‘Free Palestine’ is a call for terrorism, not a cry for justice. SAMUEL J. HYDE
The “Free Palestine” chant doesn’t have to make sense. It only needs to unite all against the symbol of “evil” — the one they declared the barrier to a more “just” world: the Jew.
MAY 26, 2025 The Future of Jewish
It is short, rhythmic, and adorned with the sheen of justice.
It dances well on protest placards and hashtags, effortlessly slipping from the mouths of diplomats and demonstrators alike.
And more often than not, it appears alongside the refrain: “From the River to the Sea, Palestine will be free!” There is something enticing about the chant “Free Palestine.”
But this past week, the chant did not come from a megaphone or a protest sign. It came with a gunshot — fired at close range, aimed at two young people: Yaron Lischinsky and his soon-to-be fiancée, Sarah Lynn Milgrim. Their future was shattered in an instant.
It later emerged that both worked at the Israeli embassy. But according to police reports, one fact remains clear: The shooter, Elias Rodriguez, did not follow them. He did not know who they were. He did not know where they worked. He walked up to a Jewish museum and opened fire. He did not see embassy employees. He saw Jews (even though one of the victims was not Jewish).
This should have served as a declaration that revealed the true nature of the chant: that Jewish life, wherever it appears, is fair game. That in the poisoned moral economy of “Free Palestine” — Jewish blood is a form of currency to be spilled, from the blown-up buses of the Second Intifada in Jerusalem to the rockets fired at Tel Aviv; from the massacred communities of southern Israel on October 7th to the Jewish museums of America.
But murder, it seems, is not enough, neither for the ideologues nor for their apologists. And so we are left with the inevitable question: What does it mean? What does this chant, this creed, this performance of outrage actually signify?
The question is almost never answered (not in earnest) and this is no accident. The brilliance of the slogan lies precisely in its refusal to define itself. It is a blank check of virtue, cashed in different currencies by liberals, Islamists, socialists, and tyrants. It does not commit its speaker to clarity. It does not oblige them to history. It certainly does not demand moral consistency. It is, in truth, a slogan designed to mask, not to reveal.
In our age, where slogans are treated as arguments, “Free Palestine” functions less as a political demand than as a tool of ideological laundering. It washes the sins of autocrats and extremists in the waters of anti-imperialism. It allows theocrats to pose as “progressives,” and it empowers those who jail dissidents and ban women’s rights to parade as human rights champions, so long as they all oppose the Zionist.
The chant first emerged from the megaphones of Arab dictators. It was a metaphor for Arab humiliation at the hands of the supposed puppet of Western powers, the Jewish state. It allowed Arab autocrats to mobilize their populations against an external enemy, while silencing dissent at home.
Gamal Abdel Nasser, Egypt’s charismatic strongman from 1954 to 1970, turned freeing “Palestine” into the centerpiece of pan-Arab redemption. For him, “Palestine” was not a homeland in distress; it was a wound inflicted, a rallying cry against humiliation, and, above all, a justification for rule. It allowed him to consolidate power, crush internal opposition, and divert attention from his own domestic failures — all in the name of liberating a land he had no intention of freeing.
Let us not forget: When Jordan controlled the West Bank and Egypt ruled Gaza, there were no calls — none — to “free Palestine.” There were no protests against Arab rule. No chants in Cairo. No demonstrations in Amman. Why? Because “Palestine” was never defined as the West Bank and Gaza. It was, and is, defined as all of Israel.
When the Arab states suffered a staggering defeat at the hands of Israel in 1967, the mythology had to evolve. No longer could Arab nationalism claim to be the liberator of “Palestine.” That torch passed to a new kind of actor: the revolutionary. The Palestine Liberation Organization, founded in 1964 — before Israel “occupied” a single inch of the West Bank or Gaza — made its mission plain: to annihilate the State of Israel and replace it with an Arab one. Their slogans were clear. Their maps were absolute. Their bullets, pointed at school buses and synagogues, did not discriminate.
As prominent Palestinian politician Hanan Ashrawi perceptively noted in 1998:
“The Palestine Liberation Organization’s goal was always the liberation of all of Palestine. Even under the Jordanian and Egyptian administrations, our vision did not shift from the liberation of Palestine as a whole.”
Palestine Liberation Organization leader Yasser Arafat, the master of this “revolutionary” spectacle, repackaged the war against Israel into a global cause. He made terrorism fashionable. He held a rifle in one hand and a “peace” proposal in the other, smiling as the world pretended not to notice which one he actually used. He globalized the chant. He made “Free Palestine” an exportable brand, one that found eager consumers in Western universities and radical movements hungry for a struggle, any struggle, to validate their own moral vanity.
By the 1970s and 1980s, “Free Palestine” had migrated far from its birthplace. It became a rallying cry for foreign revolutionaries. It didn’t matter that most had never met a Palestinian. It didn’t matter that they couldn’t point to Ramallah on a map. What mattered was the image of revolution. The chant was no longer even about land; it was about the revolution, about being on the “right” side of history, even if it meant supporting the wrong people.
It now echoes in the streets of Paris, the lecture halls of Cambridge, and the protests of New York. But its essence remains unchanged. The visuals at every one of these protests confirm this. The placards don’t show two flags. They show one map. The chants are not about democracy in Ramallah. They are about vengeance in Jaffa and burning Tel Aviv. The key hoisted in the air is not symbolic of aspiration. It is a demand for reversal, a fantasy of “return” that would mean the demographic destruction of Israel as a Jewish state.
I remember hearing the chant in English for the first time in South Africa, back in 2011. University students screamed the slogan (and others) like “From Ferguson to Palestine.” It made no sense. What did Ferguson, Missouri have to do with Israel or “Palestine”? Let alone a university campus at the southern tip of Africa.
And that is the point. It doesn’t have to make sense. It only needs to unite all against the symbol of “evil” — the one they declared the barrier to a more “just” world: the Jew.
We should know this. Very few of its chanters, if any, are willing to address what the chant means in the language in which it was born. In Arabic, there is no vagueness. The original chant is: Min al-ma’ ila al-ma’, Falasteen Arabiya. (“From the water to the water, Palestine is Arab.”) Not Palestinian, but Arab. Not sovereign, nor half-Jewish, but conquered.
