Australian Anti-Israel Politician Gets Bit By The Crocodile

You feed the crocodile in the hope that it will eat you last. But sometimes hope fails and it doesn't wait 'til the end to snap at you - especially in the case of Progressive Green Crocodiles.

Tablet: Oct. 20: Aussie Anti-Israel Extremist Runs Over Local MP

On Monday, Australian independent MP Helen Haines was deliberately struck twice by a vehicle outside her office in Wangaratta, Victoria, and she lost a leg in the attack, according to Reuters. Haines, a former nurse and midwife, mother of three, and anti-corruption advocate, was allegedly attacked by Brendan Nugent, driving a Toyota Land Cruiser.

jns.org: Australian politician loses both legs after car-ramming attack

An account linked to Nugent contained posts on domestic and foreign policy issues, including Israel and Gaza. He reportedly accused Israel of genocide, described his position as “anti-Zionist” rather than antisemitic and criticized Australian and U.S. officials over their support for Israel.

 Nugent, being a typical violent progressive leftist was apparently also big on being an enviro-greenie, and had posted he agreed with Haines on that point.

Nugent, according to ABC News, is a longtime campaigner for environmental causes who has also posted extensively about politics, particularly with regard to Australian policy on Israel, on social media. He and Haines follow each other on X, and in 2019, he replied to a post she published by describing her as a “politician who takes climate change seriously.”

The Times of Israel: Man who allegedly drove into Australian lawmaker said to post online about Gaza

In May 2024, the account responded to Australian Foreign Minister Penny Wong writing: “You have not been clear on anything other than giving israel impunity to kill thousands of children.”

. . .

In an undated statement on Haines’s website, she said she is “appalled by the ongoing loss of life in Gaza” and called for an immediate ceasefire and increased international pressure on Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu while also condemning Hamas.

She ended up losing both legs in the deliberate vehicle attack, likely for being insufficiently progressive enough for the attacker's taste in regards to Hamsa.

Such Greenie-on-Greenie violence is certainly reprehensible, but a not atypical nor unexpected end of a progressive purity spiral.

The whole situation has resulted in an anti-Israel progressive politician no longer having a leg to stand on. 

So Macklemore

In a feat of both self-promotion and historical amnesia, has announced he's going to hold a series of "Free Palestine" Concerts.

An interesting choice.

Particularly so for he is promoting the cause of those whose relationship with music festivals and concerts has been, shall we say, somewhat less than harmonious:

Apparently, irony is also a feature of his tour.

Because The New York Times Won't Cover It

The link to the Silenced No More report documenting the sexual assault crimes of Hamas and participating Gaza civilians in the October 7 attack on Israel and in its aftermath can be retrieved and read here.

I'd strongly suggest not eating or drinking anything before reading it. 

Know that the sexual attacks were systemic, planned and organized by Hamas beforehand and part of a deliberate strategy of atrocities, and these deliberate acts were, by any definition, atrocities.

If you can't make it through the report, and you very well might not, a decent summary can be found at The Medialine: How the ‘Silenced No More’ Report Documents Sexual Violence on October 7 and Israeli Civil Commission Report Says Hamas-Led October 7 Attack Included Organized Sexual Violence.

Well, Waddiya Know?

Yet again, The "International Community" and the Gazans have been caught lying.

A fellow named Fadi Al-Waddiya was killed in an Israeli strike.

Israel noted he was a enemy combatant at the time. 

Doctors Without Borders immediately decried the strike, claiming Waddiya was just one of their medics and a family man.

Well, waddiya know, it turns out that Palestinian Islamic Jihad has now confirmed that Fadi Al-Waddiya was indeed the deputy commander of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad’s manufacturing unit when he wasn't moonlighting for Doctors Without Borders.

Doctors Without Borders was shocked, simply shocked, on hearing the news - and refuses to allow a vetting of their local staff for terrorist ties.

