The screenshots below show two things.

First, a private email sent by Glenn Greenwald, where he tells a Jewish recipient to “crawl out of your Sabbath hole” and watch Israeli cities being hit by Iranian missiles, followed by a link and the word “Enjoy.”

Second, his public follow up, where he frames himself as the victim of smears, denies wrongdoing, and then states plainly, “I think it’s good for the world that Israel is feeling retaliatory strikes for the wars they started.”

All the talk about innocent civilians, all the moral posturing, all the hours spent pretending this is about universal principles and human suffering, all of it collapses the second Israelis are the ones under fire. Then the mask slips, and what comes out is the truth. They never cared about innocent civilians in any consistent or serious way. They cared about using civilian suffering as a political weapon against Israel. That is a very different thing, and people should stop pretending otherwise.

Defenders of Israel spend an enormous amount of time explaining basic realities that should not need to be explained to honest people. We explain why casualty figures coming out of the Hamas-run Gaza Ministry of Health cannot simply be treated as clean, neutral civilian death tolls, especially when Hamas has every incentive to inflate, manipulate, and obscure the distinction between civilians and combatants. We explain that Hamas embeds itself in civilian areas, stores weapons in homes, schools, and mosques, launches attacks from within populated neighborhoods, and then relies on the resulting images for propaganda. We explain that Hamas built an entire terror infrastructure under Gaza while leaving its own civilians exposed above ground, because civilian vulnerability is useful to them. We explain all of this for one reason. Because if Israel were deliberately targeting innocent civilians, that would be evil, and the truth would matter.

That is what makes comments like Glenn’s so revealing. He’s not arguing that civilian suffering is tragic wherever it occurs. He’s arguing that Israeli civilians being targeted by ballistic missiles is somehow morally satisfying because he has accepted the lie that they are collectively guilty. He wants the category of civilian to apply when it can be used against Israel, and he wants it to disappear when Israelis are the ones bleeding.

And once you see that, a lot of other things come into focus. It explains why so many of these people become extremely skeptical and forensic when Israeli actions are under discussion, but suddenly become emotionless and vindictive when Israelis are murdered. It explains why every dead Gazan child is treated as a moral indictment of the Jewish people, while dead Israeli children are treated as background noise, an unfortunate detail, or in many cases a justified consequence. It explains why they spend months lecturing the world about “dehumanization” and then casually speak about Israeli families as though they are legitimate instruments of collective punishment.

You can see this everywhere if you open your eyes. Look at Arabic media comment sections after missile strikes on Israeli neighborhoods. Look at the replies on X whenever Israeli homes are hit, whenever civilians are wounded, whenever parents are filmed carrying terrified children into bomb shelters. The joy is often open, the language is genocidal and the delight is unmistakable. And what is especially telling is how often Western activists, commentators, and supposed dissidents end up converging with that same moral logic, even when they dress it up in more respectable language. They may not all sound the same stylistically, but the underlying position is identical. Israeli suffering is deserved. Israeli fear is deserved. Israeli death is deserved.

🚨 BREAKING: NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani has filled senior and mid-level roles in his administration with activists who praised ripping down Israeli hostage posters, led anti-Israel divestment campaigns, and publicly compared Israel to Nazi Germany.

Among the hires are a Brooklyn borough director who called people who destroyed hostage flyers “heroes,” advisers who organized campus movements accusing Israel of apartheid and genocide, and policy staffers who described Israeli counterterrorism as “terrorism.” One health department employee openly celebrated October 7 and said Israel amounts to “modern-day Nazi Germany.”

Several of these figures deleted social media accounts after their past statements surfaced. Others have been placed inside city agencies dealing with public health, community engagement, and policy planning.

We tried to warn you. Now our city is being taken over from within.

"Lopez had served as a member of Mamdani's inaugural committee, during which a since-deleted post on X in which he called people who ripped down flyers of Israeli hostages "heroes" raised eyebrows. "

You don’t care about Palestine.

How do I know?

One Word. Sudan.

CNN has just published a detailed, months-long investigation documenting ethnically targeted mass killings carried out by Sudan’s army and its allied militias. The reporting describes civilians being executed, bodies dumped into canals, and mass graves concealed until satellite imagery revealed wrapped corpses surfacing as the water receded. Investigators traced responsibility back to senior levels of command.

The scale is absolutely staggering. More than 150,000 civilians are believed to have been killed. Nearly 12 million people have been displaced. Entire regions are facing famine. Non-Arab communities have been targeted at checkpoints, driven from their villages, and in some cases wiped out entirely. Women interviewed by investigators described watching their children executed. Weeks later, bodies were still being carried downstream by the canals. A UN investigator quoted by CNN described the campaign as a “targeted extermination of people.”

If concern for civilian life were really the driving force behind today’s activism, Sudan would be impossible to ignore. Yet there are no campus encampments demanding action, no mass ceasefire marches, no viral influencer monologues, and no celebrities posting flags or slogans.

The usual explanation is that Israel is different because the United States supports it militarily, and that protests are really about American complicity rather than the tragedy itself. I don’t buy it. If mass killing only matters when it can be blamed on your own country, that is a deeply self-centered way of engaging with human suffering.

