Post-COVID, Westerners snap up Israeli property  

“Of course, it’s a good time; there’s never been a bad time to buy in Israel. It’s not just a financial investment but an emotional and spiritual one, too. Everyone wants a little piece of Eretz Yisrael,” says realtor Kim Bash.

Scott Gross is a man with a mission. He’s scouring the country for the perfect place for his parents to enjoy their retirement.

“It’s one-half investment and one-half a place where they could live in the future,” says Gross. So it has to be just right, he says, since when (and if) his Baltimore-based parents are ready to take the aliyah leap, the place is poised to serve as the proverbial soft landing.

Mainstreaming Pedophilia  

By Rob Jenkins, AM THINKER

After the U. S. Supreme Court decided to change the 6,000-year-old definition of marriage in Obergefell v. Hodges, I predicted to a liberal friend that the Left’s next big push would be to normalize and ultimately legalize pedophilia. Of course, he scoffed at the notion.

In all fairness, he was right — but just barely. The next item on the Left’s agenda, it turned out, was changing the definition of biological sex and thus normalizing gender dysphoria. But mainstreaming pedophilia was not far behind.

More Than 5,000 Woke Teachers Sign Pledge to Teach CRT ‘Regardless of the Law’  

By Garion Frankel, WESTERN JOURNAL             July 4, 2021 at 2:47pm

Throughout much of 2021, conservatives, in both classrooms and in the halls of state legislatures, have been fighting back against the pervasive influence of critical race theory in public schools. Laws banning the instruction of CRT tenets in public schools have passed in more than 20 states, and there is reason t0 hope that the tide is beginning to turn in the fight for the country’s history and principles.

Unfortunately, the Zinn Education Project refuses to accept defeat, and desires to teach American children that this country was founded upon the “dispossession of Native Americans, slavery, structural racism and oppression,” as opposed to the principles of liberty enshrined in the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution.

The UN adopts Black Lives Matter, is mum on persecuted Christians  

Christians in Africa have begged the UN to save them from slaughter at the hands of Muslims. Incredibly, the UN is ignoring them. Op-ed.

By Giulio Meotti, INN Jul 05 , 2021 7:47 AM

Western states must take “immediate measures” against the “systemic racism” of which blacks are victims, said Michelle Bachelet, UN High Commissioner for Human Rights.

The same day of her speech another piece of news came in:

A court in Pakistan sentenced another Christian to life in prison on the basis of blasphemy laws. On July 11, 2012, Ahmed Khan, an Islamic leader in Rawalpindi, filed a complaint that Zafar Bhatti sent him text messages insulting Muhammad’s mother. He grotesquely accuses her saying that in Pakistan there is the death penalty, but it has never even been actually demonstrated.

Ha’aretz is an Enemy of the Jewish People  

by Victor Rosenthal    July 4, 2021

Ha’aretz is more than just a left-leaning newspaper.

It is an enemy of the state, and in fact, an enemy of the Jewish people, whose future depends on the state.

Today, when Israel and Jews are under attack throughout the world, when international organizations have been turned into lie factories targeting Israel, when the Jewish State is accused of the very crimes – terrorism, murder, apartheid, genocide – that her enemies are either guilty of or aspire to, an Israeli newspaper, owned and operated by Jews, is a primary propaganda organ of those enemies.

Jews of QAnon: How an Antisemitic Conspiracy Theory Is Winning Converts in Israel  

T. Belman. This Haaretz article is maintaining the lie that Jan 6 was an attempted insurrection by Trump people including QAnon.  Don’t you believe it.

The theory about a satanic cabal based on one of the world’s oldest, most lethal antisemitic libels is localizing itself to make inroads into the Orthodox Jewish community in the U.S. – and now, increasingly, in Israel

By Mia Bloom and Yulie Maimon, HAARETZ

Why would Jews be attracted to an antisemitic conspiracy theory?

That’s the perplexing question arising out of the inroads made by the Trump-venerating, revamped blood libel into U.S. Orthodox Jewish communities and now, in Hebrew-language channels, inside Israel as well.

The question becomes even more acute based on the the increasingly propensity of hardcore QAnon ‘believers’ to engage in violence, as described in a recent warning by the FBI, which has already called QAnon a potential domestic terror threat. A mid-June bulletin noted that some QAnon adherents are likely to move from being “digital soldiers” towards “real world violence” against Democrats and “other political opposition.”

What the ‘Old Man’ thought of Socialism  

By Victor Sharpe July 3, 2021

And who was ‘The Old Man’ you ask? It was the name Winston Churchill was given in his later years by an adoring public, especially following the end of World War 2.

Increasingly Churchill railed against the creeping socializing of Britain particularly after the Socialist Labour government swept to power in the July, 1945 General Election.

The Old Man later warned about the growing threat of Socialism in a House of Commons speech in 1948 when he said: “We are oppressed by a deadly fallacy. Socialism is the philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance and the gospel of envy. Unless we free our country while time remains from the perverse doctrines of Socialism, there can be no hope for recovery.”

The War on Reality  

By CJ Hopkins, OFF-GUARDIAN       June 30, 2021

So, the War on Reality is going splendidly. Societies all across the world have been split into opposing, irreconcilable realities.

Neighbors, friends, and even family members are bitterly divided into two hostile camps, each regarding the other as paranoid psychotics, delusional fanatics, dangerous idiots, and, in any event, as mortal enemies.

In the UK, Germany, and many other countries, and in numerous states throughout the US, a “state of emergency” remains in effect. An apocalyptic virus is on the loose. Mutant variants are spreading like wildfire.

