Please stand with me now when you can DOUBLE your support! The Atomic Ayatollah If there wasn’t already enough bad news in the headlines, we just got a shocking report from the International Atomic Energy Agency, the U.N.’s nuclear watchdog, that Iran has tripled its production of near weapons-grade uranium. Experts say that it could take Iran as little as two weeks to turn this 60% uranium into full weapons-grade capability. It is believed that Iran now possesses enough uranium to make at least three nuclear bombs. Why is this so disturbing? Iran is the world’s leading state-sponsor of terrorism. Iran is almost entirely responsible for all of the chaos in the Middle East. The fastest way to peace in the Middle East would be for the Iranian people to rise up and overthrow the radical mullahs in Tehran. Iran provides weapons, training and funding to terrorist organizations like Hamas and Hezbollah, and has even cooperated with Al Qaeda. It also has a vast network of operatives around the world, even here in the United States. (Here, here and here.) Iran is also supporting the Houthis in Yemen and various militias in Iraq and Syria, which are launching attacks against Israel and U.S. forces virtually every day. The response from the Biden Administration has been pathetic, which is why the attacks are continuing day after day. It’s not hard to imagine Iran using one of its terrorist proxies to smuggle a nuclear weapon or a dirty bomb into a major American or European city. Even worse, the Iranian regime, led by the Holocaust-denying Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, has repeatedly vowed to wipe Israel off the map. It already has a vast and growing arsenal of sophisticated missiles. Armed with nuclear weapons, there’s no limit to the chaos and devastation Iran could -- and likely would -- unleash on the world. Anti-Israel Idiots The group “Doctors Against Genocide” had planned to hold an anti-Israel demonstration today in Washington, D.C., but it was called off. Why? There are demonstrations in Washington all the time. What changed their minds? Well, someone thought it would be a really good idea to hold a “Stop The Genocide In Gaza” protest at the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum. Fortunately, there was such a tremendous backlash to the disgusting idea that the group canceled the protest. But the whole concept behind “Doctors Against Genocide” is a disgusting lie. These doctors know what genocide is, and they know that genocide is not happening in the war currently raging between Israel and Hamas. The only entities in the Middle East interested in genocide are the Islamic Republic of Iran and its radical Islamist allies, like Hamas. In fact, Iran and Hamas are currently fighting over who deserves the most credit for the October 7th massacre. I have no doubt that some members of “Doctors Against Genocide” would salivate at the prospect of Israel’s destruction and a second Holocaust of Jews. One thing we know for sure is that a group cannot be the target of genocide when its population is growing. From 2005, when Israel withdrew from Gaza, to this year, the population of Gaza has increased by 800,000 people. Well, how is their population growth so robust if there is a genocide taking place? Of course, there is no “genocide.” It’s a total lie. Not only is the Muslim population of Gaza growing, but the Muslim population of Israel is also growing. There’s also an element of “psychological warfare” at work here, with all these anti-Israel activists protesting in their medical coats. Their actions are likely to cause many Jews to be afraid of seeking medical care. Eco Anti-Semitism The Biden Administration recently announced $600 million in grants to organizations dedicated to fighting climate change and global warming. The funding came from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Of course, the money really came from your paycheck! These groups are far-left fringe outfits. Their neo-Marxists and Maoists. One of the organizations that got an EPA grant – $50 million of your tax dollars! – is the Climate Justice Alliance. One of the major goals of this so-called “climate group” is to “end the occupation of Palestine.” So, while the Biden Administration is berating Benjamin Netanyahu and putting all kinds of conditions on Israel’s campaign to crush Hamas, it’s also giving money to a group that essentially embraces Hamas’s call, “From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free.” That a so-called “climate group” is so obsessed with “Palestine” is just more evidence of the rabid anti-Semitism that permeates the progressive movement. Jew-hatred is increasingly one of the main unifying ideologies of today’s modern left, the result of an unholy alliance between radical Islamists and neo-Marxists. (See next item.) The Kids Are NOT Okay We’ve told you about the disturbing trend of American youth on TikTok singing the praises of Osama bin Laden. Well, another alarming survey should be causing parents and taxpayers everywhere to demand major reforms in public education. A British media outlet recently conducted a survey asking Americans how they felt about Osama bin Laden. As you might expect, the vast majority of Americans despise bin Laden. But here’s what the survey found among those 18 to 29 years old: 20% have a “completely positive” or “somewhat positive” of bin Laden. 17% have a “mixed” view of bin Laden. 11% say they don’t know what to think about the Al Qaeda leader. 11% say they have a “somewhat negative” view of bin Laden. Only 41% say their view of bin Laden is “completely negative.” Asked whether bin Laden’s views and actions were a “force for good,” 8% of those 18 to 29 said both his views and actions were good, while 23% said his views were good but his actions were bad. That’s a totally contradictory assessment, given that his insane views led to bad actions! Clearly, these young adults don’t know anything at all about bin Laden’s radical Islamist views. But the fact that a fifth to a third of American youth have any positive views and opinions regarding Osama bin Laden is a clear indication that something is terribly wrong with our educational system. Every elected official who loves this country must make educational reform a top priority! We must end the left-wing indoctrination in our schools and universities.
