THE DOCTRINE OF THE N.A.F.T.A. GLOBALIST DEMOCRATS IS TO SERVE THE BILLIONAIRE CLASS WITH ENDLESS WAVES OF INVADING 'CHEAP' LABOR SUBSIDIZED WITH WELFARE FUNDED BY TAXES ON MIDDLE AMERICA.
In many speeches, Mayorkas says he is building a mass migration system to deliver workers to wealthy employers and investors and “equity” to poor foreigners. The nation’s border laws are subordinate to elites’ opinion about “the values of our country,” Mayorkas claims.
The SAG-AFTRA union has told striking members to “celebrate Halloween this year while also staying in solidarity” with the ongoing labor dispute, banning actors from wearing any costumes associated with “characters from non-struck content, like an animated TV show.”
SAG-AFTRA published a post on its website with its advice on how members should be seen in public during the annual Halloween festivities.
Instead of trick-or-treating as Barbie and Ken, industry outlet Varietyreports the guild recommended striking actors “choose costumes inspired by generalized characters and figures,” like, say, a “ghost, zombie, spider, etc.,” or “characters from non-struck content, like an animated TV show.”
The union then quickly qualified the warning by saying it only applied to members – not their children – as the strike that began back in July continues to roll on.
“SAG-AFTRA issued Halloween guidance in response to questions from content creators and members about how to support the strike during this festive season. This was meant to help them avoid promoting struck work, and it is the latest in a series of guidelines we have issued,” a guild spokesperson toldVariety on Friday afternoon.
“It does not apply to anyone’s kids. We are on strike for important reasons, and have been for nearly 100 days. Our number one priority remains getting the studios back to the negotiating table so we can get a fair deal for our members, and finally put our industry back to work.”

The clarification came after a number of members dismissed the costume guidelines as “silly bullshit” and “infantile.”
“THIS is what you guys come up with? Literally no one cares what anyone wears for Halloween,” former SAG President Melissa Gilbert wrote on Instagram in response to the union’s Halloween suggestions.
“I mean, do you really think this kind of infantile stuff is going to end the strike? We look like a joke. Please tell me you’re going to make this rule go away… and go negotiate!”
The Variety report detailed Gilbert then directly tagged the Instagram accounts of current SAG-AFTRA president Fran Drescher and chief negotiator Duncan Crabtree-Ireland.
She wrote, “For the love of God, people are suffering mightily and this is what you have to say… c’mon guys… This is the kind of silly bullshit that keeps us on strike. ‘Let’s enact a policy that makes us look petty and incompetent at the same time.’”

Friday on FNC’s “Hannity,” Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR) declared a $100 million proposed aid package for Gaza to be “dead on arrival.”
Republicans on Capitol Hill have warned such an aid package could end up aiding Hamas.
“Now, despite the importance of protecting our
homeland right now, Biden wants to send tens of billions more to Ukraine
and hundreds of millions to Gaza, which we know we all know is going to
end in the hands of Hamas,” host Sean Hannity said. “But Senator Tom
Cotton is putting his foot down, saying that Biden’s aid package is DOA,
dead on arrival. He joins us now with more. Senator, is that a hundred
percent certain it’s DOA?”
“Sean, if I have anything to do with it, it will be dead on arrival,”
Cotton replied. “And I think that’s the emerging position among
Republicans in the Senate. You saw Senator McConnell today said the
Senate will work its will to produce our own proposal. I think we need
to support Israel. We got to control our southern border, obviously. We
need to reinforce Taiwan, and we can provide needed military aid to
Ukraine. We can all those things.”
“But as you say, that’s not what Joe Biden’s proposals do,” he
continued. “It provides $3.5 billion of potential so-called humanitarian
aid to Gaza, which we know under current conditions is little more than
resupply for Hamas terrorists, or it provides billions of dollars to
relocate illegal aliens into our country put them up in hotels,
addressing the symptoms of the border crisis, not the cost of it, say,
abuse of parole system, or abuse of the asylum system. So, we need to
undertake efforts to support Israel and close our southern border. What
we don’t need is Joe Biden’s proposals, much of which is just a
long-standing Democratic wish list.”
Samantha Woll, 40, board president of the
Isaac Agree Downtown Synagogue in Detroit, Michigan, was murdered
Saturday, and was found stabbed to death outside her home.

A politically connected Detroit synagogue president was
found stabbed dead this morning outside her home in the city’s Lafayette
Park neighborhood, east of downtown.
Samantha Woll, 40, led the Isaac Agree Downtown Detroit Synagogue and
previously worked for Congresswoman Elissa Slotkin and on the
re-election campaign of Attorney General Dana Nessel, both Democrats.
…
“I am shocked, saddened and horrified to learn of Sam’s brutal
murder,” Nessel said in a statement. “Sam was as kind a person as I’ve
ever known. She was driven by her sincere love of her community, state
and country. Sam truly used her faith and activism to create a better
place for everyone.”
President Biden spoke out against antisemitism and Islamophobia in an Oval Office address last week:
You know, and here at home, we have to be honest with
ourselves. In recent years, too much hate has been given too much
oxygen, fueling racism, a rise in antisemitism and Islamicphobia
[Islamophobia] right here in America.
It’s also intensified in the wake of recent events that led to the
horrific threats and attacks that both shock us and break our hearts.
No motive has yet been identified, but Jewish institutions have been
under threat ever since the Palestinian terror group Hamas carried out a
massive attack in Israel on October 7, murdering over 1,400 people.
Breitbart News visited the Isaac Agree synagogue in 2019:
The Isaac Agree Downtown Synagogue, the last functioning
synagogue left in the city of Detroit, is a remnant of a community that
began moving to the suburbs even before the tumultuous events of the
1960s. Ten years ago, it was slated to close.
But it was saved by two young Jewish activists who reshuffled the
board and renewed the community’s interest in keeping the facility
alive.
Today, the synagogue is expanding, and holds regular Sabbath services.
The Detroit area is home to a large Arab population, and a large rally in support of Hamas was held in nearby Dearborn on Oct. 12.

DEMS ARE NOT THE ANTI-AMERICAN, PRO-MUSLIM AND WALL STREET PARTY!
Sen. Hawley’s Call to Condemn Campus Antisemitism Blocked by Dem Opposition – ‘A Revealing Moment’
Sen. Josh
Hawley (R-MO) expressed outrage over the support for “genocide against
the people of Israel” on college campuses, as his resolution against
campus antisemitism was blocked by Democratic pushback in what he termed
a “revealing moment.”
Hawley addressed
the Senate on Thursday, advocating for his resolution condemning Hamas
and student groups on college campuses that expressed support for the
unprecedented October 7 attack on Israel.
Despite urging fellow senators to
back his resolution, it was met with opposition from Democratic members
who ultimately succeeded in blocking it.
Hawley expressed deep concern about
endorsements of the attack, particularly on college campuses, arguing
that supporting violence against Jewish people and applauding attacks on
them should be unequivocally condemned by the Senate.
“Almost as disturbing
as the facts of these terrible attacks themselves is the response of
some people in this country,” he stated. “On our college campuses in
this country who promptly took to the streets, to the courtyards of
these campuses, the airwaves, to broadcast their support for this
genocide against the people of Israel.”
“Calling for the death of Jewish people is not just another opinion,” he added.
The Republican senator explained that
“calling for the genocide, celebrating the genocide of Jewish babies is
not just another opinion.”
“Celebrating the assaults on Jewish
people in this country is not just another opinion, and the Senate
should be clear and stand with moral clarity and say ‘this is wrong,'”
he stated.
However, Sen. Chris Van Hollen (D-MD)
objected to Hawley’s proposal for unanimous approval of the resolution,
arguing that it “smeared” students participating in such protests.
When Hawley
questioned Van Hollen’s “legitimate concerns” over the resolution, the
latter accused Hawley of “smearing all of the students who engage in
these protests — yes, you are — and that is wrong.”
In response, the Missouri Republican expressed outrage over the Democrat senator’s defense.
“It’s hard to believe that we’ve just
heard on this floor defense of the most vile antisemitic rhetoric under
the excuse that to call out specifically the specific statements and
denounce them one at a time and say ‘this is wrong,’ that that is
somehow a smear,” Hawley said.
“What that is is a failure of moral
nerve; what it is is a failure of moral clarity; what it is, frankly,
sympathizing with this rhetoric,” he added.
Hawley concluded by noting that the State of Israel is “under existential threat.”
“We have students in
this country who are specifically calling for and celebrating the
killing of Jews, and we can’t condemn that on the floor of the Senate?!”
he exclaimed.
