New York police arrest man for attacking Jew in suspected hate crime
[IsraelTimes] Suspect allegedly punched an ultra-Orthodox man on a Brooklyn street during Shabbat

New York police arrested a suspect on Tuesday for allegedly punching a Jewish man on a street in Brooklyn last month.

The attack is being investigated as a hate crime.

The New York Police Department said it had arrested Babyson Dumervil, 24, and charged him with assault.

Police said the suspect crossed a street to approach an ultra-Orthodox man late at night and punched him in the nose.

The attack occurred on January 22 during Shabbat in the Crown Heights neighborhood.

Before the arrest, the Anti-Defamation League had offered a reward of $5,000 for information on the attack.

The arrest comes amid a string of antisemitic incidents in the New York region. On Tuesday, city Councilwoman Rita Joseph reported antisemitic graffiti in a New York subway station. She posted a photo showing the racial slur "kike" written on a wall five times. On Sunday, a truck driver shouted at Jews in Brooklyn, "Go back to your fucking country, let Hitler kill you." His company fired him for the comments.

On Saturday, a snow plow driver deliberately blasted two ultra-Orthodox Jewish men with snow in Lakewood, New Jersey. He posted the video online with the caption, "This one’s for you JC," apparently referring to Jesus Christ. The Anti-Defamation League called the incident "as dangerous as it is disturbing." His employer, Waste Management, fired him.

Last week, the Shmira Jewish community protection group said a man was chasing people with a machete in Brooklyn, and an assailant accosted a Jewish woman on a train in the borough.

"You little Jewish girl better get off this train before I hurt you," he said.

On Monday, New York police responded to threatening phone calls against Yeshiva University, although it wasn’t clear if they were motivated by antisemitism.

New York police made two other arrests for alleged hate crimes against Jews last month. In one incident, a woman told Jewish children, "Hitler should have killed you all" and spit on them. In another, a man allegedly assaulted a Jewish man for wearing an Israel Defense Forces sweatshirt.

Hate crimes usually do not result in arrests in New York.

Jews are targeted in hate crimes more than any other group in New York City, by far. The NYPD reported 198 confirmed hate crimes against Jews last year, out of 524 total hate crimes in the city.

Texas good Samaritan shot several times while saving woman from suspect pointing gun at her
[FoxNews] A good Samaritan in Texas is being hailed as a hero after he was shot several times while trying to save a woman from a suspect who was allegedly holding her at gunpoint early Tuesday.

The shooting unfolded just before 2:30 a.m. in the 9500 block of Lockwood Drive, Houston police said.

The woman, whose name was not immediately released, told police that she was walking when a dark-colored Kia pulled up and someone inside pointed a gun at her, FOX26 Houston reported.

The good Samaritan, identified by neighbors only as Marcus, was across the street when he spotted the woman being held at gunpoint and yelled at the suspect to leave her alone, according to the station.

"He really is a good person. He will stand up for anybody," neighbor Sheila Stagg told the station of Marcus.

But police said the gunman turned his attention away from the woman, got out of the car, and fired several shots at Marcus, striking him twice in the leg and once in the arm.

He was rushed to a hospital in stable condition.

Another neighbor told the station the Marcus' heroic actions were unsurprising.

"He’s a really good guy, and I’m not surprised he risked his life to save somebody else because that’s just the kind of thing he would do," Brittany Garcia said.

Police were still searching for the suspect as of Wednesday morning.

US Army to immediately start discharging vaccine refusers
[AlAhram] The US Army said Wednesday it will immediately begin discharging soldiers who have refused to get the mandatory COVID-19 vaccine, putting more than 3,300 service members at risk of being thrown out soon.

The Army's announcement makes it the final military service to lay out its discharge policy for vaccine refusers.

The Marine Corps, Air Force, and Navy have already discharged active-duty troops or entry-level personnel at boot camps for refusing the shots. So far, the Army has not discharged any.

According to data released by the Army last week, more than 3,300 soldiers have refused to get the vaccine.