These same voices regularly insist that silence is complicity and that there is always something one must do, even when the odds of success are low. That principle is suddenly abandoned when Sudan comes up.

No one genuinely believes that protesting Israel under a Trump administration is likely to change Israeli policy. People protest anyway because they believe public expression itself has moral value. That logic does not disappear because the victims are Sudanese, yet it is treated as if it does.

There is also a tendency to pretend that the United States is simply powerless in Sudan, which is not true. This is not an argument for American troops on the ground, and it is reasonable to oppose that idea. But the United States is the most powerful military and diplomatic actor on the planet. If it wanted to exert serious pressure, coordinate large-scale evacuations, isolate leadership, enforce consequences, or push negotiations using the full weight of its influence, it could. Even short of military action, there are many tools available.

The reality is not that nothing can be done. It is that no one wants to do anything. Sudan does not offer the emotional payoff or political symbolism that Israel does. It does not fit neatly into Western ideological narratives, and it does not allow people to perform virtue without cost.

Sudan has everything people claim to care about: ethnic cleansing, mass graves, famine, millions of refugees, and overwhelming evidence documented by satellite imagery, whistleblowers, and international investigators. Even CNN could not soften what it found.

And still, there is silence.

That silence says far more than the slogans ever did. Your outrage is not humanitarian. It is selective, ideological, and narrowly focused on one country, while far worse atrocities are treated as background noise.

You don’t care about Palestine.

You care only about the tragedy you can blame on the Jews.

Here is the CNN investigation.

Be warned, it's quite graphic.

🚨 BREAKING: Qatar’s official Foreign Ministry spokesman, Majed Al-Ansari, once wrote that the air-raid sirens in Tel Aviv filled him with optimism and that Jews are "thirsty for blood."

Al-Ansari represents Qatar in the media as a “moderate diplomat.”

He's anything but. 🧵
1/

In 2014, during the Israel/Hamas war, Al-Ansari published an article in a Qatari government paper, praising Hamas and describing Israelis hiding from rockets as a “source of optimism.”

2/

On Gaza:

"Indeed, its enemies among its Arab neighbors seem even more thirsty for its blood than the Jews."

🚨 EXPLOSIVE: A new investigation has uncovered that Mahmood Mamdani, Columbia professor and father of NYC mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani, sits on the advisory council of the Gaza Tribunal alongside Ramy Abdu, a designated Hamas operative.

The tribunal’s recent Istanbul conference featured terror-linked speakers, including Sami Al-Arian (convicted of aiding Palestinian Islamic Jihad), Raji Sourani (former PFLP member who met Hamas leaders), and Sahar Francis, whose NGO was designated by the U.S. Treasury as a PFLP affiliate.

The Gaza Tribunal, which claims to be a human rights initiative, includes multiple former UN officials and Western academics who shared a stage with individuals tied to Hamas and other U.S.-designated terror groups.

Abdu, who sits next to Mamdani on the advisory council, is documented as having close family ties to senior Hamas operatives and once appeared in photos with Hamas leaders Ismail Haniyeh and Muhammad al-Jamassi.

This means the father of a New York mayoral candidate was advising an organization run by and featuring known terrorists, Hamas affiliates, and UN insiders.

How many more of these networks are quietly operating in Western academic and political spaces while hiding behind “human rights” rhetoric?

Will any reporter bother to ask Zohran about this?

I doubt it.

Anything to say @ZohranKMamdani?

"Ramy Abdu, who sits alongside Mahmood Mamdani on the Gaza Tribunal’s advisory council, serves as chairman of EuroMed, a Geneva-based NGO. Abdu has admitted to having close family ties to Hamas operatives."

🚨 BREAKING: Former Qatar World Cup media manager Abdullah Ibhais just exposed Qatar’s entire World Cup propaganda system.

At Play the Game 2025, Ibhais revealed that Qatar’s Supreme Committee secretly profiled journalists worldwide, tracking their social media, labeling them as friendly or problematic, and sharing those profiles with government agencies to control international coverage of the 2022 World Cup.

He said Qatar’s media strategy revolved around three words: deflect, discredit, and deny. Journalists who cooperated were rewarded with access and exclusives. Those who criticized Qatar were cut off. When that failed, the regime bypassed the press entirely and delivered its message directly to diplomats, parliaments, and football federations.

Ibhais knows this system from the inside. As the committee’s media manager, he was jailed in 2019 after refusing to cover up Qatar’s abuse of migrant workers and criticizing the regime’s handling of a labor protest. He spent years in prison on fabricated charges before being released earlier this year.

The World Cup, he said, was never just about sports. It was a $300 billion campaign to rewrite Qatar’s image while silencing dissent.

Why are “journalists” like Tucker Carlson so intent on defending this terror-funding Islamic dictatorship located thousands of miles away from the United States?

And if this is how Qatar operated during the World Cup, imagine what they’re doing now.

Watch the full talk here:

"He was accused of bribery, misuse of state funds, and leaking confidential information related to a tender process. Ibhais denied all charges, but nevertheless, he was found guilty of them in April 2021 at a Doha criminal court..."

According to Freedom House, Qatar scored 25 out of 100 on their freedom scale and is classified as "Not Free".
