| | + | The West’s lies about Israel are falling apart. by Brendan O’Neill, Spiked, May 29, 2025. |
| | + | |
| | + | So it seems Mohammed Sinwar is dead. The de facto chief of Hamas in Gaza has been ‘eliminated’, says Israel. Yesterday, in a speech marking 600 days of war between the Jewish State and that army of anti-Semites, Benjamin Netanyahu said Sinwar was indeed killed in Israel’s airstrike on the European Hospital in Khan Younis on 13 May. If this is correct, then it is a blistering defeat not only for Hamas but also for the West’s furiously Israelophobic elites. For one of their chief libels against Israel – that it bombs hospitals for sport – may have just taken one hell of a beating. |
| | + | |
| | + | Mohammed Sinwar was the younger brother of Yahya, who was leader of Hamas in Gaza from 2017 until his assassination by the Israel Defence Forces in October last year. Yahya masterminded the pogrom of 7 October 2023. Mohammed succeeded him following his assassination. Hamas really has been decapitated. The Sinwars are dead. Mohammed Deif, head of the al-Qassam Brigades, was slain in an airstrike in July last year. In that same month, Ismail Haniyeh, Hamas’s political boss, was taken out in a targeted strike on a guesthouse he was staying at in Tehran. This has hands down been the most successful anti-fascist operation of the 21st century so far. |
| | + | |
| | + | The reported killing of Mohammed Sinwar could prove to be an especially important event. It would have consequences – brilliantly dire ones – both for Hamas and for the West’s army of Israel-haters. It seems he was meeting with his fellow neo-fascists in a bunker under the courtyard of the European Hospital. That’s a hospital that was set up with a grant from the European Union and run by the UN through its local Palestine agency, UNRWA. Let that sink in: a mass murderer of Jews, the leader of a movement that carried out the worst act of anti-Semitic slaughter since the Nazis, found refuge under a facility funded by the globalist outfits that are forever wagging a finger at ‘genocidal[sic]’ Israel…. |
| | + | |
| | + | This is what has been laid bare by the reported death of Sinwar in a tunnel under a hospital: the ruthless duplicity of Hamas and the staggering gullibility of the Western commentariat. This event threatens to drag the anti-Israel activist class off that moral highground they think they occupy. For 18 months they’ve been libelling Israel as a nation in the grip of such genocidal[sic] lunacy that it desires the destruction of every life-giving facility in Gaza. They overlook, or outright deny, the reams of evidence showing that Hamas hides in hospitals, stores weapons in hospitals, uses hospitals as bases in which to torture its opponents. Now we know it even has its highest level meetings under hospitals…. |

| | + | The Gaza "starving children" meme, which only ACCELERATED since millions of meals have been distributed, is an orchestrated blood libel against Jews. |
| | + | June 1, 2025. |
| | + | The New York Times published a photo essay and article about supposedly starving Gazans, describing children there as "emaciated." |
| | + | |
| | + | According to the Gaza health ministry, the number of people who have starved to death in Gazasince October 2023 is 60. And we've already seen that every one of those sixty who have been described by name in the media had other health problems that were their main reasons for death. |
| | + | |
| | + | Let's compare the number of people who have starved to death in Gaza with other areas. |
| | + | |

| | + | |
| | + | More children die in Ethiopia and Angola every day from starvation than have died in Gaza over 20 months. |
| | + | |
| | + | Yet out of the New York Times tweets mentioning Ethiopia over the past two years, not one mentions starvation. One does point to an article that has one sentence about famine among reporting on its fighting, but there are more tweets about Ethiopian marathon runners than children starving. |
| | + | |
| | + | I don't see a single article about Angola's starving children in the past five years of tweets - even though Biden administration officials, and Joe Biden himself, visited Angola in 2024. |
| | + | |
| | + | There are four New York Times tweets that mention "famine" and "Sudan" over the past year. Compare that to 15 tweets that mention "Gaza" and "famine." |
| | + | |
| | + | There are two New York Times tweets over the past year with both "Sudan" and "starvation." For Gaza, there are ten. |
| | + | |
| | + | Far more people die in the US from starvation - 20,500 in 2022 - than in Gaza. Most of them are elderly, not children, but how many articles are about them? In fact, the only 2022 article I could find on hunger in America in the New York Times trumpeted how things were getting better, and did not mention a single death. |
| | + | |
| | + | There is no famine in Gaza. There is hunger and food insecurity to be sure, and Israel is taking this very seriously - building aid distribution centers and their associated infrastructure takes time and effort, of which there is no parallel in the countries listed above and the many others that have thousands who die every year from starvation. |
| | + | |
| | + | The new Gaza Humanitarian Foundation initiative has already distributed 4.7 million meals - yet virtually every story in the media does not mention that but repeats false Hamas claims of people being killed at those distribution sites and quote "experts" on how the GHF is not doing enough. |
| | + | |
| | + | The "starvation" and "famine" articles and posts are nothing less than a blood libel. And the uniformly negative reactions to the successful GHF rollout in mainstream media - uncritically publishing Hamas lies and downplaying the incredible success of GHF - shows that this is a orchestrated campaign to slander Israeli Jews. |

| | + | Damning IAEA Report Spells Out Past Secret Nuclear Activities in Iran. |
| | + | by Reuters and Algemeiner Staff. May 31, 2025. |
| | + | |
| | + | Iran carried out secret nuclear activities with material not declared to the U.N. nuclear watchdog at three locations that have long been under investigation, the watchdog said in a wide-ranging, confidential report to member states seen by Reuters. |
| | + | |
| | + | The findings in the “comprehensive” International Atomic Energy Agency report requested by the agency’s 35-nation Board of Governors in November pave the way for a push by the United States, Britain, France and Germany for the board to declare Iran in violation of its non-proliferation obligations. |
| | + | |
| | + | A resolution would infuriate Iran and could further complicate nuclear talks between Tehran and Washington. |
| | + | |
| | + | Using the IAEA report’s findings, the four Western powers plan to submit a draft resolution for the board to adopt at its next meeting the week of June 9, diplomats say. It would be the first time in almost 20 years Iran has formally been found in non-compliance. |

| | + | FBI probing 'targeted terror attack' in Boulder, says Kash Patel. |
| | + | By Alexandra Koch. Published June 1, 2025 5:07pm CDT FOX News. |
| | + | |
| | + | The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) is investigating a "targeted terror attack" Sunday afternoon near Pearl Street Mall in Boulder, Colorado. |
| | + | |
| | + | At about 4:30 p.m., the Boulder Police Department said it was responding to a report of an attack near the mall with reports of several victims. |
| | + | |
| | + | "We are aware of and fully investigating a targeted terror attack in Boulder, Colorado," FBI Director Kash Patel wrote in a statement on X. "Our agents and local law enforcement are on the scene already, and we will share updates as more information becomes available." |
| | + | |
| | + | Witnesses who spoke with CBS said the suspect used Molotov cocktails to attack people walking for "Run for Their Lives," a grassroot organization that facilitates global run and walk events calling for the release of Israeli hostages held by Hamas. |
| | + | |
| | + | Police initially evacuated three surrounding blocks and expanded the evacuation area just before 5:15 p.m. |
| | + | |
| | + | It is unclear how many people were injured and the extent of their injuries. |
| | + | |
| | + | Information on potential arrests has not yet been released by authorities. |
| | + | |
| | + | Boulder police did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital's request for comment. |
