Progressive Monsters Are Killing Childhood  

By Arnold Ahlert, THE FEDERALIST  / MAY 3, 2021

The radical leftist indoctrination of kids in public schools is beyond scandalous.

“It is so fatally easy to make young children believe that they are horrible.” —children’s author T.H. White

It is time to call the majority of progressives who control America’s education system exactly what they are: Monsters.

With just one day remaining for him to form a coalition, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has reportedly agreed to a plan that would allow Yamina party head Naftali Bennett to try and put together a right-wing government, in return for him committing to a series of measures that could help the premier put an end to his ongoing criminal trial.

Saudi Arabia Is Talking to Iran. It’s a Potent Sign of Riyadh’s Desperation  

T. Belman. This report is too negative for me. No mention is made of Israel’s reaction to the Saudi attempt to gain more from negotiations. I would imagine that SA and Israel are also talking. The effect of a Houthi victory in Yemen is to put hostile Iranian forces on Saudi Arabia’s border just like Hezbollah is on Israel’s borders. There is no way that Iran will abandon attempts to get the bomb nor will Israel let them succeed. So to my mind SA will achieve nothing of value from their current talks.

As Biden strides towards a nuclear deal, an anxious, diminished and increasingly isolated Saudi kingdom faces a grim outlook – and negotiation with the Iranian enemy, through gritted teeth, appears the only way out

There’s no need to be surprised by reports that envoys from Saudi Arabia and Iran have been negotiating in secret in Baghdad. Nor by the fact that the negotiations have been vigorously denied. Nor that the Saudi crown prince now has uncommonly constructive things to say (and on the record) about his country’s possible future relationship with Iran.

Iran: Where Biden and Israel’s legal fraternity converge  

With its elected leaders hamstrung by unelected lawyers, the likelihood that Israel will be capable of conceiving and carrying out a policy to block Iran’s rise as a nuclear power is not high. Op-ed.

By Caroline Glick, JNS

(JNS) The U.S. media is treating the leaked recordings of Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif’s conversations with a journalist allied with President Hassan Rouhani as a major scoop. The recordings were allegedly set for release after Rouhani leaves office following this summer’s presidential elections.

While there is good reason to doubt their authenticity, assuming the recordings are authentic, Zarif told his interlocutor two notable things. First, he said the Iranian government is merely a mouthpiece. All decisions related to Iran’s foreign and security affairs are made by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps in conjunction with Iran’s dictator Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. Zarif said that his own contribution to foreign policymaking was “nil.”

Stopping Iran  

by Victor Rosenthal   May 2, 2021 

There are two ways to stop Iran from getting the bomb.

One is to apply pressure short of war. That would involve squeezing the regime economically, isolating it from as much of the world’s commerce as possible, while at the same time strengthening and supporting its domestic opposition. At the same time, sabotage, assassinations, and other operations could delay the nuclear program and weaken the regime. At some point it will break, or the opposition will become strong enough to break it.

The Truth That May Not Be Spoken About Black Students  

T. Belman. In 1998, Brookings published “The Black-White Test Score Gap: Why It Persists and What Can Be Done”

“African Americans score lower than European Americans on vocabulary, reading, and math tests, as well as on tests that claim to measure scholastic aptitude and intelligence. The gap appears before children enter kindergarten and it persists into adulthood. It has narrowed since 1970, but the typical American black still scores below 75 percent of American whites on almost every standardized test. This statistic does not imply, of course, that all blacks score below all whites. There is a lot of overlap between the two groups. Nonetheless, the test score gap is large enough to have significant social and economic consequences.”

I daresay that nothing much has changed.

The case of two professors savaged by the woke campus ‘police’.

By Richard L. Cravatts, FPM

As one more bit of evidence that universities have become “islands of repression on a sea of freedom,” Georgetown University’s Law Center is currently experiencing paroxysms of anti-racist fervor after two adjunct professors teaching a joint negotiations class, Sandra Sellers and David Batson, were unknowingly recorded bemoaning the low academic performance of their black law students.

Refuting the Palestinian Allegation to the ICC that Israeli Settlements Are a War Crime  

By Amb. Alan Baker, JCPA

  • Israel’s settlement activity is conducted in accordance with the requirements of international customary law, as well as the Oslo Accords, which established an agreed legal regime enabling each party to conduct planning, zoning, and construction activities within the areas under its jurisdiction, pending resolution of the conflict.
  • Israel’s settlement activity does not fulfill any of the overriding criteria established by the ICC Statute for war crimes, which includes the requirement that such activity be “part of a plan,” “done on a large scale,” and be “of sufficient gravity as to justify further action by the Court.”

Biden’s Withdrawal from Afghanistan Undermines His Own Global Strategy  

by Richard Kemp, GATESTONE INSTITUTE  •  May 2, 2021 at 5:00 am

  • Far worse than failing to intervene is intervening to fail. The withdrawal from Afghanistan is just that.
  • US allies who have themselves invested huge military and economic resources in Afghanistan fear a Taliban return to power and the blood-bath that would likely accompany it. Their concerns are shared by General Kenneth McKenzie, commander of US CENTCOM, responsible for Afghanistan, who told the Senate Armed Services Committee last week that Afghanistan’s forces might well collapse following US withdrawal.

It’s time to take a wrecking ball to the leftist education edifice in America  

By Christopher Garbacz, AM THINKER

As the Biden/Harris/Obama wrecking crew seeks to destroy America, our federal system provides an effective response: The states must resist in every possible way. While there are many different items on the resistance menu let’s look at education.

For decades, the left has exercised a laser-like focus on capturing education and molding it to their design. They have been successful. If you can teach children how bad America is and promote a leftist agenda as the only answer. you are getting close to home in terms of turning the country towards a hard-left haven.

Giuliani to Newsmax TV: ‘Unethical, Corrupt’ DOJ Seized Trump Documents  

By Solange Reyner, NEWSMAX     30 April 2021 07:53 PM

Rudy Giuliani says half of the documents the ”unethical, corrupt” Justice Department seized Thursday in a federal raid of his Manhattan home and office involve his representation of former President Donald Trump.

”When I was a prosecutor, when we used to obey the Constitution, you would never do this,” Giuliani said Friday during an appearance on Newsmax TV’s ”Greg Kelly Reports.” “‘In 2019, they invaded my iCloud account and took every record out for nine months. Those were the nine months I represented Donald Trump.

Canada has an eerie ‘police state’ feel lately  

By Andrea Widburg, AM THINKER

Canada lacks the miracle that is the United States Constitution. Still, as befits a nation the once-free British founded, it is a country that has traditionally had a few of what we consider to be core English freedoms – freedom of speech, worship, assembly, etc. Those concepts seem far away now, as Justin Trudeau and the various provincial and municipal governments use COVID as an excuse to crack down on those liberties.

I’ve written before about Canada’s draconian and expensive hotel rule for people returning by air from overseas travel. It’s gotten so bad that people are flying into the U.S. and driving to their home country to avoid the hotel restriction.
