State Universities Are Teaching Students to Blow up Oil Pipelines, Records Show

At least sixteen universities are promoting the book “How to Blow Up A Pipeline,” which outlines for readers how to commit eco-terrorism — oftentimes making it required reading, a Daily Wire investigation found.

The book was published in 2021 by Swedish professor Andreas Malm and calls for terrorism and overthrowing capitalism, acknowledging that people will be killed as a result. “Demolish them, burn them, blow them up. Let the capitalists who keep investing in the fire know that their properties will be trashed,” the book says.

Now multiple state-funded universities took classes that were nominally on unrelated topics, and contorted them into courses that read just four books, including the pipeline manifesto and a communist manifesto. At the University of California-Berkeley, for example, students of Geography & Interactive Biology were required to read the book. Instructors Jake Kosek and Paul Fine took what was ostensibly a biology course and transformed it into one on “decolonization.” The syllabus states that the “class focuses on the scientific practice of modern botanical taxonomy as a colonial formation that conditions our modern relations” and how the names of plants “were often forged to be of service to empire-building.”

The lessons across the country suggest that universities’ support for terrorism extends beyond the students supporting Hamas on many campuses. In fact, the book looks to Palestinian terrorists for inspiration, advising that, “As part of the mass resistance in the besieged Gaza Strip in the spring of 2018, Palestinians invented techniques for sending kites and helium-inflated condoms carrying incendiary materials across the wall to burn Israeli property.”

U.S. intelligence identified the book as a “developing threat” and security risk because “Malm encourages pipeline sabotage and property destruction.” Twenty-three government agencies, including the FBI, warned that the film adaptation of the book, released in 2023, could spark terrorism.

U.N. Announces Iran To Lead Conference On Nuclear Disarmament

Iran, the leading state sponsor of terror, is scheduled to lead the United Nations Conference on Disarmament from March 18-29 and May 13-24, the U.N. announced last week.

Each year, the U.N. disarmament conference is presided over by one of the 65 member countries. Each country serves as conference president for four working weeks. The presidency rotates among the members in alphabetical order. Other countries to serve as conference presidents this year are India, Indonesia, Iraq, Ireland, and Israel.

The Conference on Disarmament is the U.N. body in charge of negotiating nuclear disarmament treaties and a slew of other weapons agreements. Concern over Iran’s nuclear ambitions has grown in recent decades, especially as the Iranian regime has grown more aggressive in the Middle East through a network of terror groups.

The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), a U.N. nuclear watchdog organization, warned last year that Tehran has likely stockpiled enough enriched Uranium to make several nuclear warheads. IAEA inspectors have for months attempted to gain access to Iran’s stockpiles of nuclear material for inspection, but Tehran has barred them. (Read more from “U.N.

Cult Leader Charged With Terrorism After Hundreds of Followers Starved Themselves to Death

Paul Nthenge Mackenzie, leader of the Good News International Church, and 94 of his associates were charged in Kenyan court on Thursday with terrorism-related crimes over the starvation deaths of 429 of his followers.

Mackenzie was accused of ordering his followers to starve themselves so they could enter Heaven before the destruction of the world. Mackenzie was arrested in April 2023 after the police were tipped off to the starvation cult by a human rights group called Haki Africa.

Many members of the Good News International Church were so determined to carry out Mackenzie’s order of suicide by starvation that they went into hiding in the Shakahola Forest of eastern Kenya, hiding from the police and military search teams. Some of the cultists taken into custody had to be physically forced to eat.

Mackenzie was arrested twice before the starvation horror was discovered, including for an incident in March 2023 in which two children’s parents murdered them through suffocation and starvation on Mackenzie’s orders.

Mackenzie told the authorities he was no longer the leader of a church and merely owned some farmland in Shakahola, but his half-starved followers kept turning up, along with dozens of corpses packed into shallow graves.

Biden Admin Only Partially Reverses Course After Delisting Houthis From Terrorist List

President Joe Biden’s administration designated the Iranian-backed Houthis as a Specially Designated Global Terrorist group this week, partially reversing course on their decision from 2021 when they removed the group from the Foreign Terrorist Organization list.

The designation comes after the Houthis have launched dozens of attacks against commercial vessels in the Red Sea over the last couple of months, disrupting global commerce.

“This designation seeks to promote accountability for the group’s terrorist activities,” the U.S. State Department said. “If the Houthis cease their attacks in the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden, the United States will reevaluate this designation.”

The administration stressed that it did not want the designation to impact the well-being of the Yemeni civilians who live in areas controlled by the Houthis.

“The U.S. government will conduct robust outreach to stakeholders, aid providers, and partners who are crucial to facilitating humanitarian assistance and the commercial import of critical commodities in Yemen,” the statement said. “The Department of the Treasury is also publishing licenses authorizing certain transactions related to the provision of food, medicine, and fuel, as well as personal remittances, telecommunications and mail, and port and airport operations on which the Yemeni people rely.”

Top Hamas Terrorist Reveals They Use Hospitals For Extensive Terror Activities: ‘They Are Cowards’

A top Hamas terrorist official who managed one of the hospitals inside Gaza told Israeli investigators this week that the organization uses hospitals for extensive terrorist activities and that its leaders are “cowards.”

Ahmad Mohammad Hassan al-Kahlout, manager of the “Kamel Adnan” Hospital, told investigators that he joined the Hamas terrorist organization in 2010. His rank in the terrorist organization was the equivalent of a brigadier general.

He said that Hamas senior officials “coordinate” using hospitals to hide terrorist activities and that they have rooms in the facilities that they hide in.

“They stayed there 10 days and then they changed places to a different place and then they left the hospital,” he said.

