Poll: Majority of Palestinian YouthsSupport Knife Attacks on Israelis

Two-thirds of Gazans polled said the attacks serve the Palestinian cause.

A new survey released on Monday shows that a majority of young Palestinians support knife attacks that target Israelis. Respondents said that the knife attacks "serve" their "cause."
The Jerusalem Media and Communication Center poll, carried out across the West Bank, Gaza Strip and East Jerusalem in April, indicated that 58 percent of Palestinians between the ages of 15 and 29 supported stabbings to one degree or another, but Gazans backed it significantly more than did their West Bank counterparts.
There were some geographic differences in the survey findings. "Over three-quarters of Gazans — 78.6% of the 365 polled — said they strongly or somewhat support knife attacks against Israelis, whereas 46.4% of West Bank residents expressed similar sentiments."
A little more than one-third (38%) of young Palestinians said they opposed the stabbings, with differences among youths in Gaza (21%) and the West Bank (41%.)
One in five youths say the stabbings are detrimental to the "Palestinian cause. "
Two-thirds of Gazans polled said the attacks serve the Palestinian cause, while just 40% of West Bank residents said the same. Only 21% of the total number of young Palestinians polled said the stabbings, which have persisted since October, are detrimental to the Palestinian cause.
There is little optimism that diplomacy will resolve the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. "The majority polled (67%) said diplomacy wouldn’t resolve the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, and a similar amount (69.2%) said Israelis and Palestinians couldn’t solve the conflict on their own, nor should like-minded Israeli and Palestinian activists work together to end the conflict (64.3%)."
The poll has a margin of error of 3%.

Report: Child-Rape on the Rise Among Syrian Migrants in Greece, Europe

Tell us again, Obama, about the new three-month vetting process.

Syrian migrants have been wreaking havoc in migrant camps and their surrounding neighborhoods all across the Eurozone. Reports of riots, looting, burning, assault and battery, molestation and worst of all child-rape, abound.
In fact, the latter scourge is reportedly on the rise in Greek migrant camps, according toBreitbart
Greek authorities are investigating after numerous reports of extreme violence and sex assault among the migrants living in the shanty town established among the abandoned former Athens International Airport. [...]
The initial arrival of the young men means they have had time to establish themselves in the new camps. A report by The Times quotes an Afghan father of five who said of the new camps: “It’s like the Wild West there… I’m not going back. Neither are my children”.
Relocations started after a 17-year-old Afghan boy was stabbed to death in Athens, where both the victim and attacker were Ellinikon residents, but reports from the inside of the camp suggest a sinister web of child rape where fear rules. [...]
In Greece, girls as young as five have been abused by Afghan males, while in countries like Austria, Germany, and Sweden, child rape in swimming pools has become a regular feature in national news.
One Afghan mother told the Times she sleeps close to her children after witnessing child-rape at her Greek encampment.
"Weird things happen here after midnight," she explained. "Many of the young men get drunk. They shout, fight and do ugly things. No one dares to confront them. We’ve seen young girls and boys raped in the bathrooms here."
One of the primary issues is the types of people housed at the refugee camps -- many of whom are able-bodied Muslim men. Members of the Christian community -- the one actually targeted for genocide --  aren't found at the migrant camps for the very reasons stated above. Christians are targeted across the Middle East and know the refugee camps are as hostile a place for them as the country they're fleeing. 
Without proper vetting, as asylum applicants are processed across the West, the scourge of rape and mayhem will only spread outward. And, in case you missed it, the bill of goods Americans were sold on an 18-24 month vetting process for refugees was, predictably a lie.The actual vetting time has been reduced to three months, if that. What's more, only a paltry 2.5 percent of our current Syrian refugee population is Christian. 
Once again, Western leaders have utterly failed their own citizens, along with the very refugees they claim to be helping. 

US Church Website Hacked with ISIS Threat: 'We Will Break Your Crosses and Enslave Your Women' "You have realized the threat of the Islamic State."

US Church Website Hacked with ISIS Threat: 'We Will Break Your Crosses and Enslave Your Women'

"You have realized the threat of the Islamic State."

