bonginoreport--2020-06-23--IDF Generals Are Urging Trump to Back Netanyahu’s Sovereignty Plan

A group of IDF generals has written a letter to US President Donald Trump urging him to support Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu ’ s annexation plan to apply sovereignty over parts of the West Bank .
“ Your farsighted vision for peace , which includes a recognition of Israel ’ s sovereign rights in Judea and Samaria – the cradle of Jewish civilization – has put wind in the wings of thousands of Israel Defense Force officers and warriors and buffeted the sails of the Israeli nation as a whole , ” the group wrote .
“ Mr .
President @ @ @ @ @ @ @ leadership , we stand now at an historic crossroad in the 4,000-year history of the Jewish people in the Land of Israel , ” it continued .
“ We trust that you will continue to work to secure the future peace of the people of Israel and of the Middle East as a whole by standing with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu as he applies our sovereignty to our eastern frontier , the Jordan Valley and to our cities , villages and farms in Judea and Samaria in accordance with your visionary peace plan @ @ @ @ @ @ @ As God Almighty said to Joshua as he stood before the Jordan River , poised to lead the Nation of Israel to the Promised Land , so we say to you today : “ Be strong and of good courage , ” they wrote .

A group of IDF generals has written a letter to US President Donald Trump urging him to support Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s annexation plan to apply sovereignty over parts of the West Bank.
The group, known as habit'honistim – Protectors of Israel – holds that the plan offers Israel an unparalleled security opportunity to place 30% of the West Bank within Israel’s permanent borders.
“Your farsighted vision for peace, which includes a recognition of Israel’s sovereign rights in Judea and Samaria – the cradle of Jewish civilization – has put wind in the wings of thousands of Israel Defense Force officers and warriors and buffeted the sails of the Israeli nation as a whole,” the group wrote.
“Mr. President, thanks to your friendship and visionary leadership, we stand now at an historic crossroad in the 4,000-year history of the Jewish people in the Land of Israel,” it continued.
“We trust that you will continue to work to secure the future peace of the people of Israel and of the Middle East as a whole by standing with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu as he applies our sovereignty to our eastern frontier, the Jordan Valley and to our cities, villages and farms in Judea and Samaria in accordance with your visionary peace plan,” the group said.
“As God Almighty said to Joshua as he stood before the Jordan River, poised to lead the Nation of Israel to the Promised Land, so we say to you today: “Be strong and of good courage,” they wrote.
The idea of Israeli sovereignty over 30% of the West Bank, including all of the settlements, is already incorporated into Trump's peace plan to resolve the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
However, Israel can do so only with approval from the US. There are those who fear that Washington, with an eye to appeasing moderate Arab nations such as Jordan and the United Arab Emirates, may want a more modified plan.
Opinions are also split between Netanyahu and Alternate Prime Minister Benny Gantz, who wants phased or limited sovereignty.
The US wants the agreement of both Gantz and Netanyahu for any sovereignty plan. US Ambassador to Israel David Friedman is expected to hold meetings at the White House on the subject this week, possibly as early as today.
Opinion on the wisdom of an annexation plan is split among Israel's top security experts. A separate group of former IDF security officials known as Commanders for Israel’s Security has taken precisely the opposite stance as the Protectors of Israel.
It has argued that any annexation plan could lead to the collapse of the Palestinian Authority, threaten the stability of Jordan and potentially trigger a violent regional and local reaction.

Packers legend Brett Favre took to Twitter on Monday to attempt to clarify comments he made comparing former NFL player and war hero Pat Tillman , to Colin Kaepernick .

Kaepernick will also be conferred “ hero ” status for sacrificing his NFL career .
“ It ’ s not easy for a guy his age — black @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to stop something that you ’ ve always dreamed of doing , and put it on hold , maybe forever , for something that you believe in , ” Favre said of Kaepernick .

On Monday, Favre attempted to clarify those comments.
Including Pat Tillman’s name in the interview on Colin Kaepernick was not a comparison of the two, but a recognition that they both sidelined their football dreams in pursuit of a cause. Pat tragically lost his life, making the ultimate sacrifice, and deserves the highest honor. — Brett Favre (@BrettFavre) June 22, 2020
While Favre deserves some credit for recognizing the extreme error of his statement, there are still problems with his attempt at clarification.
Chiefly, the fact that Colin Kaepernick did not knowingly turn his back on the NFL when he walked away from the 49ers at the end of the 2016 season. In fact, his agents continued to work aggressively to land him a new deal.

