At a Saturday night rally at Hostages Square in Tel Aviv, organizers screened a testimony from released hostage Agam Goldstein-Almog, who spent 51 days hostage in Gaza and was released from Hamas captivity as part of a prisoner swap.
“My father stood at the entrance to the bomb shelter with a board from my sister’s bed,” she recalled. “They came in and shot him right away. He screamed, ‘No no no’ and we were sitting huddled in the corner of the room. They brought us out, we went over my father, we saw him lying with his hands up.”
Statistics Canada has a talent for reporting deaths with numbing precision, but in such a way that makes it hard to know what’s really going on. Perhaps it’s just me but for example, if 16,043 people out of 334,623 are recorded as having died of unspecified ‘unknown causes,’ I’m sure they’re right. But take a look at the chart below.
The relative peace we have enjoyed since the end of the Cold War has never been as challenged as it is today, and Canada, once a reasonably formidable player on the international stage, has no role in shaping the world’s uncertain future. Our military and diplomatic capabilities have been permitted to diminish, and major voices in both defence and business have taken to warning the rest of us of the consequences.
Perrin Beatty, former minister of national defence and current CEO of the Canadian Chamber of Commerce, decried the woeful state of Canada’s presence on the world stage last weekend in an open letter addressed to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. This was not Beatty’s first public plea to end the government’s complacency and take defence seriously. In 1987, as minister of defence, he tabled a white paper proposing to rearm the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF), increase funding and add nuclear submarines to the fleet. His idea was good then and it is good now.
Congress has been promised fresh details this Tuesday on last year’s shocking allegations of an illegal UFO crash retrieval and reverse-engineering program.
The charges, made by former high-ranking US intelligence official David Grusch, accuse both the US military and its defense contractors of stonewalling on evidence of crashed UFOs, recovered ‘beings,’ and even UFO-related deaths.
While Americans wait in anticipation for possible new details, a source with direct knowledge of standard operations inside the US Intelligence Community’s Inspector General’s office (IC IG) told DailyMail.com that the meeting will be ‘only for show.’

By now, you have probably heard that California has extended its version of Medicaid to include free health care for illegal immigrants.
It’s a bold move, given that the state’s budget is nearly $70 billion in deficit. Nothing says “fiscal responsibility” more than inviting the entire world into your state for free medical care.
Glynn Simmons took a long glance out the window of the car passenger seat as he drove with a friend along the freeway to Tulsa, Oklahoma. His gaze was fixated on the night sky, lit up with stars.
It was a sight the 70-year-old had not been able to witness for nearly half a century, after spending most of his life in prison for a murder he did not commit.
“It’s things like that … watching the seasons change, the foliage, simple things that you couldn’t do in prison. You couldn’t enjoy it. You couldn’t see it,” Mr Simmons told the BBC. “It’s exhilarating.”
Toronto Police Kowtow to Hamas supporters: When you apply the law selectively or not at all in favour of Hamas supporters over everyone else then you lose the consent to be governed. #Toronto#Gaza#Israel#Palestine#Hamashttps://t.co/GGjY02t8it
Should the Biden administration persist in pursuing a leadership approach perceived as lacking in strength, and should the Biden administration continue to pursue a strategy characterized by conciliation and concession towards the Iranian regime, 2024 will mark the year that the Islamic Republic of Iran acquires nuclear weapons, heralding a pivotal development in their military capabilities and devastating, far-reaching repercussions for regional and international security. If the US fails to remove Iran’s nuclear capability — and not just (literally) buy time to enable it — the catastrophes that follow will surely go down as US President Joe Biden’s legacy, as well as the legacy of those around him.
The expensive electric vehicle that Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm used during her ill-fated summer road trip is no longer eligible for federal tax credits thanks to a new rule that pulls subsidies for cars made with certain Chinese components.

So did his mysterious, monied world — populated by A-listers, politicians, and captains of industry.
