Savages
Civilization and savagery are fundamentally at war. We’re in a war between savages and civilization. Everything else is a detail. Some of us woke up to that war when planes crashed into skyscrapers. Others when we saw beheading videos spread across social media. What we saw in Israel, Hamas terrorists raping, mutilating and defiling corpses, […]

Austrian government paid ‘Palestinians’ millions, supposedly for courses on gender and dance
Does the Austrian government really think this money went for gender and dance courses and the rest? Don’t they realize that it was almost certainly diverted for jihad? “Gender and dance courses: What we paid the Palestinians – the million-euro list!,” translated from “Gender- und Tanzkurse: Was wir den Palästinensern zahlten – die Millionen-Liste!,” by […]

As the death toll from Saturday’s jihad massacres in Israel continues to mount, the world looks on […]
Blinken Joins Hamas Ally in Calling for ‘Ceasefire,’ Then Quietly Deletes Tweet
[Editor’s note: Blinken later took down this tweet, but why did he put it up in the first place?] Despicable even for this administration. It didn’t take long. On October 8th, Secretary of State Blinken tweeted that, “Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan and I spoke further on Hamas’ terrorist attacks on Israel. I encouraged Türkiye’s […]

Pro-Israel Provision In Foreign Appropriations Bill Pass Largely Unremarked
Even before the present Hamas war against Israel began, during all the sound and fury over Kevin McCarthy’s travails, and whether Steve Scalise or Jim Jordan would succeed him, that dominated Washington news, the House passed a foreign appropriations bill. Two of its measures were particularly welcome in Israel. More on those provisions can be […]
