Biden’s Vaccine Mandate: Unconstitutional, Unscientific, Underhanded  

By Mark Hanna, AM THINKER

“Tonight, I’m announcing that the Department of Labor is developing an emergency rule to require all employers with 100 or more employees that together employee[sic] over 80 million workers to ensure their workforces are fully vaccinated, or show a negative test at least once a week,” Biden pontificated on Thursday.

The edict hasn’t actually been issued yet; it is only in the making.  The White House has given itself several weeks — even months, possibly — for OSHA to bring it into force.

After cratering his own approval rating down to an unprecedented 39% — the lowest ever for a Democrat president at this point in his term — Biden seems to have retreated from his imbecilic “Ready, Fire, Aim” Afghanistan withdrawal strategy, which he boastfully executed under an immovable August 31 deadline.

Celebrating Our Enemies, Twenty Years after 9/11  

T Belman.  Islam is the mortal enemy of the Judeo-Christian world, Israel included, and we refuse to recognize it. To the contrary we treat it with the respect it doesn’t deserve.  More than that we protect it from criticism.

America dives, Islam thrives.

By Bruce Bawer, FPM

On 9/11, the world was shown, in one horrific, indelible image, precisely what Islam is all about. Today, to write the previous sentence is to be guilty of Islamophobia. How did that come to be? It began in the days after 9/11 itself, when George W. Bush – by repeatedly insisting that the cause of the jihadists had nothing to do with Islam – effectively ruled out of bounds any criticism of that religion, or any honest education and open discussion about it. Instead, Bush – who had gotten it into his head that all religions are basically good, and who was manipulated by advisors who wanted to project American power in a part of the world about which they knew very little – used 9/11 as an excuse to rein in Americans’ civil liberties and go nation-building abroad.

Why Israel’s transfer to US Central Command could help deter Iran  

By Bradley Bowman, FDD

U.S. Central Command announced Sept. 1 that it has assumed responsibility for U.S. forces in Israel. This positive development reflects changes in Arab-Israeli relations and offers an opportunity to build a more unified and militarily capable American-Israeli-Arab coalition to deter aggression from Iran and its terrorist proxies — one of CENTCOM’s top priorities.

Despite Israel’s location in the Middle East, when CENTCOM was created in 1983, responsibility for the Jewish state was assigned to U.S. European Command. That decision reflected Israel’s political isolation from its Arab neighbors. As a Pentagon news report noted in January with a bit of understatement, Israel’s regional isolation would have “complicated” efforts by CENTCOM to coordinate multilateral exercises and operations that included Israel.

The Red State Rebellion Against The Vaccine Mandate  

Read also: Biden Adviser Says Administration Will ‘Run Over’ GOP Governors Who Resist Vaccine Mandates

By Wendi Strauch Mahoney, UNCVERDC

A red state rebellion against the vaccine mandate is now unfolding after President Biden laid out his six-point plan to fight COVID-19. Biden announced what many see as draconian vaccine mandates on Thursday in his speech to the nation. He told the American people, “we’ve been patient, but our patience is wearing thin.”

Officials from twenty-seven states have now announced their refusal to cooperate. Right out of the gate, South Carolina’s Republican Governor tweeted, “The American Dream has turned into a nightmare under President Biden and the radical Democrats.”

More Young Adults Find a Sense of Belonging Through Meaningful Shabbat Experiences   

By Jason Edelstein, ONE TABLE

September 10, 2021 — With a bleak news cycle and pandemic anxiety again top of mind, more Jewish young adults than ever are finding a sense of belonging through Shabbat. In the first half of 2021, OneTable nourished more than all the dinners in 2020 – that’s 17,000 dinners all hosted by volunteers, creating 100,000 seats at Shabbat tables across the country.

From its beginning in 2014, Jewish funders and practitioners joined forces through OneTable to address two alarming trends: 1) Jewish young adults dissociating from Judaism – 30% of Jewish millennials between 30-38 describe themselves as having “no religion” (1 in 2 under the age of 30 say the same), and 2) Young adults are facing an epidemic of loneliness, isolation, and addiction to technology. More than half of millennials viewed themselves as lonely even before COVID-19.

20 years ago, the UN Durban Conference aimed to combat racism but devolved into a ‘festival of hate’ against Jews.  

T. Belman. “Devolved”, my ass. This takeover of the conference by the NGO’s was intended and planned from the beginning. It was attended by 3000 NGO’s.

NGO Forum at Durban Conference 2001 . NGO Moniter was there and fully reported on it..