He said that Hamas illegally uses hospitals because they are “a safe place” that “won’t be targeted” by Israeli airstrikes. (Read more from “Top Hamas Terrorist Reveals They Use Hospitals For Extensive Terror Activities: ‘They Are Cowards’” HERE)

Senator: Biden’s Border Crisis Has Me ‘More Worried About a 9/11’ Attack Than Ever Before

Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) said during an interview over the weekend that the conditions on the U.S. southern border have him more worried about the potential for terrorist attacks similar to 9/11 happening on U.S. soil than at any other point since the attacks happened more than two decades ago.

Graham made the remarks during a Sunday interview with Kristen Welker on NBC’s “Meet The Press” while discussing U.S. Senate negotiations with the White House on a border package.

Graham said that he did not believe a deal would be reached by the end of the year and that he expects talks to continue into the new year.

“The White House got engaged five days ago,” he said. “They sent over a supplemental with border security provisions that did nothing to change policy. We’ve been talking to them since September. Five days ago, they finally sat at the table. … The bottom line here is, we feel like we’re being jammed. We’re not anywhere close to a deal. It’ll go into next year.”

FBI Director Warns of Heightened Terrorism Threat on U.S. Soil Amid Israel-Hamas War (VIDEO)

FBI Director Christopher Wray issued a stark warning before Congress, highlighting the increased risk of terrorist attacks in the United States amidst the ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict. Wray expressed concerns about the potential exploitation of the situation by various terrorist organizations. The director specifically cited Hezbollah’s support for Hamas, Al Qaeda’s explicit call to attack the U.S., and ISIS urging its followers to target Jewish communities.

The urgency of the situation was emphasized during a House Homeland Security Committee hearing titled “Worldwide Threats to the Homeland.” Wray, along with Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas and National Counterterrorism Center Director Christine Abizaid, testified about the evolving threats faced by the United States.

Wray pointed out the heightened risk posed by individuals or small groups drawing inspiration from the Middle East conflict to carry out attacks within the country. The concerns extended beyond lone actors, with the FBI keeping a vigilant eye on foreign terrorist organizations, particularly Hamas. The director noted ongoing investigations into individuals affiliated with Hamas, underlining the evolving nature of the threat.

Key statements were made during the hearing, including Wray’s assertion that this is one of the most dangerous times in U.S. history. The border crisis, according to Rep. Mark Green, chairman of the committee, was presented as a contributing factor to the heightened threat level. Wray, responding to questions, acknowledged encounters with individuals on the terrorist watchlist at the southern border, adding complexity to the security situation.

Rep. August Pfluger, R-Texas, pressed Wray and Mayorkas on the potential vulnerabilities arising from the current border situation. With 169 encounters with individuals on the terrorist watchlist in fiscal year 2023, concerns were raised about the adequacy of detention policies.

Brain Rot: Young Americans Go Viral on China’s TikTok Spreading Ideas of Osama Bin Laden (VIDEO)

Young Americans have been going viral on the Chinese app TikTok sympathizing with Osama bin Laden and recirculating his 2002 letter in which the terrorist leader tries to justify the mass murder of Americans on September 11, 2001.

Osama bin Laden’s “Letter to America” went viral on China’s TikTok this week among a new generation whose members were either born after September 11, 2001, or were not old enough to remember the terrorist attacks on U.S. soil.

Amid the public debate on the Israel-Hamas war, young people are defending bin Laden for his opposition to America’s support for Israel. Videos on the topic have already garnered at least 14 million views.

Revealed: Big Name in Congress a Member of ‘Secret’ Anti-Israel Facebook Group

U.S. Rep. Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich., has not hidden her hatred for Israel. . .

Now an investigation by Fox News Digital has revealed she is a member of a “secret” Facebook group that glorifies the Hamas terrorists.

“Rep. Rashida Tlaib is part of a secret social media group in which its members have glamorized Hamas in its war battle with Israel after the terror group attacked and killed hundreds of innocent Israeli civilians last month,” the report said.

Tlaib’s membership is with the Palestinian American Congress group on Facebook.

It is secret in that it is hidden from non-members and cannot be located on the platform’s search engine. (Read more from “Revealed: Big Name in Congress a Member of ‘Secret’ Anti-Israel Facebook Group” HERE)

Elite Universities That Are Hotbeds For Pro-Hamas Activism Got Billions In Federal Grants, Tax Benefits

Elite universities across the U.S. received over $33 billion in grants and contracts from the federal government since 2018, according to OpenTheBooks.

Ten elite universities with large endowments have taken billions of federal tax dollars, according to a new report from OpenTheBooks. The collective endowments of these universities grew from $172.2 billion in 2018 to $237 billion by the end of 2022, and the endowments reaped a collective $12 billion in special tax treatment benefits during that time frame.

“With the U.S. taxpayer subsidies, tax-breaks and federal payments into these ten elite universities pushing $7 billion per year, it’s time to revisit the definition of a public charity. Collectively, these schools have gamed the tax code for vast institutional enrichment,” Adam Andrzejewski, CEO and founder of OpenTheBooks, told the Daily Caller News Foundation.

Stanford University, Columbia University, University of Pennsylvania, Yale University and Harvard University took nearly $7 billion, $5.9 billion, $3.7 billion, $3.5 billion, $3.3 billion in federal grants and contracts from 2018 to 2022, respectively, according to OpenTheBooks. Princeton University, Brown University and Dartmouth College took nearly $1.8 billion, $1.2 billion, and $775 million, respectively.

Northwestern University and Cornell University took nearly $3 billion, according to the report. (Read more from “Elite Universities That Are Hotbeds For Pro-Hamas Activism Got Billions In Federal Grants, Tax Benefits” HERE)