He turned them down because he was asking for so much money that the league couldn’t afford him.
Tillman, meanwhile, absolutely knew he was not only walking away from the NFL, but also walking away from a multi-million dollar offer from the Rams. Plus, obviously, he knew he was walking away from the NFL and taking an enormous gamble with his life.
Then, there’s the obvious fact that Favre did indeed compare Kaepernick and Tillman in his initial statement and, you could argue, even compared them again in his clarification tweet. However, at least he seems to have recognized that comparing the two was a dumb thing to do.

bonginoreport--2020-06-23--Conservative Commentator Turns the Left’s Cancel Culture Campaign Against Itself

The left-wing mob is recharged and totally insane .
They ’ re back on this cancel culture nonsense .
They ’ re tearing down statues of historical figures they view as problematic .
There is no reasoning with them .
They ’ re the intellectual al-Qaeda of our time .
You don ’ t negotiate with terrorists .
As Lincoln , Washington , Jefferson , and Roosevelt are being targeted , two things are clear .
This has never been about Confederate statues , folks .
This has been centered on the Left ’ s hatred of America and its @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it through a woke paradigm where no nuance is afforded to anyone .
The far-left loony code of ethics , for lack of a better term , is retroactively applied here .
It ’ s utterly insane .
Now , granted , I admit that the Left had a good PR move here .
The Confederacy isn ’ t all that popular , of course .
By targeting them , they ’ ve created a campaign that puts every historical figure at risk .
It was never going to stop with Jackson , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ This was the flank march , the backdoor maneuver to smash all the people .
As you already know , the statue of former President Ulysses S. Grant was torn down .
American history has dark periods .
The Confederacy , for better or worse , is part of that narrative .
It must be defended , so yes—I will defend all the statues because the alternative is what we ’ re seeing now : A roving band of historically illiterate morons whose main goal is destruction and nothing else .
Conservative commentator @ @ @ @ @ @ @ war home for these clowns , compiling a list of institutions that should be canceled due to the Left ’ s new rules on this matter .
If you ’ re a member of the liberal elite , you should be ashamed .
The entire Ivy League was built on racism .
Granted , some of you knew this already .
New York City was named after James , the Duke of York , and eventual King of England ( James II ) , who , along with his brother , King Charles @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the slave trade .
William M. Rice , who founded Rice University , wanted the institution to be “ whites only.
” Elihu Yale , who founded Yale University , was a slave trader as well .
Oh , and you bet some liberals were not happy with Kelly making fun of them .
It seems if cancel culture is to be executed fully , then the bastions of liberal power must be the first to go .
For liberals , this is not how it ’ s supposed to work , right @ @ @ @ @ @ @ rules .
Rice must be renamed or destroyed , as does Yale .
New York City might have to be torn down completely .
Again , we didn ’ t make up these rules .
You people did .
# CancelYale is now trending , and Kelly should do a victory lap for turning this idiotic fetish among American liberals against itself .
They thought they were pure .
They thought they were right .
Instead , they are , as they have always been , historically illiterate idiots who now deserve the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ll be waiting to see if these left-wing bastions will change .
I doubt it .
But it sucks when you get a face full of buckshot , huh ?

Conservative commentator Jesse Kelly has decided to bring the war home for these clowns, compiling a list of institutions that should be canceled due to the Left’s new rules on this matter. If you’re a member of the liberal elite, you should be ashamed. The entire Ivy League was built on racism. Granted, some of you knew this already. New York City was named after James, the Duke of York, and eventual King of England (James II), who, along with his brother, King Charles II, created a global monopoly on the slave trade. William M.

Oh, and you bet some liberals were not happy with Kelly making fun of them.
FYI: I’m not stopping until justice is done. @RiceUniversity has until next week to remove this statue of racist founder William M. Rice from its campus. Or we will march on Rice.

As they should. William M. Rice said Rice should be “for whites only”. There’s still a statue of him on campus.

