A man with an Israeli flag was arrested for his own safety at a pro-Palestinian rally in Sydney. “He was arrested to prevent a breach of the peace for his safety, he was removed and released,” NSW Police Assistant Commissioner Tony Cooke said. He added that the man “was able to collect his flag from Sydney City Command.” Israel has declared war for the first time in 50 years. At least 260 bodies were recovered from a music festival, just one of the places attacked by Hamas near the Gaza strip.

The Queering of America
0 replies
For most Americans, labels such as “gay,” “non-binary,” and even “members of the LGBTQ+ community” are generally used interchangeably to describe those preferring same sex partners. This imprecision suffices for ordinary conversation, but it fails to capture a key political distinction among today’s homosexuals, namely those embracing the label “queer.”
The label “queer” may appear new, but it is decades old. In his 1995 book Saint Foucault: Towards a Gay Hagiography, David Halperin explains:
As the very word implies, ‘queer’ does not name some natural kind or refer to some determinate object; it acquires its meaning from its oppositional relation to the norm. Queer is … at odds with the normal,
Why are the Islamic jihad groups fighting against Israel? Why do they think that committing the dismaying actions we saw in Israel on Saturday is the right, and indeed the righteous, thing to do? As the death toll from Saturday’s jihad massacres in Israel continues to mount, the world looks on in horror at the atrocities that were committed — the wanton massacre of people at a peace concert, the beheaded babies, and so much more. It is hard for Americans and Europeans to fathom how or why any human beings would do such things.
Now, however, two jihad groups, including the one that was behind the massacres, Hamas,
After Hamas' surprise attack on Israel that has led to a formal declaration of war in the Middle East, a lot of attention has justifiably been given to the most recent deal the Democrats made with Iran - giving the mullahs access to $6 billion that had been frozen and sending some of their militants we'd apprehended back to Iran. But much more attention needs to be focused on Rob Malley, who was Biden's Iran Envoy until his security clearance was suspended in April amid allegations of mishandling classified information that are under investigation by the FBI. That attention is now coming, with the House Oversight &
Hamas, the terrorist group that launched the bloody and devastating weekend attack on Israel, is reportedly calling for rallies around the world on Friday in support of its anti-Semitic terrorism. This comes as experts highlight the increasing number of terrorists and potential terrorists illegally entering America. (X) The Times of Israel reported on Tuesday, ”The Hamas terror group calls for mass rallies in the West Bank, Jerusalem, and throughout the Arab and Muslim world on Friday in support of its fight against Israel.” But Hamas’s actual words indicate a desire for pro-jihad rallies not just in Israel or in Muslim countries, but everywhere around the globe.
Happy Thursday, dear Kruiser Morning Briefing friends. (Snip) Yesterday, we focused on just a couple of Democrat ne’er-do-wells who have a deep and abiding affection for terrorists like the Hamas cowards who attacked Israel last weekend. More than enough time has passed for all of the other Democrats in the country to separate themselves from and disavow the likes of the execrable Rashida Tlaib and Ilhan Omar, the two most prominent terrorist appeasers in Congress.
There has been some of that here and there, but not enough to convey a sincere break from the evildoers of the world. As we’ve discussed a couple of times this week,

US president has pledged to give new military assistance to Israel and said the attack by Hamas on Saturday was the 'deadliest day for Jews since the Holocaust'. Speaking at a Jewish community event in Washington DC, Biden reiterated that he backed Israel but also called on Israel prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu to 'operate by the rules of war'. At least 1,100 Israelis have died since Hamas launched a deadly attack on Israel on Saturday, and at least 1,100 Palestinians were killed in Israel's retaliation

