Our good friends on the left are just up in arms over President Trump’s meeting with Soviet Russian President Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin in Alaska, ostensibly to discuss some way to end the Russo-Ukrainian War, which has been raging — well, maybe raging isn’t the right word; how about plodding along? — for 3½ years now. The Philadelphia Inquirer’s Trudy Rubin, as much of a neocon as anyone working for the Inky can be, frets: Continue reading

The one tool Hamas have
Every once in a while, a ‘Palestinian’ ‘leader’ will do something really radical and tell the truth. It’s a very different thing, because, to paraphrase Mary McCarthy, “Every word they utter is a lie, including ‘and’ and ‘the’.” But sometimes the truth is so in-you-face obvious that it cannot be denied.
âWe have to reconsider our toolsâ: Terror chief Zubeidi laments that all Palestinian strategies have failed
Thoughts on Nagasaki Day
Atomic bomb cloud over Nagasaki.
Mom didn’t really discuss her life in Tokyo that much. She was one of hundreds of WACs who typed up letters to the families of servicemen killed in action, and she did tell me that she could not refer to the “Korean War”, but only the “Korean conflict” or “Korean Police Action.”
But one point that she made several times was that we should not have used the atomic bomb. Rather, she said we should have detonated it in Tokyo Bay, a demonstration shot as it were, to show the Japanese what could happen to them if they didn’t surrender. The problem with that argument, though I didn’t make it at the time, was that we only had two atomic bombs at the time. What if it had failed? Continue reading
The Philadelphia Inquirer harbors illegal immigrants There is plenty of dignity in obeying the law; there is none in breaking it.
As we have previously noted, The Philadelphia Inquirer is very much on the side of the illegal immigrants. The good journolists[1]The spelling âjournolistâ or ‘journolism’ comes from JournoList, an email list of 400 influential and politically liberal journalists, the exposure of which called into question their … Continue reading there, from the far-loeft Will Bunch to even the more moderate Daniel Pearson, the newspaper’s chief editorial writer, all want the illegals — at The First Street Journal we do not use the euphemism ‘undocumented’ — to be allowed to stay here.
But now they might have just fouled up:
âThe last thing that is protecting my dignity.â A South Philly mother talks about life under sanctuary.

If you are not calling on Hamas to surrender and release the hostages, your cries about people suffering in Gaza are worthless.
Armand Domalewski describes himself, in his Twitter biography, as a “Data scientist” living in San Francisco, and “Co-Founder, YIMBYs for Harris”. He’s actually followed by several real people I know, so perhaps he’s not an actual Palestinian bot, like so many of the other pro-Hamas posters on social media, but in this, he might as well be.
Mr Domalewski tweeted that the headline on the Babylon Bee satire site, “Gaza Said To Be Starving But Not ‘Release The Hostages’ Starving,” “is an evil, evil, evil headline”, But, even from a sarcasm site, it’s an accurate headline. The only thing that needs to happen for tons and tons of food and other aid to flow into Gaza is for Hamas to surrender and release the hostages. But the Palestinians and their useful idiots on social media would rather keep on fighting an unwinnable war. Continue reading
For the people of Gaza to receive any aid, they must repudiate Hamas and surrender Hamas leadership don't care about the people, because they're living in luxury in Qatar
The current ‘Palestinian’ sympathizer meme on Twitter — as always, I refuse to call it đ, the absolute worst rebranding in history — is that the poor, poor Palestinian children, children! are starving. A gentleman calling himself Dr Mohammed al Najjar tweeted:
Doctors in Gaza collapse in operating rooms from hunger.
Ambulance drivers canât drive, their stomachs empty.
A hungry doctor treats a hungry patient brought by a hungry driver.
To the free people of the world: Say ENOUGH to this starvation
It’s not just Dr Najjar — assuming he’s a real person and not just another pro-terrorist bot — but many others appearing in my feeds. Continue reading
Why should #Hamas surrender? The 'leadership' live in a well-fed, cushy exile while their people in Gaza can do nothing
Taher al Nunu, the new Hamas spokesfool, does not look as though he has been plagued by food insecurity.
And it has worked! Neither Germany nor Japan has tried to conquer anyone, at least not through war, though their economic power has expanded far beyond their borders. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is insisting on the same thing when it comes to Gaza:
Netanyahu, leaving for DC: Weâre working for Gaza deal on our terms, Hamas wonât be there; chance to greatly expand peace accords
By Lazar Berman | Sunday, July 6, 2025
Before boarding his flight to Washington, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says that Israel has an opportunity âto expand the circle of peace far beyond what we could have imagined.â Continue reading
Why do the left always root for the bad guys? When the left tell you who they are, believe them!
We have previously asked why the left always root for the bad guys, pointing out that “heroes” like Michael Brown, George Floyd, Freddie Gray, and Trayvon Martin were all bad guys, and noting how The Philadelphia Inquirer’s far-left columnist wants another bad guy, Kilmar Abrego Garcia, someone even he admitted is an “undocumented immigrant (who) was no angel.”
Now comes Representative Pramila Jayapal of Washington state, one of the ‘squadristi‘, and she is just beside herself that the Trump Administration is deporting convicted criminals!
The Trump administration just dropped 8 immigrants â who they were previously holding in a shipping container in Djibouti â into war torn South Sudan.
Cruel. Inhumane. There arenât words to describe how disgusting this is.
Weâll keep fighting.
My good friend William Teach reported on just what angels these eight deportees are, including this line:
They have been convicted of various crimes, with four of them convicted of murder, the Department of Homeland Security has said.
These are the guys for whom the distinguished gentlelady from Washington said, “We’ll keep fighting.”
When the left tell you who they are, believe them!
Bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb Iran?
Former Ambassador John Bolton seems to have never met a war in which he didn’t want the United States involved, but Wikipedia noted his opinions during the War in Vietnam:
Bolton was a supporter of the Vietnam War, but avoided combat through a student deferment followed by enlistment in the Maryland Air National Guard. During the 1969 Vietnam War draft lottery, Bolton drew number 185. (Draft numbers were assigned by birth date. Numbers 1 to 195 were eventually called up.) As a result of the Johnson and Nixon administrations’ decisions to rely largely on the draft rather than on the reserve forces, joining a Guard or Reserve unit became a way to reduce the chances of service in Vietnam.
