Assault on Religious Freedom

It never ends, as long as their are believers, the enemy will try to destroy the faith. Our fight for truth must not waver. My concern is why does someone working at a church need or want an abortion Below is an article from “Decision Magazine.” Rh

Appellate Court Hears Case of Church Forced to Provide Employee Abortion Coverage

The U.S. Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit heard oral arguments in Cedar Park Assembly of God of Kirkland v. Kuderer, a case involving a Washington church seeking a religious exemption from a law requiring the church to provide abortion coverage to employees.

Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF) defended Cedar Park Church in the Jan. 8 hearing, during which ADF Senior Counsel Rory Gray argued that the law violates the church’s free exercise of religion. 

“The church’s religious belief is that it is facilitating abortion by covering it through the church’s plan. There is absolutely no argument otherwise that there would be no abortion coverage here but for Cedar Park seeking out an insurer, negotiating the terms and signing a contract,” Gray said during the hearing. 

The Kirkland, Washington, church provided an abortion-free health plan for church employees, but in March 2018, Democrat Gov. Jay Inslee signed Senate Bill 6219 into law, which requires employers offering maternity care coverage to also provide abortion coverage. Violators face fines and criminal penalties such as imprisonment. 

Surgical abortion coverage was added to the church’s insurance carrier health plan, in compliance with state law. 

The church, which believes all human life is valuable and should be protected from conception to natural death, has been fighting for an exemption for six years. In 2019, the church filed suit against Washington state officials, asking for an exemption from the mandate. 

The complaint argues that the law imposes a substantial burden on Cedar Park’s religious exercises while coercing the church to violate its religious beliefs, since denying mothers’ maternity care violates their religious beliefs, and there are no other insurance options they qualify for that do not require abortion coverage. 

“SB 6219 imposes a burden on Cedar Park’s ability to recruit and retain employees and places Cedar Park at a competitive disadvantage by creating uncertainty as to whether it will be able to offer group health insurance in the future,” the complaint reads. 

The case has been volleyed back and forth between courts. A district court dismissed the case. The 9th Circuit then reversed the lower court’s dismissal, with the district court responding by ruling that the church’s free-exercise rights had not been violated by the enforcement. In November 2023, Cedar Park Church appealed again to the 9th Circuit, with a three-judge panel siding with the state in March 2025 before withdrawing its opinion four months later and scheduling a rehearing.

During the Jan. 8 rehearing, Gray argued that the mandate not only violates the Free Exercise Clause but is also not neutral and not generally applicable, treating some secular institutions differently than churches on the issue of exemptions. 

“It’s unconscionable for the government to force any church to pay for abortions,” said Gray said in a press release. “The U.S. Supreme Court has affirmed that the government can’t compel religious organizations to act in violation of their sincerely held faith convictions. Cedar Park, which celebrates and protects life from conception to natural death, has fought long enough to practice what it preaches, and we are urging the court to finally resolve the matter and rule in favor of religious freedom.”

Supreme Court Hears Arguments on Trans Athletes

The question before the Supreme Court is essentially this, is there a difference in boys vs. girls.  Most with just an average intelligence would say yes, of course.  But the high minded intelligence of the liberal mind is not able to understand the question and most certainly not give an answer.  Our latest Biden appointee to the Supreme Court, when asked by a senator “what is a woman”, did not know. 

I am blabbergasted and dismayed  that in the year 2026, with all the knowledge that we have accumulated, that even having the discussion on what is a woman, is not grounds for dismissal from any and all positions in our government!

BELOW are a couple of Justice Thomas questions to the ACLU lawyer before the hearing at the Supreme Court.

  • Justice Thomas sprung a killer question on the ACLU lawyer: “What remedy are you seeking?” Strangio, flummoxed by such a seemingly simple question said an injunction. Justice Thomas then asked “practically, you would get different treatment based on sex?” and the trap was laid.
  • Strangio said the plaintiff (a girl who identifies as a boy) would be allowed to get drugs for “a typical male puberty” despite having a “birth sex [of] female.” That answer made clear that girls who identify as boys would get a right under the Constitution to testosterone, but boys who identify as boys would not, which is…sex discrimination!  Genius.

