The Open Racism of the New York Times  

By Victor Rosenthal

Donald G. McNeil Jr. was a science writer at the New York Times. Now he is unemployed.

Here is how he described the event that triggered his forced resignation:

On a 2019 New York Times trip to Peru for high school students, I was asked at dinner by a student whether I thought a classmate of hers should have been suspended for a video she had made as a 12-year-old in which she used a racial slur. To understand what was in the video, I asked if she had called someone else the slur or whether she was rapping or quoting a book title. In asking the question, I used the slur itself.

To be more precise, he did not use the word. He mentioned it. He talked about it. He did not, if I may be permitted to commit the same offense, call anybody a “nigger.”

The ICC’s European puppet masters  

Without the support of European states and the EU, the NGOs and supporters of terrorist groups that want to nail Israel to the wall would lack the financial wherewithal to promote ICC witch hunts against Israeli soldiers, officers and civilians.

Last Saturday, the justices of the International Criminal Court (ICC) took a major swipe at the Jewish state. They ruled that the ICC prosecutor is permitted to open a formal investigation of Israel for fake war crimes. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu blasted the decision referring to it as “pure anti-Semitism.”

Netanyahu added, “This court was founded to prevent atrocities like the Nazi Holocaust against the Jewish people, and now it is attacking the Jewish people’s only state.”

Could it be that there really is depravity of this magnitude among the elite?  

By Ted Belman

I just watched this video and many others on the subject.  I want your opinion on the veracity of what we are being told.

In a nutshell this video tells us that the White House has been dark for 10 days or so during which time a labyrinth of tunnels under the WH have been investigated and hundreds of children have been found there, some alive, some dead. Those alive have been removed and the people in charge of them that were there have been arrested or executed. A day or two ago there was a huge explosion under the WH which many in DC felt. Candace Owen who lives there tweeted about the explosion she witnessed.

Similar underground tunnels have been exposed in many places around the world.

It is expected that in the next three weeks all this will be revealed to the public.

12 legislative landmines on Biden’s path to restoring US-PLO ties  

Decades of laws and temporary waivers pose an obstacle to a constructive US working relationship with the representatives of the Palestinian people.

By Professor Bahbah 

FEB 11, 2021,US President Joe Biden’s declarations of his intention to restore ties with the Palestinian Authority, reopen the PLO delegation’s office in Washington, resume urgently needed assistance to the Palestinians, and renew US efforts to promote peace between Israel and the PLO are strewn by a dozen legislative landmines adopted by Congress since 1985.

Biden’s Concerning Foreign Policy  

Column: Speaking loudly while handing victories to Russia and Iran

By , FREE BEACON – 
President Biden And Vice President Harris Visit The Pentagon

It’s been only three weeks, but already I’ve lost count of the times the Biden administration has expressed its deep concern over a matter of foreign policy. Hungarian media closures, Somali election disputes, Chinese intimidation, Russian repression, Sandinista crackdowns, the coup in Burma, the International Criminal Court investigation into Israel’s conduct in Gaza—in just the last seven days the State Department has said it’s concerned about all these topics.

And it is right to be worried. The world is a dangerous place. It’s filled with aggressive, autocratic great powers and smaller nations succumbing to the authoritarian temptation. Which is why words are not enough. They have to be backed up with action.

Biden’s tepid moves to reverse Trump immigration policies  

T. Belman.  Biden will be opposed every step of the way. There will be massive resistance to every thing he wishes to do to reverse Trump’s policies. Without the support of the people or the military, he can’t do much.  He is the president in name only.

Border wall construction goes on in spite of Biden mandate to stop it

By , 

WASHINGTON (Reuters) – U.S. President Joe Biden on Tuesday ordered a review of asylum processing at the U.S.-Mexico border and the immigration system as he seeks to undo some of former President Donald Trump’s hardline policies.

Biden also created a task force to reunite migrant families who were separated at the border by Trump’s 2018 ‘zero tolerance’ strategy.

“We are going to work to undo the moral and national shame of the previous administration that literally, not figuratively, ripped children from the arms of their families,” Biden said, as he signed the three immigration-related executive orders at the White House.

Stop Calling It an ‘Insurrection’  

By Kurt Schlichter, TOWNHALL Posted: Feb 11, 2021

So, I was out at dinner with my old battalion commander – literally outside, because dining inside apparently is super deadly if you live under blue tyranny – and we were laughing at this whole “Muh Insurrekshun” nonsense. What happened January 6 was no “insurrection” in any meaningful sense of the word, especially not to those who survived the riots of 2020, and not to us either. See, I was my old battalion commander’s assistant operations officer and I was riding with him in his HUMVEE driving through Los Angeles as it burned in April 1992.

That was a riot. What happened on Capitol Hill was a few dudes dressed like Conan the Fauxbarian acting like fools and occasionally fighting with the cops while a few hundred other dudes took selfies in the Rotunda.

Mark Dubowitz: Biden Must Let Maximum Pressure on Iran “Run Its Course”  

by Marilyn Stern, ME FORUM, February 11, 2021

Mark Dubowitz, CEO of the Foundation for the Defense of Democracies (FDD), spoke to participants in a February 8 Middle East Forum webinar (video) about the Biden administration’s declared ambition to re-enter the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) with the Iranian regime.

The Obama administration entered the JCPOA, commonly known as the Iran nuclear deal, in 2015, claiming the agreement would permanently “cut off Iran’s pathways” to nuclear weapons. Instead of cutting off these pathways, said Dubowitz, the JCPOA “paves them.” He reviewed why the JCPOA is a “fatally flawed agreement.”

The Biden administration faces a daunting array of challenges, many of them pressing: the corona crisis and its attendant economic emergency; deep and divisive disagreements on social policy, migration, race and identity politics; reversing Trump’s course on climate change; the competition with China; tensions with Putin; and Iran’s drive towards a nuclear bomb – an almost overwhelming list. Less urgent concerns may stay low down on the list.

The Abraham Accords domino effect will lead to more peace deals

We were all so innocent when 2020 began. In January 2020, people around the world had not yet heard of the COVID-19 virus, and those who had – outside of Wuhan, China – didn’t know it would turn so many lives upside down.

In Israel, January’s news cycle in some ways looked the same as today’s – we were heading toward a March election then, too – but the diplomatic agenda was drastically different. There were three big stories: Naama Issachar, the Israeli woman in a Russian prison for alleged drug smuggling; preparations for the Fifth World Holocaust Forum, which brought leaders of 49 countries to Israel; and speculation about the Trump peace plan, which came out at the end of the month.

Blinken’s nod to Syria  

The secretary of state acknowledged Israel must hold the Golan Heights but left the final legal status open. He also signaled a downgrade in US-Israel ties

Secretary of State Antony Blinken’s statement Monday regarding Israel’s position in the Golan Heights has resonated in two contexts: as yet another indication of the change taking place in the US-Israeli relationship, and as a substantive statement on the issue at hand.

When asked by CNN about the Biden Administration’s view of the Trump Administration’s endorsement of Israel’s annexation of the Golan, Blinken responded that “leaving aside the legalities of that question, as a practical matter, the Golan is very important to Israel’s security. ”
