Trump campaign warns Biden to 'buckle up' after he's released from 'freezing' court to hit campaign trail
Though Trump blasted the verdict convicting him of multiple felony charges, his campaign is not slowing down
Brooke Singman / FOX News
Even with his guilty verdict, former President
Trump is now free from a "freezing" New York City courtroom after a
six-week trial and is ready to hit the campaign trail once again. His campaign is warning President Biden's team to "buckle up."
Trump was found guilty on all 34 counts of falsifying business records in the first degree in New York v. Trump.
Judge Juan Merchan, who presided over the case, said Trump was required to be in court every day for the trial, except Wednesdays when court was not in session.
The
former president railed against the judge and Democrats daily for
confining him to the courtroom, repeatedly telling reporters and
supporters it was "freezing" and like being stuck in a "freezing cold
icebox."
I've never been a 'Never Trumper'...I voted for Trump in 2016 and 2020, but I was a supporter of Gov. Ron DeSantis this go round (and will be again in 2028). And while I have been considering other options this election...and I do NOT mean voting for any Democrat...after yesterday's overtly political based, Constitutional trampling, abomination of a verdict I now will openly support and vote for Donald J. Trump this November.
And while this does NOT mean I support certain actions of his, it does mean I know right from wrong and that as a Constitutional Republican the words of the Constitution itself...especially regarding "equal justice under the law"...allow for no other option.
Trump...and hopefully either AK Sen. Tom Cotton , ND Gov. Doug Bergum, or NY Rep. Elise Steffanik for VP... and throw Tulsi Gabbard as a possibility as well...in 2024!

Top 10 sharpest mainstream media criticisms of the Trump prosecution
Lindsay Kornick, Hanna Panreck / Fox News
Legal analysts and media pundits have dished out
some strong criticism of Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg's case against Donald
Trump, as the jury deliberates the former president's fate.
Many
pointed to the prosecution's key witnesses, adult film star Stormy
Daniels and former Trump fixer Michael Cohen, suggesting they both had
credibility issues, and some argued that the prosecution did not meet
the reasonable doubt standard.
Trump has pleaded not guilty to 34
counts of falsifying business records related to payments made to
Daniels ahead of the 2016 election.
PROSECUTION FELL ‘WAY SHORT'
Defense attorney Randy Zelin said Tuesday during an appearance on CNN that the prosecution fell "way short" in proving the case beyond reasonable doubt.
"Let’s
start with reasonable doubt. What is reasonable doubt? And it’s not
simply a doubt based upon reason. Any time a human being needs to make
an important decision in life, if you have enough information, for
example, doctor says you need open-heart surgery, ‘Doc, go ahead and
schedule. I don’t have a reasonable doubt,’" Zelin added.
Brace Yourselves for a Trump Conviction Because the Judge Just Tilted the Scales
Matt Vespa / Townhall Tipsheet
The jury is deliberating, and we should be prepared for a conviction.
That’s not to say there isn’t reasonable doubt all over the hush money
trial involving Donald Trump, but this whole trial was a circus from the
start so it’s unsurprising that its finish was more of a clown show. As
Katie wrote this morning, none of this is normal. The judge’s
instructions to the jury is aberrant, with some folks commenting on
social media that these guidelines for the jury wouldn’t be legal in
Zimbabwe. It will only take four jurors to convict Trump [emphasis mine]:
"…Judge Juan Merchan has given the jury their instructions…the
instructions were given verbally and jurors won't receive printed
copies, although they can ask questions.
According to legal
experts, Merchan's standards for a conviction are abnormal and do not
require jurors to reach a unanimous decision on the charges. Further,
jurors don't have to determine what crime was committed...Read more, see Xs and videos here.

NY v. Trump: Judge Merchan to present jury with instructions ahead of deliberations
Trump pleaded not guilty to all charges
Brooke Singman / Fox News
The framework a Manhattan jury will use to consider the charges against former President Trump and reach a verdict will be revealed by Judge Juan Merchan on Wednesday.
