Classic Rock Band Names And The Stories Behind Them

What’s in a name? Well, recognition and self-response to others. Our pets have names, some cute, some that are not very fair to the animal, but luckily, they don’t know that. In the last century, when recorded music became available, people could listen to music at home, and the advent of radio was even more revolutionary at the time than the internet and all its impact today. So, memorable names were important, but also, local stations in small markets gave listeners a chance to play on evening local music showed when the networks weren’t broadcasting, local sports, community, church services, The post Classic Rock Band Names And The Stories Behind Them appeared first on ClassicRockHistory.com.

Voyager 1 Returning Science Data from All Four Instruments After Months of Radio Silence

Two months after NASA crews reestablished diagnostic communications with Voyager 1, they just recently received scientific observational data as well. Transmitted via the last remaining instruments still operational aboard the furthest man-made object from Earth, the data provides critical observations on plasma and magnetism in interstellar space. It’s been 46 years and 7 months since […] The post Voyager 1 Returning Science Data from All Four Instruments After Months of Radio Silence appeared first on Good News Network.

Is This Unelected Panel Targeting Trump-Appointed Inspectors General?

In the past month, Department of Homeland Security Inspector General Joseph Cuffari’s office has issued reports citing problems with the Biden administration’s assessments for allowing high-risk individuals into the country, and another report calling for improved vetting of the claims of asylum-seekers. But while working as the top oversight official of DHS, Cuffari contends, he has been targeted with what he says are baseless and retaliatory investigations.  He was appointed as the top watchdog of the DHS by then-President Donald Trump in 2019 and confirmed by a voice vote in the Senate. The panel investigating him is primarily made up of nonpresidential appointees known as the Council of the Inspectors General on Integrity and Efficiency (CIGIE), and more specifically, the council’s Integrity Committee. Some inspectors general can only be fired by President Joe Biden upon notifying Congress, while others can be fired by a board of directors of a particular agency.   In recent weeks, the rift within the inspectors general community has prompted Congress to take notice, with an eye on this potential politicization.  The seemingly different standard caught the attention of Congress. Rep. Andy Biggs, R-Ariz., who spearheaded a May 23 letter co-signed by eight other House Republicans, to Amtrak Inspector General Kevin Winters in Winters’ capacity as chairman of the Integrity Committee. The Amtrak board of directors made Winters inspector general in January 2019. By June 2020, he became chairman of the Integrity Committee, the council’s investigative arm.  Other signers of the letter were Republican Reps. Greg Steube and Matt Gaetz of Florida, Pete Sessions of Texas, Clay Higgins of Louisiana, Thomas Massie of Kentucky, Dan Bishop of North Carolina, Harriet Hageman of Wyoming, and Glenn Grothman of Wisconsin.  Gail Ennis resigned on May 31 as inspector general of the Social Security Administration amid an inquiry by the Integrity Committee. Ennis was nominated by Trump in 2019 and confirmed by the Senate. Her departure occurred just weeks after Railroad Retirement Board Inspector General Martin Dickman was fired after being in the role for 30 years.  ‘Dysfunction, Dishonesty by Senior Leadership’ A few months after Cuffari started his job, his office referred allegations against three senior employees in his office to the Integrity Committee in October and November of 2019.   Allegations of wrongdoing included fraud, misconduct, retaliation, and abuse of authority. Some of those were said to be by employees using office resources to try to prevent the Senate from confirming Cuffari. He was nevertheless confirmed on a voice vote.  He was “faced with an untenable structure and apparent insubordination” from employees, according to a federal lawsuit filed by Cuffari against CIGIE in March 2023. “In his many years of military and other government service, Mr. Cuffari had never encountered this level of dysfunction and dishonesty by senior leadership,” the federal court complaint says. “There was a level of withholding information, flouting rules, disrespect for proper authority and risk of disgrace to the organization he was unfamiliar with.”  Late last year, a federal court in the Eastern District of Virginia dismissed a lawsuit brought by Cuffari and his senior staff at the DHS Office of Inspector General against the council, alleging harassment from baseless inquiries.  The lawsuit alleged the Integrity Committee declined to investigate certain misconduct that the inspector general found among certain employees at the DHS Office of Inspector General.  In retaliation, employees in his office filed complaints against Cuffari with the Integrity Committee, which investigated the complaints thoroughly, according to the lawsuit. The court dismissed the lawsuit finding the plaintiffs had not shown harm, such as losing their jobs. The plaintiffs’ lawsuit claimed the damage was that responding to frivolous investigations from the Integrity Committee drained time and resources from conducting real investigations into waste, fraud, or abuse at the Department of Homeland Security.  