An American church's website was recently hacked by the pro-ISIS group known as the United Cyber Caliphate with a threatening video declaring a war on Christians in the name of Islam's god, Allah.
It was a 15-year-old girl who discovered the defacement, according to FOX17. Elizabeth Storteboom was trying to find a telephone number for the Lamont Christian Reformed Church in Michigan on Friday and was met instead with the threatening message:
"You have realized the threat of the Islamic State… We will conquer your Rome, break your crosses, and enslave your women by the permission of Allah, the Exalted."
After she clicked the website link, Storteboom said the video started playing. Frightened, she called her dad in and covered the camera on her computer.
"It was just talking about hating Christians and how Allah was God and everything," the girl said. "I was just confused. They were talking about taking women and children and stuff."
The website was fixed by the next day but the damage had been done; only six people showed up to services on Sunday morning. 
This isn't the first church whose website has been hacked by ISIS sympathizers and it certainly won't be the last. But it's also no surprise that a Michigan church fell victim to the latest Islamic cyber attack, as the state and its cities, particularly Dearborn -- which boasts the largest mosque in America -- has fast become the Muslim capital of the United States.

LAPD Investigate Belief in Two Gendersas a Hate Crime at Catholic College

LAPD Investigate Belief in Two Gendersas a Hate Crime at Catholic College

“Denying transgenderism"

Police along with the university's "Bias Incident Response Team" are investigating a "hate crime" at Loyola Marymount University in Los Angeles. The hate crime? Believing there are only two genders.
Both the police and the university’s Bias Incident Response Team are investigating the stated belief that only two genders exist, male and female, as a hate crime.
A Loyola alumni office employee discussed her views on sexual orientation, which align with the Roman Catholic Church, with three students who were hanging up posters on the subject on April 14.
One of the students involved in the incident explained to The College Fix that that "hate crime" is “denying transgenderism.” Cosette Corleo, who identifies as "gender neutral" was told by a university employee that only two genders exist and Corleo believes that statement is a "hate crime."
Carleo explained “you can have your opinion” as long as it doesn’t “deny my existence.”
Accounts of the incident in question differ. Carleo says the incident began when she (or he?) noticed "Rainbow Week" posters were removed from and placed behind a garbage can. The accused employee “allegedly approached the students about LGBTQ+ issues and voiced her opinions on differing sexualities, expressing that anti-LGBTQ+ signs should be put up in place of the students’ sign.” Carleo says the employee “told me that I was wrong and unnatural.”
But the husband of the employee tells a different story and says it can be corroborated by a witness.
After discussing the signs, “everyone shook hands and my wife invited them into the Alumni office anytime they wanted to talk more,” the husband wrote. “The girls express out loud how much they enjoyed the opportunity to ‘dialogue’ on these subjects with my wife.”
The husband also said his wife was suspended before anyone talked to her about the incident.
LMU's LGBT's Student Services told The College Fix the investigation is ongoing.

Rutgers Removes 'Art' Installation ofJesus Nailed to Dart Board Ah, the artistic originality that exudes from students these days.

Rutgers Removes 'Art' Installation ofJesus Nailed to Dart Board

Ah, the artistic originality that exudes from students these days.

What passes for art these days. 
Rutgers University displayed a controversial "art" installment depicting Jesus pinned to a dart board with darts, but was ultimately removed it to a less prominent place in the exhibit after numerous complaints were lodged. 
The installment featured a crucified Jesus stabbed with four darts and was displayed in an exhibit in the Art Library on Voorhees Mall at the school's New Brunswick campus. NJ.com reports
Some Rutgers students and alumni turned to Facebook to post photos of the art piece, called "Vitruvian Man," and demand it be taken down.
"It is surprising that a state university would allow this. I asked them to take it down because I found it disrespectful and they refused," Rutgers alumnae Natalie Caruso, of Elmwood Park, said Wedensday in a Facebook post on the Rutgers University Class of 2016 page that drew hundreds of comments and shares.
Other commenters defended the piece and the university's right to display it.
"It's art, it's an important statement. Also it's hilarious. We don't have to cater to the wills of the Church or any denomination of Christianity or religion," Joe Buchoff, a Rutgers student, wrote on Facebook.
Please, Joe, do remember that the next time you're expected to cater to the will of Islam. Christians and Christianity are today's easy target for so-called intellectuals and artists. We all know full well that few if any would dare do this with an image of the Islamic prophet Muhammad. 
Campus officials moved the installment on Thursday, according to the report, to a less prominent spot in the exhibit area, but eventually removed it all together. 
"The artwork in question was removed from the exhibit because it did not meet Rutgers University Libraries policy, which requires art exhibitions and their pieces to be based on university events, curricular offerings and topics of interest to the university community," said Jessica Pellien, director of communications at Rutgers University Libraries.
Does someone have the right to place a crucifix on a dart board, or in a jar of urine, and try to pass it off as art? Sure. It's lowbrow and created without thought or originality, but people are free to be stupid. That's why America's First Amendment is the greatest free speech-protective in the world. 

