/0 Comments/in , /by

President Joe Biden warned the Islamic Republic of Iran on Friday to not launch an attack against Israel because the U.S. was committed to the defense of Israel. . .

The president made the remarks at the National Action Network Convention in the Eisenhower Executive Office Building when asked how imminent the attack was.

“I don’t want to say,” Biden said. “I don’t want to get into secure information, but my expectation is sooner than later.”

When asked what his message to Iran was, he responded: “Don’t.”

“We are devoted to the defense of Israel. We will support Israel,” he added. “We will defend — help defend Israel. And Iran will not succeed. Thank you very much.”

Tucker Carlson Shines Light on Devastation Brought on Palestinian Christians Amid Gaza Conflict

/0 Comments/in , , /by

In a recent interview, Tucker Carlson brought attention to the plight of Palestinian Christians in Gaza amidst the ongoing conflict between Israel and Hamas. Speaking with Reverend Munther Isaac, pastor at the Evangelical Lutheran Christian Church in Bethlehem, Carlson shed light on the severe impacts faced by the Christian community in the region.

During the interview, Carlson emphasized a seldom-discussed aspect of American foreign policy, noting the disproportionate suffering endured by Christians in conflict zones. He highlighted instances such as the destruction of a Greek Orthodox Church in Gaza during an October airstrike, which claimed the lives of at least 17 people. Carlson also recalled the tragic events of the 2002 siege of the Church of Nativity, where an Israeli soldier fatally shot a mentally disabled clergyman.

Reverend Isaac elaborated on the challenges faced by Palestinian Christians, describing the fragmentation of Christian communities across Gaza, Israel, the West Bank, and East Jerusalem. He underscored how the harsh realities of Israeli military occupation have compelled many young Palestinian Christians to leave their homeland in search of better opportunities elsewhere.

Moreover, Isaac lamented the lack of support from American lawmakers, noting the absence of aid or solidarity from Congress, with few exceptions. He expressed disappointment in the failure of self-professed Christian leaders to advocate for their brethren in the Middle East.

Carlson criticized figures within the American Christian right who remained silent or even advocated for actions detrimental to Palestinian Christians. He called attention to statements made by Republican Michigan Representative Tim Walberg, condemning his call to eliminate U.S. aid to Gaza in a manner akin to Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

Isaac condemned such rhetoric, highlighting the incongruity between calls for mass violence and the teachings of Christ. He expressed concern over the damage inflicted on the credibility of Christians in the Middle East by such statements.

The interview further delved into harrowing accounts of Israeli airstrikes targeting churches and killing innocent civilians, including children. Isaac recounted the tragic loss of life, emphasizing the vulnerability of Palestinian Christians amid the conflict.

Isaac also drew attention to the persecution faced by Christians in East Jerusalem, where they are targeted by radical Jewish groups. He described incidents of vandalism, harassment, and incitement against Christians, calling for accountability for such acts.

Overall, the interview served as a stark reminder of the human cost of the Israel-Hamas conflict, particularly for vulnerable communities like Palestinian Christians

Israel Prepares to Eliminate Iran’s Nuclear Facilities if Iran Launches Retaliatory Attack on Israel

/1 Comment/in , /by

Israel has reportedly indicated that if Iran launches a strike in retaliation for Israel killing a top Iranian general last week, Israel will respond by destroying Iran’s nuclear sites.

The Times of Israel highlighted a report from a London-based Arab news organization this week that cited a “Western security official” who said that Israel has been conducting air force drills in recent days “that include preparing to target Iranian nuclear facilities and other key infrastructure.”

Israel eliminated Mohammed Reza Zahedi, the top commander of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps’s Quds Force in Lebanon and Syria, from the battlefield last week as he met with other Iranian commanders and leaders from the Palestinian Islamic Jihad terrorist group.

The Coalition Council of Islamic Revolution Forces, a staunchly pro-IRGC political group, responded to the strike by praising Zahedi’s “strategic role in forming and strengthening the resistance front as well as in planning and executing” Hamas’ October 7 terrorist attack against Israel.

The Claims of a Gaza Genocide Get Totally Dismantled on Joe Rogan’s Podcast

/0 Comments/in , /by

You can see why some progressives can’t stand this guy. Coleman Hughes dismantled the race-baiting hysterics on The View, where he bulldozed Sunny Hostin’s points about race and inequality. Hughes has a new book highlighting how policies to lift the general working poor will pay off more in building a more equitable society. Most non-whites are in this class, so you’re helping improve their lives, along with poor whites. The problem is that it’s not race-obsessed. Hughes isn’t a conservative but a proud independent who will call out the lunacy at both ends.

He took The View to school, which wasn’t a strenuous exercise, but he also torched the myth of an Israeli genocide in Gaza. It’s a point erroneously touted by pro-Hamas elements within the Democratic Party, the media, and on college campuses. It often has zero impact beyond the usual lefty bubbles because it’s facially untrue. Are there people dying in Gaza? Sure, that’s what happens in war, but it’s not a genocide. Hughes was recently on Joe Rogan’s podcast, where he shredded these claims.

The first and most apparent is that genocidal killings are targeted and done en masse. You want to kill as many people as possible with a defined goal to purge whatever ethnic or racial sub-group off the face of the Earth. Collateral damage in Gaza isn’t genocide. He also added that if we’re taking the figures at face value, the current estimates that 13,000 Hamas terrorists have been killed, along with 19,000 civilians. On a ratio basis concerning urban warfare, that’s on par. He goes through a list of urban battles fought in Iraq. The campaign to liberate Mosul from ISIS in 2016-2017 resulted in at least 10,000 civilians being killed in the fighting.

