SCOTT JENNINGS: The despicable truth about the explosion of terrorism in America... that liberals will never dare say
Amid the Left's hysterical cries over imagined fascism, totalitarianism and Nazism, there's a real war for the future of Western civilization that's raging under their noses, yet they refuse to acknowledge it.
On Sunday in Boulder, Colorado, peaceful marchers demanding the release of hostages held by Hamas were targeted by an illegal immigrant wielding a makeshift flamethrower, hurling Molotov cocktails and shouting 'Free .'

Keir Starmer faces calls for stronger line on Gaza
Sir Keir Starmer is facing pressure from some of his own MPs to take further action against Israel over what they say is a genocide in prime minister's questions, Sir Keir described the situation in Gaza as "appalling and intolerable" and repeated calls for a added that further actions against Israel will be considered, including his words were not enough to satisfy opposition critics and left-wing Labour MPs, who are calling on the government to take stronger action against Benjamin Netanyahu and his ministers. It comes after aid distribution centres in Gaza were closed for the day, with the Israeli military warning roads leading to the sites will be considered "combat zones".At least 27 Palestinians were killed by Israeli fire close to a distribution centre on Tuesday, according to the Hamas-run Civil Defence Agency. The Israel Defence Forces say its troops fired shots after identifying suspects who moved towards them "deviating from the designated access routes".The UK's Middle East Minister Hamish Falconer faced the anger of backbench Labour MPs - many of whom were wearing red "stop arming Israel" badges - in the House of said he was "appalled" by Palestinians being killed when trying to access aid sites, adding: "We call for an immediate and independent investigation into these events for the perpetrators to be held to account."He added: "Israel's unjustified block on aid into Gaza needs to end - it is inhumane."Israel must immediately allow the United Nations and aid partners to safely deliver all types of aid at scale to save lives, reduce suffering and maintain dignity." Labour MP Rosena Allin-Khan called for Mr Netanyahu and "the other murderous figures who are responsible" to be sanctioned. "Words are not enough," she said, as she called for a date for when the government would impose restrictions on MP Paula Barker said the history books "will not be kind" to the government unless action is taken."What more evidence do we need to call this exactly what it is? A deliberate policy of annexation and genocide," she call for the government to acknowledge that Israel is committing genocide in Gaza was echoed by a number of said he understood their frustrations, and promised further action if the UK could not persuade the Israeli government to "change course".He added that it was a matter for a "competent court to determine".Israel says it is working to destroy the Palestinian armed group Hamas and get back hostages they have taken. It has strongly denied allegations of genocide, claims which are also being examined by the International Court of government is also facing calls to "urgently" recognise the state of Palestine - including from Conservative MP and former attorney general Sir Jeremy Jeremy told MPs he he had changed his mind the timeframe for such a move - traditionally seen as being part of a "two-state solution" - over the rhetoric coming from the Israeli government. 'Desperately needed aid' During the debate, protesters gathered outside Parliament to demand the end of arms sales to Israel, something that was repeatedly echoed by MPs, including former Labour leader Jeremy MP, who now sits as an independent, is calling for a public inquiry to uncover what he called the "murky history of what's gone on, the murky arms sales and the complicity in appalling acts of genocide".He has tabled a draft bill to set up an inquiry to examine the "any UK military, economic or political cooperation" with Israel, with powers to question ministers and bill is backed by prominent left-wing Labour MPs including Diane Abbott and Richard Burgon, four independent MPs, two Greens and members of Plaid Cymru and the SNP. It has been scheduled for debate on 4 July, but is unlikely to become law without government was among the MPs calling for a total embargo on the sale of arms to Israel - including parts for F-35 fighter Falconer said the UK had already taken steps to "ensure that weapons directly for use in Gaza have been suspended," and had stopped supplying F-35 parts "directly to Israel".But he said the UK would continue to supply parts to the "global pool" of F-35 spares, as this was needed to help "the defence of Nato allies" and support the Ukraine war it was put to him that Ukraine did not use F-35s, he said the planes were needed for the redeployment of F-15s, which were used in the fight against Corbyn and other critics insist the government's explanations lack credibility and they must know that the parts are being used to attack Palestinians in Lib Dems are also urging a tougher stance from the government on prime minster's questions, Sir Ed Davey urged Keir Starmer to "push at the UN Security Council for humanitarian corridors to get the desperately needed aid urgently into Gaza".Sir Keir said that the government is "working at pace with our allies on that very issue, to take whatever measures we can to get that humanitarian aid in".Israel launched its military campaign in Gaza in response to Hamas' cross-border attack on 7 October 2023, in which about 1,200 people were killed and 251 others were taken least 54,607 people have been killed in Gaza since then, including 4,335 since Israel resumed its offensive on 18 March, according to the territory's health ministry.

