“Israel Apartheid” panel at academic conference to feature just one side  

By Moshe Phillips

The most prestigious organization of historians in the United States will be hosting a panel at its upcoming conference called “Debating Israel and Apartheid”—but all of the panelists will be taking the same side in the debate. Can you guess which side?

The venerable American Historical Association, founded in 1884, is the premier professional association for American historians in all fields. Its next annual conference will be held in January 2022 in New Orleans.

A panel scheduled to be held on January 8 is called “Debating Israel and Apartheid.” With that kind of title, one would assume that the panelists will be expressing a variety of viewpoints. Certainly that’s what any serious academic panel should have. But don’t count on it in this case. It’s pretty obvious from the panelists’ track records that they will all be pointing an accusing finger at the Jewish state.

Fear is Deadlier Than Viruses  

Perhaps love and hate aren’t the two most powerful emotions after all.

By Dennis Prager, FPM

The most famous words of Franklin Roosevelt, America’s longest-serving president, were, “The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.”

One wonders if any world leader would or could say that today. We live in the Age of Fear.

All of my life, I thought love and hate were the two most powerful human emotions.

But owing to recent events, I have changed my mind.

The Great Rebellion: Is Iran falling apart?  

Half of the Iranian population is composed of different ethnic groups which are repulsed by the cruel regime running the country. An uprising that is planned there may change the face of the entire Middle East. Opinion.

By Dr. Mordechai Kedar, INN     Nov 28 , 2021Iran protest
Iran protest

The Israeli and Western reference to Iran focuses on three main issues: Iran’s military nuclear project and rockets; expansion of Iranian presence (direct and indirect) in Arab states, mainly Syria, Lebanon, and Yemen; and the Ayatollahs’ regime. Occasionally, there is an allusion to the Iranian economic situation and its COVID-19 pandemic crisis. Rarely, do political, military or editorial elements address the Iranian population which in general is referred to as “The Iranian People.”

That is precisely the point. There is no such People. What exists in Iran is a population half of which is Persian, and the other half a large number of “non-Persian peoples”: Azeris (in the northern part, south of Azerbaijan), Arabs (in Al-Ahwaz overlooking the Persian Gulf east and north), Kurds (north-west), Turkmans (north-east) and many other smaller groups: Lurs, Kashkais, Caspians, Mazendaranis, Gilyaks and others.

A Tale of Two Cities: Kenosha vs. Waukesha   

The media’s blatant lies amount to racial arson
By 

Both Wisconsin towns, Kenosha, and Waukesha, about 50 miles apart by car, were the recent sites of multiple deaths. The violence in both made national news. Yet in contradictory ways both reflected the common themes of America’s current legal, media, and societal corruption.

The relevant public prosecutors in both were in the news for alleged ideological bias. Specifically, they habitually calibrated the charging, indicting, and trying (or not) of defendants through ideological lenses and community pressure rather than on the basis of the facts and the law.

Kyle Rittenhouse was a 17-year-old armed youth who volunteered to protect business properties at the height of the August 2020 arson, riots, and looting in Kenosha. He was pursued and attacked by three members from a larger group who chased the armed youth, presumably either to disarm, injure, or kill him—or perhaps all three.

Hanukkah: When the Jews Chose Life  

BY David P. Goldman, PJ MEDIA        NOV 28, 2021 3:01 PM ET

(Maurizio Gambarini/dpa via AP)
Tonight begin the eight days of Hanukkah, the Festival of Lights that commemorates the purification of the Temple at Jerusalem after the expulsion of the Antiochus IV Epiphanes’ occupying army in 167 B.C.E. It was as much as a Jewish civil war as a war of liberation; large parts of the Jewish elite embraced Greek occupation and Greek culture. The Jewish Hellenizers still have their defenders, for example, New York Times columnist David Brooks, who a dozen years ago wrote:

At its best, Hellenistic culture emphasized the power of reason and the importance of individual conscience . . . . It raised living standards, especially in places like Jerusalem. Many Jewish reformers embraced these improvements. The Greeks had one central idea: their aspirations to create an advanced universal culture. And the Jews had their own central idea: the idea of one true God. The reformers wanted to merge these two ideas.

Biden’s Chanukah Gift to Israel is Seizing Jerusalem for the Islamic Terrorists Killing Jews  

Biden’s ban on Jewish prayer and life in Jerusalem is a reminder of Chanukah’s resistance to religious tyranny.

By Daniel Greenfield, FPM        

Some 2,200 years ago, Antiochus IV set up an idol in the Jewish Temple in Jerusalem and had pigs sacrificed on the altar. Joseph Biden II has his own plans for a pig and an altar in Jerusalem.

Bidentiochus’ Chanukah gift to the Jews is an Islamic terrorist consulate in Jerusalem.

