Bad causes attract bad people Why do the pro-#Hamas groups always lie through their scummy teeth?

I have been amused by the so-called #GlobalMarchToGaza and the silliness of Western liberals in their sympathy for the people who started a war they couldn’t finish, and pointed out their naïveté of hundreds of protesters who believed that Egypt would simply allow them to march through the Sinai desert to the border with Gaza, in theory to break the “siege.”

In a recent post on Twitter — I refuse to call it 𝕏 — the group were kind enough to include the link to their website, which I naturally checked. So, what did I find?

Is Global March To Gaza a political movement?

  • No. Global March To Gaza is a civic, apolitical, and independent movement.
  • We do not represent any political party, ideology, or religion.
  • We represent the people, in all their diversity and humanism.
  • Our only guiding principles are justice, human dignity, and peace.

So, they claim to be apolitical, to suck in the Western liberals, but a group whose “only guiding principles are justice, human dignity, and peace” would also have been calling for Hamas to release all of the remaining hostages. That I did not find.

One of the six ‘luminaries’ shown, Zwelivelile Mandla Mandela, Chief of the Mvezo Traditional Council, the Amir of the Royal House of Mandela, and the grandson of former President Nelson Mandela, was depicted wearing a ‘Palestinian’ keffiyeh.

The Global March to Gaza are as apolitical as our Democratic Party.

I never expect any group which tells us it is apolitical to actually be apolitical, and once again, I was proven right.

I’ve said it before: bad causes attract bad people, and the Global March to Gaza organizers are simply bad people.

What did they think would happen?

Let’s tell the truth here: Western liberals are, collectively, as dumb as a box of rocks. Images of the border wall between Gaza and Egypt are all over the internet, and anyone who can use Teh Google could have looked up the fact that the Egyptian government see Hamas as just another facet of the Muslim Brotherhood, an Islamist group outlawed in Egypt. Egypt has been ‘helping’ with negotiations between Hamas and Israel, because Egypt still dislikes Western civilization — other than Western nations’ money that is! — but sees political Islam as a real threat. That border wall, built by Egypt, not Israel, certainly more of an impediment than the big, beautiful wall President Trump has been building between the United States and Mexico, was meant to keep ‘Palestinians’ from getting into Egypt, because Egypt sees them for what they are: nothing but radical malcontents who have caused trouble everywhere the’ve gone.

Knowing all of that, why would the #GlobalMarchToGaza think that the Egyptian government would go along with their plans? Continue reading →

World War III Watch: Israel tries to destroy Iran’s nuclear capabilities

There’s one inescapable fact in life: the Israelis are just plain smarter than the Muslims!

We normally use our headline World War III Watch for escalation in the Russo-Ukrainian War, but this time it’s Israel trying to prevent World War III, by going after the Iranian military command and the Islamic Republic’s programs to build nuclear weapons. Robert Stacy McCain wrote:

It has been pointed out that, on April 12, Trump said Iran had 60 days to reach an agreement on ending its nuclear weapons program, and today? Yeah — Day 61.

Anyway, this is YUGE:

Iran’s state-run Islamic Republic News Agency (IRNA) confirmed in the early hours of Friday morning local time that Israeli airstrikes on targets in the country eliminated Major General Hossein Salami, the commander of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC).

Other arms of Iran’s state news apparatus confirmed several other high-profile regime members, including two nuclear scientists, were killed in the strikes. While unverified reports suggested that Salami may be far from the only high-ranking Iranian regime official to have been targeted successfully in the operation, he is the only one whose death the Iranian government has confirmed at press time.

Salami has sustained a place as one of the most prominent and belligerent senior leaders in the Iranian Islamist regime, regularly threatening attacks on America and Israel. In what was perhaps his final public appearance on Thursday, Salami declared that his forces were “war-tested and experienced,” prepared for war against its enemies.

I have to admit it: I have a natural revulsion to these kinds of attacks, but in the case of Iran and its continually threatening stance, I see it more as an attack against Nazi Germany before the Third Reich was really prepared for war. I’ve been very concerned about war with Russia spreading outside of Ukraine, because Russia has a strategic nuclear arsenal; what Israel has been doing is to try to keep Iran from building nuclear weapons.

