Preacher and Islamic scholar Suad Salih on the rape of Yazidi women by ISIS:
“Allah allows Muslims to rape and humiliate non-Muslim women.
If we fight Israel, we will take Jewish women as sex slaves and rape them.
This is permitted in the Quran and hadith.”
These are not fringe voices on the street — this is a figure presented as a religious authority.
How long will the West keep pretending this has no real, world consequences?
Japan just sent a historic message…
New right-wing PM Sanae Takaichi just won a landslide in their parliamentary election. She’s anti-illegal immigration, wants to maintain "Japanese core culture" and is a China hawk.
Japan has given her a sweeping mandate.

No one on the left in 2012 believed in open borders, transing kids, or abolishing the police/prisons.
This is an attempt to rewrite history to hide how quickly you've become radicalized.
It's not working.
A pro Palestinian activist says he believed the Palestinian movement stood for human rights.
Then thousands of Iranians were kiIIed and the same activists said nothing.
That silence is when he realized the truth.
This was never about human rights.
It was about selective compassion.
When victims do not fit the narrative, they do not matter.
And that is when the movement exposed itself as a lie.
From here on, he plans to make peace with everyone he hurt along the way.
I was listening to Ron DeSantis talk about eliminating property tax in Florida, and at first I thought, “There’s no way that works.”
Then I heard the details…and it actually made a lot of sense.
The idea isn’t to eliminate property tax for everyone.
It would only apply to primary residences , people who live in Florida full-time.
Snowbirds who come for a few months? They still pay.
Businesses and commercial properties? They still pay.
But, if you own your home and live there permanently, no more yearly tax just to keep what you already own.
And honestly, why should you be taxed every year on something you’ve already paid for?
I saw this in Sweden, property taxes are extremely low, and people can actually stay in their homes for life instead of being forced out when taxes rise.
In the U.S., especially in high-tax states, retirees on fixed incomes often get priced out of their own homes. Some are paying tens of thousands a year just in property taxes.
DeSantis said only about 20% of Florida property is primary residences. The rest is businesses, commercial property, and part-time residents, which makes the numbers more manageable.
The big question is how local governments replace that revenue, especially in rural areas. He mentioned possible state-level revenue sharing.
Personally, I think it’s a really compelling idea, and politically, it’s going to get a lot of attention.
What do you think?
Should homeowners pay property tax forever on their primary residence, or once you own it, should it truly be yours?
Curious to hear different perspectives
