By the way, Don. YouTube actually did something worthwhile yesterday (Sunday). It did a WWII menagerie on all the heroes from West Virginia. I didn't think there were that many people FROM West Virginia to fight in WWII, but I was humbled and thought you should know.

I’d go farther back than 0bama. I lay all of this at the feet of Jimmy Carter. Muslims were pretty docile until he sided with the exiled radical ayatollahs against the Shah. Imagine what the world would be like now if he had not done that.

Before you start screaming "Anti-semite" you might want to hear me out. The mid-east has always been a hot spot throughout history. Israel has NEVER made any attempt to be at peace with their neighbors and Jews in the United States constantly support and vote in politicians (Liberals) who support the destruction of Israel. HOW STUPID DO YOU HAVE TO BE......if have you forgotten Hilary Clinton, barry obama, Bill Clinton and the worst president min United States history, Joe Biden. Now you have George Soros sponsored JUST STOP OIL and all the environmental groups trying to bring the world to an end.

Probably around the beginning of next summer, drive around the Jewish parts of town and witness their support for BLM and all the democratic politicians. I dare you to ask any of them to NAME ONE PERSON BESIDES THE BLM GOVERNING BOARD WHO HAS BENEFITTED FROM THE 100 MILLION+ BLM HAS COLLECTED. They can't and neither can YOU.

Every story turns into what the Jews did with you. Yeah, there are Commie Jews and political Jews and Jews who own banks and who have stupid ideas about the world. Just like everybody else. Your comments are incorrect. Israel has tried multiple times to make peace, mostly to their own detriment. It’s not even worth going into how ill informed that statement you made is. But whatever. Nothing new here. The problem isn’t the terrorists, it’s the Jews? Your ideas are no different from Ilhan Omar. You support the kind of carnage that will be coming soon to a neighborhood near you, courtesy of the U.S. Government. The Democrat politicians you mention are all Christians but magically they were ejected by one of the smallest minorities in America. Right. It wasn’t the other tens of millions of Democrats. BLM is a black supremacist lesbian commie land grab ( it turns out), but the Jews did it. Sad.

Interesting comment from yesterday: 'Sonienne

20 hours ago

It has long seemed to me that Democrat leadership always use their black members to say and do the most ludicrous things, because the Chuck Schumers in the party want an issue for the media to chew on. They wouldn't say this sh*t themselves - it's just too stupid - but they know their black members are bullet-proof. It's the reason they dumped HRC for Obama. His race card trumped her first woman.'

Tony, it’s not anti Semitic to point out the obvious. Most Jews tend to come from the highly liberal or socialist end of the spectrum.

OK, then why don't they learn? Remember what the name of today's post--what have we learned from 9/11. If you are Jewish--NOTHING. Jews think they can make a pact with the devil; in this case BLM or perhaps even George Soros. Soros has the blood of at least 11,000 Jews from his days in Hungary and there are many Jews who think Mr. Soros is a good man., NO he isn't. Soros is the epitome of pure evil. Soros may not be the anti-Christ, but he damned sure will support who is.

Actually the tide is turning in that regard. And what does that have to do with Hamas terrorists attacking Israel? White suburban upper middle class Christian raised women are the vanguard of the Democrats. Most don’t go to church and most hate “Christian nationalists”, whatever that is supposed to mean. Most minorities have traditionally voted Democrat. But the fact of the matter is that people like Barack Obama and Biden and anybody outside New York City is not elected by anybody but white Christian Americans. Numbers are real.

“A radical Muslim will chop off your head. A moderate Muslim will hold you down while he does it.”

Bottom line - none of this will end until Islam is eradicated from the entire planet.

respectfully disagree with your conclusion for two primary reasons:

1. the eradication of Islam would give the left the precedent they lust after to eradicate Christianity and Orthodox Judaism;

2. Muslims in various times and places have lived peacefully alongside non-Muslims in a variety of times and places - British-occupied India and Africa are the first that come to mind. Western-educated leftists prominently including Muhammad Jinnah*, Franz Fanon, and Edward Said adapted Marx' theories of class struggle.

It's leftism that must be eradicated.

*Jinnah invented both the concept and the word Pakistan. The word means "pure land" as a wholly Muslim nation carved out of greater India.

Proportional to the population, the brutal attack on Israel is 12 times that of the attack on 9/11.

