ERDOGAN LOOKS TO SOLIDIFY HIS POWER FURTHER

The UK Telegraph reports on Recep Erdogan's bid to change the would-be Turkish constitution further, to make himself an autocratic "president" rather than just a prime minister:
For the past year, he has been mired in controversy and corruption scandals. He is vilified by his closest neighbours. But Turkey's charismatic prime minister, Recep Tayyip Erdogan, is likely to sweep to a new victory in elections on Sunday that could cement his grip on the country's politics for the next decade.
And that's because, as many realize, the election is bound to be rigged. And shame on the writer for calling Erdogan "charismatic", because he's nothing but repulsive, and has proven it.
Mr Erdogan is predicted by opinion polls to win an outright majority in the first round of voting for a new president, a remarkable turnaround for a man many thought could not survive allegations featuring millions of dollars in shoeboxes, abuses of power by his businessman son, and tacit support for jihadists on the country's doorstep.
Oh, please. "Opinion polls"? It's more likely that, as mentioned, rigging will decide in his favor. Such can only be expected when Islamofascists in the making decide they want everything going their way.
Although the position till now has been more ceremonial than his own, he has pledged to turn the presidency into the country's real power base, meaning that he will be able to operate without the constraints of parliament or his party, the moderate Islamist Justice and Development Party, the AKP.
And that's exactly why he wants to change it all, much like what nazi Germany went through. But it's the parliament, not the party per se, he wants to obliterate, because the parliament is where the opposition really resides, so far. Then, here's some propaganda about Turkey's supposed prosperity in economy:
That popularity was built on economic growth and reforms that have turned Turkey into a regional powerhouse and which even some of his opponents respect. Provincial cities on the Anatolian plains, once impoverished Middle Eastern backwaters, now boast neat boulevards, shining tower blocks and decent housing for their middle and working class residents.
What economy? They don't seem to be doing any better than most European countries, and he's already been taking steps to ensure women won't do so well on their own.
It was a series of violent protests in Istanbul last summer that turned attention to the downside: that Mr Erdogan, a religious conservative who has frequently criticised Turkey's secular modern history, is a deeply polarising figure seen by the opposition as a new "Sultan", determined to rule by decree.
I'm not sure you can call a country that, long before he came along, was opposed to recognition of the Armenian Holocaust, "secular". In fact, that's probably what led to people like him rising up to turn the country back to the dark ages it was once mired in. And contrary to what the journalist must be thinking, those who feel Erdogan wants to be a self-appointed "sultan" are right. The sultan of Brunei is already proving how awful he is, and Erdogan is sparing no expense to reach that same goal. Unfortunately, none of this matters to UK propagandists like the one who wrote this piece for the Telegraph, one more reason why Erdogan is bound to reach his goal at such ease.

RABBI MURDERED IN MIAMI

Another possible anti-semitic shooting has taken place in the USA:
A rabbi, identified as Rabbi Joseph Raksin by NBC news, was shot and killed on his way to synagogue Saturday morning, in North Miami Beach.

He was shot by 2 youths at 9am, and airlifted to Jackson Memorial Hospital's Ryder Trauma Center, where he died.

The two fled, one on foot, and one on a bike.

A reader updated us that today's murder took place two blocks away from a Miami synagogue, which was vandalized with swastikas and the word "Hamas" last week.
The terrible thing about this is that, as in various other cases of this sort, the police are holding themselves hostage to political correctness:
Police do not yet have a good description of the shooters, and say there are no signs that this was a hate crime.
It occurs to me that the police don't want to examine the possibilities this could be a hate crime, so they give a predictable response they don't know the motive. That's only an attempt to avoid the harder queries, and it gives many authorities in the USA a poor image as incompetent.