When the shock from the Hamas terror invasion of southern Israel wore off, my first thought was, “WTAF were they thinking?” I did not use an acronym. I was in front of my sink, putting toothpaste on my toothbrush, and I just blurted out all the words. What we’ve learned since Saturday morning’s bloodfest has only grown worse, including reports of 40 murdered babies — several of whom had been beheaded. There are still too many scenes around the West, like Tuesday night in Georgetown, where student protestors could be heard chanting “From the river to the sea” and “Long live the Intifada.” The latter is a call for
Locking the Door: The Israeli Dilemma
0 replies
Recently I hired a locksmith to change the rather shaky locks on the front and back doors of our house, increasingly necessary as we live in a high-theft neighborhood. The front door lock tended to catch from time to time and had to be forced shut. The back door giving on a fenced patio was a trickier affair, secured by a vertical sliding lever that did not inspire confidence. Following a robbery and a break-in, I belatedly realized I could no longer fall back on my habitual laziness and complacency. Criminals don’t go on vacation. To my surprise, the locksmith turned out to be an Israeli who immigrated to Canada
Passengers have started to re-enter Luton Airport after a major fire resulted in the suspension of all flights until this afternoon.
Travellers are beginning to enter the terminal with planes expected to take off and land from 3pm following the partial collapse of a multi-storey car park on Tuesday night.
More than 100 firefighters were scrambled to the airport after a diesel car caught fire and spread to other vehicles, causing a “significant structural collapse” in the building.
In a statement issued two hours before the first planes are expected to depart, Luton Airport said emergency services will remain at the scene as a precaution.
It said: “The teams have worked
Happy Wednesday, dear Kruiser Morning Briefing friends. (Snip) As we have discussed here a few times, Democrats often struggle with identifying who the real bad guys are in a conflict. Sure, they had a moment of clarity after 9/11, but that was all too fleeting. They have spent most of the two-plus decades since running interference or being flat-out apologists for anyone with a suicide vest.
For the longest time, the Democrats at least managed to keep the most virulent anti-Semitic voices among them out of national office. When Minnesota sent Keith Ellison to Congress in 2007, he would at least try to be coy about his true feelings.
Joe Is Asleep, America. You're on Your Own.

Hamas’s attack on Israel should be a wake-up call for Sleepy Joe’s America. Joe Biden, a man whose entire government apparatus has turned domestic political protesters into terrorists but who finances and arms real foreign terrorists, isn’t on your side. A president who applauds releasing criminals early from jails and prisons in America — if they’re even arrested in the first place — isn’t on your side. If he then leaves America’s back door open to let in millions of strangers freed from the world’s prisons so they can pour into your neighborhood, then he’s really not on your side. A leader who does all of this

Over a dozen business executives are joining the call to blacklist the Harvard students who put out a statement that blamed Israel for the Hamas attack, while the group whined about being persecuted in the aftermath.
CEOs from EasyHealth, Belong, FabFitFun, Inspired, DoveHill and many more joined billionaire hedge fund manager Bill Ackman in the charge of outing the members of 31 student organizations who issued the statement on Sunday.
Ackman said, 'One should not be able to hide behind a corporate shield when issuing statements supporting the actions of terrorists, who, we now learn, have beheaded babies, among other inconceivably despicable acts.'
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York is naming Christian fundamentalism as a key driver of the ongoing conflict between Israel and Palestine, pointing to recent US actions in the region.
Speaking on local New York radio station Hot 97/WQHT on Thursday morning, the progressive Democratic congresswoman argued that the conflict was not simply the result of Islamic fundamentalism and Israeli extremism.
"It's not just Islamic, it's not just Jewish, it is also Christian," said Ocasio-Cortez. "In the United States of America, Christian fundamentalism and nationalism — which has also been extremely anti-Semitic — has also aligned itself with some of the most right-wing and authoritarian and inflammatory powers in the region."

Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA), who was dressed in a hoodie and gym shorts, appeared on 'The Late Show' with host Stephen Colbert on Wednesday accompanied by a tablet to assist him. "Sometimes you literally just can't believe these people are making the decisions that are determining the government here," Fetterman said. "It's actually scary too," he added. COLBERT: Is it awkward to be in the Capitol and then run into people that you have put up a devastating meme about because you have excellent meme game. But then you have to see these people in the cafeteria. FETTERMAN: You all
Encampment-overrun Denver is set to break ground on the first of many micro-communities designed to house the homeless - with 1,000 taxpayer-funded homes set to open by the end of the year. The site, located on S. Santa Fe Drive, is one of 11 being propped up by the famously progressive city, which is currently in the midst of an unprecedented homelessness crisis. Worsening matters is the fact the homeless are not exactly roughing it - with tent-laden processions complete with furniture and other amenities now a common sight in the Mile High City.
Harvard students who blamed Israel for the massacre of its citizens by Hamas had their own future thrown into doubt last night as a host of blue chip CEOs declared them unemployable.
The elite university faced a massive backlash after 31 of its student societies issued a joint statement ‘holding the Israeli regime entirely responsible for all unfolding violence’.
The Anti-Defamation League denounced the statement as ‘anti-Semitic’ and others accused the university of tolerating hate speech.But Wall Street appears even less forgiving with billionaire hedge fund manager Bill Ackman revealing that his fellow bosses want to know who they are so ‘none of us inadvertently hire any of their members’.
Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., criticized Israel on Wednesday for cutting off electricity, fuel, food and water to residents in the Gaza Strip, calling it a "serious violation of international law."
"The targeting of civilians is a war crime, no matter who does it. Israel’s blanket denial of food, water, and other necessities to Gaza is a serious violation of international law and will do nothing but harm innocent civilians," said Sanders.
Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant on Monday ordered a "complete siege" on Gaza following the killing and kidnapping of civilians in southern Israel by Hamas terrorist fighters on Saturday. "We are fighting against human animals, and we act accordingly," he said.
In a time when Americans in Israel are relying on their government for support and protection, the U.S. State Department’s Consular Affairs Crisis Management System (CACMS) has left many American citizens hanging in the wind, demanding them to sign promissory notes as a precondition for any assistance in evacuating from the crisis-hit region.
The so-called “assisted departure options” were outlined in an email sent to American citizens stranded in the Middle Eastern nation, stating that the U.S. government would offer loans for transportation.
The Biden regime’s assistance to Americans wishing to depart Israel will come at a financial cost.
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has broken with members of her far-left 'squad' of Democrat lawmakers to condemn the 'unacceptable' Pro-Palestine rallies in NYC.
'It should not be hard to shut down hatred and antisemitism where we see it,' AOC said in a statement Monday. 'That is a core tenet of solidarity. The bigotry and callousness expressed in Times Square on Sunday were unacceptable and harmful in this devastating moment.'
A pro-Palestinian mob took over Times Square on Sunday - just one day after terrorist organization Hamas launches its assault on Israel that has left more than 1,000 people dead.

University of Wisconsin Women’s basketball coach Marisa Moseley bemoaned “run-of-the-mill” white kids on her team.
“If you look at my team, you know, we’re pretty much the United Nations. I have the first Indian woman to ever play at the Power 5. I have kids who are Nigerian and kids who are Dominican and kids who are Mexican and kids who are run of the mill white because they’re still there too,” Moseley said.
As soon as she realized she , “My mom is white just so nobody is offended. My mom is a white woman from the Berkshires. Very white.”

Walt Disney Company CEO Bob Iger has reportedly been left “overwhelmed and exhausted” by the challenge of righting the ship at the Mouse House, whose tanking stock price has spurred activist investor Nelson Peltz to further boost his stake in the firm.
People in Iger’s inner circle told Bloomberg News that the CEO, who recently returned to helm the company with great fanfare after the disastrous tenure of his handpicked successor, Bob Chapek, has often joked to confidantes: “Why did I come back?” Peltz, who called off his proxy fight with Disney in February after Iger committed to a $5.5 billion cost-cutting spree which included laying off 7,000 employees,
The reaction to the Hamas attack on Israel by left wing college students has been horrible and Harvard is no exception.Several student groups at Harvard University have withdrawn their signatures from a controversial document blaming Israel as “entirely responsible” for the Hamas terror attack on Israeli civilians, following intense backlash.
Dozens of student groups from the elite school signed a letter blaming Israel and supporting Palestine, which is represented by Hamas.
The public reaction to this has been near-universal disgust, and now these Harvard students are starting to worry about their future employment prospects.
