After two years of barraging social media with lies about a famine in Gaza, Hamas propaganda channels are now trying to cover up their obesity by claiming that Israel is making them fat. One recent Hamas media story clamored that “they’re forcing us to gain weight”, and objected that supermarkets have “shelves overflowing with chocolate, soft drinks, and cigarettes”, along with unhealthy “flour and various types of cheese used in sweets and pizza, in addition to sugar and flour derivatives used in confectionery production.” An Arab Muslim settler in Gaza who had previously justified the Hamas massacres complained, “I am compelled to consume carbohydrates, processed cheese, and manufactured meat.” What some are calling the ‘Fatocide’ reflects the reality that there was never a famine in Gaza, but there was a very real obesity problem . Past reports had found high rates of obesity among children and adults in Gaza and a 2019 study found that almost half of adults over the age of 42 had ...

The Brazilian rainforest is so endangered that the latest UN climate conference will take place there. Along the way to saving the planet, a four lane highway had to be cut through tens of thousands of acres of protected and endangered rainforest. Endangered by its protectors. (But the good news, according to the Brazilian government, is that it’s a “sustainable highway.) And if that’s not enough, fleets of jets will soon descend on the Brazilian rainforest as an estimated 45,000 attendees will show up to party, socialize, conference, and listen to lectures about how this time the planet is really on the edge of destruction. Please pass the canapes. COP30, as the conference is known, hasn’t saved the planet in 29 conferences, but maybe the 30th one will do the trick, at least if the delegates can find someplace to stay in the rainforest. The Brazilian government is announcing that individual rooms are available for planet-savers from other countries for as high as $600. Over the summe...

“More than 70 repatriation missions have returned 1,500 fighters to their home countries, yet much work remains,” Adm. Brad Cooper told a UN conference in New York. “Today, I join you all in calling on every nation with detained or displaced personnel in Syria to return your citizens.” The ‘citizens’ and ‘fighters’ in question are ISIS. And some are coming here. Even while one arm of the Trump administration is trying to deport Islamic terrorists and their supporters, another is trying to import them into our communities and around the world. While ISIS is rebounding in Syria , carrying out 117 attacks, the United States has adopted the position that the tens of thousands of ISIS ‘detainees’ left over from the previous defeat of the Jihadist group have to be distributed around the region and the world including to the U.S. When an Al Qaeda group known as Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) seized control over Syria , with backing from the Islamist terror regimes in Turkey and Qatar, the Trump...

The trailer for ‘ORWELL 2+2=5’ begins with a heavy voiceover declaring, “when I sit down to write a book, I write it because there is some lie that I want to expose”. Two minutes later there is a photo of a BLM activist holding up an “I can’t breathe” sign. Such unintentional irony pervades a documentary which claims that what George Orwell really wanted to warn about in ‘1984’ were the dangers of free speech and political dissent. Not Communism. An Orwell documentary that treats ‘misinformation’ as the sort of threat that Orwell was warning about, rather than an Orwellian term for demonizing speech and providing a pretext for government propaganda and censorship of the kind that we see in ‘1984’, has lost the plot. But ‘ORWELL 2+2=5’ has an entirely different plot aimed at turning Orwell into Big Brother. ‘ORWELL 2+2=5′ was written and directed by Raoul Peck: a Haitian radical activist who made a movie celebrating Communist mass murderer Patrice Lumumba. George Orwell struggled agains...

How did an Islamist socialist who posed with an unindicted terror bombing coconspirator become elected to head a city of terror survivors, the “most Jewish city in America” and how did he defeat an Italian-American political dynasty in what was once an Italian-American city? Because that New York City, the one people imagine from movies, no longer exists.   In 1989, the last year of Mayor Ed Koch’s administration, Jews outnumbered Muslims roughly 4 to 1. By 2013, the last year of Mayor Michael Bloomberg’s administration, the number of Muslims had doubled and the number of Jews continued to drop. And by the time Zohran Mamdani beat Andrew Cuomo, there were more Muslims than Italian Americans in NYC. So much for New York City being the “most Jewish city” in America. Or “Italian city”. Like so many European cities, it’s been redefined by waves of Muslim mass migration. There wasn’t an Irish candidate in the race because the number of Irish-Americans in what is considered “one of ...

1. No, Mamdani Doesn't Have a Mandate. Zohran Mamdani won a little over 1 million votes (at current count) in a city with a population of around 7 million adults. That’s about 14%. The total election turnout was a little over 2 million (that will likely increase) making for an election turnout of 28%. That’s not even a third of New York City’s population. New York City’s election turnout has always been weak. And while the city has a large illegal alien population, it still has 5 million registered voters. That’s a below 40% turnout rate even for registered voters. The media is hyping this as the highest election turnout in decades. Only if you don’t pay attention to population growth. In the 1993 showdown between Giuliani and Dinkins, a racist hack who let the city burn, and whom Bill de Blasio viewed as an inspiration, 1.9 million voters turned out in a city with a smaller population and 3 million registered voters for a 59% voter turnout. The turnout fell in the 2001 election th...

After blowing through $1.5 billion to lose an election, Kamala is back. And wants to run again. “I am not done,” Kamala Harris declared. “I have lived my entire career as a life of service and it’s in my bones.” The terrible polls won’t be stopping her because “if I listened to polls I would have not run for my first office, or my second office – and I certainly wouldn’t be sitting here.” Kamala’s previous presidential campaign foundered when she couldn’t explain what the Harris-Walz administration would do differently than the Biden-Harris administration. This time around she can’t explain how she would run any differently in 2028 than she did in 2024. 107 Days, her campaign book, blames everybody and everything else for her defeat, including the Biden team, racism, sexism and only having 107 days in which to figure out who she was. 470 days later and counting, Kamala Harris is still claiming that Biden was “competent to serve” and couldn’t explain what she would have done differently...
