In Germany, 300,000 Rejected Asylum Seekers Were Ordered To Leave
But guess what happened?
Germany has been suffering from a decade-long invasion by Muslim economic migrants. It was former Chancellor Angela Merkel who opened wide the doors in 2015; in that year almost a million Muslims poured into Germany, and each year since, hundreds of thousands of these Muslim migrants continue to enter the country, posing as refugees seeking asylum from persecution and death. The German government has rejected the asylum applications of about 400,000, and of these economic migrants, it has been unable to get the vast majority — 300,000 of them — to leave the country. What’s more, despite flouting the law, these 300,000 scofflaws are receiving benefits that ordinary Germans cannot obtain. More on this outrageous situation can be found here: “Merz’s claims that 300,000 rejected asylum seekers remain in Germany and are entitled to free healthcare vindicated by Welt fact check,” by Thomas Brooke, Remix News, September 28, 2023:
Germany’s opposition leader Friedrich Merz caused a stir this week as he sharply criticized the liberal federal coalition government’s migration policy, claiming that 300,000 rejected asylum seekers have not left the country and are now enjoying full benefits including free dental care.
Speaking on the “Welt Talk” program, Merz claimed that German voters were questioning why migrants whose asylum applications had been turned down were having their teeth remade at a time when ordinary Germans can’t get a dental appointment.
“The population, they are going insane, the people, when they see that 300,000 asylum seekers are rejected, do not leave, get the full benefits, get the full medical care,” Merz said.
“They get their teeth remade, and German citizens next door don’t get any appointments,” he added.
The CDU leader, whose party currently tops the opinion polls, called for the receipt of benefits for asylum seekers to be re-examined and told governing liberal politicians: “What you are doing here is a catastrophe for this country.”
When asylum seekers in Germany have their applications rejected, they are supposed to leave the country. Yet when they refuse to leave, not only are they not being forcibly sent back to their counties of origin, but they continue to receive the same generous benefits from the state that they arrived to exploit in the first place. The spectacle of these illegals getting all this support from the state, when they have no right to remain, has understandably maddened many Germans. In opinion polls they have been expressing ever greater support for the anti-Muslim migrant party, Alternative für Deutschland, which is now, after a spectacular rise, the second strongest political force in the country. And the CDU, which comes in first in the opinion, has moved rightward on Muslim immigration.
Members of the co-governing SPD and German Green Party leaped to the government’s defense on social media in response to the remarks.
Friedrich Merz deliberately plays groups off against each other, spreading misinformation in the process. In this way, not a single problem is solved, but hatred is stirred up. This is unworthy of a leader of a people’s party,” wrote Ricarda Lang, co-leader of the Greens, on X, formerly known as Twitter.
“Anyone who talks like Merz is usually with the AfD,” added Florian von Brunn, the chairman of the SPD in Bavaria.
What was Merz’s terrible remark? He stated the truth about rejected asylum seekers remaining in the country, a truth that the leftist parties, including von Brunn’s SPD, and the Greens, want to prevent from being known. Ricarda Lang of the Greens claims that Merz was “spreading misinformation” in order to “play groups off against each other.” She means that he stirs up German enmity toward these migrants who refuse to leave. Should the public not know what is going on? Is the government supposed to protect from public ire those who flout its laws? And notice how von Brunn, of the SPD, tries to call into question Merz’s forthrightness by claiming he sounds like someone from the AfD, a party that the leftists have tried to make the public believe is beyond the pale, when all it has done is dared to challenge the leftist support for Muslim migrants.
However, a fact check by the Die Welt newspaper published on Thursday suggests Merz’s remarks aren’t the misinformation the liberal government claims it to be.
The article states that 304,308 foreign nationals were required to leave Germany at the end of last year, of which 248,145 were classed as “tolerated people,” migrants who are obliged to leave the country but are unable to be forcibly deported by the authorities. This can be for a range of reasons including a lack of identification documents, a lack of cooperation from the country of origin, or medical reasons, the newspaper explained….
The fact check concludes that those who remain living in Germany after 18 months do “have access to the health system,” providing credibility to Merz’s claims….
Friedrich Merz provided not “misinformation,” but the unvarnished, and most disturbing, truth about these illegals whose applications for asylum were rejected and who nonetheless continue to defy the government by remaining in Germany. They — more than 300,000 of them — need to be forcibly removed from the country. And Merz also revealed in his speech that these 300,000, despite flouting the law, remain eligible to be covered by the health system, including free dental care that many ordinary Germans cannot afford. That’s why the leftists have been so alarmed; this is information that they want to keep hidden from the public.
The CDU chooses to steal the thunder of the AfD by claiming that it will restrict immigration and stiffen policies on who can claim asylum, rather than join in a coalition with the AfD. But the CDU need not worry about forming such a coalition; the AfD is now the second most popular party, and the leftist effort to demonize it as “far-right” has clearly failed. There is hope yet in Germany that with a government moving steadily rightward, run either by the CDU alone, or by a coalition including the CDU and the AfD, those 300,000 who have been asked to leave after their asylum applications were rejected will now be forcibly sent back to their countries of origin, and that in addition, no benefits of any kind — including medical and dental care — will be provided to those who remain in the country illegally. That’s what I would call a good start.