The
instructions will be issued nearly a week after they were initially set
for release. It comes after weeks of speculation about the specific
violations the jury will need to determine when weighing the charges of falsifying business records in the first degree against the former president.
Manhattan
District Attorney Alvin Bragg charged Trump with 34 counts of
falsifying business records in the first degree. Trump has pleaded not
guilty to all counts.
The jury instructions are expected to come
after a full day of closing arguments were delivered by New York
prosecutors and Trump defense attorneys.

Here's How Biden Will Get on the Ballot in Ohio
Rebecca Downs / Townhall Tipsheet
Democrats are in a pickle when it comes to getting President Joe Biden on the ballot in Ohio, as Sarah covered last week.
Per state law, the ballot has to be certified 90 days before the
election, but Democrats won't be holding their convention to formally
nominate Biden until August 19-22. The president earned enough delegates
to become the presumptive nominee when he won
the Georgia Democratic Primary in March. Gov. Mike DeWne (R-OH) called a
special session to solve the ballot issue, and DNC Chairman Jaime
Harrison has announced that Democrats will virtually nominate Biden to
get him on the ballot.
As The Hill reported about Harrison's announcement:
“Joe Biden will
be on the ballot in Ohio and all 50 states, and Ohio Republicans agree.
But when the time has come for action, they have failed to act every
time, so Democrats will land this plane on our own,” Harrison said in a
statement.
“Through a virtual roll call, we will ensure that
Republicans can’t chip away at our democracy through incompetence or
partisan tricks and that Ohioans can exercise their right to vote for
the presidential candidate of their choice,” he added. Read more and see X here.

Former Quantico staffer warns of terror attack 'dry run' after Jordanian nationals tried to breach base
2 Jordanians posing as Amazon delivery drivers were arrested after trying to enter Marine Corps Base Quantico in Virginia
Michael Ruiz / Fox News
A former federal firearms instructor who worked at
Marine Corps Base Quantico in Virginia is warning the strange arrest of
two Jordanian nationals in a box truck at the base may have been a "dry
run" to test security outside the facility ahead of a terror attack.
The
same truck, had it been loaded with explosives, could have been a
devastating weapon if it made it close enough to an occupied building,
he warned.
"Driving the box truck was a dry run for driving a box
truck that was not going to be empty the second time," said Dave Katz, a
former DEA agent and the CEO and founder of Global Security Group. "Can
I prove that? No. But it's like the 9/11 hijackers trying to get aboard planes with box cutters on other occasions prior to actually perpetrating the act."
According to the report from the federal government's 9/11 Commission,
conspirators took cross-country test flights, smuggling box cutters
onto planes before determining "the best time to storm the cockpit."
"It's
their equivalent of a feasibility study," Katz said. "What would happen
if we get off the highway in a box truck and try to get into the base?" Read more and see videos here.
Here's How the Biden Administration Is Reportedly Handling Iran Nuclear Deal
Rebecca Downs / Townhall Tipsheet
In case there's any doubt how weak President Joe Biden is on dealing
with Iran, the Wall Street Journal reported in the early morning hours
of Monday that "Biden Administration Presses Allies Not to Confront Iran on Nuclear Program."
Not only is the United States reportedly not going to tell Iran off for
their nuclear program, but is urging our true allies to do the same.
As the report mentions:
BERLIN—The Biden administration is pressing European allies to back off plans to rebuke Iran for advances in its nuclear program,
even as it expands its stockpile of near-weapons-grade fissile material
to a record level, according to diplomats involved in discussions.
The
U.S. is arguing against an effort by Britain and France to censure Iran
at the International Atomic Energy Agency’s member-state board in early
June, the diplomats said. The U.S. has pressed a number of other
countries to abstain in a censure vote, saying that is what Washington
will do, they said. Read more and see Ted Cruz' X here.

Op-ed:
On Memorial Day...And Always
By: Diane Sori /The Patriots Factor /
Right Side Patriots / Right Side Patriots Radio
This
an opinion piece and does not necessarily
represent the views of blogspot.com and was originally published on Memorial Day 2018.
