Watch: Unhinged Pro-Hamas Woman Finds
Out Threatening City Council Members Isn't
a Good Idea

We've seen a lot of wild actions from the pro-Hamas crew. But even by their standards, the actions employed by a woman at a Bakersfield, California, city council meeting were particularly unhinged. Riddhi Patel (who some media said identified as "non-binary") started off slow, saying she was there to push for a ceasefire resolution. She also spoke about some other issues. But it began to go downhill when she told the council they were "horrible people." Ordinarily, most people would know it's not a great idea to threaten people right to their faces at a city council meeting--on video and in front of

Patel is a common Indian name. Why would she/he/it care about the Middle East situation?

They remain in police custody on $2 million bond.'' Knock me over with a feather! So there's a Judge out there in Bakersfield with a set of clankers! Will Kamamamala raise bail for the skank?

Yeah, "Patel." It is a Hindu-Indian name, coming from Sanskrit. Last time I looked, India handled a portion of their Muslim problem with with a "two-state solution. What is now Pakistan (and Bangladesh) used to be predominately Muslim parts of India. But India still has a large Muslim population that acts pretty much as Muslims do and, has been influencing Hindu culture since at least the Mughal empire. Ms. Patel should take her act to downtown Dehli and see how it plays.

If you can't state your position without expletive language and threatening violence against others, then you don't have a valid case. She is so unhinged that the law better assume she is serious in her threats and should keep her locked up. If she made threats like that toward the people/groups she thinks she is defending, being locked up for a while in jail would be the least of what would happen to her. Something rotten is being planted in the minds of too many young people in this country if they think Israel doesn't have the right to defend itself when attacked by Hamas terrorists. Their goal in life is to kill all Jews. Do the protestors really think that should happen and do they realize that is what they are promoting in their protests?

''You don't care about what happens in Palestine''. No, we don't. We are not the least bit concerned about what happens in a fictitious non-existent country. British mandate Palestine was not a country, but a province of the British Empire, it ceased to exist post 1948 by UN treaty. Prior to Britain it was part of the Ottoman Empire for hundreds of years. Post WWI the Sykes-Picot Treaty Turkish held Syria, Palestine, Lebanon, and Iraq were ceded to France and Britain. The inhabitants are Arabs, not Palestinians.

In 410AD, the city of Rome was sacked by the Visigoths under their king, Alaric. The Germanic tribes had invaded Italy and laid siege to the Eternal City, eventually breaking in and putting Rome to the sack. Now, today, the United States faces some implacable enemies. Still, there is a difference between Rome in 410 and the U.S. in 2024: Our enemies are already within the city walls, and the civic leadership seems unwilling to do anything about it. On Saturday, "anti-war activists" gathered in a Teamster's Union hall in Chicago.

The Iranian regime on Saturday launched a massive and unprecedented attack on Israel, firing over 300 projectiles, including drones, cruise missiles, and ballistic missiles, toward the Jewish state. It was the first time that Iran attacked Israel from its own territory, though the attack also relied on its proxies in Lebanon, Syria, and Yemen. Thanks to an impressive joint response from Israel and the U.S. (with help from allies including Jordan), nearly all of the projectiles were intercepted — even over Jerusalem, Israel’s capital. There was minimal damage to an Israeli air base, which remained functional, and sadly a seven-year-old girl from a Bedouin village suffered

Beirut, Lebanon — A decades-long shadow war burst out into the open overnight as Iranian drones and missiles lit up the night sky in Israel and the occupied West Bank. Tehran’s operation was highly choreographed, apparently designed to minimize casualties while maximizing spectacle. This was a complex mission. Over 300 drones and missiles navigated above Iran’s neighbors, including Jordan and Iraq — both with US military bases — before penetrating the airspace of Iran’s mortal enemy, Israel. Israel’s allies helped shoot down the bulk of these weapons, but couldn’t prevent what was long believed to be the Middle East’s doomsday scenario, the Islamic Republic’s first-ever attack on Israel.

Iran’s Islamic Revolution Guard Corps (IRGC) commander, General Hossein Salami, on Sunday applauded the drone and missile attack on Israel, lauding it as more successful than expected before warning against any retaliation from the Jewish state or its allies. Salami’s boast came despite the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) saying it had intercepted the “majority” of the “dozens” of drones and cruise missiles sent to attack Israel, though a few hit targets, including an IDF base, as Breitbart News reported. Overall a swarm of over 300 drones, cruise missiles, and ballistic missiles were used in air assault by Tehran. Israel’s air defense systems were backed by assets from the U.S., U.K., and Jordan

Israel and its coalition partners in the Middle East successfully defended against an unprecedented Iranian attack featuring hundreds of drones and missiles soaring into Israeli airspace. The Israel Defense Forces said early Sunday morning Iran launched 170 drones, more than 30 cruise missiles, and more than 120 ballistic missiles, with over 99 percent of them getting intercepted. Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari called the defense “a very significant strategic success” as only a small fraction of them reached Israel itself. A seven-year-old girl suffered severe injuries from shrapnel that fell directly onto her home. She was rushed to the hospital and underwent emergency surgery for a head

After the missile and drone attack launched by Iran against Israel on Saturday, one can assume the Pentagon is concerned about an expansion of this hot war. The question of how much Joe Biden and his puppet master, Barack Obama, care remains unanswered, however (where is that Rashid Khalidi tape anyway, LA Times?). Biden's persistent undermining of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and the president's political left flank calling for Bibi's ouster during a war have been politically punctilious, outrageous, and deflating. They telegraph the administration's antipathy toward the Israeli leader and desire for him to fail in his country's quest for survival.

The U.S. military has shot down an unspecified number of drones fired by Iran targeting Israel, according to a defense official. Iran launched a significant number of drones and missiles toward Israel on Saturday in retaliation for an Israeli airstrike that killed a senior Iranian military leader at the Iranian Consulate in Damascus, Syria. The attack, which Iranian leaders had threatened to carry out since the April 1 strike, is ongoing as of Saturday night and into the early hours of Sunday. “In accordance with our ironclad commitment to Israel’s security, U.S. forces in the region continue to shoot down Iranian-launched drones targeting Israel,” the official said. “Our forces remain

On Saturday, Iran initiated a barrage of drones and ballistic missiles at Israel. Thankfully, most of them were successfully intercepted, causing minimal damage. Of course, in a stunning move, President Biden is pushing Israel not to retaliate. It's hard to imagine why Biden would do that, except when you consider that Joe Biden has been appeasing Iran since his days as Barack Obama vice president. With that in mind, it's also not surprising—though it's still shocking— that Joe Biden not only had prior knowledge of Iran's assault on Israel but also technically gave it the green light under certain conditions, according to a report from the Jerusalem Post.

But that seems to be of no avail to him now that he’s become a target for the Left and Jihadists acting in coalition.

While Trump, who did not participate in debates for the Republican nomination, has indicated a willingness to take on his 2020 rival, the Democratic president has not committed to debating him again. Although invitations have not been formally issued, the news organizations said it was not too early for each campaign to say publicly that it will participate in the three presidential and one vice presidential forums set by the nonpartisan Commission on Presidential Debates.
