McDonald’s Contradicts Itself on Israel-Hamas Attacks, Denies ‘Political Involvement’

/0 Comments/in , /by

McDonald’s appeared to contradict itself multiple times over its corporate position on the Israel-Hamas attacks after announcing it would be giving free food to Israeli soldiers.

The fast food franchise’s branches in Oman and Pakistan then posted statements on X (formerly Twitter) distancing themselves from the restaurant’s Israeli initiative.

“We also would like to confirm that McDonald’s Corporation is a listed company, owned by millions of shareholders from around the world, including Arabs and Muslims,” McDonald’s Oman said. “McDonald’s corporation never interferes in politics and always adheres to absolute neutrality.”

McDonald’s Pakistan released a similar statement, emphasizing their restaurants are “not affiliated with McDonald’s operations in Israel, which is a locally-owned Israeli enterprise.” The Pakistani branch also noted that the Israeli company is a “separate entity” from that overseeing the 81 restaurants in Pakistan.

FBI Director Warns of Rise in Terror Threats Against Americans, Potential Copy-Cat Attacks on U.S. Soil (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , /by

The head of the FBI is ominously warning there is a rising number of terror threats against the US — and that the biggest concern involves potential lone wolves pulling off Hamas copy-cat attacks here.

Agency chief Christopher Wray, 56, urged law enforcement to be extra cautious about ripple effects from the raging Israeli-Palestinian conflict during an address at the International Association of Chiefs of Police annual conference in San Diego on Saturday.

“History has been witness to antisemitic and other forms of violent extremism for far too long,” he said, according to an FBI transcript. “We remain committed to continue confronting those threats.

“In this heightened environment, there’s no question we’re seeing an increase in reported threats, and we’ve got to be on the lookout, especially for lone actors who may take inspiration from recent events to commit violence of their own,” he added.

Wray’s warning came a day after former Hamas chief Khaled Meshaal’s designated a “Day of Jihad” on Oct. 13. (Read more from “FBI Director Warns of Rise in Terror Threats Against Americans, Potential Copy-Cat Attacks on U.S. Soil (VIDEO)” HERE)

Elite Law Schools Encourage Students to Work for Israeli-Designated Terror Organizations

/0 Comments/in , /by

Three American law schools maintain web pages encouraging their students to work for organizations designated as terror groups by the Israeli government.

The University of California, Los Angeles School of Law and the Georgetown University Law Center promote Al-Haq, which was designated as a terrorist organization by Israel in 2021, as a potential employment option for their graduates. The Northeastern University School of Law promotes both Al-Haq and Addameer, another Israeli-designated terrorist organization, as part of its signature “Cooperative Legal Education Program.”

Georgetown Law includes Al-Haq among a list of “human rights organizations” for “those thinking about summer or post-graduate employment” in the field, according to the school’s website. The Israeli-designated terrorist group is listed alongside organizations like the American Civil Liberties Union and the United Nations Children’s Fund.

UCLA’s law school includes Al-Haq on a list for students that “can be used as a starting point to identify organizations working in your interest area” in the “Public International Law and Human Rights Careers Guide” posted on its website.

Washington Post Torn to Shreds for Defending ‘Peeping’ Biological Male Living at Sorority House

/0 Comments/in , /by

The Washington Post penned a 5,000-word defense for a biological male identifying as a female to live with women at a sorority house at the University of Wyoming. The left-leaning media outlet received a barrage of negative responses for attempting to make excuses for the transgender individual – who has been accused of having an erect penis while “peeping” at sorority sisters.

As Blaze News previously reported, Artemis Langford became the first transgender individual to be accepted into the Kappa Kappa Gamma sorority in October 2022. Langford was accepted into the sisterhood with a majority vote by KKG members.

However, some Kappa Kappa Gamma members later revealed that they were pressured into accepting Langford into the sorority because they feared being labeled as “homophobic” or “transphobic.”

In March 2023, several former and current members of Kappa Kappa Gamma filed a lawsuit against Langford. (Read more from “Washington Post Torn to Shreds for Defending ‘Peeping’ Biological Male Living at Sorority House” HERE)

/0 Comments/in , /by

Parents of students at a New Jersey grade school are outraged after a father and son who taught there were arrested for possession of child pornography.

65-year-old Jeffrey Grossman and his son 24-year-old Steven Grossman were arrested on accusations that they viewed, downloaded, and possessed child pornography. Parents heard about the arrests on Thursday.

The younger Grossman worked as a substitute teacher at Midland elementary school.

One parent was concerned because the older Grossman had accompanied students on a school trip to Washington, D.C., in May. . .

Others want to know how long their children were exposed to the Grossmans while the Bergen County Prosecutors Office investigated the accusations. (Read more from “Father and Son Grade School Teachers Arrested for Possession of Child Pornography” HERE)

Airlift Ordered by DeSantis Evacuates 300 Americans From Israel

/0 Comments/in , /by

An airlift operation initiated by Florida Governor Ron DeSantis evacuated 300 American citizens trapped inside Israel and is set to arrive in Florida on Sunday night.

The Messenger reported that the Republican presidential candidate will be at Tampa International Airport, along with Florida First Lady Casey DeSantis, to welcome home those onboard the flight.

