The Hamas terrorist organization is rebuilding in Gaza

Some experts are warning that, while the war against Iran and Lebanon continue, the Hamas has been exploiting that time in order to rebuild its grip on Gaza:

While Israel focuses on threats from Iran and the northern front, Hamas is quietly reconstructing its infrastructure and strengthening control over Gaza, according to security experts. Footage and intelligence reveal convoys guarded by armed operatives, tunnels being refurbished, and the organization reestablishing itself economically-raising concerns among residents near the Gaza border that warnings of Hamas’s collapse have been premature.

Raphael Hayon, who operates an independent intelligence center from his home in Netivot, says he identified signs of distress and preparations for raids even before the October ceasefire. In an interview with Alon Sharvit on Kan News, Hayon warns that Hamas is undergoing a rapid reconstruction process.

He cites recent videos showing convoys of trucks entering Gaza, guarded by armed Hamas operatives. The footage illustrates Hamas’s full control over civilian areas up to the “yellow line," with personnel carrying light weapons and RPGs directing movement and setting the agenda on Gaza’s streets.

The Israeli authorities have been allowing truck convoys into Gaza without any inspection? I don't know, but if that's even remotely the case, it shows how security continues to be a serious fiasco, as is the way the Hamas is allowed to continue trying to reorganize. The IDF will have to prove they can act upon this info.

Zohran Mamdani's wife is just as bad as he is

It's been reported that the wife of New York City's first Muslim mayor was involved in anti-Israeli activities, among other things just as repugnant as what he upholds:

Despite New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s repeated attempts to shield his wife from public scrutiny by labeling her a “private person,” a series of bombshell revelations has exposed first lady Rama Duwaji as being involved in a radical Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) campaign.

Duwaji, a professional illustrator, is under fire for providing the creative backdrop for the DSA’s “Palestine on the Ballot” initiative — a project that used Duwaji’s animations to mobilize voters against candidates backed by the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) and promote legislation targeting Jewish charities.

The campaign also highlighted the “Not on Our Dime Act,” a controversial bill originally sponsored by Mamdani during his time in the New York State Assembly, which would target certain nonprofits accused of supporting Israeli settlements.

Critics argue Duwaji’s “behind-the-scenes” role is a facade.

“Does anybody believe she’s a private citizen?” asked Dov Hikind, founder of Americans Against Antisemitism. Hikind characterized the first lady as even more radical than the mayor, calling the couple “two peas in a pod” united by “vile hatred” for Israel.

The DSA collaboration is only the latest in a mounting pile of evidence regarding Duwaji’s radical leanings. Reports have surfaced showing that she used her social media accounts to endorse extreme, anti-Semitic rhetoric, including content that framed terrorist violence in supportive terms.

Duwaji reportedly “liked” Instagram posts on the day of the Hamas massacre that featured live-streamed footage of terrorists breaching the Gaza border and commandeering Israel Defense Forces vehicles. One post she approved of hailed the attack as “breaking the walls of apartheid.”

More recently, Duwaji liked a post that dismissed the documented mass rapes of Israeli women during the October 7 attacks as a “mass hoax” fabricated by the media.

Duwaji has also been credited with providing lead graphics for an essay by Susan Abulhawa, an activist who has described Jewish people as “vampires,” “demons,” and “rootless ghouls.”

The revelation of Duwaji’s involvement with the DSA belies Mayor Mamdani’s efforts to present a more moderate front. While Mamdani’s office issued a standard statement condemning Hamas as a terrorist organization, his wife’s digital trail suggests a much darker affinity for the “resistance” that her husband publicly critiques.

No doubt, she tries to do a lot of the stuff he might hold his cards closer to his chest about. Of course, when Mamdani himself talks about "globalizing the intifada", that's very telling too. Just another example of how NYC's become hopeless these days.

Where comics writer Kurt Busiek now posts his sad political rants

Years ago, when X was Twitter, leftist writer Kurt Busiek had plenty of terrible leftist drivel to say there. Today, after Elon Musk bought out the social network, it looks like Busiek no longer posts there, presumably because he can't stand being on a rightist-owned site, and now he's turned to Blue Sky. And here's a few examples of his continuing leftist rhetoric there. For example:

Wow, look how he's trying to draw a moral equivalence between antisemitic and "anti-palestinian" sentiment, making it sound like Iran's mullahs are literally against local Moslems, or as though the fabricated race/community "palestine" isn't Islamic. Put another way, Busiek's clearly not interested in doing any research to determine that the whole name "palestine" was a Roman conception, drawing from the Philistines, to humiliate the land of Stan Lee's ancestry. Also interesting how Busiek simultaneously attacks the POTUS who's now overseeing a raid against Iran's tyrants to destroy their murderous weaponry. Whose side is Busiek on anyway? He's right that Iran's got anti-LGBTQ positions, but, if he won't acknowledge it stems from the teachings of the koran, then his approach there falls flat too.

Then we have:

The USA military many sigificant achievements so far, like destroying Iran's naval crafts, and Busiek's ungrateful? Just what and who does Busiek stand for anyway?

Busiek even posted the following involving Israel:

How intriguing he lectures us all that Israelis across the board literally don't support Benjamin Netanyahu as prime minister, this despite how recent pollings show he has sizable support, and plenty of support for the war against Iran's tyrants. What's telling here is how Busiek doesn't back up his claim, and while he may acknowledge the Islamofascists of Iran are willing to attack civilians, his absurd biases ruin any notion he respects the Israeli public on anything. Also atrocious is how Busiek subtly compares Netanyahu to the Iranian Islamofascists. Shame.

Next we have this:

And is that supposed to mean the military commanders don't face any danger, say, from enemy moles and sleeper agents? Oh good grief, this is just so naive. Then there's this and this:

Busiek won't learn lessons either, that wasting so much energy attacking conservatives doesn't improve the situation. And if he's implying Americans and Israelis who allegedly want war should die, that's disturbing as well, and sick. Besides, it's not that any sensible person literally wants war for "fun". They support war against tyrants because there's situations where force is inevitable if that's what it takes to stop barbarism. Busiek also made unverified claims that Israelis literally are guilty of war crimes, and also this item, and this one:

Well if that's what he thinks, but doesn't think the Islamofascists running Afghanistan today aren't guilty of war crimes against the ancient Buddhist inhabitants who originally dwelled there, that's disgraceful too. Ditto if he doesn't think Turkey's guilty of war crimes against Armenia. And Busiek also reposted the following from Tom Peyer:

I guess that means Mr. Peyer's also hostile to Israelis, conservative or otherwise? For shame. Later on, Busiek made a nasty comment about Trump:

And then, what did Busiek say about the US army attack on Kharg island?

