Last summer, a wave of Western countries recognized a Palestinian state. They insisted this wasn't a blank check.

Recognition, they told us, came with expectations:
➡️ Reform Palestinian governance
➡️ Hold democratic elections
➡️ Exclude Hamas from power
➡️ Demilitarize
➡️ End incitement
➡️ Build the institutions of a future state

A year later, how many of those conditions have been met? NONE

Yet nobody talks about the absolute failures of Palestinian leadership: corruption, the refusal to hold elections or pursue meaningful political reform, funding education that incites violence, or preparing Palestinian society for peaceful coexistence.

Here's the pattern: Israel is treated as an accountable political actor, expected to meet conditions and answer for its decisions.

Palestinians are treated as people to whom history simply happens. The result is a conflict prolonged not only by Palestinian leaders, but by an international community unwilling to hold them to account.

Because the IDF fights Hamas, not Palestinian children.

BREAKING: we just filed an injunction to stop SpaceX from privatizing 727 acres of a public wildlife refuge.

Just 5% of native habitat remains in Texas' Rio Grande Valley. Even less is publicly accessible. We shouldn't give more away to one of the richest companies on Earth.

Finally, after nearly three years, the UN admits what Israel was warning:

Hamas is hijacking aid.

🔊To those asking, “How can we help Afghan women?” — the answer is simple, but powerful:

First, share their voices. In a time when even speaking puts women at risk, being heard means hope, visibility, and survival.

Second, support our online education program. Despite fear and restrictions, Afghan girls are secretly continuing their studies. You can help by sponsoring internet access so students can attend online classes, or by volunteering as a teacher and sharing your knowledge with girls who have been denied education.

This month and next month, our focus is on one of our students who urgently needs surgery. You can read her story on our GoFundMe page and help if you are able.

We have also launched a new initiative called Sister Care, which supports 20 vulnerable women, who live inside Afghanistan. Please read about this new initiative, share your feedback and ideas, and support it if you can.

Third, support food aid or urgent medical assistance for widows and women living alone who have no male provider in the household and are often too afraid to go outside.

These small acts can change lives.

ICE lied about how Renee Good was shot.

They lied about how Alex Pretti was shot.

And now they’re lying about how Lorenzo Salgado Araujo was shot.

Don’t believe their story for a second.

Hezbollah official: “We’re currently investing in protests and demonstrations in Western countries, especially among college students.

We already have Muslim students agitating, but it is the Western students themselves who will destabilize their own countries.”

This is the decades-old plan by the Iranian regime, Qatar and their proxies Hezbollah, Hamas and the Muslim Brotherhood to destroy America and Europe.

The world spent five days covering Khamenei's funeral. No one is talking about Azar Yahoo Who is paying a huge price simply for the crime of dancing right after she heard khamenei was killed.

A 39-year-old woman from Mashhad sat in a prison cell for daring to express her true feeling and share it on her social media.

Azar danced the day Khamenei was killed in a U.S. strike. She shared a sticker on social media.

The court charged her with collaboration with the Zionist regime.

She was arrested on March 4, 2025, by IRGC Intelligence. She has now spent 125 days inside Ward 6 of Vakilabad Prison — no verdict, no sentence, no end in sight.

And now it's getting worse.

Since July 5th, prison authorities have cut off all phone calls and family visits, not as a legal consequence, but as a deliberate act of cruelty. Her family cannot hear her voice. She cannot hear theirs. The silence is the punishment.

The regime that staged five days of televised mourning for a dictator gave this woman 125 days of a prison cell for one moment of joy.

That's the story no one is telling.

Please be her voice.

While the world's cameras are fixed on the five-day state funeral of Khamenei, the Islamic Republic is silently killing this 23-year-old girl with a slow death.