For many Westerners, chanting “Free Palestine” is a declaration of moral clarity. But in practice, it is a confession. They are not asked to explain how peace would be built. They are not asked to acknowledge the consequences of Hamas’ rule, the corruption of the Palestinian Authority, or the jihadist incitement taught to Palestinian children. They are not asked to think. They are only asked to shout in rage.
If one truly cares about the Palestinian people (even if that’s all one cares about), a few questions must be asked: Free from what? From jihadist militias? From foreign manipulation? From a failed education system that grooms children for martyrdom? From the parasitic Palestinian leadership that siphons billions in aid and stifles dissent? Free from Westerners shooting Jews in the streets of Washington, D.C. while evoking its name?
We know the answer. So do its chanters.
It means none of that.

The ‘Two-State Solution’ to Kill Jews, Destroy Israel by Bassam Tawil
May 26, 2025 at 5:00 am
- After the 2007 Hamas takeover, the Gaza Strip became an independent Palestinian state controlled by Hamas, with its own government, parliament, police force, and multiple armed groups. The Hamas rulers of the Gaza Strip, in addition, had exclusive control over the border with Egypt, which was also abandoned by Israel.
- In the absence of any Israeli military or civilian presence inside Gaza, Hamas had a chance to turn the coastal strip into a prosperous area, a “Singapore” or “Dubai” on the Mediterranean. Instead, the terror group chose to manufacture and smuggle weapons, including rockets and missiles, and invest tens of millions of dollars in building a vast network of tunnels for stockpiling its weapons, facilitating the concealed movement of terrorists, and providing shelter for its leaders and members.
- [T]he war is continuing because of Hamas’s refusal to release the remaining Israeli hostages, relinquish control over the Gaza Strip and lay down its weapons. Hamas, backed and armed by Iran, is determined to fight to the last Palestinian because its primary goal is to destroy Israel and replace it with an Islamist state.
- For more than a decade, these payments [to the Palestinian “pay-for-slay” program] have amounted to more than $300 million annually. Last year, the PA’s payments increased by $1.3 million per month. The murder of Jews is what the European Union and many European countries have been funding.
- By advocating a “two-state solution,” France, Canada and Britain are essentially authorizing a genocide.
- Before reviving their idea, the French, Canadians and British need to look at the results of all of the polls. They consistently show that most Palestinians support Hamas and the armed struggle against Israel. The last thing Palestinians and Israelis need now is to transplant the failed Gaza model onto the West Bank.
After the 2007 Hamas takeover, the Gaza Strip became an independent Palestinian state controlled by Hamas, with its own government, parliament, police force, and multiple armed groups. The Hamas rulers of the Gaza Strip, in addition, had exclusive control over the border with Egypt, which was also abandoned by Israel.

(Photo by Mohammed Abed/AFP via Getty Images)
As the Hamas-Israel war in the Gaza Strip enters its 20th month, France, Britain and Canada have revived the talk about the need to establish a Palestinian state. In a joint statement in mid-May, the leaders of the three countries proclaimed:
“We are committed to recognizing a Palestinian state as a contribution to achieving a two-state solution and are prepared to work with others to this end.”
Next month, the United Nations is scheduled to host an international conference, co-chaired by France and Saudi Arabia, to advance the idea of a “two-state solution” between Israel and the Palestinians.
According to the UN:
“As outlined in General Assembly resolution 79/81, the Conference will produce an action-oriented outcome document entitled ‘Peaceful settlement of the question of Palestine and implementation of the two-State solution.'”
“Indeed, only the implementation of a two-state solution will restore peace, prosperity and security for Israelis, Palestinians, and the entire region,” Anne-Claire Legendre, advisor to the French president for the Middle East and North Africa, said in a statement on May 23.
“The June [UN] Conference must mark a transformative milestone for the effective implementation of the two-state solution. Within the framework of this conference, we will work with everybody who wishes to be involved to craft a roadmap for peace and security for all, based on two states, Israel and Palestine, living side by side in peace and security within secure and recognized borders.”
Any talk about a “two-state solution” in the aftermath of the October 7, 2023 Hamas-led attack on Israel is a sick joke. The “two-state solution” died on that day, when thousands of Hamas terrorists and “ordinary” Palestinians from the Gaza Strip invaded Israel, murdered 1,200 people and wounded thousands. Another 251 Israelis were kidnapped to the Gaza Strip, where 58 – dead and alive – are still held as hostages.
In many respects, before October 7, the Gaza Strip was an independent and sovereign Palestinian state controlled by the Iran-backed terrorist group, Hamas.
In 2005, Israel withdrew from the entire Gaza Strip and handed it over, unconditionally, to the Palestinian Authority (PA) headed by Mahmoud Abbas. Less than two years later, Hamas staged a violent coup, toppling the PA and seizing full control over Gaza and its two million Palestinian residents.
After the 2007 Hamas takeover, the Gaza Strip became an independent Palestinian state controlled by Hamas, with its own government, parliament, police force, and multiple armed groups. The Hamas rulers of the Gaza Strip, in addition, had exclusive control over the border with Egypt, which was also abandoned by Israel.
In the absence of any Israeli military or civilian presence inside Gaza, Hamas had a chance to turn the coastal strip into a prosperous area, a “Singapore” or “Dubai” on the Mediterranean. Instead, the terror group chose to manufacture and smuggle weapons, including rockets and missiles, and invest tens of millions of dollars in building a vast network of tunnels for stockpiling its weapons, facilitating the concealed movement of terrorists, and providing shelter for its leaders and members.
On October 7, during a de facto ceasefire, Hamas terrorists and thousands of “ordinary” Palestinians breached the border with Israel with the purpose of slaughtering and abducting as many Jews as possible.
The Israeli towns and villages near the border with the Gaza Strip that were invaded by the Palestinians were not “illegal settlements.” Rather, they were in Israel proper, within its internationally recognized borders. The Israelis murdered and wounded on that day were not “illegal settlers.” Rather, they were Israeli citizens residing within Israel’s borders.
