I can’t let Jerusalem Day pass without a few observations. One is my constant sense of awe at the hand of G-d during the 67 war and reunification of Jerusalem.
This is just a wonderful movie and only 8:29 long and it’s loaded with real footage and excellent commentary.
The ending of the movie is one of the things that always brings me to tears, Motta Gur announcing Har HaBeit B’Yadanu. The Temple Mount is in our hands.
The next observation is the joy of the people in Jerusalem celebrating it, carrying flags, dancing and singing. Only 15 seconds long.
Next observation, which is not exactly positive, is how some media outlets such as WION, Indian and of course everyone’s favorite Qatari propaganda outlet Al-Jeezera label the people celebrating with flags and dancing as far right extremists…However much you hate the media? It’s not enough.
To further prove my point, as Jews walked through Jerusalem to the beginning of the parade point, some Arabs fortunate enough to live in Israel where they enjoy a higher standard of living than in Gaza or the Falestinian Authority controlled areas decided to show their appreciation by throwing things at the Jews. You’ll note please, Newsweek captions this as “Jewish Nationalists and Palestinians throw chairs at each other”. The Jews walking through Jerusalem are “nationalists” and the falestinians are what? Innocent inciters of violence? Newsweek chose not to label them. An actual NEWS source might think to themselves, hmmm so the Jews were walking through Jerusalem carrying chairs with them on their way to a parade? But such is the state of the “news media” today. Which is why I’m happy as a little clam that Israel is suing the New York Slimes who chose to report a story with zero fact checking. I know, for the Slimes, it’s business as usual, but they really deserve the lawsuit. About 30 seconds
But since the first video contains the lines I so love to hear, I’ll leave you with a different video, it’s done by The Temple Institute, I’ve actually been in their office in Jerusalem. If you want to know more about the six day war, they have a six day war reflections page. If you check out their study tools tab, you’ll see they have many topics to choose from.
So today, I was barely snarky at all, instead just appreciating the joy and miracle of a reunified Jerusalem. Shimshon and I are going to suspend our ongoing Chuck Norris movie marathon to instead watch a movie about the six day war with real footage and individual stories of miracles that happened during the war. And we will feel gratitude and awe. Well, I will anyway.
The basic story of Purim can be found here, or I have other columns about Purim here.
The jist of the story is an evil man named Hamen, hated the Jews and due to his own arrogance was humiliated by Mordechai who refused to bow in front of him. So he decided to get his boss, King Ahasuerus to kill all the Jews in Persia. Modern day Iran, more or less. Everything was going swimmingly, a date to wipe everyone out was all set, invitations were sent out to all the people to wipe out all the Jews, men, women and children, the catering was arranged, Tucker, Megyn and Candace all contacted Hamen asking if they could help with making party favors. And then it just all came crashing down. Mordachi, the Jew who wouldn’t bow down to Hamen, was uncle to Esther. He’d raised her from a little girl after she lost her parents. And Esther, was the Queen. Of Persia. Wife of Ahasuerus. Mordachi suggested strongly to Esther she approach her husband and explain the problem. He was about to be a widower again, in a very short time. Killing your previous wife Vashti, causes that.
This presented problems for Esther as to approach the King, her husband without an invitation could lead to her demise, and him being a widower again in a very short time. Esther had the Jews of Shushan, where they lived fast, pray and do repentance for three days, then she would approach the king and her attitude was if I die, I die.
She approached the king and he held out his golden scepter. The next two days Esther made a wine feast for Hamen and the king as that had been her request when she approached the king. After the second feast on the second day she begged the king to save the life of her and her people. The king was very miffed at Hamen, he went for a walk in the garden and came back in time to see Hamen flinging himself onto the couch of Queen Esther. That was it, that was all she wrote, Hamen was toast, no jam, jelly or honey. He was hung on the gallows he had built to hang Mordechi. And boy did I leave a lot out of that synopsis. If I’d told you more details this meme would make perfect sense. Oh and by the by? I know Tucker is claiming that Mossad agents were captured in Qatar, Qatar has come out and said, not true. Much like Tucker’s “detainment” in Israel? It never happened. Qatar is going to regret hiring him as their propaganda agent. Tucker may regret it as well, there is a 5 year prison sentence for peddling false information in Qatar. They may even go for someone less controversial, like Candace. /sarcasm font.
Hamen Tucker and Mordechi Bibi
End of the story?? NO!! This is where it gets really good! While Hamen was dead, all the residents of Persia were set to murder all the Jews throughout Persia.
From the first link above
On that day, Haman’s estate was given to Esther, and Mordechai was appointed prime minister in Haman’s stead.
But Esther was far from satisfied. Haman was dead, but his evil decree was still in effect. According to Persian law, once a king issues a decree it can not be rescinded. But the king gave Mordechai and Esther permission, and they promptly wrote up a decree that countermanded Haman’s edict. The decree granted the Jews permission to defend themselves against their enemies. And by this time, considering that all knew that the queen and prime minister were both Jewish, no one would prevent the Jews from doing just that!
And the Jews in Shushan were oh so happy. Celebrations abounded!
On the 13th of Adar that year, the Jews throughout the Persian Empire mobilized and killed the enemies who had wanted to kill them. In Shushan, among the dead were Haman’s 10 sons.
Esther asked the king’s permission for the Jews in Shushan to have one more day to destroy their enemy—and the king acceded to her wish. On that day, the 14th of Adar, the Jews worldwide celebrated, and the Jews of Shushan killed more of their enemies, and also hung Haman’s sons. The Jews of Shushan then rested and celebrated on the 15th of Adar.
Esther gave concealed carry permits to all the Jews of Persia. I’d have said then she passed out fully automatic rifles and shotguns, but well, that wouldn’t be true. Sigh.
I wrote about the revolution that has begun in Iran, A Tale of Two Watermelons, but honestly by this time you probably know way more than that.
One of the big issues has been the Iranian people are basically defenseless. They have no weapons. They’ve done as President Trump said, they have gone out into the streets, only to be mowed down. Vice President Marie Antoinette Vance in a “Let them eat cake” moment said, Vance: If the Iranian people want to overthrow the regime, that’s up to them. Really? Interesting. And that’s part of what makes Suzanne Gratia Hupp’s testimony as important today as it was the day she spoke it.
The present day Persians, unlike the Jews of Persia in the Purim story, and unlike Americans have no Second Amendment, no means of defending themselves, no means of fighting back or overturning a brutal almost 50 year old Islamic regime. A fact that apparently escapes Vice President Marie Antoinette Vance. No matter how many tens of thousands of them have been slaughtered, that doesn’t seem to be doing the trick to bring about regime change, no matter how desperately they want it, and they do.
President Trump and Prime Minister Netanyahu have kept their promise to the captive Iranian people. More than 30,000 of them, though firm numbers are hard to get. The Islamic regime hasn’t given bodies back to families, has made them pay to get the bodies back, there are people in prison that are probably dead, but don’t know for sure. As I’ve mentioned, patients were hauled out of hospitals and murdered. So firm numbers? I’m not sure. But the American Operation Epic Fury and the Israeli Operation Roaring Lion are in full swing. And it is a thing of beauty. So much, so much.
Number one, we owe the Persians one. King Ahasuerus predecessor was King Cyrus, Cyrus the Great.
Darius’ successor is known in world history as Cyrus the Great, and Jewish history likewise considers him to be an extraordinary person, albeit for different reasons. Cyrus permitted the Jews to go to Jerusalem and rebuild the Bais Hamikdash; indeed, his famous proclamation to that effect is the very last verse of the Bible: “Thus said Cyrus, king of Persia: ‘Hashem, G‑d of Heaven, has given to me all the kingdoms of the earth, and he has commanded me to build Him a Temple in Jerusalem, which is in Judah. Whoever there is among you of His entire people — may G‑d be with him, and let him go up’” (II Chronicles 36:23).
Since the Mamdani predecessors, Shia 12ers working with communists took over in 1979, thanks Jimmy Peanuts, the world has suffered from this evil Islamic regime. They have many evil branches, hamass, hezbollah, houteim, and they have perpetrated many terrorist attacks around the world, including on American troops and civilians. A fact many on the woke reich (right) and woke left (WR-WL) prefer to forget, don’t know, or worse, choose to ignore and hope their listeners don’t know any better relying upon the work of the teacher’s union.