So much for equal protection under the law.

The Luciferian radical leftist desire is to feminize the male population.  Destroy the American family and sow seeds of chaos.  Simply put ever since the fall in the Garden of Eden mankind has been in a questioning mode against the absolute authority of Almighty God.  If they so even believe in a higher power, which most don’t.  

Liberal white females are the root of much of this problem.  Their disdain and outright contempt for the male species has caused a  rebellion against males in general, and in particular the order of God’s creation. But let’s not negate the stupidity of liberal males in government, in particular the august mentality of the Governor of Minnesota who puts feminine hygiene products in the boys bathrooms, or men who claim to breast feed their bought and paid for new babies.  The mental gymnastics, or should I say the mental instability involved is astonishing.

Let’s put this in perspective: a quick trip to a mental health professional could have solved this whole problem long ago. But alas, it was not so. 

Listen to Serena Williams explain it:

“Men’s & women’s tennis are completely different sports. If I played Andy Murray, I’d lose 6-0, 6-0 in 5 minutes….It’s true.

He would kill me. Men are a lot faster, serve harder, & hit harder. I only want to play girls.”

As a father to daughters who played sports, one an NAIA softball player, I can tell you I am all in on women’s sports, but not against men, nor am I for trans of any kind sharing bathrooms, showers or sports.  The differences between men and women are a wonderful thing.  Together we are better for it.  Hmmm….God said the “two shall become one.”  Once again God was right!

Qatar is biggest foreign funder of US colleges, per Education Department

“Every single dollar given by our adversaries comes with strings attached,” Rep. Tim Walberg told JNS. “Enough is enough.”

AARON BANDLER jns.org

It’s not Israel that’s influencing US policy, it’s the Muslim and Arab world through big payments to our institutions of higher learner. That money comes with big strings attached. Now you know why collage age young people rally for Palestinians. They believe the lie and propaganda. Rh

Jan. 8, 2026 / JNS)

Qatar has been the largest source of foreign funding for U.S. higher education institutions, according to data displayed in a new U.S Department of Education portal.

The portal, which went live on Jan. 2, explains that, under Section 117 of the Higher Education Act of 1965, federally funded universities are required to disclose, twice annually, any gifts and contracts from a foreign source that are worth at least $250,000 in a calendar year.

Rep. Tim Walberg (R-Mich.), chair of the House Education and Workforce Committee, told JNS that “our college campuses are being flooded with foreign cash, but every single dollar given by our adversaries comes with strings attached.”

“America’s adversaries exploit these financial ties to steal research, spread divisive propaganda, push indoctrination and undermine free speech,” Walberg said. 

“Enough is enough,” he added. “The Trump administration is making the reporting of foreign funds easier and more transparent so we can protect our students and the integrity of American education.”

Kenneth Marcus, chairman and CEO of the Louis D. Brandeis Center for Human Rights Under Law and a former assistant U.S. secretary of education for civil rights, told JNS that he’s “glad that the Trump administration is bringing greater transparency to the enormous amount of foreign money that’s coming into our higher education system.”

According to the dashboard, Qatar was the source of around $6.6 billion to U.S. universities, followed by Germany ($4.4 billion), England ($4.3 billion), China ($4.1 billion), Canada ($4 billion) and Saudi Arabia ($3.9 billion).

Of the schools that received funds from Qatar, Cornell University topped the list with $2.3 billion, followed by Carnegie Mellon University ($1 billion), Texas A&M University ($992.8 million) and Georgetown University ($971.1 million).

“In particular, this portal already shows huge amounts coming in from Qatar,” Marcus told JNS. “It is hard to imagine that this amount of money doesn’t imply some amount of influence, and it’s fair to ask what kind of influence Qatar is obtaining in exchange for its money.”

Overall, the data shows that the value of contracts and gifts from all foreign countries has been $62.4 billion to 527 U.S. colleges and universities.

