Is there such a thing as an innocent Palestinian?
Instead of being outraged that Gazan families were holding Israelis captive or happy that several hostages had been freed, the international community condemned Israel for deaths caused by the raid.
The Israel Defense Force’s daring rescue of four hostages being held by a Palestinian journalist, his physician father, and other so-called civilians in Gaza’s Nuseirat camp last weekend should have ended the narrative that all Palestinians are victims. Yet, instead of being outraged that Gazan families were holding Israelis captive - or even being happy that several hostages had finally been freed - the international community condemned Israel for the “civilian” deaths caused by the raid.
The United Nations human rights office put out a statement saying they were “profoundly shocked” by the bloodshed. I’m sure no one bothered to ask why U.N. agencies allow Hamas to store weapons in their facilities or why they build them over tunnel shafts…READ MORE…
Flag Day and Trump's Birthday: Uniting America Through Shared Patriotism
While these two events might seem unrelated at first glance, their coinciding dates and the symbolism attached to each offer a powerful convergence of patriotism that can help unite Americans from diverse backgrounds and political affiliations.
Flag Day: A Celebration of National Unity
Flag Day commemorates the adoption of the American flag on June 14, 1777, by the Second Continental Congress. This day is a time to honor the symbol of the nation's unity, freedom, and the values that underpin the United States. The flag represents the country’s history, its struggles, and the sacrifices made by countless individuals to secure and maintain its liberty…READ MORE…
Increase Illegals' Rights, Decrease Americans' Rights
Counting foreign nationals in the 2030 Census will decrease Americans' rights in the Electoral College and in the House of Representatives.
The key reason^ the Biden Regime is importing foreign nationals, 17 million so far, is to increase the number of electoral votes and House seats in Blue States following the 2030 Census. Keep in mind, by statute, this number is capped at 435 congressional districts. If a state gets one more congressional district (and electoral vote) because Biden’s “newcomers” live there (California & New York are prime examples), another state loses a seat and loses an electoral vote…READ MORE…
Our Leaders Don’t Read
Outside of their daily briefings and read aheads, our leaders just don’t read… and thus, they are not contextual thinkers.
A few years ago, I was interviewing the outgoing Deputy to the Commanding General of one of the U.S. Army’s premier mission support commands. This individual was an SES level 1, the civilian equivalent of a 1-star general, and had retired from the Navy as a Captain. I asked him, what does he like to read? He thought for a moment, and then noted that he liked the writings of Jeane Kirkpatrick. I said nothing.
For the uninitiated, Kirkpatrick’s heyday was during the Reagan years of the 1980s, and she passed away in 2006. Simply put, this SES couldn’t cite anything recent… like in the last 15-20 years… that he had read…READ MORE…
Hunter Biden is a Convicted Felon
Biden was found guilty on both counts related to lying on ATF Form 4473, which asks in Question 11(e), “Are you an unlawful user of, or addicted to, marijuana or any depressant, stimulant, narcotic drug, or any other controlled substance?”
Hunter answered “No” and the evidence proved that he was seeking and using illegal drugs in the days immediately before and after his completion of that form…READ MORE…
Parillo Examines Federalist 17 to 19
In his examination of Federalist 17-19, John Parillo looks at the discussion of balance between individual and state liberties vs Federal Powers.
In Federalist 17, Hamilton addresses the concern that, while the new Federal government must have authority over individuals as well as states, it would not get involved in things where it does not belong like justice between individuals within a state, or agriculture because these kinds of items “can never be desirable cares of a general jurisdiction.” [1] To attempt to control those items at the national level would, “contribute nothing to the dignity, to the importance, or to the splendor of the national government.”
Hamilton believed that the states would remain preeminent because of something that we explored in our discussions about Aristotle. …READ MORE…
The Role of Cyber Warfare in 5th Generation Warfare; Lessons from the Russian Invasion of Ukraine
The Russian invasion of Ukraine in February 2022 demonstrated the increasing significance of cyber warfare within the context of 5th generation warfare.
This form of warfare emphasizes the integration of cyber operations, electronic warfare, disinformation campaigns, and other non-traditional tactics to achieve strategic objectives without solely relying on conventional military force. The coordinated cyber attacks on Ukrainian communications infrastructure highlight how these digital strategies can be deployed to disrupt and destabilize a nation ahead of and during physical invasions.
One of the most notable cyber operations occurred on the morning of the invasion, when Russia deployed the AcidRain malware against Viasat satellite modems and routers. This attack effectively erased data and disabled thousands of terminals, leading to a significant loss in communications for Ukrainian forces…READ MORE…
The Left Destroyed the Institutions They Now Need
Isn’t it ironic that the commies sowed the seeds of their own destruction when they sought revolution by corrupting our institutions. Now they control institutions with little influence over the American people.
Well, Trump is now a convict – at least until the appeals courts weigh in. His campaign donations are rolling in, Silicon Valley business leaders are coming out in support, and people who never voted for the Donald are pledging their vote to him. Oh, and the American commies have hit an insanity triggering level of rage. They don’t understand – and won’t accept – that they aren’t getting a different outcome after doing the same thing over and over. They keep prosecuting the Donald to show us he’s a criminal, and yet the odds of him winning the next election keep going up.
They think we’re either not paying attention, or we want a criminal for President. It has pushed them to the point that they’ve even resorted to sending “Raging Bull” De Niro out to insist that Trump’s trial wasn’t political – from outside the courthouse where Trump was being tried. But unfortunately for them, his uncensored rage just came across as unhinged. Maybe they can get “Meathead” Reiner to put a better spin on it…READ MORE…
Fat chick - Alabama's Mass Psychosis: A Woke Reality Check
In an era where the concept of "woke" has permeated every aspect of public life, Alabama seems to have taken a plunge into a state of mass psychosis
This collective delusion manifests most vividly in the way we now approach competitions designed to showcase the best of human potential. These contests, traditionally aimed at celebrating intelligence, talent, and overall excellence, have taken a peculiar turn. Are we really to believe that a young lady, struggling with severe health issues, represents the pinnacle of human achievement?…READ MORE…
