The Day VicPol Finally Did its Job Peter Lavac

By on June 2nd, 2025

https://quadrant.org.au/news-opinions/anti-semitism/the-day-vicpol-finally-did-its-job/

On Sunday the 18th May, 2025, I had the great honour to stand shoulder to shoulder with the courageous Lions of Zion and supporters to face down an enraged mob of 20,000 pro-Hamas marchers in Melbourne. The Lions are fiercely proud Jewish Australians and allies formed in response to the national antisemitism crisis which has seen incidents surge by over 700% in Australia. To Australia’s great disgrace, this surge was in response to the largest loss of Jewish life since the Holocaust, the biggest terror attack in Israel’s history, and Hamas’ declaration of war on October 7, 2023.

We stared down the thousands of pro-Hamas thugs spewing hatred and vitriol as they proceeded on their march from the Yarra to St Kilda — their sick little joke about “River to the Sea”. St Kilda and neighbouring Caulfield are meccas for Jewish life in Melbourne. Of all available destinations, there can be no doubt this route was chosen for maximum intimidation.

Early on that Sunday morning I was picked up at my hotel by a film crew from Rebel News. I was hooked up with an audio wire. It was important that my conversations with the police be recorded.

We then drove to end of Princes Bridge, where I met with the brave Lions, proudly displaying Aussie and Israeli flags. They were very happy to see me and gave me a very warm welcome. One member of the group furiously shook my hand and said, “We heard there was a criminal barrister coming down from Sydney to stand with us. We are so glad you are here.”

I gave them a briefing, first of all asking if anyone had any weapons. Of course none did. They were armed only with Israeli flags, Aussie flags,  fierce pride and great courage. Some were huge, powerfully built bodybuilders and martial arts experts. I myself am a former wrestling champion and have been a lifelong body builder. But we were only 40 against 20,000 screaming Hamas supporters and all their left-wing woke neo-Marxist hangers-on. I explained to the Lions the law of self-defense: if attacked by the Hamasnik thugs, the law does not expect them to turn the other cheek. The law allows them to use reasonable force to protect themselves and to protect each other. But this force must not be excessive. You are not allowed to pound your assailant into a coma.

I then approached the top cop in charge of the several hundred present at the scene. I introduced myself with my barrister’s ID card. He inspected it twice. I explained who I was and why I was there: to protect my people from assault, not only by the thugs, but also from assault by Victorian Police. I was there to protect their legal rights.

And what an indictment this is. At a so-called “pro-Palestine” protest outside the Victorian Parliament, police stood by and let this happen. Viral footage has repeatedly exposed a VicPol policy of protecting threatening mobs while arresting those few who are brave enough to stand against the terrorism of October 7 and the hate washing weekly over our own streets. In Sydney, at a pro-Hezbollah march in October, 2024, police allegedly said “We’re here to protect the protest.”

In Melbourne, officers were non-responsive when a protester screamed across police lines at a man draped in an Australian flag: “I’ll kill you! I’ll kill you! I’ll kill you!” The intended target implored the police, “Are you going to do anything? He just threatened to kill me! Are you going to act?” The answer from the cop was a deafening silence.

This non-policing policing is not keeping the peace. This is total surrender to the mob. These are not peaceful protests — they are fueled by hate, intimidation, threats and open support for terrorists. There is no red line that these protests haven’t already crossed. And the police have enabled it, allowed it, even encouraged it.

The only reason police acted differently last weekend was because I was there to read them the Riot Act and tell them what I expected of the police that day. After consulting with his command, the officer finally advised me, “We’ll give you a chance to protest peacefully.”

Had I not been there, I am pretty sure VicPol would have told all 40 Lions and their supporters to go away, arresting them should they fail to comply.

I was there not only to defend the legal right of the Lions to protest peacefully, but also to ensure they were protected from assault by thugs, and also from assault by the police, which has often occurred in the past. I told police directly: I was also there to prevent any unlawful arrests. I made it very clear to the top cop that I expected him and all his officers to do their job properly, concluding by saying: “You now know my position, and this is what I expect.” We then shook hands and he said we will work together.

