Bomb kills 6, wounds 13 at Pakistan pro-Palestinian rally

 A bomb exploded at a pro-Palestinian rally in southwest Pakistan on Friday, killing six and injuring 13, reported Reuters.

Those wounded included Maulana Abdul Qadir Uni, a cleric who leads a conservative religious party which has supported the Taliban.

The motorcycle bomb blew up as those in attendance were leaving the rally, which took place in Chaman, a city in the province of Balochistan near the Afghan border.

The province is unstable, with an insurgency by nationalists as well as Islamist militants with ties to the Taliban and ISIS.

Obama a 'parasite' who sucked the Democratic Party dry to get re-elected and believed that he would have beaten Trump, new book claims

 Barack Obama was a 'parasite' on the Democrat party who sucked it dry for his reelection and left it saddled with debt, a new book claims.

The former President used the party structure as a 'host' for his 2012 campaign for a second term then treated it like a 'husk' to be discarded with $2.4million in debt.

Obama's aloof demeanor and professorial detachment masked the reality that he was full of 'self-assured self-regard.'

He oversaw the 'pilfering of talent, money, resources, and purpose' away from the Democratic National Committee to his own reelection team.

After eight years under Obama, the Democrats suffered a net loss of 947 state legislative seats, 63 House seats, 11 senators, and 13 governors - but Obama refused to take the blame.

In Battle for the Soul: Inside the Democrats' Campaigns to Defeat Trump, Edward-Isaac Dovere argues that Obama was guilty of 'negligence' with his own party.

In a scathing portrait, Dovere, a journalist with The Atlantic, claims that Obama was so arrogant he believed that if he could have run in 2016 for a third term he could have beaten Trump.

Pollster Frank Luntz's research is a 'total schtick and scam' that relies on manipulated focus groups

 

Former employees of the influential Republican anti-Trumper pollster and strategist Frank Luntz say that his methods are a 'scam', according to a new report.

Three former Luntz employees, including Chris Ingram, a former senior vice president at the Luntz Research Company, spoke out about the pollster's practices in interviews with Salon.

Ingram, who worked for Luntz from 1997 through the early 2000s, said that Luntz's claim to deliver objective data is a 'total shtick and a scam' and called his methods 'quite frankly bulls**t.'

Luntz did not immediately respond to a request for comment from DailyMail.com on Saturday.

Luntz is an influential GOP pollster and strategist, as well as close friend and roommate of House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy.

Though he runs a Republican polling and communications company, in January declared that he no longer felt able to call himself a Republican. 

In recent days, his focus group work has been featured on The Daily Show and the New York Times opinion section, and he makes regular appearances on MSNBC.

'The clowns at MSNBC didn't have a clue about how the focus groups or panels worked, or what Frank what was doing,' Ingram told Salon.

'The actions were basically contrived: He screened out anybody that isn't going to give the viewers the opinion that Frank, on behalf of his client, is looking for. Somehow, he is able to bulls**t people,' he added.

Ingram said that Luntz tried to manipulate his focus groups using 'dial testing,' in which participants turn knobs on a dial to indicate their reactions in real time. 

'Frank, when he would be hired by clients, whether they would be corporate or political, would sit in that room yelling, 'Keep turning the dials! Keep turning the dials!'' Ingram said. 

He said that Luntz was mainly concerned with results that would yield more 'compelling' data for the client, rather than accuracy.

Two other former Luntz employees told Salon similar stories on the condition that they not be named. One called Luntz a 'slimeball' and remarked on his lavish lifestyle.

Another said that negative experiences working with Luntz were 'widespread' in Washington DC.

Luntz was recently the target of withering attacks earlier this month from Fox News host Tucker Carlson, who accused him of lobbying on behalf of 'liberal' causes. 

Carlson said senior Republicans were disconnected from their supporters partly because they listen to 'conventional liberals' like Luntz, whom he accused of serving 'left-wing corporations'. 

The commentator said that Luntz, who is not a registered lobbyist, 'lobbies on behalf of the world's most left-wing companies,' citing Google, Nike and Delta airlines. 

'In real life, his views bear no resemblance whatsoever to the views of actual Republican voters,' said Carlson.

'So the question is - how did someone like this wind up with so much influence in the Republican Party? Why do they listen to someone like Frank Luntz, rather than their own voters?'

He then played a clip of an interview with Luntz in which the pollster says that Trump supporters are in favor of providing a ‘path to citizenship’ to so-called DREAM-ers.

