    “Aggressive Anti-Israel Protestors Arrested Outside Chuck Schumer’s Brooklyn Home

    “organized by Jewish Voice for Peace — a self-described anti-Zionist activist group”

    https://legalinsurrection.com/2023/10/aggressive-anti-israel-protestors-arrested-outside-chuck-schumers-brooklyn-home/

    “Hundreds of protesters descended on the Brooklyn home of Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) this weekend, demanding the U.S. end aid to Israel and a ceasefire.

    Dozens of arrests were made, which is ironic if you consider this point from Mollie Hemingway.”

    “From the New York Post:

    Dozens of protesters demanding Israel-Hamas ceasefire arrested outside Schumer’s NYC home

    Local lawmakers were among dozens of demonstrators demanding a ceasefire in the Israel-Hamas war who were arrested outside New York Sen. Chuck Schumer’s Brooklyn home on Friday night, according to police sources.

    Hundreds of people gathered at the Grand Army Plaza for the rally, organized by Jewish Voice for Peace — a self-described anti-Zionist activist group — before marching a few blocks to the senator’s Park Slope residence and blocking the street.

    “New York Jews blocking @SenSchumer’s home demanding a ceasefire NOW,” Jewish Voice for Peace Action wrote on X.

    Protesters held a large banner that read, “Jews say stop genocide against Palestinians” in front of Schumer’s building’s door with several police officers standing nearby.

    Police were seen escorting dozens of handcuffed detainees onto MTA buses and driving away.

    It’s a shame Brett Kavanaugh didn’t get this kind of protection at his house.”

  2. War crimes deserve a harsh response.

    CONTENT WARNING!!!!

    ““Hundreds of dead people in Israel are still unidentifiable because of what Hamas terrorists did to their bodies.”

    Video and images slowly being released by Israel show torture and abuse of Israeli living and dead during the initial Hamas attack, including a deceased victim having poles shoved deep into his eye sockets.”

    https://legalinsurrection.com/2023/10/hundreds-of-dead-people-in-israel-are-still-unidentifiable-because-of-what-hamas-terrorists-did-to-their-bodies/

    “Israeli is historically bad at public relations. It doesn’t parade the bodies of its dead and wounded in front of the cameras to show the depravity of its enemies.

    Israel also has almost the entire international media against it, as well as Islamists around the world and western leftists, all of whom pump out propaganda to delegitimize Israel’s self-defense.

    During this current Hamas attack, there are widespread claims denying that Hamas committed the brutality to which there have been numerous testimonies not only by Israelis, but also foreign journalists, diplomats, and U.S. military, who have seen the scenes firsthand or in images/video. US Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin said that from what he’s seen, it’s worse than ISIS.”

    Testimonies by Israeli first responders are horrific.”

    “Israel very slowly, too slowly IMO, has started to release images and video. Even those images spawned an new industry of denial. An image of a dead and charred Israeli baby was subjected to unreliable and manipulated “AI” detectors by these ghouls, with the false result then used to deny Hamas’ crimes.”

    “Israel is struggling to identify its dead because of the abuse of the corpses by Hamas. The creator and producer of the hit show FAUDA writes:

    “Hundreds of dead people in Israel are still unidentifiable because of what Hamas terrorists did to their bodies. Think about that next time you refuse to call them ISIS.””

    “Israel has released more information, as published in this Jerusalem Post article, Israeli forensic teams describe signs of torture, abuse:

    Military forensic teams in Israel have examined bodies of victims of last week’s Hamas attack on communities around the Gaza Strip and found multiple signs of torture, rape, and other atrocities, officers said on Saturday.

    Around 1,300 bodies have been brought to an army base in Ramla in central Israel where forensic checks to determine the identity of the dead and the circumstances of their death are carried out by specialist teams.

    Around 90% of the military dead have been identified and teams are halfway through identifying civilians, said Rabbi Israel Weiss, former army chief rabbi, one of the officials overseeing the identification of the dead. He said many bodies showed signs of torture as well as rape.

    “We’ve seen dismembered bodies with their arms and feet chopped off, people that were beheaded, a child that was beheaded,” a reserve warrant officer identified only by her first name of Avigayil told reporters.

    She said multiple cases of rape were found by forensic examination of the bodies, which have been stored in refrigerated containers.

    “We do the identification with all the means that we have,” said a military dentist, identified as Captain Maayan. “We see them in severe stages of abuse. We see gunshots and we see signs that are purely torture.”

  3. I can’t decide what’s more pathetic…..

    Is it Biden’s clearly unfit for the job mental capacity, or Pelley’s pathetic attempt to gloss over it?

    https://redstate.com/nick-arama/2023/10/15/more-on-disastrous-biden-interview-throws-israel-under-the-bus-and-shows-he-has-no-idea-whats-going-on-n2165104

    “I wrote earlier about a couple of the teaser clips from the “60 Minutes” interview with Joe Biden.

    Those were bad, but the complete interview was even worse.

    First, we should note that there was a little bit of water-carrying for Joe Biden with host Scott Pelley saying that the president was fitting them into his busy schedule on Thursday. ”

    “Biden had his 10 a.m. daily briefing and a 4:30 meeting where he just had to sit and listen to CEOs, how is that busy? Maybe it’s “busy” for an 80-year-old who has so many issues. But that’s why he shouldn’t even be there.