Commentary:  Get Used to Saying It: ‘Israel Was Right Again’.

No Surprise There

The Telegraph: Hamas is killing Palestinians. Unsurprisingly, the Left don’t seem to care

The Left celebrated when Hamas killed and kidnapped Jews, protested vociferously and created the false "genocide" canard when Israel fought back

 Now, the Left is totally silent now that Hamas is busy killing Arab civilians. Not even a whisper of condemnation.

No Jews (involved) so No News, of course. 

Israeli Hostages Released

The last 20 living Israeli hostages have finally been returned. The bodies of the dead have yet to be exchanged.

The Detroit News: Living Israeli hostages and Palestinian prisoners are freed as part of Gaza ceasefire

Unfortunately the release of the hostages meant releasing 1,900 Arabs many of whom were in prison for mass murder and other acts of terrorism.

The exchange rate as demanded by Hamas was practically 100 Arab prisoners for each living Israeli.

This may signal the start of a ceasefire that may hold for awhile.

Well, it will likely hold until Hamas or the PA feel frisky enough to break it again, just as Hamas broke the last ceasefire that was in place on October 7 2023. 

Hamas And Holy Days

While the UN passed a resolution demanding a ceasefire in Gaza for Ramadan, they made no effort to have one imposed for Yom Kippur.

Not that Hamas would have honored it in any case, as they certainly have a lack of respect for anyone else holy days, much less their own. The latest conflict, as you may remember, kicked off on October 7 with Hamas committing a massacre and kidnapping during a Jewish Holiday of Simchat Torah.

Sure enough, Hamas just did rocket attack during Yom Kippur  today.

Arutz Sheva: Rocket fire disrupts Yom Kippur silence in Ashdod

Sirens were sounded in the city of Ashdod and the surrounding area on Wednesday evening, at around 8:50 p.m., as Israelis observed Yom Kippur - the holiest day on the Jewish calendar.

Residents of the area reported hearing explosions.

The IDF Spokesperson’s Unit stated that five projectiles were fired by Hamas terrorists from the northern Gaza Strip into Israeli territory.

No urgent resolution nor condemnation from the UN for this latest attack during the holiest day for Jews. 

Funny, that.

You Can Hope In One Hand . . .

The Detroit News: Macron hopes his recognition of a Palestinian state will be a landmark contribution to Mideast peace

Desperate to distract attention from his failures domestically in La Belle France, Macron decided to dip into the Middle East.

How'd his recognition announcement work out?  Well, not so good, at least not for anyone but Hamas and Macron's ego:

Politico: France’s recognition of Palestinian state scuttled Gaza truce talks, Rubio says

You mean rewarding a terrorist group after they committed terrorism and then throwing them a lifeline when they were on the ropes doesn't bring them to the bargaining table and lead to a cease fire and end to the fighting?

Sacré bleu! Who could have seen that coming?  Aside from, you know, everybody. 

Well, At Least They're Only Commiting Vandalism So Far Around Here.

The Red-Green Axis are essentially vandals and indeed can be rightly called terrorists.

The Detroit Free Press: Hundreds of peonies cut, pro-Palestinian signs left at popular Ann Arbor garden

The Detorit News: Pro-Palestinian messages left at scene of flower vandalization, UM police say

Apparently it was  not hundreds - but thousands vandalized. 

Yes, some leftist progressive idiot destroyed hundreds of flowers in an arboretum at the University of Michigan.  

For Hamas, of course. 

Because nothing says you support Hamas terrorism like destroying property. 

This follows quite a string of acts of vandalism by Pro-Hamas scum around the University and at private residences to boot. 

It could be worse, the Red-Green axis has set fire to the Pennsylvania Governor's mansion,  Killed two Jews in DC, and most recently an illegal alien Egyptian pro-Hamasnik attacked Jews with a flamethrower in Colorado.

Getting rather sporty out there with Leftist violence on quite the uptick.

