The United Nations has dramatically slashed the estimated number of women and children killed in Gaza by 50 percent. Without announcement, the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) altered their data on May 8 - reducing almost half the number of women and children previously reported killed in the Gaza conflict. The data which they base their reports on is collected from 'Gaza's Ministry of Health,' run by Hamas, the terror group that started the war on October 7.

the U.N. is the problem with creating any unity in this world, first of all - the organization is pro-communist and secondly, the ranks of the body politic of the U.N. is made up of mostly destitute dictatorships and communist country's leaning toward total fidelity to either Soviet Russia or Communist China or maybe, both but certainly not toward the USofA or any country affiliated with the United States

That's a bit more than "fog of war" excuse, rationalization and justification for the previously recited numbers.

So the obviously inflated numbers were even too much for the UN? That means the actual number is way less than even what the UN admits, but liberals will continue to quote the original inflated numbers.

THe internet is forever. So is poor reporting by the mainstream media. They have taken and run with the inflated numbers put out by Hamas since the beginning of the conflict. Now the UN admits that the numbers are inflated by at least half. HALF! That is over 15,000 deaths over reported (lied about) by Hamas with the help of the UN and the willing press. WHile the UN has quietly issued a "correction" to the numbers, the toothpaste is out of the tube with the inflated numbers. It cannot be put back in and will continue to be reported as fact and the "correction" ignored because it is an inconvenient fact. The UN workers are all part of Hamas. Anything coming out of Hamas or the UN is Gaza is not trustworthy!

So the first set of made-up numbers were too farfetched for even the UN? ....but of course the Noo Yawk Slymes reported it as Gospel Truth. That news cycle that reported this fake number is long past, the propaganda value is spent, so a 'correction' .... cutting the numbers in half, was issued.... and will be ignored by the Lamestreams. Not that this number is anything but made-up garbage as well. It is plain that Hamas cares nothing for the children and women of Gaza, as they hide behind them and use them as human shields and propaganda fodder. I say wipe out the Hamas thungs. Every. Single. One.

It doesn't matter what the UN says. Israel is in a state of war. Has been for decades (centuries?). I expect them to defend themselves and go after their enemies. I would be irresponsible not to. Israel did not start the war. Their neighbors did. I do not expect Israel to wipe out Hamas because Hamas is probably in 50 countries by now plus they have many allies. Hamas, sadly, will survive. At best, I expect Israel to maybe achieve a temporary lull in the war because Hamas will be out of Gaza, and then things will pick back up again.

More than half of the foreign-born immigrant population in the United States under President Joe Biden’s administration is unemployed, according to a recent report. The Center for Immigration Studies (CIS) released a report on Monday that showed that just 46 percent of migrants who had arrived in the U.S. “in 2022 or later” were employed as of the beginning of 2024. “Immigration clearly adds workers to the country, but it just as clearly adds non-workers who need to be supported by the labor of others,” Steven Camarota and Karen Zeigler, researchers with the CIS, wrote.

As I’ve said over and over again, the left plays chess while the right plays checkers. If even that anymore. The Left knows the game it’s playing and has a strategy for winning it. It’s once again operating in plain sight. It’s possible that looking back we will say that the 2024 presidential election was decided in 2023 with a Supreme Court race in Wisconsin. Democrats have scored a major off-year election victory in Wisconsin, winning the state’s open supreme court seat and flipping control of the court to liberals for the first time in 15 years.

FrontPage Mag readers may recall that back in December I wrote about Michael Cassidy, a conservative Christian and former Navy pilot who tore down a Satanic altar competing with a Christmas display of the Nativity in the Iowa State Capitol. Originally charged with fourth-degree criminal mischief, Cassidy was subsequently hit with a hate crime charge by Polk County Democrat Attorney Kimberly Graham, a prosecutor funded by – surprise – left-wing billionaire financier George Soros. Cassidy is now looking at a possible five years in prison.

US drugs chiefs are warning of deepening ties between Mexico's cartels and China as the fentanyl pills that claim lives from coast to coast are becoming more potent and deadlier. The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) has found evidence of Chinese middle men laundering more of the profits cartels make from selling narcotics in the United States. Meanwhile, the fentanyl that claims some 70,000 US lives each year has become even more dangerous, so that now some 70 percent of pills contain a fatal dose of the opioid.

The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill has abolished its Diversity, Equity and Inclusion program. UNC Chapel Hill's Board of Trustees voted Monday to cut funding for diversity programs in next year’s budget - and approved a change that would divert $2.3 million toward public safety and policing. The vote to shift more funding to public safety comes as continued pro-Palestinian protests on UNC’s campus have resulted in several arrests in recent weeks. The campus made national headlines after members of the Pi Kappa Phi fraternity took it upon themselves to shield the US flag after protesters replaced it with the Palestinian flag.

A former sales chief is suing IBM's Red Hat for being sacked alongside 20 other white men during the software subsidiary's aggressive diversity push to hire more women and African Americans. Allan Kingsley Wood, a white man, says he faced race and gender discrimination because of the company's diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) scheme, which set hiring targets for women and minorities. The case was filed by America First Legal (AFL), which is headed by former Trump administration official Stephen Miller, as part of a broader assault against DEI in businesses, colleges, and the military.

Israel has launched a rocket attack on Rafah after dismissing Hamas accepting a Gaza ceasefire proposal as a 'ruse'. Hamas issued a statement earlier today saying its supreme leader, Ismail Haniyeh, had delivered the news in a phone call with Qatar's prime minister and Egypt's intelligence minister. But an Israeli official said the proposal that Hamas had accepted was a 'softened' version of an Egyptian proposal, which included 'far-reaching' conclusions that Israel could not accept. 'This would appear to be a ruse intended to make Israel look like the side refusing a deal,' said the Israeli official, who spoke on condition of anonymity.

The New York prosecutor in the New York City hush money case against Donald Trump was previously hired for 'political consulting' by the Democratic National Committee. The revelations regarding attorney Matthew Colangelo raises concerns over the perceived politicalization of the multiple cases against the former president – and specifically the first case brought by Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg's office. Colangelo, according to a Fox News Digital review of Federal Election Commission records, was paid $12,000 by the DNC on January 31, 2018. It was distributed by DNC Services Corp/Democratic National Committee in two separate payments of $6,000 on the same day.

The Bible calls the Jews “a stiff-necked” people. (“The Lord also said to me, ‘I have seen this people, and they are indeed a stiff-necked people.’” Deuteronomy 9:13.) In other words, they’re stubborn, and nothing has been more stubborn than American Jews’ long-standing refusal to acknowledge the rising antisemitism in the heart of the Democrat party. Donald Trump’s pro-Israel record barely swayed them. However, Biden’s blatant anti-Israel policies, combined with the violent antisemitism in academia, may finally be doing the trick. Traditionally, Jews have been second only to blacks in their fealty to the Democrat party. Many of them came from Tsarist Russia, which was fiercely antisemitic.

Cobb also fantasized about the adrenaline rush and high he’d feel during such a shooting. “I’d probably OD on my own adrenaline after the 10th body goes down,” he allegedly wrote on social media in March of last year.