There are many modern day miracles in play this Purim, so while this may not be in any chronological order, I find each of them to be amazing all in their own right.
Unlike what many on the WR-WL say, this is more of a rescue operation than it is an attack. Many blather about the war powers act, something that apparently wasn’t an issue when barry sotero was in office. I would refer them, believe it or not, to Sen. John Fetterman. In another clip he mentions “Because I’ve actually read the war powers act”. Fetterman, a continual amazement. Sometimes I think he, like Queen Esther, for such a time as this.
Now, about that fantastic Israeli intelligence he mentions in another clip, here is something juicy I ran across. It’s from the Wall Street Journal,
The Wall Street Journal reconstructed Operation Genesis.
For over 20 years, Unit 8200 tracked Khamenei’s daily routine, hacked Tehran traffic cameras, and used AI to sift intercepted calls.
They knew he went underground at night when he expected attacks.
So they struck at 9:40 a.m. on a Saturday morning while he was above ground with his family.
Blue Sparrow missiles launched from F-15s exited the atmosphere before crashing down, bypassing air defenses entirely.
Khamenei and six top officials were dead before Iran even knew the war had started.
By nightfall, thousands of Iranians were celebrating in the streets of Isfahan.
Now, we’re getting reports that Israel has done it again, striking another meeting of the Iranian Supreme Council, which had gathered to appoint another Supreme Leader.
….
“I’m told by a senior Israeli official that the Israelis just struck the Supreme Council gathering, where the Iranians were meeting to choose a new Supreme Leader. This is a significant development, and again speaks to the Israeli intelligence about this war. They just targeted the meeting in Tehran where what’s left of the leadership was gathering to choose a new Supreme Leader,” Yingst said.
Ok we choose Ayatollah Fred… Boom!!! And Fred’s dead ok Charlie, congrats you’re the new supre…. BOOM… Oh sorry Charlie…. Ok the absolute supreme leader is Chris! Congrats on leading the charge to kill all those pesky protesters! You’re the new BOOM…. Lather rinse repeat
Ok, they maybe probably didn’t really say that, but I kind of think it may have happened a bit like that.
I did see an absolutely marvelous clip of some of the Basij, the IRGC militia? Volunteers? Thugs? Psychopaths? Anyway, they were riding their motorcycles around shooting the unarmed Iranians who were out in the streets celebrating being bombed and Ayatollah Aly Hamen-i, Hamen, Hamen-i, being killed. And out of nowhere a drone came and then there was a white flash and then the Basij killers were gone. I love a movie with a happy ending.
Which brings us to our next film clip. There are many elements in here, and the ones I want are back to back and it’s set to start at the relevant part.
First, the pictures from all over the world of Iranians dancing with joy that the Ayatollah is toast.
Second, the CBS reporter that is told not to film with the crowd as they are singing President Trump and Prime Minister Netayahu’s name and praises. He films anyway defying his boss. Isn’t CBS being sued for deceptive editing? Yes, I believe they are. Why they have viewers left, I’m not really sure.
Third, Vinny is saying Islam has been collapsing in Iran, 70% of Iranians have left Islam. 2/3rds of the mosques in Iran have closed due to low attendance. The whole relevant part is maybe only a couple of minutes long.
I think it makes a good case that Iran is basically an “occupied country”. Occupied by a terrorist regime that the people do not want. I thought leftists were against “occupation”. Oh? That’s only for Jews? I see. So the Iranian regime which has been yelling Death to America, the great Satan and Death to Israel, the little Satan and kills it’s own people and is trying to develop nuclear weapons and has killed and will kill more Americans is just “having a difference of opinion” with the west? I heard someone point out recently everyone is concerned, and rightly so, about Iran and a nuclear missile. But he asked how many sleeper cells in America since the Biden-Harris crime regime? Once Iran has developed nuclear material, how hard is it for them to sneak it into their American sleeper cell for a dirty bomb? How hard is it for them to fill a ship with it and sail the ship into NY harbor under a different country’s flag and set it off? All they need is to develop the nuclear material. Trump’s Top Middle East Negotiator Dropped a Bombshell About Iran and Its Nuke Program Last Night. And, guess what?
Let me say this, because I forgot this small little detail.
In that first meeting, both the Iranian negotiators said to us directly, with no shame, that they controlled 460 kilograms of 60% and they’re aware that that could make 11 nuclear bombs, and that was the beginning of their negotiating stance. So that’s – they were proud of it.
They were proud that they had evaded all sorts of oversight protocols to get to a place where they could deliver 11 nuclear bombs.
Something for that “imminent threat” crowd to chew on.
Next topic, these celebrations are world wide, the first part of this clip shows video from around the world and people are doing the “Trump Dance”. So many people, so grateful, so much hope. And I love it that many of the videos I’ve seen the Iranian Lion & Sun flag, the American Flag and the Israeli flag are all being waved with abandon, the people are all happy and celebrating. It’s certainly not like a leftist gathering where police are attacked, buildings are set on fire and riots break out. No, these are full of joy, celebration and hope for a free Iran, and they want to share their joy. Don’t forget, Iranians did come out in support for the Israelis after October 7th.
And Bibi gets his share of loving too, listen to the crowds in Iran chanting Bibi Joon Bibi Joon which means like Dear Bibi or loved Bibi. Yeah who that that on their Bingo card? Open love for Bibi Netanyahu being chanted in the streets of Tehran.
Also in the clip prior is the venomous, miserable, low life traitor Hanoi Jane Fonda, who is still a miserable, venomous, low life traitor. But Jane you miserable traitor, in addition to being a traitor to your country, you are also a traitor to women? What about women’s right? You insane broads on the left are supposed to be the ones defending women’s rights? What about the rights of the women of Iran to be able to walk in the streets without having to be accompanied by a man? To choose who or if they marry? To choose what to wear? Don’t forget Jane, “Female prisoners who are virgins must be raped before execution, to prevent them from entering heaven.” ~~Ayatollahs Khomeini and now Hamen-i. That’s all peachy with you? I never again want to hear some leftist loser woman wearing one of those stupid pink cat ear hats say they are the party that protects and stand up for women. They didn’t stand up for the victims of October 7th, they haven’t said one word about the >30-40,000 dead, missing and maimed Iranians. They don’t give a fig about women or their rights. Iranian women are flinging their hijabs off with joy even as stupid American women adopt them in some sort of perverted cos-play. It does give me great joy to tell you some of the pilots bombing the snot out of the evil Islamic regime, are women. And the Islamists really really hate that.
Who chooses submission, who chooses freedom?
Part of the reason for the instability in the Middle East, is due to the instability of the leadership of Iran. North Korea is unstable, and they have a nuclear weapon. But North Korea wants to survive. Iran is lead by Islamic Shia 12ers who believe the 12th Imam comes when the world has been converted to chaos and blood. Self preservation, in general, isn’t top of their list. They go to paradise and get 72 virgins. In the last day or so Iran has shown the world why the rest of the Muslim countries were scared of Iran. Did this have an influence on why many didn’t want to sign the Abraham accords? I dunno, and we will never know cause that moment has passed. But what’s happening now is Iran is firing missiles into Israel, of course, but also the muslim countries of Qatar, Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Bahrain, Oman and fired at Greece. The Muslim countries not affected so far are France and Britain. The UAE has shot down a bunch of missiles and drones, Israel of course has been shooting down missiles and drones, but some got through on Saudi Arabia and they are not amused. In fact, Saudi Arabia is getting ready to join the fight. So who had on their Bingo card for 2026 that Saudi Arabia and Israel would be fighting on the same side in a war? You know what I haven’t heard? Remember when Israel targeted a hamass leader that was hiding out in Qatar and shot a missile into where he was supposed to be? Oh the outcry. Well, Iran is shooting at everyone. I’ve yet to hear the outcry.
I truly do not think this war will go on that long. President Trump has said maybe 4 weeks. I don’t know. But I do know no one is shipping food, electricity and water into the Ayatollahs and their evil minions. The war in Gaza could have been over long ago had it been fought like this. And it would have been far kinder. And unlike the unfinished war in Gaza, this one has to be finished.
