The world is better for young men like Kyle Rittenhouse defending their communities. 

By Christopher Roach, AM GREATNESS

In recent weeks, a series of high-profile criminal cases stemming from private citizens acting to protect their communities have been in the spotlight. A young Kyle Rittenhouse worked with other volunteers to protect Kenosha, Wisconsin from violent Antifa and BLM rioters. He ended up being attacked and defended himself from a violent mob, killing two and wounding one in the process.

In Georgia, a father and son, frustrated by a series of thefts, tried to stop a suspected burglar, Ahmaud Arbery. Arbery ended up charging them and reached for the son’s gun, only to be shot dead in the melee.

In a joint statement on Wednesday, Britain, France, and Germany stated that they were “deeply concerned” about the “successive breach of Iran’s nuclear obligations,” emphasizing that “unacceptable” Iranian activities “would lead to the acquisition of knowledge of nuclear weapons.”  “Iran must immediately halt production of metallic uranium and 60% enriched uranium,” “stop escalating tensions,” and “participate in negotiations without further delay,” the European troika mentioned in the statement.

Seyed Jalal Sadatian, Iran’s former ambassador to the United Kingdom, stated that the troika and the United States, Israel, and Saudi Arabia had come closer together.  He said there is a danger that the trigger mechanism (in the 2015 JCPOA) will be activated, which is dangerous for Iran.

T. Belman.  Be sure to read this and the comments.

Since My Pillow Mike Lindell’s Cyber Symposium in August, he has traveled the country speaking with officials about the evidence he presented there, and now he is promising a Supreme Court case filed by States before Thanksgiving.

His website Fix2020First.com has a video in which he briefly explains the story that got him here, and his plans:

“As you all know, I was brought cyber forensic evidence back on Jan. 9th that 100% proves and validates everything that happened in the 2020 election. I promised everyone in February that I would do everything I could to get this evidence to the Supreme Court. First I spent months validating this evidence, then I had a Cyber Symposium in August of which all 50 states were represented.

T. Belman. Better late than never. But why must we wait till most of the offenders die before they are outed?

The Reform movement can no longer point the finger to the Catholic Church or to Hareidi Rabbis claiming purity for themselves.  They too are guilty not only for the transgressions but also for the cover-up.

I wonder if religious institutions are more prone to this than are people in general.

Originally published under the title “Sudan Coup: Generals and Islamists Prevail in the Arab World.”

The October 25 military coup in Sudan follows a prevailing trend in the Arab world.

A coup has taken place in Sudan. In a series of moves on the morning of October 25 straight from the well-thumbed handbook of Arab military takeovers, Sudanese military forces stormed the country’s state broadcaster. At an unspecified hour, Prime Minister Abdalla Hamdok and a number of his ministers were taken into custody by the military. The coup’s leader and apparent instigator, Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces Lieutenant-General Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, then delivered a televised address in which he announced that an “independent and fair representative government” would hold power until elections, to be held in 2023.

Must Be Stripped Of Their Leadership Positions

WATCH WAR ROOM

Mark Meadows, President Trump’s last chief of staff, talks to Steve Bannon about the 13 RINO Republicans who gave Joe Biden a great big gift by voting for his socialist “infrastructure” bill.

“The blame doesn’t just stop there with the 13 Republicans. Let’s be very clear. Kevin McCarthy and his leadership team should have whipped this harder, and they should have made the Democrats get to 218 votes as a threshold. … If we continue to do this when we’re in the minority, we’ll never be in the majority, because the American people want something that’s authentic… But here’s the problem… the same leadership will continue to give money to those 13 Republicans to get them re-elected… You can’t have it this way.”

The Balfour Declaration was signed on November 2, 1917, at a time when Britain and its allies were driving the Turks and Germans out of Palestine, a barren region of a decayed and defeated Ottoman Empire.

The Palestine Campaign turned the tide of World War One. It was won by allied troops, including a large fighting contingent of Palestine Jews. No Arabs fought on the west side of the Jordan River, part of which is called, by ignorant activists and politicians, “the West Bank.”

For a contrarian view:  Editorial of The New York Sun, Special Prosecutor Durham’s Digging Into 2016 Vote Looks Like a Dead End for the GOP

He is methodically unraveling a huge, well-organized conspiracy

By Charles Lipson, RCP   November 8, 2021

Last week, John Durham’s grand jury issued its third criminal indictment in the Trump-Russia collusion hoax. The person who was arrested may be obscure; the news may have been buried after Virginia’s bombshell election results; but Durham’s move is a big deal. It shows that the special counsel’s probe is methodically unraveling a huge conspiracy, seemingly engineered by Hillary Clinton’s 2016 campaign and implicating James Comey’s FBI, either as a willing participant or as utterly incompetent boobs.