THE ANCHORESS: OUR LACK OF FAITH MIGHT DOOM US IN A WAR AGAINST RADICAL BELIEVERS


The ANCHORESS:


Friends,

When I finished writing this I cried, because I know it's true:

The enemy we are about to engage may show the same viral strain as in the past, but the antibody of the West has shifted significantly since 1945, and may no longer be effective against it. Like the culture itself, it has evolved, and no longer contains one essential component necessary to fight the evil that instigates human savagery on this level, that of a faith; a language and method of engaging with the supernaturalism that lies beneath, and sustains a movement like IS.

Consider that when the Nazis were barreling through Europe, the majority of the western world professed – with no fear of ridicule or of giving insult, anywhere – a belief in something greater than itself. Franklin Delano Roosevelt, and Winston Churchill were conventionally religious men of their times, not overly prayerful. But they were imbued with enough faith to recognize that some occasions called for more than even the most sublime rhetoric; some things called for enough humility to make a prayer of supplication, one calling on the Deity to guide, to bless, to sustain – to, as Lincoln said, have “firmness in the right, as God gives us to see the right.”

Roosevelt led the nation in prayer on D-Day. In Britain, Churchill openly spoke of “a miracle of deliverance”: “A guiding hand interfered to make sure the allied forces were not annihilated at Dunkirk.”

Our post-Christian, post-faith western leadership is no longer capable of making public prayer, or willing to credit heaven with anything but twinkling stars. Former Prime Minister Tony Blair was told by his own government “we don’t do God” and the President Obama, who once defined the notion of “sin” as being “out of alignment with my values” would be very unlikely to attempt to lead a nation in prayer.

That will matter as we face IS.

ARE ISRAELIS LESS WORTHY OF PROTECTION FROM ISLAMIST SPONSORED GENOCIDE THAN THE YAZIDIS?

THE LEFT, THE UN, ERDOGAN AND THE ISLAMIST COLONISTS OF EUROPE WILL PROBABLY REMAIN SILENT AND IGNORE THE USA'S "BETTER LATE THAN NEVER" COUNTER-ATTACK ON ISIS/ISIL.

AND THIS PROVES, ONCE AGAIN, THAT THE ANTI-ISRAEL PROTESTS (PROTESTING ISRAEL'S SELF-DEFENSE AGAINST THE ISLAMISTS OF GAZA - HAMAS)- WERE NOTHING MORE THAN ANTISEMITIC BULLSHIT.

WILL THE WEST'S MASS MEDIA EMBED REPORTERS WITH ISIS/ISIL?
WILL THEY PARROT THEIR PROPAGANDA?
WILL THEY SAY OBAMA IS PERPETRATING A GENOCIDE ON ISIS/ISIL - ONE WORSE THAN HITLER'S?

NOPE.

PROVING THEY ARE ANTISEMITES AND HYPOCRITICAL PIECES OF SHIT.

HAMAS BREAKS THE ALLEGED CEASE-FIRE

There was never one to begin with, and it's clearly not happening now:
Israel resumed strikes on targets in Gaza in response to rocket fire from the area shortly after the expiration of a cease-fire between Israel and the terror group Hamas, Israeli military officials said Friday.

The move came after military officials said Gaza militants had fired a barrage of at least five rockets at southern Israel soon after a three-day truce between Israel and Hamas expired. The Israeli military said it responded with strikes "across Gaza."

At least one of the rockets fired from Gaza was intercepted by the Iron Dome system over the southern Israeli city of Ashkelon while two rockets fell in open areas without causing casualties or damage, The Associated Press reported.

Israel responded with a series of its own airstrikes, including one that killed a 10-year-old boy and wounded five children near a Gaza City mosque, Palestinian officials said. Two Israelis were wounded by rocket fire, police said.
It's worth noting that some of those deaths the PLO/Hamas talks about could've been faked as another propaganda weapon. The Jewish Press has more about that, as does Front Page Magazine.

It's clear as should be that Hamas is determined to attack Israel no matter what supposed agreement there ever was, and will not give up on their Koran-influenced mentality.