It seems if cancel culture is to be executed fully, then the bastions of liberal power must be the first to go. For liberals, this is not how it’s supposed to work, right? Yeah, but these are your rules. Rice must be renamed or destroyed, as does Yale. New York City might have to be torn down completely. Again, we didn’t make up these rules. You people did. #CancelYale is now trending, and Kelly should do a victory lap for turning this idiotic fetish among American liberals against itself. They thought they were pure. They thought they were right. Instead, they are, as they have always been, historically illiterate idiots who now deserve the dunce cap and canning. We’ll be waiting to see if these left-wing bastions will change. I doubt it. But it sucks when you get a face full of buckshot, huh?


bonginoreport--2020-06-23--President Trump Blasts Obama: “It’s Treason”

That was President Trump ’ s blunt , some would say jarring , response in an interview Monday when prompted to specify the crime encompassed by the myriad abuses committed in the now-debunked Russia collusion probe set in motion by the Obama administration — a 3-year ordeal that plagued the Trump 2016 campaign , presidential transition , and presidency .
`` It 's treason , ” the president repeated .
“ Look , when I came out a long time ago , I said they 've been spying on our campaign .
They 've been 'taping , ' that was @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of 'taping , ' they were spying on my campaign .
I told you that a long time ago .
It turned out I was right .
Let 's see what happens to them now.
” The president let fly with his unfiltered broadside against his predecessor toward the end of a wide-ranging , 20-minute interview at the White House , on the West Wing Colonnade outside the Oval Office .
U.S. Attorney John Durham has been tasked by Attorney General William Barr with investigating the origins of the much-hyped , now-discredited narrative @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to hijack the 2016 presidential election .
Part of the focus is expected to center on what actions former Obama administration officials took surrounding the Russia probe during the election and in the presidential transition interval following Trump ’ s unexpected victory .
Those findings are expected to be released sometime this summer .
“ I never met Durham because I want to stay out of it because otherwise , it 's going to look political , but as you know , Durham is a highly respected person , and Bill Barr is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , ” said the president .
“ Let 's see what they come up with , but they do n't have to tell me .
All I have to do is read the papers — the 'insurance policy ' : ‘ In case she does n't win , we have an insurance policy.
’ Now we 've caught them.
” Alluding to rapidly accumulating evidence of politicized investigative and prosecutorial abuses thoughout the course of the Russia probe , President Trump said , `` We caught them cold .

“Treason.”

REVEALED: Facebook Oversight Board – Responsible for Reviewing Censorship – Is 95% Anti-Trump AND Three Quarters Are Non-U.S. Citizens
Facebook Oversight’s Board – a new body that can overrule founder Mark Zuckerberg – is drastically, disproportionately stacked with foreign, left-wing activists including individuals on the payroll of progressive mega-donor George Soros, The National Pulse can reveal.
The recently constituted board is comprised of activists who’ve compared President Trump to Adolf Hitler, former Obama officials, and hailed efforts to remove President Trump from Twitter as “awesome.”
Facebook describes the board as wielding “judgment over some of the most difficult and significant content decisions.”
The idea for the board itself came from Noah Feldman, the Harvard law professor and Democrat-selected Trump impeachment witness who in 2018 insisted the West “needs Shariah and Islam.”
The overwhelmingly left-leaning composition is just the latest testament to Big Tech’s leftist bias. Whether Facebook and its oversight board are leveraged to influence elections, culture, or political discussion, the oversight board’s purported neutrality and nonpartisanship appears to be a ruse.
The individuals listed below serve are the last stand between Facebook’s censor-prone left-wing bias and user’s ability to share content, and it doesn’t bode well for conservatives.

Dad even extolled a Charles Blow’s New York Times op-ed on December 4th, 2016.
While Dad doesn’t specify the exact article, the timing corresponds to an article by Blow entitled Why We Must Not ‘Get Along’ With Donald Trump.
It was one of a “series of scathing articles about Donald J.

