The Horror of an Iranian Nuclear Weapon
Posted By: Mercedes44, 8/1/2024 7:14:34 AM
Iran has hardly been shy about articulating its genocidal objectives against Israel. Iran's newly elected President Masoud Pezeshkian, in early July, reaffirmed "Tehran's dedication to destroying Israel." This aim, he added, is "rooted in the fundamental policies of the Islamic Republic." The question, therefore, is what exactly is to be done to prevent a nuclear catastrophe initiated by Iran, one that could arrive at any moment?"In the Middle East, Iran is virtually behind all the terrorism.... When he founded the Islamic Republic, Ayatollah Khomeini pledged, 'We will export our revolution to the entire world. We will export the Islamic revolution to the entire world'...

The Dow plummeted more than 800 points, and the Nasdaq was set to plunge into a correction on Friday, falling more than 10% from its July peak after weak employment numbers aggravated worries of a slowdown in the US economy, while Amazon and Intel’s downbeat forecasts dampened sentiment.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average slumped 918 points, or 2.3%, to 39,429. The S&P 500 dropped 2.5%, and the Nasdaq slid 2.8%.
The S&P 500 hit its lowest level since July 11 and the Dow was on track for its biggest two-day percentage fall since early March 2023.

A Mississippi congressman proposed a bill that would revoke Donald Trump’s Secret Service detail. Now that Republicans are calling for his removal from the committee investigating the assassination attempt, the Democrat is downplaying how the bill would threaten the former president’s safety.
Rep. Bennie Thompson, D-Miss., introduced the Denying Infinite Security and Government Resources Allocated toward Convicted and Extremely Dishonorable (DISGRACED) Former Protectees Act in April, which would revoke Secret Service protection for those sentenced following conviction for a federal or state felony with a prison term.
Georgia has been on Donald Trump’s mind since his achingly close margin of defeat there in 2020. This time around, polls suggest he won’t need a post-election phone call to state election officials to find him the votes — he’s gaining the votes he needs to win all on his own.
The former president had maintained a continuous lead in the RealClearPolitics polling average over the incumbent president here since last year. Joe Biden hadn’t led in a single poll since November. Had he stayed in the race, its outcome was nearly a foregone conclusion.
Vice President Kamala Harris’ entry into the contest has only served to narrow Trump’s polling lead.
Secretary of State Antony Blinken on Thursday condemned the “deeply flawed” Venezuelan election results that said the opposition candidate did not win.
In a statement, Blinken said the United States applauds the 12 million Venezuelan people who participated in the July 28 presidential election but said President Nicolás Maduro was not the real winner. The National Electoral Council (CNE) declared Maduro the winner, despite not publishing precinct-level results from the voting machines.
In remarks to a Catholic group, JD Vance attacked Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez for having “a sociopathic attitude” about families and children.
“One of the politicians that I criticised is AOC,” said Vance in 2021, while campaigning for the US Senate seat in Ohio he would win the following year.
“Maybe AOC hasn’t found the right person, whatever the case may be. AOC has said basically – if you look at her public remarks on this – that it’s immoral to have children because of climate change concerns. Right? This is, let’s just be direct, a sociopathic attitude towards family.”
North Dakota Gov. Doug Burgum (R) said he thinks that Russia agreed to the prisoner swap announced Thursday because they think former President Trump is “going to win” the upcoming election.
Burgum joined Fox News Channel’s Dana Perino and Bill Hemmer on Thursday where he said it was a “day of gratitude and celebration” that Wall Street Journal reporter Evan Gershkovich and former Marine Paul Whelan were able to return home. “The reason why Russia wanted to do the deal now is that they think that President Trump’s gonna win and they don’t want to deal with him,” Burgum said in comments highlighted by Mediaite.

