Party to probe shocking claim by “senior” member who said: “Nobody wants to talk about it, but that’s the main factor (we are not winning Muslim support in Batley and Spen).”
Labour deputy leader Angela Rayner has promised an investigation into comments attributed to a party official after they were criticised as “patently vile” Islamophobia.

The new June 11, 2021, data dump on VAERS is stale, by design, I believe. Personally, I’ve believed for months the CDC has been deliberately dragging their feet getting the data posted to VAERS for political reasons. Weeks behind but there’s more to what’s been going on than we knew.
June 11th dead: 5,993. But, are those the real numbers of dead Americans? It’s estimated that only 10% of ‘events’ get reported. Adverse reactions: 358,379. You can see the posting of all the categories plus all the reports by ID number here.
T. Belman. This is what is wrong with allowing the DoD to rule the territories. Their decision is based on security and the Geneva Convention. If the government extended sovereignty to these lands, the Government would be in charge and their decision would be based on the rule of law.
But even then the High Court would put the matter in the hands of the police as they do on the Temple Mount when security is at stake..
Finally, as a matter of law, it must be applied equally or the Jewish settlers could claim discrimination.
Military says Evyatar was established unlawfully and ‘undermines the IDF’s ability to maintain security in the area’; 4 Palestinians have died in clashes nearby in recent weeks

The Israel Defense Forces has rejected out of hand an appeal against the planned evacuation and demolition of an illegal West Bank outpost.
Settlers of the Evyatar outpost had hoped to stop the planned evacuation, but the military denied their request on Sunday. “The Evyatar outpost was established illegally. Everything was done in complete violation of the law and without any proprietary or planning agreements,” the IDF Central Command wrote.

For the past year and a half of COVID, we have been told by those supposedly in the know, to “follow the science.” Those who question the science are at best called names, like “deniers” or “racists”, and at worst, lose their jobs and reputations, and are banned from social media.
One gets an appreciation for what scientists of centuries ago endured as they questioned science dogma of the day such as the Earth being flat or the Sun revolving around Earth. Such censorship was attributed to the medieval scientific mindset centuries ago long before the enlightened age of Facebook, Twitter, and CNN.

T. Belman. This report garnered only a recommendation to deduct only 5% of money that goes to the Palestinians.
The report, completed in February, includes dozens of examples of encouragement of violence and demonization of Israel and of Jews.

Palestinian children learn Islamic lessons on summer vacation as COVID-19 restrictions ease in Gaza.
The European Union has released its report on Palestinian Authority textbooks four months after its completion, showing instances of antisemitism and incitement to violence.
Friday’s release of the report – excerpts from which were first published in The Jerusalem Post earlier this month – sparked condemnations across the European Parliament.

“Defund the police” has become a popular phrase among leftist activists, gaining momentum during a rash of Black Lives Matter protests and riots last summer following the police-custody death of George Floyd in Minneapolis in May 2020.
As news of these protests spread through the media, local governments across the country quickly started acquiescing to the demand. Cities such as New York and Los Angeles significantly cut funding for their police departments, while Minneapolis City Council went further, introducing a measure to try and outright abolish and replace its police department.
Unlike NATO, South Korea and Japan, Israel has extended the strategic arm of the US with no need for US military personnel. Op-ed.

Pre-1967In 1948, the CIA opposed the reestablishment of the Jewish State, contending that it would be a feeble entity, unable to withstand an all-out Arab war – which would yield a second Holocaust in less than ten years – fully dependent on US soldiers for its survival, jeopardize US ties with the Arab World, imperil US access to Persian Gulf oil, and probably join the Soviet Bloc.
The State Department and the Pentagon, along with the New York Times and Washington Post, seconded the CIA assessment.
On the other hand, Clark Clifford, President Truman’s trusted advisor, who dedicated much time to studying the track record of Jewish sovereignty in Middle East history, impressed upon the President that an independent Jewish State would be a most effective military power, reliable, stable and inherently pro-US.

On Thursday, MK Simcha Rotman (Religious Zionism) submitted a draft bill aimed at regulating Israeli immigration policy. It’s a basic law with broad powers, intended to blow out of the water the temporary provision of the Family Reunification Law which Prime Minister Naftali Bennett’s coalition is promoting.
The family reunification process is conducted in Israel by the Interior Ministry, which accepts requests by Israeli Arabs for their family members living in the Palestinian Authority or abroad. This process usually takes many years, and most applicants end up petitioning the Jerusalem District Court. Most of the applications submitted for family reunification in Israel are by Arab citizens of Israel who married a PA resident.

Artur Pawlowski is a Polish-born pastor who recently gained international fame when Canadian authorities came to arrest him for the crime of holding a church service on Easter. “Get out! Out! Immediately out!” Pawlowski roared at the police in a video that
instantly went viral.
Pastor Pawlowski is traveling through America on his Courageous Faith tour, and on June 15, he spoke to an overflowing crowd in Manhattan. “Good people don’t obey the order of tyrants,” he bellowed, standing in front of an American flag. “If you’re not pushing evil away, you are part of the problem.”
T. Belman. Yes there is. Read Memo to Kushner,.
By the way I suggested to Yoram Ettinger that Amidror was way off with his 2 million plus Arabs in Gaza. He said more like 1.5 million.

There are plenty of nice plans for Gaza, but none that will change the core truth: Hamas will continue to seek Israel’s destruction, and Israel will continue to defend itself.
To understand the future of the Gaza Strip, it is necessary to consider the origins of the most recent round of fighting. Hamas’s missile barrage on Jerusalem began during a week fraught with tension. Two events and three significant dates—each of which with potential to raise the temperature—coincided in a very short period of time, creating a perfect storm.

In recent years, there has been a lively debate regarding the “Operational Doctrine for Victory” advanced by the current IDF Chief-of-Staff. The changes inherent in this doctrine have far-reaching implications for the IDF’s order of battle and approach to the use of force. The doctrine itself has many vulnerabilities that must be fixed.
In recent years, there has been a lively debate regarding the “Operational Doctrine of for Victory” advanced by the IDF Chief-of-Staff. The changes inherent in this doctrine have far-reaching implications for the IDF’s order of battle and approach to the use of force; and in part, even on the State of Israel’s national security strategy. At least in the public sphere, these matters are not being sufficiently discussed.<

As a candidate, Joe Biden’s number one promise was to “unite” America. Yet in his first months as president, his number one priority has been to divide our country by race and gender at every turn.
There is no clearer example than the Biden administration’s new effort aimed at indoctrinating America’s schoolchildren with some of the most toxic and anti-American theories ever conceived. It is vital for Americans to understand what this initiative would do, what drives it and, most importantly, how we can stop it.
T. Belman. In Yiddish there is a popular expression, “Es vet dir gurnist helfen.” (It won’t help you at all.) It comes to mind when considering whether to participate in negotiations at all. Netanyahu was right to refuse to participate and in asserting that Israel will defend itself. The people recommending participation, I would imagine are from the left.
In fact participation compromises your ability to act independently.
Three former top security officials say there is little time left to try to affect the Iran nuclear deal. Otherwise, they caution, Western powers can claim Israel has had its chance to be heard – and missed it

A sensitive document was sent in recent weeks to most of the senior offices in Israel, other than that of former Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. His successor, Naftali Bennett, has already read it.
It’s signed by three worried citizens: Maj. Gen. (res.) Aharon Ze’evi-Farkash, a former director of Military Intelligence; Gideon Frank, a former head of the Atomic Energy Commission; and Ariel Levite, one of Israel’s leading nuclear experts. The document’s authors were invited to present it at several meetings with the heads of the relevant organizations.