If he's no military expert, he has no business commenting, and also had no business writing superhero comics. But who knows, maybe today, he regrets writing superhero tales. It is rather funny he'd write anything starring say, Captain America, considering Kirby/Simon created Steve Rogers as a military cadet who volunteered for the super-soldier serum experiment that made him the formidable fighter he became. But then, that's why, if Busiek really feels that way today, he should no longer be writing superhero themes, plain and simple.

Interestingly, if it matters, Busiek also mentioned the disgraced Gerard Jones, and said the following:

What's that supposed to mean long before? Does that mean people not wanting to benefit monsters is something that only recently came up? Let's be clear. If Jones had been caught in the acts years before and it made headlines in the news, you can be sure there's plenty who'd want nothing to do with him anymore. And must it be pointed out Staton didn't just illustrate comics written by sick Jones? Staton got into comics as far back as the early 1970s, and he'd drawn Green Lantern before, beginning in 1979, for stories written by writers with far better reputations than Jones will ever have at this stage. Staton also has other comics to his credits (including some Batman books), and even a few at Marvel. What, does Busiek have a grudge against Staton or something? That aside, if there's anything Busiek wrote that perhaps we shouldn't benefit, it's his creator-owned comics like Astro City and Arrowsmith, based on how he's indirectly insulting plenty of decent USA military officials who're working hard to bring down the Islamic regime in Iran. Don't their reputations matter? Don't even the reputations of 911 Families matter? Why, what about Betty Mahmoody, who was fortunate to get her daughter out of Iran during the mid 1980s after her creep of a husband taqqiya'd them into traveling there? How don't topics like those ever matter to Busiek?

And since Jones came up, this is very embarrassing, but it appears that since his release from prison nearly 4 years ago, he's been quietly turning up on social media again, and even posting chapters of a book he wrote called "Ginny Good" on a Substack site. Most disgraced writers of his sort would ususally just disappear after all the harm they caused. But Jones appears to be one of those sorts who cannot keep his stupid mouth shut. And if there's at least one example of what political rants he's posting to put on display here, it's the following:

Well. Looks like Jones hasn't changed from the time he first said a decade back he considered Trump a "fascist". And I guess he also considers Trump a communist, seeing how he claims the POTUS wants to be like Vladimir Putin. And all this after Jones was arrested and convicted for illegally hoarding child porn. What, does he think because he's been paroled from prison after 2 thirds of his sentence, it's okay to go right back to such crap again? As though it weren't bad enough he was trying to downplay his criminal offenses when he was still behind bars. All that aside, does he really think anybody wants to read even his text-only books after what he did? Such a repellent disgrace indeed. I wonder how Busiek feels about having written a backup story for Wonder Man in one of the 2 annuals for the 1991-94 series Jones wrote over 3 decades ago? That series was practically worthless as it is.

It's very sad some of the same leftist comics writers of the past decade refuse to stop wasting time on divisive politics, yet quite interesting how, ever since X/Twitter was bought out by a conservative supporter, they decided to jump ship from that service over to one that's more attuned to their leftist beliefs. That, alas, doesn't make the situation any better for the well being of the world.

Muslims in India attack Hindus over music

Hugh Fitzgerald points to the disturbing problem of Islamofascists in India who attacked Hinduists over their music celebrations, on Ramadan and surely even when it's not the holiday:

Contrary to the popular view that portrays them as a hapless minority, Muslims are the second-largest population and the fastest-growing demographic in India, and by far the most pampered one, be it by media, politicians, or pop culture. Ramadan is a month when Muslims fast during the daytime; however, it is shocking how Muslims force their religious beliefs on non-Muslims, Hindus in particular, and stop them from going on with their regular lives and celebrating their festivities.

In Banswada town in Telangana, a Muslim mob gathered in front of a department store and resorted to violence. The incident occurred on February 20, when a Hindu saleswoman at the Reliance Smart Mart store played a devotional song dedicated to the Hindu deity, Goddess Durga. A Muslim customer, Muzammil, who was at the store at the time, objected to the music and asked her to stop it, as Ramadan was ongoing.

The situation quickly deteriorated, as a massive Muslim crowd gathered outside the store and began throwing stones at it. Police efforts to calm the throng were also met with stone-throwing, leaving at least two police constables injured. Police officials have confirmed that 10 to 12 individuals have been arrested in connection with the unrest. In response, additional security forces were deployed throughout the town to stop further escalation. Authorities, who are always rushing in to safeguard Muslims, their interests, and image, warned against the spread of provocative content on social media that could incite further communal tension. Efforts were reportedly made to suppress this news, or rather, the incident did not find mention in many news reports.

Another incident of Islamic entitlement during the holy month occurred in Ahmedabad, Gujarat, which again was not reported by most news agencies, lest the popular perception of Muslims be tarnished. A traditional Hindu wedding procession turned violent on Friday night, February 20, after a dispute over the music played during the celebration escalated. The incident occurred in the Rakhial area when the Hindu groom’s party was playing songs dedicated to Hindu deities associated with the ceremony, a common practice in India. Muslims formed a gathering and objected to the music, citing the ongoing observance of Ramadan, and demanded that the Hindus stop playing the songs.

The disagreement quickly turned hostile, as Muslims started throwing stones at wedding guests and nearby parked vehicles, forcing the celebration to be halted abruptly. The Hindus were holding their celebrations at their venue, and the Muslims still objected to it, claiming that they were fasting and preferred quieter gatherings.

This is utterly repugnant, and any police, media and politicians who bury the news for the sake of brownie points should be absolutely ashamed of themselves. The public in India who were struck by these atrocities should start demanding that the Islamofascists be exiled, and there should be serious opposition to any further indoctrination by the Religion of Peace.

