1. The fraud and farce of the week is the bombing of a parking lot and then trying to pass it off as the bombing of a hospital with 400 dead. Too many stupid people on this planet.

   1. And Trudeau is one of those

      1. He’s so stupid it’s a wonder he isn’t two of them.

   2. Did you see the picture of the parking lot. No way you could even put 400 people there.

      Jezzzzzzzz what liars.
      And the MSN fell for it.

      1. “No way you could even put 400 people there”

         Technically it’s possible as there is from 600 to 700 Square meters of lawn in the courtyard, so max capacity at 1 m^2 per person is more than 500 people, but then you would have to kill all of them and that seems highly improbable.

         1. F***, splitting hairs is beyond stupid.

            1. It’s what they do. The Biden administration wants to outright ban the truth, as distributed by conservative outlets, while feeding and fertilizing the cooperating lies from the mainstream media liars.

         2. I saw pictures of the bombed parking lot. If … IF … there were 400 people there … the lot would be COVERED in blood. I didn’t see so much as a nosebleed drip. OTOH … EVERY home and building where Israelis were murdered and slaughtered by an EVIL org. named Hamas were covered in blood.

            A journalist doesn’t need Hamas making claims about 400 dead … all they need is a set of eyes .. and a logical brain. But the Press HATES Israel … so they’re happy to BLAME Israel without any proof or evidence.

2. NYT’s deliberate lie and fomenting of extreme violence is criminal. They really need to go and trade spots with the hostages.

   “Last night was the worst media f-ckup I’ve ever seen. In terms of the range/seriousness of info gotten wrong, #/prestige/geographic diversity of outlets that f-cked up, overall credulousness, real-world impact, the lack of reflection/remorse etc. Scores a 10 in every category.”

   Sounds like your everyday cbc reporting, horrible and nearly all is bull and manure.

3. From PatriotPost: “It wasn’t an airstrike, it didn’t hit a hospital, it didn’t kill hundreds, and Israel didn’t do it. But other than that, the reporting was accurate.”

   This quote reminds me of a joke from USSR times: Rumour in town was that Ivan received a Volga (car brand). Truth was that he didn’t receive, it was taken from him, and it wasn’t a Volga but a bicycle.

   1. I’m skeptical of your claims 1 & 4.

      On number 4 (who did it) it was a proximity fuse air-burst warhead of some kind, and that is technology that Hamas does not have. They use primitive contact fuses in their warheads, using rifle bullets and nails as the ignition method. So that fact would point to the munition being Israeli.

      As for an airstrike or not, if the conclusion is that it was an airburst warhead, it doesn’t matter if it was an artillery shell or airstrike, the culprit is likely Israel. On twitter, there has been video posted, allegedly contemporaneous with the hospital explosion, that shows the flares combat aircraft release to confuse manpads weapons which would indicate the IAF was active above Gaza at the time of the hospital explosion.

      I agree it didn’t hit a hospital and likely didn’t kill hundreds. My interpretation is that Israeli drones picked up the people camping on the lawns in the courtyard, and assumed it was a Hamas camp. The Anglican Archbishop of Jerusalem, Hosam Naoum, claims the Israelis called the hospital 3 times over the weekend telling them to evacuate, which would also point to the Israelis as the perpetrators of the hospital attack.

      1. I’m thinking NOT!

         Talk about spinning, by the way. Do you work for CNN or BBC.
         Sure sounds like their type of BS.

         1. “I’m thinking NOT!

            Talk about spinning, by the way. Do you work for CNN or BBC.
            Sure sounds like their type of BS.”

            It is indeed. There was no ‘airburst’ of any kind, since that would have taken out all the hospital windows. Oh, and the explosion didn’t even touch the lawns, only the parking lot. There is a very small crater, one overturned car and the rest of the cars are *still in their parking spaces*, just burned.

            Totally consistent with a failed rocket launch falling short. NONE of the characteristics of a bombing or missile strike.

            1. “since that would have taken out all the hospital windows”

               Can you direct me to where you’re getting this information? I thought I may have missed something so I went back and looked again but as near as I can tell there’s not a single window left in east side of both the north and south hospital buildings, and also the north side of the south building. You can see twisted window frames or partial thereof but no glass. There’s extensive damage to the north side of the church roof and the carport roof. A number of cars are flattened and 1 overturned, plus the palm trees are all burned partially at least. The evidence that there was a large flash then fireball turning into a mushroom cloud seen from a point west of the hospital is irrefutable as assorted geolocators have confirmed.

               What is your theory then? A rocket exploded way above the area maybe 4 seconds before the hospital explosion but that’s not enough time for gravity to bring the rocket warhead back to earth. And anyway how can rocket fuel burned twice, once in the air after an engine malfunction, then again after it hits the ground.

               I’ll add that according to the Anglican archbishop of Jerusalem this hospital was warned by the IDF 3 times over last weekend to evacuate (but they refused obviously).

