How was is it possible for someone to get into a top security area in the State Dept to Carve a Swastika on a Elevator door without getting caught

 

Last Monday, some pathetic little bigot cut a big Nazi swastika into the wooden paneling of elevator 36 at the US Department of State.

Elevator 36 isn't a service elevator open to any passing tradesman, nor is it open to the public. It's not even in one of the corridors used for VIP tours. 

It's in a security area behind a screening gate, only credentialed employees can have access to it, so whoever is responsible works in a nearby office. There are cameras are all over!

So how did he manage to get away with it? 

I'm sure they know who the culprit is, but are keeping it under wraps, as this guy is probably very high up in the ranks in the State Department...

The State Department are known Arabists and are vicious anti-Semites who actually helped wanted Nazis escape and hired them to work for them.... 

John Loftos a former high level US government prosecutor and former intelligence officer has documented all this in a book.

So who is this guy?

A swastika was found carved into the wall of an elevator inside the State Department’s main headquarters in Washington, DC, on Monday, officials said.

Secretary of State Antony Blinken condemned the hateful vandalism in a Tuesday message to department employees and said the swastika has been removed.

“As this painfully reminds us, antisemitism isn’t a relic of the past,” Blinken said in the message.

“It’s still a force in the world, including close to home. And it’s abhorrent. It has no place in the United States, at the State Department, or anywhere else. And we must be relentless in standing up and rejecting it,” said Blinken.

Blinken, the stepson of a Holocaust survivor, said the incident is under investigation.

18 teenage girls from Boro-Park Monsey Williamsburg are escorted off plane in Amsterdam TWICE!!

 


So is you son in shidduchim? How about doing a shiddich with one of these "Chutzpinaks?"
These girls will no doubt be thought of as martyrs by the heimishe community and will become celebrities, then they will go on to be the mothers of the next generation of our precious Jewish children ...

Eighteen Jewish teenage girls were met by security after arriving at Amsterdam Airport Schiphol on a flight from Kiev on Thursday.

The Orthodox girls were part of a group of 56 who had been on a tour of Jewish sites in Europe, reported Hamodia.

According to a spokesperson from KLM Royal Dutch Airlines, the group had not complied with coronavirus measures during the flight, reported Netherlands News Live.

However, Herman Loonstein, the lawyer for the girls, said that their treatment was “disproportionate.”

KLM is claiming that the passengers took off their masks when they weren’t supposed to and also walked through isles on the plane without wearing masks. According to KLM’s spokesperson, the group did not listen to a flight attendant who asked them to comply with the rules.

They were then met by security at the gate when the plane landed in Amsterdam.

Loonstein said that because KLM does not serve kosher meals on European flights, the girls had brought their own food. This fact was confirmed by the KLM spokesperson.

When two members of the group became hungry, they decided to eat their own food.

KLM said that this was only allowed within specified times, and claimed that the group “mainly used it as an excuse not to have to wear a mask,” reported Netherlands News Live.

This is the second time the group has been accused by KLM of rowdiness.

On July 20, when taking a flight from New York to Amsterdam, KLM said in a statement that the same group of girls on multiple occasions refused to follow in-flight instructions.

“On arrival in Amsterdam, this group was again warned by the KLM security service and pointed out the possible consequences of misconduct. It was also made very clear that this was the last warning.”

The group was given an emergency visa on Friday, allowing them to leave the airport. They will reportedly fly back to the US on Sunday or Monday, according to their lawyer who said he doesn’t know if the flight will be with KLM and that the girls are “fearful” to again fly with the airline.

According to a report in Hamodia, the official cause of the girls’ troubles with KLM is being described by the airline as “unruly behavior” and “refus[ing] to comply with crew instructions” including accusations of cursing at the flight crew.

The allegations were denied by the group who said they complied with all the regulations and wore masks at all times except when eating.

A KLM official also reportedly threatened to ban them from the airline.

The brother of one of the girls alleged in an interview with Hamodia that the flight crew were “harassing the girls the entire time.”

He added that while there were no anti-Semitic comments or statements by the flight crew, he believed that “this is obviously anti-Semitism. They targeted 18 Jewish girls, in alphabetical order, and they didn’t even bother giving a reason.”

The airline, for its part, denied the allegations and said in a statement to Hamodia that the issue was one of safety.

“KLM Royal Dutch Airlines does not tolerate any form of unruly behavior towards passengers or crew. When passengers endanger flight safety and thus the safety of themselves, other passengers and the crew, we take this very seriously. This also applies to passengers not adhering to COVID-19 measures.”

However, the girl’s brother insisted that there was more to the story and that the girls were discriminated against.

“They were adhering to their rules and instructions the entire time. In fact, many of the girls had slept through most of the flight and had no interactions with the flight staff,” he maintained.

