Allahu Akbar
When will the M***i and head of the prestigious Al-Azhar University in Cairo finally issue a fatwa against the pseudo-Muslims of Hamas and their supporters? These murderers are a disgrace to the Ummah and thus to all believers.
They are not human beings, but creatures of the devil. They recite suras from the holy book without having read it, or rather, they do not understand the words conveyed to the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace. The Christian and Jewish brothers, also believers in a religion of the book called Ahl al-Kitāb, are under the protection of the Quran. The worshippers of Maryam (the only woman mentioned in the holy book), the mother of Isa ibn Maryam (Jesus), are under the protection of Allah. All believe in Mūsā (Moses) and Ibrahim, but this is unknown to the devil's creatures, or they deny the words of Allah.
"And remember when Moses said to his people: 'O people, remember the favor of Allah upon you, when He raised up among you prophets, and appointed you kings, and gave you what He did not give to anyone from all the world. O people, enter the sacred land which Allah has appointed for you, and do not turn back, lest you return as losers.'" (Surah 5:20 and 21).
"And We gave as an inheritance to the people who were considered weak the east and the west of the earth which We had blessed, and the good word of your Lord was fulfilled for the Children of Israel because they were patient. And We destroyed the works and the buildings of Pharaoh and his people" (Sura 7:137).
“And We said to the Children of Israel after its destruction: ‘Inhabit the land, and when the promise of the Hereafter comes, we will bring you here in a multitude’” (Surah 17:104).
Allahu Akbar, whoever calls upon the saying of the devil's followers - "From the river to the sea" - for the expulsion and murder of Jewish people in Judea and Samaria is committing a denial of the words of Allah conveyed by the Prophet, may he be blessed.
Every believer is called and obliged to act against the devil's creatures until they are wiped out of the earth and returned to hell, from which they crawled like maggots from the flesh.

BREAKING: J.D. Vance's hometown newspaper incinerates him as a "lapdog vice president" in a scathing new editorial that has MAGA world howling with rage.

This one has gotta hurt....

"J.D. Vance has really done Ohio proud these last few weeks, hasn’t he?" begins Marilou Johanek's piece in the Ohio Capital Journal.

"The lapdog vice-president, with evidently a lot of time on his hands, has managed to be firmly rebuked by Pope Francis, denounced by outraged NATO allies and widely ridiculed for his bizarre ‘masculinity’ rant at a weekend MAGAfest just a month into his tenure," she wrote. "Way to create a buzz/acute embarrassment back home!"

In one particularly scathing section of the piece, Johanek took Vance to task for claiming to be a committed Catholic while constantly espousing hateful views that run contrary to everything that Jesus Christ taught—

"'Devout Catholic' convert Vance went all glib and combative on compassion and care for the 'least of these' because they included Brown and Black mothers and fathers and children fleeing horrendous homelands for hope," she wrote.

"But upholding the dignity of every human being (native-born or not) as a core tenet of Christianity clashes with the core MAGA mission to degrade, shackle and ship terrified families back to the foreign hellscapes they fled. Vance threw nasty and mean into the mix to look tough on dehumanized 'illegals' and scorn mercy. He is a dutiful, if not decent, Trump toady," she continued.

Johanek also slammed the former senator from Ohio for his "nondescript role as an appendage in the Trump-Musk administration," an apropos description given the manner in which Vance has been playing second fiddle to MAGA oligarch Elon Musk.

"The last thing the world needs now is a U.S. vice-president trashing eighty years of foreign policy with America’s closest and most enduring friends,” Johanek went on on, ripping the disastrous foreign policy that Trump, Musk, and Vance have been forging.

And it is disastrous. In an incredibly short amount of time they have managed to alienate our European allies, justify Russia's brutal invasion of Ukraine, and irreparably shred the United States' credibility on the world stage.

Our adversaries never dreamed of an American president as lockstep with their interests as Donald Trump.

Johanek ripped Vance as a "shameless election denier" who is working for an "authoritarian regime lawlessly dismantling a democratic republic."

"He morphed from Never-Trumper to groveling suck-up for unimagined power, but he can’t quite pull it off as a poser with a makeover beard spewing stupid and offensive and strange," she wrote.

"Vance has been doing us proud by attacking friends, embracing enemies, insulting humanitarians, drawing papal ire, and pontificating laughably on what makes a man a man," she continued.

"Seriously, what is wrong with J.D.?" she concluded.

The answer? A hell of a lot.

The town of Liepāja in Latvia lies only six miles from the beach, and of course, the townspeople loved to flock there in the summertime. It was a familiar scene of laughter and play and the screech of seagulls. But on these days, it became something else entirely. On these days, the 15th through the 17th of December, 1941, it became the setting for a massacre.

The German SS and their Latvian collaborators murdered 2,749 Jews, most of them women and children, on the dunes and shoved their bodies into hastily-dug pits. Minutes before their deaths, they were forced to undress in front of their killers and stand half-naked on the freezing beach on the orders of SS-Scharführer Karl Strott and SS Police Chief Fritz Dietrich.

This atrocity, like many others, might have remained secret except for one small detail. Karl Strott used a whip to herd his victims together on the beach, and then took their pictures - pictures of little boys and girls, of mothers and babies, of grandmothers huddled together under the unfeeling gazes of their murderers. Notice in the photograph the little girl on the left hiding herself behind her mother. What on earth must this unknown little girl have seen and heard and felt?

Some months later, a local electrician, turned Jewish slave laborer, was repairing wiring in the German headquarters, saw the photos, and recognized his Jewish neighbors. Incredibly he smuggled four rolls of film out of the office, made copies of them, and returned the originals with the SS none the wiser.

When the war ended, he turned the secret negatives over to Russian authorities, and they became important evidence in the Nuremberg War Crimes trials defining the concept of a “Holocaust by bullets”, not only at Skede Beach, but throughout Eastern Europe.

And what of the officers in charge at Skede Beach? SS Oberstormfuhrer Dietrich was tried for war crimes, but not for his actions in Latvia. He was convicted instead for ordering the shooting of several American POW pilots in Malmedy, France in 1944 and hanged in 1948. SS-Scharführer Karl Strott became a hotel owner after the war - just a nice guy running a nice hotel. Ultimately, however, he was found out and tried as a war criminal in 1971. He was sentenced to seven years, but many such sentences were commuted, and it is unclear whether Strott actually served time in prison.

But let’s not end with thoughts of perpetrators. Let’s think instead of one unknown little girl with her mama and her neighbors and friends on a faraway beach on a cold December day in 1941. Whoever you were, sweetheart, I honor your life. ❤️
