[Newsweek] For several decades, Jewish college students have been sounding the alarm about rising antisemitism on college campuses. From "mild" episodes of graffiti to BDS activism, Torah
...the Pentateuch, also called the Five Books of Moses (Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, Deuteronomy), whether in printed book form or scrolls handwritten by trained scribes on parchment in special Hebrew calligraphy...
desecrations and egging Jewish frat houses, university campuses have become hotbeds of anti-Jewish and anti-Zionist activism both in North America and throughout the world.
Rightly recognizing campus antisemitism as a blight on higher education and on America, former President Trump signed an Executive Order in 2019 on combatting antisemitism. Unfortunately, since then, not only has the campus situation for Jewish students not improved, it has taken a dramatic turn for the worse. That this article is even appearing in Newsweak is astonishing to me.
This can be seen most acutely in a move made recently by law school students at one of America's most progressive university networks, in one of America's most progressive states. At the beginning of the current academic year, nine law school student groups at the University of California at Berkeley's School of Law amended their bylaws to ensure that nobody who supports Israel or Zionism is invited to speak. Given that the vast majority of Jews worldwide support the state of Israel, these student groups have in essence created a Jew-free zone in the hallowed halls of Berkeley Law.
The ruling would bar the law school's own dean, Erwin Chemerinsky, who identifies as a progressive Zionist—increasingly an oxymoron, if the progressives have their way.
One wonders that Dean Chemerinsky did not immediately ban such bylaws as illegal, unethical clearly not being of interest to those students.

One federal judge has just declared he will not take any interns from Yale because of free speech abuses. Hit the faculty in the pocketbook by making their environment toxic to future employment opportunities of their little Red Guards.
Early on in the COVID pandemic, Francis Boyle, Ph.D., was sure it was the result of a lab leak. He believes monkeypox is another lab creation, as it now suddenly has 30 mutations from the wild monkeypox found in Africa
President Biden recently signed the Executive Order on Advancing Biotechnology and Biomanufacturing Innovation for a Sustainable, Safe and Secure American Bioeconomy, and this order basically promises we’ll see additional manmade pandemics
Section 12, paragraph VII in Biden’s executive order states that the purpose of the order is to "develop and work and promote and implement ... dual-use research of concern, and research involving potentially pandemic and other high-consequence pathogens"
That means they intend to perform gain-of-function research on deadly pathogens, any one of which could be released to create a global pandemic when a scare event is necessary to trick populations into choosing a false sense of safety over freedom. Boyle believes there’s no doubt there will be additional pandemics, because they’re intentionally creating them
Boyle believes monkeypox was engineered and released in an effort to scare governments and populations into accepting the World Health Organization’s pandemic treaty, which would make the WHO the sole decision-maker in pandemic situations
In this interview, repeat guest Francis Boyle — whose background includes an undergraduate degree from the University of Chicago, a juris doctor (lawyer) degree from Harvard and a Ph.D. in political science — shares his views on the latest efforts to instill fear in the public, this time about monkeypox.
For decades, Boyle has advocated against the development and use of bioweapons, which COVID-19 appears to be. He called for biowarfare legislation at the Biological Weapons Convention of 1972, and drafted the Biological Weapons Anti-Terrorism Act, which was passed unanimously by both houses of Congress and signed into law by George Bush, Sr. in 1989.
Early on in the pandemic, Boyle was sure COVID-19 was the result of a lab leak. In fact, he was one of the first to bring that up. Of course, for the past two-plus years, anyone who shared the lab leak theory was vilified, discredited, censored and deplatformed. Today, we know that information was true, and even mainstream media are starting to report on it.
WHITE HOUSE ADMITS MORE PANDEMICS WILL BE CREATED
As detailed in "Executive Order Advances Biotech-Transhumanist Agenda," President Biden recently signed the "Executive Order on Advancing Biotechnology and Biomanufacturing Innovation for a Sustainable, Safe and Secure American Bioeconomy."1 As noted by Boyle, this executive order basically ensures the creation of additional bioweapons:....

Additional pandemics are to be expected because of how pandemics work. The trick will be telling the natural ones from the more hand-crafted varieties.

The lockdown / mask bubble is permanently popped. The only way businesses can be closed again is by shutting down the financial system. Which Wall Street won't allow. Sure they can close schools again as those are a gummint "enterprise" in the first place (for the most part) but the public schools have not recovered from the last lockdown theater and the next one (if it's attempted) will finish them off.
Meanwhile, what will they do to try lockdowns again? Chinese style military repression?
I seriously doubt they want to see how that would turn out.

