What do the stabbings in Israel, the assaults on Hindus in Bangladesh, the Muslim mobs roaming English cities and the massacres of Christians in Nigeria all have in common? The politically correct answer is nothing. And that’s why the politically correct answer condones, justifies or ignores the violence. Islamic attacks on non-Muslim majorities in India, Europe, America or Israel are justified as resistance by the oppressed, but violence by Muslim majorities against non-Muslim minorities in Indonesia, Nigeria and Bangladesh were justified by claims that the Muslim majority was economically disenfranchised. Muslim violence is always excused by false claims of victimhood. Within Islam, Jihads are billed as a campaign to unify the world under the Islamic ‘Ummah’, to impose Sharia law on all mankind, and eventually usher in a global caliphate. Externally however they are tethered to local and political causes of groups that happen to be Muslim. Muslims see them as Islamic wars, non-Muslim...

The Facebook page for Manne Farm features a goat wearing sunglasses. The goat (and possibly the sunglasses) along with the rest of the farm have now been sanctioned. Anyone feeding the goat (or any of the sheep) faces legal and criminal consequences from D.C. The State Department has sanctioned the Israeli farm under the “transnational criminal organizations designation” while describing its activities as the “raising of sheep and goats”. This probably makes Manne Farm the first transnational criminal organization that raises sheep and goats. In addition to raising them (and putting sunglasses on goats), the farm sells big juicy burgers, which look pretty good, and if that wasn’t enough, it also rents out a guesthouse for families looking to spend a weekend at a farm. The farm hosted a prayer event for the high holidays and held craft workshops for kids for Chanukah. Now praying there might be a crime. But while the Biden administration sanctions Jewish shepherds, it offered exemptions...

During the 2020 primaries, Kamala Harris told the Tampa Bay Times that she wanted to end what she called the “failed trade embargo” on Cuba. Few outside the Cuban American community paid attention to her answer and it was assumed that her willingness to prop up the Communist dictatorship was consistent with her general left-wing views on foreign policy. No one in the media was asked whether she had a financial stake in keeping Cuba open. When the Biden campaign released the 2019 tax returns for Kamala and her husband Douglas Emhoff, it was very clear that while Doug might be auditioning to be the ‘Second Gentleman’, the entertainment lawyer was by far the primary breadwinner with $2.7 million from his current law firm DLP Piper and $115,258 from his partnership stake in his old law firm Venable LLP. The 2020 tax returns reflected another $181,627 from Venable. Venable, which bought Emhoff’s old law firm and made him a partner, casts a wide net and boasts that it “helped a client obtain...

With the United States and China engaged in a heated trade war, the US-China Peoples Friendship Association (USCPFA) scheduled its national convention in Minneapolis. Minnesota’s soybean trade made it China’s best leverage against President Trump’s tariffs and the regime was fortunate to have one of its own in the governor’s residency. Gov. Tim Walz was the highest ranking elected official with the broadest ties to China. And so it surprised no one when the US-China Peoples Friendship Association listed him as one of its speakers at the convention alongside notable Communist influence operation figures. Earlier that year, Walz had gone on a foreign trip to Asia along with his Lt. Gov: leaving no one in charge of Minnesota. While the trip was ostensibly undertaken to find alternative trading partners to China, it was actually a propaganda move to stir up opposition to Trump’s trade war. In September 2019, Gov. Walz returned claiming that the state’s farmers ‘remain in desperate need o...

Democrats have tried to reassure Jewish voters that they have nothing to worry about despite Kamala’s harsh criticism of Israel’s war on Hamas. (Pictured: Sharon Brous with Linda Sarsour) To counter those concerns, the Jewish Democratic Council of America, headed by Haile Sofer, Kamala’s old policy adviser, rolled out a ‘Jewish Americans for Kamala Harris’ online rally. But while the Zoom rally flier may feature a photo of Kamala and her husband, Doug Emhoff, awkwardly lighting a menorah, the leading figures in the rally only raise more questions. The two most prominent non-elected officials taking part in the rally are Randi Weingarten, the head of the American Federation of Teachers union, and her girlfriend, Sharon Kleinbaum. While Weingarten is best known for her work in keeping school closed leading to as much as a grade point of loss in education, she is militantly anti-Israel and has used antisemitic rhetoric. In response to a question from the JTA, a liberal Jewish media outlet...

