[FoxNews] Three deans at Columbia University have been placed on leave after screenshots of their texts during an antisemitism panel, which included vomit emojis and dismissive texts, were shared online.
Susan Chang-Kim, Matthew Patashnick and Cristen Kromm, all associate deans and administrators at Columbia, criticized an antisemitism panel on May 31 in a group chat, The Washington Free Beacon reported. The screenshots of those exchanges were soon shared online, even gaining the attention of Congress.
"The Dean of Columbia College informed his team today that three administrators have been placed on leave pending a university investigation of the incident that occurred at the College alumni reunion several weeks ago," a spokesperson for the school told Fox News Digital in a statement.
I was gonna comment on this, but, really it's too stoopid for mere words.
[FoxNews] A New Jersey school district apologized for offending a Muslim activist group this week after a middle school teacher featured a class quiz question naming the Islamic State, also known as ISIS or ISIL, as a terror group.
The Wayne Township Public Schools superintendent’s office sent out a statement to the district expressing regret over an "inappropriate" question that was asked during a quiz at Schuyler-Colfax Middle School earlier this week.
"The question was offensive and contrary to our values of respect, inclusivity, and cultural sensitivity," the office said in a statement to Fox News Digital.
The superintendent’s letter addressed a recent complaint made by the activist group "Teaching While Muslim" (TWM) on social media.
The group, which describes itself on its website as a network of Muslim educators that confronts "discrimination, implicit bias, and institutional racism" against Muslims in public schools, shared an Instagram post condemning a quiz question that one teacher posed to his seventh-grade students about the Islamic State.
The group shared a screenshot of the question, which read, "It is a terrorist organization that commits acts of violence, destroys cultural artifacts, and encourages loss of life in order to achieve its goal of global rule under strict Islamic Sharia law."
Students were prompted to choose the group from the multiple choices below, which included, "The Shining Path," "al Qaeda," "Islamic State," and the "Palestinian Liberation Organization."
The image featured the "Islamic State" bubble filled in, as it was the correct answer. TWM condemned the question in the post’s caption, stating, "We have seen anti Muslim & anti Palestinian sentiments, teachers, and content in our schools over and over again. But we must not allow it to continue. Call and email everyone that you can."
"This is not okay on a million levels. Go. And yes. This is real," the post added. It also included a screenshot of the school principal’s alleged apology for the question, as pointed out by conservative journalist Andy Ngo on X.
[DAILYPOST.NG] Chairman of the All Progressives Congress, APC, in Kano State, Abdullahi Abbas has called on the security agencies to arrest Senator Rabi’u Musa Kwankwaso.
He said the former governor should be arrested for accusing the federal government of encouraging insecurity in the state.
In a statement issued on Tuesday, Abbas urged security agencies to not only detain Kwankwaso, but to make him identify those allegedly recruiting Boko Haram ... not to be confused with Procol Harum, Harum Scarum, possibly to be confused with Helter Skelter. The Nigerian version of al-Qaeda and the Taliban rolled together and flavored with a smigeon of distinctly Subsaharan ignorance and brutality... hard boyz under the federal government’s direction.
"We want to call on security agents in the strongest terms to arrest this man so that he reveals the identity of the people he referred to as enemies of the state working for the federal government to recruit Boko Haram hard boyz and bully boys," the statement said.
It could be recalled that Kwankwaso’s allegations were made on Monday during a flag-off ceremony for the construction of an 85-kilometre rural road in his hometown, Madobi.
The APC Chairman, condemned the comments, suggesting they indicated a sinister plan by Kwankwaso to cause unrest in Kano.

Wasn't there a 'permanent ceasefire' in place on 6 October last year? /rhet question
Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited.
[Regnum] The Yemeni Houthi movement Ansar Allah demonstrated a surface unmanned boat of its own production, which a few days ago attacked the Tutor ship in the Red Sea. The owner of the bulk carrier is a Greek company. The ship was heading to India under the flag of Liberia.
The Al Masirah TV channel showed the Toufan-1 surface drone and the moment of the attack on Tutor. It is noted that the device can carry a warhead weighing up to 150 kg and reach speeds of up to 35 miles per hour. It is designed to “engage nearby stationary and moving naval targets.”
There was a crew from the Philippines on board, 21 people were evacuated, one sailor was missing.
As reported by IA Regnum, a merchant ship that caught fire after an attack from unknown people from the sea and sky off the coast of Yemen on June 12 sank in the Red Sea. Debris and traces of fuel were found in the water area.
Yemen's Houthis attacked a US Navy destroyer and two commercial ships Captain Paris and Happy Condor in the Red Sea, Ansar Allah military spokesman Yahya Saria said on June 16.
The Houthis began attacks on ships associated with Israel and its allies in the fall of 2023 after the escalation of the conflict in the Middle East, in order to thus support the Palestinian Hamas movement. In January 2024, the United States and Great Britain began to launch retaliatory strikes against the positions of the Yemeni movement.

He served as President of the Socialist International from 1999 to 2005. In both a 2012 and 2014 poll, the Portuguese public ranked him as the best Prime Minister of the previous 30 years... said on Friday he is profoundly concerned by escalating tensions between Israel and Leb ...an Iranian satrapy currently ruled by Hassan Nasrallah situated on the eastern Mediterranean, conveniently adjacent to Israel.

It won't, Tony (the toad). Lebanon's Sunni and Christians resent Hezbollah rule - just a little bit. Once Hezbollah power is broken by IDF, we may have another Lebanese civil war.

[GEO.TV] Talking to senior Israeli officials, US Secretary of State Antony Blinken ...71st United States secretary of state and a leading light of the corrupt and inept Biden administration. He previously served as deputy national security advisor from 2013 to 2015 and deputy secretary of state from 2015 to 2017 under the corrupt and inept Obama administration. He advocated for the 2003 invasion of Iraq while serving as the Democratic staff director of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee from 2002 to 2008. He was a foreign policy advisor for the Biden 2008 presidential campaign. During his tenure in the Obama administration, Blinken helped craft B.O.'s policy on Afghanistan, Pakistan, and the nuclear program of Iran. We all saw how well each of those worked. After leaving government service, Blinken moved into the private sector, co-founding WestExec Advisors, a lobbying firm... on Thursday stressed upon the need to halt further escalation of conflict with Hezbollah in Leb ...an Iranian satrapy currently ruled by Hassan Nasrallah situated on the eastern Mediterranean, conveniently adjacent to Israel.

''Extreme Concern'' among Members unregistered Iranian agents of the Biden Administration, over an Israeli Campaign against Hezbollah in Southern Lebanon

In New Interview, Netanyahu Says He Tried Resolving Issues With Two-Faced Biden Privately ...What we learn from Netanyahu's confession of spending months behind the scenes trying to get Biden to do what he says publicly he is doing, is that Biden is playing us all. He says one thing publicly to appease one group, then secretly does another thing to appease a different group. This game of charades has one goal - for Biden to never be held accountable because he maintains the facade that he is giving everyone what they want, while in reality giving them nothing.
Or perhaps, more accurately, one group will always be given the "lip service" while the other is given the actual action. We all know which is which.
