP28 climate change conference in Dubai. The AP was mortified by “sharp restrictions on what demonstrators could say, where they could walk and what their signs could portray.” “At times, the controls bordered on the absurd,” the AP said, pointing to a rule that prevented demonstrators from waving signs with the names of detained activists, a 500-strong pro-Palestinian protest group that was prevented from leaving the U.N.’s “Blue Zone” in Dubai, and a ban on the genocidal Palestinian slogan “from the river to the sea.”

He says hundreds of Hamas operatives have surrendered to Israeli troops in recent days, which he says “shows what is happening” to the terror group. “Whoever surrenders — his life is spared,” Gallant says, adding that among those who have been arrested by the IDF are terrorists who participated

President Biden's handling of the Israel-Hamas war continues to be met with majority disapproval as relatively few Americans think his administration's actions are bringing things closer to a peaceful resolution, and a rising number of Democrats feel he's showing too much support for Israel. As for Mr. Biden's approach toward any pro-Palestinian protests that take place in the U.S., most would favor no comment, and then there are relatively more who'd like him to condemn those than support them. Republicans, in particular, are the ones most looking for condemnation. (That said, it isn't impacting Mr. Biden's overall approval rating, which is generally holding steady and is at 41%,

A majority of Americans back Israel's war on Hamas, according to a Wall Street Journal poll conducted earlier this month. Fifty-five percent of 1,500 respondents said that Israel was taking necessary military action against Hamas, while 25 percent said the Jewish state's response "is disproportionate and going too far" in response to the terror group's Oct. 7 attacks, the poll found. The margin of error was 2.5 percent. A plurality of respondents, 42 percent, reported sympathizing more with the Israeli people than the Palestinian people, while 33 percent sympathized equally with both groups, and 12 percent sympathized more with Palestinians. Republicans were far more

A Texas woman who sued the state to get an abortion for her high-risk pregnancy has left the state to have the procedure, her lawyers have said. Kate Cox, 31, sought an abortion after her foetus was diagnosed with trisomy 18, a potentially fatal condition that doctors said threatened her fertility. A lower court granted permission for an abortion, but the Texas Supreme Court put that decision on hold on Friday. Texas has one of the strictest abortion bans in the country. Abortions in the state are prohibited from the point of conception except in rare cases where the life of the expectant mother is under threat.

The panel–which decided 3-0 to uphold the injunctions in the consolidated cases–was comprised of George H. W. Bush appointee Dennis Jacobs, Bill Clinton appointee Gerard E.

For the first time in decades, Argentina is no longer ruled by socialists. Libertarian-leaning President Javier Milei was officially sworn in on Sunday, marking a major turning point in the country's battle against hyperinflation and economic decline. In November, Argentina reached 183 percent inflation for 2023, impoverishing around 40 percent of the country, a reality that helped sweep Milei into power. Now, he's taking action, with his first move in office being an executive order that slashes the number of government ministries from 21 to nine. Among those put on the chopping block was the ministry of "women, genders, and diversity,"

Following precise IDF and ISA intelligence, the IAF killed the new commander of Hamas’ Shuja'iyya Battalion, Emad Krikae. The previous commander of the Hamas battalion had already been killed by the IDF earlier in the war. Since 2019, Krikae had been the Deputy Commander of Hamas’ Shuja'iyya Battalion. He was previously responsible for anti-tank missile training in the Gaza City Brigade. Kirikae was also part of anti-tank missile fire and terrorist raids carried out inside Israeli territory. Following the elimination of the commander of Hamas’ Shuja'iyya Battalion during the war, Krikae temporarily assumed the position of battalion commander before also being killed by the IDF.

After the past week's Congressional hearings, the presidents of Harvard University, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and the University of Pennsylvania are being exposed to an amount of publicity and scrutiny they're not used to and likely wish would go away. As we reported, the trio claimed that calls for genocide against Jews needed to be placed into context before deciding whether they violated student codes of conduct. The backlash was swift, and so was the backpedaling. UPenn's Liz Magill wasn't able to keep her job, though, and Harvard's Claudine Gay might not be far behind.

The Biden administration made two virtue-signaling proclamations at last week’s COP28 conference in Dubai it says will help save the planet from climate change. The policies aren’t likely to change the planet’s temperature by even one-tenth of a degree, but they might just destroy the 21st-century American industrial economy as we know it. First, Team Biden announced it will stop production of all new coal plants in the United States. This comes on the heels of President Biden’s Environmental Protection Agency saying this year it would impose new power-plant emission regulations that are virtually impossible for coal plants to comply with. The bottom line: no more coal. Period.