Hamas Rejects Ceasefire Proposal

Hamas' refusal to accept the United State's ceasefire proposal is not unexpected, after all they expect to get bailed out and are taking the statements by Britain, France, Canada, and Germany warning Israel not to win as proof that they will get bailed out and stopped form losing the war they started. 

Yahoo News:  Hamas to reject US Gaza ceasefire plan

BBC: Hamas official says it will reject new US Gaza ceasefire plan backed by Israel

On the upside, Hamas' rejection of the deal, which was quote favorable to it leaves the door open for continued Israeli pressure to get them to come back tto the table. The US-made deal featured yet another lopsided exchange of 10 live and 18 dead Israeli hostages held by Hamas for 1,200 Hamasniks.  This was not a good deal for Israel by any stretch of the imagination.  The deal still left approximately (as we don;t really know if they are alive or not) 10 live Israeli hostages in the hands of Hamas for another 60 days.

Hamas figures it can wait for external pressure on Israel to stop Israel from decisively defeating Hamas, and let Hamas remain to commit more terror attacks in the future.  

Unfortunately, they may just be right.

Worst Genocide Ever - Hamas Actual Casualty Figures Get Reduced Yet Again

Hamas' Health Ministry just revised its casualty figures yet again.

Israel Hayom: Study exposes: Hamas 'quietly' erases thousands of deaths from Gaza death toll

Yahoo News/The Telegraph: Hamas ‘quietly drops’ thousands of deaths from casualty figures

The result is rather interesting.  In short Hamas has been lying yet again about casualty rates and even more importantly who the casualties are in Gaza.

With this revision, instead of the casualties being 70% women and children as falsely claimed by Hamas' Health Ministry, and believed by the gullible around the world, the new percentage when looking at the revised Hamas' Health Ministry stats is that 72% of casualties are males of Hamas combatant age. 

Funny, that.

In short, even Hamas' own stats are showing that Israel is not only not committing a "genocide"  but also that the civilian casualty rate is again lower than claimed by Hamas and they're caught lying- yet again.

Don't expect the media and those who have been reporting and believing Hamas' lies to apologize for such anytime soon, nor to be at least a tad bit skeptical before reporting claims from Hamas as credible.  It's clearly too much to as news agencies to state when they republish Hamas' casualty claims that Hamas has been caught making these casualty figures up multiple times now.

Hamas Perfidy And A Michigan Connection

So Hamas murdered Ariel (age 10) and Kfir Bibas  (age 4 months) by strangling them to death and then disfigured their bodies, and then to add insult to injury handed over coffins that were locked, stuffed with Hamas propaganda along with the bodies, and did not actually return Shiri Bibas' body, instead putting an unknown woman's body int the coffin (The body of was later handed over Friday night).

Hamas, with Iranian backing, also attempted to carry out a massive series of bombings in Israel, only failing due to setting the timers to 9pm rather than 9 am.

Hamas is yet again violating the ceasefire with these acts and expecting to get away with it, as more and more Hamas terrorists are released to kill again in return for live and dead hostages.

Meanwhile, our own Governor Whitmer of Michigan is busy gallivanting around Bahrain and the United Arab Emirates  on a junket with a Hamas apologist and Hezbollah supporter, Osama Siblani, that she brought along for the visit: 

Washington Free Beacon: He Said He'd Take Jews 'Back to Poland.' Gretchen Whitmer Took Him on an Official State Trip to the Middle East. Details of the trip and who she is meeting on it while hanging out with Siblani makes it even worse.

Words would fail to express the disgust that I have right now for our dear  governor half-whit. 

To be jaunting around with a Hamas apologist as Hamas commits terrorist attacks and continues to hold people hostage is beyond the pale. 

So Hamas Violated The Ceasefire Agreement

And of course, they lied and claimed Israel had violated it. Hamas is now saying they will not release hostages until Israel makes new concessions.