Carlson accused Luntz of taking the same position on immigration as that of Google, and that his views were applauded by ‘open borders activists.’

In a follow-up segment, Carlson revealed that McCarthy is renting out space in Luntz's luxury 12-bedroom penthouse in DC.

McCarthy's arrangement in Washington appears unusual, but his spokesman said he paid the going rate, to avoid conflict-of-interest charges. 

Carlson ripped the arrangement, saying: 'The top Republican in the House lives with a Google lobbyist? Come on. 

'Even by the sleazy and corrupt standards of politics in Washington, that didn't seem possible. In fact, it sounded like a joke.'

NOW she's sorry!: AOC 'condemns violence' after stirring up controversy days ago with anti-Semitic social posts

 

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has spoken out to condemn violent attacks on Jews in the streets of America, days after she was accused of anti-Semitism for branding Israel an 'apartheid state'.

'We will never, ever tolerate antisemitism here in NY or anywhere in the world. The recent surge in attacks is horrifying. We stand with our Jewish communities in condemning this violence,' tweeted Ocasio-Cortez on Friday.

She spoke after a fragile cease-fire was declared between Israel and Palestinian militant groups in the Gaza strip, following an 11-day conflict that left more than 250 dead, the vast majority of them Palestinians.

Last Saturday, Ocasio-Cortez drew criticism from some quarters after she and her 'Squad' of left-wing House Democrats tweeted in apparent reference to Israel: 'Apartheid states are not democracies.'

'I have defended you often from Republican attacks. However, shame on you,' tweeted Fred Guttenberg, the gun-control activist and father of a student killed in the Parkland school massacre.

'You are wrong and either showing a lack of understanding or something more intentional veering on anti Semitism,' he added in response to Ocasio-Cortez's 'apartheid' tweet.'

The New York Congresswoman's remarks condemning violence follow a disturbing increase in street violence targeting US-based Jews in recent days.

Blacks and Latinos constitute 90% of arrests for anti-Asian hate crimes in NYC: study

 

California State University San Bernardino’s Center for the Study of Hate & Extremism left out some pertinent details from its latest report on anti-Asian hate crimes: namely, the race and ethnicity of arrested individuals.

The College Fix got the missing data from the director of the center, Brian Levin. 

Ninety percent of those arrested in New York City, the main driver of a national increase, are black or Latino. They are actually overrepresented in anti-Asian hate crime reports compared to general crime reports (80%) in New York City.

The study’s figures compare the first quarter of 2021 with the first quarter of 2020. 

The center leaves out race and ethnicity data from its national report “unless we can replicate” the data sets it receives, he told The College Fix.

Anti-Asian hate crime reports jumped more than 200% between the two periods in New York City, and 164% nationally (though that’s only 95 reports in the first quarter of 2021 across the 16 cities and regions studied).

They are: New York City, Los Angeles, Phoenix, Philadelphia, San Antonio, San Diego, San Francisco, Seattle, Washington D.C., Boston, Louisville, Miami, Tampa, and Cleveland, plus St. Paul, Minnesota, and Harris County, Texas, which includes Houston.

Brooklyn Principal Implored Staff to Support Palestinians Murderers

 

A Brooklyn middle school principal this week urged teachers and administrators to demand government sanctions against Israel — sparking outrage and a pending probe by the school system’s independent investigator, The Post has learned.

In an email sent amid the since-suspended fighting between Israel and Hamas terrorists, Principal Amanda Bueno told staffers at MS 136, “If you have been watching the news in absolute horror, you are not alone.”

“You can take action today by protesting, attending a vigil, making a public commitment to Palestinian Liberation, signing a petition, or calling your government officials to place sanctions on Isreal (sic),” she wrote Wednesday morning. 

“The time is now to take a stand for those impacted by state-sanctioned violence and crimes against the humanity of the most vulnerable in our world.”

Bueno — who titled the email, “Day of Action in Solidarity with The Palestinian Uprising & General Strike” — also included a list of links.

One led to the “Teach Palestine” website and another to a May 10 article about US Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.) tweeting against the Israeli raid on the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound in Jerusalem that sparked the recent round of Hamas rocket attacks.

An MS 136 teacher, who is Jewish, told The Post, “I opened the email and I was in shock. I felt very targeted and very attacked by her words.”

“These resources she provided, it’s propaganda,” the teacher added.

“There was nothing in the email about Hamas rockets targeting innocent Israeli civilians.”