“To say I’m disappointed is an understatement, Mr. President, but I will say this, it is a revealing moment,” he added.
The matter comes after numerous
protests held on college campuses in the U.S. came out to defend Hamas
and its massive attack on civilians earlier this month in the worst
terrorist attack in Israel’s history.
The unprecedented attack saw Hamas
terrorists gun down participants at an outdoor music festival, go
door-to-door hunting, torturing, and shooting Jews in local towns, and
burning homes with families inside while proceeding to murder soldiers
and infants alike, all while showering thousands of rockets down on
Israeli civilian centers.
Since, an anti-Israel protest erupted at the University of Washington last week wherein students were seen waving Palestinian flags and chanting for an “intifada”:
Meanwhile, the student groups behind
Harvard University’s controversial “pro-terror” statement regarding the
Israeli-Palestinian conflict organized a “die-in” Wednesday to protest
“genocide in Gaza”:
Earlier in the week, Hawley appealed
to the Department of Justice to examine any connections between
pro-Palestinian student groups and Hamas.
Additionally, he asked the Department
of Homeland Security (DHS) to investigate “terrorist-linked aliens” at
the southern border and sought the dismissal of a DHS employee over
antisemitic online content favoring Hamas.

Israeli Harvard Business School Student Accosted and Harassed Amid Gaza ‘Die-In’ on Campus
A first-year Israeli student at Harvard Business School was shoved and accosted amid a "die in" protest held on Wednesday to assail Israel’s retaliatory attacks on Hamas.
The incident, captured on video reviewed by the Washington Free Beacon,
shows the student saying "don’t grab me" and "don’t touch my neck" as
protesters surround him, blocking his view and their own faces with
keffiyehs.
Eventually, the student tells them, "I live here," as he tries to make his way through the crowd.
"You’re grabbing me," he says, amid shouts of "SHAME!"
The student, who asked to remain anonymous, described being pushed
and shoved as he tried to film them with his phone. A report to the FBI
identified two of the people laying hands on him as fellow Harvard
University graduate students, one a law student, Ibrahim Bharmal, a member of the Harvard Law Review, and the other a divinity school graduate student, Elom Tettey Tamaklo, who lives with Harvard undergraduate students in supervisory role known as a proctor.
Bharmal and Tamaklo did not respond to requests for comment.
A report has been filed with the Harvard University Police Department
and the FBI’s Boston office. "An Israeli student on his way to class
pulled his phone out to film the rioters and he was attacked. He was
assaulted both physically and verbally. Throughout the assault he kept
calm, but was aggressively attacked by Pro-Palestine rioters," reads the
report to the FBI, which was reviewed by the Free Beacon. "At
least 2 of those involved have been identified as employees of the
University and have not yet been dismissed from their posts."
The FBI declined to comment.
It is unclear how or whether Harvard plans to address the incident,
which was reported to Harvard Business School administrators. Neither
the executive director of Harvard’s MBA program, Jana Kierstead, nor
Harvard University president Claudine Gay responded to a request for
comment.
The episode is the latest conflagration on the Harvard University
campus since Hamas’s terrorist rampage on Israel and rising campus
hostility to Jews. The Harvard donor and billionaire investor Seth
Klarman, whose name adorns a Harvard Business School auditorium and
conference center, said this week that Harvard has become "exceptionally hostile" to Jews.
His remarks came after statement signed by 34 student groups laid
blame for Hamas's terrorist atrocities squarely with Israel. Harvard
president Claudine Gay’s equivocal statements—which
did not denounce the views of those groups—since have also drawn ire
from former college administrators like Larry Summers and prompted some
donors to cut their ties with the school.
Jewish students and administrators are also expressing concern about
the the university’s lax response to expressions of hostility toward
Israel and the Jewish people. "This morning I was reflecting on the
lengths to which Harvard went to try and penalize students who were
members of off-campus Final Clubs. Yet, beyond saying that they don’t
speak for the university, it says and does nothing about students and
Harvard entities who support Jewish murder, and call for more of it,"
Rabbi Hirschey Zachai, the founder and president of Harvard’s Chabad
wrote in an email obtained by the Free Beacon. "It severed its
ties with single-gender Final Clubs in 1984, but in 2023 allows student
organizations to maintain their Harvard affiliation while supporting
terror and calling for more of it."
In correspondence with law enforcement, the victim of Wednesday’s
bullying identified two of assailants as law school student Ibrahim
Bharmal, a member of the Harvard Law Review and a Stanford University
graduate, and Elom Tettey Tamaklo,
a divinity school student who lives alongside first-year students and
"host weekly study breaks" to "help with your adjustment to Harvard.
You'll find they are an excellent source of information about academics,
extracurriculars, social life, and College resources."
Bharmal in 2018 won Stanford’s
Sterling award for service. The citation recognized his work "with the
American Middle Eastern Network for Dialogue at Stanford, including
serving as global engagement chair" and noted that he was active with
"Markaz, the Muslim Student Resource Center and has been a voice of
honesty and compassion around issues within the Muslim community.
Black Lives Matter chapters across the country made waves last
week when they excused and explained away Hamas’s attack on Israel.
A coalition of 26 local chapters called the attacks a "desperate act
of self-defense." The Chicago chapter shared an image glorifying Hamas
gunmen on paragliders, before walking it back amid blowback. And the
movement’s Phoenix branch praised Hamas "freedom fighters" for their
acts of "resistance."
Echoing this rhetoric are two Hamas-friendly groups—American Muslims
for Palestine and the Council for American-Islamic Relations—that have
for nearly a decade worked arm-in-arm with the Black Lives Matter
organization to plan rallies and lobby lawmakers.
The groups are united by an "oppressed-oppressor narrative that helps
them destroy society," according to the Heritage Foundation's Mike
Gonzalez.
"They see Israel as a kind of mini-me of the West and America," Gonzalez told the Washington Free Beacon.
"They hate the West. Jerusalem is one of the founding blocks of Western
thought, so if they're going to hate the West they have to hate
Israel."
American Muslims for Palestine, whose board includes a man, Salah Sarsour, who helped raise funds for a Hamas front group in the late 1990s, declared itself "firmly in solidarity with Black Americans" and demanded "Justice for George Floyd" in 2020. It organized
Black Lives Matter rallies in Dallas in 2020 and the following year
cosponsored a rally in front of the Lincoln Memorial to demand the Biden
administration to sanction Israel.
Speaking at the American Muslims for Palestine event in 2021, one
Black Lives Matter leader articulated the groups’ shared commitment to
destroying Israel.
"Black people know when Zionists try to twist the words of black
brothers across the world," Black Lives Matter DC organizer Anthony
Lorenzo Green said
"I’m not just an ally, I’m your comrade. I’m in this struggle with you.
Our struggles our connected. That’s why Palestinian flags were flying
at Black Lives Matter protests last year and years before that."
"That’s why we can speak clearly that Israel is an apartheid state,"
Green declared, adding "From D.C. to Palestine, from the river to the
sea, Palestine will be free." "From the river to the sea" is a slogan
used by Hamas and other anti-Semitic groups to call for the destruction
of the Jewish state.
The Council for American Islamic Relations, whose cofounder and
executive director Nihad Awad has called Israel a "settler colonial
Apartheid state," was a vocal supporter of Black Lives Matter in 2020. A
federal judge in 2007 found "ample evidence to establish the association" between CAIR and Hamas. CAIR lobbied Congress for a police reform act supported by Black Lives Matter and displayed a Black Lives Matter banner in front of its Washington, D.C. headquarters, while local CAIR chapters organized protests with their Black Lives Matter counterparts throughout the Summer of 2020.
Black Lives Matter’s cozy relationship with the Hamas-friendly groups
may come as a shock to the movement’s Jewish allies, given that 600
prominent Jewish organizations, including the Anti-Defamation League,
signed a letter and published a full-page ad in the New York Times in August 2020 expressing their unequivocal support of Black Lives Matter.
Black Lives Matter's ties with the groups dates back to 2014, when
Palestinian activists advised black rioters in Ferguson, Mo., on how to
resist the police. Their efforts earned accolades
from prominent Black Lives Matter leaders such as DeRay Mckesson, who
credited Palestinian protesters for teaching rioters "what to do when we
got tear-gassed."
Rep. Cori Bush (D., Mo.), who said
cutting off American support of Israel was the only way to put a stop
to Hamas terror, honored Palestinian activist Bassem Masri during a
speech on the House floor in May 2021 for resisting and rebelling with
rioters in Ferguson.