Today is Memorial Day and while many will go to the beach or enjoy a
hearty barbecue, let’s not forget the real reason for this most special
and solemn of days…a day to remember and honor those who put their lives on
the line for our beloved country…a day to remember those who made the ultimate sacrifice
for a purpose they believed was greater than themselves…a purpose of
keeping "We the People" safe and free at home.
And while political battles continue in D.C. and across the nation,
Memorial Day offers us the chance for all Americans…no matter our race,
creed, color, religion, party affiliation, or whether this president is our president of
choice…to unite together and remember the one thing we
all we have in common...gratitude...gratitude for those who
served…gratitude for the
brave men and women who proudly wore but sadly died wearing our nation’s
uniform…gratitude
so that we can go to that beach and can enjoy that barbecue.
On Memorial Day there should be no hyphenated Americans (nor should there ever
be)…just Americans bowing their heads together in prayer as the flag of
these United States is raised throughout this great nation, and then
as it's solemnly lowered to half-staff. On this day let us remember the more
than one million American patriots who gave their lives in service to this
country. And when the flag is once again raised high at noon we must
also remember to not allow their sacrifice to be in vain for a nation that
forgets its true heroes is a nation that loses its soul.
Memorial Day is a day when we should teach our children the importance of
the sacrifices made by so many to ensure their freedoms and the freedoms
of generations to come.
Memorial Day is a day when many Americans will visit cemeteries or memorials
nationwide to place small flags at the base of the headstones of the
fallen to let them know they are not forgotten nor will they ever be.
Memorial Day is a day to honor the remains buried at the Tomb of the "Unknown
Soldier" for while he, brave soldier whomever he may be, is home resting
on American soil he is not with his loved ones, but serves as a
reminder of the many who never made it home, and should remind us that
there are still some left behind who must be brought home.
Memorial Day is a day when the "Pledge of Allegiance" should take on a renewed
meaning, and should reawaken in us all the realization that we do live in the
greatest nation the world has ever known, and remind us that some things are
indeed worth both fighting and dying for.
Memorial Day is a day to honor courage for while those lost in battle knew
fear, they sacrificed with courage of heart and strength of conviction,
something that must never be forgotten for without knowing fear there
can be no courage and without courage there can be no victory. Those who
gave all deemed their love of country and duty to freedom were of
greater value and more important then the fears they faced in dying.
Memorial Day is a day to also honor the very freedoms those lost in battle
gave to each and every one of us…the freedom we have in our beloved
America to act, speak, and think as we so choose without hindrance or
restraint…a freedom we intend never to lose…a freedom we will fight for
with just as much passion, dedication, determination, and courage as
those who sacrificed before us…for we will not allow their sacrifice to
be forgotten nor will we allow our freedoms to be taken away.
No…we will never allow their sacrifice to have been in vain.
Memorial Day is a day for prayers for those lost…a day for honoring their
memories not just with tearful remembrances but also with a smile…a day
to rediscover the meaning of what our military fights and dies for…our
liberty, our safety, our individual rights guaranteed us under our
Constitution, and the continuing American story of which we all play a part in.
So on this Memorial Day I will bow my head in solemn prayer and thank and remember those who
made that ultimate sacrifice to keep our nation free…and pray to God
that someday…"nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither
shall they learn war any more." (Isaiah 2:4)
Someday…someday soon I pray. And may God our Father Bless America today, tomorrow, and always. Copyright @ 2024 Diane Sori / The Patriot Factor / All Rights Reserved.
To all my 'Patriot Factor' blog followers and readers,
This Monday we honor those in our military who lost their lives
defending the very the freedoms we, at times, tend to take for granted. And while I hope you enjoy this Memorial Day weekend, we must never forget those who made such a weekend possible. So please, on Monday, make some time to honor those whose ultimate sacrifice must never be forgotten.

Joe Biden Says the Quiet Part Out Loud About the Election
Sarah Arnold / Townhall Tipsheet
President Joe Biden has finally said what millions of Americans are thinking: that former President Donald Trump will win the 2024 election.
