“Oct 7 2023”

As Israel is waging war on the Iran-backed Hamas terrorist group, whose members murdered more than 1,200 Israelis and kidnapped 240 others to the Gaza Strip on October 7, the Biden administration appears to be doing its utmost to sabotage Israel’s efforts to defend itself against terrorism.

Iran and its proxies, including Hamas, Hezbollah, Palestinian Islamic Jihad and the Houthis, can only be ecstatic about the Biden administration’s new restrictions, especially the pressure it is reportedly exerting on Israel to end the war in the coming weeks.

Have you heard the expression, “Two Jews, three opinions”? Truly, we have always been a contentious people.

In judging the worthiness of any particular internal debate, our sages applied the criterion of motivation. Constructive debate, they decreed, was noble; debate intended to wound was ignoble. I consider “ignoble” any public rhetoric by Jews that provides both comfort and ammunition to our enemies.

Facebook and Instagram allow adverts featuring the controversial slogan “from the river to the sea”, despite the phrase being condemned as anti-Semitic.

The social networks have run multiple adverts in the UK and Europe, some seen by hundreds of thousands of people, containing the phrase since the October 7 attacks.

The adverts range from political statements to promotions for art, clothing and jewellery seeking to capitalise on the phrase.

In 1951 William Buckley Jr. – the most influential conservative American intellectual of the XX century whose clash with the gay liberal dandy Gore Vidal has become legendary – published “God and man at Yale”, a formidable indictment against the relativism that already reigned in universities. If he were alive, Buckley would write the sequel: “Allah and woke at Yale”.

Two days ago, at Yale, pro-Palestinian militants covered the Jewish menorah with their flag, while the Yale cafeteria removed the name “Israel” from a salad and the Wall Street Journal revealed that Yale has become a “hostile” environment to Jewish students.

The pro-Hamas barbarians are within the walls of the citadel of civilization.

Foreign Affairs Minister Melanie Joly says she believes a two-state solution to the Israel-Palestinian conflict is more possible to achieve now than before the Israel-Hamas war began more than two months ago.

When asked by CTV’s Question Period host Vassy Kapelos in an interview airing Sunday whether she thinks the feasibility of a two-state solution has diminished since Hamas attacked Israel on Oct. 7, Joly said she thinks “the contrary.”

“I think because this conflict is so difficult for Israel, so difficult for the Palestinians, so difficult for the world, not only in Canada because we’ve seen the rise of antisemitism, the rise of Islamophobia and just the rise of tension,” she said.

New video reveals “the biggest Hamas tunnel” yet discovered by Israel — and includes eerie footage of the Palestinian terrorists building it.

The building of the massive 2.5-mile-long labyrinth was overseen by Mohammad Sinwar, the brother of Oct. 7 mastermind Yahya Sinwar, Israeli officials said Sunday.

New York Times reporter and controversialist Jonathan Weisman made the front page of Monday’s New York Times with “Is Anti-Zionism Always Antisemitic? A Fraught Question for the Moment.” Weisman approached the sensitive matter with his trademark politically corrupted cynicism: In Weisman’s world, no matter the gravity of the issue at hand, Republicans are invariably being partisan hacks when they address it.