Trump declines Kurdish offer to participate in Iran war

President Trump told that he didn't want Kurdish militias to take part in the Iran war:

US President Donald Trump on Saturday rejected the idea of the Kurds joining the war against Iran.

Speaking on Air Force One, he said, "We're not looking at the Kurds going into Iran. We're very friendly with the Kurds. We don't want to make the war anymore complex."

"I have ruled it out - I don't want the Kurds going in. They're willing to go in, but I told them not to."

Well there's a valid reason why it's better they don't take part in this war - many Kurds adhere to Islam, and it just wouldn't do to fight a regime already badly battered by the Religion of Peace using other adherents, even as backups, because we can't risk having them plot a takeover that would leave the region unchanged. After all, it's bad enough that the USA government had to recognize Ahmed al-Sharaa as the head of Syria after Bashar Assad was overthrown, and now things are getting worse, and it's unhealthy for Israel too. So for now, the Kurds in the Iranian area may not take part. But somebody has to convince Trump and company it's also bad to recognize al-Sharaa and his cronies as well. After all, what if such a region also tries to follow in Iran's footsteps to building nuclear weapons one day? What may have begun with Iran doesn't stop with them.

Tucker Carlson and Candace Owens are joined in their shoddiness by another veteran commentator

Robert Spencer talks about whether the USA military's attack on Iran led by Donald Trump will avail the Iranian people, and discusses the now classic rotten apples on the right who're just as bad as leftists. And along the way, a most eyebrow raising example comes up:

This is what most irritated Trump’s critics on both the left and the right: the fact that America was intervening at all. Both leftists and the new, antisemitic, isolationist “woke right” that sees Israel behind every U.S. foreign policy move have insisted that any U.S. intervention in Iran will turn out to be prolonged, disastrous, and unsuccessful just as the misguided and botched interventions into Iraq and Afghanistan were.

The former conservative wunderkind and gadfly Milo Yiannopoulos, now reduced to a pathetic Jew-hating attention-seeker, wrote: “O Allah, preserve Ayatollah Khamenei – O Allah, indeed we place You in their throats, and we seek refuge in You from their evils.” He was just looking for clicks and notoriety, but he unwittingly encapsulated the “woke right” ethos: if a military action is undertaken in cooperation with Israel, it must be evil in itself, and opposed to the extent of allying oneself with the regime that screams “Death to America” and has been on a war footing against the United States since 1979. Milo is just a more flamboyant and outlandish version of Tucker Carlson, Candace Owens, and Nick Fuentes, who are plenty outlandish as it is.

Well. This is definitely telling. I recall Yiannapoulos seemed to be trying to downplay the idea that murdering prostitutes in a video game was somehow a petty issue simply because it was all part of a mere computer program. But he ran the risk of normalizing violence in real life by minimizing it in a video game, and it's definitely not a laughing matter. As a result, Yiannapoulos made himself look as bad as that disgusting "feminist" named Anita Sarkeesian from Canada.

And now he's acting as some kind of apologist for Iran's Islamofascists?!? Groan. Just what we need, another bizarre grovelor from the fringes of the right. It's absolutely terrible. I'm not sorry he's been largely rejected based on disturbing statements he made about sexual abuse, though I suspect most leftists wouldn't care what he says at this point, save for trying to make the right look worse in every way than the left. How do creeps like Yiannapoulos manage to win favor of certain crowds before being unmasked as the frauds they are? Just plain aggravating as it's repulsive.

Former Iranian "president" Ahmedinejad wiped out

One of the most vile antisemitic politicians in Iran has been obliterated along with a bodyguard of his:

According to Iranian reports, former Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad was killed together with his bodyguard during an Israeli airstrike on the country, while under house arrest.

Serving as Iran's sixth president between 2005 and 2013, Ahmadinejad is remembered as one of the Islamic Republic's most extreme and antisemitic voices. He was open about his aspiration to destroy Israel.

In 2009, his controversial reelection set off the largest protests in post-revolution Iran's history until that point. The regime under his lead responded with a bloodbath, killing dozens and sending hundreds to prison.

I guess it's an irony he was put under house arrest later, probably part of the ayatollah's intention to throw him under the bus, and now both can appear before the highest court. Such a vile tyrant Ahmedinejad also was, and now he's also gone for good.

Confirmation that Khamenei was obliterated

The IDF announced they received intel confirmation that the most recent ayatollah in Iran has been punished along with 2 of his cronies:

On the eve of Purim 5786 (2026): A senior Israeli official said Saturday night that according to data received by the defense establishment, Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei was eliminated in the heart of Tehran.

According to additional reports received during the day, Khamenei’s close adviser, Ali Shamkhani, recently appointed by Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian as Secretary of the Supreme Defense Council, was also eliminated. During Operation Rising Lion, Shamkhani’s home was struck and he was trapped under the rubble for three hours but survived.

In Israel, it is also estimated that the commander of the Iranian Revolutionary Guards, General Mohammad Pakpour, was eliminated in the opening strikes of Operation Roaring Lion on Saturday morning. Pakpour was appointed to his position after his predecessor, Hossein Salami, was eliminated by Israel in Operation Rising Lion.

Nasir Zadeh, who is believed to have been eliminated Saturday morning, served as Chief of Staff of the Iranian Air Force. He also served as commander of the Iranian Air Force and Deputy Chief of the General Staff of Iran’s armed forces.

Here's more news:

8:45 PM: Iranian state media has confirmed that Ayatollah Ali Khamenei was killed in U.S-Israeli strikes, saying: “To Allah we belong and to Him we shall return,” the New York Times reported.

8:20 PM: Iranian state media has reportedly admitted that multiple members of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei’s family were killed during U.S-Israeli strikes, including his daughter, grandchild, daughter-in-law, and son-in-law, according to Reuters. So far, state media has yet to confirm President Donald Trump’s assertion that the Supreme Leader was killed on Saturday.

And one of the reasons the raid's been successful so far is because the military found impressive ways to sabotage Iran's air defenses:

The United States military reportedly deployed Tomahawk missiles and new “one-way” attack drones during its opening strikes against the Islamist regime in Iran on Saturday.