"We cannot win this reelection.. we can only reelect Donald Trump!" Biden said while speaking to a group of rallygoers in Missouri.
Recent polls show that Trump leads Biden in key battleground states including Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin.
Trump holds 48 percent of the vote in these crucial states, while Biden has just 44 percent.
It
is important to note that Biden won several key battleground states in
2020, including Arizona. However, flash forward to today, Trump is on
track to securing the majority of the votes.
Trump vows to 'save' deep-blue New York City in massive, historic Bronx rally
25,000 supporters of the former president descended on Crotona Park, Trump's campaign said
Brandon Gillespie, Paul Steinhauser, Michael Ruiz / Fox News
NEW YORK – Former President Donald Trump
has broken political norms by visiting one of the most deep-blue areas
in New York City, a town not necessarily known for its kindness to
Republicans.
Trump rallied a crowd of what his campaign estimated to be 25,000 supporters at Crotona Park in the Bronx
on Thursday, far more than the initial 3,500 it said were expected to
attend. Those numbers appeared to also include those lined up outside
the event – who waited hours for a shot at getting inside even after the
event began.
New Emails Show John Kerry Blocked FBI From Making Arrests on Iranian Terrorists to Protect Iran Deal
Matt Vespa / Townhall Tipsheet
Everyone knows Obama didn’t want to bomb Iran, which was becoming the
only option to slow their nuclear weapons program unless a deal was
struck. That infamous deal, which became Obama’s signature foreign
policy achievement, did next to nothing to slow Tehran’s ambitions to
acquire weapons of mass destruction. Guy wrote extensively about the
deal’s shortfalls, and now we have a new chapter in the annals of
Obama’s failed foreign policy: the FBI was muzzled from arresting
suspect Iranian agents and terrorists to avoid mucking up the Iran deal
negotiations.
Fox News obtained documents showing that in 2015, John Kerry’s State
Department vigorously stymied the FBI from doing its job regarding
arresting individuals who posed a threat to national security. A
whistleblower has come forward with these allegations (via Fox News):
The Obama-Biden State Department "actively interfered" to prevent the
FBI from executing arrest warrants on individuals illegally in the
United States who were allegedly supporting Iranian financial efforts to
develop weapons of mass destruction, whistleblowers told Sens. Chuck
Grassley and Ron Johnson.Read more, see letter, and emails here.
Trump’s map edge: Biden has tougher path to victory, veteran Dem adviser says
Mike Allen / AXIOS
Just over six months from Nov. 5, longtime Democratic adviser Doug Sosnik tells Axios that while either candidate can win, President Biden has the narrower, tougher path to 270 electoral college votes, for three reasons.
Why it matters: Biden has been rising in polls
since the State of the Union address. But Democrats continue to sweat
their chances in the state-by-state math that determines U.S.
presidents.
The electoral collegefavors Republicans: The last two Republican presidents were first elected despite losing the popular vote.
Biden can no longer count on carrying Michigan, which voted overwhelmingly Democratic in the past three election cycles.
Biden’s 2020 victories in the Sunbelt
battleground states — Arizona, Nevada and Georgia — were due to his
overwhelming support from young and non-white voters. Polling shows
Biden has suffered a significant erosion with these voters during his presidency. Read more here.

Here's When Merrick Garland Will Testify Before the House Judiciary Committee
Rebecca Downs / Townhall Tipsheet
Attorney General Merrick Garland has certainly been in the news quite
a bit lately, as the House Oversight and Committee and House Judiciary
Committee just voted last week to move forward with holding him in
contempt, albeit in the midst of some late night drama. This comes after the Biden Department of Justice (DOJ) has refused to turn over the audio from Special Counsel Robert Hur's investigations, though Matt's highlighted
how Garland has "torched" his own argument. Reports are now coming in
that Garland will also be testifying before the House Judiciary
Committee on June 4 to discuss "broad oversight."
A source familiar confirmed the June 4 date with Townhall as well. Such a date is just two weeks away.
