Poll Finds Americans Overwhelmingly Support Israel’s War on Hamas, but Younger Americans Defend Hamas

/0 Comments/in , /by

A poll of Americans found that an overwhelming number support Israel’s war on Hamas terrorists, but a majority of younger Americans were sympathetic to the plight of Palestinians.

The Harvard CAPS-Harris Poll found that 84% of respondents sided with Israel while only 16% sided with the Hamas militants.

Among older Americans aged 65 years and older, 95% said they supported Israel while only 5% said they supported Hamas.

A slight majority of 51% of Americans aged 18 to 24 years said that the terror attack by Hamas on Israel could be justified by the grievances of Palestinians. 49% of those the same ages disagreed that the attack could be justified.

“There is strong support for Israel across all parties and against Hamas. They think Israel should not cease hostilities until they have weakened Hamas,” said Mark Penn, a co-director of the poll.

Biden’s 2023 Flood: One Migrant for Every American Newborn

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Joe Biden’s deputies welcomed at least one economic migrant into the United States during the last 12 months for every American newborn or high-school graduate.

More than 4 million economic migrants crossed the southern border during the government’s October-to-September budget year, according to federal data released October 21.

In contrast, 3.67 million Americans were born during the matching 12-month period in 2022, according to the Census Bureau. That 2022 number includes at least 400,000 births to illegal migrants.

The inflow also creates vast economic competition for the 3 million American youths who graduated from schools in the 10 months up to October 2022, the bureau reported.

One predictable result is that the new migrants are pricing ordinary Americans out of housing. (Read more from “Biden’s 2023 Flood: One Migrant for Every American Newborn” HERE)

Major Chance of Escalation in Attacks on U.S. Troops, Pentagon Says

/0 Comments/in , /by

Iran and its proxy militias in the Middle East intend to escalate conflict by attacking U.S. troops based in the region, defense and military officials said on Monday.

Since Thursday, U.S. troops based in Iraq and Syria have endured at least 5 drone and rocket attacks, while Iran-backed Iraqi militant groups have claimed several additional attacks. The Pentagon initially said the incidents should be considered independently, but on Monday, senior officials, speaking on condition of anonymity to give a situational update, said they are part of a concerted effort by Iran to draw the U.S. into conflict.

“What has happened in the last several days is efforts by Iran and Iranian proxy forces in an attempt to escalate this conflict,” a senior defense official said Monday.

“We see a much more significant prospect for conflict in the near term,” the official continued, adding that U.S. forces are prepared for any potential escalation. The U.S. will “hold Iran accountable” for its actions, the official said. (Read more from “Major Chance of Escalation in Attacks on U.S. Troops, Pentagon Says” HERE)

White House Sympathizes With Muslims

/0 Comments/in , /by

White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre declared Monday that Muslims have “endured a disproportionate number of hate-fueled attacks” when asked if the Biden administration was concerned about the potential rise of antisemitism in the wake of the Hamas terrorist attack in Israel.

“Look, we have not seen any credible threats,” Jean-Pierre replied after a reporter asked the White House spokeswoman to detail the administration’s level of concern about the potential rise of antisemitism.

“I know there’s been always questions about credible threats, and so just want to make sure that that’s out there,” she said before immediately switching her sympathies to Muslims.

Continuing to sidestep the original question by offering her sympathy to the Muslim community rather than the Jewish community, she said:

But look, Muslim[s] and those perceived to be Muslim have endured a disproportionate number of hate-fueled attacks, and certainly President [Joe] Biden understands that many of our Muslim Arab, Arab Americans, and Palestinian American loved ones and neighbors are worried about the hate being directed at their communities.

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Hundreds of people in Spokane County, Washington, who were accused of violent crimes have been released from jail without posting bail, a new report shows.

According to the The Spokesman-Review, records show that people accused of violent crimes, including rape, molesting children, making death threats, vehicular homicide and assaults were set free “on their promise to behave and show up to court when summoned.”

Reportedly, this has occurred 665 times in the county from Jan. 1, 2021, to Set. 30. Some of those released from jail allegedly committed violent crimes after (The Spokesman-Review):

Nathan Nash, the ex-Spokane police officer who raped two women after using his badge to gain their trust, spent years awaiting trial not from the confines of a jail cell, but in his own home. He did not have to post bail.

Jordan Knippling walked out of the Spokane County Jail without a judge setting bail after he was accused of punching a nurse at MultiCare Valley Hospital and throwing medical equipment. A year later, while out of jail on his own recognizance, prosecutors allege he killed a man at a homeless camp.