Another reason I don’t think this will be another “forever war”? You know who in the area does have weapons, a hate on for the Iranian regime and are battle hardened warriors? A people I very much admire, especially the women, the Kurds!! I’ve written about them before, Peshmerga. And, guess what??
They have begun a ground incursion across the Iraqi border.
The Kurds have some of the bravest, well trained and determined female fighters in the Middle East.
The Kurdish population in Iran is estimated to be up to 15 million people.
They have been in talks with the Americans and they hate the current Iranian regime.
They say that their active participation against the radical Islamists that controlled Iran will inspire the majority of Iranians to rise up more and help pull down the regime.
From another source,
Iranian opposition sources report that the Israeli Air Force is attacking headquarters of the Iranian Revolutionary Guards in the city of Mariwan in the Iranian Kurdistan region in western Iran.
Reports of IDF strikes on Basij forces’ centers in the important Kurdish city of Saqqez in western Iran.
When Saul fought the nation of Amalek he was commanded by the prophet Samuel to wipe them out completely, as is instructed in the Torah. But Saul left their king alive. For this action, Saul lost his kingship. Moreover, his misjudgment had repercussions long into the future. In the one night that Saul allowed King Agag to live, Agag sired a child. Generations later, Haman was born—a descendant of that very child.
The Megillah tells us that while Esther was held in the palace harem, Mordechai spent his days pacing in front of it. According to our sages, he was trying to understand for what purpose a completely righteous woman like Esther—a woman who had actually hidden from the king’s search for a new queen, a woman who, according to some opinions, was actually his own wife—would be chosen to be married against her will to a drunken despot. He knew it could not be chance. Some greater destiny must await her.
When Mordechai spoke to Esther, he finally had his answer: Esther was placed there to right this ancient wrong. Yes, the Jews would not, could not, ever be annihilated. But King Saul was still accountable in the heavenly court for his error. How could he ever undo what had been done?
He would have to wait 500 years. He would have to wait until his descendant would meet a descendent of Agag’s, and, this time, do the right thing.
Better to do the right thing the first time. Who but G-d? אין עוד מלבדו
As I’m watching Iran go up in flames as protesters risk their lives and that of their family to escape the hell of Islamic rule, you wonder how did a country that looked like this in the 1970s.
Become a country that looks like this
Iranians are Persian, not Arabic. Their original religion was not Islam. Prior to the 1979 Islamic Revolution, Zoroastrianism was the ancient religion of Iran and was also the dominant pre-Islamic religious tradition of the Iranian peoples. Pre-1979 Iran, the Iranian people and the Israeli people had a warm relationship. In fact the two countries had joint trade and projects. Next to Israel, the largest number of Jews were living safely in Iran.
Iran today is suffering a water shortage, apparently when your government is more concerned about reconstructing it’s nuclear program rather than dealing with infrastructure little trifles like water don’t count for much. Satellite Imagery Shows Tehran’s Accelerating Water Crisis
Iran has a terrible record for treatment of women, in 2022 a Kurdish Iranian woman named Mahsa Amini was grabbed beaten and tortured to death by the Iranian morality police. Her death resulted in protests with 500 killed and 22,000 detained. More recently Iranian teen Armita Geravand was hospitalized due to the morality police, and an activist named Narges Mohammadi was held in Evian prison. But hey! The UN gave the late Amini an award. Oh, no, they didn’t actually do anything, they just gave the murdered woman an award. The islamic regime in Iran has shot and murdered 22 year old Saghar Etemadi. Some things don’t change.
So how did Iran go from the first video of lovely young women in swimsuits, in dresses out shopping and dancing to being brutally murdered for not wearing their headscarf correctly?
There are apparently some Western, possibly misconceptions. This is a clip of Patrick Bet-David, family from Iran, and he’s explaining to comedian Rob Schneider about life under the Shah for the people of Iran and the rest of the middle east. The clip is only a day or so old and is set to start at the relevant part.
The jist of it is what Savak really was, basically the Iranian CIA, or MI6. Yes, Savak did use to torture, but as the Shah said in his 60 minutes interview that yes, Savak did used to torture, and no, they do not operate that way any longer. But part of the Shah’s downfall was listening to Jimmy Peanuts who told him to release 3000 political prisoners. Those prisoners were ISIS, Al-Queda, Hezbollah and most assuredly it was a horrible thing turning those people lose on the innocent citizens. Apparently the Demoncratic party love of terrorists and criminals goes back many years. PBD points out the region was much more stable, there were not the wars in the middle east all the time and 9/11 would never have happened. It’s interesting listening to Rob Schneider explain to Iranian PBD how things should be. Really listen at the 20:59 if you listen.
Interesting note, part of the people the Savak was trying to suppress were the communist agitators. You know, the communists who destabilize governments everywhere they are? Like Islamists, wherever they are, the choke out and kill everything else. So, the Iranian government, not being insane didn’t want their country destabilized and rode herd on them. The west having it’s share of communist supporters, didn’t frame it quite this way though. Understandable really, who wants to end up like Minnesota?
Things were better under the Shah? It certainly sounds that way from people that are from Iran.
So why would the people vote, for a change from the Shah? In Iran back then it was a constitutional monarchy, with the oldest constitution in the area I believe, so people did vote for the change from the Shah.
Well, I’m so glad you asked.
The revolution was driven by an alliance formed between Islamists and the radical left in Iran. They shared anti-imperialist sentiment against the Shah’s U.S.-backed regime. This evil coalition was made up of secular liberals, nationalists, communists, and Islamist-Marxists, who were united by their opposition to the Shah. Leftist Iranians, influenced by revolutionary communist theories, allied with the Islamic clerical establishment, which possessed an extensive network in mosques and influence over the populace, to gin-up the uprising. So the communist part told everyone they were being oppressed and if they were elected they would have free ________ you choose, the Islamists appealed to the religious aspects, not sure how up front they were with what Sharia really would mean. But they made a lot of promises, and the people believed them, and they have paid very dearly for that.
The Ayatoilet, as Mahyar Tousi calls them.
And, if you’d like a quick primer on other countries that have fallen to Islam, this is the original cultural clothing of women in those countries. Before and after.
And following the collapse of the Shah’s rule, Khomeini, return from exile and established a multi-party provisional government. The Islamic Republic then violently suppressed internal dissent and its own partners in the insurrection, including secular liberals, communists, and members of reformist Islamic groups. The communists were dissolved, and their activists were arrested, jailed, and killed. Many political opponents, including communists, socialists, and moderate Islamists, were targeted in massacres following the revolution. So much for further use of the useful idiots.
Color me shocked. As in every other place Islam moves in, it drives everything else out, or they convert.
Right now the good people of Iran are fighting and dying to try to get rid of the evil Islamic regime. The regime has cut all internet, the only way the people are getting the videos of the attacks out is Elon Musk’s Starlink. G-d bless Elon, again. How is the lamestream media covering it, we are in day 17? Well, BBC isn’t really. BBC’s Shameful Coverage
There is growing outrage over the BBC’s coverage of protests in Iran after a blundering report was aired on its flagship News At Ten programme.
Viewers hit out at embarrassing editing errors and the tone of the report, which aired a lengthy statement from the country’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
The BBC was already under scrutiny over allegations it was not giving the nationwide protests enough coverage, after thousands of Iranians took to the streets for the 13th day in a row on Friday.
The Western liberal media is ignoring the Iranian uprising because explaining it would force an admission it is desperate to avoid: the Iranian people are rebelling against Islam itself, and that fact shatters the moral framework through which these institutions understand the world.
Ideally, to cover an uprising is not just to show crowds and slogans. It requires answering a basic question: why are people risking death? In Iran, the answer is simple and unavoidable. The people are rising up because the Islamic Republic of Iran has spent decades suffocating every aspect of life—speech, work, family, art, women, and economic survival—under a clerical system that treats liberty as a crime. There is no way to tell that story without confronting the nature of the regime.
Western media refuses to do so because it has fundamentally misunderstood Islam. Or worse, it has chosen not to understand it.