Bumbling Biden Was Still a Tyrant By J.B. Shurk

By on June 2nd, 2025

https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2025/06/bumbling_biden_was_still_a_tyrant.html

Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard continues to declassify documents that show how the Biden administration defined political opponents as “Domestic Violent Extremists” (DVEs).  In a December 13, 2021, intelligence product entitled, “DVEs and Foreign Analogues May React Violently to COVID-19 Mitigation Mandates,” the Federal Bureau of Investigation, Department of Homeland Security, and National Counterterrorism Center created a framework for investigating critics of Biden’s COVID policies and labeling them potential domestic terrorists.  

The report claims that “anti government or anti authority” Americans see “COVID-19 vaccination and mask mandates as evidence of government overreach” and that “QAnon” has used these “prominent narratives” to encourage violence.  Dangerous thoughtcrimes “include the belief that COVID-19 vaccines are unsafe, especially for children, are part of a government or global conspiracy to deprive individuals of their civil liberties and livelihoods, or are designed to start a new social or political order.”

This Intel designation encapsulates so much of what is wrong with the federal government today.  

First, it once again frames anti-government Americans as a national threat.  Conversely, the Declaration of Independence, the Preamble to the U.S. Constitution, and the Bill of Rights all recognize government as an inherent threat to Americans.  

When we celebrate the Fourth of July next month, we will be honoring the patriotic acts of our political forebears and the many sacrifices they bore so that we might be free.  Free from what?  Oppressive government!  Our nation was founded on the truth that government is an enduring threat to individual life, property, and liberty.  Being anti-government is to be American; bowing down to government is to reject the founding principles of this nation!

Sydney University’s shameful slide into anti-Israel bigotry Students are demanding the ‘elimination’ of the Jewish State. Hugo Timms

By on June 2nd, 2025

https://www.spiked-online.com/2025/06/02/sydney-universitys-shameful-slide-into-anti-israel-bigotry/

At a meeting of Sydney University’s student council last month, a motion stating that it is ‘not anti-Semitic to call for the elimination of the apartheid state of Israel’ passed almost unanimously. The motion also called for the creation of a ‘single secular democratic state across all of historic Palestine, from the Jordan River to the Mediterranean Sea’.

Let’s be clear about what this motion really means. Realistically, the ‘elimination’ of Israel could only be achieved by the forced removal of a significant proportion of the seven million Jews who live there. You would need to be staggeringly naive to imagine that a Palestinian state might soon emerge as a ‘secular democratic’ nation where Jews would be safe to carry on living. Right now, Gaza is controlled by Hamas, an Islamist terrorist outfit, which has openly pledged to slaughter Israelis. It is only thanks to Israel’s willingness to defend itself that horrors like those of 7 October 2023 do not repeat themselves regularly.

This is why the Sydney students’ motion is so disgraceful. It betrays a total indifference towards the fate of almost half the world’s Jews. Yet so far, senior figures from the university have been reluctant to forcefully condemn it. The University of Sydney itself responded to say merely that it ‘does not endorse or condone’ the views expressed at last month’s meeting.

The pretext for the recent motion is as grim as the outcome of the vote. In February, Australian universities were forced to adopt a definition of anti-Semitism after a well-documented outbreak of bigotry targeting Jewish students and academics. At Sydney University, Australia’s oldest, there were months of anti-Israel protests last year. During this period, swastikas were spraypainted on university buildings and protesters called for an ‘intifada’ (that is, a violent uprising).

The new definition states that it is anti-Semitic to call ‘for the elimination of the state of Israel’. In their furious response to this, activists have only revealed their own intolerance and idiocy. At last month’s student-council meeting, members of the (outrageously misnamed) Students Against War group claimed that Israel’s ‘entire reason for existing’ is to ‘displace and massacre’ Palestinians. Apparently, it is therefore perfectly legitimate to call for the Jewish State to be – in that cold and dispassionate phrase – ‘eliminated’.