I agree with Don Surber, this is Biden's $6 billion dollar war. They put the funds in Qatar, which funds all Islamic terrorism of the Middle East.

It is difficult for Americans to wrap their heads around two Presidents (Obama/Biden) who have empowered a country (Iran) that is dedicated to destroying America. It is so perverse the rest of us have a hard time understanding their motives. But clearly we are dealing with a group that wants the US and Israel destroyed, and is willing to use our taxpayer money to fund that destruction.

Obama began all of this War, like he did when he funded the Maidan Coup in 2014, by creating the Iranian nuclear deal from hell. That empowered Iran to get a nuclear weapon.

In addition it is important to note the parallels between the Middle East and America. Obama used social media during the "Arab Spring" as a means of helping organize revolutionary protests throughout the Middle East. Mubarak the moderate was deposed and the Muslim Brotherhood took over. It was a beta test for 2020.

In 2020 Obama/Soros funded Black Lives Matter to foment revolutionary destruction of our cities.

By now, Obama has already put in place in all government agencies people who were either members of the Muslim Brotherhood, radicals from the '60's, Iranian spies in the Biden Administration, and Communists.

So Obama/Biden have empowered Iran to attack Israel and the US from OUTSIDE, and empowered radical Islamists and Communists to attack the US from INSIDE the US government. There they work, targeting law abiding citizens, legal gun owners, patriots, conservatives, and Donald Trump.

The attack on Israel was so clearly UNPROVOKED by Israel, and so clearly an attack on innocent babies, women, children, and the elderly, that the Biden government and the democrats in Congress have a real problem in their support for antisemitism and boycotts of Israel.

Everyone should understand that The Two State Solution was dead in Israel for years, because Israelis knew they did not have peace partners in the West Bank and Gaza.

Everyone should understand that there is not going to be anyway Israelis can live side by side with a group of people committed to genocide.

Anyone, any country, saying Israel should stop now and start discussing peace are ON THE SIDE OF IRAN AND HAMAS.

Anyone, any country, saying The Two State Solution is alive, IS ON THE SIDE OF HAMAS AND IRAN. There is no two state solution consistent with Israeli survival.

Israel was until recently, divided by those who hate Netanyahu and who tried to bring down the government, (and who were funded by the US), is now UNITED. There is no division between political opponents when the country is attacked.

I believe Hamas and Iran thought that Israel was so internally divided they could easily conquer the country. They were/are mistaken.

I believe that the US-led discussions between Saudi Arabia and Israel may also have precipitated this war, because Iran is seeing how the Muslim world is uniting against them. The Sunni states in the Middle East now have more in common with Israel than with Iran, which threatens them all.

In all events, the two traitorous and treasonous Presidents, Obama and Biden started this war. They have a lot of blood on their hands.

There will never be peace with Muslims, just as Satan will never stop trying to become God. The only outcome Muslims will accept is death to all who don't bow to Allah, especially Christians and Jews.

Once again, it is our locally placed terrorists who are destroying America from within, the latest of which is Biden and his open borders. To paraphrase Obama, "There is nothing sweeter than the call to morning prayer". The deep state is cheering them on, especially John Brennan

"Now those armaments could be used to attack Israel."

It's a good bet they WILL be...

"Britain’s home secretary, Suella Braverman, said, 'There must be zero tolerance for antisemitism or glorification of terrorism on the streets of Britain. I expect the police to use the full force of the law against displays of support for Hamas, other proscribed terrorist groups or attempts to intimidate British Jews.'"

Braverman clearly has bigger balls than anyone in the Wilhelm administration. She also has a spine, something no one in the Wilhelm administration has.

She's right, of course, but I suspect that the police in London will demonstrate allegiance to its leftist masters than the second-highest ranking official in its government - nor will there be any consequences for doing so.

"Instead of addressing the root causes of terrorism, let’s just shoot and kill the terrorists and their masters. I believe with every fiber in my bones that we finally will."

Oh, how I wish I could share in your optimism and faith, but I cannot. However, I believe Israel can, and will, and sooner without "support" (read as interference; or as empty symbolic gestures) from the US - after all, with "allies" and/or "friends" like the US under the "leadership" of Wilhelm, and the first sodomite "president" before him, who needs enemies?