Islam, in Western progressive discourse, has been racialized. It is treated not as a belief system or a political ideology, but as a stand-in for race or ethnicity. Criticizing Islam is framed as an attack on “brown people,” Arabs, or “the Middle East,” as if Islam were a skin color rather than a doctrine.
Meanwhile GB news is platforming a terrorist and Dawn Neesom is not telling viewers who the person is. Much like Tucker Qatarlson platforming the nun with the mustache that is George Stephaglaopogas’s sister.
Here Mahyar talks about GB News asking him for help, and the MEK terrorist Dawn Neesom ended up interviewing and his thoughts about the dishonesty. It’s set to start at the relevant part. The whole thing is good and is an update as well. Mahyar is a good resource for news in general, but especially Iran. His Dad is still trapped there.
Today there was a terrorist attack in L.A. It was perpetrated by MEK, Mojahedin-e-Khalq. MEK is a radical communist organization, and they are using lobbyists in US to convince Republicans that MEK is an alternative to the Islamic regime in Iran. It is not. MEK, as you will recall is the group that Dawn Neesom platformed on GB News without telling viewers that the person was from a terrorist group, which is why Mahyar Tousi called them out. MEK was responsible for the death of U.S. military officers and contractors in Iran between 1973 and 1976. They are a Marxist and Islamist cult that is rejected inside Iran. Again, they murdered American soldiers, celebrated the 9/11 Islamic terrorist attacks on New York City, and are longtime allies of the PLO Islamic terrorist organization, among having involvement in other atrocities. Until a decade ago, MEK was designated as a terrorist group in the US and Canada. Their terror designation was removed by Hillary Clinton under Barak Hussein Obama.
It’s possible today they added to their death tally. They drove a U-haul, a big one, into a peaceful rally of Iranians and their supporters who were rallying for Reza Pahlavi, son of the last Shah to return to Iran. The terrorist just drove through the rally and mowed them down. I’m not crazy about the narrator of the video, but this one has the two clips together in one. The one of him driving through and the one of the people trying to get him out of the cab and the police protecting him. Sadly.
President Trump has said he will intervene if Iran “starts shooting at the protesters.” Well, there are estimates of 2,000-6,000 dead. The regime is showing up at hospitals and dragging out everyone with a gunshot wound. Some they are just killing there and the regime have taken control of all the hospitals I believe in Tehran. So, I’m not really sure what President Trump considers “starts shooting”. These brave people have been out rallying every night now, risking everything for freedom. And had President Trump let Israel finish the job last year, there would be 6,000 Iranians still alive. Like Michelle Bachman said in a clip in an article or two ago, America never lets Israel win. This time it cost the Iranians as well, very dearly.
A brave Iranian raises the Lion and Sun Iranian flag, not the Islamic republic.
A watermelon, Hamass/terrorist green on the outside, Communist red on the inside. Truly and unholy alliance. Iran is one country destroyed by the green-red alliance, who is the other watermelon? Why, it’s New York City!
Mamdani campaigned as a Shia 12er Islamic Muslim, same as Iran. He’s a proud Communist. He told you what he was. And like all Muslims who practice Taqiyya, he lied about some things.
While the Qur’an is against believers deceiving other believers—for “surely God guides not him who is prodigal and a liar”—deception directed at non-Muslims, generally known in Arabic as taqiyya, also has Qur’anic support and falls within the legal category of things that are permissible for Muslims.
So, what has NYC’s newly elected little Jihadi done so far to advance his watermelon status? He is the product of a Hollyweird film maker mother, and a college professor father. Mamdani’s father sits on council of anti-Israel group tied to terror, legitimizes role of suicide bombers. Probably explains Zoran’s chants of “Globalize the Intifada”. Eh what? So all this was known before the elections. And how has he started out his reign?
Well, on day one he canceled all the previous Mayor Eric Adams Executive orders. Including
In one of his first acts in office after being inaugurated on Thursday, New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani revoked the city’s adoption of the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA) Working Definition of Antisemitism.
The decision overturned an executive order signed in June by then-Mayor Eric Adams, which had aligned New York City with the global standard used to identify and confront contemporary antisemitism.
City Hall confirmed that Mamdani rescinded all executive orders issued by Adams after September 26, 2024. The rollback took effect immediately.
Among the nullified orders was a separate directive signed by Adams barring city officials from engaging in actions that discriminate against Israel or Israeli entities.
And the fruit of his attitude is already on the vine. From January 8th of this year.
New York City’s incoming mayor has made a choice that’s got people talking—and not in a good way. Zohran Mamdani’s picked Mysonne Linen, a rapper who did seven years in prison for armed robbery, to advise him on criminal justice. The appointment is raising eyebrows across the city.
The decision to elevate a figure convicted of violently targeting taxi drivers stands in stark contrast to Mamdani’s campaign rhetoric, which frequently championed cabbies as the city’s ‘unsung heroes’ and central to his working-class coalition.
Socialist New York Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani announced on Tuesday that he is appointing controversial lawyer Ramzi Kassem, who defended al Qaeda terrorist Ahmed al-Darbi in court, as the city’s top attorney.
Mamdani, who will take office on Jan. 1, announced he was appointing Kassem as New York City’s chief counsel, the top legal role in the city. He also shared that he is appointing Steven Banks a self-proclaimed “social justice attorney” as corporation counsel and Helen Arteaga as deputy mayor for health and human services.
If Cea Weaver did not exist, one would be hard-pressed to invent her. Weaver seems to have been designed in a laboratory to work in the Ideological Compliance Department of the East German Kommunale Wohnungsverwaltung, but, as the result of an unfortunate accident with a time machine, ended up overseeing housing policy in the most important city in the United States. She believes that “rent control is a perfect solution to everything” — not least because it is an “effective way to shrink the value of real estate.” She considers that “private property is a weapon of white supremacy,” she believes that “homeownership is racist,” and she holds that the highest aim of government ought to be to “impoverish the *white* middle class.” And they say that ambition is dead in America!
What does Weaver mean we have to pay for something that’s a right?
“If your income is zero,” Weaver continued, “you pay zero. If your income is $500,000 a year, you’re paying 30 percent of that. And the government is…the sort of owner or not even the owner. The government doesn’t have to be the owner, but the government is what’s making sure all of that sort of works and cash flows.”
She also admitted something without knowing she admitted it: the “collective” won’t own anything. The government will. That’s what they mean by the “warmth of collectivism”: AWFLs like Weaver will decide where and how you live, and take all of your money for it.
Mamdani’s inaugural address, which sounded like a ChatGPT rewrite of the Communist Manifesto, was even more ghastly. “I was elected as a Democratic Socialist and I will govern as a Democratic Socialist,” he declared, promising to start an “era of big government” and to govern “expansively and audaciously.”
By far the most controversial line was his pledge to “replace the frigidity of rugged individualism with the warmth of collectivism.” Perhaps nothing else he has said so completely captures just how dangerous, ignorant, and deeply un-American Mamdani and his political ideology are. Rugged individualism is the beating heart of the American spirit. It fueled the first settlers to forge a new nation from wilderness, spurred on the Founding Fathers to craft a cradle of liberty from tyranny, and has sustained every generation of American patriots since.
The record of collectivism, meanwhile, is one of scarcity, pain, and despair. According to the best estimates, “collectivism” (also known as communism) killed 100 million people in the 20th century alone. That Mayor Mamdani doesn’t know this – or perhaps just doesn’t care – should be terrifying.
I would say many New Yorkers are in for a big shock. Why I don’t know. Many people tried to warn them, but the media and the Demoncrats/Communists just spun and lied and lacking sense, they voted him in. So looking at how the Shia 12er + Communism has turned out for Iran, our first watermelon I can’t help but think about all those proud blue hairs, transgender, and queer and proud marches for Zoran. Lots and lots of tall buildings in NYC. Voting….consequences….
I ran across this music video, yeah, that’s what happened, I just randomly ran across this…anyway, one of the guitarists was born in Iran and escaped to Israel, wrote a song about his dream to listen to Bob Dylan on the radio. I will warn you, this is pretty graphic. It’s from an old band called The Good Life.
The two-tiered nature of the politically motivated Biden-Harris DOJ can be seen in the stark difference between how Tina Peters has been treated in contrast to how the serious breach of election security by Colorado Secretary of State Jena Griswold’s office has been addressed.
