Shocking reports from Israeli soldiers who participated in the Gaza war:

They say they received orders to kill as many Palestinians as possible in Gaza. Another soldier says he shot innocent people like "ducks" in the head for fun, and that they would dig holes and bury them alive!

The world must know the truth about these monsters.

🇩🇪🔴 This migrant couple robbed an elderly German man's phone. He resisted for minutes, struggling with the woman on the ground, while her boyfriend hit the victim multiple times.

The woman attempts to make herself the victim by screaming he is "grabbing her nipple."

Bystanders stepped in, restrained the couple, and both suspects were arrested by police.

Normal day in the New Germany.

Two small island economies blew up in 2008. Iceland and Ireland. Their names differ by one letter, and their handling of the crisis differed by everything that matters.

Iceland's three big banks, Kaupthing, Landsbanki, and Glitnir, had grown assets to roughly ten times the country's GDP by 2008. Pure credit-fueled madness. When the music stopped, the Icelandic government did the unthinkable: it let them fail. Bondholders ate the losses. The state refused to socialize private bank debt onto 320,000 citizens who never signed up for it. Capital controls went up, the króna collapsed, and the politicians actually prosecuted bankers. Twenty-six of them went to prison. Sigurður Einarsson and Hreiðar Már Sigurðsson, the men who ran Kaupthing, served real sentences.

Ireland took the opposite road. In September 2008, the Irish government issued a blanket guarantee covering the liabilities of its major banks, including Anglo Irish Bank, a property-lending casino that should have been allowed to die in peace. The taxpayer absorbed the bill. By the time the rescue ended, Ireland had poured around 64 billion euros into its banks, roughly 40 percent of GDP. The state took on private gambling debts, then went to the Troika in 2010 hat in hand for an 85 billion euro bailout, and accepted years of austerity to pay for losses it had no business owning.

Both economies recovered. Both eventually grew again. The difference is who paid and who learned. Iceland made creditors and reckless bankers bear the consequences of their own decisions, which is the entire point of capitalism: profit and loss, not profit and bailout. Ireland protected the people who made the bad bets and handed the invoice to schoolteachers and shopkeepers.

You will hear economists call Ireland's GDP rebound a triumph (much of that "growth" is multinational accounting fiction, Leprechaun economics, but that's another lesson). What they skip is the moral architecture. When you guarantee bank liabilities, you abolish the discipline that makes markets work. You tell every banker in the country that downside is optional.

Iceland jailed its bankers. Ireland reimbursed theirs.

Tánaiste Simon Harris says that it is “disinformation” to say that foreigners get housing ahead of Irish people, but also says he won't release nationality data for housing lists.

@Ben_Scallan asks: “Why would you say it’s disinformation, but not want to release the figures?”

BREAKING: Battalion of security guards at Teaching Council investigation into Enoch Burke

Teacher Enoch Burke has now spent over 700 days in prison after he refused to use they / them pronouns for a male student.

The Teaching Council, set up by the government, is now “investigating” Enoch Burke with the threat that he will lose his license to teach.

Prison officers brought Enoch Burke from Castlerea Prison to the Teaching Council Offices in Maynooth this morning for a preliminary hearing.

The front entrance was blocked by three security guards from a private security firm. One of the men had a clipboard and asked the public for personal details before they were allowed entry.

The Teaching Council hired these guards on taxpayers’ money.

There were up to 10 of these security guards in the building manning the entrances and exits. This should not be. Under law, the hearing should be public. Today’s hearing was not public.

Enoch Burke spent approximately 6 hours at this hearing today with no legal advice or support in the room.

The panel set up by the Teaching Council to investigate Enoch Burke includes Chairperson Andy Pike, Clodagh O’Hara, and Adrian Guinan.

Panel members Andy Pike and Adrian Guinan left the building flanked by security. We understand that Clodagh O’Hara remained in the building until the Burkes had left to avoid being seen.

Enoch Burke asked Mr Andy Pike to step down due to social media activity expressing bias against him and support of the LGBTQ+ agenda. He also asked the other Panel members to step down for bias in previous conduct and decisions made.

Also seen in this video is Lorna Lynch SC who is a top-paid barrister and the legal advisor to the panel.

A decision on this is due to be delivered on Friday morning.

It is a scandal that Enoch Burke is being brought before this “Inquiry” at all.

Recent events at the Citywest migrant hotel in Dublin are just the tip of the iceberg.

Riots have been happening there for years.

The Irish government wants you to accept this as a normal part of life in modern, multicultural Ireland.

I just learned of a benefit to aging and I'm 100% overusing it. When you're around young people, they do things for you! You ask. They get up and do it. Would you be a dear and get me _______ . They'll do it! I'm only 58 and I can get those dummies to do anything.

Christians gather in the street to pray.

An immigrant walks up, spits at them, and tries to shut it down.

Bad move. He picked the Christian who doesn’t turn the other cheek.
