QUESTION: If, as Ed notes, the Intifada has been globalized, doesn’t that mean that it’s been, well, globalized on both sides? If it’s a global Intifada, then isn’t a mosque or Islamic “charity” that, say, provided the guns to the Bondi shooters a legit target for droning? If not, why not? Can you have a global war in only one direction?

UPDATE (From Ed):

“Globalize the intifada” means “kill Jews wherever you find them.” What did you think it means? https://t.co/njS2oYf0HD

ANOTHER UPDATE (FROM GLENN): A friend writes: “I’d say Bondi is exactly what globalize the intifada looks like. Murdering Jews wherever they find them. And every leftie with a keffiyeh should be made to know it.”

Yep. Make them own it.

“This is not a time to mince words. Moral clarity is our sole duty on this dark day. What happened in Bondi in Sydney was an act of fascist barbarism. It was a pogrom on a beach. It was a massacre of Jews that brought to mind the horrors of the mid-20th century. If this pitiless…

UPDATE:

Labor couldn't listen to Israel because the warnings falsified a key tenet of progressive faith: the white man is always the villain and the noble savage is always noble. If that's not true then what else is a lie?

Being progressive is like realizing that you swallowed the wrong pills from the cabinet and in a short time you'll OD. Do you call 911 or try to tough it out so you don't admit to being a fool?

MAKE CHILE GREAT AGAIN! Kast Wins: Migration and Crime Fears Prod Chile to the Right in Presidential Vote. “Regionally, Kast’s triumph represents the latest rebuke of the left in Latin America after Javier Milei’s party won midterm elections in Argentina and Rodrigo Paz ended 20 years of socialist rule in Bolivia. It also gives US President Donald Trump another ally in a region that has increasingly tilted toward China in recent decades.”

I AGREE: Study: Over Half Of Drivers Say Losing CarPlay Is A “Deal Breaker:” A new study finds that more than half of drivers call losing Apple CarPlay a “deal breaker” when choosing a new car.

GOOD POINT: It’d Be Nice if the Trump DOJ Stopped Arguing in Favor of Some Unconstitutional Gun Control Laws.

DECLINE IS A CHOICE: The Blue Zones Are 38% Ruined: but next week it’ll be 39%. “There’s a lot ruin in a blue zone. People in neighborhoods work at the preservation of order while they vote for disorder. Ordinary lives keep the squalor sort of more or less at bay, even when government stops bothering. Blue Model governance is a metastasizing disaster, caring for nothing and going broke while doing it. If you gave Gavin Newsom a dozen bright red roses, I suspect the bouquet would die in his hands before he could put it down. The man is the angel of death. But California isn’t dying; California is sort of okay, because many people sort of still try. The implication is that the decaying places could be turned around pretty easily, even after years of appalling government failure.”

Well, we saw that in NYC under Giuliani.

WELL, STAY TUNED:

I MISS SOME THINGS ABOUT 1995, BUT NOT THE MEDIA ENVIRONMENT:

Why doesn't it matter? Because I regret to inform you that it is no longer 1995. I am not a lithe and energetic 22 year old enjoying a rich and varied nightlife. And the mainstream media does not enjoy one tenth of the agenda-setting power it had back in those golden days.