Griswold’s office left voting system passwords publicly accessible on the state’s website for several months.
Despite discovering the exposure on October 24, Griswold’s team only began to change the leaked passwords after the Colorado GOP brought the issue to light.
Gun owner groups “supporting” Harris are as astroturf as her rallies, utter crap.
As have the MSM talk shows. Whoopi (Caren Johnson) is now claiming Trump is going to deport people and start a matchmaking company. Busy guy that DJT. Great explanation by Batya Sargon-Unger included in this video.
The Biden-Harris-Obama criminal regime have imported millions of illegal invaders into our country, they have no idea who they are. Crime in Venezuela is down by I think 72%. We all know why.
Their antisemitic attitudes have infected feeble minded people who brag they are part of a recognized terrorist organization. Less than 8 minutes long it’s a snapshot, not all of it mind you, just a snapshot of the moral decay of our country.
And I don’t know what it is with demoncrat/communists, but they really really hate animals. From importing the Haitians who are eating the ducks, geese and people’s pets to now murdering an innocent squirrel and racoon, Peanut and Fred. The basics are a man and his wife had an orphaned squirrel and racoon that had lost their mothers. Both mothers were run over by cars and the man witnessed it. He took the animals in, he and his wife have a 350 acre animal sanctuary, including horses. But Peanut and Fred were house dwellers. Apparently the two animals even had an instagram account, and did cute stuff. He really was adorable.
In this short clip the man tells what he and his wife went through, 2:12 long. They have 300 rescue animals they care for. There were 4 departments involved in this, and judges signed off on it.
This took 5 hours, the man’s wife was questioned about her immigration status, they had a search warrant and went through their house like they were looking through Melania’s underwear drawer, Peanut and Fred were kidnapped and murdered. The involved parties are all very proud of their good work in keeping New Yorkers safe from cute squirrels and racoons by murdering aforementioned animals.
Monica, Seth and Karen going from L to R
Karen Pryzklek is the head of the squirrel murder squad, just beaming with pride.
Sean Mahar is the Acting New York Commissioner of Environmental Conservation. Pretty cushy job eh? Kill a few pets and rake in $220,000 a year….
This murder is only the tip of the iceberg. The corrupt state of NY invaded a man’s home, essentially held him and his family prisoner for hours, stole his pets and murdered them. FOUR departments, 12 agents and a judge were complicit. No one said, “nope, nopity nope nope. Not doing this”. No, they all just said “Ve vere yust followink orders”. What happened to the right to be secure in our homes with our property? People voted for demoncrat/communists. Now I’m willing to grant there are disgusting republicans as well, small r. But this is all demoncrats all the way down, bet on it. And when you vote demoncrat you vote to give over to the government the power over your own life. And this was an outrageous abuse of power, all at the whim of some deranged lunatic in Texas.
It is an act that has people all over horrified.
Actor James Woods put it very well. The whole post can be read here
Which brings me to my point.
This event where armed officers took a pet squirrel from an individual in New York opens a Pandora’s box of the horrors of leftist tyranny. The facts of the incident are disturbing enough: an anonymous instigator over 1000 miles away reported a humble man who had rescued a wounded squirrel and made a pet of him for years. The informer’s motives in doing so can only be guessed, but the owner of the pet had made the horrific mistake in today’s America of supporting conservative thought. A cadre of armed officials got a search warrant, rummaged through the man’s property for five hours, illegally questioned his wife about her immigrant status, ultimately seizing the pet and killing it without giving the owner any recourse to save its life. Now let’s take a look at the universe in which this macabre horrid little leftist “comedy” took place. In a nation overrun by tens of millions of illegal aliens, crushed by rampant crime and gang warfare, enduring a $35 trillion deficit, soul-crushing inflation, a culture of infanticide and child mutilation, sexual dysphoria, and insanity, and waging illegal lawfare against candidates of another party, New York State spent a full day killing a squirrel, that had been a harmless pet cherished by its owner for literally years.
The event in and of itself was just an act of petty cruelty. As a window into a larger universe, however, it is a fissure in the mantle of our world, signaling a cataclysmic eruption that may well end this nation. The tsunami of rage coming from ordinary and loving individuals was quite frankly astonishing.
Has America in the hands of the lunatic left become a powder keg about to explode? Will the power-hungry Democrats and their media minions spew enough hatred that even the most gentile among us will finally say ENOUGH? Does 87,000 newly minted and armed IRS agents offer you comfort or fill you with terror?
It’s about power, with demoncrat/communists, it’s party power over people, first last and always.
PINE CITY, NY — Following the public outcry about the state’s Department of Environmental Conservation raiding a local man’s home and euthanizing his pet squirrel who had hundreds of thousands of social media followers, New York authorities announced Peanut the squirrel had died of COVID-19.
Officials revealed Peanut’s cause of death in an effort to calm the backlash that resulted from what many people have labeled a blatant example of government overreach and misaligned priorities.snip clip. And yes, this one is satire. But it brings us to,
Remember, the parties put their best and brightest star at the top of their ticket, for the demoncrat/communists that would be Kamala Harris. Remember that during your down ballot choices. Even if you think someone is a “reasonable” demoncrat, I’d personally, YMMV, urge against it as it will yield things like millions of illegal invaders getting free healthcare, college and our medicare, and will stop any swamp draining that might get done. Remember, to run as a demoncrat/communist, they have to sign onto and support the demoncrat/communist party platform.
I am urging everyone to vote today, if you haven’t already. Even if you don’t think the process will work, or decency stands a chance, I want to know that I used every recourse available to me to stop the demise of my country. If nothing else, you may be able to stop an illegal invader from using your name to vote. So that’s like getting two votes right there. -1 for the communist and +1 for America.
Pray, we must pray. 2 Chronicles 7:14
13 If I shut up the heaven and there be no rain, and if I command locusts to devour the land, or if I send pestilence upon My people.
14 And My people, upon whom My name is called, humble themselves and pray and seek My presence and repent of their evil ways, I shall hear from heaven and forgive their sin and heal their land.
15 Now, My eyes will be open and My ears attentive to the prayer of this place.
16 And now, I have chosen and consecrated this House that My name be there forever, and My eyes and heart will be there at all times.
The ATF’s rule redefining “engaged in the business,” and who must have a Federal Firearms License, has been released, but not yet formally published in the Federal Register. The Zelman Partisans has been warning you about this since 2022.
The rule document is 466 pages. Most of that is hundreds of pages of “responses” to public comment that amount to “We disagree,” and “tough shit.” The part where they claim that requiring everyone to have an FFL is BRUEN-compliant, because the feds briefly banned the export of cannons and gunpowder in 1794 is a classic.
Well, except for responses to the 250,000 identical form letter comments in favor of the rule. Those responses tend towards, “You’re absolutely right, and it’s a shame those stupid constitutionalists can’t see that.”
The actual final rule begins on page 452, and it’s even worse than the original proposed rule.
“Selling” a firearm includes swaps and barter, not just money.
A single transaction can make you a dealer, as I warned.
No firearm actually even needs to be sold. Whether the ATF thinks you intend to sell a firearm counts.
Buying a single firearm can make you a dealer, if the omniscient ATF magically foresees that you intend to resell it later.
It includes a presumption of guilt. If they accuse you, it’s up to you to prove — somehow — that, “No, I bought that for my own use; I’m not planning to sell it years down the road.” Good luck with that; if you win, you’ll still be bankrupted by legal expenses.
VP “Kneepads” Harris weighed in on the new rule. Sorta. With her usual display of her monumental intellect:
As the head of the first-ever White House Office of Gun Violence Prevention, I am proud to announce that all gun dealers must conduct background checks no matter where or how they sell.
This will save lives and keep our communities safe.
Poor confused moron. Dealers have been required to conduct background checks “no matter where or how they sell” for decades.
This rule simply forces universal preemptively-prove-your-innocence background checks by making everyone a dealer.
And while this unconstitutional action was directed by the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act, it would do nothing to make safer communities. Those dealing in black market and stolen firearms will simply ignore this rule; just as they have ignored the FFA for 85 years, and the Gun Control Act of 1968 for 55 years.