Liberals Embrace Islamic Extremism in Canada Despite warnings from U.S. officials, Canada’s lax border policies and political denial have allowed Islamic extremism to take root and spill into the United States. By William Barclay

By on June 2nd, 2025

https://amgreatness.com/2025/06/02/liberals-embrace-islamic-extremism-in-canada/

When FBI director Kash Patel condemned Canada for allowing Islamic terrorists to gain a foothold in North America, Canadian politicians and pundits, including new Prime Minister Mark Carney, dismissed Patel’s assertions as baseless fearmongering.

Unfortunately, it is clear that the Trump administration is correct: Radical Islamic ideology has become endemic in Canada over the past decade.

The Canadian Security Intelligence Service itself has confirmed that, since 2015, radical Islamic ideology has become commonplace throughout Canadian society, as a result of the porous borders and the Liberal government’s unwillingness to effectively regulate the influx of international migration into Canada. Numerous terrorist leaders and those with intimate connections to terrorist organizations, such as Samidoun and the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, have been permitted to migrate within the Canadian state and promote their own nihilistic ideology over the past decade.

Islamic schools in Canada are not compelled to abide by a standardized curriculum and, consequently, covertly promote radical Islamic ideology and extremism to vulnerable children in Canada. At one prominent Islamic school in Canada, the East End Madrassah, administrators were recently pressured to issue a public apology after it was exposed for “… teaching children that treacherous Jews conspired to kill the Islamic Prophet Mohammed.”

Since 2015, explicit Islamic terrorist acts have become increasingly prevalent in Canada.

According to data from the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, “[N]early a dozen terrorism-related incidents [have occurred] in Canada or abroad involving Canadians” since Oct. 7, 2023, alone. In addition, “The number of terrorism charges laid in Canada jumped 488% last year,” and “Canadian police have foiled six terrorist plots in the last 12 months alone, with arrests spanning from Edmonton to Ottawa to Toronto.” The Liberal government recently publicly downplayed a report from the United Kingdom’s Foreign, Commonwealth, & Development Office that a “terror attack attempt in Canada is very likely.”

Who Really Are the Lawless and the Dictatorial? The left cries “dictatorship” while wielding the courts, agencies, and media to undermine laws, crush dissent, and call it democracy. By Victor Davis Hanson

By on June 2nd, 2025

https://amgreatness.com/2025/06/02/who-really-are-the-lawless-and-the-dictatorial/

The left is in its usual sanctimonious but schizophrenic mood.

The media claims daily that the Trump administration has usurped power. It is supposedly destroying democracy. It tramples on the rule of law and thus has created a virtual dictatorship.

Yet at the same time, Democrats high-five the most recent district court judge who has put a stop to the current Trump executive orders—which the Trump administration abides by as it files appeals.

There are two clear conclusions from the flurry of the lower-court liberal justices’ orders: 1) Trump has obeyed their record number of interventions as the appeals go forward; and 2) rarely in the history of the republic has a pool of some 300-400 left-wing district judges exercised such nationwide control over the executive branch and indeed the entire nation.

Yet consider the array of double standards.

Donald Trump is accused of improperly dictating to private elite universities who choose to apply for and receive federal funds. At least, lower court cherry-picked justices predictably rule so.

But please spare us the district courts’ sermons on truth, justice, and the American way, given their lodestar is often ideology, not principled adherence to the law.

After all, Trump is only following the precedents of the Obama administration. With legal impunity, it had threatened fines and worse to public and private universities that did not fully implement Title 9 to Obama’s subjective standards.

Indeed, the Obama Department of Education Office of Civil Rights, in an unconstitutional fashion, habitually threatened colleges and universities (“Dear Colleague…”) with a cutoff of federal funds if they did not comply with its weird version of addressing charges of campus sexual harassment. For the “constitutional lawyer” Obama, gone was the American creed that Americans accused on campus were innocent unless proven guilty “beyond a reasonable doubt.”

For the Harvard Law graduate Obama, gone were even past administrative rules that required “clear and convincing evidence” to convict the accused.

Instead, it ordered campuses to adopt its new Orwellian standard that a mere “preponderance of the evidence” might find the targeted guilty—or risk losing federal funds.