Hamas Hell
Will Hamas' sheer savagery awaken the West to the reality of Islam?
Last Sunday, throughout the Western world, supporters of Hamas – and, presumably, of its Iranian masters – gathered by the hundreds and thousands to celebrate Saturday’s genocidal attacks on citizens of Israel. In Salt Lake City, members of the Party for Socialism and Liberation danced. In Montreal, protestors shouted “Down, down, Israel! Free, free Palestine!” In New York, the Democratic Socialists of America (whose members include Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Rashida Tlaib) chanted “From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free!” and a bearded preacher screamed “This is the correct religion….We will not stop until it enters every home!”
In Washington, D.C., a crowd intoned “Fight for liberation, bring the whole thing down!” In Brighton, England, a speaker called the attacks “beautiful and inspiring.” In Sydney, the cry was “Gas the Jews!” In Rotterdam, in Atlanta, in the Swedish city of Malmö, in San Francisco, in one city after another, the brutal murder of women and children was cheered as the Palestinian flags waved in the autumn breeze.
Of course, Hamas’s actions on Saturday were far from the first example we’ve seen of Islamic hatred manifested on a massive scale. On 9/11, and on a number of other dark days since – at the Atocha railway station in Madrid in 2004, on the London underground in 2005, at the Boston Marathon in 2013, at the offices of Charlie Hebdo in Paris in 2015, at the Pulse nightclub in Orlando in 2016, on the Promenade des Anglais in Nice in 2016, at the Manchester Arena in 2017, and on many, many other occasions – naive Westerners were given the opportunity to wise up about the Religion of Peace.
Alas, millions still didn’t get it. The media saw to that. Duplicitous teachers and professors saw to that.
But Donald Trump got it. He wanted to put a brake on immigration from the countries most responsible for jihadist terror. He wanted to build a wall in order to prevent the entry of undesirables into the U.S. In return for setting forth these eminently reasonable objectives, he was branded a racist and xenophobe by the mainstream media, and his plans were stymied at every turn by his left-wing enemies in the D.C. swamp and the federal judiciary.
Trump did more. Where his predecessors had poured tons of cash into the Palestinian territories, thereby helping to fund terrorism, he cut off the flow – and was described as heartless. He canceled Obama’s Iran deal. Plus, making the most of America’s leverage, and ignoring the absurd logic of previous administrations (which had insisted on putting Palestinians at the center of every attempt to make peace in the Middle East and normalize Israel’s status among its Islamic neighbors), Trump engineered the Abraham Accords between Israel, on the one hand, and the United Arab Emirates, Morocco, and Bahrain, on the other – a historic achievement that the media, and all of his enemies, almost immediately dropped down the memory hole.
Trump put America first – and everything he did, or wanted to do, in relation to the Middle East was intended, above all, to make America safer. But when his enemies managed to install Joe Biden in the Oval Office, the first thing that the new President’s puppeteers did was to reverse Trump’s policies – thereby making an assault on Israel far more likely.
And if what happened in Israel on Saturday was horrible, what happened around the world on Sunday was deeply sobering. Because those demonstrations showed us just how many people living within the borders of free Western societies are, in fact, enemies of freedom and champions of jihad. Some of them are foreign-born. Some are Muslims. Some are ardent Communists, rabid anti-Semites, ignorant bien pensant types who think that being fellow travelers of Islam makes them virtuous. Some, like the “Queers for Palestine,” are outright fools who don’t seem to grasp that they are cheering for people who would draw and quarter them at the first opportunity.
Despite all the pro-Hamas demos on Sunday, there have been several developments that have made me feel as if something positive is happening. I can only hope I’m right.
First, this. In Britain, where shamelessly praising and placating Muslims has been official policy for years – and where critics of Islam have been thrown in prison – Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, speaking at a synagogue on Monday night, called Hamas “terrorists,” said that “there are not two sides to these events,” and praised Israel as the only democracy in the Middle East. These remarks felt…different. Very different.
I don’t know Charlotte Corbett of South Africa, but on Monday she wrote on Facebook that on Zulu, Xhosa, and Swati media (with “a combined listenership of over 40 million”) support for Israel, thanks largely to “the sharing of videos on social media,” has been well-nigh unanimous, with some listeners saying that they’ve “chang[ed] their opinion completely” about the situation in the Middle East.
Then there’s this. A few weeks ago, I dropped CNN and BBC from my cable TV package out of disgust with their relentless pro-left, anti-Trump propaganda. But I re-subscribed on Sunday so that I could see for myself how they were reporting on the war in Israel. On Monday, I was surprised by the degree to which the reporters and anchors on those networks were willing to call a spade a spade.
