🛸 Jay Stratton on Bret Baier’s Special Report is the closest UAP has ever come to being treated as a real national security story instead of late night cable filler.
🚨 NOW: ICE and Border Patrol are staging EPIC takedowns of rioters outside the ICE facility in Portland
They’re FED UP with this bullsh*t
NO MERCY! KEEP UP THE ARRESTS!
.@Kasparov63, one of the greatest minds of this era:
“If Israel had fought the war in Gaza the way Putin does, for even one day, for 24 hours, there would be no Gaza.”
Hamas leaders Ismail Haniyeh and Yahya Sinwar really thought they would destroy the state of Israel.
Israel killed Haniyeh on July 31, 2024.
Israel killed Sinwar on October 16, 2024.
These two evil men are dead, and Israel is stronger than ever.
The IDF officially confirms that in the last 24 hours it successfully eliminated several terrorists from the military wing of Hamas in Gaza City, including terrorists who invaded Israel on October 7, 2023.
Israel is hunting down every single remaining terrorist.
Terrorist Hassam Walid Hassan Abu Al-Ata, a Commander in the Rocket Unit of Islamic Jihad, was successfully eliminated by an Israeli airstrike on Gaza City yesterday (Thursday).
Eretz Yisrael
Who was first? Palestinians or Jews? The answer is not 'either or'.
In the Egyptian Museum in Cairo stands a slab of black granite carved around 1208 BCE. Its hieroglyphs celebrate the victories of the pharaoh Mernepta: “Israel is laid waste; his seed is not.”
The display makes no mention that more than three thousand years ago, an Egyptian king who knew nothing of the Hebrew Bible recorded that a people called Israel was living in Canaan.
The modern pro-Islamist claim that Jews are latecomers is historically false. Numerous ancient records refute it.
Around 840 BCE, King Mesha of Moab carved a stone boasting of his war against Israel and naming the Israelite king, Omri.
A ninth-century BCE inscription found at Tel Dan refers to the “House of David.”
In 701 BCE, the Assyrian king Sennacherib recorded his siege of “Hezekiah the Judean” in Jerusalem.
These records are written by people with every reason to ignore Israel, that confirm that an Israelite and Judean people lived in the hills of Canaan for centuries before Rome existed.
The second claim is that Palestinians are an ancient people of the region, even older than Israel. This also fails.
The word Palestine is truly old, but it never referred to the people who carry that name today. Herodotus used Palaistinē in the fifth century BCE, and it comes from the Philistines, a seafaring people who arrived on the southern coast around 1200 BCE.
A 2019 study of ancient DNA from Ashkelon, published in Science Advances, found that the Philistines brought European-related ancestry with them, and that within two centuries it had been absorbed into the local population.
The Philistines disappeared after Babylon destroyed their cities around 604 BCE. Rome revived their name in about 135 CE, after crushing the Bar Kokhba revolt, and renamed the province of Judea as Syria Palaestina.
The Arab armies came in the 630s CE, some 1,800 years after Merneptah’s scribe carved the word Israel. They brought new rulers, a language, and a religion, and over the centuries most of the population adopted all three. What we call the distinctly Palestinian national identity arrived much later.
The Palestinian historian Rashid Khalidi, no friend of Zionism, dates its emergence in his book Palestinian Identity to the late Ottoman period and the early twentieth century.
Under the British Mandate, “Palestine” was attached to any group that lived in the region, including Christians, Muslims, and Jews, that the country’s leading English-language Jewish newspaper was called the Palestine Post.
It became the Jerusalem Post in 1950.
Modern genetic studies show that both Jews and Levantine Arabs, including Palestinians, carry substantial similar ancestry from ancient populations.
But historically, the Jewish people have an independently documented presence in that land going back more than three thousand years. Palestinians are, in large part, Arab descendants of the land’s long-term inhabitants, but their national identity is about a century old.
As to the claim of who lived in the land first, between Jews and Palestinians, the answer is not close.
Anyone who stands on a campus and calls the Jews of Israel foreign colonizers in their ancestral home is arguing with a granite slab in Cairo that names a Judean king in Jerusalem nearly 1,300 years before Muhammad was born.
Stones never lie.
Palestinian terrorists filming themselves kidnapping Israeli civilians from their homes. Some were executed, while others were taken to Gaza.
Never forget October 7th, 2023.
These people are American heroes. Full stop. They’ve done more to “redistribute the wealth” than anybody in history and they did it voluntarily and giving to children. Patriots.
We need to recognize that the pro-Palestinian protests are fundamentally protests against the West, and their ambitions are much greater than eradicating Israel from the river to the sea.
We need to take these threats seriously.