Mr McCain entitled his article “‘An Earth-Shattering Kaboom’: Israel Wipes Out Top Iranian Military Leaders,” so I just have to include that video from Bugs Bunny; it’ll be below the fold. Continue reading →

Another Park Slope liberal cannot see what is right in front of her She is defending a people who would happily kill her

Jo-Ann Mort, from her website.

Jewish “Humanitarian leftist”, self-described co-founder of the Democratic Socialists of America, Jo-Ann Mort sees anti-Semitism in conservative policies, but can’t see that it permeates the Democratic Party and the ‘Palestinians’ she so wants to see free and independent.

You can oppose Israel’s policies without killing Jewish people

The majority of US Jews overwhelmingly oppose Netanyahu’s policies. But subtleties get lost and truly unleashed people react

World War III Watch: Britain goes all out neocon

Prussian Field Marshall Helmuth von Moltke the Elder wrote, “No plan of operations extends with certainty beyond the first encounter with the enemy’s main strength,” which is frequently bastardized as “No plan survives contact with the enemy.” I’m old enough to remember when debates in the United States were all about matching the Soviets in warheads, weapons, and delivery systems. The impetus was less deterrence than it was being able to fight the USSR on the European battlefield. It all made sense, if you thought a nuclear war was a winnable thing. It was as though we could actually plan out a war that included using nuclear weapons, and somehow emerge victorious.

We have used nuclear weapons in war, and emerged victorious, but that is because the enemy didn’t have them, and because his plan to knock out the American fleet at Pearl Harbor did not survive first contact with the enemy. Yes, the Japanese attack sank four battleships and seriously damaged four more, also sinking or damaging three cruisers, three destroyers, an anti-aircraft training ship, and a minelayer. There were no aircraft carriers in port, and the wrath of our country was raised, and our industrial might undamaged.

Now, with Donald Trump having won the 2024 election, and his great reticence to get involved in the Russo-Ukrainian War, our European allies in NATO are revisiting notions of, as Major Kong put it, “Nuclear combat, toe-to-toe with the Russkies.”

Dropping tactical nuclear weapons was a major strategic error. We must correct it

World War III Watch: It could still happen if people get stupid

It was only a couple of days ago that the democratic West was buoyed by Ukraine’s deep strikes into Russia. From The Washington Post:

Ukraine’s drones disrupt Russia with airport closures, internet blackouts

As Ukrainian drones strike deep into Russian territory, they are disrupting day-to-day life and reminding Russians that the war is not confined to the trenches.

by Mary Ilyushina | Memorial Day, May 26, 2025

Large-scale Ukrainian drone attacks have rattled multiple Russian regions for the third consecutive day, grounding flights, disrupting internet access and stretching the country’s air defense systems thin. Continue reading →

So many who want to “Free Palestine” are willing to shoot unarmed Jews

I have said it before: if we had social media back in 1944, the Usual Suspects wopuld have been decrying the violence and whining that Germany was defeated, that there was no need to continue the march into Germany proper, and think of all of the poor, innocent civilians who would be killed! Had such people been around then, they wouldn’t have cared that their calls for a “Ceasefire Now!” would have left der Führer and his henchmen alive and in power, and a couple of the concentration camps in place, but still . . . .

This morning’s story is what piqued The Philadelphia Inquirer’s far-left columnist’s ire: Continue reading →

Once again, Hahvahd is producing The Best and The Brightest!

Harvard University, our nation’s oldest and most prestigious institution of higher learning — though any college which accepted David Hogg and granted him a degree has to be suspect when the term “higher learning” is applied to it — is suing the Trump Administration over federal spending cuts to the school due to Hahvahd’s refusal to go along with measures to protect Jewish students and personnel from the anti-Semitism which has been running rampant through our (supposedly) top universities.

So, naturally the Usual Suspects decide to demonstrate their anti-Semitism! Continue reading →

Requiescat in Pace, Pope Francis

My Twitter — I refuse to call it 𝕏 — feed was full of chortling posts claiming that the Vatican denied Vice President J D Vance a meeting with Pope Francis, sending the Vatican’s second-ranking official instead, in what the left loudly proclaimed was a deliberate snub to Mr Vance.

That’s not quite what it was.

The story behind JD Vance’s unlikely visit with Pope Francis

Vance and Francis had publicly disagreed in recent months on immigration policies and other aspects of church teaching.