I suspect any attempted future lockdowns will be met with gunfire.
[The Hill] Local, state and federal officials painted a dire description of Hurricane Ian’s impacts during appearances on the Sunday morning talk shows, with many of them calling for more federal assistance.
Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.), Sen. Rick Scott (R-Fla.), Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Administrator Deanne Criswell and Fort Myers, Fla., Mayor Kevin Anderson, all of whom surveyed damage from Ian, told hosts that the storm caused widespread flooding and property damage across the state as hundreds of thousands remain without power.
"I don’t think it has a comparison, not for Florida," Rubio told co-anchor Jonathan Karl on ABC’s "This Week."
"There are entire communities — Fort Myers Beach no longer exists," Rubio said. "I mean, it’ll have to be rebuilt. It’ll be something different. It was a slice of old Florida that you can’t recapture. Sanibel’s basically flattened."
Ian made landfall near Fort Myers on Wednesday afternoon as a Category 4 storm, bringing destructive winds and an extraordinary storm surge that some have estimated may have reached 18 feet at its peak.
At least 47 Floridians died from the hurricane, and the death toll has continued to climb as officials pursue the recovery effort. Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis’s (R) office said on Saturday afternoon that first responders so far have made more than 1,100 rescues.
"I know we worry a lot about the direct impacts from the storm itself if it’s making landfall, but we see so many more injuries and sometimes more fatalities after the storm because there are so many dangers out there," Criswell told "Fox News Sunday" anchor Shannon Bream.
"What I can say is people need to stay vigilant right now," Criswell continued. "Standing water brings with it all kinds of hazards."
As officials continue assessing the wreckage, Florida’s two senators said they support congressional funding to aid the recovery, which would go beyond President Biden’s approval of Florida’s emergency and major disaster declarations that freed up federal resources.
But on CNN’s "State of the Union," co-anchor Dana Bash pressed Rubio on why he didn’t vote for a relief bill in early 2013 following Hurricane Sandy, which devastated parts of New York and New Jersey.
[19Fortyfive] Throughout the two-decade U.S. war in Afghanistan, the Kremlin played a double game. President Vladimir Putin ...President-for-Life of Russia. He gets along well with other presidents for life. He is credited with bringing political stability and re-establishing something like the rule of law, which occasionally results in somebody dropping dead from poisoning by polonium or other interesting substance. Under Putin, a new group of business magnates controlling significant swathes of Russia's economy has emerged, all of whom have close personal ties to him. The old bunch, without close personal ties to Putin, are in jail or in exile or dead from poisoning by polonium or other interesting substances...
Among those whom the Taliban brought to Kabul [on August 20] were Haji Forqan, the leader of the East Turkistan Islamic Movement; Mawlawi Ibrahim, the head of the Ansarullah Jamaat of Tajikistan; Shaikh Zakir, the head of the Islamic Movement of Uzbekistan; and Abdul Haq Uighuri, the head of the Al Qaeda branch in northern Afghanistan.
did not want the United States to win for that would humiliate Russia that, as the Soviet Union, lost a brutal war in Afghanistan. He also did not want the United States to lose, for that could mean the empowerment of the Taliban ...Arabic for students... and the export of its extremism into the former Soviet states of Central Asia. This led to contradictions in which Russia leveraged its influence to expel the United States from Central Asian bases and cultivated the Taliban while simultaneously facilitating logistical routes across Russian territory to keep the American war going. As far as the Russians were concerned, the ideal scenario was for both the United States and Taliban to bleed each other dry into perpetuity.

Or at least the weapons they’ve sold to Saudi Arabia and the UAE sometimes kill civilian children instead of the adult fighters they surround, if I’m reading the article correctly.
[HODHODYEMENNEWS.NET] In 2019, the French state allowed 47 contracts to export ammunition, torpedoes, missiles, guided missiles and other kabooms, to Soddy Arabia ...a kingdom taking up the bulk of the Arabian peninsula. Its primary economic activity involves exporting oil and soaking Islamic rubes on the annual hajj pilgrimage. The country supports a large number of princes in whatcha might call princely splendor. When the oil runs out the rest of the world is going to kick sand in the Soddy national face... and the UAE, with a total value of one billion euros to Saudi Arabia and 3.5 billion euros to the United Arab Emirates, recent reports said.
In an investigation, the French newspaper, Orian 21, mentioned the involvement of major French companies in killing children in Yemen ...an area of the Arabian Peninsula sometimes mistaken for a country. It is populated by more antagonistic tribes and factions than you can keep track of... , taking advantage of the war with the support of the French state, which is the most important arms supplier after the United States to the Saudi-Emirati coalition since 2015.
According to the investigation, in 2020, these licenses increased by 40% for the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and 25% for the UAE.
The investigation confirmed that three major French companies and their contractors were involved in a conflict that killed over 13,000 civilians, namely, the Thales Group, which supplies combat aircraft and delivers ammunition, the French-British missile manufacturer MBDA, and Dassault Aviation, which maintains Mirage 2000 aircraft.
Since the start of the US-Saudi aggression’s military intervention against the Yemenis in March 2015, the French government has been trying to "deny its involvement."
In January 2019, then-Minister of the Armed Forces, Florence Parly, told major national radio stations: "We have not recently sold any weapons that could be used in the Yemeni conflict."
The minister claimed that the equipment handed over was only used "to ensure the protection of Saudi territory from Yemen’s ballistic attacks."
A few months later, on April 15, 2019, an investigation by the Disclose website under the title "Made in La Belle France" proved the opposite, based on a report issued by the Military Intelligence Directorate.
French planes, helicopters, tanks and artillery did not participate in the coalition attacks only, but these weapons were used to target civilian areas, according to the investigation.
The investigation stated that the French government has so far refused to disclose the details of the weapons that have already been delivered to each foreign country.
However, ars longa, vita brevis... its public reports submitted each year to Parliament highlight the importance of trade with two of the largest arms importers in the Middle East, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates, which are respectively the third and fifth largest customers of French arms.
These reports confirm that between 2015 and 2021, La Belle France delivered military equipment, munitions, and maintenance services about 9 billion euros to these two countries, which lead the aggression against the Yemenis.
Saudi Arabia, backed by the United States and regional allies, launched the war on Yemen in March 2015, with the claim of bringing the government of former Yemeni president Abd Rabbuh Mansour Hadi back to power.
The war has left hundreds of thousands of Yemenis dead, and displaced millions more. It has also destroyed Yemen’s infrastructure and spread famine and infectious diseases there.

