I'm not going to talk about the gut-wrenching grief and anger that every Jew, myself included, feels today. I've known the news (from an informed, very reliable source) for some months and thought I had been through the worst of my mourning and rage, but every time I spoke with another Jew today, we both burst into tears. However, that's beyond the scope of this podcast.
What I *will* say is that this morning's macabre "Dead Jewish Baby Faire" proves beyond a shadow of a doubt what utter, despicable, amoral, soulless, worthless, dishonest trash the mainstream media are. There is no bottom for them. Not only should @AP be kicked out of the White House press room, most of their colleagues should be too. Every time a missile landed in the parking lot of the Al-Shifa Terror Center and Hospital, they carried on as if nuclear warfare had been inflicted by the Israelis. Every time a terrorist/"reporter" was killed, they tore their hair "Lamentations" style. They uncritically repeated every last obviously bogus, ever-increasing, fantastical alleged body count in Gaza. They kept a straight face and shouted about "famine" while Israel allowed in hundreds of aid trucks a day, while we saw videos of lardass after lardass.
All this they reported faithfully. But the grotesque spectacle of a murdered woman and her two babies (as well as an elderly man) being placed center stage at a concert-style event, while the Palestinians (not just Hamas) of all ages had a fun family day out to celebrate and mock? Nah. Crickets on that one, or outright lies about a "somber" transfer of "dead" "remains." But mostly, silence. They'll accuse Trump and Musk of killing people with administrative changes to the Federal government, but this scene, straight out of a hell that I don't think even Satan could have imagined? Nope, nothing to see here.
Even if you don't care about dead Jews, you should care that you have a media that will do this.
agree with everyone word. The Hamas-tinians - sorry they are all that - are one thing, but for AP to holdback now on calling them hostages when they are throwing hissy fits over gulf of America at the same time is unbelievable.
Hamastinians* There is no bottom to their depravity...they starve their own kids for kicks. I came across a video of a double/triple chinned woman showing a child off as proof of starvation there in Gaza...I was screaming to the phone "why does the reporter not ask why the kid is skin and bones but she is obese?"
Multiple busses. They were supposed to explode during the AM rush and the hostage release, but the bomb maker got AM and PM mixed up, so they exploded when they were parked and out of service. I shit you not.
Exactly. There is no peace with or appeasing them. Hamas knows they will be all out of hostages from 10/7 very soon..they were already planning the next round of attacks.
While listening to this episode, the phrase "The world will hate you" ran through my mind. This is something I've heard in the pews on Sunday mornings for decades and I've been more attuned to it over the past 15 or so years. When you understand "the world" specifically as the centers of power and influence in the world (which obviously includes political entities and the media), the phrase is relevant to being a right-of-center person in today's world. Even if you're not a practicing Jew or Christian, but simply agree with basic Judeo-Christian values, "the world" hates you and treats you as a threat.
I can't explain why through words, but simply acknowledging that fact has provided me with solace in recent years. Living our lives in the way that we do and practicing/defending our values won't eliminate the evil, resurrect the dead, or repair the lives that were shattered. But simply *knowing* to my very core that the people who hate us for who we are are wrong (and often evil) has made it easier for me to stay psychologically intact in the current culture.
Anyway, nothing too profound, but I just wanted to put that out there.
Yes, thank you. Even if you don’t believe in heaven, there’s a psychological reward in this world for living righteously. That’s what I was trying to convey.
I knew 15 years ago that I was unable to go along with the “liberal” program (the scare quotes are because these nimrods are anything but liberal) and there have been times since I was first red-pilled — particularly early on — when I found myself regretting that decision — regretting that I was constantly on the outside looking in, nose pressed against the glass, watching all the “cool kids” have their fun.
But I haven’t felt that way in 5 years. These maniacs have veered so far away from sanity, all I feel now is relief and pride that I never joined them.
I can honestly say that I never thought the dominant culture (news, entertainment, academia, and the intelligentsia) would make the leap from Progressive to Clinically Insane. But it has. And there seems to be no end in sight.
Back in the nineties, almost any Democrat (including Bill Clinton) would’ve told you that certain things are so obvious, they don’t need to be pointed out. One is that men can’t get pregnant. Duh. Another is that women don’t have dicks. Duh again. Another is that deliberately kidnapping and slaughtering women and babies is an act of pure, unambiguous evil. Duh x 1000.
But today? Today when you say such things out loud, you are branded a bigot, or, worse, a Republican. It is Alice in fucking Wonderland. The modern Left has fallen down a rabbit hole.
My husband was Jewish (he passed last December - this would have broken him). I was raised Catholic.
On our very first date, I brought up the "two state solution". He looked at me as though I was out of my mind. And said, "I'm Jewish. They only want me dead. Nothing more than to eliminate every Jew on Earth." Coexist is a bumper sticker.
October 7 happened, and that evening Nikki Haley said when asked about it, "finish them".
He agreed.
This afternoon I read that the coffin that was supposed to contain the mother of the children was actually someone else. Insult to injury.
I pray their souls can rest.
Now it's time to finish them.
Thank you for being one of the few journalists to keep this top of mind.
Maybe short but it was fire. My heart is so broken. Baby Kfir resembles my best friends son Yaneve so much when he was a baby. I have just read Shiri wasn't returned, and the two babies were, & clearly murdered.
End them all. All of them. Gaza is hamas and should share their fate.
The hate that you have to have in your heart to relish in the murder of babies, to insult their corpses!
Like, we often hear about "dehumanization", but usually its a cudgel to police language. Here we have people actually dehumanizing themselves with such celebratory glee over the murder of innocents. There is no tortured conscience visible in those crowds, lamenting the inescapable horror of war. No, its a party.
You can't come back from that kind of hatred. Its soul-destroying. It quite literally makes you less than human.
This is why I pay. What a fantastic monologue and perfectly summarizes my feelings on this. I'm tired of the media glamorizing evil and you speak for many of us. Thank you.
This is not to make light of the situation at all but after digesting all the media, you realize that their flimsy narrative of the Israeli airstrike doesn't comport with the giant celebration taking credit for the deaths. This is a "look what we did" display. The airstrike story is for the suckers.
Everyday for me, a new line gets crossed by the media at large in this country. I see it from a local perspective from the regional channels I watch to a national level. The degeneracy of the media and journalists is beyond outrageous. I know I'm annoying with the jailing journalists bit, but I honest to God believe it.
There is no career or job more disgusting and subhuman than that of a journalist. They continue to show us who they are, what they believe, and that they don't care what regular people think. They will lie to us, drive narratives with no consequences, and make hundreds of thousands to millions of dollars doing it.
Like Stephen said about the Red Cross, it needs to be said about journalism and mainstream media: enough. Enough with this shit. Enough with the lies, the bullshit, and the partisan hackery.
Defund these people. Bully these people. Never give them peace and remind them of the trash they are. Seize their networks and fire them. Crush their industry until it is reduced to rubble. If there is one thing and one thing only that the media and journalists share with Hamas and Palestinians - it's that we know they are beyond any kind of help or hope of changing. They are who they are.
Treat them how they should be treated. Enough with the kid gloves with these fucking monsters.
And Israel should absolutely just turn that sand pit into a glass parking lot. Stop giving a shit about what the media and ngos cry about. Safeguard your people, your religion, your heritage. Never again should mean never again.