    Biden seemed completely at sea throughout the interview, and so old.

    Pelley asked if he could foresee U.S. troops involved in the Israeli war. Notice his answer: it wasn’t “no.””

    “It was “I don’t think it’s necessary” because “Israel has one of the finest fighting forces in the country.” Um, Joe? Israel is its own country, it’s not part of the U.S., what are you even saying here? In what country?

    Then he threw Israel under the bus with this confusing remark, saying they should not reoccupy Gaza, that he thought that would be a “big mistake.” Funny, that’s just what Iran was hoping Joe would say, and there he is right on cue. You can see him struggling to answer this question.”

    “Pelley asks what was his message to “Hezbollah and its backer Iran.” Biden’s response wouldn’t exactly send fear down any bad actor’s back, and Pelley even had to finish his thought for him. ”

    “I’m sure Iran is quaking in their boots right now.

    But heck, Biden — even now — is still giving them a pass. Listen to this ridiculous response from Biden which echoes what Secretary of State Antony Blinken has said. ”

    It gets even more pathetic after that.

    https://hotair.com/jazz-shaw/2023/10/14/very-very-few-takers-for-that-new-covid-booster-n584774

    “In some non-Hamas news, there are still things happening on the domestic front in the United States (believe it or not). One recent development amazingly still involves COVID and the debate over vaccines, specifically the new round of boosters that are currently being rolled out with the very hasty approval of the CDC. Outkick took a deep dive into the situation yesterday and produced a lengthy report. The number of issues they discovered that should give people pause is significant, but perhaps even more remarkable is the fact that the vast majority of Americans apparently no longer require as much of a warning as they should have received back in 2020 and 2021. Justifiable suspicions are running rampant and the number of people who have signed up for a booster shot is quite low. And we’re talking about a very small number here.

    As if we needed more proof that COVID destroyed the public health profession, the public response to this year’s booster doses is as good as you’re going to get.

    Last year, the CDC, FDA, Dr. Fauci and other health “experts” spent months excoriating the public to get an updated, bivalent booster. They were adamant that those boosters, despite little testing and overhyped results, were necessary to prevent a significant winter surge and increased transmission. Talk about an illusion of control…

    Now, more than a month after they were authorized based on testing on eight mice, we have an update on what percentage have gotten the new doses, after relentless excoriation from the CDC. And it’s low. Really low.

    The previous shot that the CDC authorized last year was only taken by 17% of the population, predominantly among the elderly. But the new booster is performing even worse. Thus far, according to DHS, roughly 7 million Americans have received the latest COVID booster. That works out to approximately two percent of the population. People aren’t buying what the government is peddling and, as Outkick points out, it’s not because the public has lost faith in the general concept of traditional vaccines. They’ve lost faith in the government and what they call The Vaccine Industrial Complex. And this government brought this upon itself by getting so many things spectacularly wrong (masks, social distancing, closing schools) while suppressing dissenting voices from the medical community who wound up being proven correct.”

    “MAHER: “I just want to finish with the values first, because it just amazing to me that the American left, so much of it, throws their lot in with people whose values I hope they don’t share, but let’s go through them.”

    “Because values and customs make a difference, okay, and the people of Gaza — by the way, if the Israelis did get rid of Hamas, they’d be doing a giant favor to the people of Gaza who hate Hamas.”

    “But let’s just go through the list, because Israelis look like us in most ways values-wise. Maybe we’re not doing it the right way, I don’t know.”

    “Religious tolerance, that doesn’t exist in Gaza. You’re either a Muslim or an infidel, and you better be a Muslim. Female freedom. Free and fair elections. Free speech. Gay rights…” […]

    [JAMES] KIRCHICK: “I think that this past week has been a real important moment for a moral reckoning on the American left, because there’s a small — and I will emphasize that, a very small but growing and extremely loud faction on the American left that has revealed itself — ”

    MAHER: “I don’t know how small anymore.”

    Good for Bill Maher for calling this out.”

  15. 🗞💬 WORLD NEWS AND COMMENTARY 💬🗞

    🔥 CBS ran a terrific story yesterday headlined, “DeSantis greets nearly 300 Americans evacuated from Israel at Tampa airport.” Florida’s first delivery of rescued stranded Americans — who got a much bigger Israel adventure than they paid for — landed safely in Tampa yesterday. Grateful tourists were surprised by an in-person welcome by the Governor of Florida himself. In the flesh. Not a picture.

    Florida did not charge Americans for the rescue flight home.

    Meanwhile, the Biden Administration, completely unable to scare up any military or government planes, chartered a single ship today to float American nationals from Haifa, Israel to Cyprus, Greece — about 184 miles — where they will be on their own getting home. It’s literally the least that the federal government could do:

    Here’s how Haaretz described the deal: “Monday’s boat trip from Haifa is not free: Those who board the ship will be required to sign an agreement to repay the U.S. government for the cost of the trip.”

    You’d better read the small print on that agreement.

    While air charters were promised, the feds have not yet published any schedule of chartered flights. But the federal government has promised that nobody rides for free. Oh! And the flights’ final destination will be Pyongyang.