The Army has said that more than 3,000 soldiers have been issued official written reprimands, which suggests they are already identified in the disciplinary process, and some of them could be among the first to be discharged.

The Pentagon has ordered all service members _ active-duty, National Guard, and Reserves _ to get the vaccine, saying it is critical to maintaining the health and readiness of the force. COVID-19 cases continue to surge around the country as a result of the omicron variant.

Roughly 97% of all Army soldiers have gotten at least one shot. More than 3,000 have requested medical or religious exemptions.

Army Secretary Christine Wormuth issued the directive Wednesday ordering commanders to begin involuntary separation proceedings against those who have refused the shots and do not have a pending or approved exemption.

``Army readiness depends on soldiers who are prepared to train, deploy, fight and win our nation's wars,'' she said.

``Unvaccinated soldiers present a risk to the force and jeopardize readiness. We will begin involuntary separation proceedings for Soldiers who refuse the vaccine order and are not pending a final decision on an exemption.''

The order includes active-duty soldiers, reserves serving on active duty, and cadets at the Military Academy at West Point, its preparatory school, and ROTC.

The detailed order said soldiers will be discharged for misconduct, and noted that those who are eligible to retire may do so before July 1.

Overall, nearly 600 Marines, airmen, and sailors have been thrown out of the military or dismissed from entry-level training at boot camps as of last week.

The military services have been going through a methodical process to deal with those who refuse the vaccine as well as those who request medical, administrative, or religious exemptions.

The reviews require counseling with medical personnel and chaplains as well as senior commanders.

#3  ^ very good point. Ore-COVID insanity, the brass was warning that some very low percentage of US 18 year-olds would even avoid automatic disqualification for service -- let alone choose, let alone be chosen, let alone survive basic training.

We won't come close to full staffing. This is a complete debacle that can only be solved, realistically and in the foreseeable future, by reducing our manpower and reducing overseas commitments.

And you ain't seen nothin' yet: the monstrous side effects of the "vaccines" and the years of lockdowns have destroyed this generation. We're facing a nuclear winter when it comes to manpower for the next generation of soldiers, workers, parents, etc.

ABC suspends Whoopi Goldberg from ‘The View’ for ‘hurtful’ Holocaust comments
[IsraelTimes] Network tells co-host to take a two-week break ’to reflect and learn about the impact of her comments’; move comes despite apologies for saying Nazi genocide ’not about race’.
The vicious mendacity of the unthinkingly conformist Progressive. She’s a Baby Boomer, so doesn’t have the excuse of ignorance — this was all over the news the first thirty years of her life.
Whoopi Goldberg has been suspended from her role as co-host of ABC’s popular "The View" talk show after an uproar over her comments in which she said the Holocaust was "not about race," the network said Tuesday night.

"Effective immediately, I am suspending Whoopi Goldberg for two weeks for her wrong and hurtful comments," ABC News president Kim Godwin said in a statement.

"While Whoopi has apologized, I’ve asked her to take time to reflect and learn about the impact of her comments," Godwin said. "The entire ABC News organization stands in solidarity with our Jewish colleagues, friends, family and communities."

Hours before the announcement, the Page Six entertainment news site quoted ABC sources as saying that there was mounting anger at ABC and at parent company Disney that Goldberg has not been disciplined.

"ABC staffers and Disney Network execs are saying Whoopi went way too far. And board members are not happy with her apology and want a fuller retraction. The word is that Whoopi is in ’deep shit,’" the source told Page Six, adding that several of her co-hosts were among those saying Goldberg was "too controversial now for the show."

Goldberg apologized on Monday for saying the Holocaust was not about race, comments that sparked a firestorm of controversy, but not before appearing to double down on the statement in another interview.

On Monday morning, she made the initial comments on "The View" program.

"The Holocaust isn’t about race," but rather about "man’s inhumanity to man," she said. The statement drew condemnations from Jewish groups including the Auschwitz Memorial and the Anti-Defamation League.