Hated “liking” that post but well put
Shiri Bibas’s body wasn’t even returned. An awful day gets worse.
I just read that. I’m even more horrified.
The Palestinians are an unsalvageable people.
Hamastinians* There is no bottom to their depravity...they starve their own kids for kicks. I came across a video of a double/triple chinned woman showing a child off as proof of starvation there in Gaza...I was screaming to the phone "why does the reporter not ask why the kid is skin and bones but she is obese?"
And now a bus explodes in Tel Aviv. Luckily no casualties.
Multiple busses. They were supposed to explode during the AM rush and the hostage release, but the bomb maker got AM and PM mixed up, so they exploded when they were parked and out of service. I shit you not.
Good thing that the evil are often times the stupid as well.
Exactly. There is no peace with or appeasing them. Hamas knows they will be all out of hostages from 10/7 very soon..they were already planning the next round of attacks.
Savages usually are.

What a powerful ep. Thanks man. Just sent it to my Jewish wife to listen.
Very good episode.
My husband was Jewish (he passed last December - this would have broken him). I was raised Catholic.
On our very first date, I brought up the "two state solution". He looked at me as though I was out of my mind. And said, "I'm Jewish. They only want me dead. Nothing more than to eliminate every Jew on Earth." Coexist is a bumper sticker.

Thank you for being such a good friend to the Jewish people, Stephen. We truly appreciate it more than you know.
Hear hear!
The hate that you have to have in your heart to relish in the murder of babies, to insult their corpses!
Like, we often hear about "dehumanization", but usually its a cudgel to police language. Here we have people actually dehumanizing themselves with such celebratory glee over the murder of innocents. There is no tortured conscience visible in those crowds, lamenting the inescapable horror of war. No, its a party.
You can't come back from that kind of hatred. Its soul-destroying. It quite literally makes you less than human.
Something you’ll notice when you see radical Muslims going after Jews in the streets is they yell, “baby killers”. Every accusation is a confession.
This is why I pay. What a fantastic monologue and perfectly summarizes my feelings on this. I'm tired of the media glamorizing evil and you speak for many of us. Thank you.
This is not to make light of the situation at all but after digesting all the media, you realize that their flimsy narrative of the Israeli airstrike doesn't comport with the giant celebration taking credit for the deaths. This is a "look what we did" display. The airstrike story is for the suckers.
Thanks for this Stephen. I wish it could be aired on every media outlet. People need to hear it.
Raze it
Today.
Had to rewrite my comment after hearing this one.
Everyday for me, a new line gets crossed by the media at large in this country. I see it from a local perspective from the regional channels I watch to a national level. The degeneracy of the media and journalists is beyond outrageous. I know I'm annoying with the jailing journalists bit, but I honest to God believe it.