Lawyer Inna Vernikov — a former staffer for then-Assemblyman Dov Hikind (D-Brooklyn), an outspoken supporter of Israel — also sent a letter to the DOE calling for Bueno to be reprimanded.

“New York law forbids requesting or encouraging any public servant, city employee, or subordinate public servant/employee to engage in political activities,” she wrote.

Vernikov, the Republican candidate running to succeed crooked ex-City Councilman Chaim Deutsch (D-Brooklyn) said she knew MS 136 teachers with “close family members who live in Israel.”

But she said the educators “are intimidated and afraid to speak out to counter such messages in fear of losing their jobs.”

Outside the school in Sunset Park, several parents uniformly criticized Bueno’s email when told about it.

“Wrong, wrong, wrong,” said one man who was there to pick up his son.

“Stay in the middle. You are saying, ‘Support this group and not the other.’ That’s wrong.”

A man who gave his name as Edward and said his son was a sixth-grader, said, “I don’t take sides. As a principal, I don’t think she should.”

A man who was picking up his daughter also said, “She should remain neutral because in New York, you have so many different groups of people.”

A spokesman for the Department of Education said, “The matter is being addressed internally and was referred to [the special commissioner of investigation] for further investigation.”

“Schools are not public forums for purposes of political expression, and staff may not use DOE resources in the furtherance of personal or political activities,” spokesman Nathaniel Steyer noted.

Bueno didn’t immediately return an email seeking comment and she couldn’t be reached at two phone numbers listed in her name.

Her union, the Council of School Supervisors and Administrators, didn’t immediately return requests for comment.

Meet Black Puerto Rican TV Star Erica Mena Vicious Jew Hater

 

By

 David Israel

Erica Mena, an American television personality best known for her appearances on Love & Hip Hop: New York, a fact that makes me sad because I never watched it so I am deprived of the privilege of boycotting it. Why? Because the half Puerto Rican, half Dominican former “video vixen” hates Jews. With a passion. And she shares it with Twitter, the social network that banned President Donald Trump.

I opted not to share with you the live Tweets because Erica Mena’s profile image is not suitable for a family newspaper. My apologies to John-Paul Pagano who shared them, sorry I can’t give you the traffic.

Here goes, tweet no. 1 from this influencer, May 16, 2021, at 11:56 PM:

“I’m so disgusted with Israel. These Jewish people are really killing children and stealing from these innocent people. A real special place in hell for them all. #FreePalestine.”

And tweet no. 2, next day, May 17, 2021, at 2:46 PM:

“I stand with (Palestinian flag emoji)! I don’t care what anyone has to say. If you think it’s okay to kill young innocent children and remove people from their homes, you can go to hell along with the devils of Israel that are taking part in a genocide right now as we speak.”

As in the case of so many celebrities, you have to wonder what came first, the anti-Semitism or the event that drove them to spill it out.

Stay cool and avoid Arab mobs on the street. Apparently, there’s Palestinian wilding going around.

Drone Downed Tuesday was Iranian, and Armed

 

An unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) that was shot down by the IDF early Tuesday morning has now been revealed to have been produced by Iran.

The aircraft was being monitored by its air control units; the IDF collected the debris from the drone after it was intercepted near Israel’s border with Jordan.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu showed German Foreign Minister Heiko Maas the remains of the armed Iranian UAV. 

It is still not clear whether the drone was launched at Israel from Iraq, or from Syria.

“While we were engaged in these hostilities a few days ago, Iran sent an armed drone from Iraq or from Syria,” Netanyahu said.
Iranian forces launched an armed drone, which our forces intercepted on the border between Israel and Jordan. 

“I think that says everything about the true patron of terror in the Middle East and in the world,” the prime minister told the reporters at a joint news briefing with the German foreign minister. “Iran.”

German Foreign Minister Tours Rocket-Ravaged Homes
Israeli officials also took Maas on a tour of the some of the damaged Israeli residential buildings that were struck by Hamas rockets. 

“We appreciate the international support for our right to defend ourselves from terrorists who fire thousands of rockets, trying to kill as many people as possible,” Maas was told.

Hamas has fired more than 4,000 rockets and mortars at Israeli civilians in the south and center of the country since a week ago, when the terror group launched seven rockets at Jerusalem and surrounding communities on Jerusalem Day – igniting the current military campaign by Israel, “Operation Guardian of the Walls”.