DERSHOWITZ: "Recent disclosures of Carter’s extensive financial connections to Arab oil money, particularly from Saudi Arabia, had deeply shaken my belief in his integrity."

ALAN DERSHOWITZ:
Recent disclosures of Carter’s extensive financial connections to Arab oil money, particularly from Saudi Arabia, had deeply shaken my belief in his integrity. When I was first told that he received a monetary reward in the name of Shiekh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahayan, and kept the money, even after Harvard returned money from the same source because of its anti-Semitic history, I simply did not believe it. How could a man of such apparent integrity enrich himself with dirty money from so dirty a source? 
And let there be no mistake about how dirty the Zayed Foundation is. I know because I was involved, in a small way, in helping to persuade Harvard University to return more than $2 million that the financially strapped Divinity School received from this source. 
Initially I was reluctant to put pressure on Harvard to turn back money for the Divinity School, but then a student at the Divinity School — Rachael Lea Fish — showed me the facts They were staggering. I was amazed that in the 21st century there were still foundations that espoused these views. The Zayed Centre for Coordination and Follow-up – a think-tank funded by the Shiekh and run by his son – hosted speakers who called Jews “the enemies of all nations,” attributed the assassination of John Kennedy to Israel and the Mossad and the 9/11 attacks to the United States’ own military, and stated that the Holocaust was a “fable.” (They also hosted a speech by Jimmy Carter.) To its credit, Harvard turned the money back. To his discredit, Carter did not. 
Jimmy Carter was, of course, aware of Harvard’s decision, since it was highly publicized. Yet he kept the money.  ... 
... The extent of Carter’s financial support from, and even dependence on, dirty money is still not fully known. What we do know is deeply troubling. Carter and his Center have accepted millions of dollars from suspect sources, beginning with the bail-out of the Carter family peanut business in the late 1970s by BCCI, a now-defunct and virulently anti-Israeli bank indirectly controlled by the Saudi Royal family, and among whose principal investors is Carter’s friend, Sheikh Zayed. Agha Hasan Abedi, the founder of the bank, gave Carter “$500,000 to help the former president establish his center…[and] more than $10 million to Mr. Carter’s different projects.” Carter gladly accepted the money, though Abedi had called his bank-ostensibly the source of his funding-”the best way to fight the evil influence of the Zionists.” 
BCCI isn’t the only source: Saudi King Fahd contributed millions to the Carter Center- “in 1993 alone…$7.6 million” as have other members of the Saudi Royal Family. Carter also received a million dollar pledge from the Saudi-based bin Laden family, as well as a personal $500,000 environmental award named for Sheikh Zayed, and paid for by the Prime Minister of the United Arab Emirates. 
It’s worth noting that, despite the influx of Saudi money funding the Carter Center, and despite the Saudi Arabian government’s myriad human rights abuses, the Carter Center’s Human Rights program has no activity whatever in Saudi Arabia. The Saudis have apparently bought his silence for a steep price.
READ THE WHOLE THING.

CARTER IS AN ANTISEMITIC PIECE OF SHIT BOUGHT AND PAID FOR BY THE SAUDIS.

I WONDER WHO OWNS OBAMA'S ASS?

PUTIN? IRAN? CHINA? THE HOUSE OF SAUD?



JUST WONDERING....

PROBABLY ALL OF THE ABOVE!

HE SURE DOESN'T DO WHAT IN OUR INTEREST, DOES HE!?!?

THE FIGHT TO STOP ISLAMOFASCISM HAS TO BE NOW

Geert Wilders wrote for Western Journalism about the dangers Islam is posing for Europe and Israel. At the beginning of this article, the editor notes:
In a generation or two, the US will ask itself: “Who lost Europe?”
Oh, that's correct. There's many reasons why no sensible person can turn their backs on Europe, not even countries where Islam gets the best privileges like Britain and Norway. And Wilders cites some of those reasons along the way in the article, such as:
[...] An Islamic Europe means a Europe without freedom and democracy, an economic wasteland, an intellectual nightmare, and a loss of military might for America – as its allies will turn into enemies, enemies with atomic bombs. With an Islamic Europe, it would be up to America alone to preserve the heritage of Rome, Athens, and Jerusalem.
By failing to address the jihad danger and letting it grow in Europe, this only ensures that one day, those with the means for defense will have to go to war again and this time it could be harder than ever because of all the jihadist neanderthals running amok.

