(Office of the Iranian Supreme Leader via AP) Not long before the ceasefire was concluded, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said this about Hamas: “They received blows that they didn’t expect. And I have no doubt we set them back years.” Although there was no reason to doubt Netanyahu’s word, others were framing the outcome of the conflict differently. Iran’s Supreme Leader, the Ayatollah Khamenei, tweeted : “I thank God for His aid and the honor bestowed on Palestinian fighters. I extend my congratulations for victory over Zionist criminals.” He wasn’t just putting a good face on the imbroglio. He had good reason to claim victory.
Nor was Khamenei the only one who did so. According to Iran’s Press TV , “Chief of Hamas’ Political Bureau Ismail Haniyeh congratulated Palestinians on ‘this strategic, divine’ victory, which was achieved by the ‘courageous’ resistance forces.” And Abu Hamza, spokesman for Palestinian Islamic Jihad’s al-Quds Brigades, crowed that the Palestinians had placed Israel in “unprecedented existential, historic trouble.” He added: “We managed to restrain the enemy and his herds of settlers,” and praised the Islamic Republic of Iran, saying to it, “You are partners in our victory.”
Abu Ubaida, the spokesman for Hamas’ armed wing, was likewise exultant: “With the help of God, we were able to humiliate the enemy, its fragile entity and its savage army.”
How can all these jihad leaders claim victory when Hamas has been set back years, as Netanyahu said? Chiefly because of the reality of the ceasefire itself. In Islamic law, an Islamic army, which Hamas and its allies undoubtedly constitute, doesn’t ask for or want a ceasefire unless it is losing. And Hamas, according to Israeli Intelligence Minister Eli Cohen , was “begging for a ceasefire.”
Who jumped to give Hamas what it wanted? Joe Biden’s handlers, of course. CNN reported Wednesday that according to the White House, Old Joe Biden told Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu “‘that he expected a significant de-escalation today on the path to a ceasefire’ in the raging violence. The statement was a signal Biden is losing patience with Netanyahu, a leader he has […]

Will America-First News Outlets Make it to 2023?
Things are looking grim for conservative and populist news sites.
There’s something happening behind the scenes at several popular conservative news outlets. 2021 was bad, but 2022 is proving to be disastrous for news sites that aren’t “playing ball” with the corporate media narrative. It’s being said that advertisers are cracking down, forcing some of the biggest ad networks like Google and Yahoo to pull their inventory from conservative outlets. This has had two major effects. First, it has cooled most conservative outlets from discussing “taboo” topics like Pandemic Panic Theater, voter fraud, or The Great Reset. Second, it has isolated those ad networks that aren’t playing ball.
Certain topics are anathema for most ad networks. Speaking out against vaccines or vaccine mandates is a certain path to being demonetized. Highlighting voter fraud in the 2020 and future elections is another instant advertising death penalty. Throw in truthful stories about climate change hysteria, Critical Race Theory, and the border crisis and it’s easy to understand how difficult it is for America-First news outlets to spread the facts, share conservative opinions, and still pay the bills.
Without naming names, I have been told of several news outlets who have been forced to either consolidate with larger organizations or who have backed down on covering certain topics out of fear of being “canceled” by the ad networks. I get it. This is a business for many of us and it’s not very profitable. Those of us who do this for a living are often barely squeaking by, so loss of additional revenue can often mean being forced to make cuts. That means not being able to cover the topics properly. Its a Catch-22: Tell the truth and lose the money necessary to keep telling the truth, or avoid the truth and make enough money to survive. Those who have chosen survival simply aren’t able to spread the truth properly.
We will never avoid the truth. The Lord will provide if it is His will. Our job is simply to share the facts, spread the Gospel, and educate as many Americans as possible while exposing the forces of evil.
To those who have the means, we ask that you please donate. We have options available now, but there is no telling when those options will cancel us. We have our GivingFuel page. There have been many who have been canceled by PayPal, but for now it’s still an option. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to get the truth to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
Thank you, and God Bless!
