'Throw those bums out' : Ambassador Friedman to Trump

 

Former US Ambassador to Israel David Friedman responded to former US President Donald Trump's meeting with white nationalist Nick Fuentes and rapper Kanye West.

Fuentes and West were seen dining with Trump at Mar-a-Lago.

"To my friend Donald Trump, you are better than this," Friedman wrote. "Even a social visit from an antisemite like Kanye West and human scum like Nick Fuentes is unacceptable. I urge you to throw those bums out, disavow them and relegate them to the dustbin of history where they belong."

"I condemned Barak Obama associating with Louis Farrakhan and Jeremiah Wright." the former Ambassador added. "This is no different. Antisemites deserve no quarter among American leaders, right or left."

Tehran Jewish community swould rather side with regime amid Iran protests than make Aliyah

 

The small Jewish community in Tehran on Thursday condemned the ongoing anti-regime protests in Iran, which broke out over the death of a young woman held for allegedly violating the Islamic Republic’s strict dress code.

In a letter, the Tehran Central Jewish Committee said it was standing by the Iranian regime amid a deadly crackdown on protesters.

“This is a condemnation of the recent unrest in the country that led to the death and injury of several people in our country, as well as many financial losses to the country,” the letter said.

“The community declares that it has always obeyed the position of the supreme leader,” it added.

Prominent figures in the Jewish community of Iran intermittently issue anti-Israel statements that match the regime’s agenda. Iran is openly sworn to Israel’s destruction and financially supports terrorist groups, like Hezbollah and Hamas, that are also committed to this aim.

Since the death of Mahsa Amini while in the custody of the morality police in Tehran in September, the protests have spread across the country. Authorities have responded with a crackdown that Oslo-based group Iran Human Rights says has left around 400 people dead, half a dozen sentenced to death, and more than 15,000 arrested.

“The community declares that the enemies of the system are creating insecurity by targeting the unity of the people. In recent days, unfortunate events and incidents have occurred in our beloved country, which has hurt the hearts of those loyal to Iran and the holy Islamic system,” the letter said.

“The community asks all members of our dear country to avoid polarizing the country and to discuss things. We hope that in the near future we will see unity, peace, security, and happiness in our beloved country,” it added.

In September, during the first weeks of the protests, the committee issued a letter warning members to avoid synagogues during the violence.

Prior to the Islamic Revolution in 1979, there were some 100,000 Jews in Iran; by 2016, according to an Iranian census, that number had fallen to below 10,000.

The Jewish community in Iran has previously taken other precautionary measures to protect members, with the country’s chief rabbi saying last year that he condemned the US killing of top Iranian Gen. Qassem Soleimani in 2020 amid fears Jews could be physically attacked by some Muslim neighbors.

Amini, a 22-year-old of Kurdish origin, died on September 16, three days after her arrest in Tehran by the notorious morality police for allegedly breaching the Islamic dress code for women.

The rallies have been led by young women who burned their headscarves and confronted security forces in the biggest wave of unrest to rock Iran for years.

In October, the United States placed over a dozen Iranian officials on its sanctions blacklist for the crackdown on the protests.

A "they,them Nonbinary" Murders Gays and the DemonRat Hypocrites Blame Conservatives

the "they-them" murderer with his mom 

 For three days after the Colorado gay nightclub massacre Democrats and their media allies smeared conservative opponents of drag queen groomer hour as “stochastic terrorists” who are to blame for the tragedy. 

Then, to their chagrin on Tuesday, the suspect’s lawyers filed court papers saying he identifies as nonbinary and uses the pronouns “they, them.” 

Suddenly their right-wing homophobia narrative collapsed in a heap. Not that it caused them any self-reflection. They will just wait for the next opportunity to weaponize a tragedy. 

Of course, for all their emoting, they never had any genuine concern for the five Colorado victims, who were just weapons to wield against their most effective opponents on the right. 

