The US has issued a draft resolution to the United Nations Security Council calling for the immediate cease-fire between Israel and Hamas that would be connected to the release of hostages, Secretary of State Antony Blinken announced Wednesday evening. “We’re pressing for an immediate ceasefire tied to the release of hostages. That would bring immediate relief to so many people who are suffering in Gaza – the children, the women, the men,” Blinken told Saudi media outlet Al Hadath.

Not the release of "all the hostages." Just "hostages." And how many Palestinian prisoners (not hostages) will be released? Hundreds? Thousands? And who in Gaza will be receiving and distributing the relief supplies -- Hamas? What other concessions will be made to benefit Hamas?

Wanna bet Blinken has "From the River to the Sea" tattooed on his Ass? Since a cease fire with out Annihilation of HAMAS will assure that, He must have that as his priority. G_d Damn his evil soul!

Whatever happened to the notion that we should NOT forcibly be meddling in other Countries right to self-determination? If other's would like to join the U.S. in agreements, that is THEIR business. This idea that we should be involved in "nation building" by interfering in Israel's business to protect Hamas by encoraging the OVERTHROW of the Netanyahu government is certainly in violation of the notion that Israel and an independent nation should decide for itself what and how to respond. It is true that NOT ALL persons living in Gaza are radical extremeist jihadis-- most just want to peacefully be left alone to live their lives with their familes. It is also true that much of the foreign aid that has been given has been diverted to the gangs and militia whose sold purpos is to destroy Isreal-- their own citizens who are not in that faction be damned. Not exactly the same but with similarities is that when private money is raised to help others after disasters or famines, efforts like the "We are the World" funds, or Tsunami relief, etc. are often DIVERTED to political causes instead of humanitarian ones through corrupt parties and politicians. This Natanyahu quote come so mind more profoundly now than ever: "The truth is that if Israel were to put down its arms there would be no more Israel.If the Arabs were to put down their arms ther would be no more war." So many people just want to live and let wive without the fear of war, but those militant waring gangs and militia member of groups that hate Israel will never stop unless totally eradicated so their civilian citizens weill not be drawn into the terrorism of war, Pray that peace will come soon. Vegetable and Blinky be damned.

The UN is anti-Israel as is Joe Biden. They are pushing a cease fire because Israel is doing the one thing that will actually ensure the safety of its citizens. They are bringing retribution down on the heads of the terrorists who committed unbelievable atrocities against their citizens, Regardless of what any cease fire says, terrorist organizations will ultimately do whatever they want. They have even stated that a cease fire will be of no regard for them. They have one agenda, kill every Israeli in the most horrific way and then take their land which will be quickly returned to the barren wasteland that it was before Israel made it beautiful and productive. Muslims are not about improving the lives of their people. It’s always about Jihad. Hamas and other terrorist groups hate that Israel worships the true and living God. The Jewish people are an affront to their religion which teaches violence is the pathway to eternal life for them. They don’t want peace and the UN and Biden are advocating for more terror which is exactly what they will get with a cease fire. It’s time Israel protected Israel and stopped listening to outsiders.

In case you're wondering, this is the Military Industrial complex trying to secure their customer base. There was an old story, where an eager young policeman was meticulous in ferreting out criminals. His superior told him to chill, because if he caught all the criminals, or chased them off, they wouldn't have job security as policemen. Military Industrial Complex (MIC) works like that. It's why, since WWII, no war has been "won". MIC doesn't want to lose its customer base for sellinh new weapons. A total victory might put them out of business.

No. All sections of gaza should be cleared of terrorists before the shooting stops. Netanyahu knows what he is doing, Biden, Blinken and the UN are not serving Israel's best interests.

If it's coming from the U.N. you can pretty safely bet that the cease-fire part will precede the hostage release. And the cycle so familiar in U.N. interventions will be repeated.

I don’t think many Americans realize how difficult it is to come to America legally. Among my own friends, I know an academic who has spent the past year in legal limbo, not allowed to work between teaching positions and constantly waiting on whether he can stay in America or not. In Georgia, I know a couple — the husband is American, the wife British — who can still not legalize as a couple, despite years of marriage and years of being together, who want to get themselves to America.

There’s plenty of bad news about the Republican campaign in 2024, and I’ve covered it in detail, but objectivity requires that one correctly assess what is going right too, and there’s a lot going right for Republicans right now. First and foremost, there is the massive change at the Republican National Committee with the firing of the utterly useless Ronna McDaniel and the elevation of Michael Whatley and Lara Trump.Next, Donald Trump is in a position where it looks like he is likely to win the presidency if current trends continue…that’s one heck of an if. And, finally, we also seem to be doing pretty well in the Senate races.

Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) to be prosecuted over allegations she and the other Jan. 6 committee members purposely withheld testimony and details from their investigation into the former president’s actions during the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol insurrection. Trump, on Truth Social on Sunday, posted a piece from former Trump administration aide Kash Patel published in The Federalist last week, in which Patel claimed Cheney and the House Jan. 6 committee “suppressed evidence” about the former president’s authorization of National Guard troops during the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol insurrection.

Trump made the remarks during a rally in Dayton, Ohio, where he was warning about the impacts on the automobile industry if he is not re-elected. “Now, if I don’t get elected, it’s gonna be a bloodbath. That’s going to be the least of it,” Trump said during a rally near Dayton, Ohio. “It’s going to be a bloodbath for the country.” If this election isn’t won, I’m not sure that you’ll ever have another election in this country,” he added.

There's new reporting about Joe Biden, and it's not looking good from inside the campaign. According to the report from NBC, Biden is "angry and anxious about his reelection effort." Nearly 20 lawmakers, present and past administration officials, and Biden allies, dished on his anger about Trump leading him in the polls. When he found out that his numbers were dropping, he was "seething." That's why he's now throwing Israel and Netanyahu under the bus, and doing all he can to try to appeal to the left to get them back into the fold. The polls have left him frustrated and questioning the travel and communication strategies.

European dislike for the person of Trump, who is cast as the antithesis of the Davos-approved globalist worried about global warming, not interested in chest-beating about Palestine, and demanding that others not treat the US as a "room service" reachable by pressing a button, is running shivers down many spines in Paris and Berlin among other places. This is why many Europeans prefer to see the Democrat donkey rather than the Republican elephant in the room. They miss the fact that the absent, that is present in the room, is neither the elephant nor the donkey but the leviathan.

San Diego County is one of the largest segments of California's homeless population, with more than 10,000. Locals in Pacific Beach say that the vagrants have moved from the city's downtown to their neighborhood and are openly defying laws banning them from camping out in their vehicles. The homeless are accused of not just camping out but bringing in drugs and leaving their garbage on the streets, ironically right next to signs that tell them they're not allowed to park there. Debbie Turnbull, who lives in the area, claims that it's a problem of the city trying to take the homeless out of the downtown area.

Democrats tried and true tactic when their policies failed and Americans abandoned them: blame Donald Trump. And it was no exception for Democrat Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson who claimed Trump supporters are the reason his homeless policy was rejected by voters. Johnson’s progressive agenda failed Wednesday night after 53.7 percent of Chicagoans voted against his homeless referendum, compared to 46.3 percent who were in support of it. The Democrat claimed that the same people who voted against his policy were “the same people who want to see Donald Trump … be president again.” “There were 38,000 Republicans that showed up and voted for Donald Trump… in Chicago,” Johnson said.
