🚨 In the @NYTimes, Bret Stephens dismantles the "genocide" canard leveled at Israel by @bartov_omer. "[B]ungled humanitarian schemes or trigger-happy soldiers or strikes that hit the wrong target or ... vengeful sound bites" by leaders are NOT genocide. nytimes.com/2025/07/22/opi…
I recommend to not play the numbers games. All forms of lies, damned lies, and statistics. Chosen statistics selectively to support people's point of view or premade opinions. To manipulate a innumerate audience. They are provided with no detail or context or comparison. Yes,…
According to his own numbers: Civilian deaths: 32,660 Terrorist deaths: 25,770 That’s almost a 1:1 civilian to combat ratio. Unreal stuff, Israel is incredible! Maybe @SpencerGuard can weigh in and tell us what historical averages are for urban combat?
@LisaDaftari is another one of very few journalists who dare to expose the truth! Thank you for the opportunity to be the voice for the voiceless!! #SaveTheDruze
Asked a "From the River to the Sea" activist why there’s silence on the #Druze being slaughtered in #Syria. She said, "Most people don’t know much about that conflict." But somehow, everyone in a keffiyeh knows the entire history of #Israel? Make it make sense.
NEW: Israel's assassination of 19 Iranian nuke scientists erased decades of knowledge, eliminating Tehran's "most capable and experienced personnel" - "This time the Israeli effort is different, & recovering may be far more difficult and take far longer" freebeacon.com/israel/this-ti…

Bravo, @SebGorka! How else can we bring honesty back to journalism in this country?!
Was in the @WhiteHouse Press Office yesterday when a young reporter barreled in and then came straight up to me. She said “My name’s XX and I’m with the @washingtonpost. Can we interview you on your work for President @realDonaldTrump?” My reply? “You mean the man you’ve…

Interesting how all the 'Free Palestine' activists are silent on the killing of innocent Druze in Syria. So are their Arab neighbors. Only Israel rising up to defend and protect the #Druze.
It turms out that Israel cannot coexist with the Caliphate extremists playing nice in Damascus after all, because they just HAVE to kill non-Sunni Alawites and Druzes. Israel cannot retain the loyalty of its own hard-fighting Druzes if it does not protect their brethren .