Just as the left transformed George Floyd’s death under the knee of a white cop into a race civil war that won them votes in the 2020 election, they planned to turn the Club Q massacre into a new culture war. They are panicking because Elon Musk has dismantled the left-wing censorship regime on Twitter that propped up so many of their dishonest narratives, so their aim is to justify a new round of censorship by pretending conservatives are provoking anti-LGBTQ violence. 

There is no tragedy they will not exploit for political benefit. But their haste to judge has left them with egg on their face.

Murdered terror victim identified as Canadian yeshiva student


 The victim murdered in one of Wednesday’s two terrorist bombing attacks in Jerusalem has been identified as 15-year-old Aryeh Schupak.

Schupak, a resident of the Har Nof neighborhood in western Jerusalem, was a yeshiva student at the Beit Meir Yeshiva.

He was waiting for a bus to his yeshiva Wednesday morning when a bomb exploded next to the bus stop, fatally injuring Schupak.

According to a report by Kan, Schupak holds Canadian citizenship.

A total of 19 people were injured in two terrorist bombings in Jerusalem, with 12 victims treated after the first bombing, near the entrance to the city, and seven more after a second explosion was reported shortly afterwards at Ramot Junction.

Two of the victims, including Schupak, were rushed to the hospital in critical condition, with two others evacuated in serious condition.

After his arrival at the hospital, Schupak succumbed to his injuries.

Police believe both bombs, which were concealed in bags, were placed by a single terrorist, who remotely detonated the explosives.

The bags contained marbles and nails, increasing the amount of shrapnel produced in the explosions.

Expanding Jewish Settlements the Only Response to Arab Terrorism Says Goldknopf

 

United Torah Judaism Chairman MK Yitzhak Goldknopf on Saturday night came to the shiva of Tamir Avichai Hy’d, one of the three murdered Jews in last week’s terrorist attack near the Ariel industrial area in Samaria, and declared:

 “The expansion of Jewish settlements is the proper response to the murderous terrorism that seeks to push us out of the land of our forefathers,” Hidabrut reported.

While this statement is the norm when it comes to the national religious crowd, hearing this Zionist declaration from a senior Haredi leader such as Goldknopf is newsworthy. The Haredi movements have traditionally rejected political Zionism with Agudath Israel, Goldknopf’s party, leading this rejectionism. At the same time, since its inception, Agudah has been torn between its criticism, even fear, of the damages of secular Zionism, and its yearning to resettle Eretz Israel.

The Gur dynasty, which comprised the majority of Polish Hasidim before the war, has always been “a little Zionist,” and Gur Rebbes encouraged their followers to make Aliyah, which is why they continue to be the dominant Hasidic movement in Agudah today. Rabbi Avraham Mordechai Alter, the Imrei Emes, one of the founders of the Agudas Israel in Poland, was known as “a shtikle Zionist” (a little Zionist). Goldknopf hails from Gur.

“It breaks my heart to see the family of Tamir Hy’d, who was murdered by an evil-doer only because he was Jewish,” Goldknopf said at the shiva. “It is our duty as public representatives to act in every way to increase the security of our brethren in the settlement. As I stated during the election campaign, I will support any such initiative.”

How very different from the media’s depiction of Otzma Yehudit Chairman Bezalel Smotrich’s position as being in the minority on the right (If the Establishment Attacks Smotrich So Furiously, He Must Be Doing Something Right). Smotrich and Goldknopf met at the Knesset on Sunday and both registered their “displeasure” with the way Netanyahu has been conducting his coalition negotiations. Let it be known that while Shas leader Aryeh Deri is eager to do Bibi’s biddings, UTJ is no one’s errand boys.

Samaria Council Head Yossi Dagan was also at the shiva and presented Goldknopf with the security problems in the area. “We will not break, we will continue to build and plant,” said Dagan. “What needs to be done here is to restore the roadblocks and completely dismantle the terror infrastructure of the murderous Palestinian Authority. God willing, you will be the new government, and we trust you to bring about change here. It’s in your hands.”