Hillsdale College long ago declined federal subsidies and grants, only to be a target of petty, even spiteful, federal harassment from both the Obama and Biden administrations.

Targeted for Terror – Again It’s open season on Jews in America. by Mark Tapson

By on June 2nd, 2025

https://www.frontpagemag.com/targeted-for-terror-again/

Right on the heels of the recent political assassinations of the young betrothed couple Yaron Lischinsky and Sarah Milgrim at the Israeli embassy in Washington D.C., a group of elderly Jews in Boulder Colorado was targeted Sunday in a shocking act of pro-Palestinian terrorism.

Witnesses at the scene reported that the suspect, whom the FBI has identified as Mohamed Sabry Soliman, 45, hurled Molotov cocktails at people who were participating in a walk to call attention to the Israeli hostages who remain in Gaza after being kidnapped by the savage terror group Hamas in the October 7, 2023 attacks in Israel.

Run For Their Lives, the organizers of the walk, said, “This is not a protest; it is a peaceful walk to show solidarity with the hostages and their families, and a plea for their release.” The group had planned to walk the length of the Pearl Street Mall and back on Sunday afternoon with a stop at the courthouse for a video. Soliman decided – allegedly – that the members of this peace walk deserved to be burned alive.

A witness said he saw a fire and then a cloud of smoke. When he got to the scene, he saw a woman “burning on the ground” and two other people who had suffered burns on their legs. Six victims in all — aged between 67 and 88 — were rushed to a hospital. Police arrived and handcuffed the agitated Soliman, who was still carrying incendiary devices and threatening bystanders, without resistance. He was heard shouting “Free Palestine” during the assault.

In a post on X, FBI Director Kash Patel correctly referred to the horrific act as a “targeted terror attack.” Boulder Police Chief Stephen Redfearn, on the other hand, declared ludicrously in an earlier press briefing that it was way too soon and “irresponsible” to speculate on motive. Because hey, the Muslim perpetrator’s shouts that the firebombing of innocent Jews will end when Palestine is free are apparently too indecipherable and nuanced for a motive to be determined.

Trump’s Ratings Edge Higher As Good News Eclipses Negative Media Coverage: I&I/TIPP Poll Terry Jones

By on June 2nd, 2025

https://issuesinsights.com/2025/06/02/trumps-ratings-edge-higher-as-good-news-eclipses-negative-media-coverage-ibd-tipp-poll/

Presidents rise or fall based on what voters think of them, at least when it comes to political clout and influence. How is President Donald Trump doing? So far, so good, but there is still room for improvement, the latest I&I/TIPP Poll suggests.

While Trump is in only the fifth month of his second term, Americans feel much more favorable about him right now than than they did about former President Joe Biden in his final month in office, the June I&I/TIPP Poll shows.

In the latest poll, taken from May 28-30, I&I/TIPP once again asked voters: “Overall, is your opinion of Donald Trump generally favorable, generally unfavorable, or are you not familiar enough to say one way or the other?” (The poll of 1,395 adults has a margin of error of +/-2.7 percentage points).

The answer: He splits the electorate pretty much down the middle when it comes to favorability, with 45% awarding him “favorable” marks for his term so far, and an equivalent 45% calling his service so far “unfavorable.” So, on net, Trump is even. Among the rest, 7% said they were “not familiar enough to say,” while another 3% said they were “not sure.”

Why a Nuclear Agreement With Iran Is Not Enough by Khaled Abu Toameh

By on June 2nd, 2025

https://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/21661/iran-nuclear-agreement
As talks between Washington and Tehran are underway to reach an agreement on Iran’s efforts to acquire nuclear weapons, even if a deal is reached, unless it features “anywhere, anytime” inspections, to which Iran has never agreed, Iran will secretly continue to develop nuclear weapons and cheat, cheat, cheat.

If such a deal is reached, Iran also is not going to stop its financial and military support for its terror proxies in the Middle East, including Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ), Hezbollah in Lebanon, and the Houthi militia in Yemen. Iran, in short, is not going to abandon its declared goal of obliterating the “Zionist entity” (“the Little Satan”) or the United States (“the Great Satan”).

