“‘We’ll help anyone who we can help to get to the border,’ Israeli Foreign Ministry spokesman says
Israel’s Foreign Ministry confirmed on Sunday that diplomats assisted Lebanese, Syrian and Egyptian nationals in evacuating from war-torn Ukraine, Haaretz reported.
A ministry spokesperson said that citizens of several countries in the region, including those officially in a state of war with the Jewish state, boarded a bus on the Polish side of the border organized by Israeli diplomats.”
They joined Israeli citizens fleeing the country that was invaded by Russian forces on Thursday morning.
The Foreign Ministry also said that the Israeli Embassy in Ukraine is ready to “help Israeli residents from East Jerusalem.”
Haaretz journalist Fadi Amun posted to Twitter that a Lebanese citizen with a group of Arab Israelis told him that he had no way to get out of Ukraine, so an Israeli official responded that “we have no problem helping Lebanese or any other Arab citizens as well. He can join the Israeli bus.””
“Senate Democrats’ decision to advance the deceptively titled “Women’s Health Protection Act” may play well with the abortion lobby. But for the rest of America – and especially Catholics – the move reveals Democrats’ ultimate endgame – an extreme abortion regime, stripped of all moderation and restraint, beyond what any country has previously decreed.
Backed by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and endorsed by President Joe Biden, both of whom are practicing Catholics, the bill has been called by the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops “the most radical abortion bill of all time.”
“Better named “The Abortion On Demand Until Birth Act,” it goes far beyond codifying Roe v. Wade into federal law. This legislation would nullify all state laws restricting abortion, require healthcare workers to perform abortions, and provide direct federal taxpayer funding for all abortions, for any reason. Additionally, it would preemptively invalidate all future state-level legislation protecting the unborn.
Laws that the Supreme Court has previously upheld would be thrown out if this bill becomes the law of the land. States could no longer require abortionists to provide women science-backed information about their unborn child, or any alternatives to abortion, observe waiting periods, limit the performance of abortions to licensed physicians, prevent elective abortions after 20 weeks or even after viability. Many of these limits are widely popular, uncontroversial, and are woven into the abortion laws in nearly every country in the industrial world. If Democrats get their way, they would be wiped out entirely.
Pro-life doctors and nurses would see their ability to opt out of abortion procedures eliminated. Healthcare professionals would be strong-armed into performing and participating in abortions — regardless of whether they have moral objections. The text of the bill says that refusing to participate could result in heavy court damages and fees. Administrators at many hospitals would face internal and external pressure to fire non-compliant pro-life staff members to avoid fines. Catholic hospitals, which in some states make up nearly 40 percent of all hospital beds, would be forced to sell or close.
The bill would also eliminate state protections for children from abortion based on their sex, race, or diagnosis of a genetic abnormality such as Down syndrome. Justice Clarence Thomas elegantly defended laws preventing these barbaric practices writing, “Put differently, this law and other laws like it promote a State’s compelling interest in preventing abortion from becoming a tool of modern-day eugenics.” The Abortion On Demand Act would permit these reprehensible practices which are akin to policies common in North Korea or Communist China, not western democracies. They have no place in 21st century America.
Catholics in particular, but Americans in general, overwhelmingly oppose these extreme policies. Marist’s 2022 poll on Americans’ opinions about abortion found 71%, including nearly half of Democrats, would limit abortion to – at most – the first three months of pregnancy. And 54% opposed using taxpayer money to fund domestic abortions. Fully three-fourths of Americans believe that doctors, nurses, and other medical professionals should not be legally required to perform abortions.”
That’s how many Democrats in all of Congress voted against this monstrosity.

Sen. Manchin still opposed to moving forward and Dems’ abortion rights bill tonight, per side. And GOP Sens. Collins and Murkowski just introduced bill to codify Roe V. Wade; Murkowski says Dems’ bill “goes too far.” Looking like 49-51 with full attendance, which this won’t have
(2) This bill expands current federal “hate crime” laws. A crime is a crime, and all victims deserve equal justice. Adding enhanced penalties for “hate” tends to endanger other liberties such as freedom of speech.
(4) The bill creates another federal crime of “conspiracy,” which I’m concerned could be enforced overbroadly on people who are not perpetrators of a crime.

UPDATE — Polish President Duda just said: "We are not going to send any [fighter] jets to the Ukrainian airspace" because "that would suggest an open military interference in the Ukrainian conflict." NATO is not a party to this conflict, Duda said.

EU promise on fighter jets seems to be collapsing. @SlovakiaMFA told me they would not be sending any jets at all. @PolandMFA and @Poland_MOD have refused to confirm, and Bulgaria has now publicly said it also won't. https://t.co/qY5ljFVisU
Jaw-dropping. Borrell says EU military package may include "supplying fighter jets" for Ukraine's air force, EU has spoken w/ Ukrainian foreign minister "about the type of jets the Ukrainian military needs" & there are "member states…able to supply them" https://t.co/hSTlGIrIdopic.twitter.com/6RdT5rJKiT
My two senators voted for that abortion bill. One responded to my letter asking her not to do so, by saying she would. The other sent an email bragging she supported it. Neither response surprised me.
The only Democrat with a clue, on abortion, and Ukraine.
Manchin told me he’s told the administration he wants Biden to reverse oil and gas restrictions after Ukraine invasion to end imports of Russian oil & export to NATO:
“We’re buying 650,000 barrels a day from Russia. It’s ridiculous. Totally ridiculous.”https://t.co/Crc0OcdJyK
C) Manchin: If there was ever a time to be energy independent, it is now. I am calling on the Administration and industry partners to take action immediately, up to and including banning crude oil imports from Russia.
The United States together with our EU allies must start immediate air drops of synthetic hormones, dilators, lube, eyeshadow, chest wax, and push up bras (size 46A) https://t.co/reR5b0BC6Y
This is not a “war within a war.” That phrasing minimizes the literal warfare, refugee migration & casualties happening right now.

That’s what everyone should be thankful for. And just look at the incomplete list above, that’s all it cost America for no mean tweets. So worth it, huh?
So did “she” declare she was a “he” and now cannot leave the country due to “her” being documented as a “he”? Or did “he” declare he was a “she” and now cannot leave the country due to “he” is documented as a “he”? And further more “WHO’s on first”?!!! 😳 Such a stupid diversion from what is going on in the Ukraine but not surprising from CBS or any other mainstream “news” outlet in the USA…..
So he’ll stand there tonight and lie, saying due to his policies, we beat Covid.
But the deaths under him versus Trump’s time tell a far different story.
