Netanyahu gave Trump a golden pager as a gift, a celebration of one of the most depraved terrorist attacks in modern history, intentionally killing and blinding children and toddlers. And the media class either ignored it, or celebrated it as epic and based.
Now imagine if a Hamas representative gave a miniature golden paraglider as a gift to some foreign leader, let's say the president of Iran. How do you think the Western media class would report on that? What degree of deranged hysteria would you see in NYT, Guardian, Washington Post, AP and Reuters headlines, and how much deranged screeching on air on CNN, MSNBC, BBC and Fox?
"OH MY GOD THEY ARE CELEBRATING TERRORISM OH MY GOD SEE! LOOK AT THEM!! SEE HOW EVIL THEY ARE!!!"
The genocidal Zionist Western media and political class have no shame, and their depravity has no limits.
Really sit and contemplate how creepy and frightening it is that civil rights are being systematically dismantled throughout the western world in the name of protecting the information interests of a genocidal apartheid state in the middle east.
Even if the other side is evil, there are moral rules about the targeting and incidental death of civilians. It’s honestly embarrassing how uneducated “conservative pundits” are. Calling themselves Christians, too. Not hard to see why Protestant churches are emptying.
Tell your reps: Respect the sovereignty of the Muwekma Ohlone People. It’s time to write, sponsor, and pass legislation to restore the Muwekma Ohlone Tribe’s rightful status as a federally recognized tribe. https://t.co/0kQGHIPcQs
The way Israel's defenders have segued from
'Israel does targeted air strikes and does it all can to protect civilians from them!'
to
'Israel has reduced Gaza to apocalyptic ruin, it is extremely dangerous for anyone to remain there!'
without even blinking
Because it appears that no one is able to see the obvious anymore, please note that since the U.S. has no legal or moral claim whatsoever to Gaza, Trump’s plan amounts to theft on a massive scale. (Some also need reminding that threatening theft is not a licit negotiating tactic)
The way too many Catholics think about politics today is not “What do the principles of natural law and Catholic social teaching actually entail?” but rather “How can I cobble together a 'Catholic' rationalization for what the leaders of my political party are currently saying?”
There's a massive part of the US Government that operates in complete secrecy, beyond democratic accountability, and for purposes the public is kept completely blind to.
It's what Dwight Eisenhower warned about - and that was 65 years ago.
Exposing USAID is a public service.
It's been a great couple weeks for the "I love free speech unless it's something negative about Israel" crowd. Not only did we get an EO to deport people who express hostility towards "American values" (i.e. don't love Israel enough), & an EO & corresponding task force to combat "antisemitism," but Congress is reviving the Antisemitism Awareness Act to ensure that criticism of Israel is included in the definition of "antisemitism."
🚨 Israel's existence has always relied on Hasbara — aka state propaganda. But it seems like the usual tricks aren’t working anymore. So now, they’re switching tactics.
Here’s everything you need to know to arm yourself against the what Israel is calling "Hasbara 2.0."

@FChristopher77 I learned of St. Xenia of St. Peters. recently & was blown away by her story! Imagine continually giving away all you had to the poor so you continually were homeless, living hand-to-mouth! Etc. She is infinitely my superior but will try to start imitating her. Wish more in Engl.
Israel's contribution to the always-growing thesaurus of genocides is the flippant indifference with which we killed and destroyed in the attempt to achieve our "targets". We didn't care. We still don't.
The numbers show repeatedly that most Palestinians want peace and a two-state solution. Most of the responses will try to prove the numbers wrong instead of treating it as good news. Why? Because many want to get rid of the Palestinians rather than make peace.
To look at the suffering and destruction in Gaza and see in it a good real estate opportunity, and to think that people might abandon their ancestral home given sufficient cash – it’s the crassest economic reductionism. It’s insulting. It’s obscene, really.
The Israeli military authorized the killing of hundreds of civilians in strikes where they weren't even positive a senior Hamas commander was there in *real-time coordination with U.S. officials.*
This is why Americans need to oppose supporting Israel. Our government is an accomplice and the main enabler of these war crimes.