If Trump is serious about preventing war and bloodshed in the Middle East, he must insist that any agreement with Iran’s mullahs include no centrifuges or uranium enrichment of any kind, and no support for Tehran’s terror proxies.

If something could possibly go wrong, unfortunately it will — leaving Trump with the legacy of delivering yet another laughably fake peace deal and of his presidency being that of another failed Barack Obama.

Trump must also demand that Iran’s leaders stop calling for the annihilation of Israel.

The same is true for the leaders of Qatar, as well Qatar’s personal insults against Trump himself.

The Iranian regime is determined to continue supporting [terrorist leaders] to help them achieve their goal of murdering Jews and eliminating Israel.

“Iran’s openly stated goal is to destroy Israel, but the broader game is its perception of the United States as the ‘Great Satan.’ Iran’s strategy involves orchestrating various terrorist groups in the Middle East, with multifaceted objectives. Firstly, it seeks to dominate the Islamic world in the region, asserting its influence over other nations. Simultaneously, it aims to strike at the credibility of the United States, a long-standing adversary in Iranian foreign policy.” — Shishir Gupta, executive editor, Hindustan Times, April 27, 2023.

The Trump administration would do well to take these issues into consideration before signing any agreement with Iran. Such an agreement, if reached, unfortunately will not mean that the Iranian regime has become America’s friend. As long as the mullahs continue to wish for the destruction of Israel and America, and to back Islamist terror groups, they should be treated as dangerous enemies of both Israel and the US.

It is wrong and unrealistic to assume that Iran’s Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and his regime, if and when they sign a nuclear agreement with the Trump administration, would abandon their dream of destroying Israel and America.

As talks between Washington and Tehran are underway to reach an agreement on Iran’s efforts to acquire nuclear weapons, even if a deal is reached, unless it features “anywhere, anytime” inspections, to which Iran has never agreed, Iran will secretly continue to develop nuclear weapons and cheat, cheat, cheat.

If such a deal is reached, Iran also is not going to stop its financial and military support for its terror proxies in the Middle East, including Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ), Hezbollah in Lebanon, and the Houthi militia in Yemen. Iran, in short, is not going to abandon its declared goal of obliterating the “Zionist entity” (“the Little Satan”) or the United States (“the Great Satan”).

US President Donald J. Trump said on May 28 that he believes his administration is “very close to a solution” with Iran on a nuclear agreement. “Right now, I think they want to make a deal,” Trump said. “And if we can make a deal, I’d save a lot of lives.”

These are the main reasons that address why an agreement regarding Iran’s nuclear ambitions is not enough.

The Iranian regime’s ongoing effort to acquire nuclear weapons is a huge problem, as are its repeated demands to enrich uranium (whatever could go wrong?) and threats to destroy Israel – especially with Iran’s proxy terror groups that also seek to destroy Israel.

If Trump is serious about preventing war and bloodshed in the Middle East, he must insist that any agreement with Iran’s mullahs include no centrifuges or uranium enrichment of any kind, and no support for Tehran’s terror proxies.

If something could possibly go wrong, unfortunately it will — leaving Trump with the legacy of delivering yet another laughably fake peace deal and of his presidency being that of another failed Barack Obama.

Were it not for Iran’s financial and military support, Hamas, Palestinian Islamic Jihad, Hezbollah, and the Houthis would not have been able to fire thousands of rockets, ballistic missiles and explosive drones at Israel over the past 20 months.

Halting or limiting Iran’s uranium enrichment may be a positive development, but what about the hundreds of millions of dollars and the weapons it sends to its terror proxies? The Trump administration must demand an immediate halt to the funding and arming of the Iran-backed Islamist terror groups. Furthermore, it must demand that Iran’s leaders stop calling for the annihilation of Israel.

The same is true for the leaders of Qatar (such as here and here), as well Qatar’s personal insults against Trump himself.

As Trump was voicing optimism regarding the prospects of reaching a nuclear deal with the Iranian regime, Ali Akbar Velayati, senior adviser to Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, received a delegation of Hamas and PIJ officials in Tehran and discussed with them “the latest developments in the region, especially the situation in Palestine and the Gaza Strip.”