Later Monday, she made similar comments on "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert" while discussing the controversy.

"I thought it was a salient discussion because as a black person I think of race as something that I can see, so I see you and I know what race you are and the discussion was about how I felt about that," Goldberg said about her earlier statements.

"People were very angry and they said, ’No, no, we are a race,’ and I understand," Goldberg said.

Colbert asked Goldberg, "Have you come to understand that the Nazis saw it as race? Because asking the Nazis, they would say, ’Yes, it’s a racial issue.’"

She responded: "The Nazis lied. It wasn’t. They had issues with ethnicity, not with race, because most of the Nazis were white people and most of the people they were attacking were white people. So to me, I’m thinking, ’How can you say it’s about race if you are fighting each other?’"

Goldberg has also come under fire for her stage name during the controversy. Born Caryn Elaine Johnson, Goldberg has no Jewish ancestry, but adopted her stage name to be deliberately Jewish-sounding, in part because she has said she personally identifies with Judaism. She told a London audience in 2016, "I just know I am Jewish.
No, my dear Ms Johnson, you are not. A fact for which I — as a real Jew with my mother’s (and most of her family’s) real Holocaust experience to show for it — am profoundly grateful. Bad enough that I have to share species and s3x with you without being more closely related.
I practice nothing. I don’t go to temple, but I do remember the holidays."
I remember Kwanzaa without practicing it, which does not make me African-American.
In 2016, she designed a Hanukkah sweater for Lord & Taylor.
That woman is a walking example of cultural appropriation.

#1  A no-talent ugly moronic freak. Other than that, she's America's Sweetheart
Posted by: Merrick Ferret || 02/03/2022 0:52 Comments || Top||

#2  From the SJW view, Whoopi has a point. "Race" means black and white. Jews are whites. Therefore Germans vs. Jews was just an intra-white squabble and had nothing to do with race. This isn't some fringe view, it's what the professors at Harvard, Yale, Princeton, etc. all think, and it's what they're teaching their students. Moreover, with the browning of America, people are less interested in the quarrels of Old Europe. It has nothing to do with them and they don't see why they should care. Do Americans care about the ancient hatreds between the Burmans and the Shan? Of course not.

Also from her point of view, she's Jewish, so she's talking about her own people. Goldberg, remember? If you can change your gender identity at will, why not your ethnic identity? It makes perfect sense.

This is why you study your enemy: you can know what they're thinking instead of dismissing them as idiots. This is why the right keeps getting its ass kicked in the culture war, not bothering to grok what is really going on. If anyone would like an education, here's a good start:

#3  Born Caryn Elaine Johnson, Goldberg has no Jewish ancestry, but adopted her stage name to be deliberately Jewish-sounding

She’s Rachel Dolezal in reverse. And meanly parochial in her understanding, though she plays up the idea that she is what Spike Lee calls the Magical Negro trope she played in Star Trek.

But that’s the external reality that contrasts to the SJW mind games Sheter the Lesser9291 describes.

To make fun of Jews and Judaism? OK, I see the logic of appealing to self-hating Hollywood left-libs. High hit rate on that.

Or did she join "Whoopi" to "Goldberg" because she thought she'd get invited to more casting couches by directors who didn't ask to see a head shot and guessed she was a kinkier version of Goldie Hawn or Natalie Portman?
Posted by: Merrick Ferret || 02/03/2022 8:20 Comments || Top||

#10  I have no doubt she believes non-black people are white and she sees race as color of skin as she stated on Colbert's program. She was willing to take on he appearance of being Jewish in order to further her appeal as a miniority to get more recognician. Just another grifter.