To many Palestinians, any Israeli is considered a “settler” and an appropriate target for murder, especially under the Palestinian Authority’s lucrative “pay-for-slay” jobs-program set up under Mahmoud Abbas. The more Jews you murder, the larger the payments. For more than a decade, these payments have amounted to more than $300 million annually. Last year, the PA’s payments increased by $1.3 million per month. The murder of Jews is what the European Union and many European countries have been funding (see, for instance, here and here).
Ironically and tragically, many of the Israelis who were butchered and kidnapped on October 7 were peace activists. They believed in the “two-state solution.” Some had even volunteered driving sick Palestinians from the Gaza Strip for medical treatment in Israeli hospitals.
Yocheved Lifschitz, an 85-year-old Israeli peace activist who was kidnapped and later freed by Hamas, confronted Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar during a visit to hostages in a tunnel. She asked him: “Aren’t you ashamed of having done this to people who have always worked for peace with the Palestinians?”
Vivian Silver, a Canadian-Israeli peace activist, was murdered in the Hamas-led attack on October 7. For many years, she worked within her kibbutz, Be’eri, to organize programs to help Gazans, such as job training, and ensuring that Gazan construction workers at the kibbutz were paid fairly. Silver was also the co-founder of Women Wage Peace, a grassroots interfaith organization. She also volunteered with Road to Recovery and Project Roxana to transport Gazan patients to Israeli hospitals.
The Palestinians who invaded Israel on October 7 did not distinguish between one Israeli and another. They did not care whether the Israelis they murdered supported a “two-state solution” or not. They did not even distinguish between Israeli Jews and Israeli Arabs. Notably, 20 Israeli Arabs were murdered during the attacks or by Hamas rocket launches in the ensuing days. There were also 71 foreign victims on October 7, mostly Thai workers.
The October 7 invasion should be seen as a declaration of war on Israel by the Hamas-controlled Palestinian state in the Gaza Strip. Hamas planned and initiated this war since before 2020. It has brought death and destruction not only on Israelis, but also on the Palestinian residents of the Gaza Strip.
Twenty months later, the war is continuing because of Hamas’s refusal to release the remaining Israeli hostages, relinquish control over the Gaza Strip and lay down its weapons. Hamas, backed and armed by Iran, is determined to fight to the last Palestinian because its primary goal is to destroy Israel and replace it with an Islamist state.
Under the current circumstances, those who talk about a “two-state solution” to achieve peace and prosperity between Israelis and Palestinians are actually seeking to reward Hamas for perpetrating the worst crime against Jews since the Holocaust.
By pushing for a “two-state solution,” France, Canada and Britain are sending a message to Hamas and other Palestinians that October 7 was worthwhile because it will bring them an independent and sovereign state.
By advocating a “two-state solution,” France, Canada and Britain are essentially authorizing a genocide.
There is another problem: Can these countries or the UN guarantee that a Palestinian state in the West Bank would not be used in the future as a launching pad to attack Israel? Of course not.
Whether Hamas will officially admit it or not, that is the main reason it, and its backers in Iran and Qatar, want a “state.” Do you think they want it to grow avocadoes?
There is no doubt that a Palestinian state would be controlled by Hamas or other extremist Palestinians who do not believe in Israel’s right to exist. A poll published earlier this month showed that if presidential elections in the Palestinian Authority were held today, Hamas leader Khaled Mashaal would win 68% of the votes, compared to 25% for the incumbent Mahmoud Abbas. When asked which political party or movement they supported, the largest percentage (32%) said they preferred Hamas, followed by Abbas’s ruling Fatah faction (21%). Twelve percent selected third parties, and 34% said they do not support any of them or do not know.
If new PA parliamentary elections were held today, the poll showed, Hamas would win 43% of the votes as opposed to 28% for Fatah. The poll also found that 40% of the Palestinians believe that Hamas is the most deserving of representing and leading the Palestinian people, while only 19% believe that Fatah is the most deserving.
The so-called two-state solution, sadly, is only a recipe for more violence, terrorism and bloodshed — not security, stability and peace.
Before reviving their idea, the French, Canadians and British need to look at the results of all of the polls. They consistently show that most Palestinians support Hamas and the armed struggle against Israel. The last thing Palestinians and Israelis need now is to transplant the failed Gaza model onto the West Bank.
Bassam Tawil is a Muslim Arab based in the Middle East. His work is made possible through the generous donation of a couple of donors who wished to remain anonymous. Gatestone is most grateful.

When ‘Never Again’ becomes a slogan, Jews forget what it really means. by David Mandel
“Never again!” should stand as a warning to all Jews, not as a source of comfort.
MAY 25, 2025 Future of Jewish
Future of Jewish has an interesting name.
Recently, it got me thinking, both about the name as a construct and about the actual future of Jewish.
Let’s start with the name. It’s not called “Future of Judaism” or “Future of the Jews.” It’s Future of Jewish.
But what exactly is Jewish?
It’s inexact and changing. If it wasn’t adapting over time, we wouldn’t need to focus on its future. Like the trail of spent empires, it would merely persist until it persisted no more. We can write endlessly about the future of Jewish precisely because it isn’t static and is far from spent.
“Jewish” is in flux. This is partly because Jews themselves are disproportionately dynamic transformers of the world. Rewind history and you’ll find them as the constructors of the first Abrahamic religion.
Fast forward to the modern era, and you will find that Jews, who comprise a mere 0.2 percent of the world’s population, earned 22 percent of the Nobel prizes. That’s 110 times or roughly two orders of magnitude greater than their proportion in the world population. It’s no fluky streak either, since it is recorded over roughly a century and a quarter.
Nor are their contributions restricted to a particular area. Jews earned 19 percent of chemistry prizes, 25 percent of physics prizes, 26 percent of medicine or physiology prizes, 41 percent of economics prizes, 13 percent of literature prizes, and 8 percent of peace prizes. Not bad.
Jewish is also in flux because of perennial Jew-hatred, the oldest of hatreds. The Jews’ adaptations to persecution led to their dispersal from our ancestral homeland, Eretz Yisrael (the Land of Israel).
In foreign lands, they learned new languages and adapted to new trades and professions, all while remembering their rich heritage. Those who are under adaptive pressure must be smarter than those not under such pressure to survive, let alone thrive.
