Why the ADL Abandoned Antisemitism and Went Woke  

By Daniel Greenfield, 

In 2018, the ADL announced that it was no longer in the ‘kindness’ business. “Forget Kindness. Schools Need to Foster Social Justice,” Jinnie Spiegler, the ADL’s curriculum director, barked.

By three years old, Spiegler claimed white children in America are already racists.
Spiegler, an obsessive leftist with seemingly no Jewish interests, whose Twitter account promotes anti-Semitic leftists like AOC, Cori Bush, and Ilhan Omar, has a singular obsession.

The real reason for the Islamist war against Israel and the West  

Lapid’s support for a Palestinian state compounds a disastrous error.

By Melanie Phillips       

(JNS) As soon as it emerged that Israel’s acting Prime Minister Yair Lapid would tell the United Nations General Assembly this week that he supports the establishment of a Palestinian state, he was engulfed by outrage, incredulity and dismay.

Critics charged that he was endangering Israel’s security by seeking to establish a terrorist state on land to which Israel is lawfully entitled. This, they said, would incentivize yet more Palestinian terrorism.

The Dismissal of Kari Lake’s Election Lawsuit Shows Voter Disenfranchisement No Longer Matters  

L. Goudsmit. Lawfare is a particularly egregious crime, because it uses the legal system to destroy the legal system. Judge Thompson deliberately raised the metric for proof in Kari Lake’s election lawsuit to include intent, knowing he would rely on this maneuver to dismiss her case. The appearance of justice is not justice, it is a humanitarian hoax. It is the same deceit used by political medicine to dupe the public about Covid vaccines that are not vaccines. Changing the legal definition of a vaccine does not make an experimental mRNA jab a bone fide vaccine. The jab still does not prevent transmission or provide immunity. Changing the rules of evidence does not legitimize election fraud in Maricopa County, it makes a mockery of the legal system. Kari Lake won the election, and the mRNA jabs are not vaccines. Duping the trusting public through lawfare is the preferred weapon of the radical leftist Democrats, and their globalist handlers. There is no justice in rigged elections, and there is no public health in political medicine. There is only the tyranny of appearances. “Space is no longer the final frontier––reality is.”

Peg Tierney.  There has been much commentary on the trial and the judge’s ruling – but the best one I’ve seen so far is from Rachel Alexander who is an Arizona journalist, election lawyer & former prosecutor. SHE WAS LIMITED TO 1000 WORDS.

By Rachel Alexander, TOWNHALL

The trial court judge in Kari Lake’s election lawsuit predictably threw out her case on Saturday, putting on a sham trial that on the surface looked fair to the general public that doesn’t know any better, but to legal minds was a travesty of justice. Maricopa County Superior Court Judge Peter Thompson only gave her two days for a trial and issued his ruling immediately afterwards, even though he could have taken several days, and it was one of the biggest, most important cases in the country. Legal experts believe his decision was ghostwritten, they suspect top left-wing attorneys like Marc Elias emailed him what to say.

Smotrich Saves Israel from Istanbul Convention Trojan Horse  

By David Israel, JEWISH PRESS    Dec 26, 2022

A clause in Likud’s coalition agreement with the Religious Zionism Party led by Bezalel Smotrich states that “the government will not approve Israel’s accession to the Istanbul Treaty,” Walla reported Sunday.

The Council of Europe Convention on preventing and combating violence against women and domestic violence which was signed in Istanbul on May 11, 2011, is a human rights treaty against violence against women and domestic violence. On March 20, 2021, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan announced his country’s withdrawal from the convention – before Turkey, like Israel, had stepped into what amounts to a trap intended to force countries that offer temporary shelter to refugees from conflict areas to accept these refugees permanently.

Forging a Russian-Iranian Military Alliance  

REAL POLITICK

By Mark Sleboda Dec 14

It seems that the US’s aggressive policies of economic warfare, provocative military containment, and covert regime change ops against any and all states that refuse to surrender their sovereignty and independence to the Hegemon, has resulted in more blowback than pushing Russia and China into a strong defensive strategic partnership. US officials are now panicking about a rapidly solidifying similar partnership between Russian and Iran. Indeed the 3 states now all have a tri-partite strategic partnership with each other.>

Why ‘Faith-based’ Discrimination May Soon Be Legal in Israel  

T. Belman. This means that religious beliefs supersede group rights when there is alternative. That’s the way it should be.

The incoming far-right government says private businesses will be allowed to deny their product or service as long as it ‘is not unique, and a similar substitute can be obtained at a similar price in geographic proximity’

By Allison Kaplan Sommer, HAARETZ

The idea of “religious liberty” is a controversial issue in American politics, climaxing in the 2017 Supreme Court decision letting a Colorado baker refuse to sell wedding cakes to same-sex couples on the basis of his religious beliefs.

The debate migrated to Israel over the weekend following the revelation that the Likud party’s agreements with two coalition partners – United Torah Judaism and Religious Zionism – include a commitment that would let business owners refuse service on the basis of religion. This amendment of the country’s antidiscrimination law was widely interpreted as a license to refuse services to LGBTQ people and other groups.