Iranian and Palestinian media outlets quoted Velayati as “assuring” the Hamas and PIJ officials that “the Zionist entity is doomed to disappear.” Hamas and PIJ, the second largest Iran-backed terror group in the Gaza Strip, participated in the October 7, 2023 invasion of Israel. At least 1,200 Israelis were murdered and thousands wounded on that day. Another 251 Israelis and foreign nationals were kidnapped to the Gaza Strip, where 58 remain in captivity (only 20 are believed to be alive).

Velayati also “affirmed Iran’s solidarity with the [Palestinian] resistance groups and praised the victories of the Palestinian resistance [against Israel] as a rare achievement in the history of Islam,” according to media reports.

The meeting between Velayati and the Hamas and PIJ representatives shows that the Iranian regime has no intention to turn its back on its terror proxies, notwithstanding any possible future nuclear agreement with the US. The opposite is true. Velayati reassured the Palestinian terror leaders that the Iranian regime is determined to continue supporting them, to help them achieve their goal of murdering Jews and eliminating Israel. When the Iranian official talks about the “resistance,” he is referring to terrorism against Israel, including the October 7 massacre.

Velayati’s talk about the destruction of the “Zionist entity” shows that the Iranian regime does not intend to abandon its dream of wiping Israel off the map, and the US as well.

In the past few years, Khamenei has repeatedly called for the destruction of Israel and America. He was also quick to praise the October 7 massacre as a “logical and legal” action.

It is wrong and unrealistic to assume that Khamenei and his regime, if and when they sign a nuclear agreement with the Trump administration, would abandon their dream of destroying Israel and America. The previous nuclear agreement the Iranian regime signed with the Obama administration in 2015 did not stop the mullahs in Tehran from providing financial and military aid to the Islamist terror groups in the Middle East. That agreement, known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), also did not see Iran’s leaders change their minds about destroying Israel.

Iran’s support for the Palestinian terror groups, Hezbollah and the Houthi militia has brought death and destruction on Palestinians, Lebanese and Yemenis. Iran’s regime is a threat not only to Israel, but also to the US.

“Iran’s openly stated goal is to destroy Israel, but the broader game is its perception of the United States as the ‘Great Satan,'” wrote Shishir Gupta, executive editor of the Hindustan Times, in April 2023.

“Iran’s strategy involves orchestrating various terrorist groups in the Middle East, with multifaceted objectives. Firstly, it seeks to dominate the Islamic world in the region, asserting its influence over other nations. Simultaneously, it aims to strike at the credibility of the United States, a long-standing adversary in Iranian foreign policy.”

The Trump administration would do well to take these issues into consideration before signing any agreement with Iran. Such an agreement, if reached, unfortunately will not mean that the Iranian regime has become America’s friend. As long as the mullahs continue to wish for the destruction of Israel and America, and to back Islamist terror groups, they should be treated as dangerous enemies of both Israel and the US.

US envoy Mike Huckabee suggests France “carve” Palestinian state out of Riviera

By on June 2nd, 2025

https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/world/us-envoy-mike-huckabee-suggests-france-carve-palestinian-state-out-of-riviera/ar-AA1F

The US ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee has lashed out at France’s advocacy for recognition of a Palestinian state, saying that if it supported such an outcome it could “carve out a piece of the French Riviera” and create one.

France is co-chairing with Saudi Arabia this month an international conference at the United Nations aimed at resurrecting the idea of a two-state solution, which the government of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu opposes.

Paris has also said it could recognize a Palestinian state itself this year.

In an interview with Fox News published on Saturday, Huckabee called the initiative at the UN “incredibly inappropriate when Israel is in the midst of a war.”

“October 7 changed a lot of things,” he said, referring to the 2023 Hamas attack on Israel that sparked the war in Gaza.

“If France is really so determined to see a Palestinian state, I’ve got a suggestion for them – carve out a piece of the French Riviera and create a Palestinian state. They are welcome to do that, but they are not welcome to impose that kind of pressure on a sovereign nation.”