The only people who will be affected by this proposed rule are the honest folk, who would have to decide between following the criminals’ highly successful 85 year old example, or being compliant chumps.
Are you interested in building your own firearms at home, but aren’t really sure how to get started? Not to worry; wethe New York State Policehas your back.
In an effort to crack down on so-called “ghost guns,” the NYSP inadvertently put together the perfect beginner’s how-to manual:
It has all the info you need to start. Descriptions of the technologies available (80% receivers, CNC milling, 3D printing), along with suppliers for the various tools, and complete parts lists and suppliers.
It tells you what hand tools you’ll be wanting. It even tells which types of plastic filament are best suited for firearms and the model of 3D printer you choose. It shows you basic steps you’ll be following.
NYSP didn’t mean it this way; it was supposed to be an internal tyranny tool. But someone leaked it, and we aim to keep it leaked.
Today is D-Day, and I suppose in a lead up to D-Day Shimshon and I have been watching some (what I consider) relevant movies and documentaries. We started watching Band of Brothers last week and a couple of nights ago finished it. One of the episodes is called “Why We Fight”. If you haven’t seen Band of Brothers I’ll give you the relevant point. The war is pretty much over, a few of the men from Easy Company are out in the woods on patrol, just kind of clearing the area when they run across the first concentration camp they’ve seen. They don’t know what it is. They send one of the men back to headquarters to try to find an officer. He finds Dick Winters (who was a very good officer, and I suspect and even better human) and the next scene is of a few officers; Ronald Speirs, Lewis Nixon and some of the rest of Easy Company including Joesph Liebgott. This mattered because Liebgott spoke German. In the first part of the episode many of the men had been questioning why had they given up the years of their lives to live in trenches and fight bad men. After they saw the concentration camps, and Liebgott was able to ask them questions and relay the answers to the officers they all more fully understood the situation. Dick Winters later tells Lewis Nixon the Russians found camps that were even worse. I suspect that may have been the first time some of the boys had seen that level of depravity and evil that can be inflicted on fellow human beings. The next lesson the men learned was “cultured, civilized” people are perfectly capable of standing by and allowing the atrocities, murder and starvation of innocent people. When the men of Easy talked to the town people they all denied knowing anything about it. Apparently one of the Generals had a brilliant idea. The townspeople were hauled out to the concentration camp to bury the bodies. The trait is easily visible today and when someone is being attacked there will be 4,352 TikTok, YouTube and FakeBook videos of the whole thing. Of someone like Daniel Penny stepping in to help others? Not so many.
The next atrocity to be fought was in Israel. You see the Not So Great Britain was there. Last night Shimshon and I watched the 2014 Documentary The Forsaken Promise. This is the whole documentary. Not sure how long it will be there.
The League of Nations trusted Britain to establish a national home for the Jews in their historic homeland, Israel.
The “Mandate for Palestine,” an historical League of Nations document, laid down the Jewish legal right to settle anywhere in western Palestine, a 10,000-square-miles3 area between the Jordan River and the Mediterranean Sea.
The legally binding document was conferred on April 24, 1920 at the San Remo Conference, and its terms outlined in the Treaty of Sèvres on August 10, 1920. The Mandate’s terms were finalized and unanimously approved on July 24, 1922, by the Council of the League of Nations, which was comprised at that time of 51 countries,4 and became operational on September 29, 1923.5
The “Mandate for Palestine” was not a naive vision briefly embraced by the international community in blissful unawareness of Arab opposition to the very notion of Jewish historical rights in Palestine. The Mandate weathered the test of time: On April 18, 1946, when the League of Nations was dissolved and its assets and duties transferred to the United Nations, the international community, in essence, reaffirmed the validity of this international accord and reconfirmed that the terms for a Jewish National Home were the will of the international community, a “sacred trust” – despite the fact that by then it was patently clear that the Arabs opposed a Jewish National Home, no matter what the form.
But despite being trusted by the entire league of nations to re-establish Israel (the nation, the tribes) in Israel (the land) Britain did not do that. In fact, Britain not only limited the number of Jews fleeing hitler and the nazis, they sent refugee ships back. But, so did America under the Demoncratic President Franklin D. Roosevelt. The British disarmed the Jews living in Israel as best as they could, while arming the arabs. In the riots of the 1920s and onward the Brits would stand back and allowed the Jews they had disarmed to be slaughtered. One horrific example at 1:45:00 into the documentary details the attack of 13 April 1948 when a medical convoy was trying to get to the Hadassah hospital in the besieged Jerusalem. The convoy was carrying patients, medical personnel and supplies, it was stopped and attacked by arabs. The Brits checked every convoy trying to get into Jerusalem to make sure that none of the Jews had any weapons, so they were defenseless against the arabs. The people were butchered. No, I didn’t mean killed. There was a British outpost nearby and the soldiers wanted to intervene and were told to stand down. It is reported some of the soldiers cried as they watched the slaughter and mutilation that followed. But they didn’t do anything. There are photographs of the aftermath in the video.
When the refugee ships came in to Israel, the Brits would put the Jews in one of several prison camps. One woman was in prison for five years, she and her husband had escaped, but she lost her whole family to the nazis in the concentration camps. She told of how the British soldiers would beat the prisoners, really they were quite despicable. But if you look at the pattern of the Brits…..America vs. Britain, Ireland vs Britain, Israel vs. Britain….Britain has not been on the side of good in any of those, and in the beginning of WWII Chamberlain made appeasement with hitler, so.
There was really nothing Israel could do about it at this point. They didn’t have control of their own country. The British did, the Jewish Israelis just had to suffer at the whims of the anti-Semitic British government. Oh, yes I did mean to say that. Watch the documentary. See, when your local politicians are not in control, when they have to bow to the will of others who may not have the very best welfare of your nation at heart when making decisions, it will not turn out well. This is something to keep in mind as the traitorous criminal Joe Biden tries to turn U.S. over to the benevolent dictatorship of the W.H.O. with the pandemic treaty. WHO Pandemic Treaty Is a Threat to Liberty. They are already talking about digital tracking. Seems the injection mandates and green passports were just such a dandy paradigm that a lot of the framework is already in place. We already have the FIB so we have the SS who are willing to throw political opposition in the Gulag to prevent them from speaking out. According to whistle blower Steven Friend, it’s not the rank and file of the FIB, instead is the leadership at the top.
Which brings me to leadership. Both examples are from WWII, both of these men came from humble backgrounds. I don’t know that either of them ever aspired to fame, but G-d put something in them that was needed on that day at that time, leadership.
The first man I mentioned earlier, Ronald Speirs, clip is 1:26 seconds long.
The next man I think I may have written about before, General Norman Dutch Cota, he puts paid to the notion you have to be in your prime and in great shape to make great things happen. 7:05 seconds long.
These men fought, because they knew what lay behind them were things they loved and cared about, family, friends and a way of life, their country and freedom to live their lives as they chose. They may have known some of what they were fighting against in front of them, but I don’t think in the beginning they even fully grasped the depth of evil they were up against. Man’s inhumanity to man.
I believe G-d puts the ability to fight back against evil into every creature. I believe we have the ability to fight on despite odds being against us. Every creature.
That cat absolutely is inspiring, and yes, it’s a cat not a small dog. Dogs don’t slap or bat like that. It’s a partisan guerilla cat! It gets in, gets the job done and gets out. A Chuck Norris cat.
Yes, we have a lot stacked against U.S. right now, and many of our fellow citizens have fallen victim to the Fifth Generation Warfare being conducted against U.S. by our own corrupt government. So we may not have as many allies as we should, and have more enemies than we deserve. But we don’t get to choose that bit. We do get to choose if we will pick up the torch that was handed U.S. by the men and women of WWII. It’s all about our mindsets. Maybe we will talk to people, maybe we will contact politicians, maybe we will go to political rallies and meetings, maybe we will donate money to people like Sen. Josh Hawley that actually do fight back. Goodness knows Soros donates to the likes of Kim Fox, Kim Gardner and their ilk. Maybe we just talk to our kids and grandkids and make sure they understand truth and reality and try to offset some of the damage being done in public schools. Maybe we become more informed about issues. Maybe we join our local grassroots Second Amendment group. But there will be some way for each of us to fight, because 79 years after D-Day, we have a far better idea of why we fight than they did that day they landed on the beaches of Normandy.