Early in the day, a CNN anchorwoman choked back tears as she introduced a report about the massacre at the Nova Music Festival in the southern Israeli desert. Later, the usually execrable Christiane Amanpour ended an interview with a young survivor of the music festival by saying: “Thank God you had a guardian angel.” Still later, Anderson Cooper actually called Hamas a “terror group” (not “fighters” or “militants”); after Becky Anderson interviewed a tearful young Israeli woman whose family was missing, Cooper was so palpably moved that he couldn’t speak for several very long seconds. Even later, Jake Tapper used the words “depravity” and “barbarism” and “inhumanity” and told an Israeli woman who runs an emergency medical services organization: “God bless you.”
These are people who, in reporting on jihadist terror over the years, could be counted on to downplay any mention of Islam, to ascribe reasonable-sounding motives to the evildoers, to practice moral equivalence, and to express concern about anti-Muslim “backlash.” I wondered: could it really be that this time around, the monstrousness of Hamas’s actions had finally awakened at least a few of Islam’s longtime media apologists and enablers? Or were they already preparing to pivot on a dime? Was this, in short, just a passing phase that would end when Israel started taking Gaza apart?
Alas, by Tuesday afternoon at least some of the CNN talking heads already seemed to be on the verge of returning to their old ways. As the Israeli journalist Caroline Glick pointed out on Tuesday evening, people in the West are quick to sympathize with Jews when they’re victimized, but they hate “courageous Jews…who stand up for themselves and their rights and fight for their country.”
Here’s a question: now that it’s clearer than ever that rabid fans of jihadist butchery proliferate in pretty much every major city in the Western world, will Western governments do anything at all about it? In the U.S., devout Catholics, parents who don’t want their kids taught transgender ideology and Critical Race Theory, January 6 “insurrectionists,” and Trump voters generally have been treated by the FBI as threats to American freedom and security. What are these noble G-men going to do about the armies of jihad enthusiasts who showed their true faces on Sunday and who truly are threats to American freedom and security?
On Tuesday, in the Dutch House of Representatives, Geert Wilders noted the pro-Hamas rallies that took place in several Dutch cities last weekend and asked Prime Minister Mark Rutte what he plans to do about these enemies within. That is precisely the question that should be posed to every Western leader: what are you going to do about this? What are you going to do to protect our country from experiencing an atrocity, sooner or later, like the one Hamas perpetrated on Saturday?
A couple more questions. If Donald Trump isn’t returned to the White House, is there any hope at all for an America containing heaven knows how many Hamas aficionados? If he is returned to the White House, will he be able to deport enough of these people to make a difference?
Finally, is it possible that the sheer savagery of Saturday’s attacks will awaken long-dormant citizens around the Western world to the reality of Islam and persuade them, at long last, to save their own countries before it’s too late? Or will this moment pass, just as the post-9/11 feeling of unity, rage, and patriotism did, and give way to yet more whitewashing, pusillanimity, self-censorship, and appeasement?

‘It Sickens me’: Democrat Slams Squad Members over Calls to Stop Israel Assistance amid Terror Attack
Alex Marlow: Joe Biden Bears Responsibility for Hamas’s Terror Attack on Israelis
We can’t say we weren’t warned. Joe Biden’s abject incompetence at foreign policy is legendary.
“Don’t underestimate Joe’s ability to fuck things up,” former President Barack Obama reportedly warned a fellow Democrat during the 2020 primary. Former Defense Secretary Robert Gates said in 2014 that Biden “has been wrong on nearly every major foreign policy and national security issue over the past four decades.”
Biden’s record somehow has only gotten worse since he became president.
His Afghanistan withdrawal strategy lead to chaos, horror, and death – including for children and American servicemen. His Ukraine/Russia policy undoubtedly played a major role in Putin’s decision to invade. China has routinely humiliated the U.S. on the world stage. Biden is more responsible than any single person for the humanitarian crisis at the U.S./Mexico border. His efforts to keep America’s Southern border opens confirms that, stunningly, national security is simply not a priority for the U.S. President.
So, yeah, he’s wrong on every major foreign policy decision.
He staffed his foreign policy machine with grifters, dissemblers, and ideologues. Those who didn’t spend the Trump years hawking their services to the highest bidder were perched at think tanks, where they were no less at the mercy of foreign interests. Just last week, the Pentagon announced a probe into a Biden appointee over her cozy relationship with Iranian officials while promoting the nuclear deal as a scholarly “expert.”
Once in power, these phony “experts” have rarely even hinted at progress toward Middle East peace of any kind.
In fact, the region has been markedly more chaotic than the relative calm of the Trump years.
Despite Biden’s campaign promise for a return to “normal” foreign policy, this weekend’s blood bath carried out against Israelis by Iran-backed Hamas terrorists may well be his biggest foreign policy failure. For starters, Biden’s team appears to have been blindsided by the attacks. This should shock no one, since these same people have spent most of his term wrangling with allies in Saudi Arabia and Israel while trying to appease Iran (which wants us all dead).
In fact, in response to Hamas attacking Israel, the United States’ Office for Palestinian Affairs called for Israelis to “refrain from violence and retaliatory attacks.” (They have since deleted the offending tweet.)
There is a word for granting moral equivalence between terrorists and their victims: evil.
