28 People Already Shot to Death in Chicago in January Yet they Vote for a Ceasefire in Gaza!

 The Chicago City Council has passed a totally pointless resolution urging a ceasefire in Gaza, marking it as the most substantial municipal body in the United States to advocate for such action.

The decision came after a closely contested vote that concluded with a tie of 23 in favor and 23 against. This deadlock prompted Democratic Mayor Brandon Johnson to step in and cast the decisive vote in support of the resolution, although it remains entirely symbolic in nature.

The announcement of the vote’s outcome was met with applause in the council chamber. This event highlighted the culmination of months of debate and a particularly heated council meeting that saw the removal of spectators from the premises.

Jake Sheridan, the reporter who documented the event on social media, noted, “Chicago becomes the largest American city to call for a Gaza cease-fire after a monthslong debate [and] a tense meeting where spectators were cleared out.” He also remarked on the resolution’s significance for local pro-Palestine organizations and progressive members of the council, calling it a “huge win.”

Around 70 U.S. cities have adopted resolutions concerning the Israel-Gaza conflict, the majority of which call for a ceasefire.

It’s worth noting that Chicago has already experienced a staggering 28 people shot to death in 2024 – that’s nearly 1 dead person each day. In 2023, there were 2,883 shooting victims in Chicago, resulting in the murder of 671 people, or about 2 every day. In other words, the inept Chicago Council ignored their own war zone and instead is focusing on trying to solve another.

Below is a recap of the shooting Chicago saw just this past weekend (via CBS News):

Biden & Blinken Reward Hamas Atrocities With a Palestinian State

 

 U.S. President Joe Biden is harming Israel’s efforts to demilitarize the Gaza Strip by demanding that Jerusalem scale back its military offensive against the Hamas terror organization, former U.S. Ambassador to Israel David Friedman told Channel 12 on Monday.

Biden is “to some extent hampering the war effort by this desire to force Israel to engage in I think what he refers to as ‘low-intensity combat’… That’s sort of the kind of messaging that America has been giving Israel,” Friedman said in an interview with Channel 12‘s Yonit Levi.

“I think he has really made some inappropriate comments. He spoke about the indiscriminate bombing that Israel engaged in, which I think is an outright lie. I think that he speaks continuously about this need to impose a two-state solution, which I think is tone-deaf right now,” the former envoy continued.

In an Oct. 12 post on X, Friedman had stated he was “deeply grateful” for Biden’s support in the aftermath of Hamas’s brutal massacre of 1,200 people, mostly civilians, in Israel’s northwestern Negev region.

“In Judaism there is an obligation of ‘Hakarat Hatov’—saying thank you to those who perform good deeds. While I have been, and remain, deeply critical of the Biden Administration, the moral, tactical, diplomatic and military support that it has provided Israel over the past few days has been exceptional,” he tweeted at the time.

“I feel less that way now, and I was concerned then that the president’s commitment would fade as Biden tries to balance his various political interests,” Friedman told Channel 12 on Monday.

Friedman served for four years under the Trump administration, which delivered a number of moves hailed by Israel and its supporters, including pulling out of the 2015 ‎nuclear deal with Iran.

'The flood will wash them away': IDF's message to Hamas in viral image

 

A photo published on social media on Wednesday went viral after it showed suspects arrested by the IDF in Khan Yunis handcuffed and blindfolded. Behind them are the flags of Israel and the Givati Brigade, as well as a massive sign with a quote-turned-pun from the Quran.

The quote in question is taken from a sura in the Quran relating to the biblical flood: “…and the flood washed away their sins." This is a clear allusion to the name Hamas gave to the October 7 attack – “Al-Aqsa flood.”

The message is clear: The action backfired on its perpetrators, who are now paying for their sins.

CAIR Leader Who Backed Hamas’ October 7 Terror Attack Demands UNRWA Funding Be Restored

 

Nihad Awad, the executive director of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) and a supporter of Hamas’s October 7 terror attack, demanded Monday that the U.S. restore funding to the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA).

Last week, the Biden administration suspended funding to UNRWA after it was revealed that at least a dozen of its employees had participated in the October 7 terror attack. Biden had previously restored $700 million to UNRWA that President Donald Trump had cut because of concerns about UNRWA’s role in supporting terrorism and indoctrinating Palestinian children to hate Israel.

As Breitbart News reported, citing the Middle East Media Research Institute (MEMRI), Awad celebrated the October 7 attacks in a speech to a Muslim group shortly after the event, claiming he was “happy” and that Israel did not have a right of self-defense.

Remember When Obama Asked Iran "nicely" to Return US Drone?

 

12 Years Ago!!!! They still have it!

US president Barack Obama says his government has requested that Tehran return a RQ-170 Sentinel surveillance drone captured by Iran’s military Reuters

The US has asked Iran to return a surveillance drone downed earlier this month, Barack Obama disclosed on Monday.

Obama was asked about the missing drone during a joint press conference with the Iraqi president Nouri al-Maliki to mark the withdrawal of troops from Iraq by the end of the month.

“We have asked for it back. We’ll see how the Iranians respond,” Obama said but ended with a smirk, an acknowledgement that Iranian co-operation was highly unlikely.

It is the first time that the US has formally acknowledged that Iran has the drone.

Obama declined to answer a question about whether US national security had been undermined by the loss of the drone to Iran. “With respect to the drone inside of Iran, I’m not going to comment on intelligence matters that are classified,” he said.

Tehran said on Sunday it had reverse engineered the drone in order to extract important technical information about how it is put together.