Brandy Shufutinsky, director of the education and national security program at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies, told JNS that she has questions about the data, such as whether universities are required to report the specific funding entities within a country.

“For example, if an international non-governmental organization or governmental department gave funds to an American university, does that university have to disclose the name of that NGO or governmental department?” she said. (JNS sought comment from the Education Department.)

She also asked whether the portal provides information on how foreign funding is used.

“The idea for the portal should not only be to increase transparency around Section 117, but to allow users to truly understand the level of foreign funding and influence taking place in the American higher education system,” Shufutinsky said.

Linda McMahon, U.S. education secretary, stated that “after years of neglect by the Biden administration, the new portal will assist our institutions of higher education in fulfilling their statutory responsibilities and enable us to protect our national security by facilitating improved compliance.”

According to the portal, Yeshiva University in New York has received $1,097,897 in foreign funding, and Rabbinical College Bobover Yeshiva Bnei Zion in New York received $1.5 million. Both received foreign funding solely from Canadian sources. Yeshiva had three such gifts and the rabbinical college had two.

The Michigan Jewish Institute, a Chabad-affiliated organization in the Detroit area, received a single $250,000 contract from an Israeli source between 2011 and 2013, according to the portal. The institute shuttered in March 2016.

The portal reported a total of $62,4 billion total disclosures to the Education Department up until Jan. 31, 2025, including 117,152 total reports from 194 countries to 527 U.S. colleges and universities.

Brandeis University, which “is animated by a set of values that are rooted in Jewish history and experience,” was listed in the portal as having received $7,816,216 in foreign funding in 17 transactions from the United Nations ($3.9 million), Malaysia ($1.4 million), Hong Kong ($821,000), United Kingdom ($570,000), France ($420,000), Canada ($405,000) and Switzerland ($250,000).

About half of the funding for Brandeis came from restricted contracts (55.9%) and 30.1% were gifts and 14% were restricted gifts.

According to the most recent disclosure file, dated Feb. 28, 2025, Israel had 1,323 transactions for a total of $419,454,891.24 to about 105 institutions. The largest three were contracts to Brigham Young University: $7 million in 2018, $6.5 million in 2020 and $5.2 million in 2019

Pro-Family Coalition Urges Executive Order To Protect Religious Freedom Of Christian Parents

A pro-family, pro-child coalition urged the Trump administration this week to issue an executive order protecting parental rights and the religious freedom of Christian parents and foster parents.

The proposed order, which the coalition workshopped with the White House Domestic Policy Council on Wednesday, would:

  • Explicitly affirm parents’ constitutional right to raise their children according to their religious beliefs.
  • Repeal federal foster care rules preventing or obstructing people who affirm biological sex from becoming foster parents.
  • Prohibit organizations from using federal funds to remove children from parents who do not affirm same-sex attraction or sexual identity confusion.
  • Remove federal funding from organizations which help children conceal sexual identity confusion from their parents.

These four recommendations would prevent federal and state governments from unconstitutionally withholding adoption and foster care licenses from Christians or taking children with sexual identity confusion away from loving, Christian parents.

States like Colorado, Massachusetts, Vermont, Oregon, Washington and Californiarequire prospective foster parents to affirm a child’s same-sex attraction and sexual identity confusion.

In 2024, the Department of Health and Human Services released regulations giving progressive, “gender affirming” foster care placement organizations privileged status over biology-affirming ones.

Policies like these prevent people like Jessica BatesBryan and Rebecca GanttBrian and Katy Wuoti and Mike and Kitty Burkes from fostering or adopting some of the estimated 400,000 children in the U.S. foster care system.

Parents in many states can also lose custody of their children for failure to affirm their same-sex attraction or sexual identity confusion.

The Indiana Department of Child Services took custody of Mary and Jeremy Cox’s 16-year-old son after the couple refused to affirm his “transgender identity.” A court eventually found the Cox’s had not abused their son — but the state never gave him back.

He remained in the department’s care to receive treatment for an eating disorder which had worsened while he was away from home.

The Coxes are just one of innumerable heartbreaking examples of state agencies taking children from loving parents who affirm biological. Erin Friday, one of the coalition leaders who met with the White House on Wednesday, says the number of families in this situation far exceeds most people’s expectations.

“The public is unaware that children are being kidnapped by child protective services and family judges because these cases are usually sealed or there are confidentiality laws that prevent parents from going public,” she told The Daily Signal.

Christian parents need not have their child taken to suffer under child protective agencies’ scrutiny.

Erin Lee received an unexpected visit from the Colorado Department of Human Services after she tried to hold her daughter’s public school accountable for secretly teaching gender ideology.

“We managed to evade losing our children that day, but I’ve met many parents who weren’t so lucky,” Lee, who eventually saved her daughter from damaging sexual identity confusion, told the Daily Wire.

She continued: “I also had a six-year-old and an infant at the time and I shudder to think that I could have lost all three of my kids for being a good parent, for being unwilling to lie to my daughter and send her down a path of self-hatred and destruction.”

Laws and policies penalizing Christian parents and prospective foster parents for questioning “gender affirming care” are increasingly ludicrous given the mounting evidence proving sex-rejecting procedures harm minors.

The Department of Health and Human Services’ own, peer-reviewed report found “transgender” medical interventions — including puberty blockers, wrong-sex hormones and surgeries — pose “significant, long term and too often ignored” harms to children.

It’s about time America’s foster care systems reflect reality.


It is time to return to Biblical and moral values in America. We were founded on religious freedom and no blue state socialists who wishes to destroy the family unit and push immorality should be allowed to do so. Protect religious freedom and pro life, Mr President. That is what I voted for and what you said you would do! Rh

A Strong Delusion

“And for this reason God will send them strong delusion, that they should believe the lie,”

‭‭II Thessalonians‬ ‭2‬:‭11‬ ‭NKJV‬

Just this morning I was watching a Telegram post by the sister-in-law of Tony Blair.  She was waxing poetic on the beauties of Islam.   Are you serious?  Talk of a strong delusion.  She continued, “because of the attack on Israel on October 7th the beauty of Allah and Islam is being shown to the world.”  She further stated that “October 7th was a legendary day in history, people are picking up the Quran because of the steadfastness of the people of Gaza to find the beauty in the Quran.  How many people will accept Islam because of this, only Allah knows.”  And on and on with the delusion, “be strong and steadfast and carry on the struggle.”  She concluded

People can believe what they want, but to call Islam a religion of peace when killing and raping is the modus aparendi of the faithful?  

What of the sign from gender confused youth who support the Palestinian cause carrying flags and marching in the streets.  Do they not realize they would be stoned or thrown off buildings for this lifestyle in most countries in the Middle East?  Apparently not.

A strong demonic spirit of delusion has gripped the world.  From gender confusions to religions of a death cult, to believing Israel controls the world etc.  It is the spirit of anti-christ invading the world by leaps and bounds.  Evil will continue in these last days we live in.  Truth will become a precious commodity. Guard it well. 

“For our transgressions are multiplied before You, And our sins testify against us; For our transgressions are with us, And as for our iniquities, we know them: In transgressing and lying against the Lord, And departing from our God, Speaking oppression and revolt, Conceiving and uttering from the heart words of falsehood. Justice is turned back, And righteousness stands afar off; For truth is fallen in the street, And equity cannot enter. So truth fails, 

‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭59‬:‭12‬-‭15‬a ‭NKJV‬‬

“Sanctify them by Your truth. Your word is truth.”

‭‭John‬ ‭17‬:‭17‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

Truth has a name and it’s name is Jesus!

Fake Conservatives

Excellent post on X by David Limbaugh, brother of the late Rush Limbaugh. This has always been my concerns as well. Please take a read. Rh

David Limbaugh 

I try not to make politics personal too often (though I know I sometimes fail). But one thing that gets under my skin is people who either a) pretended to be conservative and cultivated a wide following and then dramatically changed their tune, or b) were ACTUALLY conservative and later changed — without admitting they’ve changed but instead still claim the conservative banner under which to peddle their new poison. This confuses the H out of their naive or ignorant followers and damages the conservative brand and long-respected conservative institutions.

A particularly egregious version of this is when purportedly conservative Christians now promote (overtly or subtly) antisemitism, and slander Israel – often denying their animus and saying their focus is purely based on disagreements with Israeli policies and actions. Many of these people have also adopted and advocated some utterly bizarre historical and political opinions apart from antisemitism, which causes even further confusion.

I’ll add that many of the people doing this, as part of a cynical calculation, are playing to younger audiences and those with grievances and looking for someone to blame. Common sense, tradition, and especially the Bible frown upon corrupting, confusing or leading youth astray. I could cite the Scriptures but the cynics would just say they’re not applicable to this situation – and they can believe that all they want.

So much of this has become personal. And those of us defending conservatism and standing up for the Jewish people are not the ones who have made this personal. I don’t apologize for being personally repulsed by what’s going on.

I leave open the possibility that some purveyors of this toxicity may actually be out of their minds or unwittingly under evil influences (though the latter’s hard to believe), but even if that’s the case, they deserve to be called out too. The stakes are too high. We have a country to save. We have values in which we believe and try to live by. These are strong, bright red lines we must draw.

As to those to whom any of the above applies, why don’t you just admit you have animus for Israel and/or Jews? Why don’t you admit you have become political liberals in the name of conservatism? If you’ll just come out in the open and admit who you are and what you’re about, we can fight you openly and the public can make informed choices. I happen to believe truth and decency will win in the end, but first we need to call out the deceit.

Sorry if this sounds harsh, but it’s the way I see much of what’s going on “inside” the conservative movement.

The Remnant Church – Shifts & Divisions 2026

Good morning and God bless each and everyone who follows my blog or reads the content.  We are entering into a most divisive and profound year, (IMO). As I look forward to the new year I see two rivers running side by side.  One is righteous, because of the blood of Jesus, the other one is evil filled with the influence of the spirit of anti-christ. The other gospel is one of false hope, prosperity and a God of love that winks at our sin. Compromises the authority and inerrancy of the Gospel. Paul spoke clearly about this in the book of Galatians. “But even if we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel to you than what we have preached to you, let him be accursed.”

‭‭Galatians‬ ‭1‬:‭8‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

Division in the church is not new, however I sense in my spirit it will become profound in the coming year.  We are ripe for the Holy Spirit to divide sheep from the goats.  The Church, as a whole, is confounded by the purity of the Gospel.  Another gospel is being preached. One of love, not holiness, one of acceptance not dedication, one of peace and prosperity when we are in time of war, (Spiritual War) is upon us.

Limp wristed tip toe through the tulips watered down Christianity is a stench in the nostrils of a Holy God.  “Because you say, ‘I am rich, have become wealthy, and have need of nothing’—and do not know that you are wretched, miserable, poor, blind, and naked— I counsel you to buy from Me gold refined in the fire, that you may be rich; and white garments, that you may be clothed, that the shame of your nakedness may not be revealed; and anoint your eyes with eye salve, that you may see.”

‭‭Revelation‬ ‭3‬:‭17‬-‭18‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

Hebrews 12:14b “without holiness no one will see the Lord.”  A remnant of holiness will mark the true church in 2026.

  • Not “without love.”
  • Not “without good vibes.”
  • Not “without sincerity.”
  • Without holiness.
  • Because love is God’s gift to us, but holiness is our response to Him.
  • Holiness is “more than praying a standard prayer” repentance means change of heart
  • Cross not crowns
  • Holiness draws a line in the sand against sin
  • Love invites you to cross it.
  • Holiness requires you to change as you cross.

