I haven't seen others discuss this, but in all the shrieking about genocide, almost nobody mentions the occasions when actual genocide was openly promised against the Jews of Israel. I count at least four times over the last 78 years.
That's about one attempted genocide against Israel every 20 years. And yet, we're supposed to believe they're the ones committing it?
When it comes to modern conflict, wars typically have limited and specific objectives: addressing a disputed border, acquiring a resource, or overthrowing a regime, among other things. However terrible wars are, they almost always stop short of declaring total annihilation of a people as a desired outcome. But this hasn't been the case when it comes to the wars waged against Israel.
Take, for instance, 1948, when the Arab League’s secretary-general foresaw “a war of extermination” and five Arab armies invaded a state not yet a day old. What do you think they wanted? Then, in 1967, Nasser declared that "...our basic objective will be to destroy Israel." In 1973, when war was launched against Israel on the holiest day of the Jewish calendar, the stated aims were more specific, but I suspect that, had the attacking countries been able to, they would have wiped Israel off the map. Then, on October 7th, Hamas — whose stated aim is literally the destruction of the Jewish state — triggered yet another attempted genocide, going house to house, butchering whole families.
These were attempted but disrupted genocides, and they failed for one reason only: Israel won. But what disturbs me most about all of this is that turning the target of genocide into the accused isn’t just an inversion of reality; it's an invitation to try again. Wake the hell up.
Una horda de musulmanes en edad militar se declara “solados de Allah” y toma las calles de un suburbio de Manchester en un desfile para pedir la aplicación de la ley sharía ahora que ya son mayoría en el barrio.
La vecina inglesa que lo graba no da crédito, hasta todos los rótulos de los negocios están en árabe, “asegura que han conquistado su ciudad por completo sin un solo disparo”
El califato islámico de Inglaterra ya es una realidad.
🚨🇩🇪🇮🇱 ÚLTIMA HORA: Angela Merkel defiende FIRMEMENTE a Israel y cuestiona la HIPOCRESÍA internacional hacia el Estado judío.
Estas son sus declaraciones:
1. Sobre las dificultades de Israel para combatir a Hamás en zonas civiles:
«Si intentamos ponernos en el lugar del primer ministro de Israel, comprendemos que se trata de una misión extremadamente difícil.
Si debajo de cada jardín de infantes y de cada hospital hay un búnker donde se esconden miembros de Hamás, que saben que la única manera de destruir sus posiciones es atacar también lo que hay encima, la misión se vuelve todavía más compleja.
El primer ministro de Israel debe hacer todo lo posible para garantizar la seguridad de sus ciudadanos, exactamente como los ciudadanos alemanes esperan que sus dirigentes garanticen la suya».
2. Sobre la ausencia de críticas a Hamás desde Gaza:
«Lo que me sorprende es que hayamos escuchado muy pocas voces desde la Franja de Gaza criticando a Hamás y confrontando sus acciones».
3. Sobre el trato internacional hacia Israel:
«Si analizamos cuánto se habla de Yemen, donde millones de niños sufren hambre, cuánto se habla de Sudán y cuánto se habla de Israel, podemos observar cierta desproporción: prácticamente no existe debate sobre lo que ocurre en otros lugares».
4. Sobre la responsabilidad de Alemania de garantizar la existencia de Israel:
«El derecho de Israel a existir forma parte del interés nacional fundamental de Alemania.
Siempre debo recordar cómo puedo contribuir a garantizar que el Estado de Israel siga existiendo y, preferiblemente, que también pueda vivir en paz».
5. Sobre las posturas contra Israel en Alemania:
«Si nos tomamos en serio el derecho de Israel a existir, y creo que debemos hacerlo, hay determinadas declaraciones unilaterales que no puedo comprender y que rechazo categóricamente.
El partido de izquierda Die Linke, en Berlín, tiene un problema particular en este sentido».
Gracias, Angela. 🇩🇪❤️🇮🇱
Nothing enrages me more than hearing Hamas leaders and their supporters boast that October 7 brought Palestine back to the forefront of the world's attention, or celebrate the fact that Israelis are now being thrown out of restaurants around the world, as though any of this were a victory.
