This is in addition to earlier reports about “journalists” being embedded with the jihadis.

As I have pointed out many times, Reuters and AP are far-Left propaganda outfits, not news sources.

“Reuters, AP journalists watched Hamas lynchings, kidnappings and urged civilians to join,” by Vered Weiss, World Israel News, January 8, 2024 (thanks to the Geller Report):

Journalists working for Reuters, AP and other media outlets were present with Hamas terrorists at the October 7th massacres and encouraged others to take part, according to Honest Reporting.

Ashraf Amra, who had been working for Reuters and AP in a video is seen viewing and enjoying another photojournalist’s footage of an IDF soldier being lynched.

The two journalists were recalling how they infiltrated Israel’s border and were laughing as they described how the soldier’s body was mutilated and brutalized even after he was dead.

Ashraf Amra has been greeted and kissed twice by Hamas terror leader Ismail Haniyeh, and in addition to working for Reuters and AP, he also is a journalist for APA Images and Turkish news agency Anadolu.

Abu Mostafa, who also works for Reuters, discussed with relish witnessing atrocities and kidnappings in Sderot and other places.

Mostafa said he had been there since the beginning of the massacre and from a safe room watched Hamas terrorists taking away Israelis who were hiding.

One photojournalist had a message for others, “Advice, whoever can go – go. It is a one-time event that will not happen again.”

Another said in agreement, “Really, it will not repeat itself.”

The first journalist bragged about watching 50 women being taken captive.

In the video, he continued encouraging Gazans to take part and said they could go 10 kilometers or more into Israel.

A photograph from one of the photojournalists was voted “Picture of the Year” by Reuters….

Will she now reconsider her support of Old Joe Biden and abetting of his corruption, in light of the fact that it was the Biden regime’s treason and fecklessness that enabled the Oct. 7 jihad massacre to happen? Don’t hold your breath.

“Major Democratic donor, Hunter Biden art buyer’s 3-year-old American relative kidnapped by Hamas,” by Madeleine Hubbard, Just The News, November 24, 2023:

Elizabeth Hirsh Naftali, a major Democratic donor well connected to the Biden administration, has been bringing attention to the hostages after her 3-year-old great-niece, a U.S. citizen, was orphaned and taken captive by Hamas terrorists on Oct. 7.

Hirsh Naftali is known for buying Hunter Biden’s artwork, visiting the White House more than a dozen times, and being appointed by President Joe Biden to a historical preservation commission.

Since her great-niece, Abigail Mor Idan was kidnapped from the kibbutz of Kfar Aza, Hirsch Nafti has become a vocal advocate for the hostages. Abigail is reportedly one of the approximately 50 hostages slated to be released starting Friday, according to The Times of Israel.

Hirsh Naftali expressed cautious optimism during a CNN interview Tuesday before the hostage deal solidified.

“I’m not a politician, I’m not a diplomat. I will believe it when I see them walk out,” she said. “Until then we just have to keep everything in check because it’s just too much of an emotional rollercoaster.”…

Open support of Hamas jihadis’ inhumanity and bloodlust is all the rage on the Left today. Will the University of Pennsylvania fire Dr. Alghamdi? No, they’ll probably give him an award and a raise, if they’re consistent with what they’ve taught for decades.

Of course, Hamas really is a terrorist group. It operates according to a book it considers to be the word of the supreme being, and that tells them this: “Make ready for them all that you can of force and of warhorses, so that by them you may strike terror in the enemy of Allah and your enemy…” (Qur’an 8:60)

CAIR’s National Deputy Director accuses Israel of ‘racism,’ ‘kidnapping,’ ‘wantonly killing Palestinian civilians’

Among the most despicable tweets on X recently comes from Edward Ahmed Mitchell, a Muslim civil rights attorney and National Deputy Director of the Hamas-linked Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR). He begins his tirade with “Bismillah,” that is, “in the name of Allah.” From there, he proceeds to savage Israel, spewing lies:

The IDF has never conducted operations that are legitimately comparable or bear any resemblance to the actions of Hamas savages, which have been described in recent days as worse than those of ISIS. Israel habitually warns Palestinians to leave an area before launching defensive maneuvers. The IDF is careful not to target civilians, including infants and the elderly.

Edward Ahmed Mitchell is a brazen liar. He was a featured antisemite of the week on the website Stop Antisemitism. In his tweet, Mitchell even twists the case of Christian Palestinian journalist Shireen Abu Akleh, who was killed in crossfire between jihadists and IDF, in order to smear Israel.

