CNN Makes Rare Move After Despicable Christiane
Amanpour Remark About Freed Hostages Prompts Backlash
Posted By: 4250Luis, 10/14/2025 6:15:16 AM
If you're not a person who hates Israel and who has routinely shown sympathy for their terrorist enemies, Monday was a good day, with the surviving hostages being released as a result of the historic peace deal between Israel and Hamas, brokered by President Trump and members of his administration.But Monday was not a good day for CNN's longtime chief international anchor Christiane Amanpour, a British-Iranian "journalist" whose name has become synonymous with Israel- and America-bashing. As RedState reported earlier, Amanpour was one of the sour-faced media figures who, while talking about the hostages being released, seemed to fret about Hamas supposedly losing their "leverage" in the deal.

The Nobel Peace Prize is dead—and it died of cowardice.
They gave Barack Obama a Nobel Peace Prize for hope.
Donald Trump earned a ten for results—and got no prize.
That single fact reveals more about the moral and institutional decay of Western leadership than any lecture about democracy ever could.
It wasn’t just a snub. It was a confession—a quiet admission that the Nobel Peace Prize, once a lodestar of moral clarity, has become a mirror of elite insecurities, incapable of recognizing peace when it comes from someone they didn’t script, sanctify, or control.
If politics is downstream from culture, and it is, we have a lot to worry about.
This is frankly because American culture has long been rotting like a 10-day-old avocado in the sun.
A good example, appearing in my X notifications yesterday, is a video of a white girl sporting corn-woven hair and speaking “Ebonics” while giving a cop a hard time.
“Why is she talking like that?” asks the original poster of the 54-second clip (below).X users reacting to the video were unsparing, with no small number attributing her behavior to low I.Q.
And one seemingly incredulous respondent asked, “Seriously, how does a white person become like this?
I would say, "Pity the poor Democrats," but they have spent far too many years being awful to warrant any consideration for whatever feelings their cold, leftist hearts might have. At the moment, the Dems are in political exile in Washington, D.C. Not by much, but it's exile nonetheless. As we have discussed many times, they aren't making much of a case to the American people to be brought out of it. Who knows? Maybe their "raining f-bombs on the Republicans" strategy will pan out. I remain skeptical about that.
They're also struggling with the government shutdown.
A Hard-Fought Triumph in Israel

Barbarism didn’t win.
For more than two years, Hamas clung to the people it had taken hostage and brutalized as leverage over Israel in the war that the terror group initiated on October 7, 2023 — men, women, and children, Israelis and foreign nationals, Jews and non-Jews alike.Through ephemeral deals and in daring raids, some were liberated. Too many, though, were killed or languished in Gaza’s dungeons during the war that followed. Throughout the conflict, the Israeli government maintained that the war would end when the hostages were released. Today, the hostages who were not murdered in Hamas’s captivity are home, and the war for their freedom is over.
The Depth of Climate Knowledge

Changes that occur in the atmosphere occur in three dimensions. That should come as no surprise, even with the wrap-up late last month of Climate Week NYC. Yet so much thinking on climate change happens on a two-dimensional level.
Certainly, academic and government studies delve into the dimensional complexity of the airy environment, but the study results seem to be delivered and interpreted in a simplistic way.
Take climate conclusions derived from the U.N. Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) report. The IPCC report is the bible of climate change collective wisdom, and its latest edition is the Sixth Assessment Report (AR6).
A total lack of understanding of the Middle East resulted in the United States leading coalition forces into Iraq in 2003. Unlike the First Gulf War to remove Iraqi forces from Kuwait in 1991, Arab nations stayed clear of the second engagement. Although these countries did not like Saddam, they understood the importance he played in maintaining the balance of power in the Middle East.When Operation Iraqi Freedom ended in 2011, Iraq had become an Iranian satellite, along with Syria, Lebanon, and Yemen. Iranian-funded Hamas controlled Gaza. The Middle East meltdown, refugee surge into Europe, .

