When I was 20, if I discovered that burritos were $20, I would not freak out or call my Congressman. I would not demand a new world order. I would not become a socialist. I would not try to burn it all down. I would not blame Jews.
I would go to Walmart and get them for less.
Morocco did it. But why?
Morocco did not facilitate this to punish Spain over Gaza. It was not acting on orders from the United States or Israel.
The reason is much simpler: it worked before. Morocco used the same tactic during the 2021 Ceuta crisis and concluded that migration is an effective tool of political pressure. So it used it again, this time on a much larger scale.
The message to Madrid was clear: Support Algeria, back positions that undermine Morocco on the Sahara issue, and we can create problems on your own territory. It was a reminder that Morocco claims Ceuta and that, if it chooses, it can unleash thousands of its own citizens toward the enclave to pressure Spain.
When the images spread internationally and the situation began to spiral beyond what was politically useful, Morocco reversed course. By then, the message had already been delivered.
Madrid knows exactly what happened but has every incentive to avoid saying it publicly. The Governor of Ceuta, however, did not mince words.
Sean, if I was only thinking of myself I would just say nothing. It would be much easier but the interesting thing for me is the verbal attacks from gay people. Proving to some extent that these accusations of community are just a farce. The question I would ask you is what are you doing because it seems performative and desperately trendy. You seem to have no mind of your own. You and I are not friends. I have nothing to explain to you but why don't you post what you truly think about Jewish people rather than having an ethereal conflict with me? As a gay man you say zero about Africa where gay people are experiencing great pain and hostility. 30 African countries have criminalised our community. Yet you stand up for a country that brutally raped and murdered innocent people and I promise you they would laugh at your support.
I have no beef with Palestinians and I pray as a buddhist that peace comes to the Middle East. Neither you or I will shift the needle and despite being told by 'gay magazines' that I am loosing my audience, I am driven by something much deeper and simple.
This young beautiful girl in the picture is May Hayat who was at The Nova Festival, her friend was murdered and she escaped. We are standing in front of wall of people who were killed. All of them are peaceful, dance music lovers who would dance to your music. If anyone should be ashamed it should be you. Shouting 'Free Palestine' might seem noble to you but history will show you how wrong you are. Even if I was only 'doing it' for Philip Sallon' who fucking hates me or Jon Moss who tried to bankrupt me, I would still do it.
At this point I should say I hate Netanyahu but I don't. What would you do if the people you were elected to serve and protect were slaughtered, raped and brutalised. Had they not been stopped on Oct 7, it would have been the best example of a genocide.
Why not shout about Ukraine because just like Isreal, Ukraine was attacked.
I am not anti muslim because I understand that what happened on Oct 7 was about as ungodly as anything can get. People are not bad because of what they are or what god they seven but because of what they do.
I don't know you, so you hating on me means zero.
You sent a message that was lacking in any intelligence and frankly you don't deserve a response. For a Pisces you appear to be lacking in perception and where is that innate kindness?
Before you respond, take a good look at this picture and maybe then you will understand why I'm doing it. In reality, I am doing nothing but having an opinion that differs from yours and some other people.
If you really had any kind of belief system or conviction you would already realise what I think is none of your business. How's that for a response Dorothy?
A senior Hamas official just said it on live television: "We Palestinians are not indigenous of this place. Half of us are actually Egyptians, and the other half are Saudis. We are not from here."
This isn't an Israeli claim. This isn't Zionist propaganda. This is a Hamas official, on camera, telling the truth by accident.
The $3.3 billion the US gives Israel is not charity, it’s a high-return investment.
Israel serves as America’s most valuable real-world military testing ground.
Israeli pilots made hundreds of critical modifications to the F-16 alone, improvements that were later incorporated into jets sold worldwide.
The global aerospace and defense industry is worth over $400 billion annually.
Every battle-tested upgrade increases the value and competitiveness of American weapons systems sold globally.
This is one of the smartest defense investments the United States makes.
Heartbroken and furious.
The president of PEN America — an organization founded to defend freedom of expression for writers everywhere — just resigned in protest… because PEN dared to publish an article documenting the real pain, isolation, and blacklisting of Jewish and Israeli writers since October 7.
Dinaw Mengestu couldn’t stomach PEN shining a light on the silent moratorium: the agents who can’t place Israeli novels anymore, the editors who ghost longtime collaborators, the loyalty tests, the spreadsheets hunting “Zionist” writers, the pressure to downplay Jewish identity just to be published.
Instead of defending the very principle PEN claims to uphold — free expression for all — he walked away, framing the documentation of antisemitic exclusion as somehow “unethical.”
This is where we are. A premier literary freedom organization publishes a mournful, fact-based piece about Jewish writers being erased from the conversation… and its own president resigns in outrage.
Not over the erasure. Over naming it.
As a Jewish writer, myself I know every voice matters.