Kamala Harris, the former squeeze of a corrupt elderly mayor and ‘second mother’ to a pro-terrorist model famous for not shaving her armpit hair, is accusing Trump of being “weird”. The Harris presidential campaign, which just came into being last week after she deposed the confused senile candidate who actually won the Democrat primaries, found its own ‘Mean Girls’ version of Trump’s insult strategy by matching its candidate’s snickering third grade tone. The media would like to make Kamala into Obama, but where he had the borrowed cadences of black preachers, she has the cadence of an inexperienced preschool teacher. Kamala uses simple words, then reuses them and enunciates them with painful slowness while keeping the subject matter at the level of a not particularly bright child. No one is sure if it’s because she’s very dumb or because she assumes that everyone she’s talking to is very dumb. Or both. While the style has its disadvantages in international forums, major speeches and ...

Hillary Clinton has tried a lot of things over the years. Becoming president. Trying to join both NASA and the Marines. Landing at an airport while under fire. But mostly lying a lot. And that naturally led her to writing a lot of books. Hillary Clinton is the James Patterson of the political publishing industry. Except unlike Patterson (who did cowrite a thriller with Bill Clinton) no one wants to buy what she’s selling. After losing her final election, Hillary wrote ‘What Happened’, a children’s book ‘It Takes a Village’ and ‘Grandma’s Gardens’ and then ‘State of Terror’ a thriller about the heroics of a fictional Hillary. You can find most of them in a 99 cent store assuming you can even still find a 99 cent store. So Hillary, who never misses a grift, decided to belatedly jump on the podcast bandwagon with “You and Me.” If Harry and Meghan could do it, why not her? But unlike Bill, Hillary had never been able to fake interest in other people. And she’s not interesting except as a...

Editor’s note:   Shillman Journalism Fellow Daniel Greenfield recently spoke to a gathering of David Horowitz Freedom Center members and supporters at the Four Seasons hotel about his new book ‘ Domestic Enemies: The Founding Fathers’ Fight Against The Left ‘. Laying out what he calls the Left’s 200-year war on America, Greenfield described how the Left’s war on America’s constitutional freedoms began at the same time as the Constitution did. “Is America doomed? So many people come up to me and ask, can we get past this?” the Shillman Fellow told audience members. “That is part of the reason why I wrote, ‘Domestic Enemies: The Founding Fathers’ Fight Against The Left’. This is not a historical trivia book, though there is plenty of history to be found there if you’re so inclined, this is a book about how we fought the Left from the very beginning.” Greenfield described his goal of telling the story of the American Left from the very beginning. “Why does the Left want to be invisibl...

After attending the inauguration of Iran’s new president among the festive chants of “Death to America” and “Death to Israel”, Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh found death waiting for him. “We always shout: ‘Death for the sake of Allah is our loftiest aspiration,’” Haniyeh had claimed . The Hamas billionaire who lived in luxury in Qatar hadn’t actually wanted to die, but he should have been careful what he wished for before the missile granted him the death he cheered for. After the Hamas atrocities of Oct 7, Haniyeh had declared that we need the “blood of the women, children, and elderly” to awaken the “revolutionary spirit”. But his his dreams of killing all the Jews and seizing Israel ended when he left the protection of U.S. terrorist “allies” like Qatar and Turkey, and visited Iran. Haniyeh never left Iran. Earlier, Israel had taken out Fuad Shukr, the number two figure in the Hezbollah Islamic terrorist group, still wanted by the United States for his role in the Marine Corps Barr...