Yet, Jews responded to such pressures and prejudicial handicaps time and again by excelling within the societies they entered, while maintaining a focus on the zachor (remembrance) of where their people came from and what they had collectively endured.
The dynamism, productivity, and explosive creativity of Jewish life are driven by Jewish adaptability to the contemporary conditions of Jew-hatred, which ebb and flow through history. I’m not saying that what makes “Jewish” special is only an adaptive response to hatred, but I do believe that both Jews and Jew-haters alike underestimate how much their interactions over time shape Jewish exceptionalism. It may be impossible to tease the contributions apart.
Some might say: Okay, for the Jew-hater, I get it. They don’t see that their hatred drives our adaptive reflexes and, ultimately, makes us stronger, even though it’s been this way now for thousands of years. The haters don’t see that their hatred breeds more hatred precisely because it fails to resolve their quest to destroy what they envy. They wish to smash Jewishness into dust but consume themselves in the process.
But, surely, some might say, Jews get all this. They know that the long history of Jewish persecution made their parents and grandparents physically and mentally nibble (provided they weren’t wiped out). But if this were true, why was the Jewish community so surprised by the explosion of antisemitism, notably in the West, on and after October 8th?
And why, in the 1930s and 1940s, were German Jews who felt like true Germans or Hungarian Jews who felt like true Hungarians (to give two examples of many) surprised when their status as equals was removed and, again, when their status as humans worthy of life was finally revoked?
The colorful evolutionary biologist, Robert Trivers, once described walking down a Manhattan street by the side of a beautiful young woman who he is enjoying the pleasure of talking to, only to be interrupted when he noticed a decrepit old man on her other side reflected in the storefronts’ window panes keeping pace with him. Moments later, he realizes the man is him ruining his experience.
To some extent, we all wear rose-colored glasses and deceive ourselves. Jews are no exception. We prefer the story in which Jewish exceptionalism is a mix of genetic and cultural good fortune, sprinkled with a healthy dose of self-focused, agentic attributions for success. This is just human nature, and what social psychologists call the self-serving bias.
German Jews in the 1930s knew about earlier pogroms, and Jews in 2023 knew about the Holocaust and the attendant Jewish disbelief. It’s why we sloganized “Never again!” Self-deception rather than ignorance is the cause of our surprise.
The inherent danger of sloganizing “Never again!” is it can reassure us that the worst for Jews is behind us. And perhaps worse, it can reassure us that it will never be relatively much worse than it currently is.
“Never again!” should stand as a warning to all, not as a source of comfort. Because, if we take it as a mere slogan, thinking that we’re over the past and that we can safely declare “Never again!” as if declaring a victory over a long oppressive past, we will only be setting ourselves up for surprise attacks such as those we witnessed on October 7th and thereafter.
Wouldn’t it be nice if “Never again!” meant we won and that the fight (at least the serious fight) was over?
But, in reality, and for the sake of collective self-preservation, it must be an injunction to be constantly vigilant. Of course, that’s easier said than done. Just as the adversities caused by Jew-hatred spur Jewish adaptation, the periodic abatement of such hatred triggers a mental adaptation. We relax and believe we are relatively safe. That won’t happen here. That won’t happen now. This adaption is normal and the failure to adapt in this way would be the hallmark of a trauma victim.
We don’t want the future of Jewish to be the experience of a trauma victim either, so we must face the fact that there are irreconcilable tradeoffs in Jewish experience. We must be vigilant and adaptive to ensure a positive future of Jewish, but we do not want to mis-calibrate such responses to the point where the future of Jewish is neurotic and paranoid. We want the future of Jewish to be thriving, not merely existing.
Jews in the West born after the Holocaust (like me) have learned to relax. If October 7th hadn’t been followed by the international resurgence of Jew-hatred of October 8th and thereafter, we would have been angered and saddened, but we would have continued to relax because it would have been about Israeli Jews, not about us in the Diaspora.
It is for the same reason that children of Holocaust survivors could relax knowing much about what their parents had endured, and yet feel as if they were fortunate to live in the post-madness world of “Never again!”
October 8 thchanged that. We saw something happening around us that reminded us of what we knew from the stories our parents or grandparents told us, as well as documentaries and history books. The sense of surprise was due to an expectancy violation: This wasn’t supposed to be happening now. This wasn’t consistent with “Never again!” As the days and weeks wore on, we were not sure what to expect. Would the response, which seemed like insanity, be tamped down — or would it escalate?
The hatred didn’t simmer down; it boiled over. As it did, Jews in the Diaspora reconnected in a direct way with the long history of Jewish suffering and insecurity. All of a sudden the fact that our numbers are small — and therefore our political power is small — mattered.
When police in Western country after Western country stood by while angry mobs chanted “From the River to the Sea, Palestine will be free!” (namely, Jew-free) and “Globalize the intifada!” (namely, kill Jews in the Diaspora), Jews in the West knew that their conception of permanent safety was an illusion.
If there were any lingering illusions that this boil-over could turn violent, last week’s cold-blooded murder of Sarah Milgram and Yaron Lischinsky (two employees of the Israeli embassy who were attending an event at the Capital Jewish Museum in Washington, D.C.) should have shattered these illusions once and for all. The suspect, Elias Rodriguez, chanted the familiar zombie drone, “Free, free Palestine!” as he was taken away.
This is the cyclical rude awakening of the Jews that permeates history. We know our history, but still, we are caught feeling disbelief that this is happening now.
It’s unwelcome news, that’s for sure. We don’t know how ugly things will get, but we do know there are ominous signs all around us. We worry more now about the future of Jewish than we did two years ago — and not only as it affects our personal lives, but as it affects our people as a whole.
However, the affronts Jews experienced on October 7th, October 8th, and every day since must rekindle the adaptive spark that has helped guide our people through the darkest of times. Our challenge now is to recalibrate our perceptions and beliefs so that they align with the current reality. The long “end of history” for Jews in the West is over.
Hence, the future of Jewish is a return to creative adaptation, to showing the contemporary Jew-haters of the world the unintended second- and third-order effects that Jew-hatred causes: an explosion of Jewish flourishing.

“Allahu Akbar” and “Free Palestine”: It’s the Clash of Civilizations, idiots Giulio Meotti
Threatened churches, Islamized schools, converted temples, massacres in Jewish museums: Islamic culture does not think the way we do. Opinion.
