Israel/Palestine

On Saturday's edition of MSNBC's The Weekend, former CIA Director and current MSNBC analyst John Brennan claimed it was "absurd" to suggest that President Trump fired C.J. Brown, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, because of his woke agenda. In fact, there is copious evidence of Brown having pushed a DEI agenda.

This week, the world was reminded of the deep and abiding evil that has wormed its way to the center of Palestinian nationalistic culture by the news that the Bibas family – a mother, Shiri; a 4-year-old boy, Ariel; and his 9-month-old brother, Kfir – who had been kidnapped back to Gaza on Oct. 7 had in fact been murdered.

There are only three things certain in life: death, taxes, and the BBC having to issue a correction after publishing a bit of Hamas propaganda.

The New York Times is apparently more concerned about taxpayer-funded goods from USAID not making their way into Hamas-controlled Gaza than USAID potentially funding Hamas terrorists.

CNN's Jim Sciutto, sitting in for Kasie Hunt on CNN This Morning, teed up a Palestinian to repeatedly accuse Trump of "ethnic cleansing" in Gaza, and Israel of "genocide." Sciutto never raises October 7th, Hamas, or hostages.

On CNN This Morning, Dan Senor, an expert on Israeli affairs, says that the essence of Trump's statement on Gaza is that we must not do what has failed before -- rebuilding Gaza while permitting Hamas to remain involved. He does express unequivocal opposition to the notion of American boots on the ground in Gaza.

On Wednesday afternoon, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt’s third press briefing mostly centered around two wildly different issues of transgenderism and the future of the Gaza Strip (especially in light of President Trump’s Tuesday claim the U.S. would take it over). And, as she’s done, called on a wide swath of reporters from legacy liberal networks to our friends in conservative…

On Wednesday’s CBS Mornings and CBS Mornings Plus, there was a sense of anger, disbelief, and shock at President Trump’s bombshell declaration Tuesday that the U.S. would oversee the rebuilding of the Gaza Strip. Between interviews with White House National Security Adviser Michael Waltz and then former Obama and Biden official Samantha Vinograd, CBS suggested U.S. involvement was not…

Reacting Wednesday on NBC’s Today to President Trump’s bombshell proposition Tuesday that the United States should take over the Gaza Strip to make it the Riviera of the Middle East, chief foreign correspondent Richard Engel decried this as having elicited “shock and horror” from Middle East leaders and argued a Trump administration rebuilding the terrorist state “would be the —…

Amanpour & Co. invited rabidly anti-Israel voice Peter Beinart to discuss his latest screed of a book, Being Jewish After the Destruction of Gaza. Beinart, former editor for the once-respected liberal journal The New Republic and political analyst for the not-so-respected cable channel MSNBC and editor at the even more ridiculous Jewish Currents, made…

On Monday's The ReidOut show, MSNBC political analyst Peter Beinart declared that he hopes President Donald Trump is tried for war crimes at The Hague in response to the President recommending that Gaza's population be relocated to neighboring Arab countries. He went on to label the suggestion "monstrous," "depraved," and "racist."

On Thursday afternoon, the great Steven Nelson of the New York Post put more meat on the bone regarding reports bumbling, fumbling, stumbling White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre barred national security advisor and spokesman John Kirby from speaking to reporters about the Israel-Hamas ceasefire and hostage deal because she didn’t want arguably the only adult in the Biden…

On Morning Joe, Jonathan Lemire says there's skepticism the hostage deal will hold because Netanyahu -- not Hamas! -- might "submarine" it.

Wednesday afternoon brought us the final Biden White House press briefing and, by her own count, the 306th featuring the ever-inept Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre. It featured Jean-Pierre emotionally patting herself on the back, plenty of unanswered questions (mostly stemming from the monumental Israel-Hamas ceasefire deal), the final Jacqui Time, and even Jean-Pierre doing her own…