Most of the girls are from Monsey, Williamsburg and Borough Park, New York.

Parents of Malki Roth killed by Hamas bomb take on Jordan’s King Abdullah


 Malki Roth was a bubbly 15-year-old who loved her family and friends, playing the flute and visiting her grandparents in Queens. She also loved pizza, which is what brought her to a popular central Jerusalem Sbarro’s on Aug. 9, 2001, to have lunch with a friend.

That’s when Hamas terrorist Abu Muhammad al-Masri walked into the busy restaurant — packed with Israelis and tourists — carrying a guitar case full of explosives, nails, nuts and bolts. The suicide bomber detonated his weapons, killing 15 people and injuring 130.

Among the seven children murdered was Malki, an American living in Jerusalem with her parents and six siblings. The family buried their daughter the next day alongside her closest friend, Michal Raziel, also killed in the attack.

“We knew the first part of our lives had come to an end,” Malki’s father, Arnold Roth, 69, told The Post. It’s a struggle to hold myself back from imagining how her life might have worked out.”

“I sometimes imagine how different the grief would be had [Malki been old enough] to marry and have children [first],” said her mother, Frimet Roth, 67. “A piece of her would have remained with us. But we are left with nothing of her.”

Malki plays flute at annual concert in Ramot.

The Roths are appalled that one of the architects of their daughter’s murder walks free, enjoying the life Malki wasn’t allowed to live.

Ahlam Tamimi, a Jordanian, was 20 when she helped scout the Sbarro location — chosen because it was popular with kids and American tourists — and drove bomber al-Masri on the day of the attack. It was a year into the deadly second intifada, the Palestinian rising against Israel that brought terror to buses, restaurants and other populous locales.

Tamimi confessed to all the charges — always with a smile on her face — and was sentenced in Israel to 16 life sentences. But she ended up unexpectedly freed to Jordan in 2011 as part of prisoner swap for an Israeli soldier held hostage by Hamas.

Since then, Tamimi, now 40, has bragged about killing children. “I wanted to hide my smile, but I just couldn’t,” she said in a 2012 interview of her journey from the restaurant. “On the way back [to Ramallah on a public bus], we passed a Palestinian police checkpoint, and the policemen were laughing. One of them stuck his head in and said: ‘Congratulations to us all.'”

Lebanese Druze block Hezbollah rocket launcher convoy after it fired at Israel

 

Druze residents in a southern Lebanese village halted a Hezbollah convoy carrying rocket launchers that were apparently used to attack Israel on Friday, according to media reports.

The group stopped a truck-mounted multiple launch rocket system as it drove through the village of Chouya in southern Lebanon, video footage showed.

The angry group of villagers accused the terror group members of endangering civilian lives by launching projectiles from close to residential areas.

The Lebanese Army later arrived to confiscate the rocket launcher seen in the video and said it arrested four suspects involved in the rocket fire. It was unclear if any Hezbollah members were detained, but footage showed a man in one of the vehicles surrounded by the crowd.

Reports indicated that the rocket launchers mounted to the vehicle stopped by residents in Chouya were used in the earlier attack, as some of the barrels appeared to be empty.

Hezbollah acknowledged the truck was stopped after the group conducted the attack, but claimed the rockets were fired far from residential areas to ensure civilian safety.

Hezbollah fires almost 20 rockets at Israel; IDF responds with artillery fire

 



Nearly 20 rockets were fired at northern Israel from Lebanon on Friday morning, sending residents in a number of towns in the Golan Heights and Galilee Panhandle scrambling to shelters.

The Israel Defense Forces said 10 projectiles were intercepted by the Iron Dome missile defense system and six landed in open around Mount Dov. Another three rockets failed to clear the border and landed in Lebanese territory, according to the military.

The alarms sounded shortly before 11 a.m. in Ein Quiniyye, Neveh Ativ and Snir, near Israel’s northern border with Lebanon and Syria.

A president who has himself trivialized the Nazi regime to make a partisan political smear appoints as his anti-Semitism envoy the person who defended him a the time

 


 President Joe Biden’s choice of Emory Professor Deborah Lipstadt as America’s Special Envoy to Monitor and Combat Antisemitism has not been greeted with the unqualified approval that might have been expected for such an appointment.

Lipstadt has a stellar academic record as a justly admired scholar of the Holocaust and antisemitism. In 2000, she won a celebrated victory against the Holocaust denier David Irving, who had sued her for libel in a British court.

Yet last September, she defended someone for comparing former President Donald Trump to the Nazi propagandist Joseph Goebbels.

