What use is a Jewishness that blinds you to hatred of Jews?
After the October 7 terrorist attack, many American Jews have stomached two shocks: the shock of Hamas’s brutality, and the shock of their putative political allies’ support for the brutes. Liberal Jews are not only horrified by campus chants of “there is only one solution: Intifada, revolution.” They are also surprised.
George Soros — the most notorious leftist billionaire in American politics — has chosen a successor to take over his $25-billion nonprofit empire. Thirty-seven-year-old Alex Soros is replacing his father and, based on his political history, he will be even worse.
The elder Soros named his self-proclaimed “more political” son Alex as the new leader of the Open Society Foundations in June. This follows after Alex was chosen to lead his father’s enormous political action committee — Democracy PAC — in 2022. Alex then oversaw at least $32,648,000 spent during the midterm elections to support leftist candidates.
German authorities conducted nationwide searches of 54 locations across seven federal states connected to the Islamic Center of Hamburg (IZH) on Thursday morning, the Interior Ministry said.
In a statement, the ministry said the IZH was suspected of “acting against constitutional order” and of “supporting [the] terror organization Hezbollah.”
No arrests were made during the raids, which were carried out to secure evidence on the suspicion that the Hamburg center and affiliated groups back the activities of Hezbollah.
Biden administration officials believe that the Palestinian Authority (PA), headed by Mahmoud Abbas, should be brought back to the Gaza Strip after the Iran-backed Hamas terrorist group is removed from power.
The officials, including US Secretary of State Antony Blinken, appear convinced that the Gaza Strip and the West Bank should be unified in the post-Hamas era. On November 9, Blinken was quoted as saying that after the current Israel-Hamas war, the solution must “include Palestinian-led governance and Gaza unified with the West Bank under the Palestinian Authority.”
A storm has gathered over the Belgian Parliament for refusing to show a graphic video of the Hamas attack on 7 October, put together by the Israeli Government, due to a lack of consensus between MPs.
Unlike some neighbouring countries, the Belgian Parliament turned down an invitation by the Israeli Embassy on Tuesday to set up a screening of graphic videos of the Hamas terror attack on 7 October, which killed around 1400 people. It was the worst attack in Israel’s history.
Whilst MR, Les Engagés and N-VA were in favour of the screening, strong opposition came from the French-speaking Socialist Party (PS) – who argued it would be fairer to also show a reciprocal video on the violence against Palestinians. This stance was backed by the Belgian Green Parties (Ecolo/Groen) and the Belgian Worker’s Party (PTB/PVDA).
Damn socialists.
A Global News investigation has found evidence that Canada has become a safe haven for affiliates of the Islamic Republic of Iran who are allegedly threatening the lives of Iranian Canadians, and other dissidents in this country.
Critics of the regime are renewing their calls for the Canadian government to list Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard (IRGC) as a terrorist organization.
Police and protesters clashed outside of the Democratic Party’s national headquarters on Wednesday, forcing dozens of lawmakers to be evacuated.
Officials said the pro-Palestinian organisers calling for a ceasefire in Gaza were gathered “illegally and violently”.
Protesters said they were provoked by police in riot gear who rushed them without warning.
Six officers were treated for injuries and a protester was arrested.

A recent study reveals hundreds of publications from Toronto universities collaborating with Chinese academic institutions linked to the military on sensitive research. A former intelligence officer said the ongoing partnerships signal an incentive gap in curbing such practices.
The study, released in October by the Frontier Assessments Unit (FAU), identified a total of 371 publications from collaborations between Canadian universities and seven Chinese academies known as the “Seven Sons of National Defence” due to their strong affiliations with the People’s Liberation Army, the primary military force of communist China.
California police have arrested Loay Alnaji on an involuntary manslaughter charge for the death of Jewish protester Paul Kessler.
Kessler, 69, died after getting into an altercation with Alnaji at a protest in Thousand Oaks earlier this month.
An autopsy revealed he’d been hit in the face and died after hitting his head on the concrete sidewalk. Witnesses said Alnaji attacked him, causing him to fall.
WINDSOR, Ont. – A man accused of killing four members of a Muslim family in London, Ont., was found guilty Thursday of four counts of first-degree murder in a case that had sparked a national conversation on combating Islamophobia.
Jurors in a Windsor, Ont., courtroom also found Nathaniel Veltman guilty of one count of attempted murder.
Veltman, 22, had pleaded not guilty to all the charges and quietly looked straight ahead as his verdict was delivered after the jury deliberated for roughly five hours.
Educators need to take caution when it comes to commenting on the Israel-Hamas conflict because there is “zero tolerance” for hate and they will be held accountable, says Education Minister Stephen Lecce.
Teachers and school administrators “need to lead by example,” Lecce said at Queen’s Park on Wednesday.
“The vile rise of hate in schools, afflicting many communities, is disturbing, with the spark in antisemitism. It requires educators, principals … to do better.”
How about the hate directed against white people?

He is perhaps the last person you would expect to see giving safety instructions but that is exactly what actor Alec Baldwin has been caught on camera doing, just a year after he was holding a gun that fired a fatal shot, killing cinematographer Helnya Hutchins, on the set of Rust.
The latest poll from Abacus Data has Justin Trudeau’s Liberals trailing the Conservatives by 16 percentage points, 25 to 41. That’s landslide territory for Pierre Poilievre’s Conservative Party, right up there with John Diefenbaker’s 208-seat victory in 1958 and Brian Mulroney’s 211-seat record-breaker in 1984.
This isn’t an isolated poll. Opinion surveys have been trending in this deathly direction for the Liberals for many months. To borrow from auto-racing parlance, for Mr. Trudeau to call an election today would be the equivalent of “Gentlemen. Start your coffins!”
At what appears to be a culturally enriched children’s birthday gathering in some American city — Chicago, possibly, or Atlanta; it doesn’t really matter because the “urban” culture has been synthesized and exported by the media machine from coast to coast — a pair of children, one apparently 7 or 8 in an Air Jordan t-shirt and the other looking not a day over 3 in an Air Jordan track suit, can be seen waving (fake) cash and (probably fake, but let’s not give the parents the benefit of the doubt) guns in the same manner that can be seen in damn near every rap video from the last twenty years.

Canada’s former foreign affairs minister, John Baird, said Justin Trudeau was responding to pressure from his own caucus members to shift to a more pro-Palestinian stance, when he called on Israel to use “maximum restraint” in Gaza.
“I think supporting Israel is not a popular thing in all quarters, but it’s the right thing. Trudeau has one eye on foreign policy and the other on the next election (because) a group of his MPs are getting increasingly nervous and increasingly concerned that they’re facing defeat.”