Black Lives Matter solidified its ties with Palestinian forces in 2015 when its leaders embarked
on a 10-day trip to Israel to "experience and see firsthand the
occupation, ethnic cleansing and brutality Israel has levied against
Palestinians" and to build relationships with people in the region
"leading the fight for liberation."
During that trip, Black Lives Matter co-founder Patrisse Cullors organized
a flash mob in Nazareth specifically to support the anti-Semitic
Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions movement against Israel. Cullors
resigned from Black Lives Matter in 2021 amid allegations of financial
misconduct and now earns a living as a nude performance artist.
The following year, the Movement for Black Lives, a close ally of Black Lives Matter, released a policy platform that labeled Israel an apartheid state and called for the end of the "Israeli occupation of Palestine." The policy platform earned the unequivocal support of Students for Justice in Palestine, whose chapters have issued statements honoring Hamas "martyrs" who murdered Jewish children earlier this month.

Henry Kissinger’s About-Face: He Now Warns of Muslim Migrant Danger
He and his fellow European political elites have a lot to answer for.
The scales have fallen from the eyes of Henry
Kissinger. He was a signatory in 2015 to a letter that urged Congress
to pass legislation allowing more Muslims from Syria and Iraq — claiming
to be refugees — to be admitted to the United States. Now he looks at
Europe, where millions of Muslims have been allowed to settle, where
they batten on the benefits provided by those generous welfare states,
and sees how they have spread the virus of antisemitism that they
brought with them when they arrived. Kissinger was shaken by the
murderous antisemitism that was on display this week in the pro-Hamas
demonstrations that Muslims and their willing collaborators took part in
in many European cities. More on Kissinger’s new understanding of the
Muslim threat can be found here: “Europe Let in Too Many Foreigners,
Says Henry Kissinger in Wake of Pro-Hamas Demonstrations Across
Continent,” by Oliver JJ Lane, Breitbart, October 13, 2023:
Pro-Hamas demonstrations show European nations, including
Germany, made a “grave mistake,” and the continent should be concerned
about future hostage-taking raids against its own people if the idea
[sic] isn’t defeated quickly, Henry Kissinger warns.
“Europe is subject to internal pressure by groups of people “of
totally different culture and religion” because of the “grave mistake”
of admitting too many foreigners, Henry Kissinger said of the phenomenon
of demonstrations across Europe in support of Hamas terrorists this
week.
Kissinger spoke of groups of people now in Europe “of totally
different culture and religion.” He didn’t use the word “Muslim,” but it
is obvious whom he was speaking about, and now he admits that it was a
“grave mistake” to admit so many of them; there are now tens of millions
of Muslims spread across Europe. Their violent demonstrations in
support of Hamas terrorists have put on full display the moral abyss
between Muslims and Europeans, It’s not only antisemitism that Kissinger
worries about, but the anti-Infidel worldview that already has made
life so difficult for the indigenous non-Muslims in Europe, now forced
to share their towns and cities with those — Muslim migrants — who hate
and despise them almost as much as they do Jews.
Speaking to Politico in the wake of the Hamas terrorist
attack against Israel on Saturday, longtime kingpin of the globalist
movement Henry Kissinger walked back his previous position on the
importance of keeping Western nations open to refugee flows and said the
events of recent days showed nations had gone too far. He told the
publication observing celebrations in German cities in support of Hamas
is “painful” to watch.
Kissinger said: “It was a grave mistake to let in so many people of
totally different culture and religion and concepts, because it creates a
pressure group inside each country that does that.”.[i.e., promotes
Islam]
Europe should give “unconditional political support for Israeli
action” now the terrorist attack has happened, Kissinger continued, and
not least because in his view European states have a vested interest in
making sure no precedent is set for raids and mass taking of hostages
from Western nations is set. He concluded: “Israel must vindicate its
sovereignty in that area, and that it cannot permit Gaza to return to a
state where it could emerge, take thousands or a large number hostage,
kill thousands, and then live in that condition side-by-side with
Israel.
“I would say every European nation has the same interest because the same attitude might erupt in the direction of Europe.”
Kissinger has finally realized that the war against Israel is not one
over borders, but rather, over the very existence of the Jewish state.
And he now grasps that the same jihadist impulse can be found, though it
has not yet reached Hamas-like violence and depravity, among the Muslim
populations in Europe. As Kissinger says, Israel has to “vindicate
[make absolutely clear] its sovereignty” and to ensure that Hamas is
crushed, so that in Gaza there will be no possibility of returning to
the status quo ante bellum. Israel in Gaza is battling the same Jihadist
annihilationist threat that the rest of the West will face in the
future from its own population of Muslim migrants; Western solidarity
with Israel in its war should now be firmly expressed.
While hostage-taking raids on Europe may seem
far-fetched, they are not without ample historical precedent and match
other warnings about the very high-consequence risk of the tactic coming
to Europe’s shores.
Kissinger’s comments on the “grave mistake” and danger presented by
mass migration creating alien power structures within Western nations
are a considerable shift from his previous positions, which he long
acknowledged were influenced by his own experience as a refugee from
Nazi Germany going to America in the 1930s….
As a refugee from the Nazis, Kissinger was reflexively favorable to
all those wanting to be admitted to the U.S. as refugees or, rather, all
those who claimed to be refugees. This was a colossal error on
his part, based on his ignorance of Islam and his dreamy belief that
all refugees were essentially equal in their ability, and willingness,
to assimilate. He did not distinguish between a Muslim coming from Syria
or Iraq and a Christian coming from Mexico or the Philippines. It has
taken him many decades to grasp the nature of Islam, and the threat
posed by Muslims.
Kissinger in 2015 urged Congress to take in more Muslim migrants
because, in his tortured logic, that would show that the United States
had nothing against Muslims and, so he dreamily believed, this would
lessen the appeal of ISIS. But ISIS’s appeal was unaffected by how
Infidels treated Muslims. ISIS didn’t care if Infidel states treated
Muslims well or ill; its goal was to destroy all of them, and to create a
world where Islam everywhere dominates, and Muslims rule, everywhere.
Kissinger wanted to admit Muslims into the U.S. so as to head off a
“war between Islam and the West.” He failed so singularly to understand
that nothing the West can do will win permanent Muslim favor; if the
West were to allow the Muslims to destroy Israel, that would merely
whet, not sate, Muslim appetites for still more Islamic victories over
Infidels. That war, or jihad, has been waged by Muslims against the
world’s non-Muslims for the past 1400 years. When the Western world
admits Muslims into its midst, that does not change the Muslim
imperative to conquer, by demography or by war, the Infidel lands and
peoples. Allowing more Muslim migrants into our countries simply swells
the size of a dangerous fifth column.
Kissinger, who has always fancied himself a master of geopolitical
realpolitik, was an innocent about the texts and teachings of Islam,
unaware that waging jihad is a permanent duty for all Muslims. Now he
seems, at the age of 100, to recognize that he was wrong on the subject
of Muslim migrants, and that the Western world, too, was wrong, in
admitting Muslims who for the most part do not wish to, and are unable
to, integrate peacefully into the societies of Infidels who are, Muslims
are taught, “the most vile of created beings.”
Mea culpa, mea maxima culpa, on the matter of Muslim migrants,
signals Henry Kissinger at long last. He has a lot to answer for, as do
all those other cosseted soi-disant “brilliant thinkers” in
their chanceries and think tanks and consultancies — the people
belonging to the political elites of Europe who ignored Islamic history
and theology, and admitted into their midst tens of millions of Muslims
who may yet be the agents of the civilized Western world’s destruction.
Report: Hamas Leader Urges Worldwide ‘Mobilization’ on Friday
Ismail Haniyeh, Chairman of Hamas’s Political Bureau, called on
Thursday for Arabs and Muslims to engage in “general mobilization”
across the globe on Friday and urged for sympathizers of the terror
organization in nearby countries to march toward the Jewish state’s
borders, according to the Jerusalem Post.
Haniyeh’s call to action comes as Israel prepares to
expand its military operations in Gaza against Hamas, which launched a
shocking terror attack on the Jewish state on October 7 that has
left more than 1,400 people dead and another 3,400 people wounded.
Terrorists took 203 hostages into Gaza and over 100 people are still
considered missing, with 30 captives believed to be children.

Last week, Hamas called on Muslims worldwide to hold a “Day of Jihad,” or holy war, on October 13th.
“We declare next Friday, ‘The Friday of the Al-Aqsa
Flood,’ as a day of general mobilization in our Arab and Islamic world
and among the free people of the world,” the terror group said on October 10, according to Middle East Media Research Institute (MEMRI).
