“Oct 7 2023”

A group of pro-Palestinian demonstrators tried to disrupt Christmas weekend shopping in San Francisco’s Union Square on Saturday in the latest attack on the Christian holiday, seen by radical leftists as an example of bourgeois complacency.

WASHINGTON—President Biden urged Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to halt a pre-emptive strike against Hezbollah forces in Lebanon days after Hamas militants’ Oct. 7 assault on southern Israel, warning that such an attack could spark a wider regional war.

Israel had intelligence—which the U.S. deemed unreliable—that Hezbollah attackers were preparing to cross the border as part of a multipronged attack, pushing some of Israel’s more hawkish officials to the brink, officials said.

Israeli warplanes were in the air awaiting orders when Biden spoke to Netanyahu on Oct. 11 and told the Israeli prime minister to stand down and think through the consequences of such an action, according to people familiar with the call.

Justin Trudeau’s Liberals need to spend some time over the holidays thinking about the old saying, “show me who your friends are, and I’ll tell you who you are.” Because when Hamas leadership releases a video publicly thanking you for your support, it should be a wakeup call that your actions and words are playing into the hands of a genocidal terrorist group with a single-minded mission to eradicate Jews.

Since the Oct. 7 attacks on Israel, Prime Minister Trudeau and many of his senior cabinet ministers have cynically attempted to “both sides” Canada’s response to a brutal massacre of innocents that Hamas vows will happen again and again.

In a recent Free Press article, “We Were Taught to Hate Jews,” five individuals from Muslim families report on the anti-Semitism that was integral to their upbringing. One said: “It’s like asking me how often I drink water. Anti-Semitism was everywhere.” Ayaan Hirsi Ali, in her autobiographical book “Infidel,” reports (page 47):

“In Saudi Arabia, everything bad was the fault of Jews. When the air conditioner broke or suddenly the tap stopped running, the Saudi women next door used to say the Jews did it. The children next door were taught to pray for the health of their parents and the destruction of the Jews. Later, when we went to school, our teachers lamented at length all the evil things Jews had done and planned to do against Muslims. When they were gossiping, the women next door used to say, ‘She’s ugly, she’s disobedient, she’s a whore—she’s sleeping with a Jew.’ Jews were like djinns, I decided. I had never met a Jew. (Neither had these Saudis.)”

Northwestern University will face off against the University of Utah in its NCAA football bowl game on Saturday. During a commercial break, the Jewish advocacy group Alums for Campus Fairness (ACF) will air an advertisement calling out Northwestern University president Michael Schill for his lackadaisical approach to antisemitism on his campus.

This will be Ricarda Louk’s first Christmas without her beloved daughter Shani, the 23-year-old whose death at the hands of Hamas reverberated around the world.

Every year, the pair would visit Ravensburg in southern Germany, where Mrs Louk grew up, so they could spend time with Shani’s grandparents and stay in touch with their German heritage.

But this year there will be an empty seat at the table. “It’s strange…everything is difficult without her,” Mrs Louk told The Telegraph.

The Biden administration’s policies of placating the ruling mullahs of Iran and their proxy, Yemen’s Houthis, have clearly failed. If the Biden administration thought that by rescuing Iran’s economy, which had hit bottom, and removing the Houthis from the list of Foreign Terror Organizations would make both Iran into an ally, the generosity appears to have backfired. Iran’s regime financed and helped plan the invasion of the invasion of Israel by Hamas, which is another Iranian proxy. Iran has been arming the Houthis to target US and its allies in the region, and disrupt the shipping in the Red Sea, and Iran’s militias in Syria and Iraq have fired on US troops more than 100 times just since October 17.

Muslims and violence they just go together …

Another one for the blooper reel.

TORONTO: Not a peaceful protest as @SalmanSima & @sadeghinoor assaulted while their Lion & Sun flag stolen near the south entrance to the Eaton Centre & Daniel Bordman’s phone grabbed.

Any comment @TorontoPolice?pic.twitter.com/cShCiH5Gc9

It appears the protest is on the move. Headed west on Dundas and turning south on Bay.

But reporter @laurenonline managed to capture this, with police chasing and questioning a protestor.

So far, the protest appears to be peaceful. pic.twitter.com/fEe4djSecw

Israel says it has arrested 200 members of the Hamas and Islamic Jihad groups in the past week and taken them into its territory for questioning.

A statement said some of the suspects had been hiding among the civilian population and surrendered voluntarily.

Israel says 700 Palestinian militants have been arrested since it launched its military operation and invasion of Gaza with the aim of eliminating Hamas.
