Evil Zionist bimbette is a craven, power hungry piece of

<Fuck her>? I'm afraid not. Personally, I wouldn't touch her with a barge pole.

This is far from the first bit of misconduct The Free Press has done. Radley Balko did an extensive takedown of a Free Press story that attempted to exonerate George Floyd's murderer.

Keep in mind Israel is the greatest killer of journalists in the world, yet outlets like The Free Press keep excusing them.

Anyway y'all, sorry to plug but please help me out and subscribe. I'd appreciate it.

The things money can buy are preposterous. These wealthy funders and their minions, like Bari, are subverting our government and our public discourse to benefit Israel's evil acts in Gaza and other places.

As such Bari Weiss, Tina Snider, Dennis Ross, the Adelson Family, et al., are anti-American and pro-genocide.

And if we can't fast, or do a hunger strike for Gaza, at the very least, we who have food, can send a letter condemning McNally Capital for investing in genocide!

One of the investment firms profiting off the Gaza “Humanitarian” Foundation’s (GHF) barbaric starvation campaign to kill Palestinians is McNally Capital, headquartered in Chicago.

Shame on you!

Call on Pope Leo XIV to do whatever it takes to save Gaza and stop the bombing, and end the starvation. Let him go to Gaza and stand with the suffering people who are being massacred by Israel and the Western posers. He can go to Gaza right now, and insist aid be allowed in.

Is there anything more important in today's world than this?

WHAT AN EXTRAORDINARY ARTICLE!! thank you!! As I read the name Joseph Braude i remembered reading about his craven actions about a dozen years ago or so.. Thank you for doing background on this craven pack..... it's rare that I remember a thief reported in the NYT Years ago but his "history" drove my concern that came out of a wedding announcement in th Times. He'd been arrested at NY airport customs for the theft of IRAQI cylinder seals and lying about the way in which he 'received' them in Baghdad....early after the US invasion. After trial he was put under house arrest and probation for 2 years & wrote an audacious 'book' about "rebuilding" IRAQ...while thefts such as his proliferated. Also Matthew Bogdanos referred to his theft and trial in his book "THIEVES of BAGHDAD".

Now Braude is founder/president of a follow up to neocon WINEP an earlier bunch of liars and thieves...and like oil he's risen to the 'top' of another disinformative phony nonprofit group in support of the apartheid state. Thank you again DROPSITENEWS!!

This is not even a little bit shocking. I wouldn't be surprised if some of these organizations helped to increase her follower count. A million subs in just a couple of years, including 135K paid? Do the math

Hopefully Ellison can incinerate some more of his vast fortune buying this kind of crap through his CBS vehicle managed by his fail son.

We cannot remain silent. That’s why Combatants for Peace has launched a hunger strike and digital campaign in solidarity with Gazans facing forced starvation.

The three-day hunger strike, which began yesterday in Beit Jala, is taking place alongside the strike initiated by the Supreme Coordinating Committee of the 48’ Palestinians. This is a tool of civil struggle, a nonviolent cry against a policy that uses starvation as a weapon.

They are calling on all of us to take part. ✊ Here are ways you can join:

Fast in solidarity

Take a photo – hold a sign that says “Save Gaza from Starvation”, and post it using #EndGazaStarvation.

tag @afcfpeace and @combatantsforpeace_english so we can share your voice and amplify the growing cry.

I remember Bari from her days at Columbia where as a student. she tried with some success to take down the entire MiddleEastern Department started by Edward Said. She was a vicious Zionist at 20 and she still is but she n ow has her own media platform, soon to be sold to CBS for 250 million according to some reports. . I dont watch CBS = haven't for years- but even so, the thought of her dictating policies as CBS is horrifying. When she started the Free Press. I knew no writer would ever be "free" to criticize Israel. Evidently. people who subscribe to and read the FP dont care about her extreme pro=Israel bias since it isn't a secret. She is also a founder of the University of Austin. How far she has come.

Way back while she was in college she was part of the The David Project, which harassed Middle East department professors, recorded their lectures and tried to get them fired. When she first got her Times column I was surprised that having done that didn't hinder her career prospects--naïve me!