AOC The NY Witch Bullies pro-Israel Dems into Silence

 

Jewish activists accused powerful Democrats in the New York congressional delegation of cowering to Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and other leftist House members of the “Squad” by failing to forcefully stand up for Israel during its fight with Hamas in the Gaza strip.

“Chuck Schumer? Who?,” a frustrated Michael Nussbaum, president of the Queens Council of Jewish Organizations, said sarcastically of the powerful Senate majority leader who represents New York.

“I’m surprised and disappointed. Members of the New York congressional delegation who have a lot of sway have not spoken out forcefully to defend Israel, and they have not denounced AOC or corrected her,” said Nussbaum.

Ocasio-Cortez and other Squad members including Reps. Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.) and Ilham Omar (D-Minn.) and Ayanna Pressley (D-Mass.) introduced a resolution Wednesday to halt the President Biden-approved sale of $735 million in weapons to Israel.

“At a time when so many, including President Biden, support a ceasefire, we should not be sending ‘direct attack’ weaponry to Prime Minister Netanyahu to prolong this violence,” AOC said of Israel’s prime minister in a statement.

Amid the destruction and lives killed, Ocasio-Cortez, in a tweet clearly aimed at Israel, said, “Apartheid states are not democracies.”

Nussbaum and other activists are seething that the New York pols who claim to be pro-Israel have been quiet and meek, giving Israel critics like AOC a leg up in the war of public opinion.

Blabbermouth Schumer Is Suddenly Missing in Action Regarding Israel

 

Axios: 

So far, Schumer has largely been silent even as other historically fierce defenders of Israel, such as Sen. Bob Menendez (D-N.J.), have spoken up.

Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer’s longtime support for Israel puts him on a collision course with the progressive wing of his party as the conflict between Israel and Hamas worsens.

Why it matters: This is the toughest political position the New York Democrat has been in since becoming majority leader. The fighting in the Middle East is dividing his party — and creating a clear rift among its different wings.

• Deepening the challenge: Schumer is up for re-election next year and one of his potential opponents — Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) — is one of the most vocal progressive critics of the actions taken by Israel’s leader, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
• While President Biden and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi are similarly boxed in after ascending to power in a pro-Israel environment, Schumer faces this problem most acutely.

The backdrop: Schumer, the first Jewish Senate majority leader, rose to prominence in part thanks to a career in New York politics built on a foundation of pro-Israel credentials.

• He frequently bucked President Obama on Middle East policy, including opposing the 2015 Iran nuclear deal.
• That put him at odds with the majority of his party but aligned him with Israel. He later criticized President Trump for leaving the deal and said a new agreement should be negotiated.
• In 2019, Schumer delivered a speech at an American Israel Public Affairs Committee meeting in which he said: “You can be, all at once, completely Jewish, completely pro-Israel and completely American.”
• It was a poke at another Squad member — Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) — who had leveled sharp criticisms against supporters of Israel.

Swedish Authorities Investigate Mohel for not using Anesthesia

 

Health Ministry officials in Sweden have launched a review into the actions of a rabbi and physician for circumcising Jewish infants without anesthesia.

Separately, the parliament in neighboring Denmark on Tuesday voted against a nonbinding draft motion calling on the government to ban the nonmedical circumcision of boys.

The review in Sweden of Rabbi Dr. Peter Borenstein followed articles in Svenska Dagbladet in which other doctors criticized him for not administering anesthesia. Borenstein also is a longtime mohel, the Hebrew word for one who performs ritual circumcisions.

Mohels typically do not use anesthetic. Many, including Borenstein, offer the babies a few drops of a sugar-rich liquid as a distraction. The daily called this “sugarwater painkiller.”

The Swedish Health and Care Inspectorate said it deems Borenstein’s performance “inadequate” and has demanded an explanation by May 28, the news site Lakartidningen on Wednesday reported.

In Sweden, the law allows nonmedical circumcision of boys but requires the presence of licensed medical personnel. Therefore, mohels in Sweden tend to be physicians as well.

Svenska Dagbladet implied that Borenstein was in violation of medical procedures and ethics, which he and the Council of Swedish Jewish Communities have denied.

Circumcision is controversial in Scandinavia, where child welfare activists say it’s a form of abuse. Far-right activists also oppose the practice as a foreign import.

In Denmark, the motion calling for a ban was defeated in a 62-32 vote. Anti-circumcision activists had gathered more than the necessary 50,000 signatures on a 2018 petition needed to submit the measure for a parliamentary vote.