“It is a day to rally support, offer aid, and participate actively.
It is a day to expose the crimes of the occupation, isolate it, and foil
all its aggressive schemes. It is a day to demonstrate our love for
Palestine, Jerusalem, and Al-Aqsa,” the terror group added. “It is a
day for sacrifice, heroism, and dedication, and to earn the honor of
defending the first Qibla of Muslims, the third holiest mosque, and the
ascension of the trusted Messenger.”
Hamas’s call for a global “Day of Jihad” sent a chill down the spines
of Jews around the world. The call prompted the New York City Police
Department (NYPD) to direct
all officers to report for duty in uniform on the 13th. Some Jewish
schools chose not to open on Friday, citing advice received from
security firms they employ.

“This isn’t about Israel — it’s about Jews. And that’s what’s so horrifying,” one parent told the New YorkPost.
Meanwhile, outrage against Israel has risen in recent days after the
Israel Defense Forces (IDF) was falsely accused of launching an
airstrike on the Al-Ahli hospital in Gaza City.
Initial reports, which originated from Hamas, claimed
the strike on the hospital was carried out by Israel. Several corporate
media outlets and lawmakers, namely Canadian Prime Minister Justin
Trudeau and Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI), amplified such reports:
WATCH — Media Repeat Hamas Propaganda on Hospital Blast; Israel Shows Evidence Terrorist Rocket Responsible:
The IDF launched an investigation into the explosion and quickly concluded the
hospital had been hit by a Palestinian rocket by the Palestinian
Islamic Jihad (PIJ). Later, IDF spokesman Lt. Col. (res.) Jonathan
Conricus, speaking to CNN, further elaborate on Israel’s findings, which
showed the Jewish state was not responsive for the blast:
While in Israel, President Joe Biden said he
concurred with the IDF’s assessment, citing data presented to him by the
Department of Defense.
“Based on the information we have seen today it appears the result of
an errant rocket fired by a terrorist group in Gaza,” Biden said.
Nonetheless, the false claim against Israel sparked
angry mobs throughout the Middle East and North Africa, which targeted
Israeli, American, and other Western embassies. Additionally, a mob took
to the streets of the Jordanian capital of Amman and attempted to force their way into the Israeli embassy.
Mahmoud al-Zahar is the chief political guide
of Hamas. He doesn’t mince words about the goal of terror group. It’s
not just to destroy Israel and to replace it with a Palestinian state
“from the river to the sea.” It’s not just about killing every last Jew
on the planet. No, the fanatical True Believers of Hamas aim at nothing
less than creating a world where Islam dominates everywhere, and
everywhere, Muslims rule. Daniel Greenfield discussed this here,
and here is more about what al-Zahar said less than a year ago: “WATCH:
Israel is only the first target, warns Hamas commander,” by Danielle

and western ends. The dominion of my nation would reach those ends that
have been drawn near me,” Zahar said in the video that was published on
MEMRI TV in December of 2022.
“The entire 510 million square kilometers of Planet Earth will come
under [a system] where there is no injustice, no oppression, no Zionism,
no treacherous Christianity and no killings and crimes like those being
committed against the Palestinians, and against the Arabs in all the
Arab countries, in Lebanon, Syria, Iraq and other countries,” he said.
What does that mean? In this brave new world ruled by and for
Muslims, there will be no place for Israel, but no place, either, for
America, or France, or the U.K., or Italy, or Germany, or India, or
Brazil. The entire planet will fall under the reign of Islam. One vast
Dar al-Islam will cover the globe, and apparently there will not even be
room for the most cringing of dhimmis to exist, making Al-Zahar’s
hallucinatory goal far worse for non-Muslims than what they have
heretofore endured under Muslim rule. They will no longer have the
possibility of surviving as dhimmis, no matter how wretched; their only
alternatives will be immediate conversion or death. In the glorious
Islamic future that Al-Zahar is certain will come, there will be no
place for other religions. There will be “no Zionism [i.e. Judaism]” and
“no treacherous Christianity.”
To repeat: Mahmoud Al-Zahar, one of the co-founders of Hamas in 1987,
and the most senior Hamas official still living in Gaza, has a goal
that should alarm all non-Muslims. That goal, to repeat, is this:
“The entire 510 million square kilometers of Planet Earth
will come under [a system] where there is no injustice, no oppression,
no Zionism, no treacherous Christianity.”
When Israeli troops finally enter Gaza to wipe out Hamas, they will
be wiping out people who have fun as they decapitate babies and
children, burn families alive in their houses, rape and murder young
girls whose bodies they gleefully display on the back of trucks, posting
photographs of an elderly lady’s corpse on Facebook so her relatives
can see. The mutilations of bodies — the pulling out of entrails, the
eyes gouged out, the genitals cut of and pushed into the mouths of the
dead — these things Hamas has done, but the Israellis who saw the
evidence haven’t been able to bring themselves to discuss publicly. This
is Hamas, intent on removing from the earth all Jews and Christians,
leaving the entire world to those whom Oriana Fallaci contemptuously
described as the “sons of Allah.”
The next time a Hamas spokesman, his voice breaking with feigned
despair at those terrible Israelis who for no reason at all are dropping
bombs in Gaza, explains on radio or television that Hamas only wants to
“free our people from the open-air prison we have been living in for
more than 50 years,” be ready to remind him, and the too-gullible
members of his audience, what Hamas’ co-founder set out just last
December as the terror group’s objectives. That should provide a
salutary shock for those who until now have been unaware of what Hamas
intends to do, and what jihad means, and why, alas, that worldwide jihad
will never end.
Pentagon CFO’s Chief of Staff Has Family Ties to Islamic Terrorism
In 2019, Yousra Fazili addressed a congressional hearing to complain
about the arrest of her cousin by Indian authorities. The woman who now
serves as Chief of Staff for the Pentagon Comptroller claimed that her
cousin was the innocent victim of oppressive Indian authorities.
According to the daughter of Kashmiri Muslim immigrants, her cousin
Mubeen Shah had been arrested under India’s Public Safety Act even
though he was “not a politician or a dissident, he isn’t a freedom
fighter, or even a kid in the street throwing stones. He’s just a
businessman. His life’s work has focused on bringing economic
opportunity to Kashmir.”
In reality, as the Hindu Post noted, Shah had “lionized
Kashmiri jihadists, agreed with a description of convicted terrorists
as ‘inspirations for the youth,’ and promised that ‘we all are ready to
spill our blood’” to keep the region Muslim. On Facebook, Shah appeared
to have posted a picture describing Mohammad Afzal Guru, an Islamic
terrorist tied to the ‘The Army of Muhammad’, which is affiliated with
Al Qaeda, as the “Pride of Kashmir”. Guru had been executed for his role
in a December 2001 attack on the Indian parliament.
Fortunately for Shah, he had his Fazili family deeply embedded in
America’s political establishment. Yousra’s sister, Sameera Fazili had
been brought in as a senior policy advisor to Obama’s National Economic
Council. And when Biden took office, she became the deputy assistant to
the president and the deputy director of the National Economic Council.
When Shah was arrested, Sameera and Yousra Fazili “dialed friends in the State Department” and the State Department demanded
information about him from the Indian government. Rep. Pramila Jayapal,
a radical leftist sympathetic to Islamic terrorists, agitated for his
release.
Soon Shah was out and Yousra Fazili was in, joining her sister in a
high-level position in the Biden administration. Where Sameera had
worked on the economic side of things, Yousra became the Special
Assistant to the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Nuclear, Chemical
and Biological Defense Programs three years after agitating on behalf of
a terrorist supporter.
It was incredible even by the standards of an administration that
seemed to have abandoned even the most elementary forms of background
checks and security screenings.
But before long, Yousra Fazili appeared to be providing materials on
Islam to federal contractors like Booz Allen Hamilton and then to the
Defense Intelligence Agency. She made the leap to the Department of
Defense, first serving as the Special Assistant to the Assistant
Secretary of Defense for Nuclear, Chemical and Biological Defense
Programs and now serves as the Chief of Staff to the Comptroller and
Chief Financial Officer of the Pentagon.
But before that she was working for the state sponsor of Hamas.
Rep. Jack Bergman, a retired Marine Corps lieutenant general, wrote a letter
to Secretary of Defense Austin, expressing his concern “about the
security clearances and responsibilities entrusted to Yousra Fazili, the
Chief of Staff for the Comptroller and Chief Financial Officer of the
Pentagon” due to her past work as “‘strategic’ advisor to Meshal
Al-Thani, the Qatari Ambassador to the U.S., for over three years.”
