John Robson: What part of ‘Death to Jews’ do Israel’s critics not understand?

Here we go again, in that dreary cycle where a barrage of Hamas rockets at Israeli civilians causes a barrage of media rhetoric against Israel. What part of “Death to Jews” do they not understand?

Seriously. Most Western media outlets misrepresent the conflict in ways that can only strengthen the hand of those bent on wiping the Jewish state and its inhabitants off the map. From headlines like “Israel pounds Gaza with heavy strikes as conflict enters second week” to sneering insinuations that Biden is retrograde in backing Israel, the press scrupulously avoids noting that the violence began with Hamas and will end, as Golda Meir reputedly said, “when the Arabs will love their children more than they hate us.”

Extreme green ‘keep it in the ground’ movement seizes on IEA warning

The International Energy Agency’s stark position that new oil and gas development must immediately stop to meet global climate goals could boost momentum for governments to restrict fossil fuel production and cause investors to cut off funding for such projects.

“This will strengthen the political argument in many countries for restricting the growth of new oil production,” Bob McNally, president of Rapidan Energy Group and former oil official in the George W. Bush administration, told the Washington Examiner. “It’s going to raise the regulatory risk and scrutiny on oil companies and investors that plan to develop new oil fields.”

Netanyahu: We don’t have a stopwatch to finish Gaza operation

Israel does not have a set time by which it seeks to finish Operation Guardian of the Walls, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said in a briefing to foreign ambassadors on Wednesday.

“We’re not standing with a stopwatch in our hand, rather, we are making sure to meet the goals of this operation,” Netanyahu said in response to a question about when this round of fighting will end, according to a source in the meeting.

Is the Biden administration running an anti-Israel con?

On Saturday, Israel announced that it had evidence that Hamas military intelligence assets were operating out of a building with civilian media offices — in essence, using the media as a shield. Because Hamas turned the building into a military site, it became a legitimate target under international law. So the AP and Al Jazeera lost their propaganda sites. Israel gave detailed information about notifying Biden in advance of the strike. However, on Monday, secretary of state Antony Blinken said there was no such evidence. Does this represent some kind of creepy and dangerous game-playing from the Biden administration?

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.

‘It’s possible someone found us before we found them’: Two retired Navy officers warn

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.

Commenting on the video, an ex-navy officer said that the technology on display is 100 to 1000 years ahead of that possessed by the United States.

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?
