‘Shut Up or Else!’ The True Link between Islam and the Left By Raymond Ibrahim
July 26, 2023 – Despite their many outward differences, Islamic authoritarianism and leftist liberalism are, in fact, very similar, especially in that they brook no dissent.
Here, I’d like to offer a more focused look into their similar modes of operation, especially in the context of belief vs. compliance.
For starters, few Muslims — including some of the most “radical” — really care what anyone else, including Muslims, believes or disbelieves about Islam. This may seem counterintuitive; after all, isn’t Islam draconian and in your face concerning its beliefs, subjugating and even killing those who reject it and its dogmas?
Yes and no. What Islam has always required of both believers and nonbelievers is compliance to its authority. What gets people in trouble is when they say or do anything that can be perceived as a threat to the Islamic order of things.
Consider those two draconian laws that have seen the persecution and slaughter of countless through the ages: apostasy and blasphemy. On the surface, they seem to suggest that Islam is concerned with making sure that no Muslim ceases believing in its message (apostasy), and that no one, Muslim or non-Muslim, dares criticize Islam (blasphemy).
Upon closer inspection, however, it becomes clear that the ultimate reason Islam fears apostasy and blasphemy is not because they reflect disbelief in and disrespect for Islam, but that, left unchecked, they both culminate in undermining Islamic state and society.
A Chat With Stephen Gardner on NATO’s Growing Panic {Video 20:38) By Larry Johnson
Jul. 27, 2023 7:00 am – Stephen Gardner is a new friend and he has an audience approaching 1.5 million. Not too shabby. He is a good interviewer. Stephen gave me the chance to do a full explanation debunking the claim by Biden, Blinken and Sir Lawrence Freedman that Russia has “lost” the war. The fact that the U.S. leaders and the Brit are using the same talking point is a big red flag that this is a specific message the West is trying to plant in the minds of the media and citizens of their respective countries. Have the NATO folks decided to declare “victory” and get the hell out of Ukraine?

Would you let a someone implant a microchip into your hand if you would receive 2,000 dollars a month in return? Klaus Schwab’s WEF plan to implant CBDC’s in your hand is coming to fruition. We’ll give you a universal basic income of 2,000 euros or 2,000 dollars a month if you allow us to put a microchip in your hand? That’s exactly what’s about to happen as part of the roll out of the central bank digital currencies. Klaus Scwab laid out this plan in 2016.

How Israel’s Jewish and other media lie to you Rabbi Prof. Dov Fischer
A reader needs very serious analytic skills to read a news report (Arutz Sheva, which is posting this, is an exception…). Op-ed.
Jul 24, 2023, 9:20 AM (GMT+3) – This article offers a partial guide to cutting through the lies, deceit, and deceptions of what liars and truth-tellers alike call “Journalism.”
1. The Source: Any article on Judaism, Israel, or other Jewish issues that originates from the Jewish Telegraphic Agency (JTA) should be assumed ab initio, unless proven otherwise, to be extreme-left-propaganda against normative Orthodox Judaism and against centrist or conservative political perspectives. The same is true for reports and op-eds originating in Forward and often Times of Israel. Also Hebrew publications like Maariv and Yediot Acharonot (Ynet).
Of course, there are exceptions to everything, and even a broken clock is correct twice daily. These publications invariably employ techniques and tactics discussed below. JTA merits extra attention because they send “news” stories to others as a sort-of “Associated Press” news service. When a fine Jewish publication runs a “news” item or op-ed whose leftist or anti-Orthodox bias surprises you, look whether it originated at JTA.
2. Headlines:Compare “100,000 Demonstrate Against Government Efforts to Suppress Court Freedom” with “Thousands at Tel Aviv Demonstration.” Both headlines are assumed accurate. Which seems larger? In this case, the latter demonstration was larger — as many as 200,000 people, possibly 300,000 — but it was for the government’s proposed reform. See?
Try another: Compare “Six Jews and Arabs Killed in West Bank Shootout” with “Israeli Security Forces Kill 2 Hamas Terrorists After 4 Jews Murdered in Terror Attack.” See?
[Ed.: Notice how Dov Fischer stated in the title that Arutz Sheva (Israel National News) is “an exception”. He did this because otherwise, Rochel Sylvetsky, the Editor, would not have published it. She considers herself to be a one-woman Supreme Court! Known to re-write sections of submitted articles to her satisfaction, and then blocking the author if they complained about it… Israel National News (Arutz Sheva) was originally a right-wing media outlet. Today it is still right-wing-ish, but nevertheless a government rag. This has been proven since the Gush Katif expulsion and through the COVID-19 scamdemic. Dov Fisher knew this when he wisely worded the title of this article. ‘Nuff said.]
Israel’s nightmare is his secret wish Avraham Greenzweig
‘Bodies of Jews killed by Jews’ is not simply a story that Ehud Barak tends to repeat. His choice of this scenario has a message. Op-ed.
Jul 24, 2023, 9:49 AM (GMT+3) – Avraham Greenzweig is a haredi publicist. This article was translated from Hebrew by Rochel Sylvetsky.
Background information for Anglo readers: A shocking video filmed three years ago which has gone viral after being revealed only last week shows former PM Ehud Barak and selected personages, including defense figures, planning a coup against the elected government during the corona epidemic, using the tactics he is employing today This article begins with his words in the film.
“It is well known that I am not overly humble. Objectively, if, heaven forfend, Bibi disappears one day…and we find ourselves facing deterioration with regard to the Hezbollah or Iran and a socio-economic crisis, and someone has to make hard decisions…then objectively I am more suited than anyone else…in the country to take the driver’s seat.”

