Hamas condemns ISIS for Russia massacre! This is NOT a Purim Joke!
“We condemn in the strongest terms the terrorist attack that targeted civilians in Moscow, killing dozens of people and wounding them,” the Palestinian terror group said in a statement Saturday.
At least 133 people were killed and more than a hundred others wounded when gunmen opened fire on a concert hall outside of Moscow Friday in an attack claimed by the Islamic State’s affiliate in Afghanistan, known as ISIS-Khorasan or ISIS-K.
Hamas, which remains in an ongoing war with Israel since its own brutal attack killed more than 1,200 people on Oct. 7, offered solace to the “leadership and the Russian people, and to the families of the victims of this criminal attack.”
The denunciation of violence by Hamas was ridiculed online, where some observers blasted the “audacity” of the militant group, which sees ISIS as a rival.
“What a joke,” one user wrote on X.
Biden and Schumer’s pivot away from Israel is already backfiring
The trouble with living in a bifurcated political culture isn’t just that everyone seems to be living in an ideological bubble. We’ve seen how this coarsens and embitters public discourse. But in the last week, it’s now clear that this isn’t just something that impacts the way ordinary citizens interact with each other. It’s also leading politicians to make some terrible decisions.
That’s the best way to understand how President Joe Biden and Senate Majority Leader Charles Schumer walked into a political trap of their own making when they decided to attack Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

Ben Shapiro’s Daily Wire cuts ties with Candace Owens following Israel-Hamas comments
Candace Owens will no longer appear on Ben Shapiro’s conservative news website The Daily Wire, it was announced on Friday (22 March).
Controversial author Owens joined the media company in 2021 before falling out with co-founder Shapiro last year over her views on the Israel-Hamas war
“Daily Wire and Candace Owens have ended their relationship,” Daily Wire co-founder Jeremy Boreing tweeted on Friday morning.
“The rumors are true—I am finally free,” Owens shared on her own X account.
Representatives for The Daily Wire and Owens did not immediately respond to The Independent’s requests for additional comment.
The United States Abandoning Israel in the United Nations
The United States is preparing to abandon Israel in the United Nations with a draft resolution that calls for release of hostages dragged into Gaza by Hamas terrorists on October 7 — but also calls for an immediate ceasefire between Israel and the terrorist organization.
Not a temporary ceasefire during which increased humanitarian aid would be “surged” to the enclave, and during which hostages would be freed.
Blinken announced Wednesday that the United States has submitted a draft resolution to the UN Security Council calling for “an immediate ceasefire linked to the release of hostages” in the Gaza Strip, according to a report by the Saudi Al-Hadaath news outlet.
“We’re pressing for an immediate ceasefire tied to the release of hostages,” said Blinken, who was in Jeddah for meetings with Saudi Arabia’s foreign minister and other officials.
“We actually have a resolution that we put forward right now that’s before the United Nations Security Council that does call for an immediate ceasefire tied to the release of hostages, and we hope very much that countries will support that,” Blinken said. “I think that would send a strong message, a strong signal.”
Such a message does indeed send a “strong message” that the US no longer “has Israel’s back” in the United Nations, despite all declarations of America’s “unbreakable bond” with the Jewish State.