Qatar is a close ally of Iran, hosts Hamas leaders and has ties to
Islamic terrorist groups all over the world. Reports link the Qatari royal family to Al Qaeda.
The Islamic terror state harbored 9/11 mastermind Khalid Sheikh
Mohammed who escaped when Qatari officials allegedly tipped him off and
he left on a “a specially equipped government executive jet, complete
with blacked-out windows.”
Furthermore, as Rep. Bergman points out, Qatar was engaged in covert
hostilities against the United States. Fazili worked for the “Qatari
Ambassador at the time that her client was targeting prominent Americans
in an effort to silence Qatar’s critics, including the then-Chairman of
the House Foreign Affairs Committee, Ed Royce, and the former acting
head of the Central Intelligence Agency, Michael Morell.”
How does someone go from working for an ally of Iran and Hamas to a prominent position at the Pentagon in a matter of years?
The failure by the Biden administration and the Pentagon to perform
even the most elementary vetting of Yousra Fazili is a massive national
security failure. Yousra Fazili had testified on behalf of her cousin,
while lying about his support for Islamic terrorists, and had publicly
supported Islamic terrorists linked to Al Qaeda. The efforts by the
Fazili sisters to rally support for him in the State Department should
have made that public knowledge in D.C.
Yousra’s sister Sameera, despite her role in the Obama and the Biden
administrations, also had a troubling past with extremist groups.
When Biden brought her into
the National Economic Council, it was revealed that Sameera was a
member of Stand With Kashmir (SWK) “which was founded by her cousin,
Hafsa Kanjwal” and which had “praised and defended the actions of a
number of violent Islamists” including Asiya Andrabi who had “met with
Al Qaeda officials and told them that if ‘you belong to Sheikh Osama’s Al-Qaeda then you are very welcome because he was a legitimate leader of Jihad.’”
Her cousin, Hafsa Kanjwal appeared at a pro-Hamas rally and at foreign conference led by a former
Palestinian Islamic Jihad board member, and called for Muslims
operating in America to “put a check on American exceptionalism.”
Finally she’s an instructor at The People’s Forum: an organization
funded by a Chinese Communist based operation whose offices face a “red banner that reads, in Chinese, ‘Always Follow the Party’ and a “plate depicting Xi.”
How exactly does someone a few degrees of separation from Al Qaeda go
on to serve as Chief of Staff for the Pentagon Comptroller?
The exposure of Yousra Fazili comes only a few weeks after it was revealed
that Ariane Tabatabai, the Chief of Staff to the Assistant Secretary of
Defense for Special Operations and Low Intensity Conflict, had worked
with an operation set up by the Iranian government and coordinated her
congressional testimony with them. Despite published emails between Tabatabai and Iran, the Pentagon allowed her to keep her position and her security clearance.
“We have confirmed that Ms. Tabatabai’s employment and clearance
processes were carried out in accordance with all appropriate laws and
policies,” a Department of Defense official replied to Sen. Joni Ernst.
Two Muslim Pentagon Chiefs of Staff were shown to have worked with
enemy nations. And the Defense Department and the Biden administration
has chosen to keep them on the job.
When associates and employees of enemy governments that are tied to
Islamic terrorism can waltz in and take high-ranking positions in the
Department of Defense, national security no longer means anything. The
Pentagon has been infiltrated by political hires who would have been
disqualified from even being considered twenty years ago on the basis of
their associations, their views and their links to enemy governments.
Now Iran and Qatar can plant their employees and catspaws at key
positions throughout the Pentagon. And we wonder why our intelligence
and our operations are so badly compromised.

THE KORAN
BIBLE OF THE MUSLIM TERRORIST:
“The
Wahhabis finance thousands of madrassahs throughout the world where
young boys are brainwashed into becoming fanatical foot-soldiers for the
petrodollar-flush Saudis and other emirs of the Persian Gulf.” AMIL IMANI
Koran 2:191 "s lay the unbelievers wherever you find them" Koran 3:21 "Muslims must not take the infidels as friends" Koran 5:33 "Maim and crucify the infidels if they criticize Islam" Koran 8:12 "Terrorize and behead those who believe in scriptures other than the Koran" Koran 8:60 " Muslims must muster all weapons to terrorize the infidels" Koran 8:65 "The unbelievers are stupid, urge all Muslims to fight them" Koran 9:5 "When the opportunity arises, kill the infidels wherever you find them" Koran 9:123 "Make war on the infidels living in your neighborhood" Koran 22:19 "Punish the unbelievers with garments of fire, hooked iron rods, boiling water, melt their skin and bellies" Koran 47:4 "Do not hanker for peace with the infidels, behead them when you catch them".
From Munich to Gaza to America
Terrorist’s grandson, now in the U.S. Navy, touts “original glow that once graced the face of Islam.”
“I grew up in the
crosshairs of the Israeli-Palestinian war in Gaza” and “the threat of
terrorism has cast a long shadow on my life.” Even so, to impose “even
more intensive vetting on the entire Muslim world would be dangerous
and unconstitutional.” American Muslims “are proven to be peaceful
contributors to our American economy and way of life,” and “moderate
Muslims, like my friend and former colleague Rumana Ahmed, can help protect American lives and restore the original glow that once graced the face of Islam.”
Who is this who touts the “original glow”
of Islam, lived in the shadow of terrorism, and grew up the crosshairs
of the “Israeli-Palestinian war” in Gaza? It’s Ammar Campa-Najjar,
writing in a February 25, 2017 commentary in The Hill, which bills him as “a Mexican-Palestinian American and former Obama campaign and administration official.” But there’s more to the man.
Ammar is the grandson of Muhammad
Abu Yousef al-Najjar, mastermind of the Palestinian terrorists who
abducted, tortured and murdered 11 Israeli athletes at the Munich
Olympics in 1972. Maybe that’s the “shadow” of terrorism he was talking
about. Ammar is also the son of Palestinian Authority official Yasser Najjar. Ammar claims his father “migrated from the Middle East to America on a student visa,” met a Mexican-American lady named Abigail and raised a family in San Diego county, but there’s a problem here.
Back in 2003 Linda Gradstein of National Public Radio interviewedYasser al-Najjar at his office in Gaza,
where he served with the Palestinian Authority. Yasser was married,
with four children but his wife and children were not named. After the
Israelis killed Muhammad Abu Yousef al-Najjar, Yasser was a fugitive.
Son Ammar has not documented Yasser’s move to the United States, or
claims that he earned an MBA from San Diego State and started several
clothing boutiques.
“I attended an
Islamic school in San Diego as a child,” Ammar told The Hill. “The
school was part of a mosque called Masjid Abu Bakr, where hundreds of
people prayed and maintained strong relations with local elected and law
enforcement officials.I knew of three men at
that mosque, Khalid al-Mihdhar, Nawaf al-Hazmi and Hani Hanjour, who
were issued visas. . . Those three men were among the 19 terrorist
hijackers who carried out the September 11 attacks in 2001.” So maybe the relations with politicians and law enforcement were not that strong, and Ammar may have “known of” other terrorists in Gaza.
Why anybody would move there from San Diego, “America’s finest city,” is hard to fathom, but Ammar told the San Diego Union-Tribune he “lived in Gaza from ages 8 to 12.”
Born in 1989, that would put Ammar’s Gaza stretch from 1997 to 2001,
year of the 9/11 attack and “five years after President Bill Clinton got
the Israelis and Palestinians to sign a peace agreement. Sadly, that
peace didn’t last, and Gaza devolved into a war zone — the Second
Intifada.” The former Obama official wasn’t done.
“As a proud Mexican Palestinian American,
witnessing a U.S.-brokered peace collapse into a U.S.-funded war was an
early lesson on how fragile things can be. I remember the first night
of bombing, the entire city of Gaza had its electricity cut off, and I,
my mom, stepmom, dad and younger brothers hid in the dark corner of a
cold kitchen floor as Apache helicopters and F-16s leveled surrounding
buildings and carpet-bombed the town for hours.”
Note the joint presence of “mom and
stepmom.” Ammar has two mommies, and a daddy who allegedly “migrated to
the USA on a student visa” but is also a Palestinian Authority official in Gaza. His own time in Gaza, Ammartold Rolling Stone, was “a veryObamaesque,Dreams of Your Father, situation.”
