American Death Toll From Hamas Attacks Reaches New Mark

/0 Comments/in , , /by

By Washington Examiner. Fourteen Americans were among the hundreds of people who were killed in multipronged terrorist attacks across southern Israel this weekend, President Joe Biden said.

“More than 1,000 civilians slaughtered, not just killed, slaughtered in Israel,” Biden said on Tuesday afternoon while delivering remarks about the attacks. “Among them, at least 14 American citizens killed.” He confirmed “American citizens are among those being held by Hamas,” and added, “I’ve directed my team to share intelligence and deploy additional experts from across the United States government to consult with and advise Israeli counterparts on hostage recovery efforts.”

National security adviser Jake Sullivan announced shortly after that there are “20 or more” Americans who remain unaccounted for, and he stressed that they are not certain whether they are among the 100-150 hostages Hamas took back to Gaza.

“We believe that there are 20 or more Americans that are missing, but I want to underscore and stress that does not mean necessarily that there are 20 or more American hostages,” he told reporters. “Just that is the number that are currently unaccounted for.” (Read more from “American Death Toll From Hamas Attacks Reaches New Mark” HERE)

A Mother Who Shielded Her Son From Gunmen and a ‘Pro-peace’ Academic Are Among the Americans Killed in Israel

By CNN. Deborah Matias, an American citizen who lived in Israel, was shot and killed by Hamas gunmen while shielding her teenage son from their bullets, her father told CNN.

Hayim Katsman, an Israeli-American academic, was hiding in a closet with his neighbor when he was fatally shot, his sibling said.

They are among at least 14 US citizens who were killed in Israel after the Gaza-based militant group launched a devastating attack early Saturday that left at least 1,000 there dead.

There are also “20 or more Americans” in Israel who are currently unaccounted for, National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan said Tuesday. (Read more from “A Mother Who Shielded Her Son From Gunmen and a ‘Pro-peace’ Academic Are Among the Americans Killed in Israel” HERE)

Dem Rep. Refuses to Condemn Beheadings of Israeli Babies When Confronted by Media (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , /by

Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI), who has an extensive history of anti-Semitism, refused to condemn the beheadings of Israeli babies on Tuesday when confronted by a reporter on Capitol Hill.

Tlaib’s silence comes as Israeli officials confirmed Wednesday morning local time that more than 1,200 Israelis were murdered by Palestinian terrorists during the unprecedented attacks over the weekend. Fourteen Americans were also murdered.

Tlaib, who is Palestinian-American, blamed Israel for the terrorist attacks in a statement put out by her office, saying, “The path to the future must include lifting the blockade, ending the occupation, and dismantling the apartheid system that creates the suffocating, dehumanizing conditions that can lead to resistance.”

When Tlaib was confronted by a television crew on Tuesday evening, she ran and refused to answer any questions.

“Congresswoman, Hamas terrorists have cut off babies’ heads and burned children alive; do you support Israel’s right to defend themselves against this brutality?” the reporter asked.

Report: Israeli Soldiers Find Dead Babies After Palestinian Hamas Attack

/0 Comments/in , /by

Israeli soldiers discovered dead babies after the Palestinian Hamas invasion of the nation that began Saturday, i24news correspondent Nicole Zedeck recounted.

“I’m talking to some of the soldiers and they say what they’ve witnessed as they’ve been walking through these different houses, these different communities,” Zedeck reported in the town of Kfar Aza, Israel, which is located near the border of the Gaza Strip. Kfar Aza is a small town located in southern Israel between Netivot and Sderot.

“Babies, their heads cut off. That’s what they said,” she recalled. “Gunned down families — completely gunned down in their beds.” . . .

He later showed Israeli Major General Itai Veruv on air, who said:

What I saw, hundreds of terrorists in full armor, full gear, with all the equipment and all the ability make a massacre. Go from apartment to apartment, from room to room and kill babies, mothers, fathers in their bedrooms… They locked themselves in the protection rooms of their houses and people were out with their children and they killed them. They killed babies in front of their parents, and then killed the parents. They killed parents and we found babies between the dogs and the family killed before him. They cut heads of the people.

Terrorism: Black Lives Matter Supports Hamas Amid Terror Attack on Israel

/0 Comments/in , /by

Black Lives Matter Grassroots organization showed support for the Palestinian militant group Hamas on Tuesday as the terrorist group launched the deadliest attack on Jewish people since the Holocaust.

