"I Am A Father"
Gorgeous, life-affirming story out of Israel.
Imagine if it were America. That baby could have killed and sold in pieces.

Brilliant: Radicals and Moderates
"Subversive organizations operate through incremental radicalization. The average American liberal of twenty years ago would not have supported half of what he vocally advocates for today. Even Obama and Hillary were against gay marriage when they ran for office. In a few years they moved from opposing a policy to threatening to prosecute those opposed to it."
Must Read: Exposing the Palestinian Culture of Death
This is an excellent article.
I think that all of the believers in the Church of Palestinianism do understand exactly what they are swimming in: the nihilistic, anti-Jewish, anti-Western cult of death.
However, there is likely a small number of individuals who have bought into the narrative out of 'good intentions' and a profound lack of historical or political knowledge. It is certainly worth trying to reach this group.
As Liebler says:
"Ironically, the weakness of our position lies in the fact that, until recently, in order to appease our allies and “protect” Israelis from being confronted with the stark reality, we deliberately held back from telling the truth and failed to highlight the barbaric and criminal nature of our purported peace partner."
"Had we mounted campaigns at the outset, exposing the horrors perpetrated by our neighbors, it may not have influenced anti-Semites and the delusional Left but it would have made a significant impact on the open-minded."

Possibly.
The primary thing that I feel that Jews and Israel are inferior at, is actually being better at exposing alternatives to the death cult than death cultists are at brainwashing their own brethren (and assorted useful idiots and fans). I'm not convinced that every single young person in the Middle East wishes to be a part of the death cult and that every single one has Jew-hatred running through their veins. Quite the contrary. There are likely many wishing to be free. But they have no support in the Western world right now. And I believe that the Western world has further failed civilization because it lacks the will to be stronger, to be confident about being better, and has lost the will to identify and crush evil.
We don't need "hasbara" i.e explaining how good we are. And we don't need redundant spokespeople talking about how bad "they" are. We need only to show how we are better and stronger, we need only to believe that once again. We once had that will, that spirit only a few short decades ago.
We have lost that skill right now. We have lost our way.
Our civilization is so precious and so fragile.
I worry about the future.

TSA Security Kabuki: Fire. Them. All.
A nine-year old with a pacemaker is on the TSA sh&t list.
Fire. Them. All.
Fire. Them. All.
"One of the TSA agents told me they'd prevented terrorist attacks using nine-year-old boys with pacemakers and children before, so I laughed and said, 'Oh when?'
"At that point, the TSA agent became very quiet and said, 'Oh we're not at liberty to discuss this.''
What a massive, steamy pile of dog squeeze.

Liberals and the Embrace of American Values
The whole article is interesting and well-said, but this is for me the main point when people try to compare other waves of immigration to the current migrant tidal wave in Europe and, to a lesser degree in North America and other parts of the Western world:
"Hasidic Jews do not bring down buildings. When we act like twenty-first-century Islamic immigration is tantamount to Catholic and Jewish immigration of the early twentieth century, we are doing reality and history a disservice."

A Very Busy Time
Thanks all for checking in.
This is a very busy time for me personally for a number of reasons, so blogging has to take the back burner for the time being. I'll post when I have a the odd free moment here and there.
As things settle down, posting will be more regular.

Eurabia is Doomed!
Some random, thoroughly gloomy links for you this fine day:
Sweden-going to hell, and I can't say I'm terribly broken up about it.
Migrant problems still plaguing Europe. Yup-one for the "DUH" file.
The Dutch Jewish community is "unsustainable". Another one for the "DUH" file.
Germany struggles with over 1,000 "child brides", as calls for ban grow. Umm...what's a "child bride". Isn't that pedophilia? Why does anyone call them "child brides" for goodnessssssake???
Don't call these horribly abused little girls "child brides". There is no such thing in a civilized society. There are children, who are being abused by adults. Period.
"It's Your Fault I Killed"-a horrendous, eye opening article on the narcissism of murderers (secular and religious). Of course this is not just a European phenomenon, but the article focuses on some high profile European crimes.
France: First the Saturday people, then the Sunday people.
"Italian" university calls for "final solution" to Zionists.

Glenn Reynolds on the State of Free Speech
Speech, the good professor tells us, is freer.
People, however, are not.
I agree.
"Well, just like Big Brother in 1984, people don’t suppress opponents’ ideas because they are confident in their own. They suppress opponents’ ideas because they have more confidence in the argument of force than in the force of their arguments."
"And that leads to a general rule: The people who are trying to silence their political enemies aren’t doing it because they’re right. They’re doing it because they’re afraid that otherwise, people will realize they’re running a scam. Bear that in mind, this election season, and beyond."

Technology has liberalized and equalized access to a world-wide Speaker's Easy.
But the political left is determined to limit what can be thought and said, and currently is currently lawyer, judge and jury regarding what the incredibly punitive personal, professional, social, financial and psychological costs will be for those of us that dare speak our minds.

Jews! Here's the Trump Video You Have Been Waiting For! Must Watch
Ezra Levant just put a new video together that all Jews should watch (the liberal ones won't but I can least try to get it out there).
Trump is pretty Jewy!

Shakedown in Calgary
A non-denominational private school forced by Alberta's "Human Rights" governmental kangaroo court to religiously accommodate students.
The school appealed and now a dhimmi Canadian judge is upholding the shakedown.