And, worst of all, in another generation or two, if Europe becomes an Islamic wasteland, there's every chance they could build nuclear weapons on European soil, just like Iran's proven they can do on theirs. Allowing that to happen would doom future generations in civilized countries to a very ugly fate. That's why the issue must be addressed now. Amazingly enough, three Democrats in Congress have called for the USA to join in the battle against anti-Semitism in Europe, and a Republican even condemned the UN for their own anti-Israel stances. That's encouraging, but let's not forget for the moment that with Obama in charge, it'll be very hard to wage the battle against Islamofascism effectively unless a better politician can be found who'll focus on the issues without dishonesty.

OBAMA, KADDAFY, AND ISIS

When Obama CLAIMED Kaddafy - (who at the time was cooperating with our war against islamists) - was going to commit genocide (against islamists), he attacked and overthrew Kaddafy.

Obama aided the islamists.

ISIS actually is committing genocide, and Obama does nothing.

WHY?

Because if he attacked them he would be attacking the islamists.

Obama loves islamism more than he wants to stop genocide.

Especially genocide of Christians. Or Jews.

Obama has CONSISTENTLY aided islamists and CONSISTENTLY attacked Christians and Jews - from Hobby Lobby to Bibi.

Obama is evil. PERIOD.

SUSPECT IN MURDER OF 3 YESHIVA STUDENTS ARRESTED

The authorities have arrested a Hamas supporter who appears to be involved in the kidnap/murder of the yeshiva students:
Israeli authorities said on Tuesday they had arrested a Palestinian suspected of being involved in the kidnapping and murder of three Israeli teenagers in June.

Hussam Kawasme, a 40-year-old resident of the West Bank city of Hebron, was arrested on July 11 in connection with the killing of Israelis Gil-Ad Shaer, Naftali Fraenkel and Eyal Yifrah, who went missing on June 12 and were discovered dead a couple of weeks later. [...]

The court document said Kawasme had admitted to helping to organise the kidnapping - securing funding from the Hamas Islamist group in Gaza and purchasing weapons which he passed on to the two other suspects who carried out the attack.

Kawasme also helped to bury the bodies of the teenagers in a plot of land he had bought a few months earlier, it said.

Israel has named the other two suspects in the case as Marwan Kawasme and Amar Abu Aysha.
I hope they find those two other pieces of filth too. They should be put in isolated cells for their crimes and fed only the worst of food, which shouldn't even be halal.

FORMER ARCHBISHOP OF CANTERBURY STILL THINKS ISLAM IS PERFECT FOR BRITAIN

Rowan Williams, the former archbishop of Canterbury, thinks Islamism is reviving British values:
Islam is rejuvenating “British values”, the former Archbishop of Canterbury has claimed while lambasting sections of the press for presenting Muslims as “un-British”.
Gee, really, they're being that negative to Islam? I've had enough experience with the UK press to know they're anything but negative about Muslim adherents in Britain, or anywhere for that matter.
Rowan Williams was giving a speech at the annual Living Islam Festival in Lincolnshire on Friday, discussing what British values were and how Muslims could affect them.

He said one of the greatest gifts to Britain had been bringing back “open, honest and difficult public discussion”, the Times reported.

Asked if he thought Islam was restoring British values, he said: “Yes. I’m thinking of the way in which, for example, in Birmingham we have seen a local parish and a mosque combining together to provide family services and youth activities, both acting out of a very strong sense that this is what communities ought to do.”
Williams sure loves floating around in bubbles, doesn't he? I'm guessing it was a dhimmified church he speaks of. It's just like some of them in that country to keel over. Interestingly, Williams also spoke against UK values:
...in comments reported by the Guardian, he also objected to the notion of British values, saying they should be more universal.