Her reasoning was specious. She tweeted that if Trump had been compared to “what Hitler, Himmler, Heydrich or Eichmann did, she/he would have been wrong. But a comparison to the master of the big lie, Josef Goebbels? That’s historically apt. It’s all about historical nuance.”

But it wasn’t apt at all. The comparison was indefensible. Not only was it an egregiously unjustified smear against Trump; more importantly, it downplayed the evil of Goebbels and grossly disrespected the memory of those who were slaughtered in the Holocaust.

For it wasn’t simply that Goebbels was a lying propagandist. It was that he was a Nazi committed to the extermination of the Jews. To compare Trump to such an individual was ridiculous and shameful, and should have been robustly condemned.

And just who was the individual that Lipstadt defended for making this comparison? Why, none other than one Joe Biden, who was then running for the U.S. presidency.

So a president who has himself downgraded and trivialized the Nazi regime in order to make a partisan political smear appoints as his anti-Semitism envoy the person who defended him in making this repugnant comment.

Moreover, Lipstadt has made other dubious observations. In 2019, she linked Trump to Britain’s hard-left Labour Party leader Jeremy Corbyn—who presided over an explosion of Jew-hatred in his party—when she told an Australian audience that both Trump and Corbyn “have shown themselves to be absolute anti-Semitic enablers.” This was true of Corbyn but untrue about Trump.

Such jarring double standards and partisan judgments have provoked concern that despite her acknowledgment that “some people on the progressive left” indulge “the anti-Semitism of others,” Lipstadt is afflicted by the myopia through which anti-Semitism is viewed as overwhelmingly associated with Nazi supporters and white supremacists.

Anti-Vaxxer Solicitor Dies Of COVID-19 9 Days After Posting That It Is “Nothing To Be Afraid Of”

 

 A British anti-vax solicitor with no underlying health conditions died of coronavirus just days after insisting it is “nothing to be afraid of” and hoping that he had contracted the virus in order to gain natural antibodies to COVID-19.

Leslie Lawrenson, 58, a solicitor from Bournemouth in Southern England, died at his home on 2 July. Lawrenson was a vociferous opponent of the vaccines who spoke out on social media against “taking the jab.”

His partner Amanda Mitchell, 56, became seriously ill while Mr Lawrenson was infected and spent a week in hospital. She said afterwards that his belief that Covid-19 vaccines were too “experimental” put his family at risk.

Mitchell added that Lawrenson had made a “terrible mistake” and warned others to vaccinate immediately, writing on her Facebook page that “I’m trying to stop any other family suffering a loss and the total devastation that we are going through.”

Speaking to the Stephen Nolan program on BBC Radio 5 live, she said: “I feel incredibly foolish. Les died unnecessarily.” Mitchell said that her partner, a graduate of Cambridge University, had read materials on social media warning of the dangers of vaccination.

She added that “It was a daily thing that he said to us: ‘You don’t need to have it [the vaccine], you’ll be fine, just be careful.’

“He said to me: ‘It’s a gene thing, an experimental thing. You’re putting something in your body that hasn’t been thoroughly tested’.

“Les was highly educated… so if he told me something, I tended to believe it.”

The “Squad” targets Yerushalayim

 


Move over, Ben & Jerry’s. Now the congresswomen known as “The Squad” have launched a new attack on Israel—and, just like the ice cream maker, one of their prime targets is Jerusalem.

The dirty little secret of the Ben & Jerry’s assault is that it is aimed not just at “settlements” but at Israel’s capital, Jerusalem. The ice cream company’s use of the vague term “Occupied Palestinian Territory” is a deliberate attempt to hide the unpopular fact that their boycott extends to the Western Wall.

Now “The Squad” is taking aim at the Wall, too—only they are being much more open about it.

In a letter to Secretary of the Treasury Janet Yellen this week, four self-described “Squad” members, together with three other Democrats, called for revoking the tax-exempt status of American charities that send funds to projects in “Occupied Palestinian Territory.”

Disturbing video shows woman casually shoot victim dead on crowded NYC street

 



Shocking video obtained by The Post shows the moment a woman with a gun walked up to another woman and shot her dead on a crowded Prospect Heights street Tuesday – before casually strolling away.

The video shows a shooter wearing a purse walk up to 42-year-old Delia Johnson and shoot the unsuspecting victim in the head while she was having a conversation with some people sitting on the stoop of a building on Franklin Avenue near Prospect Place.

The shooting happened at about 9:40 p.m., police sources said.

After the victim drops to the ground, the shooter fires off several more shots, the video shows. As nearby crowds duck for cover and run, the shooter nonchalantly walks away and gets into a white SUV that’s double parked on the street with its hazard lights flashing.

Johnson was found unconscious and unresponsive afterwards, and she was pronounced dead after being taken to Interfaith Hospital, cops said.