The barbarism-supporting thug Edward Ahmed Mitchell enjoys life in America while justifying and potentially even encouraging jihad savagery. CAIR was found to be affiliated with Hamas and was designated an unindicted coconspirator in the Holy Land Foundation Trial, the largest terrorism funding trial in American history. So Mitchell’s lies, though repulsive, should come as no surprise.

 

Hamas murdered around 40 babies and young children in one Israeli community, beheaded at least some of the babies, AND ISRAELI SOLDIERS

“When you meet the unbelievers, strike the necks…” (Qur’an 47:4)

“‘It smells of death here’: Surveying the atrocities committed by Hamas in Kfar Aza,” by Nicole Zedek, i24News, October 10, 2023:

Israeli soldiers encounter unimaginable horrors are they remove the bodies of dozens of victims, including about 40 babies — some with their heads chopped off

Press were invited on Tuesday to survey the scene of devastation in Kfar Aza, the community massacred by Hamas terrorist infiltrators, as the IDF continues to remove bodies of victims from the homes where they were murdered.

For the first time the Israeli army let media channels into one of the massacred communities, in this case Kibbutz Kfar Aza, where plumes of smoke can be seen rising in the Gaza Strip, which lies less than a quarter of a mile away.

The community’s cars, parked outside, were completely torched. And it was just a small part of the destruction, with no exact number yet of how many people were murdered, as bodies are still being collected and removed from the homes.

The smell of death — that’s what’s left of a once vibrant community. Now, the foreign press was invited to witness the inhumane crimes, much like the Allies had done after they had won the second World War and liberated the Holocaust concentration camps. Upwards of 70 armed terrorists invaded the community, their bodies are still lying on the ground for the whole world to see the cruelty these Hamas terrorists committed.

“It’s not a war, it’s not a battlefield. You see the babies, the mother, the father, in their bedrooms, in their protection rooms, and how the terrorists killed them,” IDF Major General Itai Veruv first described the scene. “It’s a massacre.”

Being on the border, Kfar Aza is still active, with IDF soldiers operating in the area, on alert for any potentially remaining terrorists. In addition, rockets continue to fly overhead, and the boom of mortars, for which there is no alert siren. Artillery can be heard in the background on the border fence. Even the terrorists’ vehicles are still here, and possibly booby-trapped with grenades or explosives.

But first, the army unit is dedicating itself to removing the bodies of the Israeli civilians. We can see them covered in sheets being carried out of their own homes where they were murdered. The IDF does not have a definitive number of victims yet.

Many soldiers were called up for reserve service and could be seen actively consoling each other after what they had to witness. They arrived expecting the worst, but the scenes are beyond anything that one could imagine. Some soldiers say they found babies with their heads cut off, entire families gunned down in their beds. About 40 babies and young children have been taken out on gurneys — so far….

‘Worse than ISIS’: Hamas jihadis behead Israeli soldiers in ‘sickening footage’

Few outlets are revealing the truth about the similarities in modus operandi between Hamas and the Islamic State as Israel begins its defensive war against Hamas. An article in the Express, Worse than ISIS’: Hamas terrorists ‘behead Israeli soldiers’ in sickening footage, states:

Hamas has released footage of them beheading captured soldiers. We will not share it, but the world needs to know their depravity exceeds that of ISIS. And we have been telling you all for years.

The latest figures are that Hamas has murdered 900 people, injured over 2,600, and taken hostage at least 100 civilians and soldiers. The lack of news articles examining the similarities between Hamas and ISIS may be due at least in part to the fact that ISIS is established globally as a savage jihad group, while many have been indoctrinated with the wrongheaded view that support for Hamas is part of a Palestinian “resistance” against injustice. Another reality is the serious fact that far too many organizations (and their offshoots) that are now operating in Western countries are affiliated with Hamas. The Investigative Project provides a list of the names and groups of these affiliated groups, most of which were named unindicted co-conspirators in the largest terrorist funding trial in the history of the United States, the Holy Land Foundation trial. See HERE.

