It's too glorious to hold back on. The clowns are showing an unbelievable combination of open glee and lack of self-restraint. Maybe the IDF was getting its ducks in a row, coupled with some hesitation born of astonishment at the reaction noted above. The massacre was precisely the excuse that these clowns were looking for. It's part of Hamas' P.R. strategy, which the media have readily fallen for. Perhaps same as above. Is there even a power plant, if Israel supplies the electricity? Perhaps again sensitivity to world reaction. As several cited authors have stated, Egypt despises Hamas and its supporters, too. Progressives perhaps view things as purely political and of an oppressor/oppressed nature. The Jews in support of it have Leftism, not Judaism, as their religion. If it's the same incident, I read a story about it just tonight. Will try to find it. Jews worldwide are going to live in conscious fear for a very long time.

This needs readin'. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Pogroms are back. Did you know that Jews make up only 0.2% of the world's population? One-fifth of 1%. Statistically speaking the Jewish population is only a rounding error. And if many people get their way, Jews will be rounded up and then rounded down to 0%.

Surprise! See the actual comments straight from their mouths. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Hamas: Protecting Gazans Not Our Job [...] Most of us tend to think that the primary role of a government is to provide basic services, enforce the law, provide order, and protect citizens. Even tyrannical governments do most of these things, although they often pick and choose who gets the benefits of protection. Hamas doesn't serve this purpose in Gaza. It acts as a warlord gang, not as a government. It is essentially ISIS or al Qaeda with the trappings of a state wrapped around it.

Israel to Hamas: No Cease Fire -- Surrender Unconditionally or Die [...] the Israelis have finally and fully internalized the existential threat Hamas represents to their country and to Jews everywhere. So does Benjamin Netanyahu, who sent a similar message to world leaders and foreign media this afternoon as well. Calls for a "cease fire" constitutes a surrender, and Israel will no longer play along with Hamas annihilationists: [...] https://hotair.com/ed-morrissey/2023/10/30/israel-to-hamas-no-cease-fire-surrender-unconditionally-or-die-n588775

If it's Texas, I might have insights.

Some Fed agencies (and agents) are far too big for their britches.

Unless there are specific instructions otherwise, there's no need to notarize almost anything immigration-related.

'There Goes THAT Narrative.'

Interesting points here. Comments? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Trump: 'The Fight Between Israel and Hamas Is Between Civilization and Savagery' [...] Now, imagine for a moment that you were the mother or father of a young man who had murdered ten people. What kind of person would your son be if he not only committed these murders, but called you to boast about them? What kind of person would you be if you were proud papa or mama in that situation? What could possibly account for this mindset? And how could anyone think that these savages (because that is what they are) have the moral high ground? Yet it is clear now that all too many people in the West assume that they do. Few understand how deep this love of death really goes.

A powerful, in-depth look at hospitals' deadly 'COVID protocols' Stella Paul wrote a series of articles for American Thinker exposing the terrible things that happened in American hospitals because of the new "COVID protocols"—things that the American public is already forgetting. Several days ago, she sat down for a long interview with an investigative reporter at the Epoch Times to expand on the information she provided to American Thinker readers. [...] For those who prefer listening to reading, you're in luck. On October 17, Epoch TV published Ms. Paul's 48-minute-long interview with Jan Jekielek, during which they discussed one of the greatest medical scandals—perhaps the greatest medical scandal—in American history.

It is Sunday, and time for our Official Weekly VAWA-Thread Joke: ====================================================== FOLLOW THE PLOW A blonde driving a car became lost in a snowstorm. She didn't panic, however, because she remembered what her dad had once told her: "If you ever get stuck in a snowstorm, just wait for a snowplow to come by and follow it." Sure enough, pretty soon a snowplow came by, and she started to follow it. She followed the plow for about 45 minutes. Finally, the driver of the truck got out and asked her what she was doing. She explained that her dad had told her if she ever got stuck in a snowstorm, to follow a plow. The driver nodded and said, "Well, I'm done with the Walmart parking lot; do you want to follow me over to Best Buy now?"