Black Lives Matter Grassroots, which represents 26 local BLM chapters across the country, issued a lengthy statement “in solidarity with the Palestinian people.”

Hamas launched a terror attack on Israel from Gaza over the weekend on the Jewish holiday of Shemini Atzeret, the final day of the annual High Holy Day cycle. The attack has resulted in over 900 deaths and at least 2,500 wounded, according to the latest reports. At least 11 Americans were also killed during the violent terror attacks.

The statement references the violent attacks on Israel as an understandable “desperate act of self-defense.”

Biden Admin’s Lies About Aid to Gaza Are Totally Unbelievable

/0 Comments/in , , /by

By Townhall. White House aides spent the weekend crying about “misinformation” from those critical of the Biden administration’s decision to unfreeze $6 billion for Iran — the financial and often strategic backer of Hamas and other anti-Israel terrorist organizations — as well as seeking to dispel talk that “aid” money Biden sent to Gaza boosted Hamas terrorists. . .

But that’s a lie. The Biden administration did know that such aid — as they admitted in internal documents — came with a “high risk” that Hamas would benefit as a result.

According to reporting from The Washington Free Beacon’s Adam Kredo in August, the outlet obtained internal documents that showed the Biden administration “pushed through plans to distributed hundreds of millions of dollars in taxpayer aid” to areas controlled by Hamas “despite internal assessments that those plans could boost the Iran-backed terrorist group.”

The Real Problem Is Elon Letting People See What Hamas Videotaped Themselves Doing

By Hot Air. If you thought that the greatest sin committed this weekend was when Palestinian assassins of every stripe walked, drove, and glided into Israel for murder, mayhem, kidnapping, and rape, you’d be wrong. . .

If you thought watching blissful rave dancers in the gloaming, exuberantly living life and then noticed the ominous…what, like birds? Dark shapes drifting and shifting, coming ever closer, but still out of focus in the sky beyond them.

At last realizing those were Palestinian motorized paragliders with a mass murderer a piece aboard. . .

In hindsight knowing now what they are, you might feel this is one of the most ghastly things you’d ever seen. . .

When even a hardened, reflexive anti-MAGA, anti-rightwing, anti-conservative critic like Jonathan Greenblatt of the ADL is heartsick. Shaken and angered to his very soul by what has happened – the enormity of the horror – and furious at what he is hearing… (Read more from “The Real Problem Is Elon Letting People See What Hamas Videotaped Themselves Doing” HERE)

U.S. Megapastor: Is Attack Against Israel Setting up Bible Prophecy?

/0 Comments/in , /by

. . .[F]amed Christian evangelist Greg Laurie is warning that the violent events now developing were predicted in the Bible, and people should be paying attention – close attention.

“You’re seeing Bible prophecy fulfilled in your lifetime, in real-time, before your very eyes,” he wrote in a column at Harbingers Daily. . .

“But this was a different kind of war. Thousands of rockets rained on Israel from multiple directions. Hamas gunmen invaded by land, sea, and sky, and hundreds of people were murdered and kidnapped. They were using what we might describe as ISIS-like methods,” he described. . .

“They launched massive, indiscriminate rocket fire toward civilian population centers, as well as terrorist infiltration of cities and settlements close to the Gaza border. They went home to home, door to door, looking for the young and the elderly. Some of the women they took as hostages were survivors of the Holocaust.” . . .

He explained, “It’s interesting how it always comes back to Jerusalem. The Bible predicted 1000s of years ago that the end-times events would revolve around Jerusalem. Not Irvine. Not Los Angeles. Not Moscow. Not Paris. Jerusalem, this tiny little city, this tiny sliver of land, will play a key role in the events of the last days. It’s a focal point of end-times events.” (Read more from “U.S. Megapastor: Is Attack Against Israel Setting up Bible Prophecy?” HERE)

Biden’s New Military Chief Warns Iran Over Israel-Hamas Conflict

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Joe Biden‘s newly-installed military leader issued a warning on Monday to Iran as Israel goes to war against Hamas after the militant group conducted a deadly raid from Gaza over the weekend.

Asked what his message is to Iran, Gen. CQ Brown, who was confirmed as chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff a little more than two weeks ago, said, “Not to get involved,” according to a small group of reporters who spoke to him on a flight to Brussels and relayed parts of their conversation on X.