Biden to Force Jewish-Made Products From Israel to Be Labeled: Report

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Joe Biden is reportedly preparing to force Jewish made products from Judea and Samaria to be clearly labeled so consumers know where the products are from — a clear sign that the administration wants to enable boycotts.

The Financial Times reported that the timing of the new policy is unknown at this point and that it is designed to “increase pressure on Israel” over what Palestinians claim is violence from Israelis who live in Judea and Samaria.

The report said that the move from the administration would reverse a policy enacted by President Donald Trump that required goods made in Judea and Samaria to be labeled as “Made in Israel.”

The Biden administration late last month refused to block a U.N. resolution calling for a ceasefire in Israel’s war against the Hamas terrorists who murdered 1,200 people on October 7. Thousands more were injured and hundreds were taken hostage, including many Americans.

Many expressed outrage over the move from Biden, noting that it was close to a full-on endorsement of the global anti-Semitic Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions campaign to that was created to destroy the state of Israel.

Anti-Israel Protesters Chant ‘Death to America,’ ‘Death to Israel’ on International Al-Quds Day (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , /by

Anti-Israel protesters in Dearborn, Michigan, closed out Ramadan by chanting, “Death to America” and “Death to Israel,” during an International Al-Quds Day rally.

Video of the protest went viral on social media Sunday, showing activists condemning both Israel and America in the harshest of terms. Activist Tarek Bazzi of the Hadi Institute said chants of “Death to America” and “Death to Israel” were only logical.

“Why are our protests on the International Day of Al-Quds, why are they so anti-America?” he asked. “Why don’t we just focus more on Israel and not talk so much about America? Gaza has shown the entire world why these protests are so anti-America. Because it’s the United States government that provides the funds for all the atrocities that we just heard about.”

“Imam Khomeini, who declared the International Al-Quds Day, this is why he would say to pour all of your chants and all of your shouts upon the head of America,” he later added.

Bazzi then quoted Malcolm X, who said the United States is “one of the rottenest countries that has ever existed on this Earth.” (Read more from “Anti-Israel Protesters Chant ‘Death to America,’ ‘Death to Israel’ on International Al-Quds Day” HERE)

Iran Asks U.S. to ‘Step Aside’ as Plans for Retaliation Mount, Iranian Official Says

/0 Comments/in , /by

Iran asked the United States to not interfere in its plans for retaliation against Israel, an Iranian official alleged Friday.

Mohammad Jamshidi, Iran’s deputy chief of staff for political affairs, claimed in a tweet that this exchange occurred.

“In a written message, the Islamic Republic of Iran warned America not to fall into Netanyahu’s trap: step aside so you don’t get hit. In response, America asked Iran not to hit American targets,” Jamshidi tweeted.

The U.S. warned, as opposed to “asked,” Iran not to use this as a pretext to attack U.S. facilities and personnel, a State Dept. spokesperson told the Daily Caller. The spokesperson confirmed that the U.S. did receive a message from Iran but did not specify the message’s contents.

Biden Demands Israel Enact ‘Immediate Ceasefire’ Against Hamas Terrorists; Blames Israel For Hostages Not Being Freed

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Joe Biden, in a call with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, demanded that Israel enact an “immediate ceasefire” in its war against Hamas and threatened that the U.S. would change its support for Israel if it does not meet the administration’s demands.

Biden attacked Israel for the humanitarian situation inside Gaza, calling it “unacceptable,” even though Israel has worked to allow aid to flow into the area, but has had to do so in a manner that prevents weapons from entering.

“[Biden] made clear the need for Israel to announce and implement a series of specific, concrete, and measurable steps to address civilian harm, humanitarian suffering, and the safety of aid workers,” the White House said in a readout of the call. “He made clear that U.S. policy with respect to Gaza will be determined by our assessment of Israel’s immediate action on these steps.”

“He underscored that an immediate ceasefire is essential to stabilize and improve the humanitarian situation and protect innocent civilians, and he urged the Prime Minister to empower his negotiators to conclude a deal without delay to bring the hostages home,” the statement continued.

Biden Slammed by Democrats and Republicans Over Response to Israeli Airstrike That Killed 7 Aid Workers in Gaza

/3 Comments/in , /by

President Biden has received criticism from Democrats and Republicans this week over his response to an Israeli airstrike that killed seven World Central Kitchen aid workers in Gaza on Monday.

On Tuesday, Biden, 81, said he was “outraged and heartbroken” over the deaths of the aid workers delivering food to Gaza’s population, but didn’t signal any change in approach to his administration’s backing of Israel in its war against Hamas.

The president, in his public statement, pinned the blame squarely on Israel, demanding an investigation that “must bring accountability” and accusing the Jewish state of not having “done enough to protect aid workers” in the Palestinian territory.

Privately, Politico reports, Biden is “enraged” over the airstrike and was “angry” when he was notified that the Israel Defense Forces mistakenly targeted members of celebrity chef Jose Andres’ humanitarian group.

Jon Favreau, a one time speechwriter for former President Barack Obama and the host of “Pod Save America,” slammed Biden over the report, arguing that private expressions of rage are not enough in the aftermath of Monday’s tragedy.