“The setting-up therefore of British values against any kind of values, whether Muslim or Christian, just won't do,” he said.
Translation: Muslim values are superior to British "values", whatever they had to begin with. And let's not be fooled by his supposed support for Christianity.
His comments have provoked less controversy than some previous statements on Islam.
At a convention like that, it figures. As for the rest of the public, I hope it's because they're tired of phonies like him, and see no point in listening to a word of his dreary babble.

EVEN ISRAEL DOESN'T WIN IF THE ARMY RETREATS

The JTA is asking who won and lost in the Gaza war. While the Hamas did lose in terms of weapons and tunnels, Israel is also losing by just retreating and not destroying the terrorist organization altogether. And of course, there's also the problem of anti-Israel propaganda the country will now have to face.

ISLAMO-TERRORIST ARMY ATTEMPTING TO INVADE LEBANON

THIS IS JUST THE START:

BBC:
Two more Lebanese soldiers have reportedly been killed, as fighting with Syrian rebels on the Lebanese border continues for a fourth day.
A young girl has also been shot dead, after clashes spread.
The fighting began on Saturday when rebels raided Arsal, a mainly Sunni Lebanese town, after Lebanese forces detained an alleged member of Syria's Islamist militant group al-Nusra Front.
At least 15 soldiers have been killed in the area since the weekend.
MORE FROM PRESS-TV:
The Lebanese army managed to retake most of the positions that been seized by ISIL militants and other Takfiris in the village of Arsal. But the cost has been heavy; with the Lebanese military announcing that at least 16 soldiers had been killed as the fighting entered its third consecutive day. Lebanon’s premier declared full political cover for the army in this battle, after the cabinet held an extraordinary meeting.
Lebanon’s army described what is taking place as the most dangerous developments the country has yet to witness. In a rare press conference Lebanon’s army chief said that the attacks come after a long period of planning large scale operations against the Lebanese military. Hezbollah for its part vowed to continue carrying out its responsibility in protecting the country against such threats.
UPDATE:

WASHINGTON POST: "Islamic State ‘now controls resources and territory unmatched in history of extremist organizations’"
It’s just the latest step in the Islamic State’s regional expansion. What was recently a ragtag cadre of former al-Qaeda operatives has now morphed into a transnational, fully militarized and very rich operation said to control more than one-third of Syria’s territory. It makes al-Qaeda look like a bunch of wannabe jihadists.
It’s “worse than al-Qaeda,” Brett McGurk, the State Department’s deputy assistant secretary for Iraq and Iran, told lawmakers last month. It “is no longer simply a terrorist organization. It is now a full-blown army seeking to establish a self-governing state through the Tigris and Euphrates valley in what is now Syria and Iraq.”
Some accounts say it’s no longer seeking to do this — but has already done it.
NICE JOB, OBAMA!

THIS IS WHAT WE GET BECAUSE OBAMA HAS:
  • APPEASED IRAN AND 
  • RETREATED FROM IRAQ, AND 
  • RETREATED FROM AFGHANISTAN, AND 
  • RENEGED ON HIS SYRIAN RED-LINE, AND 
  • RELEASED THE TALIBAN-5 FOR A DESERTER - AND 
  • FOR PRESSURING ISRAEL ALL THE TIME.
AT BEST, THE BURGEONING GLOBAL RELIGIOUS WAR IS THE FRUIT OF APPEASEMENT.

IT MAY VERY WELL BE THE THORNY FRUIT OF A  FALSE PROPHET:
15 Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
16 Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?
17 Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit.
18 A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.
19 Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.
20 Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.