What Durham and a few intrepid reporters are uncovering may well be the most ambitious dirty trick pulled in an American election and its aftermath. The question now is whether Durham can expose the full extent of this malfeasance and charge those who planned and executed it.

(ZOA) President Morton A. Klein released the following statement:

ZOA is appalled by ADL featuring hostile-to-Israel speakers at its “Never is Now” conference this week. These speakers include: Dr. Sara Yael Hirschhorn’s extreme demonization of Israel has included accusing Israel of perpetrating “ethnic cleansing” and “daily violations of human rights,” and calling Israel’s lawful Nation-State law “horrific.”

Hirschhorn also condemns “denial of Palestinian sovereignty.” In other words, she views Palestinian Arab demands for a 23rd Arab nation-state as valid; but condemns Israel for identifying as a Jewish state.

Across the country, school boards have lost all sense of reality. They have established local monarchies where they claim complete control and deem parents domestic terrorists. They are establishing policies and curriculum that parents abhor. They think it is their right to indoctrinate students as young as four in Critical Race Theory and other agenda items of the radical left. They are telling parents to butt out. Their child’s education is none of their business. While most school board members are sincerely dedicated to the education of the students in their respective districts, many have become unaccountable tyrants.

T. Belman. In retrospect, Victor says that passing the budget and avoiding another inconclusive election was not  sufficient reason to buy off Abbas.  I had another reason for supporting Bennett’s move which is not yet apparant and may never be.

I lay the problem at Bibi’s doorstep.  He should have taken one for the team and resigned.

by Victor Rosenthal

It’s painful, but I have to admit that I was wrong.

I supported the Bennett-Lapid government because I believed that nothing could be worse than the instability of an endless series of elections and caretaker governments. The challenges facing the country were too great, from Hamas to the new American administration which was (and is) poised to try to force us into another series of concessions to the PLO while enabling Iran’s atomic project and holding us back from striking it. I wanted the country to have a budget, which it hadn’t had since 2018. And I felt that it was time for Binyamin Netanyahu to step down (although, unlike some, this was not my primary concern).

T. Belman. I am another that sees no value in seeking bipartianship. That only serves to water down our agenda. We should not change our agenda in order to achieve bipartianship support.

LAS VEGAS — Former United States president Donald Trump’s onetime envoy to the United Nations Nikki Halley tore into the pro-Israel lobbying group AIPAC on Saturday for hosting politicians who support the Iran nuclear deal.

“There’s one thing I don’t get about AIPAC, and I’m not saying anything to you that I haven’t said to their leadership,” she began in her speech at the Republican Jewish Coalition’s annual leadership conference in Las Vegas.

There are so many take-aways from the Virginia and New Jersey gubernatorial elections on the night the World Series also concluded. And we see that Americans still care deeply about the future facing their young kin. 

By Rabbi Prof. Dov Fischer, INN

So many take-aways from the Virginia and New Jersey gubernatorial elections on the night the World Series also concluded. And we see that Americans still care deeply about the future facing their young kin. . . .

1 . Virginia and New Jersey

The despicable liars of the Left Media hide the true news by shading and shaping it. It is the exact same in Israel as it is in America. They color and distort public opinion. They lie to us, intimidating tens of millions of people and brainwashing the public. They distort polling. They tell people a “truth” from an alternate universe, often persuading the weak and impressionable to lose faith in their own common sense.

The effectiveness of the three COVID-19 vaccines available in the United States has declined in recent months, with protection against infection falling under 50 percent for two of them after six months, according to a new study.

Moderna’s COVID-19 vaccine dropped to 58 percent in September from 89.2 percent effectiveness in March, researchers found. During the same time frame, Pfizer’s COVID-19 vaccine fell to 43.3 percent from 86.9 percent, and Johnson & Johnson’s shot declined to 13.1 percent from 86.4 percent.

By M. ben Manachem.  Israel has the technology and know-how to contribute to the nuclear industry and become a major worldcenter for SNR distribution.  However, to do so we need to begin by implementing this “at home”.

I am somewhat responsible for the negative attitude in Israel to nuclear power for electricity (I was the advisor to the Government that lobbied against it some 40 years ago).  The technology at that time was far different from what exists today.

It is time for Israel to “get over it” and embrace this.  We could combine with the UAE and Bahrain to commercialise this and capture a very significant portion of the world market.

Its total greenhouse-gas emissions are 1/700th those of coal—and one-fourth those of solar.

By Andrew I. Fillat and Henry I. Miller, WSJ     Nov. 4, 2021

Politics seems to have become inimical to critical thinking, and nowhere is this more obvious than climate change. Politicians peddle apocalypse and demand that Americans accept skyrocketing gasoline and home heating costs, rolling blackouts and brownouts, endless subsidies for uneconomic vehicles and power generation, and on and on.