Jihad Watch has also been warning for years that striking at the neck is a Qur’anic command, obeyed by jihadists everywhere, so much that it has become their signature deed…

Now when you meet the unbelievers, strike the necks until, when you have subdued them, then make fast the bonds, and afterward either generosity or ransom until the war lays down its burdens. That, and if Allah willed, he could have punished them, but so that he may test some of you by means of others. And those who have been killed in the way of Allah, he does not make their actions useless. — Qur’an 47:4

When your Lord inspired the angels, I am with you. So make those who believe stand firm. I will cast terror into the hearts of those who disbelieve. Then strike the necks and strike their fingertips. — Qur’an 8:12

The Express also reported:

In a statement, the Israel Defence Forces said: “Hamas has released footage of them beheading captured soldiers. We will not share it, but the world needs to know their depravity exceeds that of ISIS. And we have been telling you all for years.

“May the precious souls of our men and women be in our hearts forever.”

Israel’s President Herzog also stated that “Hamas has imported, adopted, and replicated the savagery of ISIS.

Defenders of and apologists for the violent Palestinian jihad (aka the “resistance”) have now infiltrated into the highest levels in America, Canada, and other Western nations. They have risen up by the thousands in anti-semitic, hateful protests full of incitement to violence. This incitement is increasing as Israel defends itself. All over the West, the people as well as the leaders have fallen short in understanding the danger in their midst, as Islam has been portrayed as a “religion of peace” since 9/11. (Once again, this is not to say that all Muslims ascribe to Sharia dictates on jihad, but a problematic and significant number do.) Although crackdowns upon speech or actions that offend Islam have become commonplace in Western societies, intimidating and hateful protests against the world’s lone, tiny Jewish state are tolerated and allowed to continue.

Aside from the obvious threats facing Israel, the West continues to be under the same ongoing jihad threat. That threat has been growing due to reckless immigration policies, as globalist leaders have welcomed in multitudes of aggressive, anti-semitic, and anti-Western Palestinian sympathizers. They have also enabled infiltration by a range of jihadists everywhere. Many Leftists see no problem with all this. Fox News reported about Donald Trump’s renewed warning to Biden about America being “invaded,” and “terrorists”  being “already inside the US.” It is only a matter of time before we see severe consequences of this.

Hamas threatens to execute Israeli hostages after Gaza bombing

Gaza has been bombarded with airstrikes for a second night in a row as an act of retaliation on Hamas. The militant group has threatened it will start executing hostages if the attacks on civilians don't cease. At least 900 people have died in Israel and more than 680 Palestinians have been killed. In local news, a police task force has been set up to identify pro-Palestinian protesters who burned an Israeli flag and lit up flares during a rally at the Opera House.

WASHINGTON STATE Democrats Create a Transgender Child Kidnapping Network

WASHINGTON STATE: Anti-Family Bill SB 5599 & Gender Under Siege

New Bill 5599 RESTRICTS Parents' Rights as it Removes Parental Consent to kids' gender-affirming care

The most vulnerable children of Washington state are now in more danger because of State Senate Bill 5599. While Fox News described it as "kidnapping" on 5/8/2023, that is not accurate. Rather, children who run away to approved shelters may legally be considered "abused" and referred to horrific and irreversible surgery providers without informing the child's parents. This was announced with twisted proclamations of "love" from Washington officials. Dr. Jesse Campbell walks us through the actual wording of the bill, viewing its cross-references firsthand. Parents, you are responsible for your children. If you abdicate this to the bowels of the internet, the state of Washington is ironically proud to step between you and your child to do the unthinkable if your child runs away. Step in now and speak with your child. Join a solid, Bible-teaching church. Disciple your child, or the transgender community, fraught with predators, will.

Political child predators take custody of children from their parents.

“Trans Minors Protected from Parents Under Washington Law,” the Associated Press headlined its story. A short time later the story had officially been “withdrawn” by the AP.

Withdrawing the story, however, didn’t change the facts.

Washington Senate Bill 5599, titled, “Supporting youth and young adults seeking protected health care services”, allows shelters where a child runaway shows up not to notify his or her parents. While normally, unless a child were suffering “abuse or neglect”, the shelter would be obligated to inform the parents between 24 and 72 hours after arrival. The new law adds minors getting abortions and transgender treatments as “compelling reasons” not to notify their parents.

Once a child is listed as transgender, the parents are automatically treated as abusers.

Instead of contacting a child’s parents, the system will contact Washington’s child services department essentially claiming automatic state custody of any children classified as transgender. This measure follows on the heels of school policies where children are encouraged to imagine they’re another gender without telling their parents and shelter systems in the state that have refused to disclose information about minors to their families.

