ISIS massacred and enslaved the Yazidis in 2014. Thousands of women were sold in markets.

Ten years later, how many Yazidi suicide bombers have you heard of? Zero.

Sorry, but trauma doesn’t make you behead people… there is truly no excuse.

I’m afraid that since that very day, far too many people have forgotten far too much, grown far too complacent, and become far too casual about the value of the Western way of life, as if it were something to be taken for granted and no longer needed defending.

It really is like Beijing and Moscow grew Trump in a lab. Our “foreign policy” these last two years has been one long adventure in serving both.

More scenes of last night's mass arrests in Moscow.

Those 18+ were given draft notices and began the coercion process to sign military contracts. Mass reports of beatings.

Crime without accountability is practice. Justice is not vengeance. When the Soviet Union collapsed, we let euphoria blind us to the need for the hard work of investigation and responsibility. Do not forgive, do not forget, and clean house.

European leaders want to explain away Trump's statements about having been given Greenland as harmless delusion. It's not.

This line is being repeated by the US State Department.

The US government now believes it owns Greenland. They will act accordingly in the coming months.

If you think that misogyny isn’t a thing in today’s society, let me point out that there were a million people who blamed “female incompetence” for a plane crash in Florida today, but not a single person blamed “male recklessness,” even though the pilot in question was a man.

[Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський @ZelenskyyUa]

We have intel that Russia is preparing a new massive attack on our country – primarily targeting energy and logistics. The assumption is basically that tomorrow the world will be watching the American midterms, and what is happening here in Ukraine, along with our difficulties with air defense and Patriot missiles, will be overlooked.

We need signals from the world to Russia that will make them feel that terror is no good, that it will bring no gains, and that as long as this war continues, their oil will burn, and they will not be able to make money doing business with the world. We must not play games with Russia’s oil or gas revenues. We must put pressure on Russia in such a way that it has no alternative but to end this war. America can do this.

On this day—November 2, 1945

Arab mobs in British-occupied Tripoli and Benghazi massacred 130+ Jews in three days of barbaric violence. Synagogues were burned, homes were looted, and entire families were wiped out. The British intervened slowly and inadequately.

Violence against Jews spread across the Arab world. Two years later, on November 24, 1947, the head of the Egyptian delegation to the UN warned the establishment of a Jewish state would threaten “the lives of millions of Jews in Muslim countries” and “create in these countries an antisemitism even more difficult to uproot than the antisemitism the Allies tried to eradicate in Germany.”

That prophecy was fulfilled almost immediately. After the November 29 UN partition vote, Jewish communities in Aden (80+ killed), Bahrain, Syria, and Egypt came under attack. In Mandate Palestine, Jews were attacked within hours. The targets were Jewish civilians, including bus ambushes, market massacres, ambushed convoys, and bodies were often mutilated. The war cry was “Itbah al-Yahud”—slaughter the Jews.

The Secretary-General of the Arab League declared against the Jews, “a war of extermination and a momentous massacre that will be remembered like the Mongol massacres and the Crusades.”

The ancient Jewish communities in what had become the Arab world were from there systematically attacked and ethnically cleansed.

"Putin will wage war. I don’t know when, but he will. And you, Europeans, will be surprised to discover that this war is aimed at you, too... You think that what is happening in Moscow has nothing to do with you—that it’s our problem.
Putin hates people like me, certainly. But through us—in Russia, or through the revolutionaries in Ukraine or Georgia—it is you he hates: your democracy, your society, your freedoms.
Do you think his regime is merely a threat to us? Your awakening will be brutal."

She was assassinated in the lobby of her apartment building on October 7, 2006—Putin’s birthday.