Australia is trialling using HUMAN URINE as fertiliser for plants and lawns in city parks
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] Indecent exposure meets public service.
  • Australian experts are working with authorities to roll out special toilets in 2022

  • The toilets would separate valuable chemicals in urine to use as plant fertiliser

  • Urine contains nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium - all essential plant nutrients

  • One researcher has called human urine 'a treasure trove of liquid gold nutrients'

While "One researcher has called human urine 'a treasure trove of liquid gold nutrients'"

I am sure others are wondering about the residual bacteria and related issues...

eg. A county in GA. had a waste processing plant that was offering processed human solid waste to farmers. Which used it to grow grass/hay as feed for numbers.

That GA. county now is/was paying the farmers for infecting their fields with contaminated solid waste. Many farmers quickly saw the annual payments were pennies on the Dollar and have sold the infected land to developers that are placing houses and Apartments on them.

#8  you are right, stand corrected

as an aside from WIKI:Urine plays an important role in the earth's nitrogen cycle. In balanced ecosystems, urine fertilizes the soil and thus helps plants to grow. Therefore, urine can be used as a fertilizer. Some animals use it to mark their territories. Historically, aged or fermented urine (known as lant) was also used for gunpowder production, household cleaning, tanning of leather and dyeing of textiles.

In the 11 days since a truck hauling 100 monkeys from Mauritius crashed in Pennsylvania, one woman who got close to the scattered crates of monkeys on the highway has been treated for possible symptoms of illness.

And Kenya Airways, which is believed to have transported the monkeys to the United States, has decided not to renew its expiring contract to ship research primates here.

No other reports of possible illness related to the crash have emerged, according to state and federal health officials, who said it was not known whether the Pennsylvania woman’s symptoms were related to the cynomolgus macaques, which were being quarantined and monitored for diseases.

Experts said that direct exposure to monkey saliva or feces could be dangerous, but that the risk of a broader outbreak was low.



Ok, why aren't these animals going through USDA quarantine facilities? These aren't domestic animals, and should have been under USDA rules and jurisdiction. Vegas style. What are the odds our troll Fraudci is somehow connected?

#2  Short answer they where in route to the CDC which is a USDA quartatine site. Believe me USDA doesn't have enough space at their port of entry sites to do this.For example most zoos are USDA certified for this.Which is the reason you shouldn't smuggle your cute little doggie into the zoo, They could have it offed for breaking USDA quarantine.

Native American tribes reach $590 million opioid settlement with Johnson & Johnson over disproportionately high death and addiction rates
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]
  • Drugmaker Johnson & Johnson and AmerisourceBergen, McKesson and Cardinal Health, reached a $590 million settlement with Native American tribes

  • All federally recognized tribes in the U.S. will be able to participate in the settlements, even if they did not sue over opioids

  • One study cited in the settlement found that Native Americans have had the highest per capita rate of opioid overdose of any population group in 2015

  • Under the settlement Johnson & Johnson- who stopped selling opioids- would pay $150 million over two years

  • AmerisourceBergen McKesson and Cardinal would contribute $440 million in total over seven years

Government Corruption
More secret flights? Biden administration quietly begins flying Venezuelan migrants to Colombia
[Hot Air] Remember when Joe Biden pledged to have the most transparent administration — evah? Good time, good times. Time and time again reports have come out that prove this administration is one of the most secretive ever in recent times. Another example has come to light as it pertains to the Biden border crisis. DHS is quietly flying illegal Venezuelan migrants to Colombia.

Why are they flying to Colombia instead of their home country? Because their country will not accept them back. The Biden administration is using Title 42 to expel them back to South America. Illegal Venezuelan migrants who lived in Colombia before coming to the U.S. are going back to Colombia. Though they entered via Mexico, Mexico will not accept South Americans.

We know about the unprecedented flood of illegal migrants at the southern border. From time to time the surge of illegal migrants is mostly single adult migrants from countries that Mexico will not accept once they are expelled from the U.S. This is one of those times that the administration admits to having such a problem. The majority of illegal migrants fluctuates between a majority of unaccompanied minors, and of families, and single adults, mostly males. This latest quiet action coming from the Biden administration is to remove the Venezuelans to help get the flood of migrants under control. There has been an explosion in the number of Venezuelan migrants in recent weeks.

