Why the ‘historic’ climate summit was just a publicity stunt

John Kerry Ass Faced Hypocrite

At COP-28 in Dubai this week, weary international delegates and environmental activists celebrated a “historic breakthrough” in negotiations to stop global warming. For the first time in 32 years of negotiations, an agreement mentions “transitioning away from fossil fuels.”

“Officials from around the globe suggested the deal is an important step towards ending the use of fossil fuels,” Aljazeera reported. Other news outlets called it a landmark and historic development. America’s climate envoy, John Kerry, said the words send “very strong messages to the world.”

He’s correct, but not for the reason he meant. The message is that expectations for these annual conferences are so low that even the most inescapable aspiration is reason to cheer.

Who Counts as an Expert?

A transgender activist at Harvard Law School is fact-checked in an academic journal.

The core question in lawsuits over state-level age restrictions on “gender-affirming care” or former patients suing their providers for fraud or malpractice is whether sex-trait modification is an evidence-based and ethical medical practice. Recognizing the limits of their own knowledge on such matters, judges have turned to expert witnesses to help them understand the key issues at play. But since both sides in these legal contests appoint expert witnesses to back their claims (typically medical doctors and mental-health professionals), judges must determine which are more credible.

The Return of American Excellence

The 20th century was without a doubt the American century.

The former colonies left the 19th century as a relatively isolated nation, still growing, still searching for its place in a world shaped by centuries of European greatness. After much agony, the United States decided to enter the world stage by throwing its manpower and sizable industrial might into World War I.

Even though the war militarily ended in a draw, historians have written it as a victory for the American side. Right or wrong, the punishment of Germany, penned into ominously historic ink in a train car in Versailles, reinforced the image of American victory.

Philadelphia fights crime by banning ski masks

Plan on being cold this winter if you live in Philadelphia.

Dumb Donald hardest hit.

Why? Because the Philadelphia City Council passed a ban on ski masks, and the reason for that is that it covers the face of potential criminals.

So once again, law-abiding citizens have to pay the price of criminals because leftist politicians won’t address the actual problem. It’s the same type of thinking that people follow with gun bans. Because a gun, or in this case, a ski mask, can be used by a person to commit a crime, we’ll ban it.

The whole earth has come under the jurisdiction of Islam

Europe is in turmoil due to the mass migration policies of the EU elites. Immigration is the dominant issue throughout the EU.

“World-renowned author sees Islamists conquering Europe,” headlines the Danish newspaper Berlingske. “The forecast is grim, but award-winning writer Boualem Sansal has no doubts: Islamists will gradually take over democracies in Europe. The rise of Hamas is just the beginning of a threat that the ‘incompetent governments’ of the West have failed to understand. And the war is already underway.”
Sansal is not a passerby, but the most esteemed Arab novelist.

“The whole earth has come under the jurisdiction of the rule of Islam.” Thus in the latest Journal du Manche by Gilles Kepel, the most famous expert on Islam in France.

The DEI industry’s most notorious grifters

Offences range from exorbitant fees to outright fraud

In the three years since the explosive growth of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) in 2020, numerous high-profile leaders in the field have been exposed as grifters. This stretches from outright fraud — as in a recent Facebook case — to exorbitant charges for lectures and similar services, as in the cases of Robin DiAngelo and Saira Rao.

The disturbing rebirth of Holocaust denial

An alarming number of young people now think the Nazis’ slaughter of six million Jews is a myth.

The results of a new poll, carried out by The Economist and YouGov, are deeply disturbing. They suggest that more than a fifth of young Americans, aged between 19 and 29, agree with the statement that ‘the Holocaust is a myth’. A further 30 per cent neither agree nor disagree with this statement. That means that just 47 per cent of American young people believe the Holocaust actually happened.

Is Israel’s Gaza mission impossible?

Is Israel engaged in a “mission impossible” in Gaza? The stated aim of Operation Swords of Iron is to annihilate Hamas, but after more than two months of fighting and bombardment, that military objective would seem to be unrealistic.

With the firepower and combat experience at its disposal, the Israel Defence Forces (IDF) will have started the full-scale war confident of its ability to destroy a terrorist organisation of between 30,000 and 40,000 members, all within a strictly limited territorial area.

Pro-Palestinian protesters rally outside U.S. Consulate in Toronto for Gazan medical workers

Pro-Palestinian demonstrators held a rally outside the U.S. Consulate in downtown Toronto on Saturday afternoon to demand an immediate ceasefire in the ongoing Israel-Hamas war.

The demonstration is the latest weekend mass rally led by pro-Palestinian activists since the start of the current conflict on Oct. 7.

It began 2 p.m. outside the consulate on University Avenue, between Queen and Dundas streets.

They got Trudeau to join the anti-zionist ceasefire squad wasn’t that enough?

Ottawa’s ‘wartime housing’ is a start, but we’re still a long way from declaring victory

Growing up part of the Canadian generation born to baby boomers, I heard the phrase “wartime housing” spoken of both mythically and practically. Mythically, because it evoked a time when an incredible amount of housing seemed to be created almost overnight. Practically, because such housing could be found in cities across Canada, providing good shelter for people and families — then and for multiple generations since.

More than 30,000 homes were built in Canada, a large impact when the population was much smaller. This kind of housing was, and still is, an integral part of the urban fabric.
