I lied. No follies, but I needed something alliterative, because.<\/p>\n

Seems the BBC is in hotter water nowadays – they characterize Hamas terrorists as “militants” despite the British government and most everyone else calling them terrorists. They blamed the Israelis for the famed Palestinian rocket debris explosion which “killed 500”, which Sir Michael Ellis\u00a0 described as “worldwide reputational damage”.\u00a0 But wait – there’s more.<\/p>\n

Turns out in 2004 the BBC did an internal report which documented its anti-Israeli and anti-Jewish bias.<\/p>\n

It was carried out by Martim Balen, a senior journalist, but has since been suppressed with the corporation going to court to keep its findings secret.<\/p>\n

Telegraph<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

According to the article, the BBC has spent over 350,000 pounds in legal fees keeping the report secret. Almost 20 years? Hmm… makes you wonder just how embarrassing it is.<\/p>\n

And Saturday pro-Palestinian marches left a trail of graffiti and destruction through Washington.<\/p>\n

The White House is silent after pro-Palestinian demonstrators vandalized its gates with signs and paint during a rowdy protest over the weekend.<\/p>\n

Tens of thousands of people descended on Washington, D.C., on Saturday to demand a cease-fire between Israel and terror group Hamas.<\/p>\n

Protesters could be seen vandalizing the White House fence and wrenching at the gate as antisemitic graffiti was left on several buildings along the protesters’ path through the city.<\/p>\n

The protesters on Saturday could be seen defacing multiple statues in downtown Washington as well, wrapping Palestinian flags around a statue of Benjamin Franklin and another of General Marquis de Lafayette near the White House.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Capitol Police arrested hundreds well and will try to get them all sentenced to years in prison\u00a0<\/del> nope, apparently these were “mostly peaceful” and only one was arrested by Metro cops.<\/p>\n

San Francisco is really tough on drug dealers now that their ultra-lib DA Chesa Boudin is gone, right? Not really.<\/p>\n

As of this month, there are 535 suspected drug dealers with open bench warrants who failed to
\nshow up in court to face narcotics sales charges. Judges granted their freedom from custody pending trial.<\/p>\n

Nearly 140 of the 535 suspects have been arrested and released from jail, multiple times, the DA\u2019s Office said.<\/p>\n

The District Attorney\u2019s Office said it filed 316 motions to detain the most egregious drug dealing
\nsuspects because of the \u201cextreme public safety risk they pose.\u201d San Francisco judges only granted 32 of those motions to keep the suspects in custody.\u00a0 KRON4<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Doesn’t look\u00a0 like the drug dealers are worried…why should they? This is the definition of a revolving door system.<\/p>\n

And, in partially GOOD news for once, Congress managed bipartisan cooperation\u00a0 in censuring Rashida Tlaib<\/p>\n

The censure resolution, authored by Rep. Rich McCormick, R-Ga., passed 234 to 188, with 22 Democrats voting for it and four Republicans opposing the measure. A censure vote only requires a simple majority to pass.<\/p>\n

Republicans have seized on Tlaib\u2019s words and actions criticizing Israel, joining several Democrats in condemning a video she posted on social media showing protesters chanting \u201cfrom the river to the sea\u201d \u2014 a phrase that has been used by Hamas and that Jewish groups consider an antisemitic call for the elimination of Israel.

Pity they didn’t throw her out so hard she’d still be bouncing, but I guess this is as good as we can expect.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