Iran’s air defence systems were reportedly “effectively suppressed” by a “multi geographic command and control” strategy that was designed to “overwhelm Iran’s defenses,” U.S. officials said, according to Chief National Security Correspondent for Fox News Jennifer Griffin.

Griffin reported that in the strikes launched by President Donald Trump, the U.S. military used new capabilities, including “one-way attack drones” for the first time in combat alongside Tomahawk missiles during the initial wave of strikes.

She said that the strikes focused on “high value targets” such as Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) facilities, Naval sites, and “underground facilities” likely linked to the nation’s nuclear programme.

“There were hundreds of targets in what is being described to me as a multi-day operation,” Griffin reported, adding that U.S. officials claimed that the Iranian response has so far been “ineffective” and that the strikes have “effectively suppressed their air defenses.”

Even so, it's a shame that so far, they were unable to prevent the dark forces of Iran from launching more missiles, with the targets even including other neighboring Arab/Islamic states. We must hope that the effort being carried out so far will eventually avail in stopping Iran's attacks altogether, and good riddance to filthy Khamenei.

The war against Iran is on again

Today, both Israeli and USA military forces launched a new raid against Iran's deadly missile sources, and may have eliminated ayatollah Ali Khameini:

Israel said on Saturday that it has taken part in a U.S.-led military operation in Iran, with Jerusalem reportedly targeting the top leadership of the Islamist regime in Tehran.

Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei and President Masoud Pezeshkian were among those targeted by Israeli forces on Saturday in strikes conducted in conjunction with an attempt by the United States to destroy Tehran’s missile programme, the Times of Israel reported.

The head of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, Gen. Mohammad Pakpour, as well as Iran’s defence and intelligence chiefs, were also said to be targeted in the strikes. It is currently unknown which, if any, strikes were successful at the time of this reporting.

The Israeli Defence Forces said that it had struck “hundreds of targets” in Western Iran as part of its so-called “Operation Roaring Lion”. Targets included missile launchers, the IDF said.

Meanwhile, New York Times reporter Christiaan Triebert published a satellite image purporting to show the destruction of Khamenei’s compound in Iran. It is unclear if the Ayatollah was in the compound at the time of the apparent attack.

The IDF did express cautious optimism Khameini was blasted, and we should definitely hope he was. There may have been a report a few months ago though, that he was planning to follow Syria's ousted dictator Assad in fleeing to Russia. Which only makes clear why they're still a serious danger too. Mainly because, based on how many Muslims are in Russia today, what if they use that as a means of taking over from where the communists leave off?

Here's more about Reza Pahlavi's response:

The son of the last Shah of Iran, Reza Pahlavi, called on the country’s military, police, and security forces to abandon the “crumbling” Islamist regime of the Ayatollah amid U.S. and Israeli strikes on Saturday.

“Decisive moments lie before us,” the exiled crown prince of Iran said amid a major military operation launched in the early hours of Saturday by U.S. President Donald Trump in conjunction with Israeli forces targeting the rogue nation’s missile programme and leadership apparatus.

In a statement on social media, Reza Pahlavi said that the military operation initiated by President Trump should be seen as a “humanitarian intervention” targeting the Islamist regime — “and its machinery of killing” — rather than a strike on the country and people of Iran.

“However, despite the arrival of this assistance, the final victory will still be achieved by us. It is we, the people of Iran, who will finish this task in this final battle. The time to return to the streets is approaching,” he said.

We can only hope this operation will finally deliver justice and bring down a regime that Ronald Reagan did nothing to prevent from reaching the levels of dangerous power and tyranny they were at until now.

The foreign sources that aided and abetted the October 7, 2023 jihadist bloodbath

Larry Taunton wrote about the now tragic history of the October 7, 2023 jihad attack on Israeli targets, and how certain totalitarians also had a role in the barbarism, along with certain western sources:

Oct. 7 was years in the making and could not have been successfully executed without the aid and discretion of the people of Gaza. Moreover, it involved the assistance of numerous foreign players: China supplied the vehicles which were smuggled across the Egypt-Gaza border through tunnels; North Korea supplied weapons; Iran supplied weapons, technology, and training; and Qatar supplied money to build homemade weapons and to pay terrorists and the Gazans who worked for them.

In other words, Oct. 7 was an act of war.

It was planned with the precision of a Pearl Harbor. And like Pearl Harbor, the attack caught the enemy off-guard and flatfooted. There were indicators an attack might be coming: Israeli SIM cards, thousands of them, lighting up all over Gaza the night before the attack; Hamas carrying out military exercises openly; reports that key Hamas leaders were going to ground; laborers from Gaza with Israeli work visas caught smuggling weapons into Israel, and so on.

There's only so much evil that was undoubtably planned in the 20th century itself, and now we've experienced the horrific results. And in addition to the communists of China and such, there's also the following:

I inspect the package again: “UNRWA. I don’t understand.”

“I found it in one of the captured pickup trucks the terrorists used,” he says. “They were carrying antibiotics and emergency aid kits —”

I can fill in the rest: — paid for by US tax dollars.

As Taunton continues to note, the Biden administration played a very horrific part in this as did the UN, along with a certain Israeli figure:

More than two years after the attack and a legal fight to keep it classified, Assaf Shmuelevitz’s name had just been released by the Supreme Court of Israel, but not much more than his name. According to Ynet News:

Shmuelevitz is accused of impersonating an IDF captain in the early days of the war following the October 7 massacre, entering military command centers, recording classified conversations, collecting sensitive information, and passing it to unauthorized individuals.

Lawyers for Shmuelevitz have entered what in U.S. legalese might be called an insanity plea. SM rolls his eyes at the mention of it. Shmuelevitz’s role remains unclear: whether he was acting alone; who his handlers were, if, indeed, he had any; and the damage that he did or didn’t do. What is clear to my lunch companion is the role the Biden administration played in the Oct. 7 massacre.

SM’s feelings about Trump’s wobbly predecessor are reflected in Netanyahu’s remarks a few days earlier. The prime minister claimed Biden bore at least some responsibility for Oct. 7 because his administration slapped a weapons embargo on Israel that left the IDF with insufficient ammunition. Predictably, this was followed by fierce denials from Democrats. But this was the least of it.