Feds Warn: Hamas, Hezbollah Could Be Crossing Southern Border

/16 Comments/in , , /by

Federal officials are warning that members of Hamas, Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) and Hezbollah could be crossing through the southern border, according to an internal October 20 memo exclusively obtained by the Daily Caller News Foundation.

The San Diego Field Office Intelligence Division of Customs and Border Protection (CBP) sent the memo warning that due to the war between Israel and Hamas, there could be encounters of terror-tied individuals who are seeking to travel to or from the Middle East via transit across the southern border. Hamas, PIJ and Hezbollah, all of which are U.S.-designated terrorist organizations, have been committing attacks on Israel in a war that began with a surprise attack on hundreds of civilians on October 7.

“San Diego Field Office Intelligence Unit assesses that individuals inspired by, or reacting to the current Israel-Hamas conflict may attempt travel to or from the area of hostilities in the Middle East via circuitous transit across the Southwest border,” the memo reads.

“Foreign fighters motivated by ideology or mercenary soldiers of fortune may attempt to obfuscate travel to or from the US to or from countries in the Middle East through Mexico,” the memo adds. (Read more from “Feds Warn: Hamas, Hezbollah Could Be Crossing Southern Border” HERE)

New Suspicions on Who Built Jan. 6 ‘Gallows’

/0 Comments/in , , /by

A new report is raising questions about who put a gallows on the National Mall for the Jan. 6, 2021, election protests, an image that has been used by Democrats to smear supporters of former President Donald Trump.

Lawyer Ed Martin, who has helped over 100 riot suspects fight their cases, has reviewed hours of video and believes that the structure from which a noose was hung was planted by anti-Trump operatives, not the election protesters.

“Reagan taught us to trust but verify. In the current environment, my operating system is: ‘Distrust, then verify.’ And so my starting point is they’re lying to us. And then I’ll figure out if they might be telling the truth,” he told Secrets.

Martin, well known in conservative circles as president of the Phyllis Schlafly Eagles and for his Pro America Report radio show, said the video shows a man rolling the gallows to the Mall early on Jan. 6. He then goes to get coffee. “Who is Mr. Coffee?” he asked in his report. Several hours later, the same man returns to finish assembling the device after lunch.

Veterans Administration Now Aborting Babies, Has Performed Dozens of Procedures

/0 Comments/in , /by

The Department of Veterans Affairs provided 88 abortions in the first year that it offered the procedure, according to a document sent to Congress this month that was obtained by Military.com.

The number was given to the House Veterans Affairs Committee after the Republican-led panel threatened to subpoena the VA if it did not provide detailed data on the abortions it has provided.

While the department gave the committee top-line figures of how many abortions it performed, it declined to provide any more detailed data, citing privacy concerns — prompting committee leaders to renew their subpoena threat.

The VA began offering abortions for the first time in September 2022 after states banned or severely restricted the procedure in the wake of the Supreme Court ruling in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization. The ruling overturned 50 years of nationwide abortion rights granted by Roe v. Wade.

Senator Says Biden’s $100B Request That Includes Aid for Gaza Is ‘Dead on Arrival’

/0 Comments/in , /by

Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR), who works closely with Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, said Friday that President Joe Biden’s request for $105 billion in foreign aid doesn’t stand a chance to pass the Senate in its current form.

Biden announced the foreign aid package that sends $60 billion to Ukraine and includes $3.5 billion for Gaza during his address to the nation on Thursday. The president touted the package as vital support for Israel as well, but the majority of the funds would go to Ukraine. While Ukraine would receive $60 billion under the aid package, Israel would be sent $14 billion for “sharpen[ing] Israel’s military edge,” to replenish its Iron Dome, and to send a message to Iran that the U.S. stands with Israel, Biden said.

“President Biden’s slush fund proposal is dead on arrival, just like his budgets. We will not spend, for example, $3.5 billion to address the ‘potential needs of Gazans,’ essentially functioning as a resupply line for Hamas terrorists,” Cotton said in a statement.

“We will also not spend $11.8 billion to fund the Ukrainian government’s own non-war spending, such as funding retirement pensions for Ukrainian government employees,” the senator added. “Nor will we spend $4.7 billion for housing, transportation, and ‘services’ for illegal aliens in the United States rather than deporting them.” (Read more from “Senator Says Biden’s $100B Request That Includes Aid for Gaza Is ‘Dead on Arrival’” HERE)