Upon taking office, Biden chilled the U.S.-Saudi alliance. President Joe will rarely, if ever, defy his left-wing base, and his base had become obsessed with the murder of Jamal Khashoggi by the Saudis. This made it impossible for Biden to engage with the Saudis at a level necessary to forge a stronger peace in the region. Additionally, as my colleague Joel Pollak has noted, Biden paused arms sales to Saudi Arabia and “reopened negotiations with Iran toward a new nuclear deal over Saudi (and Israeli) objections.” Russia would be a key partner if a new Iran deal takes shape. The same people who told us that Vladimir Putin is the world’s greatest threat are perfectly fine pushing for a deal that elevates him on the world stage while empowering Iran. This is incoherent and irresponsible.
Since Biden has been president, the U.N. nuclear watchdog found that Iran has enriched uranium to near weapons-grade.
That doesn’t seem to bother Joe Biden, who recently released $6 billion in frozen funds to Iran as part of deal that included a prisoner swap. Iran funds and arms Hamas. Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi declared “victory” after the latest terror attack in Israel. While the $6 billion hasn’t arrived yet, and it is supposed to be used specifically for peaceful purposes, money is fungible and padding Iran’s bank account obviously frees them up to fund more terror. Only liars and demagogues would pretend this is not how money works. What’s more, people (and countries) spend when they have the expectation of money coming in; they don’t necessarily wait for the check to arrive. That’s basic economics.
In fact, the Iranian President has said he’ll do whatever he wants with the money.
He is laughing at us. Literally.
But wait, there is more: Biden inexplicably revoked the terrorist designation of the Iran-backed Houthi terrorist group. He also pulled U.S. support for Yemen’s government against the Houthi rebels — in a country that sits across a narrow strait from a key U.S. naval base in Africa. All of this strengthens Iran.
Meanwhile, Biden has been icy to Israeli President Benjamin Netanyahu, despite Bibi’s efforts to engage productively with President Joe. Biden and his team refused to meet with Israel’s duly elected government. They also restored funding to Palestine over internal objections that the aid could be diverted to Hamas.
U.S. weapons abandoned in Afghanistan — another catastrophe Joe Biden failed to see coming — are also believed to now be in the hands of Hamas.
As I document in my new book, Breaking Biden (the definitive book on Joe Biden’s record with a strong emphasis on his disastrous foreign policy), the Pentagon reported that the U.S. left $7.12 billion worth of military equipment in Afghanistan upon our departure. This includes aircraft, air-to-ground weaponry, other military vehicles, munitions, and communications equipment.
Here is some of what has reportedly fallen in the Taliban’s lap:
- 208 aircraft, including UH-60 Black Hawks and M-17 helicopters, between 2003 and 2016
- 61,000 military vehicles of all types, including more than 2,000 armored vehicles and Mine-Resistant, Ambush- Protected (MRAP) vehicles
- 258,000 rifles, including M-16s and AK-47s
- 56,000 machine guns
- 31,000 rocket-propelled and handheld grenade launchers
- 18,000 “gravity” bombs
- 16,000 aviation rockets
- 1,845 D-30 mortar systems with more than a million mortar rounds
- 224 D-130 howitzer artillery guns 30 million rounds of ammunition 17,400 night-vision devices
- 95 small drones
- body armor
- biometric security equipment
There were likely other beneficiaries of this bounty besides the Taliban. As I note in the book, sophisticated weaponry and convoys of military vehicles could easily have fallen into the hands of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps or other hostile actors in the region. Two months after the evacuation, in October 2021, U.S. supplies were already for sale by Afghani gun dealers.
It looks like we now know who got some of them: exactly the people we all feared.
As the disasters in the Middle East have mounted, the typically stubborn Biden has occasionally reversed course, meeting with Saudi Arabia’s Mohammed bin Salman (MBS) and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in recent weeks. We were finally back on track for an historic deal between Israel and Saudi Arabia, the framework for which was established under the Trump administration.
But this is all far too little, far too late. After Hamas’s terrorist attack, it would be a miracle if such a deal gets done now.
If it were in a vacuum, all the brutality would already be unthinkable. The systematic slaughter and murder of women. The preying on innocents. The stacking of bodies in the street. All of this is horrifying even for a region of the world known for constant war.
Yet it’s not in a vacuum. There is context. And the context is that the United States government under Joe Biden has signaled a weakening of our relationship with our allies in Israel, it has elected to fund the funders to terrorism, and it has repeatedly entertained a nuclear deal with the hideous Iranian regime that hopes to eviscerate both us and Israel.
We can’t say we weren’t warned.

10,000 Mourners Attend Funeral of Brazilian Woman, 24, Slaughtered by Hamas at Music Festival
An estimated 10,000 people answered a call to attend the funeral on Tuesday night of Bruna Valeanu, 24, a Brazilian immigrant to Israel murdered by Hamas terrorists during the ongoing assault on Israel that began on Friday.
Valeanu was a student at Tel Aviv University and had lived in Israel for ten years when, while attending the electronic music festival Universo Paralello on Saturday, radical Islamist terrorists killed her and hundreds of others. Valeanu reportedly only had two family members in Israel, her mother and sister Florica, so her family posted a request on social media for ten men to attend her funeral.