The Biden administration funded Oct. 7.

This is something that'll definitely be recalled in repugnance in history and years to come. What Biden led to is in some ways much worse than what Jimmy Carter led to in his time. And now, the tragedy's struck most repulsively. Read more of the article in full.

The Muslim Brotherhood has an agent in the Ohio assembly

Benjamin Baird reminds everybody that the Muslim Brotherhood, which the Trump administration's identified as a terrorist organization, has agents in USA politics, with one disturbing example being a Democrat representative of Columbus, Ohio:

In a highly anticipated move, the Trump administration designated factions of the global Muslim Brotherhood as terrorist organizations last month, an executive action with profound implications extending beyond the Middle East to America’s heartland. Astonishingly, a Somali-American legislator from Ohio, State Rep. Munira Abdullahi, D-Columbus, continues to serve as a national leader for the Muslim American Society (MAS), a registered nonprofit that federal prosecutors have identified as the “overt arm of the Muslim Brotherhood in America.”

Abdullahi’s involvement with MAS dates back to at least 2012, when she served as a youth director in Columbus and later as a national program director. The organization’s youth programs have been marred by scandals nationwide, including an incident in Philadelphia where children were taught songs about beheading Israeli Jews, and a fundraiser selling merchandise glorifying Hamas and Hezbollah terrorists. Upon her election to public office in 2022, Abdullahi appeared to distance herself from MAS, updating her LinkedIn profile to indicate she no longer worked for the group.

However, her ties persisted and deepened. Now heading MAS-Columbus and part of the organization’s national leadership, she leverages her elected status to host events featuring ultra-conservative preachers and pro-Hamas activists. Though MAS officially claims independence from the broader Sunni Islamist movement, a 2004 Chicago Tribune investigation exposed how its early leaders decided to conceal their Muslim Brotherhood affiliations while aiming to “convert Americans to Islam and elect like-minded Muslims to political office.”

Campaign finance records underscore this connection: in 2022, Abdullahi received a $1,000 contribution from an MAS colleague and later donated $2,400 from her campaign to MAS-Columbus.

I'd written about this Abdullahi myself in the past 4 years, and it's clear she doesn't belong in politics anywhere. It remains to be seen if the Trump administration will take any action against her and other such interlopers who don't belong in the USA or any other civilized country.

An upcoming Congressional hearing on banning sharia in the USA

Janet Levy talks about an upcoming panel in Congress on banning Islamic sharia in the USA:

Whenever patriots rise to defend America from radical Islam, liberals dismiss them as alarmist or Islamophobic. Therefore, criticism is likely to increase after the February 10th Sharia Free America hearings of the House Subcommittee on the Constitution and Limited Government. But not only is the threat real, it also grows stronger from apologists who insist that Islam is a religion of peace, even though Islamist groups openly swear by its medieval tenets of world conquest.

Fortunately, many House Republicans are standing against this growing threat. In less than a month, 26 representatives from 17 states have joined the Sharia-Free America Caucus, led by Representatives Keith Self (R-TX-3) and Chip Roy (R-TX-21). Their goal is to protect the Constitution and defend individual freedoms and the American way of life by passing laws to prevent sharia from invading our civic life and courts.

Read more. This is something that must also be taken to Europe, Africa, Asia and even Latin America, because who knows how much horrific influence of the Religion of Peace can be found in any part there? The time's come to deal with this properly, and the House hearings are just the beginning of what's needed.

NYC high school promotes hijabs to female students

In another horrific example of the effect Zohran Mamdani's election as first Muslim mayor of NYC has had, a local high school promoted "world hijab day" to female students:

A New York high school encouraged non-Muslim girls to try wearing hijabs to “dispel misconceptions.” But the event seems rather aimed to reinforce misconceptions, since it is obvious the girls were not informed about the violent misogyny inherent in and praised by Islam.

Domestic abuse, rape, bigamy, sex slavery, child brides, and honor killings are all allowed or endorsed by Islamic "sacred" texts, and the most minimal honest study of Islam makes it painfully obvious that females are always considered inferior and subject to men. For all these reasons, Islam is not compatible with the Judeo-Christian Western ethic. Yet Western leftists continue to lie to young people about Islam, particularly young women. [...]

Because Islam teaches that men are superior to women, it encourages men to "discipline" women as parents used to do to children. This includes explicit domestic abuse. Quran 4:34, for instance, reads, "Men have authority over women because Allah has made the one superior to the other, and because they spend their wealth to maintain them. Good women are obedient. They guard their unseen parts because Allah has guarded them. As for those from whom you fear disobedience, admonish them and send them to beds apart and beat them." In the hadith Sahih Muslim 2127, Aisha — the girl the 50-year-old Muhammad married when she was six — mentions how Muhammad struck her and called it just.

In the Ten Commandments of the Torah/Bible, it says "thou shalt not God's name in vain", yet that's tragically what the Religion of Peace has done for centuries now, and with people like Mamdani in charge, this propaganda is clearly just beginning, all at the expense of the fairer sex.

UN could be on the verge of bankruptcy

It looks like the awful UN is short on cash:

The United Nations is going broke and needs member nations to stump up cash. Lots of it. That is the plea from Secretary-General António Guterres who fears the globalist body is at risk of “imminent financial collapse” due to member states not paying their fees.

The former leader of the Portuguese Socialist Party said Friday the U.N. faces a financial crisis which was “deepening, threatening programme delivery” and money could run out as soon as July leaving the unaccountable globalist cabal destitute.

Such is the financial drama unfolding at U.N. headquarters in Geneva, signs warning of the situation have reportedly been put up everywhere. In an almost desperate attempt to save cash, the escalators are regularly turned off and the heating turned down, the BBC reports.

Guterres sent a missive to all 193 member states outlining his fears and pleading they had to honor their mandatory payments or overhaul the organisation’s financial rules to avoid collapse.

It comes after the U.N.’s largest contributor, the U.S., refused to contribute to its regular and peacekeeping budgets and withdrew from several agencies it called a “waste of taxpayer dollars.”

