⭕ For me, this is an emotional day. If the U.S. and Israel follow through, I will be extremely happy.
U.S. military aid is a set of golden handcuffs for Israel. If Israel wants true independence, this needs to happen. American defense companies may take a hit, but they will recover.
The U.S.–Israel alliance should be a partnership of equals, built on mutual benefit, rather than a relationship between a master and a dependent. If a future Democratic administration turns hostile toward Israel, Israel should be free to respond—including by reconsidering intelligence sharing and other cooperation. Washington would quickly understand how much Israel brings to the table.
I’ve said it before: Israel needs to be ready. Trump will not be in the White House forever.
I believe this is an excellent move for Israel’s independence and long-term security. And to the Democrats and the woke right who kept pushing this issue: thank you for helping make the case.
A great day!
🚨 BREAKING 🚨 Trump told Fox News that he agreed with Israel a few months ago to end roughly $4 billion in annual U.S. military assistance. “We will not pay them anymore. They are a successful country. They do not need it. For context, the annual package is $3.8 billion: $3.3 billion in military grants used primarily to purchase American defense equipment and services, plus $500 million for joint missile-defense programs. Much of the money goes to U.S. defense companies.

A Dearborn resident opposed naming a street after Hezbollah supporter Osama Siblani.
Mayor Abdullah Hammoud snapped back: “You do not belong in this city, Islamophobe! Get out, you are not welcome here.”
He’s currently campaigning with Abdul El-Sayed.

If you actually thought it was a genocide, why would you make it into a punchline?

I fear what will happen when a critical mass of Canadians come to the conclusion that the justice system doesn't dispense justice.

It would be more reassuring if national Democrats could say:
"Everybody in Democratic leadership will combine to curb the ugliest instincts of a Senator el-Sayed. We'll vote funds to protect Jewish institutions from the antisemitic violence that el-Sayed made excuses for. We'll assign him to healthcare committees and keep him far, far away from Homeland Security. We desperately need this seat to hold the Trump administration accountable, but we're not going to lie to you and pretend the guy is anything other than what he is. That would be disrespectful and dishonest. Trump is the main issue here. You have our promise that this nomination is a one-time aberration - and that the rest of us will continue to uphold Jewish safety at home and the US-Israel alliance overseas."
Instead it's all unconvincing and insulting gaslighting - and not-so-subtle signals that if el-Sayed wins, many more Democrats will adopt his style of politics.

Harvard Professor: “But as an institution, UNRWA is not biased. The investigation has cleared UNRWA.”
Hillel Neuer: “Which investigation? Who was cleared?”
Harvard Professor: “Look, I don't want to engage in litigation of all the numbers and facts...”

Here — I am posting my entire Harvard debate, on whether the U.N. treats Israel equally. I decided to ask Harvard University why they repeatedly host and support U.N. rapporteurs who justify terrorism, including Francesca Albanese, Tlaleng Mofokeng, and Michael Fakhri.

Today's @Harvard live-streamed seminar featuring @HillelNeuer (@UNWatch) is worth watching for a number of reasons. Neuer is a world class speaker and expert on the UN's role in demonizing Israel & promoting antisemitism. Previously, the @CarrCenter led by Mathias Risse hosted @FranceskAlbs - the top UN Jew-hater, among other propagandists. But Risse is not chairing Neuer's event. Why? >>

António Guterres has posted about Gaza and the Palestinians 262 times since October 7, 2023.
Eleven other major crises, combined: 185.
His own X account, Oct 7 2023 to today:
1. Gaza / Palestinians: 262
2. Sudan: 46. His own UN says the death toll is likely in the hundreds of thousands, with 13 million displaced.
3. Syria: 32
4. Ukraine: 29. 17,600+ civilians killed, verified by the UN.
5. Yemen: 19
6. Myanmar / Rohingya: 18. 4 million displaced.
7. DR Congo: 15. 6 million displaced.
8. Haiti: 14. 1.5 million displaced.
9. Afghanistan: 12. Only 6 mention Afghan women and girls.
10. Nigeria: 3
11. Armenians / Karabakh: 1
12. Ethiopia / Tigray: 1, and it was about a landslide.
13. Uyghurs: 0. Zero.
Iranian protesters killed by their own regime? One post.
Suffering is suffering.
The Secretary-General just doesn't seem to count it that way.
The Palestinian people continue to endure immense suffering.
Israeli restrictions on humanitarian assistance must be lifted.
The obstacles to implementation of the Comprehensive Plan to End the Gaza Conflict endorsed by the Security Council must be removed.
Civilians must be protected.
And international law must be respected.
The two-State solution remains the only viable path: Israel & Palestine living side-by-side in peace & security.

El-Sayed says Israel gets us into fights with our "other friends" — have to wonder who he thinks those other "friends" are
Democratic candidate Abdul El-Sayed shared his views on U.S.-Israel relations, saying he does not consider Israel an American ally: “I think it’s time for us to realize that Israel is not actually our friend.”

An UNRWA teacher goes public on the indoctrination of children by UNRWA in Gaza. She said she believes the indoctrination has grown worse since October 7th and that if not addressed, another October 7th is inevitable. “If the upcoming generations in Gaza have the capabilities to make another attack, they will make it,” she warned.
She says sixth graders are taught to blame Jews for Palestinian suffering, young girls are encouraged to continue Hamas’s war against Jews, and when she objected, a school administrator threatened to cut out her tongue with scissors.
She called for an overhaul of Gaza’s schools, including changes to the curriculum and independent oversight of teachers. “It’s more important than disarming Hamas or changing who will govern Gaza,” she said. “Because this can change the future.”
I think UNRWA is running its own version of "pay-for-slay"
The sharia law compliant "aid," which is exclusive for Muslims, is mostly distributed in cash. It prioritizes a unique definition "orphans," which Palestinians re-defined as, "a child without a FATHER"
You do the math.

BREAKING: UN torture expert denounces colleagues Francesca Albanese and Reem Alsalem for denying October 7 atrocities and ignoring Hamas torture of Israeli hostages: “My colleagues said nothing. I felt ashamed. Their one-sided, vitriolic reports added to families’ anguish.”
Dr. Alice Jill Edwards: “The UN had done so little to help them... I felt ashamed. I am still outraged that UN special rapporteurs Francesca Albanese and Reem Alsalem never formally documented these horrors. Instead, both have continued to issue a stream of what I regard as one-sided and vitriolic reports, and hard-to-justify excuses for their lack of attention. That, families and returned hostages have told me, only added to their anguish.”