The Revolt of the Pawns by James Corbett
July 23, 2023 – In early 1980, as the diplomatic fallout from the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan began to play itself out on the grand chessboard, then-US President Jimmy Carter sent his National Security Adviser, Zbigniew Brzezinski, to Pakistan to rally the mujahideen fighters waging jihad against the Russian invaders.
In the footage of that incident, Brzezinski can be seen helicoptering to a spot in the Khyber Pass on the Afghanistan border to address the Islamic fighters taking up arms against the Soviets. Assuring the assembled “freedom fighters” that their struggle will succeed, he raises a finger in the air in the direction of Afghanistan, proclaiming: “That land over there is yours. You’ll go back to it one day because your fight will prevail. And you’ll have your homes and your mosques back again because your cause is right and God is on your side.”
This was, as we now know, pure manipulative hogwash. Uncle Sam couldn’t have cared less about the fate of these fighters. The US government didn’t believe in their God and it didn’t care if they had their homes and their mosques back again. In fact, as Brzezinski himself has since admitted, the Soviet invasion had, in a sense, been a Western operation, the successful culmination of a covert US plan to lure the USSR into Afghanistan and slowly bleed the Red Army in a years-long proxy war.
In the infamous 1998 interview where Brzezinski confirmed this hidden truth, he was asked whether he regretted his role in fostering the rise of the Taliban and Al CIAda.
Regret what? That secret operation was an excellent idea. It had the effect of drawing the Russians into the Afghan trap and you want me to regret it? The day that the Soviets officially crossed the border, I wrote to President Carter, essentially: “We now have the opportunity of giving to the USSR its Vietnam war.” Indeed, for almost 10 years, Moscow had to carry on a war that was unsustainable for the regime, a conflict that bought about the demoralization and finally the breakup of the Soviet empire.
These are not the words of a pious believer in the righteous struggle of Islamic freedom fighters. They are not even the words of an earnest Cold Warrior, blindly supporting anyone who could strike at his Soviet enemy. They are the words of the man who literally wrote the book on The Grand Chessboard—the words of a self-proclaimed geopolitical grandmaster who cooly calculates several moves ahead as he manipulates his pawns on the grand chessboard as part of a grand strategy to checkmate his opponent.
Last week I revealed how the would-be rulers of the world see the grand struggle for geopolitical dominance as a type of chess game and how people around the globe (including the mujahideen in Afghanistan) are treated as mere pawns in that game, to be used, abused and sacrificed in pursuit of the grandmasters’ aims.
This week I will examine the growing political awareness of the pawns in the grand chess game and show what it looks like when they strike back against their masters.
Global Political Awakening
Yes, it is a Coup by Victor Rosenthal
July 23, 2023 – As I write, Israel is undergoing a carefully planned, well-financed, coup d’état.
Its leaders, members of Israel’s elite, including two former prime ministers, military officers, high tech entrepreneurs, media, judges and lawyers, supported by an army of useful idiots, will tell you that it is not a coup. They will say that it’s the government that is trying to effect a revolution, to destroy Israel’s democracy and install a dictatorship or even a theocracy.
They are either fools or lying. To begin with, Israel is not a true liberal democracy today, nor has she ever been one, except perhaps for brief periods. For the first 29 years of her existence, she was ruled by a single party, Mapai, the Labor Party. Her first Prime Minister, David Ben-Gurion, was a virtual dictator. Later prime ministers were chosen from among the Labor apparatchiks, and some of them were incompetent enough to imperil the existence of the state. The opposition, led by Menachem Begin, was entirely shut out.
In 1977, thanks to public disgust over the Labor government’s failure to prepare for the outbreak of the Yom Kippur War, and the demographic changes in Israel resulting from the immigration of almost a million Jews forced to flee Muslim countries, Begin’s Likud party received enough votes in an election to form a government, and make him prime minister.
But control of the Knesset didn’t translate into control of the country. The elites that controlled government-owned enterprises, the army, the media, the legal system, the labor unions, the educational establishment, and everything else, did not let go. The “new Israelis,” mostly Mizrachi Jews, but soon to include immigrants from the Soviet Union, Ethiopia and other places, were kept out. I remember a song popular around 1980 about a singer who wanted to appear on the (state-controlled) radio, but was turned down because of his Mizrachi accent.* It wasn’t a joke, even at that late date.
The elites saw the demographic bus coming, and they knew that they had to somehow control the “barbarians” who would soon begin to take over by sheer force of numbers. So in the early 1990s, led by Supreme Court Justice Aharon Barak, they engineered a real judicial coup. What was called a “constitutional revolution” vastly increased the power and scope of the Supreme Court, gave quasi-constitutional status to vague laws passed by a small minority of Knesset members, and for the first time enabled the court to overthrow laws passed by the Knesset. A system of legal “advisors,” accountable only to the judicial system, was created, whose “advice” to every ministry and government department is binding. Now, although the “new Israelis” often elect a majority of the Knesset, the elected officials can be blocked from doing anything that the old elites don’t like.