This tends to be Hamas' modus operandi - agree to an agreement, violate the agreement while claiming Israel violated it, then make further demands beyond what were in the original agreement while only offering to do what they had already agreed to do under the agreement.

Unfortunately for Hamas, they don't have Biden in office anymore, and President Trump has agreed with Israel's demand that since Hamas has now violated the agreement, they must release all the hostages this week.

Given the condition the most recent batch of hostages were in when released, it may be that Hamas wants to delay to try and improve the health and enhance the appearance of the next set of hostages to be released - or there may not be any live hostages left to release.

 Oh, and USAID gave $3 million to a Hamas-affiliated rapper in Gaza (Which means $3 million was funneled to Hamas) to ostensibly create anti-Israel and anti-Semitic songs.

Because, of course they did.

No, We Can't Trust Kamala

Got a mailer from Kamala t'other day.

Except no, you can't trust her.  

Because at the same time she's sending this out, as well as some TV ads in this area claiming she is pro-Israel, she's saying something else to pro-Hamas types and to the population in Dearbornistan: 

NBC News: Harris targets digital ads spotlighting her words about 'human suffering in Gaza'

We will also note that Harris said the following publicly when interrupted by a pro-Hamasnik claiming what is happening in Gaza is a "genocide".  She declared that what the protestor was saying was :"real":

New York Post:  Kamala Harris publicly agrees with protestor accusing Israel of genocide: ‘What he’s talking about, it’s real’

For the last time, and for the simpletons who swallow Hamas propaganda wholesale in between licking the windows on the short bus, what is happening in Gaza is not a genocide.

Let's use a picture to help get this across:

It is not a genocide when you attack your neighbor, massacre civilians, kidnap others, and then you start losing the war you started as you choose to fight in urban areas while hiding behind civilians in those area and those civillians get killed along with your combatants.

That Kamala would even say "it's real" shows she either is dumb enough to believe there is a genocide going on - contrary to reality- or she's willing to pander to idiots in order to get the Muslim vote to help her win Michigan and some other battleground states. 

Given the demonstrated pro-Iranian and pro-Hamas bent of the Biden-Harris administration, and Kamala choosing to surround herself in office with pro-Hamas types,you absolutely cannot trust her when it comes to Israel, or much else for that matte.

From Sinwar To Sinwas

The top commander in Gaza of Hamas, and the planner and implementer of the October 7 massacre and kidnapping has been killed by the Israel Defense Forces.

The Times of Israel:  New details emerge of Sinwar’s final moments

Good riddance to bad rubbish.

Maybe Hamas will learn from this that it is time to release the hostages and end the conflict they started, but I doubt that.

More Democrat Political Violence - Pro-Hamas Protesters Eat Their Own

So the Pro-Hamas, Pro-terrorist leftists decided to storm the capitol today to protest Netanyahu visiting.

 

Note: if you're burning the American Flag, you're one of the bad guys.

None dare call it an insurrection mind you.

 The Detroit Free Press: Pro-Palestinian protestors try to force way into Rep. Dan Kildee's office

The Detroit News: Thousands descend on Washington to protest Israel ahead of Netanyahu's speech to Congress

We will note Kildee has been supportive of Hamas, being against sending Israel weapons to defend itself. So the protesters were going for an own-goal.

It is unlikely that Rep Kildee learned much from the experience. 

Then again, neither have the terrorist-supporting protestors learned anything in all this time, still backing terrorists and still falsely claiming there is a genocide that is provably not occurring.

Pro-Hamas Students Disrupt MSU Trustee Meeitng

So the pro-Hamas types decided to disrupt a Michigan State University Board Meeting:

The Detroit News:  Pro-Palestinian students disrupt MSU board meeting, causing most trustees to exit

Yep their chant is very coherent and oh, so inspiring:

"One, we are the people. Two, we won't stop fighting. Three, end the fighting now, now, now, now," the protesters chanted, led by MSU student activist and organizer Jesse Estrada White. 