This is Jim Quinn’s D-Day tribute, he’s been doing it for years. It starts after 42 seconds.
Guns ARE the problem. Here4TheKids is a national movement with a state focus.
We demand that Colorado Governor Jared Solis sign an executive order to ban guns and buy them back.
An executive order pushes Democrats to finally TAKE REAL ACTION to put an end to this nightmare.
They plan to hold a sit-in — which somehow isn’t a “protest” — in Denver on June 5, 2023. If Solis is psychotic enough to do as they wish, their “nightmare” has just begun.
Their site doesn’t list any contact email; just a couple of form to “volunteer” or register for the sit-in. I guess they don’t want to answer any inconvenient questions. Like…
1. You may not like it, but doesn’t the Second Amendment exist?
2. Didn’t HELLER establish the the right to keep and bear arms preexisted the Second Amendment; that it only protects a right that exists anyway?
3. Didn’t MCDONALD establish that the Second Amendment is incorporated to the states, meaning Colorado and Solis have tto obey it, too?
4. Didn’t BRUEN establish that restrictions on the Second with no general, historical tradition are unconstitutional; and that it protects arms beyond those in existence at the time of ratification?
5. Does this mean that Here4TheKids is advocating for the overthrow — by fiat executive order, no less — of the Second Amendment and the Constitution that established the authority of the Supreme Court? Basically, the overthrow of our Constitutional representative republic. The overthrow of the government?
6. Doesn’t that get into treason territory?
So… another set of victim-disarming lefties who want to do away with the Constitution and courts. As I recently noted:
Baker had better hope that the Courts don’t get disavowed. The little remaining confidence in the courts is the only thing standing between himself, and his doorkickers, and six to twelve million heavily armed, non-compliant SOBs.
A final question for the lunatics at Here4TheKids: Do you really want to declare Hunting Season… on yourselves? Because once we can no longer rely on the Constitution, Courts, or basic sanity on the part of idiots like you, I’m afraid there are some who would be happy to take matters into their own hands, and rid themselves of infringers.
And their cheerleaders. Like you.
We’ll try to talk those excitable folks down, but if you actually manage to field confiscating door-kickers, it won’t be easy.
And we’ll have less incentive to try to control them.

Sometimes I hear something that makes me cock my head, with a huh expression. Probably like how Shimshon looks when I ask him why my package is chewed open at the gate. I’ll explain.
I’m sure many heard growing up “We love the person, but hate the behavior”. Or “Hate isn’t the opposite of love, apathy is”. I had a discussion with a girlfriend about that a couple of days ago. My opinion has changed. I can see in some situations now where apathy has been a lazy response on my part to a situation where a different emotion would have been more correct and in line. So what brought all this up? A podcast. Lenny Goldberg has a radio show, Jewish Truth Bombs, that I try to catch, he has a lot to say that makes sense to me. This one was no exception. The relevant part is only about 19 minutes or so, the last couple are commercials.
In case you don’t want to listen, I’ll give you the parts I’m pulling from it, but it’s all good. The topic was Purim, and some elements are in it that are often glossed over. Something Comrade X alluded to in the comments on my last column. Lenny points out that in Kohelet (Ecclesiastes) Chapter 3
1 Everything has an appointed season, and there is a time for every matter under the heaven.
2 A time to give birth and a time to die; a time to plant and a time to uproot that which is planted.
3 A time to kill and a time to heal; a time to break and a time to build.
4 A time to weep and a time to laugh; a time of wailing and a time of dancing.
5 A time to cast stones and a time to gather stones; a time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing.
6 A time to seek and a time to lose; a time to keep and a time to cast away.
7 A time to rend and a time to sew; a time to be silent and a time to speak.
8 A time to love and a time to hate; a time for war and a time for peace.
It says there is a time for hate. As much as a time for love, there is a time when hate is the appropriate response. He also points out that we are commanded to kill Amelek
The Torah lists two mitzvahs regarding Amalek:
To obliterate the nation of Amalek (timcheh et zecher Amalek).
To never forget the evil deeds Amalek did (zechor al tishkach)
Several centuries later, after Shaul was crowned king, the prophet Shmuel ordered him to fulfill G‑d’s commandment thus:3 “Smite Amalek, and utterly destroy all that is his. And have no pity on him; slay both man and woman, infant and suckling, ox and sheep, camel and donkey.”
Shaul gathered the Jewish people together and waged war against the Amalekites, slaying the entire nation and destroying their property. However, “he had pity on Agag, and the choicest of the sheep and cattle…,”4 and brought them back with him. Shmuel severely reproached Shaul for this: “Because you have rejected the word of G‑d, He has rejected you as king.”5 Though Shmuel then killed Agag, Agag was able to father a child in the interval between his capture by Shaul and his death. That child was the ancestor of Haman.
Lenny points out Judaism is about knowing when to have mercy, and when to flip the attribute of mercy. That at times, the correct answer is to hate, or be cruel. If you are merciful to the cruel, eventually you will be cruel to the merciful. He says accepting the yoke of heaven is knowing the time for each attribute, and being willing to carry out that task, and that no, sometimes it’s not easy. That if you can’t hate Haman, the way you love Mordachai, if you can’t hate at the proper time, then you are just a nice guy. You’re a nice person, but that has nothing to do with accepting the yoke of the mitzvot. Lenny points out that Shaul didn’t kill Agag, and when Agag saw Shmuel approach he thought the death sentence had been lifted, seeing as how Shmuel looked all sweet and innocent. Shmuel proceeded to cut him into pieces with his sword. Sometimes the appropriate answer is hate. When the first day of self-defense was completed, The King asked Queen Esther “What else would you like?” Does Ester say, oh let’s all get along. Lets go out for supper. Nope, she says let us have another day of vengeance to wipe out the people the wanted to kill them all. And she wanted the 10 sons of Haman’s hung. Publicly. I love Queen Esther.
In the podcast Lenny refers to the attacks in Huwara, in case you haven’t heard, here are some salient points, there’s more info in the article.
Some facts you need to know about the murder of Israeli Jews, Palestinian Arab terrorism and Huwara, because they seem to have escaped the attention of your Western media and the Biden Administration who just met their Palestinian Arab counterparts in Aqaba, Jordan, and arranged to give them more guns while they castigate Israel for responding to increasingly deadly Palestinian Arab violence morally supported by the current Democrat Administration.
1. Palestinian Arab terrorists in the northern Samaria terror hub of Huwara murdered two brothers, Hillel and Yagel Yaniv. The Yaniv brothers were executed in a rain of bullets after the terrorists had rammed their vehicle into them before gunning them down as they sat trapped in their car.
2. The attack was predictable. In the month leading up to their murder, Palestinian Arabs carried out an average of two-three rock and Molotov cocktail attacks a day against Israeli cars in Huwara and on the Gilad route leading through the village.
3. Following the murder of the Jewish brothers, Huwara residents celebrated by handing out sweets. They also held an official firework celebration,
4. Among the main celebrants was the owner of a car and spare parts lot named Ayed Maharab. Maharab is a paroled terrorist who spent five years in Israeli prison. His Facebook page is filled with celebrations of terrorist attacks and of himself holding an AK-47. Maharab published a post following the Yaniv brothers’ murders celebrating the attack.
5. Following the murder of their friends and neighbors, and after seeing the Arab celebration of their murder, a number of young Israelis from surrounding villages entered Huwara and committed acts of vigilante violence. Among other things, they burned Maharab’s car lot. The scenes you saw of burning vehicles was Maharab’s spare parts lot. No building and no individual Arab was attacked or hurt by the aggrieved and angry friends of Hillel and Yagel. The claims of a death were lies.
The appropriate response came from Bezalel Smotrich:
The United Nations today (Thursday) condemned the statement of Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich that he would like to see the Arab village of Huwara, where two Jewish brothers were murdered on Sunday, “wiped out.”
Stephane Dujarric, spokesman for UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres, called Smotrich’s comments “irresponsible” and “unacceptable.”
