Israel has a long history of actions against its Christian minority. Israeli forces have desecrated churches, rabbis have endorsed killing non-Jewish civilians (including children), New Testaments have been burned. While there are many Israelis who have opposed these actions and respect Christians, the fact is that discrimination against Christians is endemic in the Israeli system. Like Muslims, Christians have been persecuted by Israel ever since it was established in 1948...

On Wednesday morning one of the headlines on the Fox News homepage was: "Israel threatens to shut down new TV channel for preaching 'gospel of Jesus." This was the latest in a long line of anti-Christian actions by Israel.

After awhile the article was bumped from the Fox headlines for more recent news, and the story largely vanished from view. It didn't appear in the World news list of articles, although older news stories were featured there. While the report is still on the Fox site, it is unlikely that many people will see it.

No other mainstream U.S. news organization even mentioned this Israeli action, despite the fact that all report on Israel frequently - and despite the fact that Israel receives a great deal of money from many Christians.

Here comes the Covid-19 Gestapo: Illinois Democrat introduces $100 billion 'contact tracing army' bill. It's name? 'HR 6666 TRACE'

Ein Reich, Ein Volk, Ein Corona

Illinois Democratic Rep. Bobby Rush has introduced the H.R. 6666 TRACE Act, which includes a $100 billion grant program which would authorize the Secretary of Health and Human Services to create an army of contact tracers operating through healthcare, schools and nonprofit entities, who would perform COVID-19 diagnostic testing "through mobile health units and, as necessary, at individuals' residences, and for other purposes."

Absolutely. My bill, the COVID-19 TRACE Act (H.R. 6666) would create a $100 BILLION grant program for local organizations to hire, train, and pay individuals to operate mobile testing units and conduct contact tracing in hot spots and medically underserved areas. https://t.co/5YGK34ifsU

"Until we have a vaccine to defeat this dreaded disease, contact tracing in order to understand the full breadth and depth of the spread of this virus is the only way we will be able to get out from under this," Rush says on his website.

Leftist professor demolishes Obama's rant on Gen Flynn

Leftist professor Jonathan Turley took on Barack Obama and his rant against the dismissal of the charges against Gen Michael Flynn.

In fact, constitutional scholar, Barack Obama did not even get the charges right.

Recent document releases show that Barack Obama discussed charging Flynn with violating the Logan Act, which became law in 1799 and has never been used successfully.

Many legal experts claim that the law is patently unconstitutional.

'European virus': Cuomo goes all-in on Covid-19 language gymnastics in standoff with Trump

RT
Tue, 12 May 2020 14:10 UTC

New York Governor Andrew Cuomo called Covid-19 the "European virus," to zero pushback from the press that gave President Donald Trump no end of trouble back when he called it a "Chinese virus."

Outlining a plan to reopen some parts of the state for business - while keeping New York City and its environs under strict lockdown - at a press conference on Monday, Cuomo argued that the virus came to New York from Europe, not China, and even referred to it as the "European virus" multiple times.

At the same press conference, Cuomo argued that the virus came from Europe in January and "no one knew" about it, appearing to blame the federal government and US intelligence for the fact that New York came to account for about a quarter of all US Covid-19 cases and deaths.

"With all the sophistication, with all the public health organizations, with that whole alphabet soup of agencies, nobody knew the virus was coming from Europe," the governor said.

Comment: More political word games catering to the media and hysterical Leftists' desire to see bigots and racists everywhere.

The political battleground of the virus has been drawn

U.S. professor of history at John Hopkins University, Mike Vlahos, in a series of short interviews with John Batchelor, tells us how Coronavirus has become a fiery pivot, pushing different leaders in the U.S. to take existential stands on how to deal with this virus. With various separate American states insisting to pursue directly polarised paths: Mandated 'sheltering' (the U.S. term for distancing) versus economic opening; States versus the Federal government; Blue versus Red; Dems versus GOP; 'authoritarianism' versus Laissez Faire and traditional American liberties - and now, internal state, Blue-Red conflicts (i.e. Ventura County versus California's Governor, on the burning issue of open or closed beaches); and even, counties versus states.

Vlahos notes the point is that that the battleground, thanks to the virus, has turned existential. No more is Blue/Red just a crafted rhetorical flourish - It is embodied; it is of biological flesh; it cuts into flesh - even as the virus' future is unknown. In fact, the unknown deepens fears. The choice: 'food on the table' in a re-opened the economy (even at the real risk of those 'doctors of death' returning), or to play safe, passively, with distancing. The collective psyche is split; passions are raised; weapons are flourished, and militia parade. This is not theatre: Its fervour is suffused into daily life: masks or not; socialise or not; work or not.

Greenmail: Trudeau makes Covid-19 aid intended to 'save Canadian jobs' conditional on meeting 'climate change goals'

Protesters demand the removal of Covid-19 restrictions outside the Ontario legislature in Toronto, Canada April 25, 2020.