Grieving father of murdered Israeli embassy worker fights tears as he gives first interview since slaying
The family of Sarah Milgrim, one of the Israeli embassy staffers shot to death outside the Capital Jewish Museum, held back tears as they described how strong she was. Sarah's parents, Robert and Nancy, and her older brother, Jacob, granted CBS News their first interview since last month's gruesome terrorist attack in Washington, D.C., which also took the life of Sarah's boyfriend, Yaron Lischinsky. 'Usually, a parent tries to mold their child. Sarah molded us,' Robert Milgrim said. 'She was a stronger person than I ever was.' 'I told Nancy after this happened that I'm a different person now than before this happened, from learning so much about what Sarah did and her courage and her striving for peace,' he said. Sarah, 26, and Lischinsky, 30, were shot and killed while leaving a diplomatic event focused on how to get more aid into Gaza, the Palestinian region Israel invaded after Hamas killed nearly 1,200 Israeli civilians on October 7, 2023. 'She wasn't against the Palestinians. She wasn't against the people in Gaza. She was in all her heart working towards finding a way for everyone to live together peacefully,' her mother, Nancy Milgrim, revealed to CBS News. The suspected shooter, 30-year-old Elias Rodriguez, allegedly fired 21 shots at the couple, who was due to be engaged the following week. During his arrest, Rodriguez was hauled away while shouting: 'Free, free Palestine,' as he squirmed against the officers' grip. President Donald Trump and Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu condemned the shooting, which was described by law enforcement as 'targeted.' Rodriguez, who has been shown to have negative feelings toward Israel in leaked texts, has been charged with two counts of first-degree murder. The Milgrim family sat down with CBS two weeks after the May 21 attack to tell the world her story. Robert Milgrim described Sarah as the 'perfect child,' adding that they never argued about anything. 'She loved the environment, loved mother earth. She loved people. She loved family. She loved her community,' Robert said. Sarah made several trips to Israel in her life. The first was for her bat mitzvah in Jerusalem, and she would return again while she was in college. She went back a third time after she joined Tech2Peace, a work-study program for both Israelis and Palestinians. Sarah began working for the Israeli Embassy in Washington, D.C. in November 2023 after she graduated with a master's degree in International Affairs from nearby American University. She met Lischinsky while studying at the private university, known for its focus on politically-focused degrees. 'We saw their love blossom for each other. And we knew how strong it was,' Sarah's father said. The Milgrims weren't aware Lischinsky was set to propose to Sarah until after they heard so from the Israeli ambassador to the United States, Yechiel Leiter. 'The young man purchased a ring this week with the intention of proposing next week in Jerusalem,' Leiter said shortly after the shooting. Sarah's mother also later learned from a friend that her daughter had gone ring shopping to give Lischinsky tips on what she wanted. The Milgrim family also commented on the rising tide of antisemitism in the US following the October 7 attacks. On Sunday, a man threw Molotov cocktails at peaceful pro-Israel protestors who were marching at the outdoor Pearl Street Mall in Boulder, Colorado, to honor the Israeli hostages still being held by Hamas. Twelve people were injured in the attack allegedly perpetrated by Mohamed Sabry Soliman, 45, who was arrested and charged with a federal hate crime. Milgrim's older brother, Jacob, called this type of violence senseless. 'There is nothing more important in Judaism than life and the sanctity of life — and to what end is this fighting and does it accomplish?' he said in the interview. 'Taking my sister ... it's not going to accomplish anything.' The Milgrims are now left grieving and unsure how to cope with Sarah's death. 'Right now, I'm hurt. I'm too hurt to say it's anger or frustration. I don't know what I'm going to feel later on, to be honest with you,' her father said. The Milgrim family plans to visit Israel in the fall to meet with Lischinsky's family and visit his grave.

US economic activity declines as tariffs pressure prices, Fed says
June 4 (Reuters) - U.S. economic activity has declined and higher tariff rates have put upward pressure on costs and prices in the weeks since Federal Reserve policymakers last met to set interest rates, the U.S. central bank said on Wednesday in its latest snapshot of the nation's economy. "On balance, the outlook remains slightly pessimistic and uncertain, unchanged relative to the previous report," according to the document, known as the "Beige Book" and which is based on surveys, interviews and observations collected from the commercial and community contacts of each of the Fed's 12 regional banks through May 23. "There were widespread reports of contacts expecting costs and prices to rise at a faster rate going forward." The Fed has kept its policy rate in the current 4.25%-4.50% range since December and is widely expected to leave it there for another few months while its policymakers gauge the impact of U.S. President Donald Trump's trade and other policies on inflation and the labor market. With the impact so far not obvious in the government's regular monthly reports, Fed officials say they are putting a premium on more timely data, including the day-to-day experiences of businesses and households like those captured in the Beige Book and which suggest widespread, if uneven, impact from Trump's tariffs. In January, all 12 Fed districts reported economic growth; the latest report showed just three did, while half reported economic declines. Meanwhile most districts reported employment as "flat." The Personal Consumption Expenditures Price Index rose just 2.1% in April from a year earlier, the lowest reading in four years and just a hair above the Fed's 2% inflation target. Economists expect data due on Friday to show U.S. employers added 130,000 jobs last month, down from 177,000 in April but still above the 100,000 or so thought to be adequate for a healthy labor market. Analysts say they anticipate both the inflation and the labor market data to deteriorate, and the Beige Book suggests it is happening to some degree. Other survey-based data show that deterioration as well, including an Institute for Supply Management report earlier on Wednesday that showed the service sector contracted in May for the first time in a year, and businesses paid more for inputs. The specter of slowing growth and accelerating inflation poses a particular dilemma for the Fed, which can only fight one of those problems at a time.