Ted Cruz Didn't Mince Words When Ripping Into Antony Blinken
Matt Vespa / Townhall Tipsheet
Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) showed no mercy toward Secretary
of State Antony Blinken for presiding over unprecedented chaos regarding
American foreign policy before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee
yesterday. The Texas Republican did not mince words ripping into Blinken
and the Biden administration for pushing policies that undermine our
allies and appease and strengthen our enemies.
Cruz bashed our top diplomat for nearly 10 minutes, highlighting the
shambolic mess we’ve created in Ukraine, the inability to curb Iran’s
influence, and our Russian roulette-like tactics with Israel. Trump had
Iran under control. Biden allowed them to be flushed with oil money
again, which Blinken tried to deny, but Cruz kept pushing how the
world’s largest state sponsor of terror was selling 300,000 barrels of
oil a day to 2 million under Biden’s watch. That oil revenue went to
training the Hamas terrorists who carried out the October 7 attacks.

The Op-ed posted here is this authors opinion alone,and does not necessarily

...The Israel/Hamas War will eventually
end, for war itself begins and ends in its own dictated time.
However, I have a suggestion that might help end this war sooner
rather than later, and I'll start by saying that those in Israel
calling for Netanyahu's resignation for not having secured all the
hostages release, to please wake up to the fact that few if any
hostages are still alive.
It's my belief that most were killed
soon after Israel's entry into Gaza, and that's why Hamas has not
surrendered or even agreed to another ceasefire as the hostages, to
them, were always but bargaining chips...bargaining chips now
gone...bargaining chips likely used as “human shields” to
protect Hamas' own miserable lives. Hamas never intended to release
all the hostages for to do so would show weakness and vulnerability
on their part...not something genocidal terrorists want as their
calling card.
Netanyahu knows this as likely as do most not
personally involved, an unfortunate reality that the families of those
taken still have trouble facing. BiBi Netanyahu made a decision to save his
country and its multitude of people, and while we cry for the
hostages now likely lost, imagine instead having to cry for the entire
nation of Israel and the sum of her people lost...Read entire article and see video here.
Wait, The US Senate Chaplain Said What About the Death of the Iranian President
Matt Vespa / Townhall Tipsheet
The President of the Islamic Republic of Iran Ebrahim Raisi died in a
helicopter crash over the weekend. He shouldn’t be mourned or prayed
for. If anything, we should all hope the man is burning in hell. He was a
terrorist, allegedly responsible for the murder of thousands of
dissidents in Iran, earning him the nickname the “butcher of Tehran.”
And yet, you’d thought he was Mother Theresa. Spencer covered the
reaction from our ambassador to the United Nations, which was deplorable:
"The United Nations, unsurprisingly, was generally gutted
to learn that Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi — known as the "butcher
of Tehran" — died in a helicopter crash over the weekend. In a Monday
meeting of the U.N. Security Council, a "moment of silence" was held to
mourn the dead murderer rather than his thousands of innocent victims.
Most
egregiously, United States Ambassador Robert Wood — a Senate-confirmed
Biden nominee who serves as America's Alternate Representative to the
United Nations and its General Assembly — also stood to join the moment
of silence "in remembrance of the loss of life in a crash of the
President of the Islamic Republic of Iran Ebrahim Raisi."
On Monday, Americans for Prosperity (AFP) will host the first of a series of events that will roll back gas prices
from coast to coast "to get a pre-Bidenomics break at the pump." More
than 20 gas stations will participate throughout this week, temporarily
reducing prices to as low as $2.38 per gallon – near the average price
per gallon of gas on the day President Biden assumed office.
"Biden’s
war on American energy has had disastrous results and Americans are
reeling from high gas prices going into the summer," said Akash
Chougule, AFP vice president of government affairs.
"From shutting down the Keystone Pipeline to banning energy leases on
federal land, Joe Biden’s top-down policies have stifled our country’s
energy resources and made even the things like a family road trip more
expensive," Chougule said in a statement. "This week, we are
spotlighting what gas prices could be with policies that unleash our
country’s energy potential."