More Capitulation: Lawmakers Ditch 'John Wayne Day' Over Racism Fears Chivalry is dead.

More Capitulation: Lawmakers Ditch 'John Wayne Day' Over Racism Fears

Chivalry is dead.

Chivalry is dead in today's society, along with ideas of patriotism, civility, altruism, community service, and masculinity in its genuine sense. It comes as no surprise, then, that California lawmakers capitulated (yet again) to social justice warriors whomight be offended if the State were to honor American icon John Wayne. 
The Associated Press reports that the state Assembly defeated the official ode to John Wayne Thursday after several legislators "described statements he made about racial minorities and his support for the anti-communist House Un-American Activities Committee and John Birch Society." In fact, Wayne's iconic films The AlamoThe Green Berets andTrue Grit would send today's weak-kneed SJWs into an utter tailspin. And we couldn't have that now, could we?
Republican State Assemblyman Matthew Harper of Huntington Beach sought to declare May 26, 2016, as John Wayne Day to mark the day the actor was born.
"He had disturbing views towards race," objected Assemblyman Luis Alejo, D-Watsonville, leading off a 20-minute debate.
Alejo cited a 1971 interview with Playboy in which Wayne talked disparagingly about blacks.
"I believe in white supremacy until the blacks are educated to a point of responsibility. I don't believe in giving authority and positions of leadership and judgment to irresponsible people," he told the magazine (http://bit.ly/1SwJCDa .)
Assemblyman Mike Gipson, D-Carson, who is black, said he found Wayne's comments personally offensive.
Assemblywoman Lorena Gonzalez, D-San Diego, cited his comments defending white Europeans' encroachment on American Indians who Wayne once said "were selfishly trying to keep it for themselves."
Wayne is just the latest "dead white guy" to become the Left's target. After all, it's now "official" that former President Andrew Jackson was nothing more than a slavemaster and Indian subjugator, and we can't have the face of folks like that on a $20 bill. 
Similarly,  President Woodrow Wilson came under fire at Princeton University when SJWs demanded his name be removed from a building because he was a "segregationist."
Harper, despite his good intentions lost his push to honor the Duke by a margin of 35-20. 
"Opposing the John Wayne Day resolution is like opposing apple pie, fireworks, baseball, the Free Enterprise system and the Fourth of July!" he said later in a written statement.
Several lawmakers supported the resolution, recalling Wayne as an American hero whose family created a namesake cancer foundation after his death.
"He stood for those big American values that we know and we love," said Assemblyman Travis Allen, R-Huntington Beach.
Indeed he did. But thanks to decades of left-wing perfidy, big American values aren't in fashion any longer. 

German Foreign Minister Blasts Trumpfor 'Putting America First'

German Foreign Minister Blasts Trumpfor 'Putting America First'

"The world's security architecture has changed and it ... cannot be conducted unilaterally."

Germany's Foreign Minister Frank-Walter Steinmeier is apparently offended that Donald Trump's foreign policy speech focused on the catchphrase "America first."
The German statesman criticized the Republican frontrunner Thursday over what he considers self-defeating. Reuters reports
"I can only hope that the election campaign in the USA does not lack the perception of reality," Steinmeier said.
"The world's security architecture has changed and it is no longer based on two pillars alone. It cannot be conducted unilaterally," he said, referring to Trump's "America first" message.
Steinmeier said international conflicts could only be solved nowadays if heavyweights like the United States and Russia and others joined forces.
"No American president can get round this change in the international security architecture," Steinmeier said, adding that this was why "'America first' is actually no answer to that".
Steinmeier also said that Trump's speech was contradictory, with the Republican calling on the one hand for 'America first' but on the other hand urging the United States to withdraw from the world: "Those two things don't seem to fit together very well to me," he said.
Germany is hardly in a prime position to lecture on this issue, given that it hasn't been putting its own citizens first for quite some time.
