CAIR backs leader after ‘virulently anti-Semitic’ speech attacking mainstream Jewish entities

“As someone who has been repeatedly attacked by Zahra Billoo for almost 15 years, I am amused that the Anti-Defamation League, Jewish Federations, Hillels and ‘Zionist synagogues’ only become upset with her when she called them out as ‘polite Zionists,’ ” said Daniel Pipes, president of the Middle East Forum. “Glad you woke up, guys, and welcome to the club.”

The ADL etc just end up looking bad.

“This is textbook vile, anti-Semitic, conspiracy-laden garbage attacking the mainstream U.S. Jewish community. It sounds like something you would expect from white supremacists,” tweeted Jonathan Greenblatt, ADL’s CEO.

He’s just discovering their true nature now? What a bullshit charade.

An Ohio chapter of the nation’s largest Muslim civil liberties and advocacy organization fires its leader, Romin Iqbal, for ethical and professional breaches that it says include a years-long secret association with an anti-Muslim group.

During a briefing, spokesperson Whitney Siddiqi identifies the group as the Investigative Project on Terrorism, led by Steve Emerson.

The generals’ belated awakening

It is beginning to dawn on the Israelis that when it comes to Iran’s nuclear program, the Jewish state stands alone.

Something is changing in the assessment of the Iranian nuclear threat among Israel’s military brass. Evidence is growing that members of the IDF General Staff and Mossad are beginning to realize that the United States doesn’t share Israel’s goal of preventing Iran from becoming a nuclear power. Last week, for instance, Michael Makovsky, head of the Jewish Institute for National Security of America (JINSA), a Washington-based group that cultivates ties between Israeli and U.S. generals, published an article in the New York Post in which he described their rude awakening.

Biden’s handlers are Obama 2.0.

“Is the Biden Administration at War with Israel?”

On May 2018, when the United States Embassy in Jerusalem was inaugurated on the 70th anniversary of the State of Israel’s founding, the US consulate in Jerusalem became useless and quickly shut its gates. Now, in 2021, the current US Biden administration wants to reopen the consulate, “for the Palestinians”, Arabs ruled by the Palestinian Authority.

Seeing this proposal as a threat to Israel’s sovereignty over Jerusalem, Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett declined the request.

Canada should ‘prepare for the worst’ if Biden’s Build Back Better Act passes with EV tax credit: Ng

Canadians should “prepare for the worst” if U.S. lawmakers decide to greenlight President Joe Biden’s protectionist Build Back Better Act with the inclusion of the contentious electric vehicle tax credit, says International Trade Minister Mary Ng.

In an interview on CTV’s Question Period with Evan Solomon airing Sunday, Ng spoke to a letter she co-signed with Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland, which threatens retaliatory tariffs on the U.S. if the tax credit isn’t amended.

“What my hope is, is that we are not going to have to do this at all but what is really important is that Canada prepares for the worst,” she said.

The Iran Nuclear Deal: Biden Administration’s Fatal Mistakes

The Biden administration, in an attempt to revive the nuclear deal, is continuing to forge ahead by negotiating with the government of Ebrahim Raisi, known — for his crimes against humanity and his involvement in a massacre of nearly 30,000 political prisoners — as the “Butcher of Tehran.”

First of all, the Biden administration’s objective is not to halt Iran’s deeply flawed nuclear program permanently — the biggest flaw being that in a few years, Iran is permitted in its “sunset period” to have as many nuclear weapons as it likes — but just to limit Iran’s program for a period of time while removing the sanctions that hurt it economically.

Get ready for the Great Mid-East Bug Out, this is Obama 2.0 policy resurrected.

Biden is delivering the quickest financial recovery in history. Why hasn’t anyone noticed?

Democrats face a sticky situation: The economy is approaching full work after counting 210,000 positions in November.