The Real Meaning of "Justice" For "Palestinians"
Cravatts is right when he says that this cause is basically leftist virtue signalling and preening of the first order. There is indeed an element of moral narcissism in this type of activism.
But he's being charitable.
Identification with this cause is identification with a culture of death and Jew-hatred. It never ends well.
It indicates an infatuation with a dangerous, totalitarian force that consumes everything in its midst, including the earnest activists sucked into its seductive whirlwind of nihilism.
It starts with the Jews but never ends with the Jews.

Trump: We Should Only Admit Those With Shared Values
Yuge!
“Our new approach, which must be shared by both parties in America, by our allies overseas, and by our friends in the Middle East, must be to halt the spread of radical Islam,” said Trump.
“All actions should be oriented around this goal, and any country which shares this goal will be our ally. We cannot always choose our friends, but we can never fail to recognize our enemies,” he continued."
"In that regard, Trump said he would call for an international conference focused on this goal."
“We will work side-by-side with our friends in the Middle East, including our greatest ally, Israel. We will partner with King Abdullah of Jordan, and President Sisi of Egypt, and all others who recognize this ideology of death that must be extinguished.”
"Trump also said that American values should be impressed upon “newcomers,” calling for the assimilation of immigrants."
“Assimilation is not an act of hostility, but an expression of compassion. Our system of government, and our American culture, is the best in the world and will produce the best outcomes for all who adopt it,” said Trump.

The Left's Reticence on Islam
Read the whole thing!
As Thornton says, the "romance of progressives with Islam reflects the fundamental incoherence of Marxist-inspired leftism....The left’s reticence on Islam, in addition to being a repudiation of its deepest professed principles, hamstrings our ability to engage and destroy the jihadist enemy."

That is why the Canadian papers are more interested in the crack video of the late Rob Ford (they cannot even leave dead conservatives alone to rest in peace) than the actual terrorist attack that was prevented in Canada.

Sucker Donors to Socialist Candidate Now Feel the Bern
Your Glorious Comrade in Socialism, Bernie Sanders has purchased his third home for $600,000.
Oddly enough, that sum is apparently more than his declared net worth.
I'm sure all those low-income $27 donors are super happy for Comrade Bernard.

American College Student Radicalism Turns Alumni Donors Off
"Alumni from a range of generations say they are baffled by today’s college culture. Among their laments: Students are too wrapped up in racial and identity politics. They are allowed to take too many frivolous courses. They have repudiated the heroes and traditions of the past by judging them by today’s standards rather than in the context of their times. Fraternities are being unfairly maligned, and men are being demonized by sexual assault investigations. And university administrations have been too meek in addressing protesters whose messages have seemed to fly in the face of free speech."

Sorry, New York Times, The Israeli Press is Doing Just Fine
An excellent essay from Liel Leibovitz at Tablet.
In a nutshell:
"Out of ideas, out of time, and out of touch with reality, the small cabal that huddles in Tel Aviv’s newsrooms can hardly believe that the unwashed masses could be so impudent as to demand media that faithfully reflect reality, or that at least offer more the singular and approved and rigid point of view. With no one left to listen in Israel, they turn to the Times, which, to paraphrase Margalit’s piece, is quickly becoming the refuge of the blame-Israel-only crowd."

Louder With Crowder: Cenk Uygur Freak Out
I'm dying.
Have watched this several times and it's funny every time.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
The background is that this Uygur guy freaked out on Alex Jones at the RNC when Jones offered him a t-shirt with Bill Clinton's face and "RAPE" on it. Apparently, all of these "hip" shows try to hijack and punk one another during conventions. Whoop dee doo.
Anyway, this is really funny stuff, especially as the evil, seeeeekrit Joooo Kathy Draidlebaum pointed out, Ben Shapiro's "shekel face". Watch as the sweat stain level keeps upping throughout the clip.

The UK Is Screwed
Britain shows us the exactly WRONG way of dealing with an attempted kidnapping of one of its soldiers.
The right thing to do is to have more uniformed soldiers and more armed officers, a bigger show of strength, more resolution, more visible shows of resolve, more courage and more public police presence.
This is a despicable act of cowardice and Britain will continue to suffer as a result.
Might as well just wave a white flag around all army bases in the UK.

Howie Carr: Hey Dude, It Takes One To Know One
An extremely satisfying read which will nevertheless have zero effect on anyone who thinks President Obama is the messiah.
Unfit for office?
Let's talk about that...
"Brave talk from a guy who thinks there are 57 states, that they speak Austrian in Austria, that they speak Arabic in Afghanistan, who pronounced the state he lived in for three years as “Mass-a-tu-setts,” who pronounced corpsman as “corpseman.” Who thinks the Transcontinental Railroad was “intercontinental.”
"He described Eric Holder’s wife, a physician, as a “nationally renowned ohbee-gynee.” He misspelled “Syracus” on his NCAA brackets sheet. He is utterly tongue-tied without a teleprompter. He makes “recess” appointments when the Senate is not in recess."
"If he had a son, he would look like Trayvon Martin. His grandmother was a typical white person. The Cambridge Police Department acted stupidly."
"It never ends with this buffoon. Yesterday, in Singapore, he mangled the name of the country’s founding father. He can’t be bothered acting like an adult. He chews gum in public. Remember how he took selfies of himself with the Danish hottie at Nelson Mandela’s funeral?"