The Washington Post’s Dan Lamothe noted Brown referred to the deployment of a carrier strike group to the Eastern Mediterranean and additional fighter jets to the region.

“We wanted to send a pretty strong message that we don’t want this to broaden, and the idea is for Iran to get that message loud and clear,” Brown explained.

The Biden administration concedes Iran has long provided assistance to Hamas, but so far has publicly pushed back on claims that Iran helped plot the attack on Israel. (Read more from “Biden’s New Military Chief Warns Iran Over Israel-Hamas Conflict” HERE)

Biden Says at Least 11 Americans Among Those Killed in Israel, Warns of Hostages

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Biden on Monday announced that the number of Americans killed in terrorist attacks against Israel had risen to 11, and he warned that American citizens may be among those being held hostage by the militant group Hamas.

“As we continue to account for the horrors of the appalling terrorist assault against Israel this weekend and the hundreds of innocent civilians who were murdered, we are seeing the immense scale and reach of this tragedy,” Biden said in a statement. “Sadly, we now know that at least 11 American citizens were among those killed — many of whom made a second home in Israel.”

U.S. officials are still working to confirm whether Americans are among those being held by Hamas, but said “it is likely” that is the case. “I have directed my team to work with their Israeli counterparts on every aspect of the hostage crisis, including sharing intelligence and deploying experts from across the United States government to consult with and advise Israeli counterparts on hostage recovery efforts,” Biden said.

John Kirby, a White House spokesperson on national security issues, told reporters on a call later Monday that the administration can’t confirm Hamas is holding Americans hostage, but that there are still many Americans who are unaccounted for.

“So I can’t say definitely that we know Americans are being held hostage,” Kirby said. “That said, we have to accept the grim possibility that some are.” (Read more from “Biden Says at Least 11 Americans Among Those Killed in Israel, Warns of Hostages” HERE)

‘Today It’s Israel, Tomorrow It’s Us’: After Israel Attack, GOP Warns of Terror in U.S. Due to Joe Biden’s ‘Asinine’ Open Border Policy

/0 Comments/in , /by

Republican officials are slamming President Joe Biden’s “asinine” open border policies that have allowed in “military aged men from all corners of the world,” warning of potential terror attacks in the U.S. and the likelihood of terrorist “sleeper cells” as they point to the recent brutal attacks in Israel that saw terrorists breach the border and murder hundreds of Israeli civilians while taking dozens as hostages, warning, “Today it’s Israel, tomorrow it’s us.”

Highlighting Israel’s costly failure to secure its border over the weekend, Republicans are speaking out on the increasing threat of terrorism on U.S. soil due to poor border security that has already seen an unprecedented amount of people on the terrorist watchlist caught attempting to cross the southern border, leading to concerns of untold amounts of others who have managed to successfully infiltrate the country.

“Now is the time for bold action,” declared former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA). “Here’s how America must meet the moment: 1. Rescue all American hostages 2. Provide full support for our ally Israel 3. Confront Iran and the new Axis of Evil 4. Focus on securing our own open border 5. Condemn antisemitism in the United States.”

“We should wake up ourselves. We could have the same thing happen next week to us,” McCarthy noted. “We caught more people on the terrorist watchlist in February than we caught in the entire administration. We could have cells sitting inside of America right now.”

Radicals, Muslims in West Join to Celebrate Hamas Terror Attacks (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , /by

Radicals and immigrant Muslims in many Western countries staged pro-HAMAS and anti-Jewish celebrations on Sunday, joining as one to celebrate the terror group’s bloody, hateful — and likely, counterproductive — assaults on Israeli civilians and soldiers.

The protests took place in cities where political and business leaders have imported millions of devout — or lapsed — Muslims to artificially stimulate the local economies.

In Australia, “A large crowd gathered outside Lakemba Station on Sunday night, just one day after at least 600 Israeli civilians were killed and thousands more injured in the largest and most well co-ordinated strike on the Jewish state in 50 years,” DailyMail.com reported on October 8:

‘I’m smiling and I’m happy. I’m elated,’ Sheik Ibrahim Dadoun told the crowd.

‘It’s a day of courage. It’s a day of pride. It’s a day of victory. This is the day we’ve been waiting for!’ he shouted as the mob who chanted ‘Allahu Akbar’ …