May 23, 2025 Israel National News – A group of young people storm a church in Avignon, France, shouting “Allahu Akbar” and threatening to set it on fire. The police are forced to put the church under protection. Don Milan says that the young people hurled insults against Christianity. “They shouted ‘Allahu Akbar’ and repeated to us several times: ‘We will return and burn your church'”.
In Rouen, Normandy, other “young people” entered during Mass and slaughtered the priest, Jacques Hamel.
There are countless churches under police protection in France, from Indre to Yvelines.
A few hours later, another man enters the Jewish Museum in Washington to kill two Israeli officials, an engaged young couple, murdered while he is shouting “Free Palestine.” This time, the terrorist is the classic representative of the left that has devastated Western streets in recent months: Black Lives Matter, woke, radical socialist, against Amazon, “Free Gaza” (not from Hamas, obviously) and pro-Islamist.
A communist who kills on behalf of Islamic terrorists. Nothing new.
Who instilled in him the idea that “Liberating Palestine” means shooting Jewish diplomats? We know very well who.
“Allahu Akbar” and “Free Palestine” repeat the murderers and their useful idiots in the same demonstrations: the clash of civilizations is here and now, in the West. They tell us, they repeat it, they announce it. And they move on to the facts.
“Allahu Akbar” was also shouted by the “Free Palestine” terrorist who just killed a pregnant Israeli woman in Samaria. Sure, she was a “settler”, right? But the woke terrorist of Washington also killed an Israeli woman committed to dialogue and peace with the Arabs. His other victim is an Israeli Christian born in Nuremberg, Germany.
When they make the gesture of cutting the throat they mean it literally. To Jews, Christians, to all Westerners.
And after the massacre in Washington, France immediately rushed to raise the level of protection for synagogues.
Avignon is the ancient city on the Rhone enclosed by medieval walls, where the centuries hover in the air. In the 14th century, seven popes lived in this nest of intrigue and political crisis.
But today parts of Avignon, in the chilling investigation of Paris Match, are known as “the city of Salafists”.
“Most passers-by look alike, black veils for women, baggy Afghan trousers for men,” says Paris Match. “Most wear the believer’s beard, long and sometimes dyed with henna, like in the time of the Prophet. It feels like going back fourteen centuries. The segregation of the sexes is respected: hairdressers for women, inaccessible to men; bars full of men, inaccessible to women. They serve coffee, tea, lemonade… Everything, except alcohol. It’s a mini-Islamic republic”.
In Paderno Dugnano, a town of 50,000 inhabitants in the province of Milan, the temple of the Witnesses has just been bought to make it a mosque.
Threatened churches, Islamized schools, converted temples, massacres in Jewish museums: Islamic culture does not think the way we do. In their lands of origin, some lose and some win. They intend to win and have enlisted parts of the West to ensure it.
Like those of “Make Europe Anti-Fascist Again”, as those of the radical chic Milanese Italian left were saying a few days ago. And those who threaten churches, Islamize schools, convert temples and kill Jews and Christians in a Jewish museum, respond: “Make Europe Islamic Again”.
The Biden coverup scandal, and my book of revelations Jack Engelhard
Sign here, those people said, and he signed.
May 23, 2025, 1:22 Israel National News
My friend Harlan wants to know why my book, “Writings,” isn’t a bestseller. “After all, Jack, you wrote it first, and you wrote it best.”
He goes on, “Why let Jake Tapper and the rest of them reap all the glory? From one op-ed to another, you nailed it on Biden and his four years of corruption.”
“Writings” simply didn’t get lucky…at least not yet, and besides, writing is not supposed to be a competitive sport.
But now it is, on the hottest topic in the land, The Great Cover-Up that let Biden and the Democrats get away with four years of mendacity.
This caper was an Inside Job, fostered by radicals, to take over the government and the country…over and above a mentally unfit Joe Biden…or was it Hunter and Jill?
Or was it these three stooges who ran it together as one? This was the time to pull the plug on us from Russia or China or Iran. But God blessed America.
Live or die…it’s a toss of the dice. Read this to see how moment by moment our survival depends upon the mercy of the angels…thumbs up or thumbs down.
We’ve been lucky so far in this casino of our lives.
Anyway, the heist was the work of the Deep State…the extreme far left…that face-less, nameless, bureaucracy that does its damage under the hood.
So no wonder millions of illegals were being welcomed to overrun the country.
No wonder Antony Blinken kept visiting Israel to warn Netanyahu against winning the war. His first duty was to protect those “innocent Gazans.”
Was that really the policy of Joe Biden? Or was it the policy of Ilhan Omar?
Sign here, those people said, and he signed.
I accuse the media of collaboration with the worst president ever. The media knew that Biden was dead man walking, but kept it to themselves.
How could so many people be so crooked…and now the truth comes out starting with that book by Jake Tapper, soon to be followed by an avalanche of inside scoops.
Too late. As King Solomon has it, “A crooked thing can’t be made straight.”
The White House Press Corps was complicit when it counted. The wrong man was in the White House for four years, so plain to see. I wrote it as an outsider, one op-ed after another, until, at the urging of the late, great Bonny Kaye, I gathered a selection into a book, now published as “Writings.”
In the column, “Regrets, Anyone?”, published, June, 27, 2021, I wrote, “In the Times, for example, you will find not a single editorial or op-ed critical of him. Of course, none dare.”
“Nearly every headline is worshipful. Don’t blame Joe. It is the media that can’t be trusted to provide us with a square accounting of Biden’s performance, warts and all.”
“Such an analysis would be helpful for we the people, and for Biden himself. Otherwise, how do we know what needs to be fixed?”
“Even in North Korea the leader gets approval only at 99.9 percent. Just to make it appear legit. Can Biden be so absolutely perfect? He’d be the first.”
Then, in March 21, 2022, I wrote, “Living with the crime of the century,” and in it, these passages:
“The biggest losers are the American people.”
“What matters is that the 2020 Election was cooked by the media to deny voters the right to the truth.”
“So they voted eyes wide shut, and that’s as close as it gets to the crime of the century.”