A dictatorship does not have to have one identifiable person at the top. OZ and the Kiwis did a fine job of running a totalitarian police state by committee during the COVID farce.

Dick Morris was an adviser to Bill Clinton when he was Arkansas governor and later as president in 1992, but now advises Donald Trump
He said both Bill and Hillary's recent comments about migrants are a sign that she's gearing up to run as Democrats' 'moderate' option in 2024 Given her poor health, another presidential campaign might well kill her. On the other hand, a campaign from her basement, as Joe Biden didn in 2020, would certainly kill her prospects.
Morris predicted Clinton would announce a third White House bid if Democrats faced huge midterm losses in the Senate and House of Representatives Oh please, oh please, oh please!

She mostly likely wants to make the short list for Biden Harris replacement parts. Other than this last Biden effort, campaigning is a grueling grind that she was not able to truly complete last time. Based on photographic evidence she is not doing a lot of cardio currently. Here presidential hopes are now limited to the express checkout only. I think she could keep up Biden's pace of vacationing every other weekend and no interviews. She won't be riding bikes though; nobody wants to see that.

She'd make at least a semi-predictable than Biden is now. Biden is all over the WH lawn on issues. But the DC "accidental" death count would also be much higher. Any bets on how long Bill's G-Friends would last?

Seems you cannot ever get rid of these peoples lack of shame. They have done Nothing to warrant any Merit at all, and they have No Virtue.
[TheAtlantic] In Iran, Raw Fury Is in the Air. If the demonstrations have one theme, it seems to be sheer hatred of the regime.
“After Mahsa, everything is hanging by a hair.”
Those words, spray-painted in red on a Tehran wall last week, sum up the atmosphere of rage and defiance that has consumed Iran since the death of Mahsa Amini, a young woman who died in police custody in mid-September after being arrested for failing to properly veil her hair.
Rallies have turned progressively more violent. Videos captured on cellphone cameras show nightly scenes of terrifying bravery: women tearing off their veils and screaming at advancing lines of riot police. Dozens of protesters have been killed, and in some cities they have struck back, burning down police stations and killing the paramilitary thugs sent to suppress them.
The Islamic Republic is not about to fall. But something is different this time. In 2009, I reported on the protests that shook the country after the disputed reelection of President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. Back then, reform was the ostensible goal. Demonstrators flooded the streets in support of a presidential candidate—Mir-Hossein Mousavi—who was himself a product of the Iranian system.
This time, raw fury is in the air, a sense that protesters are girding themselves for war rather than liberation. Their chants suggest a new spirit of intransigence: “We will fight, we will die, we will get Iran back.” The protesters don’t seem to have illusions about their country blooming into democracy; this is not an Iranian spring. They are not inclined toward politics as a vehicle for change, and that in itself is a troubling sign. If the protests have one theme, it seems to be sheer hatred of the Iranian regime.
The protests may be remembered as a defining experience for Iran’s Generation Z. One Iranian journalist friend told me he saw teenagers fighting armed Basij militias using methods learned from Clash of Clans, a popular video game. (The government blocked the game’s website soon afterward, he said.) “When you talk to middle-aged people, they tell you that these protests have changed their view of the generation born after 2000,” the journalist said. “They thought these kids were just into video games and music, but they have proved their bravery, their willingness to fight for liberty.”
At the same time, the government’s own methods in recent days—hiding police in ambulances to infiltrate protest crowds—have deepened the public’s mistrust, he said. (The journalist asked not to be identified for fear of reprisal, citing the recent arrests of those who reported on the protests.)
Although Amini’s death provided the spark for these protests, this revolt rises from a broader well of anger among a younger generation of Iranians who feel that they have nothing left to lose. By the time Amini walked out of a subway station in Tehran on September 15, the stage was already set for a confrontation.