Klingon study - Stress and Insanity may not be the only causes for Havana Syndrome
[BBC] Pulsed electromagnetic energy "plausibly explains" some of the cases of the mysterious "Havana Syndrome" illness, a new US intelligence community report says.

There has been a contentious debate over whether symptoms afflicting US staff around the world were caused by some kind of device or were psychological in nature.

The latest report from a US Intelligence Community panel of experts says the symptoms are "genuine and compelling" and may have been caused by an external source.

But the panel does not look at who might be responsible.

Beginning in Havana, Cuba in 2016, US intelligence officers and diplomats began complaining of an array of unusual symptoms. At first, the claims were largely dismissed within government.

But in the last year, they have been taken more seriously with US officials have been encouraged to report similar symptoms. That has led to a flood of cases, numbering at least a thousand from around the world.

A January CIA study found no evidence of a widespread campaign by a foreign state and said many cases could be explained by natural causes or stress. However, it acknowledged that a number remained unexplained.

This new study examined more than 1,000 classified documents and interviewed witnesses to focus on a group of people suffering a particular set of symptoms (officials will not disclose the exact number).

They concluded that this set of cases cannot be explained by environmental or medical conditions and could have been caused by some kind of external source or device. "We've learned a lot," said one intelligence official familiar with the work of the panel.

The panel found four "core characteristics" that represented the symptoms - including a sense of pressure and that something was coming from a particular direction or location.

It examined the plausibility of five potential causes: acoustic signals, chemical and biological agents, ionizing radiation, natural and environmental factors, and radiofrequency and other electromagnetic energy and studied whether some kind of concealed device could create the reported symptoms.

The panel found that psychological or social factors could not alone explain the symptoms although they could have compounded some of the problems for those affected. It also found that they could not be explained by environmental or medical conditions.

"Several aspects of this unique neurosensory syndrome make it unlikely to be caused by a functional neurological disorder," the panel said. That pointed towards an "external stimuli" or source, in the view of the panel.

Lockdowns ‘Imposed Enormous Economic & Social Costs’, Had ‘Little To No Public Health Effects’; New Johns Hopkins Study Finds
[ZeroHedge] The study was authored by Jonas Herby, special advisor at Center for Political Studies in Copenhagen, Denmark; Lars Jonung, professor emeritus in economics at Lund University, Sweden; and Steve H. Hanke, a Professor of Applied Economics and Founder & Co-Director of The Johns Hopkins Institute for Applied Economics, Global Health, and the Study of Business Enterprise.

The authors wrote that "While this meta-analysis concludes that lockdowns have had little to no public health effects, they have imposed enormous economic and social costs where they have been adopted."
Or as Adam Carolla put it: "You closed the beaches down, you closed the schools down, cloth masks were gonna save us all, the vaccine was gonna be effective, natural immunity wasn’t effective — what have you been right about?"
Courtesy of Skidmark, the Daily Mail has graphs and things, along with the following punch points:
  • Meta-analysis of 24 studies found Covid lockdown restrictions caused just 0.2% reduction in virus deaths

  • Economists who carried out review said border closures had virtually zero effect on Covid mortality (-0.1%)

  • However, researchers found closing nonessential shops was most effective intervention, causing 10.6% fall

Say goodbye to smashed phone screens! Scientists develop a new material that is as light as plastic but stronger than STEEL ‐ and is up to six times more difficult to damage than bulletproof glass
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] I don’t know about the rest of you, but this is going to make Mr. Wife’s budget very happy. I do not dance gently through life.
  • The material was made by Massachussets Institute of Technology-led experts

  • It is formed from layers of tiny molecular discs that stack in order to form sheets

  • Each layer is held together by hydrogen bonds, making it strong and lightweight

  • It was long thought impossible to produce a two-dimensional polymers like this, called polyaramides

  • But special joins between each disk prevent them from twisting out-of-plane

  • Alongside protective coatings, the material could be used in construction