TWO JIHAD ATTACKS, ONE WITH A TRACTOR, THE OTHER WITH A GUN

There were two terrorist attacks in Jerusalem today. The first one was near the Mount of Olives hotel:
A tractor driven by a Palestinian man rammed into a bus in central Jerusalem early Monday afternoon, close to the “seam” between the western and eastern parts of the city.

A male pedestrian approximately 30 years old was run over by the tractor as it headed toward the bus and was killed. The tractor driver, identified as East Jerusalem resident Muhammed Naif El-Ja’abis, turned the bus over onto its side during the attack, making several efforts to do so before he succeeded. The bus driver as well as five others were lightly hurt.

Police said the attack, which took place at the end of Shmuel Hanavi Street, near the Olive Tree Hotel, was nationalistically motivated.

A police officer and Prisons Service official who realized what was happening ran up to the tractor and fired a volley of shots at the terrorist as he sat in the cab and killed him, Jerusalem police chief Yossi Pariente said.

The tractor driver was identified by Palestinians on social media as Muhammed Naif El-Ja’abis from the East Jerusalem neighborhood of Jabel Mukaber.

Internal Security Minister Yitzhak Aharonovitch said the terrorist was known to the authorities from a previous incident, and that his family was being questioned.

Praising the actions of the police, he said, “The quick response saved lives.” Aharonovitch added that officials had considered the possibility that there could be an attack against the background of the ongoing Israeli military campaign against Hamas in Gaza. “We took that into account at the start of the operation down south,” he said.

Security officials told Channel 2 news that Ja’abis may have carried out the attack for revenge after his cousin’s home was demolished two weeks ago.
For his act of murder, that monster deserved to die. And sadly, it wasn't the only jihad attack today. There was another at Mount Scopus:
According to a report on Channel 2, an Israeli was shot in the stomach at the entrance to the Har Hatzofim (Mount Scopus) tunnel in Jerusalem.

An eyewitness named Eti said that the victim is a soldier. "I saw him falling backward," she told reporter Moshe Nusbaum.

The wounded man is about 20, said the channel's reporters, and he is in moderate to serious condition and received treatment on the spot. He was then taken to the nearby Hadassah Har Hatzofim hospital.

Eyewitnesses said that he was shot by a man who then got on a motorcycle or scooter and then drove off toward the Arab neighborhood of Wadi Joz. There may have been another man on the scooter as well.

Police are conducting a manhunt assisted by helicopters.

While the background for the attack is not known, initial estimates are that it is nationalistically motivated.

Major General Yosi Parienti, Jerusalem District Police Commander, said that the shooter was dressed in black and that he fired several shots at the soldier from close range. The man then ran toward a Vespa type scooter and drove off. A security guard fired at the scooter but apparently missed it.

"There is a very high likelihood that this is a terror attack,” said Parienti. The soldier apparently has no criminal background and a criminal motivation appears unlikely.
Exactly. From the latest updates, there's a manhunt going on for the motocyclist who committed this second vile act. I hope they catch him, along with any accomplice he may have had.

HAMAS TRYING TO PULL OF ANOTHER "JENINGRAD" - AND THE LEFT AND THE MASS MEDIA ARE HELPING THEM, ONCE AGAIN

DURING THE 2ND INTIFADA, ARAFAT, HIS TERRORISTS AND HIS COMRADES IN THE LEFT TRIED TO CONVINCE THE WORLD THAT THE IDF HAD COMMITTED GENOCIDE IN JENIN - AND DUBBED IT "JENINGRAD"  - AS IF IT WAS AS BAD AS WHAT THE NAZIS DID TO THE RUSSIANS IN WW2 IN LENINGRAD.

TOM GROSS BRILLIANTLY TELLS THE ENTIRE "JENINGRAD" STORY HERE.