Lies Told...Truths Not Accepted
By: Diane Sori / The Patriot Factor
/ Right Side Patriots / Right Side Patriots Radio
The Op-ed posted here is this authors opinion alone,and does not necessarily
represent the views of blogspot.comor Google.
“The Biden administration's policy toward Israel and around
the world is to punish our allies and boost our enemies.” - Senator Ted
Cruz (R-TX)
It's official...Joe Biden has proven himself to be a traitor to
Israel on par with that of his puppet master Barack Obama. Two men
interchangeable now working in tandem it seems...two men whose past
and present actions have exposed which side they're really on in
regards to any and everything Israel.
Two men with overlapping policies...dangerous anti-Israel
policies...with Biden now trying to stop Israel from finishing its
intended mission...as in the total elimination of Hamas from Gaza.
And with Biden channeling his inner Obama, not only has he delayed
the entirety of Congress' approved arms shipments* to Israel, but he
has withheld from Netanyahu key intelligence information pertaining to
the exact locations of Hamas' leadership. And Biden is doing so to
cater to the whims of the anti-Israel/ antisemitic sorts here at home
in hopes of garnering their political favor come November's election.
Remember, Obama's inner hatred towards Israel and the Jewish
people can be summed up in this original sentence from his book “The
Audacity of Hope”...that is before editing took place...as in,
“I will stand with the muslims if the politics winds shift in an
ugly direction.” And Biden's stated “unwavering support”
for Israel...said soon after Hamas' October 7th attack on Israeli
civilians...were obviously words spoken with fingers crossed behind
his back. And why...because while Obama knew he'd always get a second
term in office courtesy of his having played the “race card”
throughout his first term thus solidifying for himself a second
term, Joe Biden...even with Obama pulling his strings...has never
been assured of that...voter “irregularities” not
withstanding. And Obama knows that when Biden dares to go “off
script” and speaks for himself, that things not meant for
public consumption suddenly become newsworthy...as has recently
happened.
Time for Obama to pull Biden's strings tighter, especially after
his laying down “red lines” to Netanyahu...“red
lines” telling BiBi that he dare not cross into Rafah to “take
out” what remains of Hamas. And so here I say to Biden, how dare
you tell the duly-elected leader of a sovereign nation what can or
cannot be done in a time of war. Remember Biden...like Obama...is
no friend to Israel*...he never was and he never will be. And this all
came to a head roughly two weeks ago when the U.S. State Department
informed Congress that it intended to bypass laws that bar the U.S.
from selling weapons to nations that boycott Israel. In fact, in the
past Biden has waived these sanctions, but now he says they'll be
extended through April 30, 2025.
Guess Biden forgets that he probably won't be in office come
2025...voter “irregularities” again
not with standing.
So what exactly would these waivers accomplish? Let's start with “aiding
and abetting” our ally Israel's enemies as said waivers would allow
U.S. weapons to be sent to nations that not only support and work closely with Hamas, but with other Iranian proxies as well. Dubious
indeed for the fact is that these waivers were announced just one day
before Biden “threatened” and then followed through the withholding of the aforementioned, Congress approved, weapons
delivery to Israel. And Biden must be called to task...in fact
some have already called for his impeachment***...for these actions
reek of yet another “quid pro quo”...as in “we'll
give you this only if you give us that”...type of scenario. How
so...because Biden is “leveraging” already
approvedU.S. dollars against Israel's intended
military actions in Rafah...actions that might...or might not...entail heavy
“collateral damage.”
But I see Biden's actions actually bordering on, if not crossing
over, into treason. How so...because by his withholding promised
“offensive aid” to Israel, Biden is not only “aiding
and abetting” Israel's enemies but America's enemies as well.
Remember, while Hamas is but one of Iran's proxy armies that use
Iranian monies and equipment in their terrorist attacks, also
remember that Iran is an enemy of the U.S., and that Hamas remains on
the “U.S. Terrorist Watch List.”