Despite attendance at an Islamic school
that was part of a mosque, Ammar comes billed as a Christian. His mother
is Catholic and as a teenager, “he spent time as a teenager living with a great-uncle who is a Catholic priest,” but the priest is not named or interviewed in the story. It’s not clear when, exactly, Ammar abandoned Islam but the story stuck. It was hardly the only example of deceptive behavior.
As La Prensa San Diego revealed, the Islamic student once went by the name Ammar Yasser Najjar, and only changed it to Ammar “Campa-Najjar” when he ran for Congress in 2018. Rolling Stone billed him as a “a rockstar Democratic candidate.”
He ran as a progressive and lost to Duncan Hunter. In 2020, the son of
Yasser Najjar styled himself as a moderate conservative and lost to
Darrell Issa.
The congressional loser had never held
public office or served on any local community board, commission, or
civic group in the city of Chula Vista, near San Diego, where he ran for
mayor in 2022. Despite more than 700 mail-in ballots with either
non-matching or missing signatures, the Obama Democrat lost to Republican John McCann. In August, the former Obama White House official joined the U.S. Navy.
“Today, in front
of my family, friends, my grandmother in heaven and God, I stood aboard
the USS Midway and swore an oath to preserve, protect and defend our
nation as a commissioned United States Navy Officer,” Ammar told People Magazine, quoting Winston Churchill that as a reservist he was now “twice the citizen.”
The former Ammar Yasser Najjar claimed he first
tried to join up at age 17, but as People’s Virginia Chamlee explained,
“his mother refused to sign off on the decision, due to his father
being away at the time.” In similar style, Ammar told Robin Abcarian of
the Los Angeles Times that “he’d always wanted to serve in the military, and even tried to enlist at 17 before his mother put a stop to it.”
Neither journalist specified whether that was the mother or the step-mother Ammar previously mentioned. And no comment from Yasser Najjar, the Palestinian Authority official in Gaza who somehow migrated to the USA on a student visa.
“The military doesn’t have the luxury of
getting into these cultural disputes trying to divide us,” the officer
told Abcarian. “Where some people have seen my heritage, my background
as a liability, the Navy says those are not liabilities, they are
assets. A command of the Arab language, fluent in Spanish, having lived
in the Middle East, my cultural competency gives us a strategic
advantage. . . My Arabic is actually more fluent than my Spanish.”
Abcarian found Campa-Najjar to be
somewhat “guarded” but accepted his contention that he was done with
politics, “at least for now.” The columnist might cast a glance at his Wikipedia entry.
“Ammar Campa-Najjar is a United States naval officer,” it begins, as though he had graduated Annapolis and commanded a carrier.
His father Yasser Najjar “was an important internal critic of
Palestinian hardliners” and during his time in Gaza, “he attempted to
counteract the rising influence of Hamas.” Grandfather Muhammad Abu Yousef al-Najjar “has been the subject of significant controversy,” and so on.
On Sunday, nearly a thousand pro-Hamas demonstrators gathered in San Diego, but if the newly minted naval officer showed up, he did not speak to reporters. At this writing, his former White House colleague Rumana Ahmed has also been on the quiet side.
“In 2011, I was hired, straight out of college, to work at the White House and eventually the National Security Council,” Ahmed told the Atlantic in 2017. In that role, Ahmed became senior adviser to Deputy National Security Advisor Ben Rhodes, a big-time promoter of the Iran deal. That was an easy sell to reporters, Rhodes quipped, because they “literally know nothing.”
If that seems a stretch, check out the establishment media reporting on the man formerly known as Ammar Nasser Najjar. He’sthe Palestinian Mexican-American with two mommies, who moved to Gaza. He’s the Islamic school student who became a Christian and seeks to restore “the original glow that once graced the face of Islam.”
The rockstar Democratic candidate is in the Navy now, and a Senate seat is up for grabs. As Donald Trump likes to say, we’ll have to see what happens.

Sexual chaos in the Arab world drives some of its grotesque violence
During the attack on
Israel, a member of Hamas grabs a Jewish girl. He lies down on top of
her, comes to orgasm, stands up, and shoots her. What kind of sadistic
twists were already present in his head that allowed the softness of
sexual relations to be entwined with the violence of murder?
No one asks this question in America
because it means looking deeper than most people want. But it needs to
be asked since it is central to the problem of future peace or the lack
thereof. Everyone knows there are cultural differences between people.
Do some differences make it impossible to co-mingle groups? Yes, indeed!
It is particularly true in the case of Arabs and Jews.
Sexuality
between family members among the Jews is seen as destructive to family
unity. Violations are condemned roundly. Among Arabs, sexuality is part
of the family package. The most common manifestation is polygamy. Most
American women expect exclusivity in marriage. It provides financial and
social security, as well as clear lines of inheritance for their
children.
This is a complex topic since most Arab males do not
engage in polygamy. Nonetheless, it is incumbent upon Westerners to
understand that polygamy may be the force that most disrupts relations
between Arabs and Westerners, because it causes an unnatural social
condition where there is a chronic shortage of women. If one man takes
four wives, three men go without. It is an arithmetical inevitability.
In the olden days, this problem was
addressed by attacking neighboring villages to kill the men and take the
girls and women. Always the strong killing the weak. Moreover, these
extra men made up a willing army to go to war since success led to
family life, status, and a slave to keep house while the husband sat at
the coffee house with his friends. This situation is best described as
“women as objects.”
For
the man, sexual appetite was always to be fulfilled upon demand. This
made for some really unhappy women. Failure of the woman to comply or be
happy about it could easily lead to the entrance of a new and younger
wife. All children belonged to the men, so divorce would lead to women
alone on the street, bereft of their children and means of support.
Now,
we get to the hub of things. All men of every culture have always been
exempt from diaper changing. There has always been the small but not
zero possibility of his making the child into a sexual object—boy or
girl—especially if marital relations were strained. Unfortunately, this
insight is true of women as well, especially under conditions of
unhappiness.
There is also the issue of the ever-present pure
ignorance of the consequences of early sexual arousal. The infant,
toddler, or child—as an object—is not in control of the stimulation of
the one or the other parent. It is my contention that such early
stimulation creates a form of confusion of sexuality and violence on the
one hand and affection on the other.
Non-sexual affection draws
the youngest members of the family closer together with parents,
siblings, cousins, aunts, and uncles, and even the occasional strangers
who enter the house like family friends. However, if sexuality is
imposed by others (including all of the above), that makes people,
particularly children, afraid of one another. Sex is always an
imposition. Thus, the need for affection that undercuts the innate
violence of the sexual act.
The thesis here is that the dysfunctional Arab family reflects how sexuality is manifest in the early lives of the children.
I
want to be very clear: In general, good, nice, and kind people
(including Muslims) have been protected socially and sexually during
their earliest years. Later, such people can offer affection and
manifest altruism.
Children who have been abused socially and/or
sexually from infancy will show various levels of pathology as adults.
This is a simplified understanding of adult psychopathology that can
arise from multiple sources, but being used as a sexual object early in
life is a form of violence that makes later sexual expression a problem
for the individual, perhaps without an easy, or even any, solution.
Most males in the Western world could not
seek affection and closeness during sexual expression and then stand up
and kill their partners. In the United States, we lock people up who
rape and then murder.
Social structures that induce anger between
men and women become a systematic source of their individual
pathologies. Here, the social pathology is a mixing of sexuality and
violence. Thus, war and rape have always been linked.
Still, there
are differences between cultures. A nitwit whose name I’ve deliberately
forgotten wrote a master’s thesis at Hebrew University arguing that
Israeli soldiers do not rape Arab women during war because the soldiers
are racist.
No, nitwit! The confusion between anger and sex is the
pathological state. Gazan men apparently have received the lion’s share
of this confusion from their earliest childhoods, as demonstrated by
their actions in Israel. This conflation of sex and anger rolls from one
generation to the next with permission and support from cultural norms.
Islamic Jew-Hatred, Dhimmitude and the Doctrine of Sacred Space
For certain entities, the existence of Israel - and Jews - is intolerable.
In the wake of the savage HAMAS attack
against Israel on the morning of 7 October 2023, many are waking up to
its genocidal intent against Jews. Understandably, there are memories of
pogroms past, of the horrific toll of the Holocaust, and references to
“Nazis” and the “Einsatzgruppen”.
This time, though, as Israel prepares to do what must be done to wipe
out the HAMAS presence in Gaza, we need to understand exactly who and
what it is: an Islamic terror group, dedicated to the destruction of the
Jewish State of Israel and the killing of as many Jews as possible. We
might start with the HAMAS Covenant,
published in 1988, the year that HAMAS was formally established. Its
opening lines tell us exactly who HAMAS is and why it exists:
“Israel will exist and will continue to exist until
Islam will obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it” (The
Martyr, Imam Hassan alBanna, of blessed memory).