I hope that Israel turns all Palestinian-held territory, and all Islamic nations like Omar's home country to glass - forget about salting the earth - scorch it so that the sunlight reflected is visible from beyond the Milky Way.

My gratitude to the cat for today's poll question. Bring back Trump, indeed.

Rush Limbaugh had this to say about constant Jewish State's struggle for survival. One side must win and burn the fields of the loser. This massacre and mass kidnapping and torture constitute Israel's 9/11. Like our 9/11, foreign nationals are included as victims. The world should be and remain outraged but it won't. The entire world knows what fields need to be burned. They are Iran, every terrorist organization it finances and the leadership of the pawns known as Palestinians. now watch for it. Israel has started burning the fields. Soon the media story will become what awful things the Israelis are doing.

How as a people can we be that effing stupid? It's very hard not to be a hater any longer. Nobody remembers history, therefore all we do is repeat it, yet as has been told to me the reason for this is simply because history is not taught here no more. I will never understand how we have either done or let this be done to ourselves. As Bill Maher said"We're not a serious people", that's all I'll agree with him. I just wrote this the other day, after 9/11, while recovery from back surgery, I began my liking of one Mr. Don Imus, as I watched the repeated TV telecasts of the twin towers being leveled and him saying as we ventured into the hinterlands of the religion of peace,"You're gonna have to kill them all" quite prophetic words, perhaps the Israelites will now do it for the world. In my 70 years of shuffling around on this rock, never been very religious, as like many others here usually working more than 8 hours a day, not being very politically cognizant, the sum of me and probably quite a few others, having been a simp bystander In thIs decades long slow death of our country and the "Murican" way of life, the chickens have come home to roost. I'm not sure DJT can reverse this flow of all this worlds ills. We need to take control of our destiny, we need to re aim our arsenal of democracy, from our feet to the real threats that we've allowed to envelope us, a slow deep breath and a smooth squeeze. I have no clue as to how come we think we can give any number of shithole countries gazillion of dollars and still put up with this bull shit, excuse me while my head explodes. I'm tired of either building or rebuilding these shithole countries, let them all rot in the hell they've made.

I relate with much of your comment. I too was not religious as I grew up in a non religious home. Father was an atheist and mother remains an agnostic.

I thank the Lord God Almighty for saving me through the blood of Jesus. The Bible is true. It changed the trajectory of my life.

CS Lewis, a well known Christian apologist, among other talents, was an atheist early in his life. One phrase he wrote in Mere Christianity has stayed with me. Christ is a liar, a lunatic, or whom He said He was.

Encourage you to read the 4 gospels and read Mere Christianity and Lee Strobel’s books: A case for Faith. A case for Christ. A case for Heaven. Like Lewis, Strobel, too, was an atheist.

God bless you friend.

Again, great article giving a clear perspective of reality. As one looks around the world to Western Judeo Christian based nations, the generosity and openness that they've displayed, just like America, have resulted into the unexpected where countries have been turned into something quite different from what they once were. Sweden is a prime example. The migrant's assimilation into their adopted nation's culture and rule of law has not happened. it's only created unimaginable chaos. All at the expense of people welcoming them with open arms. The Islam religion (have hard time calling it a religion) is a cult of domination and conquest. The Judeo-Christian religion on the other hand, is one espousing love and forgiveness. The two are fundamentally at odds with one another and has remained that way since Muslims killed started killing infidels ages ago. As to their supporters and apologists, well, there's a place in hell with those that abuse children and animals but that maybe too good too.

There are many reasons that Jews vote Democrat. I will offer a few. 1 Jews live mostly in large cities in the US and close suburbs. The population in those places vote overwhelmingly Democrat. The Jewish people for the most part are the least religious group in the US. When people leave religion they become “liberal” or leftist. They remember that in the 50’s the anti communist were sometimes also Anti Jewish in the way that Communists blamed Jews for being Capitalist and Capitalist blamed Jews for being Communist. As you move from the bigger cities and towards religion the Jews become more conservative and Republican. I think this attack on Jews in Israel and Jews on College campuses will have an effect on Jews moving them to the right. They are also arming themselves and may have found new personal meaning in the 2nd amendment. On last comment the US military has as members Jews in the same proportion as in the US. I pray that the Jews of America wake up and realize who their friends are and also take seriously self defense.