In fact, in a recent CNN interview while Biden did say that Israel
would continue to see U.S. support for its “defensive
systems”...as in the “Iron Dome”...he quickly added
the words, “If they [meaning Israel] go into Rafah, I'm
not supplying the weapons that have been used historically to deal
with Rafah, to deal with the cities, that deal with that problem.”
But forgotten by Biden is that the weapons and especially the bombs
he's now withholding from Israel...including another 1,800 U.S. made
2,000-pound “heavy” bombs, and 1,700 U.S, made 500-pound
bombs, plus lesser charged bombs...bombs more adaptable to lessening
“collateral damage”...are the very bombs that Israel has
been using in Gaza since their retaliatory strike on Hamas began.
Simply, Biden is only condemning said bombs use now because of the
growing pro-Hamas/pro Palestinian protests here at home which might
help garner him some votes.
But no matter for Israel has stockpiled enough of these “heavy
bombs” to use in Rafah, it's the smaller diameter bombs...aka
“precision bombs” used
more so for “targeted kills”...that
Israel needed more of if “collateral damage” was
to be kept to a minimum. So Joe Biden's dancing on Obama's pulled stings has actually forced Israel into using the larger bombs, thus allowing
Biden to not only blame Israel for the increase in civilian deaths,
but to also garner votes...a cleverly crafted move indeed.
And yet Biden remains a foolish man for this war never focused on
“precision” based
“targeted kills” for that scenario never
ends wars in fact, at times,
it starts or drags out wars. Israel must do whatever it takes as they
push deeper into Rafah, for the fact remains that with northern Gaza
remaining basically “ungoverned” with sporadic fighting
continuing, remnants of Hamas have begun to strike out against Israel
again. In fact, just before Mother's Day, a small faction of Hamas
operatives launched a rocket into the middle of a children's
playground in Be'er Sheva, Israel. And while, thankfully, no children
were killed, this act plus recently released IDF drone footage showing
Hamas operatives launching attacks on Israel from a UN Works and
Relief Agency warehouse while using official UN vehicles for
transport into Gaza...clearly shows why Hamas must be eradicated in
full for only with Hamas' total defeat will Israeli's be able to live
in what passes for a mere semblance of “normalcy,” let
alone with a sense of “security.”
But the question remaining is, how can “normalcy” or
“security” return to Israel when the very country she
thought was her ally is openly stabbing her in the back. And proof of
this can be seen when Biden, just a week or so ago, sent an
unclassified report to Congress on Israel's, what he called,
“incursion into Gaza.”
An “incursion” isusually referred to as a limited “hostile entrance”
into a territory...an unexpected “raid” if
you will.ButIsrael did not “raid” Gaza...Israel openly and
rightfully declared war on Hamas and all its bases of operation in Gaza,
which now encompasses Gaza itself along with its Hamas supporting
populace...a populace who have yet to condemn Hamas or their barbaric October
7th attack on what were defenseless Israeli civilians...an savage attack specifically
targeting women, babies, and young children.
But what exactly was in the report...a report deliberately held
back until Biden could shed phony crocodile tears in a televised
speech given on “Holocaust Remembrance Day?” Simply, a
twisting of truth to aid Biden in his quest for the
anti-Israel/pro-Hamas vote. Stating that Israel, “likely used
U.S.-made arms to inflict a higher number of civilian casualties in
Gaza than is broadly deemed acceptable”...pray tell what number
of civilian casualties is mitigated to be acceptable in a time of
rightfully declared war...a war against those who committed barbaric,
savage, and inhumane acts...war crimes plain and simple.
Also, stated in the report was that, “the State Department
found that it is reasonable to assess that there are possible
violations with hundreds of investigations open.”
Investigations into what, as mere common sense dictates that sometimes
“an eye for an eye” does indeed become the very solution to a
problem. Also, in regards to the war Israel now finds herself in, if
those siding with Hamas and their Palestinian supporters truly did not
want casualties... if they were really concerned about what surely would be a
mounting civilian death toll...Hamas should not have provoked
Israel...the one country most know would rightfully respond ten-fold
to their having been attacked.
