The UN posted a ‘disclaimer’ at the entrance to its Jerusalem exhibit, which shows 3000 years of Jewish ties to the city, saying its content does not represent the world body’s views.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his wife Sara, along with Jerusalem Affairs and Heritage Minister Zeev Elkin and Israeli Ambassador to the United Nations Danny Danon on Thursday visited the Jerusalem exhibit currently being presented at the UN building in New York, which Netanyahu said highlights the historical truth.

The exhibit includes original archaeological finds that were discovered in Israel and which underscore the continuous link of the Jewish people to Israel and Jerusalem in various periods over 3,000 years.

Among the items that are a First Temple-era  2,700-year-old seal impression inscribed in ancient Hebrew, which was discovered in January, and an inscription from the seal of biblical King Hezekiah, who ruled from 727-698 BCE and helped build Jerusalem into an ancient metropolis and a 7th-century BCE seal with the inscription, “the fifth to Netanyahu, his sons and his relatives.”

Report: NRA Gave Over $7 Million to Hundreds of Schools Across the Country

Beth Baumann / Townhall Notebook

The Associated Press completed an independent analysis of the National Rifle Association's (NRA) public tax filings. What the AP discovered was that the NRA donated roughly $7.3 million to schools across the country between 2010 and 2016.

According to the report, about 500 schools received the money,
mostly through grants designed to promote the shooting sports. The grants were awarded to school programs, such as the Junior Reserve Officer Training Corps, rifle teams, hunting safety courses and agriculture clubs.

Interestingly enough, three-quarters of the schools that received NRA grants were in rural counties that voted for President Donald Trump during the 2016 election.

The Associated Press put together a graphic showing just how much the NRA Foundation has provided schools in each state:

Soros-funded New America Foundation claims “anti-Muslim activity” fueled by “bigoted” rhetoric, not by jihad terror

By Robert Spencer / Jihad Watch

The New America Foundation has received over a million dollars from George Soros’ Open Society Foundations. This article highlighting its “report” on “anti-Muslim activities” is a particularly insidious example of how the Left works to inhibit and shut down all resistance to jihad terror and Sharia oppression. The “report” claims to track “more than 650 […]

Pigs flying: Washington Post calls out Muslim Brotherhood Congressman Ellison’s lies about his ties to Farrakhan

By Pamela Geller / THE GELLER REPORT

It’s not surprising that Ellison would lie about his ties to Farrakhan. He is aware that there might be some political cost in those ties, even though for the most part the left has yawned at the Democrat leaders’ admiration for that notorious racist and Jew-hater. What is surprising is that the Washington Post, of all people, would be calling Ellison out. The WaPo is usually a reliable propaganda organ for the Democrats, purveying Trump-Russia hysteria in large quantities while covering for or ignoring altogether real issues such as the Democrat leadership coddling this anti-Semite. What has gotten into the Post? Have they decided to actually try to practice some journalism? It would be a first.

“DNC vice chair Keith Ellison and Louis Farrakhan: ‘No relationship’?,” by Glenn Kessler, Washington Post, March 9, 2018:

“We’re talking about something that happened in 1995. This was the year that the Million Man March took off. People were attacking the march at the time. . . . Man, I’m telling you back in 2006 and before, I disavowed them. That’s the ridiculous thing about this, that we keep on having to answer this kind of stuff.”
— Rep. Keith Ellison (D-Minn.), interview on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe,” Dec. 14, 2016