Raheleh Moeini, a biomedical engineering graduate of Amirkabir University, had traveled back to Iran from Italy to visit her family. On January 18th, in Saadatabad, Tehran, she was shot by security forces and at that very moment, bleeding and wounded, she was abducted and transferred to Qarchak Prison. Her family spent weeks not knowing where she was. Whether she was alive or dead.

Now Branch Tehran’s Revolutionary Court, has issued its verdict. One year for being on the street where they shot her. One and a half years for having a Twitter account. Two years banned from leaving the country. This regime first put a bullet in her, then put her on trial.

Be the voice of Raheleh Moeini.

Bill Clinton: “I killed myself trying to give the Palestinians a state. I had a deal they turned down that would have given them all of Gaza and 97% of the West Bank. You name it. They turned it down.”

The Palestinians never wanted peace.

TOP SECRET 1942: The Nazis official written pact with the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem — “Yes to Arab independence… and YES to the DESTRUCTION of the Jewish National Home in Palestine.”

This is not hearsay or interpretation. This is the actual English version of a top-secret letter from Nazi Foreign Minister Joachim von Ribbentrop, dated Berlin, April 28, 1942, sent on behalf of both Germany and Italy to Amin al-Husseini.

“Germany is consequently ready to give all her support … for the destruction of the Jewish National Home in Palestine.”

The letter frames it as part of the fight against their “common enemy” until “victory is achieved,” and orders it kept “absolutely secret” until Berlin decided otherwise. It was written while Rommel’s Afrika Korps was advancing toward Mandate Palestine where the Nazis planned to extend the Holocaust.

History did not begin in 1948. The organized Nazi-Arab rejection of Jewish sovereignty and active collaboration in the Final Solution was already on paper in 1942.

The archives don’t lie. Read it. Share it. Never let anyone bury it.

Turkey just banned a cruise ship carrying nearly 2,000 gay travelers, including Broadway legend Patti LuPone, from docking in Kuşadası and Istanbul.

Officials called the passengers a threat to their "moral values."

Istanbul police then raided a gay nightclub that had operated for 18 years, because it planned to welcome the cruise's passengers.

A state punishing people for existing. If a different, specific Middle Eastern country did this, it would lead every front page for a week. Turkey, a NATO country does it and the human rights industry looks away.

“Daddy was visibly Jewish.”

That is what Albert Itzkowitz’s daughter said through tears.

Albert was 75.

He owned a kosher bakery in Queens.

He served as a rabbi at a nursing home.

He volunteered as an EMT.

He was a grandfather.

On May 18, he went to Kissena Park, where he used to spend quiet time on his lunch break.

He brought a chair and a crossword puzzle.

He was found shot in the neck and back.

Murdered.

Now his children are asking anyone who saw something to come forward.

More than a month later, there is still no arrest.

There is now a $20,000 reward for information leading to an arrest.

Somebody knows something.

Say his name.

Albert Itzkowitz.

Do not let his family demand justice alone.

I know the President is flying to North Dakota today to visit the new Theodore Roosevelt Presidential Library… but it should be noted this visit comes only two months after he ignored Roosevelt’s descendants who asked him to save the Boundary Waters.

Roosevelt was the first American President to protect the Boundary Waters back in 1909. He was a staunch conservationist and thought of public lands as the birthright of every single American, and he was a huge Minnesota enthusiast (below you’ll see Roosevelt delivering his iconic “Speak softly and carry a big stick” speech at the 1901 Minnesota State Fair, just four days before President McKinley was assassinated and Roosevelt became Commander in Chief).

President Roosevelt’s descendants wrote: “Theodore Roosevelt was active in preserving our greatest wilderness terrain on both the East and West coasts - it became one of the greatest enduring legacies of his life. It is now time for all of you to get in the Arena with him. We implore you to do your own parts to ensure TR's common-sense approach to conservationism is as strong today as it was more than a century ago. There is no better way to do this than to preserve the greatest wilderness terrain in the middle of America's Heartland: The Boundary Waters.”

Yet Trump signed the legislation selling out the Boundary Waters two months later.
