Then blames Israel and demands Hamas protection. If it’s Tuesday, then it must be time for more cries of a fake famine in Gaza.

Pope Francis Again Maligns Israel for What He Calls Its ‘Cruelty’
Pope Francis has repeatedly defended Islam, claiming that “Islam is a religion of peace.” He has called on Muslims to proselytize for what he has described as the “peaceful religion of Islam,” and in his 2023 book Non Sei Solo: Sfide, Risposte, Speranze (“You Are Not Alone: Challenges, Answers, Hopes”), Francis asks Europeans to be more open to […]
After outcry, Walmart removes shirts glorifying slain jihad terror chiefs Sinwar and Nasrallah
If these t-shirts had glorified any terrorists or criminals who didn’t target Jews, do you think Walmart would have stocked them in the first place?

Syria: Patriarch John X calls for ‘a civil state in which everyone has the same rights and duties’
In issuing this call, Patriarch John X has indirectly rejected the idea of dhimmitude, the elements of Islamic law that institutionalize the subjugation of Christians as inferiors in the Islamic state. “ASIA/SYRIA – Patriarch Yohanna X and the new Syria: ‘We Christians are not “guests” in this land,’” Agenzia Fides, December 16, 2024: Damascus (Agenzia Fides) […]
UK: Man converts to Islam, plots mustard gas jihad massacre
Yet another convert to Islam somehow gets the crazy idea that his new religion calls for violence against unbelievers. Authorities remain resolutely incurious about this recurring phenomenon. “‘Islamic State supporter’ accused of plotting mustard gas terror attack,” Telegraph, December 23, 2024: An alleged Islamic State supporter allegedly plotted a terror attack using mustard gas, a […]
Hamas and the Gazans
Hamas has ruled Gaza since 2007, when its gunmen killed hundreds of Fatah members and drove the rest out of the Strip. It rules through torture and terror.

Vatican ambassador to Israel summoned by Israeli Foreign Ministry over pope’s anti-Israel Gaza comments
The pope’s rhetoric is dangerous in that it emboldens and encourages terrorists who systematically spread manipulative propaganda as they take aim at Israeli civilians. While Pope Francis is playing into Hamas’ hands, nothing is more disturbing and cruel than Hamas using Palestinian children and civilians as human shields in the way of jihad. The pope […]

The Still Point of the Turning World
Christmas reminds us of the certainties in a world of uncertainty. “At the still point of the turning world,” T. S. Eliot writes in “Burnt Norton.” That’s where Christmas is. “Except for the point, the still point,” he adds, “There would be no dance, and there is only the dance.” For Christians, Christmas is one […]

Netanyahu and the Road to Victory
Elliot Kaufman published in the Wall Street Journal on December 20 an interview he had just conducted with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. It’s a riveting read.

Islamic Republic of Pakistan: Christian woman accused of blasphemy for supposedly desecrating Qur’an verses
Shazia Younis admitted to the desecration, but there is every reason to believe that her confession was coerced. Only someone who was actively suicidal would do this deliberately in Pakistan.

Australian News Presenter Fired for Her Pro-Israel Views

Nigeria: Muslim cleric admits providing spiritual support to jihadis
“Bandits” is the Nigerian media’s euphemism for Islamic jihadis. Note that Alhaji Lambo Ilela claims below to have induced them to moderate their activities. But both he and the jihadis must be well aware that what the jihad groups do in Nigeria is sanctioned in the Qur’an and Sunnah. So why would he try to […]
Israel asks US to convene UN emergency session to condemn Houthi attacks and Iran’s support for their violence
The brilliant move by Israel puts the notoriously anti-Israel UN in an awkward position. In 2023, the U.S. Ambassador to the UN, Linda Thomas-Greenfield, “previewed the United States’ priorities for the 78th session of the UN General Assembly and, along with Ambassador Lipstadt, highlighted the United States’ efforts to counter antisemitism and anti-Israel bias at the […]
