A Fifth Column?

What does it mean when your seemingly friendly Arab neighbor turns against you?

Arab Israeli Muslim citizens (yes, they are “Palestinians” too), have been torching synagogues, cars, buses, and buildings in the Jewish Holy Land, as they turn on their Jewish neighbors with violent hatred.

We have read about and some of us have experienced such pogrom-like atrocities before—but only in Christian or Muslim sovereign lands. I’ve listened to many a Jewish escapee from Hitler describe how quickly her neighbors seized her family’s chinaware, paintings, furniture—their entire apartments, even before they had reached the lobby of their building.

12% of Brits say they’re ‘woke’, with Guardian and BBC among ‘wokest’ media outlets, YouGov poll finds

Some 12% of the British public consider themselves “woke,” according to new research by polling site YouGov, although it appears that not everyone in the UK has added the trendy term to their vocabulary.

In February, YouGov asked 1,692 British adults about what it means to be woke and whether they would use the term to describe themselves – and the full results were published on Tuesday.

Retired Navy officers have issued a chilling warning that UFO sightings – which have repeatedly violated US airspace – possess technology that is up to 1,000 years ahead of that used by the United States.

Footage released last week confirmed as real by the Pentagon appeared to show a UFO buzz a United States stealth ship near San Diego before diving under the water.

Gwyn Morgan: Canada Harming Own Economy With Carbon Tax While Importing High Carbon Footprint Chinese Products

Any strong words Trudeau may mouth about China are to be taken with a very large grain of salt.

Canada is crippling its economy and damaging its own competitiveness by imposing carbon taxes on Canadian manufacturing while importing products with massive carbon footprints from China without imposing similar taxes, says Gwyn Morgan, one of Canada’s foremost business executives.

“If you’re taxing something that’s already as clean as it could get, all you’re doing is increasing the price and the cost to consumers, industry, businesses, and manufacturing, and making the country less competitive,” said Morgan, founder of Canada’s largest energy company EnCana Corp., now Ovintiv Inc.

The decline and fall of the Associated Press

The AP’s building in Gaza collapses after an Israeli air strike. Is the organization’s credibility crumbling too?

Once, long ago, in a land far away, the best journalists tried to stand aloof from the stories they reported. The idea was simple and powerful. If journalists tried to be neutral and kept their reporting separate from their opinions, analysis, and speculation, then the public would believe them.

Those days are long gone — and the media’s credibility is gone with them. Journalists and media organizations are now smack in the middle of many stories they cover, in part because they want to be. They want to spin them, to set ‘the Narrative’.

Biden faces another Vietnam, Hill critics warn

The U.S. military exit from Afghanistan is beginning to look “just like Vietnam,” a key lawmaker warned Tuesday as questions grow about Biden administration’s short-term strategy to ensure U.S. civilian personnel and Afghan allies aren’t slaughtered by the Taliban and the long-term prospect that the country’s pro-Western government may collapse without international support.

A heated hearing before the House Foreign Affairs Committee on Tuesday underscored the mounting chaos surrounding the withdrawal of the remaining 3,500 U.S. troops from Afghanistan, which President Biden has ordered to be completed no later than Sept. 11. Thousands more NATO and allied troops are also heading for the exits in the wake of Mr. Biden’s pullout decision.

The government will almost certainly fall but who cares?

Bill Gates reportedly hoped Jeffrey Epstein would help him win a Nobel

Bill Gates courted Jeffrey Epstein in the twisted belief the well-connected pedophile could help him get a Nobel Peace Prize, a former staffer claimed, according to a report Tuesday.

The Microsoft billionaire horrified staff with the meetings, which started in 2011 — when Epstein was already a convicted pedophile — and which reportedly left Gate’s wife Melinda so disturbed it helped drive the couple to divorce.

Ted Morton: Line 5 fiasco shows Trudeau is a failure on energy policy

The Line 5 controversy highlights Justin Trudeau’s failure to protect one of the most important sectors of Canada’s economy. His infatuation with climate change apocalypse has left Canada’s energy sector at the mercy of partisan American politics. The Line 5 battle has also made it clear that new export pipelines are no longer just an Alberta issue. Forty-five per cent of all the oil used by Ontario and Quebec comes through Line 5. If Michigan governor Gretchen Whitmer ever succeeds in shutting the pipeline down, there would be economic chaos in both provinces.

Israel seeks to kill Qassam Brigades commander Dief, strike Hamas as world pushes for ceasefire

Among those targets is Hamas’s Qassam Brigades commander Mohammed Deif, who the IDF believes it has a chance of killing if the operation continues. Military sources told The Jerusalem Post that Dief had been targeted more than once during the last week of fighting but that he had succeeded at the last moment to get away.

This Article Is “Partly False”

This Article Is “Partly False”

Supposedly engaged in a struggle against misinformation, Facebook and its fact-checking partner spread their own.

At the end of a recent 800-meter race in Oregon, a high school runner named Maggie Williams got dizzy, passed out, and landed face-first just beyond the finish line. She and her coach blamed her collapse on a deficit of oxygen due to the mask she’d been forced to wear, and state officials responded to the public outcry by easing their requirements for masks during athletic events. But long before the pandemic began, scientists had repeatedly found that wearing a mask could lead to oxygen deprivation. Why had this risk been ignored?