The scariest poll you’ll see this summer ALEX BERENSON
And it’s not about Joe Biden
JUL 22, 2023 – A majority of Americans – and an overwhelming number of Democrats – no longer support First Amendment protections for free speech.
The government should restrict “false” information online, even if doing so blocks people from “publishing or accessing information,” 55 percent of Americans said in a large poll released Thursday. Only 42 percent disagreed.
The antipathy to free speech represents a sea change in attitudes in just five years. It is driven by a powerful new hostility to First Amendment rights on the left.
In an identically worded poll five years ago, Democrats and Republicans favored free speech online by roughly 3 to 2 margins. Today, Republicans still favor the First Amendment by about that much. But Democrats have turned against it by even more.
The support for government suppression of “false” speech clearly violates the First Amendment, which does not distinguish between “false” and legal speech, or online or traditional platforms for speech and debate.
The stunning finding comes from a survey released Thursday by the Pew Research Center, a Washington think tank. Pew’s online poll covered over 5,000 adults, and Pew has asked the same question three times in five years; the trend is unmistakable.

Why did Trump finally decide to run for office? You can thank Ben Shapiro, Seth Meyers & Obama. TIERNEY’S REAL NEWS
JUL 22, 2023 – Who is Ben Shapiro of the Daily Wire and can he be trusted? As we get closer and closer to the election, it’s a good idea to review the history of top conservative pundits to find out just who has been consistent & can be trusted.
Ben Shapiro, Seth Meyers, Obama & Trump. Why Trump Finally Ran For Office.
Many Republicans are well-aware that in 2011, at the White House Press Dinner, President Obama and Seth Meyers mercilessly roasted and mocked Donald Trump for considering a GOP Presidential run in 2012. It was humiliating and degrading. The entire room was laughing at him.
They laughingly announced, to the world, THAT DONALD TRUMP WOULD NEVER BE PRESIDENT. Many people believe, including me, that this was the pivotal moment when Donald Trump decided to run for President in 2016 and prove them ALL wrong.
This is also the reason, IMHO, that President Trump did not attend the White House Press Dinner during his administration.
Most people do NOT know, however, that Ben Shapiro, one of the original conservative NeverTrump pundits, along with Glenn Beck, wrote an article two weeks before that dinner calling Donald Trump the most “magical” Presidential candidate the Republicans could ever ask for.
Ben’s glowing critique of Trump literally painted him as the “savior” of the Republican party. After Obama’s and Meyer’s roast of Trump, Shapiro buried his views, put his tail between his legs and, afraid he would lose his place at the cool kid’s media table, turned on Trump. Ben has taken money from the anti-Trump camp for over the past 10 years to bash Trump along with the rest of the mainstream media.
What did Ben Shapiro say in 2011 about Donald Trump? Read on.
The Coup We Never Knew Victor Davis Hanson
January 5, 2023 – Did someone or something seize control of the United States?
What happened to the U.S. border? Where did it go? Who erased it? Why and how did 5 million people enter our country illegally? Did Congress secretly repeal our immigration laws? Did Joe Biden issue an executive order allowing foreign nationals to walk across the border and reside in the United States as they pleased?
Since when did money not have to be paid back? Who insisted that the more dollars the federal government printed, the more prosperity would follow? When did America embrace zero interest? Why do we believe $30 trillion in debt is no big deal?
When did clean-burning, cheap, and abundant natural gas become the equivalent to dirty coal? How did prized natural gas that had granted America’s wishes of energy self-sufficiency, reduced pollution, and inexpensive electricity become almost overnight a pariah fuel whose extraction was a war against nature? Which lawmakers, which laws, which votes of the people declared natural gas development and pipelines near criminal?
Was it not against federal law to swarm the homes of Supreme Court justices, to picket and to intimidate their households in efforts to affect their rulings? How then with impunity did bullies surround the homes of Justices Brett Kavanaugh, Samuel Alito, Amy Coney Barrett, Neil Gorsuch, John Roberts, and Clarence Thomas—furious over a court decision on abortion? How could these mobs so easily throng our justices’ homes, with placards declaring “Off with their d—s”?
Since when did Americans create a government Ministry of Truth? And on whose orders did the FBI contract private news organizations to censor stories it did not like and writers whom it feared?
How did we wake up one morning to new customs of impeaching a president over a phone call? Of the speaker of the House tearing up the State of the Union address on national television? Of barring congressional members from serving on their assigned congressional committees?