Fixing the Woke Pentagon Starts Now  

By Peter Knickerbocker, AM THINKER

Our armed forces are being led by people not tethered to reality.  In testimony before Congress recently, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff defended Critical Race Theory.  He said he wants to understand white rage.  He thinks he is a well read critical thinker.  If General Milley genuinely wants to understand himself better, I recommend White Guilt by Shelby Steele.

Critical Race Theory, diversity ideology, radical feminism, and other woke nonsense are devastating military lethality and readiness.  Even though the beginnings of this trend go back decades, the denial of the differences between the sexes, and the more radical outgrowths of those false ideas, have become more intense than ever.  As the army of Communist China seeks to make its soldiers more masculine, our army seeks to attract more women and fewer men.  This trend has been chronicled, and its grave damage explained, by Brian Mitchell (Women in the Military, 1998), Stephanie Gutmann (The Kinder, Gentler Military, 2000), Kingsley Browne (Co-Ed Combat, 2007), Robert L. Maginnis (Deadly Consequences, 2013), and James Hasson (Stand Down, 2019).  The argument against women in combat roles, and in-theater combat support roles, is simply overwhelming.

Israel’s Unique Public Diplomacy Dilemma  

By Amb. Alan Baker, Institute for Contemporary Affairs

  • Despite an internationally recognized right to defend itself against terror attacks, Israel’s public diplomacy fails to convince the international and Western media and political elements, which, for many and varied reasons, demonstrate an ingrained propensity to prejudge Israel negatively.
  • The initial few days of international sympathy and understanding for Israel’s right to defend its population inevitably and rapidly metamorphosed into a wave of condemnation and accusations. The change came with the deliberate propagation of a false and distorted equivalence between a terror organization blatantly violating humanitarian norms and a democratic state legitimately defending itself against terror.

The real story about that Gaza death toll  

The media’s malign fictions feed murderous hysteria against Israel

By Melanie Phillips Jul 4

Iron Dome in operation over Kiryat Ono; Yoazey Stein, May 2021

In the recent hostilities between Israel and its attackers in Gaza, a prime Israel-bashing meme was — as ever — the falsehood that the Israeli forces were killing a huge number of Gaza’s civilians.

In vain did defenders of Israel point out that Hamas deliberately sited its missiles and other weaponry in and among apartment buildings, schools and hospitals in order to maximise civilian casualties of Israeli air strikes and thus defame Israel as a wanton aggressor.

COVID-19 lockdowns caused more deaths instead of reducing them, RAND study finds  

By: Michael McKenna,   Washington Times,:  June 30, 2021

COVID-19 lockdowns caused more deaths instead of reducing them, study finds

Those who pushed ‘shelter in place’ policies share the blame, but everyone feels the consequences

ANALYSIS/OPINION:

As we begin to pick through the rubble of the early days of the coronavirus that started in Wuhan in an effort to determine with some specificity the origins of COVID-19, and whether it was accidentally or purposefully released from a Chinese lab, it is important, too, that we assess the wisdom of our public health approaches to the disease.

World Economic Forum announces creation of Orwellian ‘Global Coalition for Digital Safety’  

WEF partners with Big Tech and governments to police Internet, encourage ‘coordinated action’ against unauthorized voices deemed ‘harmful’ to collective psyche

by Leo Hohmann   July 1, 2021

The World Economic Forum announced June 29 it will initiate a new “public-private partnership” with Big Tech and governments around the world to identify and uproot all opinions from the Internet that it considers “harmful.”

The WEF is one of those elitist organizations that wields enormous influence over the elected leaders of Western nations but which almost nobody in the general population has heard of.

Its members are internationalist corporate honchos and technocrats who meet once a year in Davos with the stated goal of working to “shape global, regional and industry agendas.”

“Liberal Fascism” – The end of freedom and prosperity  

Liberalism or progressivism seeks to create a nanny state in which the state mandates all kinds of things for the good of the people. And no person is entitled to opt out or to thwart the decisions of the state. Thus liberal fascism.”

By Ted Belman—November 16, 2008

Jonah Goldberg recently wrote the book “Liberal Fascism”. He was interviewed by Glen Beck and the interviews can be seen on YouTube. There are six parts to watch.

Wikepedia defines “fascism”. It seeks to form a mass movement of militants who are willing to engage in violence against their political opponents and groups or individuals that the movement deems to be enemies. Fascists wish to solve existing economic, political, and social problems by achieving a millenarian national rebirth by exalting the nation or race as well as promoting cults of unity, strength and purity. Fascism opposes the political ideologies of communism, liberalism and conservatism as well as political concepts and systems such as democracy, individualism, materialism, pacifism, and pluralism.

OBAMA, WHITE SUPREMACY AND ALL THAT JAZZ  

T. Belman. I had totally forgotten about this article written before Obama was elected. I found it particularly interesting in hindsight..  Look at all the references to “white supremacy” and socialism etc.

By Ted Belman, October 25, 2008.

Barack Hussein Obama would have us believe that Ayers was “just a guy in the neighborhood” and that Rev Wright “preached the gospel of Jesus, a gospel on which I base my life … the sermons I heard him preach always related to our obligation to love God and one another, to work on behalf of the poor, and to seek justice at every turn.” Would, that it was true.

Great VIDEO on the United Socialist States of America. A vote for Obama will bring this about.

The truth of the matter is that both Ayers and Wright blame white supremacy for the troubles of the world and that Obama was and is in agreement with them.
