NY Times Hires Another Anti-Israel Extremist to Cover Israel
The New York Times has a type.
It hired a reporter who once said she can’t bring herself even to look at Israelis, and who admitted that her objectivity “got thrown out the window.”
It hired another who in college was an apologist for Hamas and Hezbollah, denying that the terror organizations are terror organizations, that they are fundamentalists, and even that they have murdered Israeli civilians.
It hired another not long after she expressed outrage that Israel struck a Hamas commander after the terror group fired a barrage of rockets toward Israeli civilians — and even charged that the strike amounted to “murder.”
Shortly after the Oct. 7 massacre, the newspaper commissioned a journalist who had posted on social media, “How great you are, Hitler.”
So it is unfortunate, but hardly surprising, that the New York Times has hired Bora Erden to cover the Israel-Hamas conflict. Erden was a committed anti-Israel activist prior to joining the Times last October. In May 2021, after Hamas rocket attacks into Israel and a consequent round of fighting, Erden signed a letter supporting what was termed the “Palestinian struggle against Israeli colonial rule and its apartheid system.”
The letter, which called for a protest at the Museum of Modern Art in New York City (or “Occupied Mannahatta,” as the protest organizers put it), took aim at the museum because it has board members who support Israel. The problem seemed to be Jewish money. At least four of the the five board members named in the letter were Jewish, while the fifth was pointedly described as using money that came from her husband, who is also Jewish.
Erden was a signatory to another letter that attacked Israel (or rather, “the settler colony known as Israel”) while celebrating academic censorship, including with regard to Israel. The letter slammed Cornell for suggesting, during an anti-Israel lecture, that it would later organize a lecture “that presents other view points.” It approvingly stated that many academic institutions understand it is “no longer acceptable for them to provide their students and faculty with curricula and lectures that reinforce the white-dominated, settler colonial, patriarchal, and heteronormative status quo,” a euphemism for any non-radical scholarship, and lamented that Cornell didn’t get the memo.
If someone thinks academia should suppress perspectives, he would hardly be expected to think differently about journalism. And yet, hardly a week after the Oct. 7 attacks, the New York Times hired this committed anti-Israel ideologue to help with its coverage of Israel.

ZOA Cited: Iran Can Produce 'Multiple Nuclear Weapons Within Days,' Foreign Policy Leaders Say, Underscoring 'Urgent Need' for Action
America’s Next President Must ‘Develop Credible Military Options for Preventing Iranian Acquisition of a Nuclear Bomb'
By Adam Kredo
Washington Free Beacon) Iran is quietly accelerating its nuclear program "to a point where the regime can now produce enough weapons-grade uranium for multiple nuclear weapons within days," according to a broad coalition of think tanks and advocacy groups. America's next president, those groups say, must quickly "develop credible military options for preventing Iranian acquisition of a nuclear bomb."
With the world focused on Israel's war against Hamas and the upcoming 2024 U.S. presidential election, Tehran has steadily increased its nuclear enrichment activity, increasing the likelihood of a direct confrontation in the coming years. American policymakers and the winner of this year's election will soon be faced with a potentially globe altering decision point, the organizations warn in a new policy brief.
Iran has "taken advantage of a distracted world to double down on its nuclear program, moving closer than ever to potential weaponization," wrote the Vandenberg Coalition and Foundation for Defense of Democracies, two leading think tanks comprised of foreign policy experts and former government officials, in a policy briefing released Thursday. "These threats require a comprehensive response from U.S. policymakers.
The "joint call to action" is backed by nine other think tanks and foreign policy groups, including Veterans on Duty, United Against a Nuclear Iran, Christians United for Israel, the National Union for Democracy in Iran, Advancing American Freedom, the Republican Jewish Coalition, and the Zionist Organization of America. It signals growing concern among a broad section of the U.S. foreign policy community about America's hesitance to confront Iran as the Islamic Republic pushes toward a nuclear bomb and foments terrorism across the Middle East.
"Iran's advancing nuclear program, coupled with the full spectrum of its destabilizing activities, underscore the urgent need for a cohesive and comprehensive strategy in response to counter these threats," the groups write. "We can be distracted no longer."
The Biden administration's policies toward Iran have long been a source of tension with Republican leaders on Capitol Hill. Illicit Iranian oil sales have reached more than $90 billion under President Joe Biden, and other forms of sanctions relief have allowed Tehran to access around $10 billion in once-frozen revenues
Should Biden win a second term, his administration will likely have to adopt a more hardline policy to prevent Tehran's march toward a nuclear bomb, according to the advocacy groups.
"It is impossible to predict the outcome of the 2024 elections on either end of Pennsylvania Avenue; however, Americans of both political parties have a unique opportunity and the responsibility to develop a comprehensive plan against a leading American adversary, Iran," the groups write. "We must set the agenda for a future American president to shut down Iran’s nuclear development, target its proxy terrorist network, and ensure the survival of the state of Israel."
Any new policy should include rallying other Western nations to sanction Tehran's nuclear activity and reimpose a series of economic measures that were originally lifted by the United Nations as part of the 2015 nuclear accord, the groups say
America must also be prepared to deal with a worst-case scenario, according to the policy brief. This scenario means providing the Pentagon "with adequate resource
s to rapidly execute military contingencies if deterrence fails, including sufficient protection for U.S. personnel, assets, bases and embassies, and the ability to project sufficient force to prompt Iran to de-escalate following a U.S. strike response
The United States must also deal with Iran's foreign influence campaign.

As Obama circles over Biden he is like a hawk prepared to attack. Obama wants to control Biden's fate and will do everything in his power to stab him in the back. Obama has never been anything but a threat to those he targets. Same for Hillary. Both totally distrustful always seeking power always thinking only of self.