Simply, the ones needing investigation are the traitors within our
government's ranks who dared to questions our ally Israel's actions.
Guess these paper pushing, leftist aligned, bureaucrats and
politicians still don't grasp the meaning of the words “Never
Again.”
And while this report does not say that Israel has violated any
U.S. weapons policy or international humanitarian law...the very
nature and timing of the report's release is what's most telling. How
so...because the report's release just happened to coincide with the
ongoing increase in pro-Hamas/pro-Palestinian, anti-Israel, and
anti-American protests here in the U.S...protests whose partakers cry
over the overinflated numbers of Palestinian lives lost.
Remember publicity, even negative publicity, in today's America
equates more times than not as votes garnered along “blue party
lines,” especially when
numbers are deliberately manipulated to help push forward ones chosen
cause.
Forgotten
by these folks is the fact thatin
war innocent people die...the very nature of war always sees innocent
blood being shed. But what not to be cried over is numbers being
manipulated to help push forward a cause based upon lies. Simply, the
number of (anything but) innocent Palestinian lives lost due to
Israeli bombings has been overinflated two-fold. In fact...and
surprisingly it's the United Nations...the organization who detests
Israel the most...specifically the UN Office for the Coordination of
Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA)...who recently revised and lowered its
Palestinian death count by half...including the number of women and
children killed in the seven-months since Hamas started its war with
Israel.
So much for Hamas’ death toll numbers...numbers continuously
disputed by Israel as said numbers came mostly from the Hamas
controlled “Gaza Ministry of Health”...numbers taken as
truth by both Biden and the anti-Israel sorts who blindly accept the
word of Hamas over that of our ally Israel.
“We will fight with our fingernails if necessary.” - Benjamin Netanyahu. May 9, 2024
The Israel/Hamas War will eventually
end, for war itself begins and ends in its own dictated time.
However, I have a suggestion that might help end this war sooner
rather than later, and I'll start by saying that those in Israel
calling for Netanyahu's resignation for not having secured all the
hostages release, to please wake up to the fact that few if any
hostages are still alive.
It's my belief that most were killed
soon after Israel's entry into Gaza, and that's why Hamas has not
surrendered or even agreed to another ceasefire as the hostages, to
them, were always but bargaining chips...bargaining chips now
gone...bargaining chips likely used as “human shields” to
protect Hamas' own miserable lives. Hamas never intended to release
all the hostages for to do so would show weakness and vulnerability
on their part...not something genocidal terrorists want as their
calling card.
Netanyahu knows this as likely as do most not
personally involved, an unfortunate reality that the families of those
taken still have trouble facing. BiBi Netanyahu made a decision to save his
country and its multitude of people, and while we cry for the
hostages now likely lost, imagine instead having to cry for the entire
nation of Israel and the sum of her people lost.
Simply, Israel must end this war by
any means possible, and it's time for...I believe...Biden and Obama's
instigators in Israel to stop fueling the pain hostage families feel.
The longer Israel has roadblocks thrown in its path to victory, the
more the death toll rises with peace moving further and further away.
And whether some want to accept it or not the only ones then left
standing will be Biden, Obama, Iran, and the indoctrinated folks who
relish and feed on hate. Case closed. __________________________________________________________
* As I was writing this article
Biden approved a “possible transfer” ...note the word "possible" of $700
million in tank ammunition, $500 million in tactical vehicles and $60
million in mortar rounds, minus Congress' approved 1,800 U.S. made
2,000-pound “heavy” bombs; 1,700 U.S, made 500-pound
bombs; plus lesser charged bombs including “precision bombs”
which would help keep “collateral damage” to a minimum.
*** Amongst those calling
for Biden's impeachment for refusing to send certain promised arms to
Israel by soliciting a “quid pro quo” with Israel, is U.S.
Rep. Cory Mills (R-FL) who filed articles of impeachment (HR
1220) on May 13, 2024 accusing Biden of “abusing
his authority by leveraging vital military aid for policy changes.”