DeSantis signed an executive order on Thursday authorizing the state to conduct rescue and evacuation operations in Israel following Hamas’ deadly terror attacks last weekend, which have killed well over two dozen Americans.

In the executive order, DeSantis took a shot at President Joe Biden for another lackluster response to a foreign policy disaster that has unfolded on his watch.

“The Biden administration has failed to launch any form of rescue or evacuation operations for Americans, including Floridians, stranded in the region, and has failed to provide information requested by the State of Florida about any plans for such operations,” DeSantis said.

Reports: Hamas Kills Palestinian Civilians Trying to Flee; Won’t Let Americans Leave (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , /by

Reports are emerging that the Hamas terrorist group is preventing civilians from evacuating northern Gaza, killing innocent Palestinians who try to leave, and preventing American citizens from using the Rafah border crossing to escape to Egypt.

Israel Defense Forces (IDF) spokesman Jonathan Conricus has been warning for days that Hamas is preventing civilians from leaving Gaza ahead of an anticipated ground war. He cited both Israeli and international sources in an interview on CNN Sunday:

The Times of Israel noted that Conricus expanded on that point during a question-and-answer session on Twitter/X Sunday, accusing Hamas of attacking a column of Palestinian civilians trying to evacuate, killing 70:

IDF spokesperson Jonathan Conricus says a strike on a convoy of Gazans fleeing to the southern part of the Strip Friday appears to have been a false flag operation carried out by Hamas.

…

At least 70 people, most of them children, were killed in the strike, which occurred on a route that Israel said should be used for fleeing Gazans. Another 200 were injured.

Biden Admin Warns Lawmakers Another Country Might Be About to Get Invaded

/0 Comments/in , , /by

By Daily Wire. Secretary of State Antony Blinken reportedly warned some U.S. lawmakers last week that Azerbaijan could soon invade Armenia.

POLITICO reported that the Biden administration is concerned that conflict in the Middle East could soon spread after Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev made recent remarks that he will retake the region “by force” after he invaded the Nagorno-Karabakh region last month.

Blinken claimed that the Biden administration was looking for ways to hold Azerbaijan accountable, including cutting off military assistance to the country. U.S. officials reportedly believe that the invasion could happen in the next several weeks.

The report, based on the way it was written, suggested that the administration only briefed Democrat lawmakers, saying that he expressed confidence about ongoing talks between the nations “to the Democratic lawmakers.” (Read more from “Biden Admin Warns Lawmakers Another Country Might Be About to Get Invaded” HERE)

Fears linger in Armenia of Azerbaijani invasion

By Fin DePencier. Armenia’s ambassador to the European Union, Tigran Balayan, said in an interview published on October 6 that Azerbaijan was actively preparing an invasion within weeks.

But on October 10 Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan told Armenian Public TV that that risk was “extremely low,” and that there was no military buildup on either side of the border.

The mixed messaging from Yerevan is puzzling, Balayan could be trying to create a sense of urgency, while Pashinyan tries to reduce tensions.

The concern surrounds Azerbaijan’s aim of realizing its “Zangezur Corridor” project to get land access to its exclave Nakhchivan through Armenian territory.

Famed Caucasus researcher Thomas de Waal recently described the corridor as the “next big issue,” saying that Russia, Azerbaijan and Turkey all have their own interests in its creation – and that it may be taken by force. (Read more from “Fears linger in Armenia of Azerbaijani invasion” HERE)

GOP Says DOJ Shut Down Potential Campaign Finance Prosecution in Hunter Case

/0 Comments/in , /by

House Republicans Friday accused the Department of Justice of quashing an investigation into a wealthy Democratic Party donor who helped pay off some of Hunter Biden’s unpaid taxes.

The House Ways and Means Committee pointed to the trove of material it obtained last month from IRS whistleblowers that included an allegation that a top prosecutor in the U.S. attorney’s office in Delaware dismissed IRS agents’ worries about a potential campaign finance violation related to the donor, Kevin Morris.

The whistleblowers provided the material, which was used in the Department of Justice’s investigation into Hunter Biden, after they testified to Congress that they had witnessed the DOJ extend preferential treatment to Hunter Biden, President Joe Biden’s son, and allow statutes of limitations to expire for certain tax crimes that could have been brought against him.

Hunter Biden is expected to be charged for evading taxes in 2017 and 2018, but other years that the whistleblowers say he was under investigation for remain unaccounted for. (Read more from “GOP Says DOJ Shut Down Potential Campaign Finance Prosecution in Hunter Case” HERE)

Israel War: Hamas Releases Hostage Footage of Israeli Children and Toddlers (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , /by

The terrorist organization Hamas released footage on Friday of its soldiers carrying children and toddlers during its surprise attack on Israel on Saturday.

The war has resulted in the deaths of at least 2,500 people total, including at least 27 Americans. Thousands of others have been injured or captured. Israel declared war against Hamas over the weekend after the attack.

It’s not clear how many hostages Hamas has taken, though the number has been estimated to be between 100 and 150 civilians and soldiers.

The footage shows terrorists carrying the children out of their homes, without the children’s parents in frame. Some men have the children on their laps, and one scene shows a soldier rocking a baby in the baby’s stroller. In other shots, viewers can see soldiers having children on one side and still carrying their guns.