Like Antiochus, the Biden administration has spent the past few months alternately terrorizing and bribing Israelis to accept its plans for a consulate to the terrorists killing Jews in Jerusalem.

Vaccinate children? Not mine  

By James T. Moodey, AM THINKER

What will happen to our children when we mass vaccinate them? Since the vaccine side effect of myocarditis is more prevalent in children, will the low dose be enough to mitigate, or will they die at a higher rate? What else can go wrong? Here is one idea.

Europe’s version of our VAERS system for doctors to report drug-induced maladies is EudraVigilance.

On Nov. 13, EudraVigilance reported 30,551 mRNA-vaccine deaths, after reporting 24,526 on Sept. 11. That is 6,025 deaths in little over a month.nce the booster shots began.

The Outrageous Censorship of Nadia Murad  

by Tarek Fatah, TORONTO SUN November 24, 2021


Nobel Peace Prize Laureate Nadia Murad

When the Toronto District School Board (TDSB) initially cancelled an event with Nobel Peace Prize Laureate Nadia Murad, the reason given was that such an event could foster Islamophobia.

Murad was invited to speak at a book club founded by Tanya Lee, where teen girls from various secondary schools hear from female authors.

But TDSB superintendent Helen Fisher expressed concern over Murad’s book, The Last Girl: My Story of Captivity, and My Fight Against the Islamic State, telling the book club organizer that students should not participate in an event with the author scheduled for February.

At least 69 athletes collapse in one month, many dead  

FREE WEST MEDIA

Below is a shockingly long list of athletes who collapsed last month from heart problems or circulatory disorders such as strokes. Unfortunately, some of these incidents were fatal for the often very young athletes. The numbers are alarming, especially in view of mandatory Covid shots.

(1) At the encounter between PGS E Bosico and Romeo Menti (Allerona Scalo) in Umbria/Italy on October 2, 2021 , a “young player” from the visiting team collapses without any external influence and is transported to the hospital.

(2) Martin Lefèvre (16) from FC Agneaux collapses without any previous illnesses with a stroke during the game against FC Saint-Lô Manche on October 2, 2021. He is paralyzed on one side and has no ability to speak.

Breaking! New Russian Air Defense System Shocked the Israeli Army!  

DEEP JOURNAL
The Russian Ministry of Defense announced that 10 of the 12 missiles fired from 6 F-16 fighter jets were destroyed by Russia’s Buk-M2E and Panstir-S systems.

We’ll go over all the details of the airstrikes shortly.

It is clear that these statements do not reflect the truth. Because Israel carried out only 1 of its last 5 attacks with surface-to-ground missiles and all other attacks with warplanes. It is clear that Russia, which did not prevent other attacks, prevented this attack from another reason. We think that this reason will emerge in the coming days.

The Russian military says Syrian air defense units managed to intercept and bring down most of the missiles launched by Israeli military aircraft at various targets in the Arab country’s central province of Homs, destroying ten out of the 12 projectiles.
Syrian air defences attempted to intercept the attack above the city of Homs. “An Israeli air aggression targeted parts of the central region, and the air defences are responding,” state-run news agency SANA said.

Chanukah Guide for the Perplexed 2021  

By Ambassador (ret.) Yoram Ettinger, “Second Thought: a US-Israel Initiative”         November 23, 2021,

Jewish national liberation holiday.  Chanukah (evening of November 28 – December 6, 2021) is the only Jewish holiday that commemorates an ancient national liberation struggle in the Land of Israel, unlike the national liberation holidays, Passover, Sukkot/Tabernacles and Shavu’ot/Pentecost, which commemorate the Exodus from slavery in Egypt to liberation in the land of Israel, and unlike Purim, which commemorates liberation from a Persian attempt to annihilate the Jewish people.

Historical context  Chanukah is narrated in the four Books of the Maccabees, The Scroll of Antiochus and The Wars of the Jews.

In 323 BCE, the Greek Empire was split into three independent and rival mini-empires (Greece-Seleucid/Syria-Ptolemaic/Egypt), following the death of Alexander the Great (Alexander III) who held Judaism in high esteem.

Orwell’s favorite lobby: J Street  

T. Belman.  J Street is, in reality, a mouthpiece for the Palestinians and the New Israel Fund is, in reality, their financier.

Palestinians are blameless paragons of virtue and democratic values who pose no threat to Israel. If those stiff-necked Jews would just end the “occupation” …Opinion.

New Israel Fund and J Street logoss

(JNS) The terms pro-Israel and pro-peace seem to have a straightforward meaning, but as a slogan for J Street, they have become examples of doublespeak. On Nov. 21, for example, while news alerts from around the world reported that a Hamas terrorist opened fire with an automatic weapon in Jerusalem’s Old City, killing one Israeli and wounding four others, J Street was sending out a fundraising appeal.

Did it denounce this horrific attack?

Did it express sympathy for the Israeli victims?