Jewish law requires a minyan – a quorum of ten men aged 13 or older – for an official prayer service to take place; her family feared that Valeanu’s funeral would be unable to reach a quorum given her small family circle in the country.
Instead of being too small to take place, the funeral attracted so many people that cars snaked across the roads leading to the funeral home for over a mile. Israeli media reported an estimated 10,000 people came to mourn Valeanu. Some who attended reported that police had to stop some attendees from entering due to the size of the crowd and fire safety concerns.
Eylon Levy, a former adviser to Israeli President Isaac Herzog who attended the event, reported that mourners eventually left their cars on the road and walked to pay their respects.
“The traffic jam was terrible, several people left the cars on the road and walked to the place,” Army reservist Yishai Bonnie, who drove an hour to attend the funeral, told the Brazilian newspaper Folha de Sao Paulo. “Most of them didn’t know her, but they were there, I believe, to express solidarity with the family and show that we are all together at this moment.”
Bonnie was among the thousands who said they saw a notice requesting the attendance of ten men on Whatsapp and answered the call.
The Brazilian government confirmed Valeanu’s death on Tuesday, following verification with the Israeli government and her family.
“The Brazilian government laments and expresses its profound grief at the death of the Brazilian citizen Bruna Valeanu, 24 years old, native of Rio de Janeiro, the second [Brazilian] victim of the attacks on October 7 in Israel,” the Brazilian Foreign Ministry announced. “In solidarity with the family and friends of Bruna, the Brazilian government reiterates its total repudiation of all acts of violence against civilians.”
The Brazilian government under socialist President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva has attracted widespread criticism for not identifying and condemning Hamas for its terrorist atrocities directly, and for responding to the attacks by reiterating Hamas’s demands for the establishment of a Palestinian country carved out of Israel.
“I was shocked by the terrorist attacks carried out today against civilians in Israel, which caused numerous victims. In expressing my condolences to the families of the victims, I reaffirm my rejection of terrorism in any of its forms,” Lula said in a statement published on Twitter. “I call on the international community to work to immediately resume negotiations that lead to a solution to the conflict that guarantees the existence of an economically viable Palestinian State, coexisting peacefully with Israel within safe borders for both sides.”
Hamas launched a full-scale attack on Israel from Gaza, which it has branded the “al-Aqsa flood,” on Saturday – the Jewish holiday of Shemini Atzeret, the final day of the annual High Holy Day cycle. The attack involved shooting thousands of rockets into civilian areas and butchering citizens in their own homes in residential areas.
WATCH: Video Shows Hamas Rockets, Paragliders, Terrorists Streaming into Israel
Izz ad-Din al-Qassam Brigades via StoryfulHamas terrorists targeted families, including the elderly and infants, and on many occasions filmed their killings and posted videos online of themselves desecrating corpses. On one occasion, a family reported finding out that their grandmother had been murdered after Hamas terrorists uploaded images of her dead body to her Facebook account using her phone. In another community attacked, Israeli soldiers reported finding the bodies of murdered babies.
“I’m talking to some of the soldiers and they say what they’ve witnessed as they’ve been walking through these different houses, these different communities,” i24news correspondent Nicole Zedeck narrated in a report on Tuesday. “Babies, their heads cut off. That’s what they said. Gunned down families — completely gunned down in their beds.”
Bruna Valeanu was confirmed dead at the grounds of the outdoor music festival Supernova Sukkot Gathering, an Israeli offshoot of the Brazilian electronic music festival series Universo Paralello, along with at least 260 other people.
“It was a massacre,” Yaniv, an emergency medic who responded to the scene at the festival, told reporters. “I’ve never seen anything like it in my life. It was a planned ambush. As people came out of the emergency exits, squads of terrorists were waiting for them there and just started picking them off.
Survivors described the Hamas assault as a scene out of a “horror movie.”
“They were going tree by tree and shooting. I saw people were dying all around. I was very quiet. I didn’t cry, I didn’t do anything,” Gili Yoskovich, a survivor, told the BBC. “But I was on the one hand breathing, saying: ‘OK, I’m going to die. It’s OK, just breathe, just close your eyes,’ because it was shooting everywhere, it was very very close to me. Then I heard the terrorists open a big van…and get more weapons from this car. They were in the area for three hours. No-one was there, no-one.”
The death toll of the ongoing Hamas assault stands at 1,200 people as of Wednesday.

Report: Israeli Soldiers Find Dead Babies After Palestinian Hamas Attack
Israeli soldiers discovered dead babies after the Palestinian Hamas invasion of the nation that began Saturday, i24news correspondent Nicole Zedeck recounted.
“I’m talking to some of the soldiers and they say what they’ve witnessed as they’ve been walking through these different houses, these different communities,” Zedeck reported in the town of Kfar Aza, Israel, which is located near the border of the Gaza Strip. Kfar Aza is a small town located in southern Israel between Netivot and Sderot.
“Babies, their heads cut off. That’s what they said,” she recalled. “Gunned down families — completely gunned down in their beds.”