This was far from the first attack in Huwara.
An inappropriate response came from a moonbat leftist named appropriately enough, Yaya Fink.
Esti Yaniv, whose sons Hillel and Yagel were murdered by a terrorist in the Arab village of Huwara on Sunday, has expressed her horror at the launch of a campaign of support for the residents of Huwara, the initiative of left-winger and Labor Party activist Yaya Fink.
Fink is collecting donations for what he defines as the “Huwara pogrom victims.” The “pogrom” referred to occurred several hours after the murders of the Yaniv brothers, when dozens of Jews converged on Huwara and set fire to cars in scrapyards, also causing fire damage to several buildings. According to uncorroborated Palestinian-Arab accounts, one person lost his life in circumstances that are unclear.
“Every day, I look down at the murderous village of Huwara where the murderer of my sons is still walking free, where they handed out pastries and celebrated after the murder,” Esti Yaniv said. “I was horrified to hear of this dreadful campaign, [launched] a day after many of the residents of Huwara celebrated after the murder of my sons.”
And for those on the left that like to engage in moral relativism, just sit tight. We have millions of illegal aliens in our country now that came from cultures that have a very different notion of what is acceptable and what is not. I’ve noticed that leftist outrage towards Israel will frequently result in a similar situation in America that the tolerant leftist find upsetting. Those that think pastries being handed out in America following the murder of an innocent American citizen is outrageous are fooling themselves.
Lenny notes in his podcast that the arabs aren’t the least concerned about any actions the IDF may take, they view the IDF as no deterrent at all. The Jewish citizens living near by? Them they are scared of. Good.
The article starts out talking about the start of WWII, but then gets into January 6th.. I found this very interesting because the writer’s father lived through Kristallnacht.
Let’s fast-forward to the events of January 6th, 2021. Even with the release of 40,000 hours of video from the day, there are many things that we do not know. It has been reported that President Trump suggested that the National Guard be stationed near the Capital because of his planned rally; this request was not acted upon or may have been actively turned down by Nancy Pelosi. The Capitol police, according to the recent interview of former Capitol police officer, Lt. Tarik Johnson by Tucker Carlson, was not briefed or prepared for what was obvious to all
And I haven’t even touched on the hearings going on about Covid, gain of function, the lying about cheap already available cures for it that were disregarded because if they had been put into use Tony Fauxci and his cabal of “doctors” couldn’t get the emergency use license for the experimental gene altering clot shots. The use of taxpayer money to fund gain of function, and Fauxci is still sending your money to Joe Xiden’s boss, China, I do believe. But not to be outdone, Hunter Xiden helped finance the bioweapons labs in Ukraine I think I’ve heard. Man, that would be so scary to have bioweapons labs right next door in Canada or Mexico. I mean seeing as how America handled Covid, what with putting Mom and Pop businesses out, forcing people into medical experiments they didn’t want and changing the definition of the word “vaccine”. Yeah, the way America handles that stuff would be enough to make any government a bit concerned, shall we say.
The perfect play swing
My point is this, the current federal government, and some state governments hate us, U.S. The federal law enforcement agencies under the misnamed DOJ, hate us. And I think if I’m intellectually honest with myself, I need to admit it. I’m not saying we can do much different at this point, unless you have a Congress Critter or Senator that is willing to listen, and then ask for the FIB, ATF to be de-funded and dis-banded. At this point to not do so is like voting to keep the brown shirts (and I don’t mean UPS) around. They offer nothing of value to the average law-abiding citizen.
I would maintain the appropriate response to these atrocities is hate. They do hate us, and they are willing to kill us. You could ask Roseanne Boyland or Ashli Babbitt…but.
Just as the idea of fighting back when attacked has been taught out of school children, the notion of appropriate hate is not really in our culture I don’t think. The things the left calls “hate” or “hateful” is usually free speech, or saying something they don’t like. Or giving evidence or showing video that destroys a leftist narrative. The left (demoncrat and RINO) is terrified by the thought of putting information out and allowing people to form their own thoughts and opinions. That is something they can’t abide.
There is a time, when hate is the appropriate response.
So Purim; the holiday where we celebrate the survival of the Jewish nation over the evil wishes of Fauxci and Pfizer the evil Hamen to wipe out the Jewish nation, or everyone depending on the villain you chose for the statement. It’s been said most Jewish holidays can be summed up with “They tried to kill us, we won, let’s eat”. Purim is one of those events in history that remind us of the difference between self-defense as a human right, and self-defense as a privilege. The King had agreed to the wicked Hamen’s request to allow him to kill all the Jews in Persia. He signed a royal decree and sealed it, the decree had been dispatched all over the country. When Hamen was exposed for what he was, and the King was appalled at what was fixin’ to happen he began granting Queen Esther/Hadassah’s requests one after the other. But the fly in the ointment was the decree to kill the Jews. That was a royal decree, signed and sealed and couldn’t be recalled. So what to do? Another royal decree saying the Jews would be allowed to used armed resistance to defend themselves.
Once again the King’s scribes were called, and the new decrees were prepared, this time dictated by Mordechai himself. The documents were immediately dispatched by royal couriers riding on swift steeds to all the governors and princes of the 127 provinces of the Persian Empire, from India to Ethiopia. By these royal decrees, permission was granted to the Jews to gather on the thirteenth day of Adar and defend themselves against their enemies, and to attack and slay all those who would assault them.
Purim is a very different holiday than Hanukkah, or Pesach. In both of those holidays G-d is very obviously present. Meaning frogs raining down is not normal, seas splitting are not normal, it’s obvious, he’s there. Hanukkah, the great victory of a tiny band of Jews committed to freedom and living as G-d had instructed against a mighty army is a big thing. But Purim? Where are the big supernatural miracles? There really aren’t any. Any decent husband (so I’m told) grants their wife’s requests from time to time. Not wanting to see her kinfolk slaughtered because of a command you gave seems a normal thing to me. I mean for one thing it’s going to make for extremely tense marital relations for a long time I would think. The Jews fighting for their lives and winning? That happens. So, in Hanukkah and Pesach G-d’s presence is very much revealed, in Purim, not so much. Nor is his name mentioned at all in the Megelliah (book/story of Esther).
So I’ve been looking at some of the information that is being revealed in just the last couple of weeks. Things that are becoming known that people (evil people) have tried to keep hidden as Hamen tried to keep his real motives hidden. The information may well help people see more accurately the situation of our country, and we as a people are in. Prager U had a question up on Twitter not long ago, “What do you consider the biggest threat to our country”? I answered “CNN and MSNBC believing viewers”.
This basically does away with our Constitution and Bill of Rights, we know what Beijing Biden is planning to do, the corrupt head of the WHO was installed by China.
Back in March Dowd said that U.S. millennials, aged 25-44, experienced a record-setting 84% increase in excess mortality during the final four months of 2021.
According to Ed Dowd, the latest numbers from August revealed an excess mortality rate of 36% for millennials.
Huh, that’s weird. I wonder what could be different in working aged people? Did the change their diet? Quit jogging, take up any new drugs?
Are the people of Chicago finally waking up and rejecting identity politics and seeing the state of their city as a result of falling for them? Are they rejecting the MSM narrative fed to them? I pray so. Beetlejuice has different groups she blames for her loss. Not criminals or Kim Fox of course, or her own policies. Nope, racism. Of course. Apparently she forgot she was a black woman when she initially campaigned and won. So she blames racists. Sleeper cells of MAGA living in Chiraq. Soaring crime rates and a decimated police force had nothing to do with it. Nothing at all.
Purim is a fun holiday and often we dress up in costumes, but my prayer is for those hiding who they truly are behind sweet words that are lies, and attempts to mislead the American people be exposed as Hamen was. May all the masks be ripped off.
And lastly, while this has nothing to do with Purim, Joe Dan does great videos and in this one there is a clip of Dr. Robert Malone talking about 5th Generation Warfare, and what we’ve been subjected to. As it’s all about who’s concealed, it does kind of apply. Because it is what we’re dealing with. Well, a component of it at least.
So Purim starts Monday night, and I want to wish you all a happy and joyous Purim. May those who seek to destroy us meet the same fate as the wicked Hamen.
Chag Purim Samach