HERE'S THE GIST:

WIKI: 
The UN report to the Secretary General noted "Palestinians had claimed that between 400 and 500 people had been killed, fighters and civilians together. They had also claimed a number of summary executions and the transfer of corpses to an unknown place outside the city of Jenin. The number of Palestinian fatalities, on the basis of bodies recovered to date, in Jenin and the refugee camp in this military operation can be estimated at around 55."[4] 
... Lorenzo Cremonesi, the correspondent for the Italian newspaper Corriere della Sera in Jerusalem, writes in a 2009 article, that he slipped past the army barricades and entered the Jenin camp on April 13 in 2002. He says the hospital was almost deserted as doctors played cards in the emergency room and that he spoke to 25 lightly wounded patients who told heartrending stories but when asked for names of the dead and urged to show where the bodies were, became evasive. "In short, it was all talk and nothing could be verified," wrote Cremonesi. "At the end of that day, I wrote that the death toll was not more than 50 and most of them were combatants".
On July 31, the UN issued a report indicating that at that time 52 Palestinians had been killed and that it was possible that as many as half of them were civilians.[108]
ULTIMATELY, THE LIES AND PROPAGANDA FAILED THEN, AND  - WITH A LITTLE TIME - IT WILL FAIL AGAIN.

IT WILL TAKE TIME, THOUGH.

AS WS CHURCHILL SAID, A LIE GOES AROUND THE WORLD 5 TIMES BEFORE THE TRUTH GETS ITS PANTS ON.

GATESTONE HAS A DETAILED ANALYSIS AND COMMENTARY BY A BRITISH RETIRED MILITARY MAN WHO SERVED IN THE BALKANS AND AFGHANISTAN AND WAS AN ADVISOR TO THE PM. RTWT!

BOTTOM-LINE:

There are ALWAYS going to be collateral civilian causalities when fighting against non-uniformed enemy combatants and terrorists who embed themselves and their weapons in the civilian population to cynically use them as human shields in violation of all war conventions. 

Here's what CBS News vet BOB SCHIEFFER had to say: 
"In the Middle East, the Palestinian people find themselves in the grip of a terrorist group that has embarked on a strategy to get its own children killed in order to build sympathy for its cause -- a strategy that might actually be working, at least in some quarters.
Last week, I found a quote of many years ago by Golda Meir, one of Israel's early leaders, which might have been said yesterday. 
'"We can forgive the Arabs for killing our children,'" she said. "'But we can never forgive them for forcing us to kill their children.'" 
LET ME ADD THIS: statistics PROVE the extraordinary and unique measures the IDF takes to prevent collateral deaths works:


IF THE IDF WAS INDISCRIMINATELY KILLING GAZANS OR TARGETING CIVILIANS THEN THE NUMBERS WOULD LOOK VERY DIFFERENT.

THE FACT THAT THE OVERWHELMING NUMBER OF DEAD OR MEN BETWEEN 19-30 YEARS OLD PROVES THE IDF IS TARGETING HAMAS TERRORISTS.

BECAUSE THEY HIDE THEMSELVES AND THEIR WEAPONS AMONG THE CIVILIANS ALL - REPEAT - ALL THE CIVILIAN CAUSALITIES ARE THE FAULT OF HAMAS.

ISRAEL AND THE IDF ARE THE ONLY FORCE IN THE WEST ACTIVELY FIGHTING GLOBAL JIHAD.

THAT'S A SAD FACT.

IT'S WAY PAST TIME THE WEST REJOINED THE FIGHT.

THIS WON'T HAPPEN UNTIL GLOBAL APPEASER IN CHIEF OBAMA IS DEALT WITH.

WE CAN START THIS NOVEMBER.

IN FACT, IT'S NOVEMBER OR NEVER.


PRISON STAFF THWARTS ATTEMPT BY ISLAMIC JIHADISTS TO ESCAPE

Some incarcerated Islamic Jihad members tried to tunnel their way out of the Gilboa prison, and were thankfully stopped:
The Israel Prisons Service on Sunday foiled an attempt by Palestinian security prisoners to tunnel their way out of Gilboa prison, according to a statement the IPS put out Sunday.