President Donald Trump has performed nothing short of a miracle by halting the war in Gaza and securing the release of 20 precious souls who had been languishing in Hamas captivity since Oct. 7.
Trump’s efforts were greeted with jubilation and relief in Israel — and amazingly, in Gaza as well.
The cease-fire is the first step in a larger peace deal that could reshape the Middle East and end the Israeli-Palestinian conflict for good.
This alone would have been enough for us — Dayenu! as we Jews say on Passover.
But Trump’s achievement is all the more extraordinary: His diplomatic breakthrough won’t cost American taxpayers trillions of dollars.
President Donald Trump settled scores with his political foes during his passionate address to the Israeli parliament on Monday, taking a swipe at Hillary Clinton and blasting his predecessors Joe Biden and Barack Obama.
Trump, who appeared before the Knesset on Monday to tout the Israel-Hamas cease-fire deal that he brokered, said that the two Democratic presidents who preceded him in the White House harbored “hatred” for the Jewish state.
“All of the countries in the Middle East that could have what we’re doing now, it could have happened a long time ago, but it was strangled and set back almost irretrievably by the administrations of Barack Obama and then Joe Biden,”
Former President Barack Obama stated that President Donald Trump’s deployment of National Guard troops to quell crime in Democrat-run cities is “inherently corrupting,” arguing that he would have received a different reaction from conservative media if he had sent the military into Texas during his tenure. Obama spoke with left-wing comedian Mark Maron for the final episode of his long-running podcast, published Monday, in which he shared several of his grievances about how Trump has been leading the country.
For two days, the Venezuelan government didn't acknowledge that opposition leader María Corina Machado won the Nobel Peace Price, though it's understandable. Illegitimate narco-terrorist president Nicolás Maduro is losing his stronghold on the nation, and Machado is largely the reason for that. On Friday, the whole world learned who she is and what she's fighting for, which amplified the country's desire for freedom and democracy, and especially its desire to remove the tyrant who holds it all hostage. Best Maduro can do is pretend her team is blowing up the not-in-service U.S. embassy in Caracas and that his security forces stopped them —
Venezuelan dictator Nicolas Maduro is in a bind as the US ups the pressure.
He advanced the Christmas season to October, while his security forces probed his top officials to root out traitors interested in the $50 million bounty for his arrest.

A dedicated prayer room for Muslims has reportedly been opened inside the 500-year-old Vatican Apostolic Library in Rome after a plea for the separate, carpeted space was made by visiting Islamic scholars. The Catholic Herald reports Fr Giacomo Cardinali, Vice Prefect, said in an interview with the Italian newspaper La Repubblica that Muslim academics had requested an area in which to pray, and the library had agreed. “Some Muslim scholars have asked us for a room with a carpet for praying and we have given it to them,” he said.
In the interview, Cardinali referred to the library’s modern collections: about 80,000 manuscripts, 50,000 archival items, nearly

Tightens Grip On Gaza As Truce Flashes Violence 34 replies
Hamas fighters have dramatically reasserted control in Gaza, defying Israeli demands for disarmament just a day after U.S. President Donald Trump was in the region signing the ceasefire agreement.
On Tuesday, the militant group solidified its return by carrying out public executions of men accused of collaborating with Israeli forces. A video circulated Monday, whose authenticity was confirmed by a Hamas source, showed seven men dragged into a crowd, forced to their knees, and shot from behind in Gaza City.
The move underscores the “daunting hurdles” facing efforts to move Trump’s ceasefire plan toward a longer-term resolution.
NEW YORK — Leaders of Young Republican groups throughout the country worried what would happen if their Telegram chat ever got leaked, but they kept typing anyway.
They referred to Black people as monkeys and “the watermelon people” and mused about putting their political opponents in gas chambers. They talked about raping their enemies and driving them to suicide and lauded Republicans who they believed support slavery.
William Hendrix, the Kansas Young Republicans’ vice chair, used the words “n--ga” and “n--guh,” variations of a racial slur, , more than a dozen times in the chat. Bobby Walker, the vice chair of the New York State Young Republicans at the time,
A State Department contractor stole thousands of pages of “TOP SECRET” classified documents and met with Beijing officials.
Ashley Tellis, an expert on India and South Asian affairs, removed the top secret documents from secure locations and met with Chinese officials.
The classified documents were located in Tellis’s Virginia home during a raid.
“On Sept. 25, he allegedly printed U.S. Air Force documents concerning military aircraft capabilities. Federal prosecutors allege that he met with Chinese government officials multiple times over the past several years,” Fox News reported.