He’s also concerned about the threat posed by “ordinary ironic” and ostensibly “racist” internet humor while sharing a link to an article proclaiming that “online fascism is the most dangerous political current in the world today,” and that “we must confront it, urgently.”
“I love this,” he tweeted of a blog entitled ‘Teen Vogue vs Trump; American Vogue vs Hitler’.
The article singles out right-wing users:
“This new style of fascism proselytises online, attempts to “redpill” white men using the plausible deniability afforded by irony, and then immerses recruits in an online movement culture built on memes, pseudoscientific dogma, racial panic and the worst of internet culture.”
He also believes that “Twitter has the power to block the President and they have the legal right to block him.”
While Suzor stops short of imploring Twitter to ban President Trump – concluding it’s “complicated” – his rationale against the social media platform doing so is because “social media platforms heavily criticized for interfering in political processes or even thinking about interfering in political processes.”
Suzor even acknowledges that large social media platforms “already influence politics in a huge way.”

Karman, a Yemeni activist who founded Women Journalists Without Chains, has slammed President Trump for being “racist” in foreign press. In an interview with top Spanish outlet El Pais, when asked if “the arrival of Trump to the White House represents a change” in repsect to Yemen’s ongoing civil war, Karman responded:
“Unfortunately I don’t trust Trump because I generally don’t trust racist people. I do not think that he will become an actor to solve the conflict, he is a person who moves by threats, but he could paralyze the arms trade, for example, or undertake a real diplomatic mobilization.”
Karlan was selected by Democrats to serve as a ‘Constitutional Expert’ during President Trump’s House impeachment inquiry.
Speaking to the American Constitution Society in 2006, Karlan proclaimed “we have to seize back the high ground on patriotism and on love of our country, because we have more reason than they do to love America” to a fawning, liberal audience.
She also went on an anti-white tirade: “The rich, pampered, prodigal, sanctimonious, incurious, white, straight sons of the powerful do pretty well everywhere in the world, and they always have. But what about us? Snarky, bisexual, Jewish women who want the freedom to say what we think, read what we want, and love who we do.”
She’s donated 50 times – nearly $13,000 – exclusively to Democrats including Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, and Elizabeth Warren according to FEC records.
Karlan also used her prominent position at the Judiciary Committee to mock President Trump’s 13-year-old son, Barron.
In a 2017 American Constitution Society panel discussion, Karlan proudly professes her contempt towards the president:
“I came in from the airport yesterday and I got off the bus from Dulles down at L’Enfant Plaza and I walked up to the hotel and as I was walking past what used to be the old post office building and is now Trump hotel… I had to cross the street, of course,” she said.
“Are you staying there?” Neil Siegel, a fellow panelist, asked.
Karlan responded, “God, no! Never!”
Karlan also Obama administration’s Department of Justice and earned a glowing review from The New York Times as a “Legal Leader Committed to Progressive Causes.”
Botero-Marino has insisted the Trump administration demonstrates “authoritarianism,” insisted “Trump’s only interest is Trump,” and has extolled the anti-Trump “resistance” on Twitter. Most egregiously, she responded to a verified Twitter user imploring “Let’s report Trump’s abusive behavior: Incite hatred, aggression and violence against the press with impunity #ReportTrumpTweet” by praising his efforts as “awesome.”
“Trump’s trill is a disgrace to the United States and an affront to the most elementary principles of the Rule of Law,” she added.

Protesters at CHAZ/CHOP Won’t Be Prosecuted – Will Instead Receive Counseling From Group Part of CHAZ/CHOP

Protestors in the city of Seattle will not face charges and will instead be diverted to other treatment options .
The DA 's office has received 37 misdemeanor cases so far from the latest civil unrest in Seattle .
Many are for obstructing police , but the list includes half a dozen assaults , theft , reckless endangerment and attempted property damage .

After two weeks of anguished demonstrations over the murder of George Floyd and the killing of other unarmed black men by police , it is plain to me that peaceful protestors should not be prosecuted despite having been arrested during events that have sometimes devolved into violent and destructive confrontations with Seattle police and supporting law enforcement agencies .

If you ’ re marching @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and out after the now-cancelled curfew , I have no interest in charging you with a crime .
Other misdemeanor reports have crossed my desk , however , including reckless endangerment and some lower-level assaults .

Donald Trump 's adopted city of Washington DC is under threat of occupation by protestors turned occupiers who would tear down its public art , set fire to its historical landmarks , destroy public property , and take over public streets .