Do you know what I wish for? What so many of us in Gaza wish for?
To go back to October 6.
Yes, October 6. With all its injustices, hardships, and imperfections. I would give anything to have our old lives back. Our homes, most of which we owned, not rented. Our jobs. Our cars. Our neighbourhoods. Our families gathered under one roof. Our children sleeping in their own beds. The ordinary, precious stability we never imagined could be taken from us so completely.
I would give anything to return to a time when Palestine was not the world's most urgent headline, when our lives were not reduced to death tolls, our homes to rubble, and our suffering to speeches about resistance, sacrifice, and victory.
What good is putting Palestine back on the world's agenda if the Palestinians themselves must be buried beneath it?
What kind of victory demands that we lose our homes, our loved ones, our livelihoods, our communities, and the very lives we were supposedly fighting to protect?
We were not born to be sacrifices for someone else's political glory. We were born to live.
And if the price of making the world remember Palestine is the destruction of everything Palestinians hold dear, then I would rather the world forgot us.
Forget us. Leave us out of your headlines, your speeches, your celebrations, and your grand declarations of victory.
Just give us back our lives.
Israël est le premier pays au monde à avoir pris des noirs d'Afrique pour les libérer et non pour les rendre esclaves.
Alors que la majorité des immigrants d'Éthiopie ne savaient pas lire, la génération suivante compte aujourd'hui des médecins, avocats, députés, ministres, ingénieurs, top modèles...
La communauté éthiopienne en Israël a environ doublé en 40 ans.
Mais la propagande palestinienne qui appelle les noirs "Abeed" (esclave) vous jure qu'Israël a investi des ressources immenses rien que pour faire venir les juifs éthiopiens en Israël et les stériliser.
En illustration: Pnina Tamano-Shata, née en Éthiopie en 1981. Elle a immigré en Israël à l’âge de 3 ans dans le cadre de l’opération Moïse. Elle a été en 2013 la première femme d’origine éthiopienne élue à la Knesset, puis devenue ministre en 2020.
The Missing Half of the Nasser Story: Why Hamas Keeps Escaping Accountability! The world erupted in rage over the Israeli Nasser Hospital strike in Khan Younis (Southern Gaza Strip) on November 12. Dr. Rizk Abu Shaira, a surgeon beloved by locals and by the American and British volunteers who worked beside him, was killed. So was a 13-year-old boy awaiting a procedure. Twenty-seven others were wounded. Those deaths are real, and they demand answers. But the outrage is incomplete.
The strike targeted Mohammed Abu Ismail, commander of Hamas’s Khan Younis Brigade and a participant in October 7. It also killed Murad Abu Zarifa, a Hamas member who held hostages that day. Most notably, it killed Khaled Abu Anza, head of Hamas’s intelligence and internal security in southern Gaza. His name is tied to torture, arrests, executions, and harassment of anyone suspected of opposing Hamas. He turned Nasser Hospital into an interrogation hub and built jail cells inside it. My friends were interrogated, jailed, beaten, and humiliated there by his men at the Hospital.
Many Gazans call Nasser “Thakana Askaria,” a military outpost. Hamas controls the medical facility. Offices of its Interior, Commerce, and Finance ministries operate inside, helping run its control and taxation of Gaza since the October 2025 ceasefire.
The world ignored repeated reports from me and countless others documenting Palestinians arrested, tortured, imprisoned, beaten, and interrogated inside Nasser Medical Complex, dismissing them as propaganda. Enragingly, almost all the condemnations of the November 12 Israeli airstrikes omitted any reference to Hamas or the reality that a jihadist terrorist organization continues to operate from civilian areas despite possessing tunnels and other infrastructure of its own.
Everyone knows Hamas is entrenched inside Nasser, as it is in the al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital in Deir al-Balah, central Gaza. The UN, NGOs, Gazans, Arab states, the U.S., and Europe all know it. International Humanitarian Law (IHL) allows protected status to be removed from medical facilities that are used for military purposes. Yet few say so, because saying so is inconvenient.
Israel may be wrong here. It may even be criminally negligent. But outrage that targets only Israel ignores Hamas's responsibility for turning a hospital into a battlefield. This is not a defense of Israel. It is a plea to recognize the danger Hamas's actions pose to innocent Palestinian civilians. If Palestinian lives matter when Israel causes harm, they must matter when Hamas does too. Consistency demands nothing less.
**Gaza under Hamas received more foreign aid than any other conflict zone on Earth.**
And what did they build with it?
Tunnels.
Rockets.
A tax system so aggressive the joke in Gaza was “Hamas wants to tax the air you breathe.”
They stole the diesel for power plants.
Then taxed the generators people bought because there was no electricity.
Every war = more “humanitarian crisis” = more donations flooding in.
Hamas sat back, drank tea, and cashed the checks.
The international NGO complex didn’t try to remove the terrorists.
They turned the catastrophe into a permanent business model that enriched both Hamas and themselves.
That system is what made October 7 possible.
More money.
More rockets.
More dead Jews.
And they still call it “solidarity.” 🇮🇱
I have issues with the way French has expressed his views in the past, but he makes a very good point here.
The people and their progeny that created and built the culture that has existed in the United States for 300+ years HAD THE RIGHT TO HAVE A SAY in the cultural changes what would were likely be brought about by unchecked migration of persons from the third world when NO DEMANDS being made upon them to change their traditions rather than expect the U.S. to change for them.
The Dems, after being border hawks for 50 years to protect organized labor, have set the U.S. on the path towards cultural destruction in their quest for power which they have calculated will come faster from imported voters than persuaded the citizens already living here.
“The Evil of NAZA,” my analysis of the outrageous claims and inferences pushed in the documentary Naza in @Commentary Magazine’s December 2026 issue. I try not to be surprised by the misinformation and disinformation that have been pushed about Israel’s operations in Gaza, but this film goes beyond anything I’ve seen yet. It tries to take good military practices and uses psychological tactics to convince a naive viewer that they are bad. Actually, the film barely touches on collateral damage and artificial intelligence, using those as launching points to demonize all IDF soldiers, the Israeli government, and all Israeli citizens with accusations of colonization, apartheid, genocide, and more. It directly calls Israeli citizens the new version of Germans during Nazi operations.

ISRAEL - GAZA 101
You’ve seen the videos circulating all over X of the formidable Egypt - Gaza border: heavily fortified, razor-wire, impregnable. Let me explain what you’re seeing.
Having been on both sides of that wall I can tell you there’s more to it than meets the eye. There are TWO borders:
One is visible, one is not; one is above ground, one is below it.
The Egyptians hate the Gazans and don’t want a single one of them. Not one. But Sisi’s government supplies them (i.e., Hamas) through tunnels beneath that wall.
Why?
Because Gaza is the cornerstone of the Arab States’ policy against Israel. By keeping them there, they put Israel forever on the defensive. Geographically speaking, it’s like giving your enemy a camp within the castle walls. In terms of size, Gaza is to Israel what California is to the rest of the United States. Muslim terrorist groups use it as a base of operations against Israel — and Gazans support them. This is why Israel wants to drive every Gazan out of Gaza.
This is how Oct 7th happened. Trucks, golf carts, explosives, small arms, RPGs, ammunition, motorcycles, and other matériel of war from Iran, China, North Korea, and Qatar flowed uninhibited from Egypt under the border into Israel. The UN organizations UNRWA and USAID — both supported with your tax dollars — served as a cover.
This is what I stumbled upon at the USAID compound in Cairo last year that set off a sh*t storm culminating in a standoff with the KGB-trained Egyptian secret police, their accusations that I was a spy, my testimony to the House Oversight Committee, and, according to the FBI, possibly the swatting of my home a few weeks later. I breached their security (twice), shot extensive video demonstrating that they were not shuttered as ordered by the President of the United States, were run by Arabs, and were almost certainly serving as a forward operating base fort the Muslim Brotherhood. Those videos got 10 million views and caused them much embarrassment.
And what is the military wing of the Muslim Brotherhood?
Hamas.
The fact is, Hamas can end the war any time they want by simply surrendering. They don’t because they want war. Their strategy is three-pronged:
1. Dig-in (literally) in Gaza and keep the flow of supplies coming for the next offensive
2. Deploy Arab money to run an effective online propaganda campaign screaming “genocide” to chip-away at Western support of Israel.
3. And, a long term strategy, run Muslims for key political offices in the West, the US especially, to eventually end Western support.
When I went down to Gaza from Jerusalem earlier this year, a frustrated IDF commander told me that they didn’t need US support, they just needed us to get out of the way. I told him he was wrong. That without US support, Israel would cease to exist. He grudgingly acknowledged the truth of this.
Arab States all know this, and they are working to bring it about. The effectiveness of their strategy is evidenced by the rise of antisemitism. That’s not by accident. It’s not because some arrived at that conclusion on their own. They’ve been led there by the steady drip on propaganda by bots and others on social media.
My support of Israel is realpolitik. Israel is culturally Western, the cornerstone of any sensible US Middle East policy, and they kill a lot of Muslim terrorists. The morality of this is simple: If you’re on the side of Muslims, you’re on the wrong damn side.
Hamas and Islamic Jihad's own documents show their intent to exploit and violate international humanitarian law by using Gaza hospitals for interrogations, mortar and rocket positions, military operations, and sheltering their own fighters.
Under IHL, hospitals lose their special protection when used for acts harmful to the enemy. Hamas commits war crime after war crime by using medical facilities as shields.
Notably, even after a hospital loses protection, an attacking force must still comply with the rules of distinction, proportionality, and precaution. Israel has repeatedly issued warnings, facilitated evacuations, brought in its own medical teams and supplies, and prioritizes ground operations over aerial strikes whenever possible. Those steps go well-beyond the minimum legal requirements.
Hamas is not granted immunity by hiding their weapons and fighters in hospitals. That would set an extremely dangerous precedent. Hamas does, however, continue to rack up actual war crimes while trying to exploit IHL for propaganda victories.
@davidharsanyi The problem is that the Dems are convinced (with reason) that having imported millions of voters they can obtain perpetual rule with direct democracy.
Ireland: “We will never buy Israeli technology!”
Also Ireland: Quietly buys the world’s best anti-drone jammers from a Tel Aviv company for EU Presidency security because nothing else works.
Oops, we accidentally bought Israeli tech 😉
Virtue-signaling is easy until the drones show up.
@mehdirhasan There was a time in late 2023 when people insisted that Hamas wouldn’t commit war crimes by commandeering hospitals for military purposes. And Hamas simps continue to make that claim.
How did an elementary school in Gaza punish a special needs child who misbehaved?
According to this teacher (yet another whistleblower to emerge from Gazan schools) “the administration grabbed the child, walked him around the classrooms, and had the students call him ‘Jew, Jew’”— bringing him to the point of suicide.
Jew hatred and the “culture of death” are a principal driver of ruin in Gaza and terror in the region, but more and more Gazans are speaking out.
@Jamihekl@AntSpeaks@LewisHamilton Hamas, PIJ and Gazan "civilians" launched a genocidal attack on 10/7, so, yeah, "control" is warranted. Some "control" though prior to 10/7, as I suggested. And if Hamas disarmed controls could and would be lessened -- do you favor Hamas disarmament or not?
Unfortunately it's impossible to deliver construction supplies into territory controlled by a jihadi army that wants to rebuild its October 7 war machine.
Hamas must disarm so Gaza can be rebuilt.
The longer you dodge that problem, the longer the people of Gaza will be wet and miserable.
🚨 In just ten days, a Jewish bakery in Montreal was destroyed by fire, and two Jewish-owned restaurants had their glass smashed.
But when the attacks were reported in the media, the Jewish identity of the targets and the possible wider pattern of antisemitism were often softened or delayed by our news organizations.
When Canadian outlets downplay the Jewish identity of the targets or treat a series of attacks on Jewish businesses as disconnected crimes, audiences are left with an incomplete picture.