They're certainly not "the people and they clearly don't get the inherent irony and contradiction of their "Two" followed by "Three".  

I do have to worry about the quality of MSU's education these days with this low-quality level of chanting. It's barely a step above "Neener, Neener".

Instead of walking out like weaklings, the MSU Trustees should have stood their ground and handed the disruptive idiots some green and white binkies, and told them to shut up as adults were talking.

Who Ya Gonna Believe?

Al Jazeera, the Qatari-based terrorist supporting "news" organization, in response to the claim that one of the kidnappers and holders of the Isralei hostages that were rescued, "journalist" Abdallah Aljamal, had any connection to him:

Yahoo: Al-Jazeera Denies Connection With Journalist Who Israel Says Held Hostages in His Home

Also Al Jazeera:

 So who ya gonna believe, Al Jazeera, or your lyin' eyes?

Meanwhile, In The USA

 We have pro-Hamas protesters defacing our national monuments:

And not being arrested for it.

Blaze Media:  Huge pro-Palestine protest surrounds White House, smoke bombs set off, progressives demand 'butcher' Biden be arrested for war crimes

PM: BREAKING: Pro-Palestinian protesters surround White House, clash with police

Interesting how it is not getting any play in my local papers today, at all. If you rely on either the Detroit News or the Detroit Free Press for your news, you would have no clue this demonstration and defacement occurred - at all.

In Michigan, meanwhile, The Goodman Acker law firm was vandalized by Pro-Hamas scum because Acker is both Jewish and on the University of Michigan Board. Non-Jewish board members did not have their workplaces vandalized - funny, that.

The College Fix: ‘Antisemitism’: U. Michigan regent’s office vandalized with pro-Palestinian graffiti 

Note the red hand symbols as part of the vandalism.

The red hands symbol is used by the pro-Hamas types use. It  commemorates the Ramallah Lynching that took place in 200 where two Israelis were murdered in a Palestinian Authority Police Station and the murdered held his bloody hands up to the window.   And of course the empty-headed Hollywood types wore it as a symbol for a ceasefire.

Yep, these are the progressive and pro-Hamas scum that the Biden Administration wants to cozy up to for votes.

Israelis Rescue 4 Hostages - Kamala Commiserates With Hamas

Israel's National Police Hostage Rescue Unit,YAMAM, along with supporting forces, just pulled off a stunning coordinated rescue of 4 hostages in two separate locations within the Gaza Strip.

The Jerusalem Post: IDF rescues four hostages from Hamas captivity in daring Gaza operation

Now named Operation Arnon, after the 34-year old Yamam Commander Arnon Zamora killed during the rescue operation, the rescue mission successfully retrieved 4 hostages held by Hamas since October 7.  Hamas in this case includes a Hamas journalist that works for Al Jazeera and the Palestine Chronicle (a media organization with ties to the USA) who held the hostages in his house. he won;t be holding anyone hostage ever again, nor spouting propaganda anymore either.

So, of course, the Biden Administration sends Kamala out to kiss up to the pro-Hamas Islamists that they are counting on for support in November in Michigan, Minnesota and elsewhere:

Fox News: Kamala Harris mourns death of Palestinians in raid that rescued 4 Israeli hostages

Disgusting, that. 

The BBC tried to top that stupidity by asking the IDF spokesman why the IDF didn't warn the Gazans ahead of time about the raid.  Yes, the bint really seriously asked that.

Be sure to take the Hamas-run Health Ministry claims of casualties with a ton of salt. We know they lie, they know they lie, the media reporting the figures know they lie, and yet they still credulously report them, verbatim, as truth.

After all, if Hamas and Gaza doesn't want casualties, they can end this by releasing all the hostages.  If they don't want civilian casualties they can quit fighting from behind civilians and quit using "civilians" to keep the hostages prisoner.

An outstanding rescue operation by the IDF, Border Police, and intelligence agencies.