News organizations including The New York Times, The Associated Press and the conservative Newsmax television network said Monday they will not sign a Defense Department document about its new press rules, making it likely the Trump administration will evict their reporters from the Pentagon.
Those outlets say the policy threatens to punish them for routine news gathering protected by the First Amendment. The Washington Post, The Atlantic and Reuters on Monday also publicly joined the group that says it will not be signing. AP confirmed Monday afternoon that it would not sign.
The Democratic Socialists of America — the organization backing New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani — denounced the “conditional” cease-fire deal between Israel and Hamas and called for continued resistance against the Jewish state in a statement released Monday.
The DSA declaration titled “Until Palestinian Liberation” came days after Israel and Hamas agreed to halt fighting and begin exchanging hostages and prisoners under a US- and Arab-brokered deal.
The far-left group said the truce “will not end Israel’s assault on the Palestinian people or the theft and occupation of Palestinian lands,” describing it as a “conditional cease-fire” that “does not wash the hands of the ruling class that …
Moses, smell the roses: Did you see the joyous, adoring throngs of Israelis and Arabs, all cheering and praising the American president? Millions of people chanting his name!
Y’know, for a guy with Donald Trump’s ego, people worshiping him as a god in the Holy Land must’ve been pretty trippy.
But for a guy with Barack Obama’s ego, had he been in Trump’s shoes, he would’ve believed it.
That’s always been one of the fundamental differences between the two most historically significant presidents of this century: Sure, Donald Trump has an ego, but he’s also self-aware. His pride and self-confidence are 100% authentic, but he’s also a showman: Part of it is schtick.
Sen. Cory Booker is racing down the aisle! During his appearance on the I've Had It podcast released on Tuesday, Oct. 14, the newly engaged Democratic New Jersey lawmaker, 56, revealed that he's fast-tracking his "I dos." "I've had it with being single. 100%. Being single is not fun, especially when you're trying to date," Booker told hosts Jennifer Welch and Angie "Pumps" Sullivan. "And as a United States Senator, it's been a difficult, challenging time. So I've had it with that, and I'm very psyched that I'm getting married." Booker announced his engagement to Alexis Lewis on Tuesday, Sept.
Ever since President Donald Trump brokered the historic ceasefire between Israel and Hamas, the left has predictably tried to rewrite history. Instead of acknowledging Trump’s success, they’ve either praised the deal without giving him credit or tried desperately to hand the credit to someone else—namely, former President Joe Biden.
Biden’s former Secretary of State, Antony Blinken, previously claimed the Trump-brokered ceasefire “builds on a post-conflict framework developed under the Biden administration.” The spin is almost comical: (Snip) On Monday, Biden issued a statement on the release of hostages in Gaza, framing it as a crowning achievement of his administration.

The Democrats' reaction to President Donald Trump's historic peace deal in Gaza has been interesting. Some on the left had the grace to give him the credit he deserved. Then, you had folks like former President Barack Obama, who, while welcoming the deal, couldn't bring himself to even mention Trump's name.[snip]Then there were folks like Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) who seemed to be implying that she had something to do with the achievement in her remarks, when, of course, she had nothing to do with it.[snip] "The president told me he did this on Indigenous Peoples Day in honor of you," Vance jokingly replied
The Israeli military said Wednesday that one of the bodies handed over by Hamas the previous day as part of the ceasefire deal is not that of one of the hostages who was held in Gaza, adding to tensions over a fragile ceasefire in the two-year war.
Four bodies were handed over by Hamas on Tuesday to ease pressure on the fragile ceasefire, following the first four on Monday — when the last 20 living hostages were released. In all, Israel was awaiting the return of the bodies of 28 deceased hostages.
The military said that “following the completion of examinations at the National Institute of Forensic Medicine,