CNN reported the gruesome nature of the mutilated bodies found (via Mediaite):
CNN correspondent Nic Robertson went into horrifying detail as he described the carnage Hamas militants left behind at the Kibbutz Kfar Aza in Israel.
…
Israeli forces were able to liberate the town after two days of fighting Hamas gunmen, but in a video Robertson posted to CNN’s Instagram account, he explained there were “bodies everywhere,” some of which were decapitated.
“There were so many murdered members of this Kibbutz,” he said. “Men, women, children, hands bound, shot, executed, heads cut.”
He later showed Israeli Major General Itai Veruv on air, who said:
What I saw, hundreds of terrorists in full armor, full gear, with all the equipment and all the ability make a massacre. Go from apartment to apartment, from room to room and kill babies, mothers, fathers in their bedrooms… They locked themselves in the protection rooms of their houses and people were out with their children and they killed them. They killed babies in front of their parents, and then killed the parents. They killed parents and we found babies between the dogs and the family killed before him. They cut heads of the people.
Veruv confirmed the report of murdered babies to the Jerusalem Post. “You see the babies, the mothers, the fathers, in their bedrooms, in their protection rooms, and how the terrorist kills them. It’s not a war, it’s not a battlefield. It’s a massacre, it’s a terror activity,” he said.
“It is something that I never saw in my life. It’s something that we used to imagine from our grandfathers, grandmothers in the pogrom in Europe and other places. It’s not something that happens in new history,” he added.
However, there were also reports that the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) did not confirm that babies were specifically beheaded.
Correspondent Zedeck echoed Veruv’s description of the dreadful plight. “This is nothing that anyone could have even imagined when you’re walking through here,” she said. “Baby cribs thrown to the side.”
Zedeck described the soldiers as comforting each other, many of whom she said were reservists who left their families behind to reclaim territory in Israel that Hamas held.
“Many of them reserves who jumped into action, leaving their own families behind as well, not knowing the sheer horror that they were about to come to. They say they’ve never experienced anything like this,” she said. “Some Israeli bodies are still here because the fighting in this community just ended.”
“Many of these troops are still going house to house, door to door,” she reported. “It’s taking them sometimes 30 minutes, 40 minutes because many of these houses also still have grenades in them, booby traps.”
“In fact, as we’re trying to get closer to some of these scenes, we’re being told, ‘No, no, get back,’ from some of these Israeli military because there are still grenades in the area,” Zedeck said.
In the United States, President Joe Biden scheduled a speech on the terrorist attack on Tuesday — his first personal statement since Saturday. Joe Biden’s schedule detailed no public appearances on Monday after news surfaced that Hamas terrorists killed nine Americans in Israel over the weekend. According to media reports, the Biden administration is scrambling to ascertain how many Americans the Hamas terrorists killed and possibly took hostage.
Joe Biden also spent Sunday evening partying with the first lady and White House staff, a press pool report stated Sunday evening around 6:00 p.m. The party was complete with a live band, likely paid for by the American taxpayer.Former President Donald Trump stated Monday in New Hampshire that the Biden administration’s agreement to transfer $6 billion in Iranian funds the United States had frozen in South Korea is in part responsible for the terror attack on Israel over the weekend.
“This war happened for three reasons: the allowing by the Biden administration of Iran to sell massive amounts of oil and making $60 billion dollars; the United States giving Iran $6 billion dollars ransom; and our country’s perceived weakness with an incompetent and corrupt leader, Joe Biden, who’s laughed at all over the world,” he said.
Meanwhile, Iran is threatening even more terror against Israel.
The Washington Examiner reports:
Khamenei predicted that Israeli military operations would backfire. “The calculation of the illegitimate regime and its supporters in this regard is also wrong,” he said. “The rulers and decision-makers of the Zionist regime and their supporters should know that these actions will bring a greater disaster upon them, and the Palestinian people, with a firmer determination, will slap their hideous faces harder in response to these crimes.”

‘It Sickens me’: Democrat Slams Squad Members over Calls to Stop Israel Assistance amid Terror Attack
Rep. Josh Gottheimer (D-NJ) blasted far-left Squad members, Reps. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) and Cori Bush (D-MO), over their support to end assistance to Israel in the wake of the Jewish state suffering a terror attack by Hamas, which has taken the lives of 1,200 people, with at least 2,700 injured.
Gottheimer, who is Jewish, said in a statement first reported by Fox News: “It sickens me that while Israelis clean the blood of their family members shot in their homes, they believe Congress should strip U.S. funding to our democratic ally and allow innocent civilians to suffer.”
Tlaib, the daughter of Palestinian immigrants, issued a statement on the terror attack in which she called on the Israeli government to remove the Gaza strip’s blockade. the Michigan Democrat also urged for what she described as the end to “the occupation.”
“As long as our country provides billions in unconditional funding to support the apartheid government,” she said.
Bush echoed Tlaib’s statement, calling on the U.S. to end its support for what she branded as the “Israeli military occupation and apartheid.”
Earlier this week,Rep. Ritchie Torres (D-NY) took Tlaib and Bush to task over their calls to cease U.S. aid to Israel
“U.S. aid to Israel is and should be unconditional, and never more so than in this moment of critical need,” Torres told Jewish Insider. “Congress must act decisively to provide Israel with whatever it needs to defend itself in the face of unprecedented terrorism.”
