Post-Obamacare briefs

That new civility: “it’s Constitutional. Bitches” is the tweet sent by the executive director of the DNC. Not a staffer. Not a young intern. The man in charge of the Democratic National Committee. To quote Todd Manning from General Hospital: … Continue reading

Iranian anti-Semitism: Still no AP report

Monday Islamist briefs

Egypt, enemy, same difference: An Islamist won the presidency of Egypt. He’s already promising to “review” the Camp David Peace Treaty with Israel and increase ties to Iran. Also, Fatah is nervous as hell and Hamas is ecstatic. Awesome work … Continue reading

WTF is a “gradual” truce? Apparently, Hamas thinks it’s a truce if they shoot fewer rockets at Israel. And yet, Iron Dome intercepted five rockets last night–something it does only when the rockets are going to hit populated areas. So … Continue reading

It’s a rocket-filled truce: The AP whitewashes and slants the story, as Hamas pretends to offer a truce while still firing rockets at Israeli civilians. And this used to be the lead sentence: After a deadly cross-border raid, a new … Continue reading

The real reason for the fence attack: Money. Ron ben-Yishai says Bedouins are ultimately behind the Sinai border attack, because their income from smuggling has dropped sharply as Israel builds the border fence. Gee, the poor things. They can no … Continue reading

Gaza attacks Israel, again

The biased narrative of Israel and the African refugees