Laws like this not only violate family bonds for political reasons on the level of some of the worst totalitarian regimes in the world, they’re a bonanza to actual abusers who use social media to lure teenagers into running away. Senate Bill 5599 makes Washington a magnet for teenage runaways and sexual predators. That’s not surprising in a state where Seattle Mayor Ed Murray only resigned after being accused of sexually abusing five teenage boys.

Equal Rights Washington, one of the pressure groups behind the transgender child kidnapping bill, had been one of Murray’s biggest backers. After five men came forward to accuse the gay rights advocate of sexually assaulting them, Monisha Harrell, ERW’s chairwoman and a niece of the current Seattle mayor, expressed “sadness for the loss of a leader who has put himself on the front line of many of these causes that have been so important to us.”

There was no mention of any sadness for the young men her ally had assaulted, including Delvonn Heckard, a black man who had become addicted to drugs as a teenager when Murray was exploiting him, who was found dead a year after Murray’s resignation.

Even with five accusers, the ERW’s Monisha suggested that Murray could win a write-in election because, “there might be people who will support him because they feel he was wronged, and that it will feel like righting a wrong.”

Equal Rights Washington and its transgender child kidnapping bill are not concerned with protecting children, just enabling their abusers, the way they did with Ed Murray.

The correct name for Senate Bill 5599 ought to be the Ed Murray Child Abduction Bill because that is the primary function that it serves. Washington State was not only the stalking ground for Ed Murray but it’s also been the epicenter of some of the most aggressive child kidnapping measures.

Children can begin receiving “gender-affirming care” and admit themselves without parental consent in Washington beginning at the age of 13. Health insurance companies are not allowed to tell their parents about any medical procedures involving “gender-affirming care”.

The same “shelter” program being empowered by the Ed Murray Child Abduction Bill already allows thirteen-year-olds with stable loving families to check themselves into shelters.

And those parents who try to fight the mutilation of their children face serious consequences.

One parent was told that if he did not consent to transgender child mutilation, would lose custody of his son to the state, took him, and fled Washington. And he was far from the only one.

Through this bill and a previous one from last year, Washington’s social services system is effectively able to take custody and make medical decisions on behalf of a minor without parental consent. The system is able to bypass even the facade of custody hearings and accusations of abuse aimed at the parents of children that attract political predators.

Gov. Inslee and Democrats have claimed that this is about dealing with a homeless crisis, but Washington Senate Bill 5599 specifically classifies Democrat policy priorities, abortion and transgender sexual mutilation, as the “protected health care services” they’re exempting.

Washington’s transgender child kidnapping bill follows in the footsteps of California’s Senate Bill 107. SB 107 was promoted by State Senator Scott Weiner, who had previously made national headlines for empowering judges to keep those guilty of “illegal sexual relations between a teenager age 15 and over and a partner within 10 years of age” off the sex offender registry.

None of this sexually abusive behavior is too surprising in a state that still venerates Harvey Milk: a California Democrat who supported Jim Jones and lured teenage runaways.

As the Alliance Defending Freedom argued, “SB 107 violates parental rights protected by the U.S. Constitution by giving California courts the ability to strip parents who reside in another state of their parental rights if their child travels to California to obtain gender transition procedures—including harmful puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones, and irreversible surgeries. It also denies parents the right to have access to their child’s medical information.”

Despite SB 107’s unconstitutional nature, 19 other Democrat states have introduced similar “transgender sanctuary bills”. Similar to sanctuary states for illegal aliens, child grooming and mutilation advocates hope to turn blue states into areas outside federal law. Much as sanctuary states for illegal aliens have led to a sizable death toll from crime, mass shootings, and drunk driving, turning blue states into magnets for child grooming and sexual mutilation will cost lives.

While some trade conspiracy theories about underground networks, Democrats, backed by major donors, are putting into place a child kidnapping network encompassing half the country.

The network operates under the guise of “protecting” children from their parents. But that is how child groomers always operate. They claim that they understand teenagers when their parents don’t. They insinuate themselves into their confidence, win their trust, and then manipulate them.

But what had been the practice of a handful of deviant men is now the government policy of entire states implemented by massive social services networks, clinicians, and therapists.

As the rates of teenage depression and suicides increase, the Democrats are rushing to take advantage of troubled teens, manipulating them into joining its political cults and servicing its top political figures. Now that the politicians and bureaucrats are promising to protect children from their parents, who will protect the children, parents, and families from the Democrats?