According to the IPS, the eight prisoners, all affiliated with Islamic Jihad, and some of whom are serving lengthy sentences, had begun building a tunnel in the bathroom of the cell.

At the moment the IPS is trying to figure out where the destination of the tunnel was meant to be, though for now they suspect that it was to be used for an escape.

They added that they found the tunnel because of "intelligence" they received.
I think it's time to start adding steel plates beneath the floors of those prisons to ensure high risk security inmates prone to jihad can't escape.

SOLDIER FEARED KIDNAPPED BY HAMAS NOW DECLARED DEAD

The IDF estimates he was killed in an explosion while fighting in the tunnels:
The Israeli military said Sunday that an Israeli soldier it previously believed had been captured by Hamas terrorists in a Gaza ambush had in fact been killed in battle that day.

The soldier's purported capture Friday had helped shatter an internationally brokered cease-fire, drawn global condemnation and triggered military activities in the area of his disappearance in southern Gaza that left dozens of Palestinians dead and scores of homes destroyed.
This article was partly written by the AP Wire, and reeks of it: how do they know the Hamas would respect any alleged cease-fire? This is blame-game tactics, and it's just like the AP to pull a lie like this. They've been shooting rockets again lately, as told in this report, which is a bit improved over the other article, and the Hamas is not going to stop its horror anytime soon. They're so full of hatred, they'll go down with the sinking ship.

Update: here's more on the latest Hamas rocket fire:
The Iron Dome defense system intercepted at least one Gaza rockets over the great Tel Aviv area early Sunday evening, several other blasts were heard.

To warn of the incoming attack, rocket alert sirens were sounded in Tel Aviv, Holon, Bat Yam, Rishon Lezion, Bnei Brak, Givat Shmuel, Givatayim and Ramat Gan.

Three rockets also hit southern Israel projectiles fired from Gaza continued to rain down on the South.

Gazan terrorists launched more than 70 rockets at Israel by early evening Sunday.

Meanwhile, the IDF continued operations in the Gaza Strip on Sunday despite its decision to redeploy some forces to staging areas within Israel.

Paratroopers in the Gaza Strip detected four terrorists preparing to fire an anti-tank missile on Sunday. Acting on the information, the Armored Corps fired shells at a home in which the terrorists were stationed at.

The building collapsed and the terrorists were killed.

Meanwhile, Givati infantry soldiers uncovered 150 mortars, as well as a new tunnel shaft.

Earlier in the day, Givati soldiers also detected terrorists who had surfaced from a tunnel. The IDF fired shells at the cell, which escaped to a nearby home. Soldiers then fired at the home, and killed three terrorists. The IDF then destroyed the tunnel from which the terrorists had emerged.

In addition, the Israel Air Force killed eight terrorists in air strikes on Sunday. The IDF has attacked more than 40 terrorist targets since midnight on Sunday.

Leaflets were distributed throughout the northern Gaza Strip warning Gazans against participating in terrorist activities.
This is exactly why IDF forces cannot be scaled back, and it's very stupid to do what they're doing now. To stop specific areas from firing missiles, they have to invade the precise points and destroy all launchers in that area, ditto searching for where weapons are stored. Only that way will more jihad attacks be deterred.

ISLAM GETS A PASS AS CHRISTIANS ARE SLAUGHTERED; MEANWHILE, JEWS GET VILIFIED FOR FIGHTING BACK!

Christians and Jews are both under attack from the Religion of Peace yet one is vilified for fighting for its own survival while the plight of the other is largely ignored!  
While world opinion moves squarely against Israel as it fights for survival against a terrorist group acting as a proxy for other terrorist groups along with some Middle Eastern governments, the plight of the Christians has gone largely ignored by the mainstream media! Here is a small snippet of the plight of Christians in many Muslim-controlled countries through the lens of what has happened to the 45 institutions in ISIS controlled Mosul since the terrorist organizations takeover there June 10th:
