LEE SMITH: Why the Iran Deal Matters.
Nearly a decade after the selling of the Iran deal, it’s much easier now for Americans to see that it was the origin point in a series of hugely consequential lies that have shaped our country at home as surely as they have shaped the lives of people in the Middle East. They lied about Obama’s successor being a Russian spy to delegitimize the government and divide the country, in the hope of removing an elected president from office. They lied about an “insurrection” on Jan. 6, 2021, to justify designating one half of the country as domestic terrorists, in order to put their political opponents in jail. They’ve lied about so many things because they’re certain that their communications infrastructure—where intelligence officers direct big tech and censor what was once America’s independent press—will shape the “information space” on their behalf, effectively controlling what we see, hear, and read. They first built their echo chamber to sell the idea that the Iran deal would stop Iran from getting a bomb; now the echo chamber is everywhere—a high-tech version of how the press is run in countries like Egypt, or Iran.

BRENDAN O’NEILL: A pogrom against Israel. “The West’s leftist haters of Israel will say it’s an ‘act of resistance’. These apologists for radical Islam will dress up this invasion by a movement that was founded with the express purpose of killing Jews as a ‘rebellion’. They will expose, unwittingly, the true extent of their own moral decomposition. For if the world’s only Jewish state angers you more than any other state, even as its civilians are being gunned down and burnt out, then, truly, you have left the realm of politics and entered the realm of bigotry. You have become an intellectual facilitator of the pogrom.”
ISRAEL’S PEARL HARBOR: “Hamas’s invasion was no mere act of terrorism. It was, rather, an act of war carried out by what is effectively a state. Prime Minister Netanyahu got it right when he said, immediately after the invasion was launched, that Israel was at war. The difference is important. If the invasion was just another in a long series of terrorist outrages, then selective reprisals, as in the past, are the presumptive response. In other words, doing again what hasn’t worked before–destroying a few military installations and taking out a handful of political or military leaders. War is different. A war ends only when one side internalizes the fact that it is beaten and loses the will to continue.”
NEWS:
Was just told by Israel’s Ambassador to the UN that there are dozens of American citizens among the hostages in Gaza.

LET’S HOPE:
Perhaps the West has reached the point whhere it can't afford the luxury of incompetence and stupidity any more. The repo man of history is towing our Woke dreams away. Maybe it's time to get back to the basics. This intelligence failure we might survive, but not the next one.

THE CORBYNIZATION OF THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY CONTINUES APACE: Biden Admin Raised Concerns Palestinian Aid Would Boost Hamas. It Went Ahead With Aid Anyway.

SHOCKER: Historically black college’s allegations of racism debunked by investigation. “The Progress-Index story notes the investigation revealed a student had ‘heard a group of Black/African American students using the “n” word amongst themselves, but [it] was not directed toward any particular VSU player,’ and there was ‘some cursing’ but not ‘directed toward VSU’s team.'”
HOW DID THE PALESTINIANS PULL OFF SUCH A MAJOR ATTACK WITHOUT ISRAELI INTELLIGENCE AGENCIES FINDING OUT? Possibly because the agencies were too busy organizing protests against Netanyahu to do their jobs.
WELL, THERE YOU ARE: Hunter Biden cheated on his sister-in-law with hookers funded by his daughter’s college fund. “According to the Mail, Hunter Biden withdrew $20,000 in December of 2018 from his daughter’s college fund to pay for hookers and drugs. The kicker here is not just that Hunter Biden was cheating on his current girlfriend, his sister-in-law Hallie, or that he was prioritizing prostitutes and crack over paying child support for his illegitimate daughter Navy Joan, who was born just a few months prior. It is that the Biden family funds were fungible enough that Hunter Biden was allowed to siphon off five figures from a 529 account belonging to someone else and that he reportedly still has not paid the requisite taxes on it, a full five years later. Even before we had the wire transfer clearly showing Joe Biden, in Delaware, as the beneficiary of Chinese cash scored by Hunter Biden, who was living in California at the time, we had countless pieces of proof, including Hunter’s email claiming as much, that proved Biden family cash, like wives, were essentially communal. Now we have the literal receipts.”