Let's hope this'll eventually spell the UN's closure, because they were practically ill-conceived from the start, and the USA should not have to pay any tax dollars to finance it. Interesting that Guterres is a socialist, because that ideology's caused only so much damage, just like Islam has, and the UN's undoubtably been serving as an indoctrination arm for promoting socialism as well. One more reason we don't need the UN continuing to cause trouble the world over anymore.

Long after the 1st and 2nd world wars, Americans unwilling to consider freedom isn't free

A poll was taken revealing a sad double-standard in the USA when it comes to Iran's dire situation:

New polling conducted by J.L. Partners provided exclusively to Breitbart News ahead of its public release shows Americans, especially Republicans, by and large support toppling the regime in Iran but are unwilling to put any American lives at risk to do so.

The stunning new data shows that, yes, Americans do not like the regime in Iran and would love to see it wiped out. But it also has bright warning lights for the White House as the president considers his options because the data suggests that Americans broadly, and Republicans specifically, do not want to risk even a single American life to accomplish that.

J.L. Partners is one of the few pollsters to nail the outcome of the 2024 presidential race, correctly predicting that President Donald Trump would win the national popular vote against Democrat Kamala Harris.

Overall, the new poll obtained by Breitbart News exclusively shows, more Americans support the U.S. toppling the regime in Iran than oppose doing so, with 36 percent supporting such an action — 18 percent strongly supporting and 18 percent somewhat supporting — compared to just 21 percent opposing. Eleven percent strongly oppose and 10 percent somewhat oppose, with 24 percent of Americans indifferent offering neither support nor opposition.

Among Republicans specifically, support for the U.S. toppling the Iranian regime goes up even higher with 60 percent—36 percent strongly and 24 percent somewhat — supporting the move. Just 8 percent are opposed, 4 percent apiece somewhat and strongly, while 21 percent of Republicans are unsure.

While that seems strong on both accounts — among Americans broadly and among Republicans specifically — it’s in the follow-up questioning where things get dicey. Almost everyone who supports the U.S. toppling the Iranian regime only does so if zero American lives are at risk in so doing.

When asked how many American fatalities are an acceptable number to stomach for the U.S. to topple the regime in Tehran, a majority of all Americans and specifically Republicans said zero. Among all Americans, and among Republicans specifically, 51 percent of each group said they would tolerate no American casualties to achieve the mission. Among all Americans, an additional 5 percent said they would tolerate less than 10 American casualties and another 6 percent said they would tolerate less than 100 American fatalities.

I'm guessing the Federalist editor John Daniel Davidson is quite likely of the crowd that's strongly hinting they refuse to even so much as go to war themselves. Let's be clear. Of course it's always terrible when even a single innocent life has to die in battle. That's what happened over here in the past 2 and a half years since October 7, 2023. But if nobody's willing to make sacrifices for the sake of other less fortunate people, then how does anybody expect in the long run to prevent Islamofascists in Europe from gaining the ability to build additional nuclear arsenals over there? Something vice president J.D. Vance warned about as well a short time ago. Now, we have a most disturbing situation where it's the WW2 isolationist stance all over again. And that's going to be costly in the long run. Especially if the same crowds in America who don't want to go to war against tyranny also don't want to get adherents to Islam to stop practicing the religion.

This devastating mentality is also why the war against racism was lost in the 19th century, even after slavery was abolished by Lincoln. It's also why China was taken over by communism, leading to the dire situation they're in now, with a collapsing birthrate. Most disgusting thing about such commies is how in contrast to the Religion of Peace, they don't want many children, if at all. Now, almost a century after WW2, it's sad to discover we have another case of whole generations who don't want to show the courage it takes to make a difference, and it's not just leftists, but also rightists who're balking.

What makes this additionally sad is that the USA public, Republican or otherwise, are letting down even figures like Reza Pahlavi's family, whose daughter Noor wrote an article about how he hopes to restore a civilized leadership. And while of course nobody should have to rely solely on the USA for backing against evil entities, that doesn't mean anybody in America should act like it's literally wrong to aid the persecuted. What matters is whether they have what it takes to make clear anybody who's practicing Islam can't do so anymore, and not be embarrassed to make the vital point. The same goes for Communism.

Trump's been sending military forces to the area near Iran to practice for any possible attack on Iran's horrormeisters. It's to be hoped he doesn't let these pollings get in the way of better judgement if the soldiers who've deployed are themselves ready to enter battle. But somebody must make clear to the public that, if they're not willing to recognize that moral sacrifices have to be made when darkness is looming, how will anybody be able to defend the USA itself properly if, in the future, Islamists take over Europe and gain access to nuclear technology? And, do they take a naive view to the point they believe it's virtually impossible for jihadists to penetrate the USA's defenses in such a way? No doubt, many leftists do. But if rightists also buy into naive visions, then they too have failed from an altruistic standing, and nothing's going to be solved.

The point is: freedom isn't free. Will the conservative movement begin to understand that, and if they do, will it be too late?

New documentary in the works about Zohran Mamdani that's bound to be sugarcoated

It appears the leftists in Hollywood decided to give NYC's first Muslim mayor more backing for the sake of it, by producing a documentary all about him that's bound to be mega-biased as can be:

A new documentary will chronicle openly socialist Zohran Mamdani’s rise to become Mayor of New York City, a journey that began in 2023.

The documentary will be directed Julia Bacha, who also serves as the creative director of the non-profit Just Vision, which reportedly tells stories that shine “a spotlight on the Israel-Palestine conflict,” per TheWrap.

“It was her interest in Israel and Palestine that led Bacha to Mamdani three years ago,” noted the outlet. “The Brazil-born filmmaker heard in 2023 about a group of New York activists who were calling for charities to stop using tax-deductible donations to fund Israeli settlements.”

Bacha said the documentary began as a focus on whether Mamdani and his team of pro-Palestinian lawmakers will be able to hold their assembly seats through New York’s next election cycle, but it instead morphed into him climbing to become mayor. She reportedly captured over 200 hours of footage chronicling this rise and was especially captivated by the influence of his filmmaker mother, Mira Nair.