Who the heck came up with the vile idea of letting Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, architect of 9/11, off with a plea deal?
J.D. Vance, a combat veteran of the George Bush-led wars set off as a result of that act, said what a lot of us would like to hear said, according to Fox News:
During a campaign speech Wednesday in Glendale, Arizona, Trump campaign vice presidential candidate Sen. JD Vance slammed the plea deal taken by three of the terrorists behind the Sept. 11 terror attacks awaiting trial in Guantánamo Bay, Cuba.
The White House on Thursday trumpeted what it called a “joyous day” as Wall Street Journal reporter Evan Gershkovich and former Marine Paul Whelan were released as part of a major prisoner swap with Russia.
The exchange of prisoners involved several countries in addition to the U.S. and Russia and comes after Gershkovich had been sentenced to 16 years in prison in what American officials called a sham trial. Whelan was arrested in 2018 and later convicted on spying charges that he and his family have denied.
It’s easy to fall for the media’s uber-hype and begin to imagine the unthinkable -- that Kamala Harris can actually win. The opposite conclusion is accurate. She represents a perfect storm forming that will permanently collapse her party's burning house.
A happy set of circumstances brought us here.
The first was Joe Biden’s path to victory in 2020, which began in South Carolina during the Democratic primaries.
In a deal with Rep. James Clyburn, the necessary votes were delivered to Biden in exchange for appointing both a Black female vice president and Supreme Court justice.
On Saturday afternoon, a Hezbollah rocket fired from southern Lebanon struck a soccer field in the village of Majdal Shams in Israel’s north, killing 12 children.
For the last 10 months, many have warned that Israel is on the brink of a major war with Hezbollah, the Iranian proxy terror group that controls southern Lebanon. But the truth is that Hezbollah has been fighting—and winning—in Israel’s north since October 8. Since that time, Hezbollah has essentially redrawn the northern border of Israel by pummeling the border towns daily with rockets, leaving 225 square miles unlivable for Israelis and displacing around 80,000 Israeli citizens.
President Trump was invited by the Black Journalists of America to be a guest at a debate or conversation with his opponent.
But no opponent showed up; it was a set-up … that’s what the left does.
ABC’s Rachel Scott submarined the former president right off the bat. She was arrogant, rude, and so unserious. She was just a hit-person, disrespectful and oozing contempt. Like the rest of the left, she didn't play fair. But, no matter, Trump can handle himself with far more aplomb and respect for his interrogators than those on the left ever do.

Forty-six seconds. That was the sum total of time a female Italian boxer lasted in the ring at the Paris Olympics before she retired from a bout against against an Algerian fighter caught in an eligibility furore.
Twenty-five-year-old Imane Khalif was cleared to compete at the 2024 Olympics having earlier failed an unspecified testosterone level test. The contest Thursday between the mismatched pugilists shone fresh light on the controversy about athletes with abnormally high testosterone levels or other male characteristics being allowed to enter women’s sporting categories.
This is a very significant policy proposal. President Trump is supporting a position that Seniors should not pay taxes on Social Security income.This comes on the heels of President Trump supported policy that income received from service tips should not be taxed.
Combined, both of these policies would result in massive numbers of middle-class Americans having more money in their bank accounts. The national economic benefits of these two combined policies are extremely significant and could actually offset the financial damage done by Joe Biden.
The timing of this announcement coincides with President Trump visiting Chicago.
SENIORS SHOULD NOT PAY TAX ON SOCIAL SECURITY!
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed Wins in the End