“Shame on anyone who glorifies as ‘resistance’ the largest single-day mass murder of Jews since the Holocaust. It is reprehensible and repulsive,” the New York Democrat added.
NO MATTER HOW THEY LIE AND STAGE THEMSELVES NOW, THE DEMOCRAT PARTY HAS LONG BEEN ANTI-SEMITIC AND PRO-MUSLIM DICTATORS. NAME ONE, OBAMA, CLINTON, FRANK BIDEN WHO HAS NOT BEEN ON THE TAKE OF THE SAUDIS!
Watch: Actor Michael Rapaport Scolds the ‘Sick F**ks’ Celebrating Hamas ‘Raping, Beheading, Murdering Children, Women, and Elderly in Israel’
Actor Michael Rapaport, himself Jewish, denounced those celebrating the terrorist attacks on Israel at the hands of Hamas over the weekend.
In a video posted on X, Rapaport expressly pointed out that people celebrating the attacks on Israel, which has thus far killed 1,000 mostly civilian Israelis, were sick and hateful.
“Only is it acceptable to celebrate publicly the destruction, the rape, the beheading, the murder of children, women, and the elderly when it comes to Jewish people,” he said. “Anybody that’s celebrating the terrorist attack that happened on Saturday is a sick fuck. You celebrate that. You cheer that. You dance in the streets, thinking that’s dope, that’s acceptable, that’s humane. You’re a sick fuck.”
Rapaport then referred to the Hamas terrorists as “animals” and that people should only be celebrating the fact that they were not the victims of such atrocities, such as raping women, kidnapping children, and murdering babies.
“They mowed down anything and everything in their path including Americans, non-Jews,” he said.
Rapaport then called out the LGBTQ people celebrating the attack, advising them to go over to Palestine and see how they would be treated.
“Everybody wants peace. Nobody wants death. But to celebrate any of this, you’re a sick fuck,” he concluded.

Tlaib Avoids Questions, Won’t Comment on Hamas Murdering Babies, Raping Women
On Tuesday, Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) avoided questions from Fox Business Network and Fox News Channel Correspondent on Hamas terrorists decapitating babies, murdering children, and raping women in Israel and why she still has a Palestinian flag outside her office.
Vaughn asked, “Congresswoman, Hamas terrorists have cut off baby’s heads and burned children alive. Do you support Israel’s rights to defend themselves against this brutality?” As Vaughn was beginning the question, Tlaib said, “I’m so sorry, I can’t right now.”
After Tlaib didn’t respond, Vaughn followed up, “You can’t comment about Hamas terrorists chopping off baby’s heads?”
Other questions from Vaughn that Tlaib avoided were, “Congresswoman, do you have a comment on Hamas terrorists chopping off baby’s heads?” “You have nothing to say about Hamas terrorists chopping off baby’s heads?” “Do you condone what Hamas has done, chopping off baby’s heads, burning children alive, raping women in the street?” The latter question drew a quizzical look from Tlaib.
Vaughn also asked, “You have no comment about children’s heads being chopped off?” And “Congresswoman, why do you have the Palestinian flag outside your office, if you do not condone what Hamas terrorists have done to Israel?”
After the Congresswoman got into an elevator, Vaughn also asked Tlaib, “Do Israeli lives not matter to you?”

Nolte: President Pallets-of-Cash Obama Pretends to Care About Dead Israelis
If your goal is a pile of dead Israelis, send money to Iran. The more money you give to Iran, the more dead Israelis. Former President Barack Obama knows this, and still he sent the terrorist state of Iran pallets of cash.
“On Tuesday, the Obama administration finally admitted something its critics had long suspected,” my colleague John Hayward reported in late 2016. “The entire $1.7 billion tribute paid to Iran was tendered in cash — not just the initial $400 million infamously shipped to the Iranians in a cargo plane[.]”
“[A]t the same moment,” Hayward adds, “four American hostages were released.”
Okay, so maybe I should amend my opening statement…
How’s this: If your goal is a pile of dead Israelis with a side order of more American hostages, send money to Iran…
Yeah, that’s better.
And here we sit seven years later with the direct consequences of Obama not only appeasing the world’s worst terrorists but funding the world’s worst terrorists.
The first consequence arrived when Iran grabbed more American hostages. Hey, why not? If Obama gave us $1.7 billion — with a “B,” surely, Iran thought, the corrupt and feckless Joe Biden would sweeten the deal. And sweeten the deal Biden did. Biden pledged to release $6 billion — with a “B” — to Iran in exchange for releasing those five hostages. Oh, but that wasn’t enough. No, no, no, no… To really sweeten the deal, Biden made that pledge to Iran on the anniversary of 9/11 — September 11, 2023.
And then, less than four weeks after Iran was handed a $6 billion — with a “B” — line of credit by Hunter’s Dad, Iran’s proxy army, Hamas, launched a second Holocaust.