We’ll note here that this quote is from Hassan al-Banna, the 1928
founder of the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt. And here is the motto of the
Muslim Brotherhood:
‘Allah is our objective; the Prophet is our leader; the
Quran is our law; Jihad is our way; dying in the way of Allah is our
highest aspiration.’
Why this fanatical hatred? We find the answer in the Qur’an, in the
Islamic doctrine of Sacred Space, and the laws of dhimmitude. The
Qur’an, believed by Muslims to be the literal word of Allah (the Arabic
word for “God”), lays the foundation for HAMAS’ visceral Jew-hatred.
Those who reject (Truth) among the People of the Book
[Christians and Jews]…will be in Hell-fire…They are the worst of
creatures. (Q 98:6)
But when the forbidden months are past, then fight and kill the infidels wherever ye find them… (Q 9:5)
Curses were pronounced on those among the Children of Israel who rejected Faith [Islam]…(Q 5:78)
The HAMAS Covenant also includes this quote from the hadith collection of Sahih Muslim:
Judgment Day will not come until you fight the Jews and
kill them. The Jews will hide behind stones and trees, and the stones
and trees will call: Oh, Muslim, oh servant of Allah, there is a Jew
behind me, come and kill him…
Then there is the historical record, which informs us of the Islamic
institution of dhimmitude and the doctrine of Sacred Space. As the
armies of Islam overran formerly Christian and Jewish lands in the 7th century, there were too many to kill or convert; and so, beginning with the 638 CE Pact of Umar (the 2nd
Caliph), the institution of the Ahl al-Dhimma was established to
subjugate Christians and Jews to a rigid set of rules that would
relegate them to a legally enforced inferior status intended to be so
onerous as to compel them to convert to Islam.
Along with dhimmitude, the Muslim conquests developed a concept known
as “Sacred Space”. That is, the Dar al-Islam (House of Islam) must
conquer all the Dar al-Harb (House of War) because according to Islam,
the entire world belongs to Islam and must be conquered and subjugated
to it. Once conquered and/or occupied, such land is waqf, forever
endowed to Muslims by Allah. Any such waqf, if ever lost to Islam, must
be fought for by jihad until it is re-conquered.
As we look at the modern-day Jewish State of Israel, we can see that
the Jewish people not only are no longer dhimmis but have established a
powerful country in their ancestral homeland. These remarkable
accomplishments are intolerable to the forces of jihad and help to
explain why HAMAS and other Islamic terror groups like it have been so
intent upon wiping Israel from the face of the map.
Since
the terrorist attack on Israel by Hamas, college campus rallies in
support of the barbaric act have erupted across the nation. Although
world focus is on Israel, this is only one part of the global plan of
Islam.
Islamic
law -- Shari’ah -- requires Jihad to be waged as "warfare against
non-Muslims” until all the world is under Islamic law. Jihadist
doctrine is advanced by both violent techniques and “civilization
jihad,” a stealth subversive effort to destroy Western civilization from
within a nation by its own hand. The pattern of Islam is to use the
courts, schools, art museums, and other major institutions including
outreach to churches to infiltrate, gradually introduce Shari’ah, and
then finally take over a nation. American education is a prime target.
For
decades, billions of petro-dollars have been donated to American
universities for the purpose of altering public opinion and U.S. foreign
policies. This subversive shaping of the mindset has reached a wide
swath of American society through students studying for careers in
banking, business, law, public health, education, and urban
studies. Through university outreach, programs on the Middle East are
developed and provided to K-12 and adult education students.
Gifts
to American universities are designed also to enhance the image of the
Arab states and their rulers, effectively tamping down public criticism
of Muslim hostility to Jews as well as Christians. One of the more
recent donors and the largest investor in universities, Qatar has
an image problem as a funder and supporter of both terrorist groups
-- Hamas and the Muslim Brotherhood -- and as home base to the rabidly
anti-Israel, anti-American Al Jazeera.
Former English diplomat John Kelly noted,
“They expect a return upon their donations to institutions of learning
and their subsidies to publishing houses; whether it be in the form of
subtle propaganda on behalf of Arab or Islamic causes, or the
preferential admission of their nationals, however unqualified... or the
publication of the kind of sycophantic flim-flam about themselves and
their countries which now clutters sections of the Western press and
even respectable periodical literature.”
Arab donations between 1986 and October 2022 totally nearly $11 billion with
more than 10,000 contracts and gifts spread across 273 institutions.
The total is grossly underestimated because numerous donations have gone
unreported. Beginning with Aramco’s funding in the early 1950s, donors from Arab states have
quietly made contributions to American universities, hijacking the
field of Middle East Studies with faculty, including college presidents,
who have been bought for 30 pieces of silver and are using their
positions to advance political agendas that are pro-Arab/Palestinian,
anti-Israel, and pro-radical Islam.
Though
the far Left has never had any real political power, it has controlled
the social and cultural narrative. During the summer of 2020, academics
defended looting and/or supported the destruction of the nuclear family
while Fortune 500 CEOs did nothing. The most extreme actions actually
enjoyed greater publicity.
The
brutality of Hamas in murdering babies, raping women, and taking the
elderly and disabled as hostages was cheered on by left-wing student
groups. Academics also weighed in. A Cornell University professor
speaking at a recent pro-Palestine rally called the attacks
“exhilarating.” A Stanford University instructor told her Jewish
students to stand in a corner like “Israel does to Palestinians.” Other
academics have posted their support on social media. Administrators
remained silent.
Now
it seems the radical Left has gone too far. People are standing up and
saying enough is enough. It began with Bill Ackman, the hedge-fund
billionaire who learned of an open letter signed by over 30 student
groups from Harvard -- his alma mater -- that blamed Israel instead of
Hamas for the murders. Ackman and several other CEOs contacted Harvard
to get a list of the members of each Harvard organization that issued
the letter. They are refusing to hire anyone who signed the letter.
Job offers to some graduates already have been rescinded.
Marc Rowan,
the chairman of the board of overseers at Wharton who donated $50
million to the school in 2018, called for donors to cease any further
donations until the university’s leadership changes. Vahan Gureghian, a member of the University of Pennsylvania’s board of trustees, resigned. The Huntsman family announced they have closed their checkbook on all future giving to Penn. David Magerman, who helped build the trading systems of Renaissance Technologies, said he will cease funding to Penn. The 80th richest man in the world, Israeli billionaire Idan Ofer and his wife Batia, resigned from the executive board of Harvard’s Kennedy School of Government.
Others followed. Playboycut ties with the porn star Mia Khalifa for cheerleading the massacres in Israel.
Meanwhile,
all those rabid Harvard activists who gleefully signed a pro-murder
statement were in a blind panic and tried to explain away their
participation, saying they did not read the letter. Sure. Are we to
believe that very smart Harvard students do not read before they sign?
The public should beware of Harvard-educated lawyers. At the end, all
students removed their names. They are learning that actions do have
consequences.
First
there was Bud Light and then Target, followed by the snowballing
scandal surrounding Ibram Kendi’s antiracism center at Boston
University. With the loss of donors, university administrations
suddenly see the virtue in institutional neutrality. Harvard,
Northwestern, and Stanford’s presidents have issued statements that they
will cease responding to political, geopolitical, or social issues that
do not directly impact the core mission of their universities. They
should have adopted this policy long ago. These cocky academics seem to
care little that the public has lost confidence in higher education and,
more especially, in elite universities.
As
Ackman pointed out, “None of these institutions are solvent without the
support of their alumni. Perhaps this is the beginning of a catalyst
for change.” The question is whether it is too late for these arrogant
institutions to regain their reputations.
Most
important is that no foreign money be allowed to flow into our
educational institutions to shape the mindset of students and influence
American policy to support a radical ideology. Since its birth in 1987,
Hamas has declared its aim is to destroy Israel. The fact is this
Islamic terrorist group intends to annihilate not just Jews but anyone
who is not a Muslim.
The
pro-Hamas rallies where students celebrated the mass murders and
beheadings show just how successful the indoctrination has been. Since
the United States shares with Israel the greatest number of the world's
Jewish population, allowing radical Islamic indoctrination of students
creates an enemy within and poses a dire threat to our national
security.
The City University of New York has been transformed from a public
university that let poor kids get a good education and succeed. They
boast about how many Nobel laureates they’ve produced, but those days
are behind them. Instead, CUNY has become an antisemitic terrorist
hellhole where over 80 faculty members
are willing to sign on to a statement saying that the murder of elderly
women and children, the rape of women and the kidnapping of children is
a “military operation”.