For now, this is certainly telling enough. Another disturbing thing about Mamdani was his being "sworn in" to position as mayor on a koran instead of a bible. That says all you need to know what's going wrong in the USA, much as in Europe. This looks to be yet another documentary that gives the whole concept a bad name.

Theater play about October 7, 2023 will be shown at Kennedy Center

The playwrights who developed a theater show about October 7, 2023 will soon be bringing it to the Kennedy Center, which Donald Trump made efforts to renovate for the better:

Phelim McAleer and Ann McElhinney, producers of the Breitbart movie My Son Hunter, will soon be bringing their acclaimed play about the horrific October 7 terrorist attacks to the Kennedy Center this year.

“The play, which the New York Post has described as ‘spellbinding… powerful and a sanctuary for truth,’ will be the first controversial play to be performed in the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts since the Trump administration took it over,” said the announcement from Phelim McAleer.

[...] The play ran for six weeks during its 2024 run in New York City and reportedly “required a permanent police presence” due to its sensitive subject matter. Theater Scene called it “incredibly powerful” while Stage and Cinema hailed it as “a snapshot in time, as remembered by eyewitnesses,” insisting that audiences “see what is there in the moment.”

Speaking with Breitbart News prior to its release, writer Phelim McAleer said the world must not forget the tragedy of October 7.

“The progressive elites seem to want the world to forget about October 7 and what happened that day. And they are being successful,” McAleer told Breitbart News in an exclusive statement. We were in Ireland on October 7 and right away. People started talking about the need for a cease-fire and how terrible it was that they were ‘Turning off the electricity in Gaza.’”

“Everyone wanted to move on from October 7 but there would be no War in Gaza if it wasn’t for October 7,” he added.

What was especially disgraceful is how violence was being incited outside a theater by repulsive creeps who obviously didn't want anybody to be informed. The same movements involved doubtlessly oppose any such play about September 11, 2001. Of course, ever since Zohran Mamdani was elected NYC mayor, that's added insult to injury. I'm glad the Kennedy Center's running this play now, as it definitely needs to be run in many more venues, even overseas.

Communists in NYC accompany the increasing Muslim street prayer

From Christine Williams at Front Page, we see NYC seems to be quite a haven for communists:

🚨 JUST IN: Communist-funded paid protestors and WHITE LIBERALS are ALL OVER New York City right now, they are demanding Nicolas Maduro be freed and returned

EVERY SINGLE ONE is a traitor to America.

Sponsored by Communist funders. DEPORT THEM!pic.twitter.com/xJ2dd1nR7C

— Eric Daugherty (@EricLDaugh) January 4, 2026

No doubt, these traitors will be protesting in front of the federal court where Nicolas Maduro will face trial soon enough. A vital query in all this mess is, who's funding these neo-communists? And lest we forget, Times Square appears to have become a leading prayer area for Muslims in NYC:

Times Square is fully BLOCKED by Muslims praying.

I can't believe this is New York.

Unfortunately, I can believe it is. With the worst part being how NY state has clearly become a leftist bastion over the years, one of the main reasons it's at such a dismal level now. And it's sickening to wonder what any leftists in NY today think of the victims of September 11, 2001.

Zohran Mamdani sworn into office on the koran

NYC's first Muslim mayor was sworn into office, and perhaps unshockingly, on a koran instead of a bible:

Socialist Zohran Mamdani became mayor of New York City just after midnight Thursday, taking the oath of office as he placed his hand on the Islamic Quran in a private ceremony.

In doing so Mamdani, a Democrat, was confirmed as the first Muslim leader of America’s biggest city.

“This is truly the honor and the privilege of a lifetime,” the 34-year-old said in a brief speech, AP reports.

The strictly invitation-only gathering, overseen by New York Attorney General Letitia James, a political ally, took place at the old City Hall station, one of the city’s original subway stops known for its stunning arched ceilings.

Mamdani’s wife, the artist Rama Duwaji, held out the Quran over which Mamdani took his oath of office.

It's not hard to guess he had a private ceremony for starters because he didn't want any booing taking place if he did it publicly. That said, it's almost fitting the ceremony was held down in a subway station no longer in use, because that's where his whole agenda belongs. Down in the dumps. Also note, lest we forget, that he's the first politician in New York, if anywhere, who's been sworn into office on the koran itself.

Anyway, he's soon bound to cause disaster in more ways than meets the eye. He recently appointed Ramzi Kassem, a lawyer who defended one of al Qaeda's jihadists, to a prominent position on his staff. That's certainly another red flag. NYC faces dark days indeed.

Brigitte Bardot passes away at 91

The French actress who later became a political activist has died at 91:

Brigitte Bardot, the French screen legend who walked away from the film industry to support animal rights and lead opposition to open borders and mass immigration, has died. She was 91.

The Guardian reports Paris-born Bardot shot to international fame with the 1956 film And God Created Woman, written and directed by her then-husband Roger Vadim.

For the next two decades she embodied the idea of the archetypal “sex kitten.”

But what's amazing is that she did recognize the Muslim threat:

Bardot’s outspoken support of animal rights evolved into comments about ethnic minorities and open support for France’s Front National, resulting in a string of convictions for racial hatred.

Acknowledged as a symbol of woman’s liberation, Bardot told Le Figaro in 2015 she was against the Muslim face veil.

“Communitarianism takes on too much importance. It is the culmination of thirty years of laxity.”

A committed free speech activist, the actress faced trial five times between 1997 and 2008 for “inciting racial hatred” including for comments criticising mass Muslim immigration in France.

On one of these occasions, she was convicted for “decrying the loss of French identity and tradition due to the ‘multiplication of mosques while our church bells fall silent for want of priests’.”

She always maintained she simply respected the French way of life and sought to protect it and its inheritors.

Bardot was also a vocal opponent of Muslim halal slaughter, which often involves slaughtering an animal without stunning it, causing pain and distress before death.

And she also said years ago:

– “I am against the Islamisation of France! Our ancestors, our grandfathers, our fathers have for centuries given their lives to push out successive invaders.”

– “I like Marine (Le Pen, the leader of the French far-right) a lot. I won’t hide it. She is the only woman … who has balls.”