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed was the principal organizer of the September 11 attacks that killed around 3,000 Americans. He has been held prisoner at Guantanamo Bay for more than two decades. Yesterday the Biden administration announced that it has reached a “plea deal” with KSM and two high-ranking al Qaeda confederates:
“In exchange for removal of the death penalty as a possible punishment, these three Accused have agreed to plead guilty to all of the charged offenses, including the murder of the 2,976 people listed in the charge sheet,”
Earlier today, David looked at the results of the first boxing match at the Olympic Games in Paris where a man was allowed to fight a woman because he "identifies" as being female. This is a subject that we previewed at length here yesterday. Unfortunately, the fight was allowed to proceed and Imane Khelif was matched up against female Italian boxer Angela Carini. As predicted by many, including yours truly, the fight didn't even last one minute into the first round. The referee declared a technical knockout after 46 seconds. Kheif came out and hit Carini so hard that her headgear was dislodged by the first blow.
The Republican National Committee unanimously voted on Holocaust Remembrance Day to pass a resolution condemning anti-Semitism. This resolution provides strong evidence of the Party and its leader, Donald J. Trump’s stance towards Jews. Nevertheless, if the Party leaders expect a positive response from the Jewish community in November, they may be disappointed.
For years, Donald Trump has been tirelessly trying to gain support from American Jews. In the current campaign, he is emphasizing his unparalleled support for Israel and highlighting the Biden administration’s inconsistent approach to Israel’s conflict with Hamas. In an interview on Real America’s Voice on April 8, 2024, Mr. Trump asserted that “any Jewish individual who casts
Critics of Vice President Kamala Harris claim she was only picked to be President Joe Biden’s running mate because of her race and the left’s goal of checking its DEI boxes.
Former President Donald Trump pointed just that out to a crowd during the National Association of Black Journalists (NABJ).
"I've known her for a long time, indirectly, not directly… and she was always of Indian heritage, and she was only promoting Indian heritage," Trump said. "I didn't know she was Black until a number of years ago when she happened to turn Black. And now she wants to be known as Black.
PARIS – Algerian boxer Imane Khelif, who failed a gender eligibility test last year, won her opening bout at the Paris Olympics in just 46 seconds on Thursday against her distraught opponent.
Khelif advanced to the quarterfinals of the women's 66kg category after unloading two strong punches on Angela Carini, who shrugged off attempts by the Algerian to shake her hand and collapsed to her knees in floods of tears.
An Italian coach said Carini had suffered a badly hurt nose and the official decision was listed as an abandonment.
Khelif and Taiwan's Lin Yu-ting, who fights on Friday at 57kg, were disqualified from the world championships
Wall Street Journal reporter Evan Gershkovich finally touched down on US soil late Thursday night after spending more than a year in a hellish Russian prison — and becoming the first American journalist to be arrested for alleged spying since the Cold War.
The 32-year-old journalist — along with freed hostages Paul Whelan and Alsu Kurmasheva — landed at Joint Base Andrews in Maryland, where they were greeted by President Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris.
The brave reporter shook hands with Biden and Harris as he briefly spoke with them and gave the commander in chief a hug before he was surrounded by jubilant family members for their long-awaited emotional reunion.
Vice President Kamala Harris said Friday she is “honored to be the presumptive Democratic nominee” after she collected enough delegates in online voting to earn the nomination.
“I will officially accept your nomination next week, once the virtual voting process is closed, but I’m happy to know we have enough delegates to secure the nomination,” Harris reportedly told her supporters in a call on Friday.
The deadline for delegates to submit their virtual ballots is Monday, but
Kyle Rittenhouse used a social media video message to announce he will not vote for Donald Trump in the upcoming presidential election.
Instead, Rittenhouse says he will write in Ron Paul for president.
Rittenhouse, the Outreach Director for Texas Gun Rights, said, “Unfortunately, Donald Trump had bad advisors, making him bad on the Second Amendment, and that is my issue.”
He added, “If you cannot be completely uncompromisable on the Second Amendment, I will not vote for you, and I will write somebody else in. We need champions for the Second Amendment or our rights would be eaten away and eroded each day. I support my decision and I have no takebacks.”
A grieving Las Vegas mother has been left 'dumbfounded and in shock' after four bullies who were caught on camera beating her son to death accepted plea deals.
Melissa Ready lost her son Jonathan Lewis, 17, after he was attacked by a group of teens and stomped to the point of unconsciousness, before dying a week later.
Dontral Beaver, 16, Damian Hernandez, 18, Treavion Randolph, 16, and Gianni Robinson all stood accused of his murder after being charged as adults in January.
On Thursday, it was announced that they all accepted a plea deal that will allow them to plead guilty as juveniles to manslaughter.
Kamala Harris “throws around F-bombs” and constantly berated her staff when she was California Attorney General, according to a shocking report.
An unearthed 2019 op-ed from professor Terry McAteer published in California newspaper The Union describes the “eye-opening” month his son Gregory spent as an intern for Harris, now the presumptive Democratic nominee for president.
McAteer, a Democrat with generational political ties to the party, claimed his son was subjected to a “side of Kamala Harris which the general public does not know”.
