Terror In Tel Aviv
You don’t need a calendar to know that it is Ramadan. Faithful jihadists are demonstrating their devotion all over the world as they attack and kill infidels.
Yesterday in Israel, two Palestinians targeted a popular open-air shopping district in Tel Aviv for a disgusting attack. After ordering drinks at a restaurant, the terrorists stood up and started shooting at pointblank range. Four people were killed and 16 were wounded.
Hamas leaders immediately praised the attack as “heroic,” proudly claimed the terrorists as members of the Islamist group and vowed “more surprises.”
Let me remind you that Hamas was elected to govern Gaza. They are the people Israel is supposed to negotiate with according to Obama, the French and most major media, who insist that the Palestinians want to live in peace with Israel. [Sarcasm alert!]
It was reported that the terrorists disguised themselves as Orthodox Jews. If true, it is a good thing they were caught and exposed.
Had they escaped, it is more than likely that the left-wing media would have immediately jumped to the conclusion that right-wing Orthodox Jews had carried out a horrible hate crime. After all, these are the same progressives who go out of their way to avoid linking the vast majority of terrorist attacks to Islam.
By the way, the terrorists were captured alive. Because Israel is a nation committed to Western values, they will be afforded due process of law. They will be tried and, presumably, imprisoned.
At that point, they will become eligible for support from the Palestinian Authority (PA). Yes, you read that right. The Palestinian Authority pays terrorists who attack “the occupation” and it also pays the families if the terrorists are killed. One study found that “Terrorists in prison receive higher average salary than PA civil servants and military personnel.”
And you are paying for it. Yes, you read that right, too. Your tax dollars are going to the Palestinian Authority.
So ponder the insanity of the world we live in where the men who just killed four Israelis in Tel Aviv are getting subsidies from you and the families of dead terrorists are getting subsidies from our families because they raised such good jihadists.
Nuclear Deal Is Funding Iran’s Military
Once again, critics of the Iranian nuclear deal have been proven right. We warned that sanctions relief under the deal would end up funding Iran’s military and terrorist activities. Now we have proof.
Iran’s defense budget nearly doubled this year. It went up a shocking 90%, and unfortunately, American taxpayers also contributed to that.
In January the Obama Administration released $1.7 billion to Iran’s Central Bank. Middle East expert Saeed Ghasseminejad at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies tells Bloomberg that the regime in Tehran ordered the Central Bank to move that $1.7 billion to Iran’s defense budget.
He Said What?!
Barack Obama recently taped an appearance on Jimmy Fallon’s late-night show. According to released excerpts, Obama said the presidency “is a serious job. You know, this is not reality TV.”
But this is coming from the first reality TV show president, who likes to “slow jam the news.”
There has been no TV show, no media venue too small or too absurd for Obama to appear on and in the process diminish the presidency. Remember the time Obama went on YouTube to be interviewed by a woman who eats Fruit Loops in a bathtub?
Remember his selfie-stick video? And when our celebrity/media obsessed president isn’t doing TV shows, he’s on the golf course!
We just had the worst jobs report in at least five years. Perhaps the president could stop doing interviews on late-night shows and pay more attention to his serious job.