The petition begins with…
“We, the undersigned CUNY staff and faculty, strongly
object to Chancellor Félix Matos Rodríguez’s efforts to censure
expressions of solidarity with the Palestinian people. In advance of
anti-apartheid rallies planned on multiple campuses, the Chancellor
claimed that the organizers would ‘glorify Saturday’s [Oct. 7] violence
and celebrate the killings, injuries and capture of innocent people.’
This baseless, prejudicial statement reproduces the racist, Islamophobic
rhetoric that has accompanied the drumbeat for war.”
And then the petition proves that the chancellor was right as it argues that…
“there is also no equivalence between the October 7
military operation by Hamas and the subsequent military attack by the
Israeli state, and certainly no equivalence to the systemic and the
violence of Israeli settler colonialism.”
A military operation aimed at massacring and kidnapping civilians.
Signatories to this pro-rape and pro-kidnapping children petition include Marc Lamont Hill, who had already previously exposed his support for kidnapping and killing Jewish teens.
Other signatories include Jonathan Buchsbaum, a media studies
professor and author of “Cinema and the Sandinistas: Filmmaking in
Revolutionary Nicaragua” (I believe he was the protagonist of a Charlie
Kaufman novel), Anna Stetsenko, a “developmental psychologist” from
Russia, and Ellen Dichner, the Chief Counsel to the Chairman of the
National Labor Relations Board under the Obama administration.
Meanwhile, Northwestern University’s Asian American Studies Programs issued an open letter
condemning the “visible Islamophobia expressed in pro-Israel posters on
NU’s campus falsely claiming that ‘Hamas is ISIS'” and described Hamas
as a “political group”.
These are just a few examples of the mask coming off academia and the ugly vileness being revealed.
The enemies of civilization are showing themselves for who they are.
The crimes they’re defending are indefensible, but from the gulags to
Pol Pot to the suicide bombs, they were always indefensible.

Congress Can End the Nonprofit Status of Pro-Hamas Groups
The IRS has allowed Pro-Hamas groups to benefit from tax-exempt status.
“We give our heart, we give our life, we give our blood to the Palestinian people,” Manolo De Los Santos of The People’s Forum declared at a pro-Hamas rally in Manhattan. “Continue to resist. We stand with you. By any means necessary.”
“By any means,” the crowd chanted. A code phrase for violence and terrorism.
“We will use whatever we have in our hands,: De Los Santos continued.
“A rock or something else. We will defend the Palestinian people.”
DeSantos had previously tweeted
a celebratory Hamas video using paragliders and then armed terrorists
attacking Israel with the message, “Long Live the Palestinian
Resistance!”
In an official statement, The People’s Forum described the Hamas
attacks that murdered over 1,000 Israeli civilians, the elderly, women
and children, as an “unprecedented liberation struggle” by “Palestinian
resistance factions”.
When it isn’t supporting the rape of women and the kidnapping of
children, it’s promoting North Korea, Venezuela, and Cuba, and
celebrating the “hopes and aspirations of more than a million people who
joined the American Communist Party.”
And The People’s Forum is also a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt nonprofit approved by the IRS.
If the name sounds like a Chinese Communist front group, that’s because
it’s funded by a Maoist millionaire named Neville Roy Singham who
operates out of China and funds a network of organizations like The
People’s Forum. Singham’s office faces “a red banner that reads, in
Chinese, ‘Always Follow the Party.’ Resting on a shelf is a plate
depicting Xi.”
Also there at the pro-Hamas rally in Manhattan was Nodutdol: a
pro-North Korean organization demanding the “reunification” of Korea.
South Korea has accused
Nodutdol of being controlled by North Korea. The organization has
claimed that North Korean defectors who risked their lives to escape are
guilty of “imperialist propaganda” and that claims of atrocities are
fictional. Despite that Nodutdol is embedded within the DSA and often takes part in pro-terrorist rallies.
On the same day as the Hamas attack, Nodutol tweeted “power to every
Palestinian fighting for their freedom, and glory to every martyr who
dies fighting. For every martyr that falls, a new one will rise.” Like
The People’s Forum, Nodutol is a 501(c)(3) IRS approved tax-exempt
charity.
The David Horowitz Freedom Center had previously profiled the
IRS decision to continue providing tax-exempt status to the Alliance
for Global Justice, a Marxist organization, which uses that status to
sponsor Black Lives Matter chapters, the Free Mumia Abu-Jamal Coalition
in support of a cop killer, as well as bail funds whose mission is
freeing rioters and criminals.
Germany has announced that it’s also banning
Samidoun as part of its crackdown on all Hamas activities in Germany.
Despite that the IRS has yet to pull AFGJ’s tax-exempt status.
Samidoun responded to the Hamas attacks by promoting banners
featuring “solidarity with Al Aqsa Flood”, the name of the Hamas
operation, a rally calling for “solidarity with the heroic resistance”,
and another one urging “let’s celebrate”.
Samidoun’s support for Hamas atrocities, including the kidnapping of
Israeli women and children, was made clear in its Instagram post
boasting that, “the resistance” is “seizing occupation settlers” and
hailed the “resistance operation, titled the Al-Aqsa Flood by Mohammed
Deif, commander in chief of the Izz el-Din al-Qassam Brigades, the
military wing of Hamas”.
There is no ambiguity whatsoever about Samidoun’s support for even
the worst crimes of Hamas. Despite that it continues to benefit from
AFGJ’s tax-exempt status which allows its fiscal sponsor to take in
money from George Soros, the Ben and Jerry’s Foundation, and others.
The David Horowitz Freedom Center also exposed the support for
Hamas by chapters of Students for Justice in Palestine. The national
organization of Students for Justice in Palestine praised the Hamas
attacks as a “historic win for the Palestinian resistance” and put out a
‘toolkit’ which explained that the Jewish victims were “not civilians”
and could be freely targeted. Its poster for a ‘Day of Resistance’
featured an image of the paraglider that Hamas terrorists had used to
massacre and rape young Israelis at a music festival.
Despite its support for terrorism, Students for Justice in Palestine enjoys nonprofit status.
The Freedom Road Socialist Organization, a Marxist-Leninist group,
which promotes pro-terror content through its Fight Back News,
celebrated the Hamas attacks, including the attacks on civilian
communities which it cheered as “Palestinians have taken over the armed
settlements that surround Gaza.”
“The Islamic Resistance Movement (HAMAS), the Popular Front for the
Liberation of Palestine, Palestinian Islamic Jihad, the Democratic Front
for the Liberation of Palestine and so many others represent the
aspirations of a free people, Palestinians who insist on the end to
occupation. Freedom Road Socialist Organization rejects the notion that
freedom fighters are terrorists. We are proud to stand with the
resistance,” it concluded.
The Communist group is funded through the Lucy Parsons Center, a
radical bookstore in New York City named after a Communist activist,
which enjoys nonprofit status. also issued a statement to “celebrate
Palestinian Resistance!”
These are only a few of the examples of IRS approved 501(c)(3)
nonprofit groups or those funded by them celebrating Hamas atrocities.
This is in clear violation of the tax code which bars such activities.
IRS regulations specifically state that “exempt purposes may
generally be equated with the public good, and violations of law are the
antithesis of the public good”. They clearly lay out that, “violation
of constitutionally valid laws is inconsistent with exemption under IRC
501(c)(3)” and that “planned activities that violate laws are not in
furtherance of a charitable purpose”.
But the IRS has refused to enforce the rules and regulations against Islamic terrorists.
When Lori Lowenthal Marcus, a journalist, applied for tax exempt status for her pro-Israel group, the IRS informed her that it “has to give special scrutiny to organizations connected to Israel.”
Lori Lowenthal Marcus told Front Page Magazine
that, “One of the excuses given to Z Street by an IRS official was that
the IRS had to make sure we were not ‘engaged in terrorism’ because we
mentioned ‘terror’ in our mission statement. The part of Z Street’s
mission that mentioned terror? ‘We will not engage with, negotiate with
or appease terrorists.’”
Offered clear examples of organizations that actually support terror, the IRS has done nothing.
Congress however could change that by regulating nonprofit groups
that support terrorism. Taxpayers should not be subsidizing terrorists
and their propagandists. And the tax code on this matter should not
consist of general guidelines, but clear and unbreakable laws.
The IRS has failed to act. Congress can hold the IRS and pro-Hamas nonprofits accountable.