Report: Russia to supply Iran with dozens of Sukhoi Su-35 fighter jets  

T. Belman. I don’t trust this report. The only sources mentioned are the CIA and Ukraine. Even if it happens the fighters only have a range of 3600 km whereas the return trip to Israel and back is about the same. Israel has the means to shoot them down in transit so I imagine they will only be used for defense and they are no match for Israel’s F-35.

Intelligence cited by Channel 12 indicates Iranian pilots are already training with Russian-made jets

Russia is preparing to provide Iran with Sukhoi Su-35 fighter jets in the near future, according to a Saturday report citing Western intelligence officials.

The report by Channel 12 said the deal could include as many as 24 jets that were originally intended for Egypt, in a deal that the United States thwarted.

Patrick Byrne discusses the Kari Lake trial and decision  

Patrick Byrne discusses the testimony regarding the machines and the changed testimony on day 2:

Discussion: Kari Lake’s Temporary Setback in Maricopa from Judge Peter Thompson
20 min video

This one lays it all bare, folks.

In Maricopa on Election Day this year, in numerous polling locations across Maricopa, the print-on-demand printers were printing on the correct 20? ballot paper, but taking the 20? ballot image and shrinking it down to 19? before printing. The difference is imperceptible to the human eye. However, when fed into a tabulator, the difference causes the ballot to be rejected, which lets the poll workers innocently and honestly say, “Something has gone wrong, the tabulators do not seem to be reading your ballot, just leave it in Drawer #3.”

America’s first Jewish President  

HOW PROPAGANDIZED AND HOODWINKED JEWISH LIBERALS – AN EXTINCTION SPECIES – GOT THE SHAFT FROM DEMOCRATS

In their Trump Derangement daily messaging manufactured by the Democrat Party through their media, it’s been already fashionable for generations of Liberal Jews who fancy themselves “progressives,” to have attached themselves to the Democrat caboose.

These True Believers who watched CNN 24/7 drank the Cool Aid. Even to the point that they believed wholesale the Russia Collusion Hoax, coupled to the message that “Obama was America’s First Jewish President.”

Qatar’s Islamization of the World Cup Is a Failure  

BY 

While the soccer matches in Doha were exciting, especially the final with Argentinian Lionel Messi rising to the occasion — his last — in other ways Qatar’s big moment on the world stage was a devastating failure. Both Qatar’s attempts at proselytizing for Islam, and its failure to provide, as promised, world-class facilities for visitors, were distinctly off-putting. More on this can be found here: “Qatari Islamization of the World Cup Backfires,” by Hany Ghoraba, Algemeiner, December 22, 2022:

How Big Tech and the FBI Hacked the Constitution  

By Daniel Greenfield, FPM         24 Dec

Elvis Ming Chan, the FBI Assistant Special Agent in Charge at the center of the TwitterFiles scandal, had started out as an engineer at NEC: a Japanese computer company. The son of Chinese immigrants who was raised in Seattle, near the hub of Big Tech, Chan describes a tech industry where going into national security was always a backdoor option.

“One of my buddies who I worked with at the company I was at, his game plan was always to join The Bureau,” Chan revealed in an interview. “And he got in and he’s calling me from the FBI academy in Quantico, which you were able to visit with me. Maybe we’ll talk about that later. But he said, ‘Elvis,’ he’s calling me on the phone, he’s like, ‘you would love this. We’re shooting guns. We’re kicking down doors. I’m learning about the constitution. This is awesome.’”

Former Mossad intel chief says Israel must prepare for an imminent attack on Iran  

By TAL SCHNEIDER, ToI

Zohar Palti, the former head of the Defense Ministry’s political-military bureau and former intelligence director in the Mossad, says that Iran is days to weeks away from enriching uranium to the 90% military-grade level.

Iran, he says “is at a more advanced level than I can ever remember when it comes to uranium enrichment,” Palti says. “They are days or weeks away from enriching uranium to 90%, which is military-grade.” Such a level “does not mean they can immediately build a nuclear weapon… but it’s very bad, and we’ve never been closer to it.”

VERY GOOD NEWS ISRAEL  

VGNI In this latest positive newsletter, cancer and cystic fibrosis patients on trials of the latest Israeli treatments will hope for a brighter future. A breakthrough Israeli therapy uses UV light to release medication into the body. And two Israeli AI systems will provide virtual “warning lights” to alert doctors and patients to life-threatening conditions.

The light is certainly shining on Israeli relations with Arab countries. Israel attended the Arab cybersecurity conference, played Israel’s National Anthem in Abu Dhabi, and even lit Hanukkah candles in Qatar.

Israeli technology news includes a super-efficient heat engine from the aptly named Luminescent Solar Power; solar panels inside greenhouses to help grow food crops; and even drones with flashing lights to save bats from flying into wind turbines. Europe has certainly seen the light, purchasing Israeli systems for wastewater treatment in France, reducing food waste in the Netherlands, and saving lives on roads in Germany.

Finally Israeli children unearthed a 2000-year-old lamp; archeologists have shed light on the reign of the Jewish King Hezekiah in the Land of Judah 2,700 years ago; 100 rescued Ukrainians alighted at Ben Gurion International airport; and the Jewish Festival of Lights has brought more Hanukkah miracles to our times.

In the 25th Dec 22 edition of Israel’s good news, the highlights include:
