A very important video by my friend Loay Al-Shareef, a linguist and blogger from Bahrain, who just does a quick history lesson for anti-Israelis like Mia Khalifa... You must watch and share!

Biden is now losing to Trump by 8 points in Michigan.
He should acknowledge reality, exit the race, and encourage a competition to determine who’s best able to defeat Trump or Haley.
The @DNC delusion is sleepwalking us to disaster.

In 1979 my parents fled #Iran because they were #Jewish.
Fled, not immigrated. They left behind all of their belongings. A handful of pictures, clothes and some small trinkets that could fit in a suitcase was all they took.
As my mother said goodbye to her family, she couldn’t stop crying. She was convinced this was the last time she would ever see her parents and siblings again.
Once they arrived in #USA, their circumstances continued to deteriorate. The value of the rial plummeted, and with it their meager savings were wiped out. What was once an exchange rate of 71 Iranian Rials to 1 US Dollar, became 9,430 Rials to 1 US Dollar.
My father, a college-educated pharmacist, couldn’t access his school records so he had to forfeit his degree and find work as a store clerk.
Neither of them knew English, nor could they afford to take classes, so they would sit together with a Farsi-English dictionary and painstakingly translate the words they heard on TV to try to teach themselves a new language.
I learned English in preschool, not at home. At night my mother would practice my older brother’s kindergarten homework to teach herself reading, writing and spelling.
We scraped and saved throughout my entire childhood as my parents struggled to rebuild their lives in America.
Yet, according to #DEI, because I am Jewish I am “white.” Because I am Jewish, I am “privileged.” And because I am Jewish, I am an “oppressor.”
But a Muslim-Iranian family, with the same exact experience or even a better experience as my family, would be considered “brown”, “oppressed” and “not-privileged.”
@mcuban diversity, inclusion and equality are noble concepts, but as applied by #DEI they are distorted into a form of reverse racism where discrimination on the basis of race is still permitted, and labels of “race” are applied with no regard to the unique backgrounds and experiences people have.
#DEI is nothing more than a manipulation of words to promote divisions and exclusions within our society that have no basis in reality, facts or circumstances.
And it is this same #DEI mindset that fuels students to blindly support #HamasRapists on the FALSE premise that they are “brown” and “oppressed” while simultaneously justifying the rape and slaughter of Jewish people like myself whose families have fled religious persecution and radical Islam.

To understand why late Egyptian President Gamal Abdul-Nasser created the idea of the State of Palestine, in 1964, you have to understand that he did it mainly to make up for his miserable failure in maintaining the first pan-Arab state ever, the United Arab Republic, a union that started between Egypt and Syria in 1958 and came to be known as the United Arab Republic (UAR -- see the pic of its currency, the Arab Dinar). Nasser entrusted governance of "the Syrian Province" to one of his notorious intelligence officers, Abdul-Hamid al-Sarraj, who ruled with iron and fire. The rival pan-Arab party, Baath, capitalized on popular anger against Nasser's tyranny, took over, and broke the union in 1961. Nasser kept the name UAR but needed, urgently, a replacement. He tried in Yemen, where he supported a coup. Saudi Arabia and Jordan supported the anti-coup government in a war that inflicted heavy losses on Nasser, who reasoned that he could find another alternative, while also getting back at Jordan. He thus instigated Palestinians of the West Bank and East Jerusalem to secede from Jordan and proclaim the State of Palestine, that would have joined Nasser's UAR, which the Palestinians did in 1964.
Until 1964, Palestinians and the Arabs in general never thought of Palestine as an independent state, but as an Arab land that was part of the greater Arab nation. That land was usurped by Jews and had to be liberated and united with the Greater Arab State. Nasser's Shoqeiri therefore formed the PLO, with the intent of declaring Palestine a state in WB/EJ and joining Nasser's UAR. But not so fast, Saudi and Jordan sponsored the rise of Arafat who, to counter his rival Shoqeiri and Nasser, thrashed joining UAR and stressed Palestinian independence as a nation. After Nasser's 1967 defeat, Arafat succeeded Shoqeiri as PLO chief in 1968, kept peddling the Palestine nation rhetoric. The rest is history.
Aidan Hutchinson shows up to Michigan — they win their 1st Big Ten title in 17 years (and in middle of 3-peat).
Aidan Hutchinson shows up to the Lions — they win their first NFC division title in 30 years.
Moral to the story: Aidan Hutchinson changes things. #GoBlue#OnePride
Netanyahu argues that we need to portray Oslo as something that failed, but what failed is that we collectively failed to grasp the opportunity for long-term peace, and we let extremists—on both sides—take power.
We need to get back here.