We’ve seen this before — the slow, polite marginalization that always starts with “just criticism,” then boycotts, then silence, then worse.
But we will not be silenced.
Jewish voices, Israeli stories, our truth — they belong. They will be written. They will be read. They will endure. Because light always pushes back against the darkness, and words have always been our most powerful weapon against hate.
To every Jewish writer feeling this exclusion right now: Your existence matters. Keep writing. The Jewish people have outlasted every attempt to erase us — and we will outlast this one too.
Am Yisrael Chai. Never again means never again — not even in the world of literature. 💔✍️🇮🇱

Alas, Mr. Congressman, I'm not lying. And I started this line of questioning assuming you were telling the truth. I've written long essays on extremist Israeli violence in the West Bank. I know it happens. I was ready, at first glance, to believe it happened here. But it didn't. This wasn't Israeli violence. This was agitprop for your American audiences.
I said explicitly that I'm not familiar with the details of that area. It took a lot of effort for JPost to find out what it found out -- which was that it was a closed military zone only recently opened.
But if you'd coordinated your visit with Israeli authorities, this would have been sorted out from the start. Those soldiers weren't angry or aggressive, they seemed mostly just confused about the status of the area and how to handle your visit.
Because, you know, there was no coordination.
JPost suggests all that in the article you yourself shared.
And what of the violence? Your group had cameras -- a professional photographer and at least one bodycam -- yet you've produced no evidence that I've seen of the violence you claim to have experienced.
Remember that you claimed the violence was sufficient to demand that Netanyahu order the prosecution of those soldiers.
I've seen that sort of violence before; if you produce that footage, I'll join your demand for prosecution. That's not rhetoric. I really will, wholeheartedly.
But if you don't, I think it's safe to assume you blew up a small inconvenience caused by your own refusal to talk to Israelis.
In a similar vein, you used the word "detained" as if you were unlawfully held against your will -- and hide behind its second meaning, that you were a bit delayed in driving forward into the area. The first is on the spectrum of kidnapping crimes, the second is the sort of problem you'd encounter at the entrance to a federal building as you search your pockets for an ID. Which was it?
Anyway, you were angling for some domestic political brownie points, and congratulations, you got 'em.
✝️🇮🇱🇱🇧 Christian Leaders in Southern Lebanon: “Annex Us to Israel”
Leaders of the Christian community in southern Lebanon have made an extraordinary appeal for their communities to be annexed to Israel and granted full Israeli citizenship, arguing that “the real occupation is Hezbollah.”
Who is actually committing ethnic cleansing?
In 1948, around 100,000 Arabs lived in Israel. Today there are over 2 million Arab citizens with full rights.
In the same period, nearly one million Jews were expelled from Arab countries. Ancient Jewish communities in Iraq, Yemen, Egypt, Syria, and Libya were completely wiped out. Almost none remain.
So tell me, who is really carrying out ethnic cleansing in the Middle East?
Israel made peace with Egypt in 1979, and hasn’t attacked it since.
Israel made peace with Jordan in 1994, and hasn’t attacked it since.
Saudi Arabia never attacked Israel, and Israel hasn’t attacked Saudi.
Maybe Israel just defends itself against enemy belligerents.
NYC Mayor Mamdani lashed out at Israel yesterday for eliminating Ahmed Wishah, an Al Jazeera “journalist”
Palestinians posted an obituary of Wishah, the journalist 👇🏻
One year ago TODAY I made this infamous post telling Nazis, groypers, and antisemites that there is NO ROOM for them in MAGA, Conservativism, or the Republican Party.
It quickly ballooned to over 800k views, tens of thousands of groypers and bots piled on to attack Wasson Watch. For months every single post of ours was responded to with clearly organized and disingenuous attacks from an army of bots and bad actors.
They insulted us. Spread lies about us. Made death threats. Even posted photos of our house.
But they couldn't stop us, and they couldn't shut us down.
Despite the hatred and evil, Wasson Watch Co. has grown since then, and we have much more grown on the horizon.
Doing the right thing isn't always easy. In fact, sometimes it can be incredibly difficult. But it's always worth it. And you should always remember that God is in control, and at the end of the day, the outcome belongs to him.
Trust God.
Do the right thing.
Reject evil in all its forms.
Oh, and Nazis, groypers, and antisemites? You're still not welcome.
SOLI DEO GLORIA
PAX AMERICANA 🇺🇸
Turkey OCCUPIED Gaza for 400 yrs. Never offered independence.
Turkey MASSACRED 1.5 million Armenian Christians. To this day, never acknowledged the genocide.
Turkey was NEUTRAL & PROFITED from war against greatest evil in human history—German Nazism.
Turkey has OCCUPIED 37% of #Cyprus since 1974.
Turkey has SUPPRESSED aspirations of tens of millions of #Kurds.
And we’re supposed to take morality lessons from @RTErdogan & company?
