Why is it never enough?

For those who have riches - it’s never enough.

For those who have power -
Its never enough.

For those who have fame -
It’s never enough.

For those that have all three -
Still not enough !

Here’s all you really need to know.

Want peace in the Middle East?

Instead of marching in support of Islamic terror (Which is what ‘Globalize the intifada’ means), how about marching in support of the Islamic terror states in the Middle East laying down their weapons?

There would be instant peace.

Unless.. Unless your march has nothing to do with peace and everything to do with Jews.

77 years of ‘genocide’ and the Palestinian population has grown from under 1 million to over 5 million.

Israel must be the most incompetent genocidal nation in history.

⭕️The 16+ kilometer underground tunnel in which LT Hadar Goldin was held has now been sealed, using 30,000+ cubic meters of concrete.

The tunnel complex included ~80 living quarters and served as a Hamas terrorist command-and-control center.

The tunnel was located near the Philadelphi Corridor and ran beneath a residential neighborhood, mosques, kindergartens, clinics, a school & a UNRWA clinic.

The primary witness for @nytimes @NickKristof "rape dog" piece was a "Gaza journalist." @pressfreedom finally admits many journalists in Gaza were really terrorists (as we all already knew) thus any information of this sort from a "Gaza journalist" cannot be considered reliable.

[Colben Ash @AshColben]

Alarming that an association championing the ethical and professional values of journalism …

DIDN’T check the facts.

FAILED to verify its sources.

IDIOTICALLY parroted terrorist propaganda.

Rushed to condemn
Israel & Jews in knee jerk antisemitism.

It’s becoming clear that the only fair thing is indeed to have a two-state solution.

The world needs …
ANOTHER JEWISH STATE !

[AP @Average_NY_Guy]

People often say that Israel is judged by a double standard.

I think that’s actually too generous.

A double standard means there are two standards. One is applied to everyone else, and a different one is applied to Israel.

But that’s not what’s happening.

The expectations placed on Israel are usually not standards that even exist anywhere else. They are demands that have never been expected of any other country, at any other time, under similar circumstances.

Imagine a teacher telling every student that they need a 70 to pass, but telling one student he has to score 110%.

That isn’t another grading standard.

A score of 110% isn’t even a real standard. It’s an impossible requirement invented for one person.

The expectations placed on Israel often work the same way.

People expect Israel to fight enemies who deliberately hide among civilians while achieving outcomes they have never expected of any other military in history.

They expect Israel to absorb rocket fire, terrorist attacks, and hostage-taking in ways they would never expect their own country to tolerate.

They expect Israel to supply electricity, water, fuel, and humanitarian aid to territory controlled by an organization dedicated to its destruction, while simultaneously condemning it for virtually every decision it makes.

They expect Israel to continually justify its very existence, even though no other established nation is routinely asked to defend its right to exist before its actions can even be discussed.

None of these are universal standards.

They are expectations created for one country and one country alone.

That is why I don’t think “double standard” is the right phrase.

A double standard assumes there is another standard being applied somewhere else.

There isn’t.

If you cannot point to another country, anywhere in the world or at any point in history, that has ever been expected to meet the same standard, then it isn’t a universal principle.

It’s a rule invented for one nation.

A standard that applies to exactly one country isn’t really a standard at all.

[Colben Ash @AshColben]

Sounds like a perfectly rational justification.

Jihadists destroyed all basis for trust and perpetrated monstrous atrocities against Israelis.

[The New Yorker @NewYorker]

Israel’s ban on Palestinian workers has left families hungry and parents unable to pay for their children’s school fees. Still, the ban is being justified in the name of security, and shows no signs of abating.

Hamas is violating the ceasefire by regrouping and recruiting instead of disarming, as required.

At the same time, the Trump administration is restricting Israel’s ability to operate in Gaza.

If Hamas carries out another attack, who should take responsibility?

[Kosher @koshercockney]

Wow. Holy shit.

30,000 cubic metres of concrete was just poured to fill up a Hamas tunnel network in Gaza.

This was the same tunnel network where those rats held the remains of Israeli hero Lt Hadar Goldin for 10 years.

Best use of concrete ever. Ever.

[Vivid.🇮🇱 @VividProwess]

Remember the massive Hezbollah terror tunnel that I posted about two hours ago, which the IDF destroyed in southern Lebanon?

Look at the amount of weapons found there. This is just several miles from the Israeli border.

Hezbollah must be destroyed.

If hijab is a symbol of pride , then why don't Muslim men wear them?

[Israel News Pulse @israelnewspulse]

Why has Egypt never opened its border with Gaza for free movement? Why hasn't it allowed Gazans to cross as freely as Israelis can enter Egypt through the Eilat border crossing with nothing more than a passport stamp?

Why have so many Gazans historically had to pay thousands of dollars, often around $5,000 per person to cross through the Rafah border instead of being allowed to travel freely like their neighbors?

This is of course a rhetorical question because Gaza is a terror infested jihadist stronghold.

No one in their right minds would ever open their borders for Gazans!

It’s pretty embarrassing that most people who defend Islam don’t seem to understand that since 700AD it hasn’t changed.

The throat cutting, stabbing, murdering and raping is the same as it ever was.

A video has resurfaced of Norwegian soccer star Erling Haaland 🇳🇴 video calling with former hostage Omer Shem Tov 🇮🇱

The reactions online are disappointing, but not surprising.

Some are trying to "cancel" Haaland, while others are trying to reason with what they are witnessing, hoping that Haaland was not aware that Omer is Israeli.

Must be hard for them to see Haaland treating a fellow human as a...well, human.

[Amjad Taha أمجد طه @amjadt25]

Another Iraqi Islamist politician, like some in the British Parliament, has been caught with money laundering and cash reportedly linked to Iran. This politician has protested in support of Hamas and Hezbollah, opposed banning the Muslim Brotherhood, and used antisemitic rhetoric. Do they remind you of someone?

[Daniel Rubenstein @paulrubens]

Here’s a riddle for you:

What do you call someone who believed in Hamas’s ideology, was paid by the Hamas government of Gaza, worked as a host on Hamas’s TV station, and promoted Hamas’s worldview on the air?

If you’re the Committee to Protect Journalists, the appropriate word for such a Hamas employee is: journalist.

This is insane.

When Hamas content creators are killed in the war in Gaza – and I know they are Hamas content creators not because the Israeli military says so but because the Committee to Protect Journalists says on its website that they were Hamas content creators – they are counted by CPJ as journalists who were killed in the war.

Again, this is insane.

I have been saying this since October 2023 and I will keep saying it until the Committee to Protect Jihadists is seen for what it is.

The moral corruption is off the charts: Tlaleng Mofokeng in 2023 was elected Chair of the U.N. Human Right Council's special rapporteurs. She used that position to block a major complaint documenting gross violations committed by her friend Francesca Albanese.