4. “…, they’re (media) going to make an already tragic conflict so much worse and get even more people killed. This simply can’t be tolerated. ”

   Of course it can … and will be.

5. Ref: turdo’s hiring spree.

   “The number of employees has increased 26 percent since 2015, by official estimate: “But we haven’t seen similar improvements when it comes to service.”

   Oh. So I guess self-service doesn’t count?

   1. I know my neighbor still works from home a few days a week – he’s a clerk of physical files – and I know he sometimes plays guitar and loud music, but I don’t know and don’t want to know if he’s servicing himself.

      1. Is he a moaner, or a screamer?

6. “Press must be held accountable.”
   ———————————-

   Maybe I missed it, but I didn’t notice any suggestions in the linked article on exactly how the press could be held accountable.

   It seems to me that people have already done their part. The NYT print circulation is down to the diehard libs it caters to. I believe the print version is a money loser. Social media commentary is mostly about what liars and idiots the NYT has become. And note that the views the NYT are getting are from links pointing out the lies and idiocy of the NYT with the linked article as proof.

   The NYT strategy to get views appears to be “Lie so outrageously that we get a ton of clicks that come just to see today’s lies.” They can sell advertisers on the number of clicks they are getting. It doesn’t matter why people are viewing.

   I do my part. I will not knowingly click on links to the lying legacy media sites, including the NYT.

7. Heck, it wasn’t just the NYT. Try CNN, BBC and NBC. They just took Hamas word.

8. “Really big lies”

   What a lot of people don’t seem to realize is both sides tell lies.

   1. Welcome to war bud.

9. Who to blame for the hospital bombing is a distraction from something much larger.

   “In other words, the loss of US authority has become so visible that even loyal organs like the Financial Times are forced to take notice. How long before the rest of the mainstream media follows suit? Or is Biden so deluded that he too will escalate in the hope that playing war president will force a show of loyalty?”

   https://www.nakedcapitalism.com/2023/10/biden-gets-zelensky-treatment-in-middle-east-as-israel-tries-to-escalate.html

   1. Iran will fire a nuclear missile at Jerusalem it will fall short and wipe Gaza or the West Bank off the map . But you know Israel will be blamed for it.

      Fog of the mentally ill.

      1. If a missile launched from Iran falls short it won’t hit Gaza.

         But you’re right, if Iran, or Pakistan, launched a nuke at Israel and missed, the Israelis would be blamed; by the Arab world, Justin Trudeau, Jagmeet Singh, etc.

10. Let’s get this correct Hamas stole across Israel’s border at night –And killed babies in cribs -killed innocent people in their homes -killed innocent people in the streets – kidnapped hundreds of innocent people and hauled to where?
    If Trudeau and Biden can’t realize this —–IT”S TIME FOR THEM TO BE REMOVED. Actually over time!
    WHY are we tolerating the likes of Justin Trudeau!!!
    Wake up Canada and get rid of the WOKE!

11. The media can and should be held accountable under current criminal and civil laws, their false narrative incited violent backlashes and it could of got people killed. The media does not have legal immunity when they incite a mob of violent Islamist globally based on hearsay evidence from Hamas.

    1. What leftist judge would ever convict them, Rose?

       Heck! What in-the-tank lefty prosecutor would even bring them to trial?

12. Canadian government spends $8 million on a barn for the Governor General.

    https://nationalpost.com/news/ncc-paid-8-million-to-replace-barn-rideau-hall/wcm/6cf03dc9-54d5-4135-8ec2-1d428143c8f6/amp/

    At the end of the article; $11 million spent renovations to Harrington Lake, Trudeau’s vacation home.

13. While everybody is getting their knickers in a twist over what is transpiring around the globe it might be of interest to sit back over the weekend and consider how the Joseph Goebbels, Temple Grandin, Stanley Milgram, and Garret Hardin theories are all coming together.

    In a nut shell the four theories can be reduced to these four statements:
    Joseph Goebbels “Tell a lie often enough and people will believe it.”
    Temple Grandin “People like animals can be comfortably led to the slaughter house.”
    Stanley Milgram “Eighty percent of the population can be convinced by authority to convict crimes.”
    Garret Hardin “Society like a lifeboat can be overwhelmed.”

    There are occurences in human development that can be construed as coincidences and then there are engineered plans. Stop and think, what is happening today cannot be explained as coincidences and must therefore be planned. Excess deaths, runaway inflation, war, energy crisis, loss of trust in government, loss of trust in the press, supression of news and opinions, loss of trust in the legal system, these occurrences are not happenchance coincidences. I urge all who are twisting their knickers in a knot to take an hour out of your weekend and think about what is going on around you.

    1. This is excellent. I’m going to steal it. Thank you Antenor.

       1. You are most welcome. By all means take it and spread it among your friends.

          Incidentally I’d like to add some clarification on the Hardin theory. He theorized on an existing lifeboat, I theorize on the people that built the lifeboat.

14. The 26% rise in federal public servants just shows that the inmates are running the asylum.