BY RON KAMPEAS , JTA   

(JTA) — Some of the Jewish organizational officials flying into the coastal city of Durban, South Africa, on the last week of August 2001 were excited. They believed the U.N.’s anti-racism conference there would be an opportunity to exchange notes on a cause that the Jewish world had worked on for decades.

Others, steeped in how the United Nations and its affiliates functioned, were wary of some of the players, who were known for tirelessly steering every international conference to complaints about Israel. Still others who had been tracking preparations for the gathering knew that Iran, Israel’s implacable enemy, was planning to take over the proceedings.

Totally tolerating the Taliban: Naive tolerism in the face of Islamism  

Toleration of evil is not a Jewish value. And we can look back to the 1967 War, to see how ideological tolerism led to a key mistake by a top Israeli General. Op-ed.

"Lest they pray"; police escort Jews on Temple Mount
“Lest they pray”; police escort Jews on Temple Mount

A number of excellent pro-Israel writers have addressed the issue of the lessons for Israel with respect to President Biden’s bizarre handling of the withdrawal from Afghanistan of American troops and citizens and Afghan interpreters.

Some argue that America can no longer be trusted by its allies. Others conclude that America is weak and in decline. Can Israel rely on an administration headed by Joe Biden and Kamala Harris and filled with anti-Israel policy makers?

CAIR’s Islamist 9/11 opportunism  

On 9/11, CAIR advises against the term “Islamic terrorists” to sanitize the image of radical Islamist front groups -like CAIR itself.

Memorial to 9/11

Memorial to 9/11

As we commemorate the 20th anniversary of the horrific 9/11 attacks, the pain endures for the survivors and for the family members of the nearly 3,000 people who perished that day. New York lost hundreds of first responders at the World Trade Center, and 2,500 U.S. soldiers made the ultimate sacrifice in Afghanistan. We should be honoring and commemorating all of them on Saturday.

But instead of focusing on the victims, or insuring that we never forget the Islamist terrorists who carried out this attack, the Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR) has been assiduously trying to frame the focus on Muslims being the victims.

Biden Plans COVID-19 Vaccine Mandate for 80 Million Private-Sector Workers  

BY JACK PHILLIPS, EPOCH TIMES

President Joe Biden will direct the Department of Labor to develop a rule that companies with more than 100 employees will require vaccinations or once-per-week testing for their workers, potentially affecting tens of millions of U.S. private-sector employees, according to the White House.

The administration’s rule will require that “all employers with 100 or more employees to ensure their workforce is fully vaccinated or require any workers who remain unvaccinated to produce a negative test result on at least a weekly basis before coming to work,” which will affect more than 80 million workers in the private sector.

J Street’s atheist rabbi named Harvard’s chief chaplain  

Where Greg Epstein’s influence may well be felt, I fear, is on Jewish students’ perceptions of Israel, the Holocaust and antisemitism.

By Moshe Phillips

 The news media has been full of stories recently about the man-bites-dog story of the self-proclaimed atheist who was recently named chief chaplain at Harvard University. This matters not because more members of Congress attended Harvard Law School than any other law school and more American presidents were educated at Harvard than at any other university. This chaplain, Greg Epstein, will have an outsized role in life on campus. He has repeatedly illustrated radical ideas regarding not just G-d, Judaism and Torah, but also related to Israel, terrorism and the Holocaust. For example, Epstein has referred to Israelis as “Jewish supremacists,” a slur cribbed from white-supremacist leader David Duke.

Disasters Expose Erdo?an’s Paper Tiger Sultanate  

by Burak Bekdilb  BESA Center Perspectives


Wildfires blaze along Turkey’s southern Aegean coast last month.

August was an unfortunate month for Turkey. Firefighters and locals had to battle the nation’s most intense blazes on record across the Mediterranean coastline. At least eight people died, with hundreds of tourists evacuated as 300 fires spread across 40 provinces. The absence of a functioning national fleet of firefighting aircraft forced Turkey to wait for specialized planes to arrive from other countries.

The Post-American Age and Israel  

By Victor Rosenthal

The American debacle in Afghanistan is bad for America, and bad for Europe. The jihadists of the Middle East have received a huge gift of military equipment. They may even receive “humanitarian aid” from the US, in return for releasing some of the Americans still in Afghanistan. The Americans may call it aid, but everyone knows it is ransom for the release of hostages.

Psychologically, this is a massive boost to Islamic militants everywhere. Their belief that Allah is on their side has been confirmed. While I am probably too old to see them marching into the Vatican, unless present trends are reversed, my children probably will. Maybe they will find our Menorah, the one that Titus looted from the Temple in Jerusalem in 70 CE.