Adding insult to the injury of Covid-19 closures, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has announced that businesses seeking emergency payroll funding will have to demonstrate their compliance with 'climate change' guidelines.

Citing the need to protect "Canadian middle-class jobs and safeguard our economy," Trudeau on Monday rolled out the expansion of the Large Employer Emergency Financing Facility (LEEFF), intended to provide bridge liquidity to companies unable to meet their payroll due to the shutdown.

Comment: It seems Trudeau isn't above holding people and companies hostage to force through his misguided agenda. There's really no level to which he won't stoop to utilize crisis after crisis to increase the reach of the nanny state.

"Nazi-like measures" - Kansas City orders churches to turn over membership lists 'because Covid-19'

Mayor Quinton Lucas

Kansas City Mayor Quinton Lucas, a Democrat, has ordered pastors to turn over the names, address and phone numbers of anyone who enters church houses.

(This is something I predicted would happen in my new book, "Culture Jihad: How to Stop the Left From Killing a Nation." Click here for that book.)

"Never in our wildest dreams could we have imagined Nazi-like measures designed to surveil, track and spy upon what was once a FREE American people," Liberty Counsel founder Mat Staver said. "Yet that is exactly what Kansas City's misguided government officials are now demanding."

Liberty Counsel, a law firm that handles religious liberty cases, tells the Todd Starnes Radio Show that they are representing several churches that allege their constitutional rights are being violated.

Comment: Several weeks into the lockdown (and the amount of good information that is available on the virus) and we are still gobsmacked at the high levels of ignorance, authoritarianism, irrationality and downright pathology on display by so many Mayors and Governors around the the US. Add in a complicit media and a cowed, fearful and hystericized portion of society into the mix - and you've got an extraordinary amount of crazy-making being inflicted upon millions of Americans who are reasonably questioning why their lives are being totally upended. These conditions do not bode well for the overall health of the country, and appear to be worsening by the day. Take heed.

After the lockdowns: The Chinese system comes to America

The plan: use the "pandemic" as the rationale for "re-imagining" the guts of society — education, the workplace, medical care, transportation, public events, social relationships, the family...

Thus installing a new culture.

That desiccated dusty vampire, NY Governor Cuomo, and the cosmically psychopathic Howdy Doody, Bill Gates, are in the process of re-imagining education in NY State. Naturally, it's all about more computers, and remote learning.

I guess the dinosaur called BOOKS won't work, because there's no glowing screen, and the ability to read is a prerequisite.

In other news, the Chinese social credit system is coming to corporate America. (The Wall St. Journal has a relevant podcast, "Welcome Back to the Office, Your Every Move Will Be Watched.") Huge companies are scrambling to put together packages to sell to other huge companies:

Social distancing in offices, automatically monitored in real time; a caste system for employees based on health indicators; a credit score for each worker at the end of the day showing up on his cell phone; wall-to-wall surveillance...

Not just for now. For the new "re-imagined" America after the lockdowns are relaxed.

Unconstitutional, you say? Yes, there will be legal cases. This is called at-will employment. A corporation tells an employee: "You don't want to submit to an antibody test? Or a vaccine? You don't want to carry your cell around with you at work, so we can accomplish minute-to-minute contact tracing? You don't want to wear a wrist band that measures social distancing? Fine. We understand. This is a free country. But you can't work here anymore..."

How could this happen?

German media watchdog rejects Browder's complaint against Der Spiegel over Magnitsky story report

RT
Mon, 11 May 2020 21:16 UTC

Says his own narrative lacks proof

Bill Browder's complaint against Der Spiegel for questioning the story he used to push for anti-Russian sanctions has backfired, with Germany's Press Council concluding his own position is far from being an "indisputable fact."

"We cannot agree with your analysis, in which you criticize the allegations made by the author," the German Press Council - a monitoring organization formed by major German publishers and journalistic associations - said in its response to Browder's team, as it rejected the complaint against one of Germany's major news media outlets.

The papers detailing the council's decision were published on Twitter by Der Spiegel reporter Benjamin Bidder, who authored an investigative bombshell picking apart Browder's story about his auditor Sergey Magnitsky's death back in November 2019.

Comment: Slimy vulture capitalist Browder has been exposed multiple times, but the stories aren't allowed to gain traction in the MSM. Browder is a washed-up, mid-tier financial bandit who managed to get himself cast as a humanitarian crusader. Having played his part in inflicting economic damage on Russia, is he now being hung out to dry?

'Obamagate': Trump accuses Obama of committing the 'biggest political crime' in US history

Fresh revelations show former U.S President Barack Hussein Obama was directly involved in an abuse-of-power plot, and may have committed prosecutable crimes. These appear to show a relation to allegations that Obama was involved in an 'impeachment scam' against U.S President Trump. For his part, Trump has officially stepped into the ensuing media battle over last week's disclosure of notes surrounding the debunked 'Russiagate' narrative, leading up to what is now purported as a 'leaked call' showing that Obama was connected to sowing discord for Trump surrounding his coronavirus response.