Hamas, flush with pallets of cash, flush with Biden’s line of credit, flush with the knowledge America is run by appeasers willing to kneel before Islamic terrorists on the anniversary of 9/11, rained 5,000 rockets on Israel, pulled old women and children from their homes, raped young girls, shot parents in front of their kids, and desecrated the corpses… And all of it was proudly broadcast on the Internet, which prompted Democrats from all over America to express their support for the terrorists.
Here’s another number to remember… 72.
That’s how many hours it took for Obama to figure out what to say about 1,000 raped, murdered, and desecrated Israelis — 72.
Obama said nothing for 72 hours, to then tweet this:
All Americans should be horrified and outraged by the brazen terrorist attacks on Israel and the slaughter of innocent civilians. We grieve for those who died, pray for the safe return of those who’ve been held hostage, and stand squarely alongside our ally, Israel, as it dismantles Hamas. As we support Israel’s right to defend itself against terror, we must keep striving for a just and lasting peace for Israelis and Palestinians alike.
What was Barry waiting for? Was the horror not quite horrific enough over the weekend? Did the videos of rapes and massacres and desecrations not reach his enlightened tolerance level for such things?
I have an opinion… I’m still allowed to have an opinion, correct? I think he was hoping for an out. I think he was hoping for something in the arena of public opinion that would allow him to make a both-sides statement like the one we saw from Michigan Democrat Gov. Gretchen Whitler — oops, I mean Whitmer. I think Obama waited and waited until he couldn’t wait anymore and was forced to publicly call for dismantling the same Hamas he funded.
I want to be very, very, very clear about something.
When you fund Iran…
You fund Hamas…
And when you fund Hamas…
You fund piles of dead Israelis…
And the more money you give to Iran…
The more dead Israelis.
There’s no middle ground here.
There’s no, Oopsie, who knew?
Barry knew.
Barry hates Israel.
Joe knew.
Joe hates Israel.
Allow me to belabor the point…
Let’s say President Franklin Roosevelt funneled the equivalent of $7.7 billion to Adolph Hitler in 1940. What would that tell us about Roosevelt? What would that tell the European Jews about Roosevelt? What would that tell Germany about Roosevelt’s position on Hilter’s open desire to exterminate the Jews?
You Obama/Biden apologists need to explain the difference to me. Oh, wait, I can tell you the difference… By the time Obama’s pallets of cash reached Iran, Iran was a lot further along in killing Jews than Hitler was in 1940. Oh, and in 1940, Hitler was still trying to keep his Final Solution a secret. Iran has publicly boasted about exterminating Israel for five decades.
So, no, Barry doesn’t get a takeback.
Never forget that President Pallets-Of-Cash Obama enabled and encouraged horrors unseen since the Holocaust.
Never forget.

HARDLY SURPRISING GIVEN BLM IS THE FRONT FOR BLACK VIOLENCE, HATE AND RACISM IN AMERICA.
Black Lives Matter Organization Shows Support for Hamas Amid Terror Attack on Israel
Black Lives Matter Grassroots organization showed support for the Palestinian militant group Hamas on Tuesday as the terrorist group launched the deadliest attack on Jewish people since the Holocaust.
Black Lives Matter Grassroots, which represents 26 local BLM chapters across the country, issued a lengthy statement “in solidarity with the Palestinian people.”
Hamas launched a terror attack on Israel from Gaza over the weekend on the Jewish holiday of Shemini Atzeret, the final day of the annual High Holy Day cycle. The attack has resulted in over 900 deaths and at least 2,500 wounded, according to the latest reports. At least 11 Americans were also killed during the violent terror attacks.
The statement references the violent attacks on Israel as an understandable “desperate act of self-defense.”
“As the world is faced with deep questions about self-determination, as well all desire and pray for a world of peace, we must stand unwaveringly on the side of the oppressed,” the statement read. “When a people have been subject to decades of apartheid and unimaginable violence, their resistance must not be condemned, but understood as a desperate act of self-defense.”
The statement continued:
Black Lives Matter Grassroots stands in solidarity with our Palestinian family who are currently resisting 57 years of settler colonialism and apartheid. As Black people continue the fight to end militarism and mass incarcerations in our own communities, let us understand the resistance in Palestine as an attempt to tear down the gates of the world’s biggest open air prison.
The organization also recognized what it claims are “clear parallels between Black and Palestinian people.”
The statement also seemed to call on the United States to stop funding Israel.
“For lasting peace to come, the entire apartheid system must be dismantled,” BLM Grassroots said. “The war on the Palestinian people must cease. We call on the United States government to immediately stop funding war and redirect the $4 billion in annual spending to repair the damage caused by U.S.-backed wars, military air strikes, coups, and destabilizing interventions against oppressed people around the world.”
The Chicago chapter of Black Lives Matter also showed support for the Palestinian cause, posting a photo that reads, “I stand with Palestine.” The photo also featured a paraglider with the Palestinian flag, which is notable because Hamas gunmen paraglided into a music festival in Israel and attacked the attendees.
Black Lives Matter activists have a lengthy history of supporting Palestinian causes during times when Hamas has waged violent attacks on Israel.
