Flashback, August 2015.
Barack Obama after the Iran nuclear deal:
“Iran will gain access to $56B. Our best analysts expect it to improve the economy and benefit the Iranian people.”
That money fueled Hezbollah, the Houthis, Hamas, and Iran’s campaign to destroy Israel.
Not schools. Not hospitals. Terror.
This is what “strategic optimism” bought the world. Good thing Trump was elected.
A civilization is built on a set of internalized values. Numerous civilizations have developed radically different visions of how to organize societies, and these have competed in process akin to Darwinian selection in establishing which civilizational ethos permits for maximal flourishing. American exceptionalism is one such system and it has yielded the greatest society that the world has ever known. Suicidal empathy is going to destroy it because Western tolerance is its fatal Achilles tendon. Remember my words.
“2,200 American servicemen killed at Pearl Harbor — we go on to kill 3.5 million Japanese, including 100,000 in one night. 2,800 Americans in 9/11 — we go on to kill 400,000 people in Afghanistan and Iraq. We weren’t accused of genocide.
If Mexico had elected a jihadist cartel to run their country and they incurred into Texas, and on a per capita basis killed 35,000 people, a population of the University of Texas, and on the way back, took the freshmen class at SMU hostage and hid them under tunnels, what would we do? It’d be the great Sonora radioactive parking lot.
But Jews are not allowed, and Israel is not allowed to prosecute a war. And they are prosecuting a war more humanely than we have done.
The ratio of combatants to civilians — of civilian death to combatant mortality — is lower than it was in Mosul, lower than it was in Japan, lower than it was in Germany.
So there’s just a different standard for Jews and Israel when it comes to prosecuting a war. They’re allowed to fight back to a truce.
But unlike America or any other Western nation that is attacked as viciously, they're not allowed to win a war. It's a double standard.”

If kids were actually starving in Gaza, the New York Times wouldn't have had to use a picture of a child with a rare neuro-muscular condition to lie and claim there was.
Everything about the "Palestinian" cause is a lie.
Everything.
The least the @nytimes could do, would be to post the correction of their starving boy story on their main site with 55 million followers. That would help mitigate the damage they have caused.
It speaks loudly that the original story was on the front page, top-of-the-fold right column, and the correction is on some Times PR site that no one follows.
The correction of a story published to 55 million followers was sent to only 80k followers. Clearly, a purposeful obfuscation to bury the retraction.
Why is the Editor in Chief Joseph Kahn @JosephKahn allowing this to happen, or worse, serving as a principal factor in the story and in the fake correction?
With a story of this prominence, he has to have been involved in the editing and in the strategy around the correction.
And stories like this lead lunatics to kill. It’s not just the reputational smear of a country, it’s a call to violence against Jews.
Tell me why I am wrong.
I believe in elections, you should vote for whom ever you like. I am not qualified to tell anyone who to vote for, but.. in this case????
If you're Jewish and you vote for Zohran Mamdani for mayor...
You are insane.
Somewhere in an alternate universe the Kamala Harris administration is debating cutting off weapons to Israel and publicly demanding that Netanyahu exercise restraint.
🧵 Basic maths
Sudan, with a population of 50 million, has received just 1,277 trucks of aid in two years of brutal war. In this time more than 500,000 children under 5 have died of starvation or malnutrition.
As someone who disagrees with a lot of what Trump is doing, this is about how I expected things to go so I don’t know why I’d regret the vote.
I also know how I’d have expected things to go if Harris was elected, and I’m still glad we don’t have that.
Like Mahmoud Khalil, I too am on a green card.
Unlike Khalil, I don’t support U.S.-designated terrorist organizations, take over university buildings, and call for the genocide of anyone.
He wasn’t arrested for speaking up.
He was arrested for breaking the conditions of his stay here.
Columbia let antisemitism run amok to cater to lunatic fringe and paid provocateurs.
Leadership allowed those assholes to take over the campus and terrorize Jewish students.
Now, Columbia pays for its failure and I support that.
George W. Bush:
“Palestinians have played their cards, they want to kill as many Israelis as they can, and negotiating with killers is not an option. So we must remain steadfast and know that only one side is guilty, and it's not Israel 🇮🇱”
Yarden Bibas told his family that while he was in captivity in Gaza, his captors informed him that if he converted to Islam, they would treat him much better. He responded, "I was born a Jew, and I will die a Jew." After rejecting their offer, they refused to feed him for two days.