Gafni Orthodox party leader backs official state inquiry into Meron disaster

 

The head of the ultra-Orthodox United Torah Judaism party on Wednesday threw his backing behind the establishment of a state commission of inquiry into the deadly crush at a religious festival last month that killed 45 people, including many children.

No arrests have been made since the April 30 tragedy, the deadliest civilian disaster in Israel’s history, which is being investigated by the Israel Police.

UTJ MK Moshe Gafni chairs the Knesset Finance Committee, which held a session Tuesday on the disaster during Lag B’Omer celebrations at Mount Meron in northern Israel. In a letter to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, he said the parliamentary committee agreed the “correct way” to proceed is to form an official commission of inquiry, which would be led by a Supreme Court justice.

Gafni also said he would chair further committee meetings on the matter “so we can offer solutions for the future so a case like this will not happen again.”

The last living WWII-era German Nazis have shockingly few regrets

 

Klaus Kleinau is one of the surviving remorseful members of the Waffen-SS.

The last remaining World War II Nazis are living comfortably at home in Germany, leading normal lives and, in some instances, are still proud of their participation in one of world history’s biggest atrocities.

In the chilling new documentary “Final Account,” out Friday, British director Luke Holland, whose grandparents were killed in the Holocaust, interviewed several former Nazis about their memories of the murderous Third Reich. It took him 10 years to track his elderly subjects down and capture them on film. And Holland himself died in June shortly after completing his movie.

Deemed functionaries rather than war criminals by the German government, these former medics, SS officers and concentration camp guards were able to return to their communities after World War II as if nothing had happened.

For many of them, “nothing” is the operative word today.

“The majority of those under Naziism said after the war, again and again, firstly ‘I didn’t know,’ secondly ‘I didn’t take part,’ and thirdly, ‘If I had known, I would have acted differently,’ ” Klaus Kleinau, a remorseful member of the Waffen-SS, the military branch of the SS, said in the doc. 

Kleinau believes this to be a widespread delusion. “Everybody tries to distance themselves from the massacres committed under Naziism, especially those of the final years. And that’s why so many said: ‘I wasn’t a Nazi.’ ”

The interviewees mostly began their participation with the Nazis when they joined the Jungvolk, a mandatory program for boys between the ages of 10 and 14. After that, they advanced to Hitler Youth or the female equivalent, the League of German Girls. 

A few recalled being excited to attend the camp as children.

“This is my Hitler Youth membership card,” said Hans Werk, who eventually became part of the Waffen-SS. “I joined the Jungvolk at the age of 10 and received this. I joined on the 1st of May 1937. Even before I was 10 years old. I couldn’t wait.” Werk later expressed deep and sincere regret about his wartime actions.

An unnamed woman added: “We didn’t support the party. But we liked the uniform. We went along with it, because we enjoyed it — putting on the uniform and going on marches.”

But the innocence was a ruse. From a young age, they were being taught to hate.

“We learned to read with the normal alphabet book, but we also had a Jew-themed alphabet book,” Werk said. “It had a caricature of a Jew for each letter. I remember one in particular: a butcher’s shop that was really greasy and filthy. A disgusting Jew with dirty long hair and a hat, behind the counter. Next to him, a blond German girl with a white apron. He had his hand where it shouldn’t be.”

Although many subjects expressed shame for their role in the Holocaust, others have no regrets at all. When one anonymous man remembered calling guards from the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp to bring back escaped Jewish prisoners who were hiding in his farm’s pigsty, he laughed.

Asked if he still “honors” Adolf Hitler, Karl Hollander, a former SS lieutenant who kept his swastika badges, said, “I still do. The idea was correct … I don’t share the opinion that they should be murdered. They should have been driven out to another country where they could rule themselves. This would have saved a great deal of grief.”

Kurt Sametreiter of the SS also stood his ground.

“The Waffen-SS had nothing to do with the terrible and brutal treatment of Jews and dissidents and the concentration camp,” said Sametreiter. “We were front-line soldiers … I have no regrets, and I will never regret being with that unit. Truly not. A camaraderie like that … You could rely on every man 100%. There was nothing that could go wrong. That was the beauty of it.” 

When asked if 6 million Jews were killed during the Holocaust, Sametreiter denied it. 

“That’s a joke,” he said. “I don’t believe it. I will not believe it. It can’t be. Today they say. Excuse me, but it’s the Jew who puts it like that. The scale that is claimed today, I deny that, too. I deny it. It didn’t happen.”