So much that the courts are now seeking to ban Le Pen from running in the next election. If there's anything we can appreciate from Bardot, it's that she was a realist on the topic of the Religion of Peace. And we should thank her by helping to defend her country from the Islamic invasion. No country should have to fall victim to such a horrific ideology.

Western safety continues to be under threat

Actress Noa Tishby lit Hanuka candles with Carla Bruni, and the latter said

Talking about her Jewish heritage, Bruni noted that her name is Bruni Tedeschi, and the Tedeschi is the Jewish side of the family.

“On my passport, I still have Tedeschi. My grandfather on my father's side was [from the] Jewish-Italian community,” recalled Bruni, who said that her grandfather went to study in Germany between the First World War and the Second World War. It was during this time that he felt the rise of antisemitism and ended up converting to Christianity in order to completely erase his Jewish identity.

On what is happening vis-à-vis antisemitism today, Bruni said, “I really feel terrible. I thought it was over. I thought we learned something from the past, but obviously someone is sort of canceling the past. Also, the historical past. People don't know what happened anymore, as if we forgot what happened. All my friends that are Jewish don't feel safe anymore. People are changing their name when they're ordering Uber or when they're ordering a pizza. I would never think that this would happen, never, and they're basically all leaving France.”

Asked by Tishby what she thinks the Jewish community should do in times like this, Bruni replied that they should “resist” through education and talking.

Well they also have to start pushing back against Islamic indoctrination, and show the courage for doing so. And they also have to condemn magazine writers who take blame-the-victim positions, and that includes "kapos" who use their ethnic background as a shield for what they're doing.

USA state secretary Marco Rubio followed up on this news by warning that Europe is not just destroying their culture, they're also wearing security links with the USA:

Secretary of State Marco Rubio has warned that Europe risks destroying the “shared culture” of the West and in turn weaken bonds with the United States.

At a press briefing from the Department of State in Washington DC on Friday, Secretary of State Rubio doubled down on the assertions made in the White House’s National Security Strategy memo, which declared that Europe faces “civilizational erasure” if it continues globalist policies of mass migration and attacks on fundamental liberties such as freedom of speech.

The memo has riled feathers in Europe, with German Chancellor Friedrich Merz saying that many aspects of the document were “unacceptable to us from a European perspective”. Meanwhile, the unelected head of the European Commission — the executive arm of the EU — Ursula von der Leyen demanded that the United States not “interfere” in European democracy.

Responding to the pushback, Secretary Rubio said on Friday: “You go to these NATO meetings and you meet with people, what they will tell you our shared history, our shared legacy, our shared values, our shared priorities. That’s what they talk about as the reason for this alliance.

“Well, if you erase your shared history, your shared culture, your shared ideology, your shared priorities, your shared principles, then what – then you just have a straight-up defense agreement. That’s all you have.”

One that may not even exist any longer as a result of leading to a caliphate on European soil. Something vital to consider is that if an Islamic caliphate is established in Europe one day, it could lead to multiple times the danger Iran's nuclear development imposes, and still does. They can't go easy on Europe's governments, based on how they continue to drag the quality of life down with them for the sake of Islamofascism.

Update: see also this article and this one too on how Iran's tyrants are still not willing to surrender.

Update 2: a new poll's discovered that 1 in 3 Muslims in France want sharia applied globally.

More of the Mamdani effect in motion, at NYC schools

A Holocaust survivor was denied a chance to give a speech at a New York school, because the principal didn't like his messages:

The principal of a Brooklyn middle school created controversy this week by turning down the opportunity to have a Holocaust survivor speak to students.

Mayor Eric Adams said in a statement Thursday that he has met with that survivor, Sami Steigmann, in the past, and that "he is absolutely the right person to speak with kids about the atrocities of the Holocaust."

The snubbing of Sami Steigmann

Last month, a parent in the Boerum Hill section of the borough wrote Arin Rusch, the principal of Middle School 447, asking to bring Steigmann in as a speaker, saying he's "very relatable, especially with youth."

Rusch responded, in part, "We've had Holocaust survivors speak in the past," adding, "It can really help build empathy and counter antisemitism."

However, she also said, "In looking at his website materials, I also don't think that Sami's presentation is right for our public school setting, given his messages around Israel and Palestine. I'd love to explore other possible speakers."

"I wish I was able to talk to her to find out why she feels that way, what is the reason, because just being proud of being Jewish does not disqualify me to be a speaker," Steigmann said.

Based on what the principal brings up, it's clear on the one hand, she buys into the palestine propaganda as an Arab/Islamic state hook, line and sinker, and it wouldn't be shocking if she'd refuse to accept it was all a concoction of the Roman empire in remote times. On the other hand, she doubtless despises Mr. Steigman's respect for the actual country his ancestry originated from, and believes he's not allowed to be proud of his ethnicity. On which note:

On Steigmann's website, aside from two Q&A slides that have the Israeli flag as the backdrop, slide number 57 explains Zionism. One bullet point reads, "No other state would accept Jews before Israel was created, during the time of the Holocaust and beyond."

No doubt, she also opposes anything to do with Zionism, which is just a synonym for patriotism and nationalism. And this is also obviously the Zohran Mamdani effect, even before he's begun his term of office as NYC's first Muslim mayor.

Moshe Spern is the president of United Jewish Teachers.

"There seems to be a movement of separating Jews from Israel and now there seems to be a movement of separating the Holocaust from Jews and separating the Holocaust from Israel," Spern said. "We cannot allow New York City to continue down a path that censors and shuts out Jews for their viewpoints and especially Holocaust survivors."

I would also strongly recommend making a similar case for Armenian historians on Turkey's genocide during WW1, and 911 Families/survivors, who're doubtless censored and blacklisted by many school systems too in New York. Sadly, this is bound to get worse under the incoming Mamdani, and victims of October 7, 2023 could also be blacklisted.

In the meantime, the NY Post notes that without a doubt, Mamdani will also cancel an anti-BDS order issued by outgoing mayor Eric Adams. And while NY governor Kathy Hochul may have distanced herself from Mamdani's positions, it wouldn't be shocking if she took no proper action to prevent him from destroying NYC as he's bound to do soon enough.