“You should care if you care about the sanctity of the vote…which was dashed by a code of silence among the Times, the colossus of social media and the networks.”
Of the 112 op-eds contained in the book, my favorite? “Me, and Esther Williams.”

Who deserves what? Howard Rotberg
Why do Palestinian Arabs deserve a state? And what do Jews deserve? Dead babies? Dead young couples? Opinion.
May 24, 2025 Israel National News – With every act of terror by the terrorist Palestinian Arabs, Americans, including Jewish Americans, parrot the idea that this proves that Palestinian Arabs deserve a state. As we have seen in the case of October 7th, the more barbaric and obscene the terrorist attack, the more frantic these morally confused Americans, Canadians and Europeans become to reward these barbarians with a state, money, humanitarian aid and the welcome to immigrate to our cities and countries.
Once again, we see this sort of thing in the murder of a young couple who worked in the Washington D.C. Israeli embassy and were attending an event at the Jewish museum where they were shot.
JoJo Kalin, a board member of the American Jewish Committee who helped organize the event, said she did not witness the shooting but felt a “sense of guilt” about what happened.
Said Ms. Kalin: “I’m not going to lose my humanity over this or be deterred. And that Israelis and Palestinians both still deserve self-determination and [it is] just deeply ironic that that’s what we were discussing,” she said.
It may well be that Americans and Jewish Americans who think that giving up land to a genocide-supporting death cult is a virtuous course of action should indeed have a sense of guilt for their submission to Islamism.
The event was billed as a networking opportunity to bring Jewish young professionals and the diplomatic community together. Its description said humanitarian aid organizers responding to humanitarian crises in the Middle East, including Gaza, were invited.
Those who want Israel to give more humanitarian aid to those civilians of whom at least 70% support Hamas and the goal of removing the Jewish presence in historical Israel seldom understand that Israel, almost alone in the moral issues surrounding war, is willing and does provide such aid – and the criticism of Israel relates to how much should be the aid and how fast it should be given and how much is controlled by Hamas which steals much of it and sells it back at exorbitant prices to those who were intended to receive it.
But never mind – leftist, liberal, non-Orthodox Jews need to continue their virtue signaling and moral relativism – where the irony is not that peace through more aid to Hamas was discussed but that Jews are now so confused that they think that Jewish values are enhanced by support for Hamas and other violent Muslims.
Of course, American left-liberal Jews who supported Obama and then Kamala Harris did not notice that Obama’s confusion was a turning point in the history of American culture and values. Obama’s “Muslim apology tour” of the Middle East upon his taking office was the beginning of legitimizing American self-hatred.
Obama said: “I have come here (Egypt) to seek a new beginning between the United States and Muslims around the world; one based upon mutual interest and mutual respect; and one based upon the truth that America and Islam are not exclusive and need not be in competition. Instead, they overlap, and share common principles – principles of justice and progress; tolerance and the dignity of all human beings (my emphasis – and my incredulity).”
To any student of the Middle East, where most Islamic countries do not allow the residence or citizenship of Jews, and do not extend to Christians or Jews full rights, this talk of “mutual respect” made no sense at all. Then, Obama’s equivalency between American notions of justice, tolerance and human dignity to that found in Muslim countries was quite simply shocking. So was his invitation to several members of the Muslim Brotherhood, a terrorist-supporting Islamist organization, to attend his speech.
The proposed solution of Vice-President Harris to the Israel/Arab issue was: a two- state solution with a rebuilding of Gaza where the Palestinian Arabs have security, self-determination and the dignity they so rightly deserve.”
But are Kamala Harris and some leftist Jews correct that the Palestinian Arabs deserve dignity and self-determination?
First, it must be stressed that the Palestinian Arabs already have a sovereign state due to the pullout of Israel from Gaza in 2005. Israel reserved the right to control certain security matters, which was certainly wise, in the light of October 7th. Then on the ‘West Bank’, the Oslo Accords gave partial sovereignty to the Palestinian Arabs which was hopefully to lead in the future to more sovereignty. Did they conduct themselves so as to show that they deserved dignity and self-determination?
Second, we must ask what does dignity really mean?
The Cambridge Dictionary leads off with two definitions:
calm, serious, and controlledbehaviour that makes peoplerespect you.
the quality of a person that makes him or her deserving of respect, sometimes shown in behavior or appearance
We have a problem here: This dictionary suggests that dignity comes from the kind of behavior that makes people respect you but Hillary Clinton in a noteworthy speech said we should respect our enemies – so that means everyone is deserving of respect and then everyone would deserve dignity.
Does that include terrorists who butcher babies, torture and sexually abuse women of every age, take hostages and starve them and establish legal charters that call for the murder of their neighbors the Jews?
And now we are told by folks like Ms. Kalin that the Palestinian Arabs deserve a state. And what do Jews deserve ? Dead babies? Dead young couples?

Genocide in South Africa Going Global – Alex Newman By Greg Hunter
May 24, 2025 USAWatchdog.com
Journalist Alex Newman, author of the popular book “Deep State” and the recent best-selling book called “Indoctrinating Our Children to Death,” is warning people to pay attention to the genocide of white farmers in South Africa. What is happening there is something the Deep State wants to take global in their tyrannical takeover of all life and property on Earth. Newman, who once lived in South Africa, warns, “What’s happening down there to them is a microcosm, and that’s what they have planned for you, your country, your family and what’s left of the Christian West. . . . What I have documented (in 2012) very clearly and very unambiguously is this racist, murderous, communist program taking place in South Africa was backed by the highest levels of Deep State power. This includes the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR), the US State Department, including their allies and partners in Great Britian, and they all knew the Soviet Union was behind this and other communist governments were behind this. This is a monstrosity piled on a monstrosity and, again, what they are doing to the Afrikaners now (white farmers) they plan to do to you as soon as they get the opportunity. Instead of amalgamating all these nations under a South African government, they want to amalgamate all these nations under a one world system. Barack Obama has said over and over again that he was inspired to get into politics because of what they were doing in South Africa. This all comes together here– and you are next. That’s why it’s important to watch what is happening in South Africa.”