The rising biomedical security state is determined to use Covid to reduce every human being to a QR code  

by Leo Hohmann  9.9.2021

Without fanfare and with hardly a peep from the corporate-owned establishment media, the United Nations World Health Organization, also known as the WHO, issued a document last week that should set off alarm bells for lovers of freedom and liberty everywhere.

The document provides “guidance” for every nation in the world on how to go about implementing digital health passports, which is something Bill Gates, Klaus Schwab and other power elites have said since last year would be absolutely essential to conquering the Covid pandemic.

Iran’s Nuclear Weapons Weeks Away  

T. Belman. Lately, I have been thinking that the reason Israel is talking so much about attacking Iran (which is not her style) is because Biden asked it to in order to push Iran towards negotiations.

Blinken warns: U.S. close to giving up on Iran deal

U.S. Secretary of State Blinken says the nuclear deal was in peril of getting nixed due to Iran’s repeated infractions.

by Majid Rafizadeh, GATESTONE INSTITUTE  •  September 9, 2021 at 5:00 am

  • Apparently desperate to revive the nuclear pact, the Biden administration at once began appeasing the ruling clerics of Iran.
  • From the perspective of Iran’s mullahs, Biden’s desperate efforts to resurrect the nuclear deal manifested his weak leadership and therefore a delectable opportunity for Tehran to buy time, get more concessions, advance its nuclear program and become a nuclear state.

The CDC Just Made an Orwellian Change to the Definition of ‘Vaccine’ and ‘Vaccination’  

BY MATT MARGOLIS, PJ MEDIA

(AP Photo/David Goldman, File)

For your entire life, you’ve known that when you get vaccinated, you’re protected from a particular disease. You’ve probably been vaccinated for such diseases as polio, tetanus, measles, diphtheria, and others, and you no longer have to worry about them, because the whole reason your parents took you to the doctor to get those shots was to protect you from those diseases. Polio, in particular, has been completely wiped out in the United States thanks to the immunity created by vaccination.

A health care worker reports from the inside on COVID insanity  

By Alison Ruthless, AM THINKER

As the ravages of the COVID narrative continue to wreak damage, there remains a not insignificant swath of brave health care workers, from physicians to CNAs to administrative workers, who quietly but persistently question.  Contrary to much of today’s culture, when they are not being censored by Big Tech, they dare to ask for more information regarding the current unrelenting fear-mongering put out by so many among the American media and government officials.  They are often not the loud, abrasive virtue-signalers prevalent today; they are more likely to speak in whispers and furtive glances, afraid of who may be listening.  They are not looking for glory or recognition.  Often, they just want to continue to do their business of taking care of others without fear of harassment, discrimination, forced vaccine compliance, and possibly termination should they fail to do as they are told.

The false narrative on ivermectin  

By Peter Skurkiss, AM THINKER

Ivermectin is an anti-parasitic drug that has been used since the mid-1970s to treat river blindness and intestinal infections.  It has been documented by frontline doctors around the world to also be a safe and effective treatment for COVID-19.  Ivermectin has found widespread use in Latin America and India and was just greenlighted for treatment against COVID in Japan.

In the United States, however, not only is ivermectin not FDA-approved, but it is demonized with a near-religious fervor.

The Government and CDC Are Lying About COVID-19 Vaccine and Ivermectin  

The question is, why?

By Wayne Allyn Root, FPM


It’s been quite a week. I’ve been in the media business for decades and I’ve never before witnessed such lies, exaggeration and outright fraud. All with the intent to force everyone to be vaccinated. The question is why?

Let’s start with the vaccine itself. The results in Israel prove what a sham, charade and fraud this all is. The U.S. government and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention argue that the vaccine is our only chance to survive. And that people are hospitalized and dying with COVID-19 because they are unvaccinated.

Both arguments are pure fraud.

WI Election Integrity: Audits, Subpoenas, Investigations, and Legislation  

By John B. Nevin, UNCOVERDC

Wisconsin awaits the resolution of multiple ongoing election integrity efforts. An election processes audit by its Legislative Audit Bureau that Republicans had ordered in February, an investigation initiated by Republican Speaker of the State Assembly Robin Vos, and a battle over attempts to subpoena election materials for a full forensic audit are ongoing. The state government has enacted legislation for election reform, and the Wisconsin Elections Commission (WEC) has removed ~200,000 inactive voters from the rolls.
