The FDA says it needs 55 years to release all of Pfizer’s COVID vaccine data  

By Andrea Widburg, AT

Public Health and Medical Professionals for Transparency (PHMPT), as its name suggests, is a medical transparency group that filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request with the FDA for documents tied to its approval of Pfizer’s BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine. The FDA went to court and informed the judge that it was totally willing to comply with the request—except that it will take almost 55 years to do so.

The Epoch Times reports that the FDA claims to possess 329,000 pages of documents responsive to PHMPT’s request. Further, the FDA posits that reviewing the documents and redacting exempt material will allow it to produce, at most, around 500 pages per month. At that rate, it will take 658 months—or 54 and 3/4 years to complete the requested production.

New Motion In J6 Case: Detainees Subjected to Medical Apartheid  

By Wendi Strauch Mahoney, UNCOVERDC   

AFP Photo/Hindustan Times

A new 47-page motion filed on Tuesday by Jan. 6 detainees segregated in a dedicated wing called the D.C. Central Treatment Facility (CTF) alleges J6 are being cruelly penalized because of their vaccination status. Being treated differently because of vaccine status, says the complaint, amounts to “medical apartheid.” This motion discusses the many conflicting lines drawn in the sand during the “pandemic.” It serves as a microcosm of the confusing, lived experience of so many in this country over the last two years.

Terror in the Capitol Tunnel  

T. Belman. The violent treatment of the peaceful protesters was intended to provoke and violent response and to instill fear.. What the Democrats and Biden administration did to them then and now wreaks of a police state.

The D.C. Medical Examiner’s Office concluded Rosanne Boyland died of a drug overdose but that autopsy result is highly suspicious.

In 2018, after a local news crew filmed Ryan Nichols rescuing dogs abandoned by their owners after Hurricane Florence, the former Marine appeared on the “Ellen DeGeneres Show.” Not only did DeGeneres commend Nichols’ longtime work as a search-and-rescue volunteer, she donated $25,000 to the Humane Society in his name and gave Ryan and his wife, Bonnie, a $10,000 check to pay for the honeymoon they had missed the year before so Ryan could assist rescue efforts in the wake of Hurricane Harvey.

When Will Israel Regain her Honor?  

By Victor Rosenthal

In 1981, Menachem Begin presented what he thought were the most important lessons to be learned from the Holocaust. Many people remember the first lesson, “if an enemy of our people says he seeks to destroy us, believe him,” and Israel’s leaders seem to have taken this to heart, with respect to Iran at least. But what about Begin’s fourth lesson?

Jewish dignity and honor must be protected in all circumstances. The seeds of Jewish destruction lie in passively enabling the enemy to humiliate us. Only when the enemy succeeds in turning the spirit of the Jew into dust and ashes in life, can he turn the Jew into dust and ashes in death. During the Holocaust it was after the enemy had humiliated the Jews, trampled them underfoot, divided them, deceived them, afflicted them, drove brother against brother, only then could he lead them, almost without resistance, to the gates of Auschwitz. Therefore, at all times and whatever the cost, safeguard the dignity and honor of the Jewish people.

Shaked: Bringing more countries into Abraham Accords will require US incentives  

Interior minister insists no Israeli gestures to Palestinians necessary to broaden normalization deals, says Israel’s policy on settlements is to agree to disagree with Washington

WASHINGTON — Interior Minister Ayelet Shaked said Wednesday that to expand Israel’s normalization agreements with Arab countries that began last year, the United States will have to offer its own incentives to candidate countries.

And while Jerusalem had to forgo plans to annex large parts of the West Bank to set the accords in motion, no further Israeli gestures to the Palestinians will be necessary in order to build on the existing normalization agreements, the senior minister argued.

INTO THE FRAY: The blight Bennett brought  

By Martin Sherman

It will take a long time—probably decades—to repair the damage, which the mendacious machinations used to ensconce the current coalition, have wrought, not only on the fabric of Israel’s body-politic, but on the very essence of the Zionist endeavor itself…if such repair is at all feasible. Ever!

Whoever commits a fraud is guilty not only of the injury to him who he deceives, but of the diminution of that confidence which constitutes…the existence of society—Samuel Johnson, renowned English poet, playwright, essayist, (1709-1784).

Bennett knows that if he goes to a military conflict, the coalition will fall apart because Meretz and Ra’am won’t agree to it. The presence of Meretz and Ra’am limits the sharpness of any military decision…The moment the government makes a decision about something military, there will be a danger to the coalition—Meretz MK Ghaida Rinawie-Zoabi, cited in The Jerusalem Post, August 8, 2021.

