How Israeli Arab Leaders Betray Their Own People

The Iran-backed Palestinian Hamas terrorist group has long been seeking to spark a civil war between Israel’s Arab and Jewish citizens. Over the past few years, Hamas has called on the two million Arab citizens of Israel to revolt against their own country and join the Jihad against Israel.

Hamas’s attempts were partially successful in May 2021, when some Arabs attacked their Jewish neighbors. The assaults occurred at the same time as an Israeli military operation in the Gaza Strip. That operation was launched in response to rockets fired by Hamas and other Palestinian terrorist groups at Israel. Fortunately, the violence that erupted in 2021 ended quickly.

‘I may end up in tears telling my story’: How a former MPP and Toronto city councillor found himself living in a homeless shelter

Twenty-six years ago, Lorenzo Berardinetti was a leader at the dawn of a new civic era, the head of the Scarborough delegation in the first Toronto megacity council.

Six years ago, he was at Queen’s Park, helping steer the province from the helm of its justice policy standing committee after winning four elections as a Liberal MPP.

Tonight, he will have his bag searched. He will take his shoes off and have them inspected for weapons and drugs. He will sleep in a room with 23 other people.

Mental health firm paying Prince Harry ‘£1m salary’ is condemned by staff as a ‘toxic train wreck’ and ‘psychologically unsafe place to work’ where ‘everyone is living in fear’

Prince Harry’s role at mental health firm BetterUp is to ‘advocate for mental fitness’ and ‘guide the company’s social mission’.

The Duke of Sussex is also a vocal champion for its app, described as ‘life coach Tinder for millennials’, revealing that he used it to find his own ‘truly awesome’ mental health trainer when he joined in 2021 post-Megxit.

But past and present employees suggest there is much work to be done after describing the US-based business as a ‘toxic train wreck’ and ‘psychologically unsafe place to work’ where ‘everyone is uncomfortable and living in fear’.

Q&A: Why Alberta Premier Danielle Smith sided with Trump about border issues in trade spat

Alberta Premier Danielle Smith’s 2024 was a year of following through on her promises — from health-care reforms to support for the oil and gas industry — even as her opponents fought her ideas.

In a year-end interview at the legislature in early December, Smith reflected on a few pressing issues.

The Alberta government’s next steps, she said, will be revealed in the provincial budget, set to be tabled on Feb. 27.

CNN journalists offer brutal assessment of why their network is failing – “We’re not Trump Deranged enough”

CNN’s stubbornly leftist journalists think they know why their viewers are abandoning ship in record numbers – they’re not going hard enough against Donald Trump anymore.

That is the suggestion from reporters who spoke anonymously to The Washington Post this week as the network recovered from some of its lowest ratings ever.

Insiders claim a decision to hold a town hall with the president-elect back in May 2023 upset staff and viewers, as did the decision not to fact check Trump during his debate earlier this year.

‘We bury them, and we move on. It’s not normal’: How gun violence in Toronto shatters lives

TPS Most Wanted

For weeks, Heather Parkes couldn’t bring herself to move the seven-foot balsam fur Christmas tree on her porch inside her home.

Usually, she says, her husband George would do it.

“He would be out there and it would have been in when we got it,” she said.

For Parkes and their six adult kids, celebrating Christmas this year has felt impossible. It’s their first year without Delroy — better known as George — Parkes after the 61-year-old was killed this summer in a mass shooting at an Etobicoke high school.

Assad loyalists attack new Syrian regime in first major retaliation, killing 14 police officers

Protester also shot dead after video showing desecration of ousted leader’s minority group shrine goes viral

Fourteen members of the Syrian police have been killed in an “ambush” by forces loyal to the ousted regime of Bashar al-Assad.

The officers died in the Tartus countryside in the west of the country, the transitional administration said early on Thursday, in the first major retaliation against the new rulers.

Mohammed Abdel Rahman, Syria’s new interior minister, said on Telegram that 10 police officers were also wounded by what he called “remnants” of the Assad government in Tartus, vowing to crack down on “anyone who dares to undermine Syria’s security or endanger the lives of its citizens”.
