Homosexuality and "Pride"

The public sex displays ruined whatever might have been fine about “Pride.” They still say it’s about “love” and “acceptance.” That stopped being true around 2013 in D.C., when it became common for shirtless old men to step out for pride downtown wearing leather harnesses, “transgenders” showing off their mastectomy scars and kinky deviants wearing fetish costumes. That has nothing to do with “love” or societal “acceptance” of romantic adult partners. That’s exhibitionism. And I never consented to being exposed to it. (Which is the same thing as sexual harassment, by the way.)

Israel vs Arabs

We need to remember the statement of Golda Meir: “If Arabs put down their weapons today, there would be peace. If Jews put down their weapons today, there would be no Israel.”

What is LEFTISM?

 

Where a Loss of Moral Compass Started

The loss of a moral compass that distinguished good from evil started with a hatred towards Israel that became accepted and then encouraged in society.  Equating the heinous acts of Hamas terrorists, who deliberately hide behind innocent children, with the actions of IDF soldiers, who defend all civilians—especially children—has led to a loss of the ability to distinguish between good and evil. 

There are only 15 million Jews worldwide, comprising less than 0.2% of the world's population, but condoning anti-Semitism—even or especially when couched as anti-Zionism—opens the door to a world without boundaries or ethics. When we turn the world upside down and pretend that Iran, Hezbollah, and Hamas are "good" and Israel is an "evil colonizer" (an especially ridiculous claim, given that Jews have lived in Israel continuously for over 3,000 years and are the indigenous people of that land); when we deny the Holocaust; or when we blame the death of Kennedy or the pedophilia of Jeffrey Epstein on Israel, we are leading ourselves down a pathway that will accept any form of evil and then pretend that it is righteousness.

Israel is the Front Line of Defense

Most educated people recognize that Israel is the front line of defense in a war against the West. The enemies of Israel would attack the United States just as vehemently as they attack Israel if they could. They call Israel the “Little Satan” with America being the “Great Satan.” Israel is the only democracy in the Middle East. It is the only place in the region where people can observe any religion they choose, be it Muslim, Christian, Jew, Druze, or atheist, and live by any personal sexual standard they embrace, whether straight, gay, or even transgender/gender fluid.

Jews Are the “Coal Mine”

This is not about anti-Semitism, even though there is truth to the old statement that “Jews are the canary in the coal mine.” Historically we can see that if a culture accepts anti-Semitism, it soon accepts all forms of hate. And this is what we are now finding in Western culture, as evidenced by the AP article, which portrays Hezbollah as innocent victims, denying the many thousands of attacks that they have launched at Israel and their repeated commitment to destroying that nation.

Hamas Are Proud of Their War Crimes

On October 7, 2023, Hamas attacked Israel in ways more brutal and evil than anything seen since the Middle Ages: murder, rape, torture, and the kidnapping of over 1,200 civilians. It was even worse than the Nazi regime, which tried to conceal its atrocities in concentration camps, because these Hamas perpetrators proudly recorded and shared their acts as if they were admirable. The entire world was shocked, condemning them as the ultimate manifestation of evil in human form for the heinous crimes they committed.

Demokrats Are Soft On Crime

A 2022 report by the Heritage Foundation, “The Blue City Murder Problem,” found that 27 of the top 30 cities with the highest homicide rates were run by Democrats. … With their dehumanizing rhetoric and soft-on-crime policies, progressives create permission structures that excuse crime and violence, remove accountability, and blur the distinction between right and wrong.

Western Civilization Values Found in the Bible

Western civilization is not based on industrialization. Rather, it is founded on accepting and integrating the values found in the Bible—both the Hebrew and Christian scriptures. At the most basic level, this includes the Ten Commandments, the Torah, and the many teachings of Jesus: the rejection of enslaving other human beings; acting rightly and righteously; and, most clearly, recognizing the difference between good and evil and fighting evil whenever it raises its ugly head.

United Nations vs Israel

The United Nations, an institute built on ideals of fairness and equality, has become a breeding ground for relentless, one-sided attacks on Israel—a democratic state in the Middle East. Let’s call it what it is: institutionalized antisemitism. While Israel is held to impossible standards and vilified in hundreds of resolutions, some of the world’s most oppressive regimes walk away unscathed.

When LEFT and Right Share

Today our modern vision of the good life has been nearly universally transformed into the freedom of personal choice, control of your identity, being accepted for who you are, finding adventure, and creating your own path in life. For children of the Left, a slight supplemental variation includes finding meaning in particular causes, like climate change, gender identity, and so-called anti-racism. For children of the right—mostly Christian—they find some small portion of the good life in patriotism and personal faith. But both modern groups—the Left and the Right—roughly share the same modern vision.