What are the tools the Deep State uses to gain total control? Look no further than the new global UN pandemic treaty and the huge push for climate change laws to give control to a few people at the top. Let’s start with the recently passed UN pandemic treaty which President Trump cancelled for America. Newman says, “They have a clause about ‘misinformation,’ which means you can’t speak out or ask questions about what injections they demand you and your children take. It’s got digital infrastructure . . . . So, they will track everything, which will pave the way for international vaccine passports. . . . It gives exemptions (to drug makers) and fast tracks the same outrageous process that we have seen before in emergency use authorization (EUA). That is whatever crazy concoction they come up with and then tell us all what we need. It is everything that was wrong with Covid on steroids enshrined into international law.”
The Climate Change hoax is equally disturbing. Newman says, “It’s not just our wealth that they are taking. They are taking from us our ability to produce wealth. This dawned on me in Paris. I was at the climate summit there around 2015. You had Barack Obama pledging to slash American CO2 emissions by a third over the next decade. This is essentially chopping American economic activity down. Meanwhile, the Communist Chinese were pledging they were going to keep increasing their CO2 emissions. To their credit, they absolutely lived up to that. . . .So, what happened was as we were shutting down our power plants and stopping energy production in this country . . . this was making manufacturing and business uncompetitive if you were operating in a global market. You could not continue doing business in the United States with energy prices skyrocketing while energy prices in China were stable or going down. They hollowed out our productive capacity and moved it over to Communist China under the scam of ‘Saving the Climate’. . . . That’s what is going on here, and Trump got us out of this whole thing. You cannot overstate the significance of this.”
Newman fears America is much closer to a violent takeover attempt by the Deep State. Newman says, “The Leftists, the totalitarians, the people that want to do to us what they are doing to the South Africans right now want a civil war in this country. A lot of people on our side don’t see this. . . . The don’t realize very dangerous forces are being unleashed across our country. They are preparing for an uprising, a violent revolution and violence in the streets. They are deliberately trying to do this. . . . We just saw this guy shooting a couple of embassy workers, and I think this is just the beginning for what they are preparing. They brought in special operators from Communist China. They brought in intelligence assets and gangsters from Venezuela and Cuba. They are preparing to stir up domestic conflict that we have never seen before. . . . I think we are in very grave danger as a nation, and I don’t say this to scare anybody. The Lord does not give us the spirit of fear. I say this so we can understand it and prepare better for it, and hopefully prevent it. . . . Sun Tzu, the Chinese military expert, said, ‘If you know yourself and you know your enemy, you are going to win every battle.’ We have to have a good understanding of the enemy or we are not going to win.”

Days, Not Weeks: Israel’s Imminent Attack on Iranian Nuclear Sites Gregg Roman
With a Fundamental Impasse on Nuclear Talks, Israeli Officials Have Shifted from Quiet Preparation to Barely Concealed Readiness
May 24, 2025 Middle East Forum
Israel will strike Iran’s nuclear facilities within days.
This sobering conclusion emerges from the convergence of alarming intelligence assessments, failed diplomatic efforts, and lessons from this week’s Middle East Forum (MEF) war game simulation. The Pentagon’s Defense Intelligence Agency now warns that Tehran can produce sufficient weapons-grade uranium for a nuclear device in “probably less than one week.” From Jerusalem’s perspective, this shrinking timeline leaves virtually no margin for error.
The fifth round of U.S.-Iran nuclear talks in Rome has crystallized the impossibility of a negotiated solution. Special Envoy Steve Witkoff’s departure mid-meeting on Friday—officially due to his “flight schedule,” while technical teams remained—signals more than scheduling conflicts. The core dispute remains irreconcilable: Tehran insists on its “right” to enrich uranium domestically, while Washington demands zero enrichment capability.
This fundamental impasse validates what we observed during the Middle East Forum’s annual policy conference in Washington, D.C., from May 19-22. Our war game simulation on Thursday, which brought together seasoned policy experts and MEF supporters to examine a Strait of Hormuz crisis, demonstrated how diplomatic failures can cascade into military action within hours. The Iranian team exploited every hesitation, using negotiations to advance their program while mining the Strait and revealing a clandestine nuclear arsenal. Friday’s diplomatic failure in Rome suggests this pattern continues in reality.
The fifth round of U.S.-Iran nuclear talks in Rome has crystallized the impossibility of a negotiated solution.
On the eve of these talks, Iran took an extraordinary step that should alarm any serious observer. In a letter to the United Nations Secretary-General and the International Atomic Energy Agency, Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi threatened to hide enriched uranium at secret locations if “threats made by the Zionist fanatics persist.” Tehran would implement “special measures for the protection of its nuclear facilities and materials”—a thinly veiled threat to move its most sensitive materials beyond international monitoring.
Israeli officials have shifted from quiet preparation to barely concealed readiness. Mossad chief David Barnea and Strategic Affairs Minister Ron Dermer flew to Rome alongside Witkoff’s talks, tuned to receive immediate briefings on any progress. Their presence accentuated Jerusalem’s determination to understand every diplomatic nuance while military options remained active.
U.S. intelligence has intercepted Israeli communications signaling potential attack plans and observed tangible military movements: forward deployment of specialized munitions, completion of major Air Force exercises, and strike-readiness indicators. As Defense Minister Israel Katz declared, “Iran is more exposed than ever to strikes on its nuclear facilities. We have the opportunity to achieve our most important goal—to thwart and eliminate the existential threat.”
The operational reality is daunting. Any Israeli strike would require a week-long campaign targeting multiple sites: the Natanz enrichment complex, the deeply buried Fordow facility, Isfahan’s uranium conversion plant, and suspected weaponization sites. Israel has methodically degraded Iran’s deterrent capabilities—Hezbollah’s rocket arsenal reportedly reduced by 80 percent, Syrian proxy networks shattered, Hamas isolated after the Gaza war. As one Israeli security official assessed, “Iran’s regional allies lie in tatters.”
Our war game simulation at the MEF conference revealed truths now playing out in real-time. When evidence of weaponized enrichment triggered action in our exercise, events spiraled from GPS disruptions and cyber-attacks to nuclear detonation within three compressed rounds.