An important note from Jonathan Pollard to viewers:
“There was nothing that pained Esther and I more than the fact that we were denied the right to have children. There wasn’t a day we didn’t mourn this loss.”
The late Esther Pollard tied her fate to Jonathan’s, and for three decades fought relentlessly for his release.
Throughout his long years in prison, Jonathan dreamed of the day when he would be able to repay Esther for everything she did for him. Unfortunately, about a year after their arrival in Israel, Esther passed away after a long and courageous battle with cancer.
On the first anniversary of her death, in profound sorrow, and given the fact that he and Esther never had the chance to have children of their own , Jonathan has decided to commemorate Esther’s life and legacy through the establishment of Esther’s Children Center. By strengthening Jewish identity and instilling Jewish values in thousands of children, from toddlers to adolescents, the center will promote Esther’s values on one hand while symbolizing the Pollards’ unfulfilled dream of educating their own children according to these values .
After years in which we felt his pain, prayed for him and fought for his release, this is our opportunity to thank him for all he did.
Together, we will make his dream come true.
Together we will build the Esther Children’s Center

[Ed.: There is a very important clue as to the enigma of who Yehonatan Pollard is, starting at 1:05:40, and why he suffered punishment for so long, why he survived it, and why he is alive in Israel today. This brought tears to my eyes and wet my entire face! Just before that section, Yehonatan described exactly why “IINO”, the term that I coined and use, is a true assessment of today’s plight of the Jewish People. That assessment is what should have brought on the wet face five minutes sooner!]
Gentiles who love Jews and the Jews who hate them by Eliyahu Tulshinski
Leftist front group used secular Jews to infiltrate John Birch Society
July 13, 2023 – In what could be a satirical tribute to the 2002 book co-written by Dr. Susan Forward, Men who hate women and the women who love them, the self-proclaimed guardians of Jewish Americans, the Anti-Defamation League (ADL), infiltrated the John Birch Society in an effort to destroy a pro-Israel group that ran articles like, “A Bad Investment: US Funding, Training PLO Terrorists.”
More pro-Israel than Israel’s Prime Minister
The “Bad Investment” article, which appeared in the John Birch Society’s periodical The New American, exposed details about the funding of Israel’s enemies that Israel’s leaders opt to keep secret even when invited to speak to Congress or to appear on American news channels:
Tuly Wultz and his 16-year-old son Daniel were enjoying a Passover holiday dinner at a Tel Aviv restaurant when the suicide bomber struck. Nine diners were killed in the grisly attack that day in April 2006 and dozens more were wounded, including the Wultzes, Americans from Florida who were visiting Israel on vacation . . .
Few Americans are aware, however, that the deadly attack that took the life of Daniel Wultz was planned and carried out by U.S.-trained terrorists of the PLO’s (Palestine Liberation Organization) notorious al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades. The Brigades, which are formally listed as a terrorist organization by the U.S. State Department, have carried out numerous suicide bombings, car bombings, shootings, and rocket attacks. Nevertheless, they are a major military arm of Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas’ PLO/Fatah organization. As such, they share in the hundreds of millions of U.S. taxpayer dollars that annually are showered on the Abbas-led Palestinian regime.