Daniel 11:32b “but the people who know their God shall be strong, and carry out great exploits.”  Knowing God brings intimate knowledge that empowers His people to do extraordinary, courageous acts for His glory,

The fire of the Holy Spirit will burn the chaff from our lives, it will cause a fire breathed anointing to the remnant church.  A “Holy” desire that brings us into the Lord’s presence.  The word remnant is only used twice for Israel in the New Testament, but never for the Church.  Awake and arise church, let us take our rightful place ruling and reigning with Christ in the heavenly places in the spirit realm. “and raised us up together, and made us sit together in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus,” Ephesians 2:6

‭Intercession and repentance that leads to holiness will be the standard for the remnant church in 2026.  Will you join me? 

Live in His Word, and Walk in His Spirit

Prayer Alert

Morning prayer warriors!

Urgent need for prayer today.  It seems our President and his administration are making deals with the devil, and no one can do that without getting burnt.  Much on my mind as I see a crumbling of foundational support for Israel and a cozying up to the Arab and Muslims in the MIddle East.  Prayer points below.

  • Worldwide intifada (various attacks here in the US, Australia, France, Germany). Devil knows his time is short.
  • Wisdom for Trump.(he needs a true spiritual advisor)
  • Deal making with the sponsor of terror. (Qatar)
  • Saudi Arabia is pushing for a two state solution.  (Blowback on America if done)
  • Peace commission (10 members) most anti Israel.
  • Trump’s pride getting in the way.  (God’s plan??)
  • Trump & Vance telling not asking Israel to stop settlements in Judea & Samaria.
  • Syria (next hotspot)??

I could go on and on, I see dangerous times for the US if we get in bed with the Islamist.  We seem to have pushed investments over the covenant for peace. We must never forget God’s eternal covenant with Abraham.  (My opinion)

God is sovereign!  I am not hopeless, but hopeful!  The blessed hope!  Two rivers flowing side by side, one righteous (God is moving) another evil.  Let’s ask for spiritual rain for the righteous river to overflow.  I sense this is a particular Kronos time.  Rh

Culture War In the West

Here is an excellent article to better understand why the globalists are working with leftist/communists to destroy America.  They should all go somewhere else and start their own country.  LOL.

https://www.zerohedge.com/political/key-understanding-cult-globalisms-war-west

here are some excerpts….

The culture war in the western world is currently hitting a crescendo. At first the media said it was all “conspiracy theory” being amplified by a “fringe minority” of radical right wingers. Then, they admitted the conflict was real but claimed that conservatives were monsters trying to “dismantle democracy”. Today, the culture war has become the dominant issue of our age with the debate echoing through the halls of the White House.

Leftists hoped they could make it all go away by dismissing it. They hoped they could continue with their ideological takeover at their leisure. They failed.  The rebellion in the US is a product of decades of effort by liberty advocates and it is finally bearing fruit.

The key to understanding the globalist war on the west is first to recognize that a conspiracy of “elites” is a hard, irrefutable fact. Second, we must accept that war has been declared on us and this war is one of total conquest. We are not allowed to live separately and peacefully, our very existence is seen as a threat to the establishment. Third, globalists view western culture as antithetical to their future aims. Globalism cannot prevail as long as western ideals exist.

Finally, as noted, most of the world is against us whether they know it or not. Even old allies in Europe are becoming enemies. Import masses of third worlders into America and they don’t become American, America becomes the third world. Import millions of socialists into the US and the US becomes increasingly socialist. This is very simple to understand, but leftists (and some libertarians) refuse to acknowledge the truth.

Not all cultures are equal.  Some are better than others.  It’s fascinating how liberals continue to pretend as if different nations and cultures don’t produce tribes that are contrary to each other. We are not the same and natural coexistence is a myth.  Coexistence of such groups is created through intimidation, extortion and force.  The liberal Utopian ideal of multiculturalism requires oppressive centralization and tyranny.

Globalism is the mechanism by which total and eternal oligarchy is achieved. They use open borders, mass immigration, woke cultism, economic crisis, international conflagration, engineered pandemics, anything you can think of and more to tear their enemies down. We are their enemy. We didn’t choose this fight, they did, and they will continue changing strategies until they find one that works (or until we end their little experiment).