“We have the opportunity to achieve our most important goal—to thwart and eliminate the existential threat.” – Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz
China’s simulation role proved particularly instructive. Beijing positioned itself as both Iran’s protector and the Gulf states’ alternative security guarantor, ultimately downing an Israeli aircraft when conflict erupted. This reflects current reality: China continues supplying Iran through sanctions, purchasing discounted oil, and positioning itself to benefit regardless of outcome. Recent U.S. Treasury sanctions revealed Chinese sodium perchlorate shipments to Iran’s missile program through Bandar Abbas—the same port that suffered a mysterious explosion in April.
Russia similarly exploits the crisis for strategic gain. While avoiding direct military involvement, Moscow upgrades Iran’s capabilities and threatens advanced S-400 air defense sales that would substantially complicate Israeli operations. Our simulation’s Russian team seized Arctic territories while others focused on the Gulf—classic strategic opportunism that mirrors Russian President Vladimir Putin’s real-world approach.
President Donald Trump’s position cuts through diplomatic obfuscation: zero enrichment or face consequences. This clarity, combined with implicit Israeli action if negotiations fail, represents sophisticated strategy disguised as simplicity. Yet Tehran’s response has been escalation, not compromise. The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps declared Israel would receive a “devastating and decisive response” to any attack, while Araghchi warned that Washington would be held legally responsible as a “participant” in any Israeli aggression.
The fundamental problem remains structural. Iran views domestic enrichment as non-negotiable sovereignty; Israel and, increasingly, the United States view any Iranian enrichment as an existential threat. Past attempts to paper over this gap—notably, the 2015 Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action—merely delayed the reckoning while Iran advanced its program and regional aggression.
Our war game demonstrated that non-kinetic tools—sanctions, cyber operations, intelligence activities—work only when applied early with international support. Once Iran crosses nuclear thresholds, these measures alone prove insufficient. A paradox emerged: When Israel contemplated strikes seriously, Iran shifted from defiance to urgent negotiation. Demonstrating willingness to use force sometimes provides the only impetus for genuine compromise.
Any Israeli prime minister must weigh [the] terrible but temporary cost against the permanent threat of a nuclear-armed Iran.
Israeli leaders understand the price their nation will pay. Iranian missiles will target Jerusalem, Haifa, and Tel Aviv. Houthis will escalate from Yemen. Revolutionary Guard assets worldwide will activate against Israeli embassies and Jewish communities from Buenos Aires to Bangkok. The domestic front will endure casualties and psychological warfare unseen since 1973. Yet any Israeli prime minister must weigh this terrible but temporary cost against the permanent threat of a nuclear-armed Iran.
Success requires more than strikes alone. Our simulation demonstrated that facilities rebuild, knowledge survives, and determination strengthens under attack without sustained pressure. Israel must drive the nail through nuclear facilities while America must turn the screws on everything else: complete financial isolation, continuous cyber degradation, comprehensive intelligence penetration, and diplomatic quarantine until Iran abandons enrichment entirely.
Washington’s strategic ambiguity—extending diplomatic hands while deploying B-2 bombers to Diego Garcia and transferring bunker-buster bombs to Israel—serves multiple purposes. It reassures Jerusalem, pressures Tehran, and maintains flexibility. Yet this ambiguity has limits. Israeli officials privately warn that absent breakthrough, they will strike unilaterally.
The multilateral context that enabled past agreements has shattered. Russia partners with Iran against Ukraine. China prioritizes displacing American influence over non-proliferation. Europe lacks leverage. Regional players hedge their bets. This leaves the heavy lifting to Washington and Jerusalem, with Oman’s mediation valuable but ultimately unable to bridge fundamental differences.
As Iranian-American journalist and author Masih Alinejad reminded our conference attendees, Iranians deserve better than a regime building centrifuges while citizens cry for bread. This moral dimension clarifies the stakes. The regime will not voluntarily abandon nuclear ambitions—our war game proved it, history confirms it, and Israeli intelligence validates it.
Every indicator points toward military action within days.
Every indicator points toward military action within days. Witkoff’s Rome departure, intelligence reports of uranium relocation threats, degraded Iranian proxy networks, and Israeli military readiness converge toward one conclusion. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, according to the Times of Israel, “is waiting for the nuclear talks to collapse and for the moment Trump will be disappointed … and open to giving him the go-ahead.”
That moment has effectively arrived. Iran’s breakout timeline severely strains the utility of continued negotiation. Each round buys Tehran time while Jerusalem’s patience evaporates. The phrase circulating in Israeli military circles is chillingly simple: It’s now a matter of days, not weeks.
I wish otherwise. I wish diplomacy alone could secure our interests and Israel’s survival. But wishing accomplishes nothing against a regime that threatens annihilation while pursuing the means to achieve it.
The world very soon may awaken to explosions over Iranian nuclear sites—a pivotal moment that will test Western resolve to prevent nuclear proliferation through sustained pressure combining Israeli military action with comprehensive American-led isolation. The alternative includes Iranian nuclear weapons, regional conflagration, and Chinese and Russian strategic gains at American expense.
Sometimes inaction disguised as prudence proves most dangerous. This week tests that truth. May our leaders internalize these lessons before time expires, and may we possess the resolve to see through what must be done.

The JFK Assassination, the Russian Collusion Hoax and the Deep State’s Manipulative Agenda [44:00] JEROME R. CORSI, PH.D.
Dr. Corsi performs a precision deep dive into the deep state then and now
MAY 24, 2025
The assassination of John F. Kennedy is a turning point in American history, not only because many Americans were shocked the popular president was murdered, but the government’s coverup and narrative surrounding it was when the Deep State officially took over the country. The powerful elite within the government at the time were able to go to great lengths to manipulate evidence, set a narrative, get the media to comply, fix the autopsy and silence anyone questioning the official story. From then on, the Deep State found it could forge a direction toward its overall agenda by continuing this tack.
A recent example, as described in his book Coup d’Etat, was the Russian Collusion Hoax and the phony Steel Dossier. While the government tried to force Dr. Corsi, among others, to lie amid the Mueller investigation, it was an orchestrated attempt to spread lies about an anti-establishment presidential candidate (Donald Trump) — someone they are still trying to destroy. The Left, which have become a large subset of both willing and unwitting Deep State Operatives, wound up believing and spreading the narrative until it was eventually proven to be a hoax.