Ignoring House anti-Semitism  

The House simply has no time to confront or even mention the Squad’s ongoing antisemitism when they have to deal with Paul Gosar. Op-ed.

By Bruce S. Ticker , Nov 19 , 2021

House of Representatives

House of Representatives

We cannot argue with Nancy Pelosi: “When a member uses his or her national platform to encourage violence, tragically, people listen.”

Whenever her Democratic colleagues in the U.S. House of Representatives bash Israel and by association American Jews, they are inciting violence throughout the United States, as it trembles under the crush of anti-Semitism.

The Speaker of the House was addressing the sins of Rep. Paul Gosar.

‘Antisemitism is an enduring evil’: Britain to recognize Hamas as terrorist organization  

20 years after blacklisting part of Hamas, UK poised to declare the entire organization a banned terror group.

Arutz Sheva StaffNov 19 , 2021 9:24 AM

The UK is poised to designate Hamas as a terrorist organization, two decades after Britain blacklisted part of Hamas.

British Home Secretary Priti Patel is set to announce Friday that the entirety of Hamas will be proscribed as a terrorist organization in her first keynote speech on security in Washington DC.

Hamas’ military wing, the Izz ad-Din al-Qassam Brigades, has been recognized as a terrorist organization in the United Kingdom since 2001.

A Death-to-Israel Terror Bromance  

Sunni Hamas and Shi’a Iran join forces to encircle the Jewish state.

By Hugh Fitzgerald, JIHAD WATCH

Sunnis and Shi’a have been going at it, intermittently – sometimes less and sometimes more, depending on the place and the time — for at least 1,300 years. The last few decades have been a period of “more,” with a distinct upsurge in Sunni-Shia conflicts, partly a result of a resurgent and aggressive Shi’ite theocracy in Iran, and partly because the rise in fanaticism among Sunni Muslims has led to more attacks, not just on Infidels, but on Shi’a – whom Sunni takfiris declare not to be true Muslims — as well.

Jacob Chansley, the “QAnon Shaman,” Sentenced to 41 Months in Jail  

By  November 17, 2021

D.C. District Court Judge Royce Lamberth today sentenced Jacob Chansley, the so-called “QAnon shaman,” to serve 41 months in prison for his role in the January 6 protest at the Capitol building.

Chansley, 34, pleaded guilty to one count of obstruction of an official proceeding, a felony applied to at least 220 Capitol protester cases. The post-Enron law was not intended to be used against  political protesters; this is the first time the U.S. Department of Justice has charged political protesters with the felony count, which is publishable by up to 20 years in prison.

The anti-US ripple effect  

Ignoring the Iranian ripple effects aimed at the US is bound to undermine American homeland and national security.. Op-ed.

“The assumption that accommodating the Ayatollahs could entice them to waive their fanatic vision and to embrace peaceful-coexistence sacrifices reality on the altar of wishful-thinking.”

By Amb. (ret.) Yoram Ettinger, INN         , Nov 17 , 2021

The ripple effect theory

An underlying assumption behind any US agreement with Iran’s Ayatollahs is that the Ayatollahs would utilize the resulting financial and diplomatic bonanza for butter rather than guns.

Moreover, it is assumed that Iran’s Ayatollahs are amenable to good-faith negotiation and peaceful-coexistence.

Israel Isn’t Strong Enough to Attack Iran  

T. Belman. I am being interviewed on the Middle East Radio Forum on Saturday night which is to be broadcast from the US.  One of the topics to be discussed is whether Israel will attack Iran. Until doing my research I believed it was a no-brainer. After reading this article, I think otherwise. And this article doesn’t even factor in the damage Hezbollah can do to Israel in the event of such a war.

The Israeli government is ramping up its rhetoric, but political and military constraints are too great.

Not for the first time in recent memory, Israel wants the world to know it is ready and willing to militarily strike Iran—alone if it has to.

An Alarming Letter From January 6 Protester Nathan DeGrave, From His Jail Cell in Washington DC  

While BLM and Antifa Rioters who REALLY Destroyed Hundreds of Cities, Assaulted 700 Police Officers and Murdered Innocents Go FREE!…

 The allegations within the letter are alarming; however, they are supported by other detainees who have described similar conditions.

Dear fellow Americans:

I never thought I’d write a letter like this, but we’re living in very different times. This is my cry for help.

My name is Nathan DeGrave, and as a non violent participant at the Jan 6th rally, I’ve spent the last 9 months detained as a political prisoner in pod C2B at the DC Department of Corrections (DOC) otherwise known as DC’s Gitmo.