Doha Forum

Doha, the world capital of the Muslim Brotherhood and the ATM of Hamas, is opening this weekend its annual Terror Laundering Gala, the Doha Forum.

On stage, under crystal chandeliers

• Ahmad al Sharaa – former Al Qaeda commander who drowned Syria in blood, now scrubbed and airbrushed as “Mr President.”

• Jawad Zarif – foreign minister of Iran’s terror regime

• Hakan Fidan – Erdogan’s Islamist enforcer

All beaming for Al-Jazeera, the global megaphone of the Muslim Brotherhood.

A brief reminder of the terror money trail

• Hundreds of millions to Al Qaeda in Syria

• Hundreds of millions of dollars every year to the Taliban through Doha banks

• Qatari “charities” caught funneling money to Al Shabaab

• More than two billion dollars to Hamas

And who flies in to bless this spectacle

• Tucker Carlson – Mr. “I’m just asking questions,” the man who described Hamas jihadists as a “political party” and wondered “what is so bad about Sharia,” now arriving with his entourage to bow before Qatar’s prime minister on stage.

CNN star Christiane Amanpour and Francesca Albanese – Sunday preachers of human rights, Monday hostesses for every blood-soaked Islamist foreign minister on earth

In the end, just as in Tolkien’s epic, the real question floating above the hall is not political. It is the oldest moral test known to humanity

Can a person refuse the temptation of power, money, and prestige when they are offered in the service of evil?

In Doha, this test is not merely failed, it is celebrated!

The self-proclaimed Syrian president Ahmad Al-Shar’a told the Doha Forum that “terrorism” is often politicized, insisting that real terror is the killing of innocents – from Gaza’s alleged 60,000 victims, to the millions displaced in Syria, and the countless civilians lost in Iraq and Afghanistan.

It seems the perfume he received at the Oval Office didn’t work its magic. To this former Al-Qaeda commander, the rape, slaughter, and kidnapping of Israeli civilians do not qualify as terrorism. Only when Israel defends itself does he suddenly remember the word.

Syria’s ISIS terrorist President Abu Mohammed Al Julani Says the US and Israel Are The Real Terrorists, Not Him, Not Al Qaeda, and Not ISIS

During the Doha Forum yesterday, Syria’s new “president,” the former leader of al-Qaeda and ISIS in Syria whose real name is Abu Mohammed Al-Julani, praised his fallen commanders and declared, “We saw wars in Afghanistan, in Iraq; all those who were killed were innocent.”

He said Al Qaeda is innocent.

He then went on to claim that the United States is the real terrorist organization in an attempt to justify that he and his group are not terrorists.

Forwarded from Amir Tsarfati.

And Saudi Arabia weighs in.

Ex-Saudi intel chief: “In my view, it is Israel now that is the troublemaker and should be reigned in…”

Asked which is a greater threat to regional stability during an onstage interview at the Milken Institute’s Middle East and Africa Summit in Abu Dhabi yesterday, Saudi Prince Turki Al Faisal responded: “For the moment, definitely it is Israel. We’ve seen that Iran has been dealt a strong hand by the US,” he said, apparently referencing Washington’s strike on Iran’s nuclear facilities. Prince Turki, who as a prominent member of the Saudi royal family, remains influential in Riyadh even after leaving government.

“Events in Lebanon with the diminishing of Hezbollah and the change of the regime in Syria have obviously affected Iran’s ability to affect and influence events in the broader Middle East,” he continued. “Israel is feeling its oats by bombing Syria on almost a daily basis, continuing to bomb Palestinians — whether in Gaza or the West Bank and also in Lebanon, where there’s supposed to be a ceasefire,” Prince Turki said.

“That is definitely not a harbinger of peace in our part of the world. In my view, it is Israel now that is the troublemaker and should be reigned in,” he said.

Understand why I say it does no good to make deals with treacherous regimes. They will continually move the goal posts. They are who they are and will do whatever they can get away with. Remember Qatar was funding Hamas, when asked if they would help rebuild Gaza, they said no, they (Qatar)did not destroy Gaza. No but your terror proxy was responsible. Rh
