Communications Minister Ayoub Kara vowed on Thursday to halt Qatari-funded international news channel Al Jazeera’s local operations despite the obstacles.
“I will close Al Jazeera, period, no matter what it costs me,” Kara told The Jerusalem Post. “If they want to open their mouths, they can do it at the dentist. They should stop taking advantage of freedom of expression in Israel.” Continue reading “Israeli Communications Minister: I Will Shut Down Al-Jazeera, Period”

NEW YORK – About a week after Hurricane Harvey flooded his home, Andran Penn – a Christian resident of Houston – finally returned to his premises only to find total devastation, or so he thought. To his surprise, one thing remained untouched by the water: his library of Jewish texts.
The books, which included interlinear Hebrew and English study texts as well as Bibles, were found completely dry by a ZAKA search and rescue team, which has been participating in clean-up efforts in Texas, serving the Jewish and Christian communities hit hardest by the storm.

In his first show back after a two-week vacation, popular comedian Stephen Colbert stirred controversy by giving not one, not two, but three Nazi salutes.
The sketch focused on mocking recently-departed White House Chief Strategist Stephen Bannon, who will soon be making his first post-White House appearance in an interview on CBS’s 60 Minutes. Colbert showed previews of that interview, including a clip in which Bannon defended President Donald Trump for his comments after the Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville.

At 15, Elias Rosenfeld became a “Dreamer.”
At the time, the Venezuela native was attending Dr. Michael M. Krop Senior High School in Miami, where he had lived since he was 6 years old, when his Jewish family moved to South Florida from Caracas. His mother was a media executive and they traveled to the United States on an L1 visa, which allows specialized, managerial employees to work for the US office of a parent company.

Whoopi Goldberg had a stern message for Mike Huckabee on Thursday after the former Arkansas governor appeared on Fox Business and described “The View” hosts as “irrational,” less than a day after he was interviewed on the program.
“Stop calling people names,” Goldberg said straight into the camera. “We didn’t do that with you. … We do know you, and we respected your daughter. And I’m kinda pissed off about this, Mike. Because it’s not right.” Continue reading “Whoopi Goldberg Is Officially ‘Pissed Off’ At Mike Huckabee”

WASHINGTON (Reuters) – The U.S. Senate Appropriations Committee passed a spending bill on Thursday evening that includes $10 million to help fund the United Nations’ climate change body that oversees the Paris Climate Agreement, despite President Donald Trump’s decision to stop funding it.
The 30-member Senate panel, which allocates federal funds to various government agencies and organizations, approved a $51 billion spending bill for the State Department and foreign operations, which included an amendment to continue funding the U.N. Framework Convention on Climate Change as well as the scientific body the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change.

On the day that California officials implemented a controversial law that allows undocumented residents to obtain driver’s licenses, DMV offices throughout the state were packed with immigrants looking to take advantage of the opportunity.
Two years after the implementation of AB 60 on Jan. 1, 2015, an estimated 806,000 undocumented residents have received driver’s licenses, according to Department of Motor Vehicles statistics this month. About 14,000 of these licenses were issued in November alone, the DMV said. Continue reading “DMV licensed 800,000 undocumented immigrants under 2-year-old law”

Glennville, GA — Richard Tavera was a 24-year-old mentally ill man suffering from bipolar disorder. When his mental illness got out of control, he decided to try and kill himself. He did this in his jail cell as four officers watched the life slowly leave his body.
Guards at Smith state prison did nothing for nearly 8 minutes as Tavera fashioned a noose with his bed sheets and tied to a sprinkler above the cell. Videos obtained by the Atlanta Journal-Constitution show this disturbing event unfold. They also show that Tavera’s death was entirely preventable.

It’s a subject I particularly don’t like to talk about, but we must understand that our older population is at a huge risk, they either don’t want to leave the dangers because of all the hassles, they’re just to weak, or they just don’t give a damn and are ready for whatever happens to them. Many have nobody, they’re on their own.
They might not die now, but the stress will eventually kill them.
21% of Floridians are made up of these people, Houston close to the same if not more. I am a here to tell you, the magnitude of the deaths these (geo-engineered) hurricanes are going to be responsible for are going to be staggering, we will never hear the real numbers. Think of the hurricanes as a huge set of brooms, doing nothing more than sweeping away many of the burdens and hassles the establishment no longer has to deal with, while at the same time infusing whatever insanity these treasonous monsters are about to inflict on us.

Anatoliy Kuzmin held out his daughter’s blue U.S. passport over a red Russian one and snapped a photo from a Florida beach.
“Woohoo! Got dual citizenship for my daughter!” he wrote on Instagram.
American citizenship for the newborn girl was the goal of Kuzmin and his Instagram-celebrity wife, who sought the help of birth-tourism services in Florida for the arrival of their first child. They are among the estimated hundreds of Russian parents who flock to the U.S. annually for warm weather, excellent medical care, and, more importantly, birthright American citizenship.

We are becoming “long in the tooth,” so to speak, regarding the current world events. Some of this article will mention points previously covered, but only in relation to the “big picture” of E&E…that’s the acronym for “Escape & Evasion.” In the end, no matter how secure your fortress, be it Castle Greyskull or Mount Olympus II, you may have to leave it for one reason or another: fire, radiation, severe flood/hurricane, or the IHM (Incredible Human Mob).
The first thing you need to do is establish your immediate location and route to where you intend to flee if you must. There are several different types of maps that you should consult, if not own outright, and they are as follows: Continue reading “Bugging Out: Preparing Multiple Escape Routes and Vehicles for a Major Emergency”

Politicians in the hurricane-hit city of Houston are warning against donating to the American Red Cross.
Houston City councillor Dave Martin told a district meeting: “I beg you not to send them a penny” and repeatedly branded the Congress-endorsed charity “the red loss”.
Speaking two weeks after the devastating hurricane which left at least 70 people dead, Mr Martin claimed that local government had done most of the difficult work in the aftermath of the disaster as well as providing the majority of resources.

If you have a warrant out for your arrest and manage to safely make it to a Florida hurricane shelter while Hurricane Irma barrels down on the state, a Florida sheriff will make sure you’re escorted right to jail.
As Hurricane Irma approaches his state, a county sheriff in Florida said that law enforcement authorities would check the identities of people who turn up at shelters and take to jail anyone found to have an active arrest warrant. On Wednesday, Grady Judd, the sheriff in Polk County, announced the maneuver in a series of messages on Twitter.

There are a lot of people stranded in the areas that are likely to be the hardest hit by Hurricane Irma. While it’s easy to say, “Oh, they should have left earlier” and run through the gamut of blame, the fact remains that there are all sorts of reasons that leaving didn’t work out.
Gas stations have run dry, which means that people can’t drive their cars to leave. Roads are at a standstill as people all try to leave at once in the biggest mass exodus in American history. Amtrak tickets are sold out. Plane tickets are outrageously expensive, in some cases more than three thousand dollars apiece. (However, American Airlines and JetBlue have capped their tickets out of Florida at $99, a service to keep in mind in the future if you plan to fly somewhere.)