In November 2019, the Integrity Committee informed the Homeland Security Office of Inspector General it would not take further action on the allegations. Upon receiving the complaints, the Integrity Committee staffer said that Cuffari “has to stop filing these complaints,” according to the federal lawsuit. That was “apparently in reference to the documented allegations against various OIG senior staff.”   Independent, Third-Party Investigation So, in May 2020, the DHS Office of Inspector General contracted with the law firm of Wilmer Cutler Pickering Hale and Dorr LLP to do an independent investigation of the three employees in lieu of an Integrity Committee investigation.  Better known as Wilmer-Hale, it’s a Washington law firm with a Democrat-leaning reputation, but a firm that has worked for both parties.  Wilmer-Hale’s investigation substantiated many of the allegations and provided evidence to back up others and issued a report. The Wilmer-Hale report also determined that the then-vice chairperson of the Council of the Inspectors General on Integrity and Efficiency, Allison Lerner—now its chairperson, as well as the inspector general of the National Science Foundation—encouraged certain actions of the three employees. “Allison Lerner, who while serving as vice chair of CIGIE, encouraged two OIG DHS senior executives to use government resources and their official titles to interfere in the Senate advice-and-consent process in hopes of scuttling IG Cuffari’s nomination,” the lawsuit says.  It goes on to say, “Despite Ms. Lerner having been personally involved in an attempt to defeat IG Cuffari’s nomination, she did not recuse herself from investigations into Mr. Cuffari.” The final Wilmer-Hale report was provided to the Integrity Committee, which still did not investigate the matter.  After the Wilmer-Hale report, that’s when the retaliation occurred, Cuffari’s lawsuit alleges. “In response to IG Cuffari’s attempts to reestablish order within DHS OIG, he was faced with a relentless stream of meritless retaliatory complaints to the IC,” the lawsuit alleged. “The complaints initiated a series of IC investigations, follow-ups, and requests for supplementary information, which now total more than [38].” “The complaints baselessly alleged an endless series of transgressions by IG Cuffari, most of which have been closed with no action or any findings,” the lawsuit contends.  Others are still pending. Still, “responding even to these complaints took an inordinate amount of time and resources and interfered with IG Cuffari’s ability to perform his duties,” Cuffari’s lawsuit says. The Integrity Committee is still investigating whether it was proper to contract with Wilmer-Hale for the inquiry. Cuffari argues that in lieu of action by the Integrity Committee, an outside investigator was necessary because of interoffice conflicts of interest.  The Cuffari lawsuit contends that government employees and investigators are effectively immune from libel and slander.  “Because there is virtually no redress for a slanderous report, due process protections during the investigation and report-preparation stages are even more necessary and required,” the lawsuit says.  The facts didn’t add up for members of Congress.  “This chain of events and the Integrity Committee’s failure to act on these serious allegations is highly concerning, especially given that three of the implicated individuals remained in federal service,” the Biggs letter says.  The letter from Biggs and other GOP House members asks several questions, including: “Given the severity of the allegations made, why did the Integrity Committee decline to investigate in 2019?”  It also asked: “After a copy of the Wilmer-Hale report was provided to the Integrity Committee by DHS OIG, did the Integrity Committee review the report’s conclusions?” and “Has the Integrity Committee reconsidered any of its allegation-review procedures or thresholds for determining whether to open an investigation?” In this case, “the watchers of the watchdogs appear to have missed the mark,” Biggs said in a public statement separate from the letter.  “They operate as a black box with what they appear to believe is unchecked power, providing little information to Congress on their actions,” Biggs continued. “Rather than creating layer upon layer upon layer of bureaucratic oversight, we should consider whether Congress is the more appropriate oversight authority, in line with checks and balances created by our Founding Fathers.” For their part, House Democrats, in the minority, have said they are also investigating Cuffari on matters related to his employees. Who is Kevin Winters? Winters, who heads the Integrity Committee of CIGIE, became its chairman in June 2020. He was named to the panel just months after his appointment as inspector general of Amtrak. Previously, he was the deputy chair of the committee, beginning in May 2019, just months after taking his job at Amtrak.  The DHS inspector general’s federal lawsuit makes a point about the high number of bureaucratically appointed individuals with power to target Senate-confirmed presidentially appointed inspectors general.  “Indeed, currently, four of the six members” of the Integrity Committee—including Chairman Winters—are not Senate-confirmed or presidential appointees, Cuffari and his senior staff contend in the lawsuit, arguing that it further removes the public and a level of accountability from the process.  Winters succeeded Amtrak Inspector General Tom Howard, who had held the job for four decades. He was previously a deputy inspector general and counsel starting in 2015 for NASA’s Office of Inspector General. Winters previously had a career in the U.S. Marine Corps, from which he retired as a brigadier general. In the Marines, he worked as both a prosecutor and defense counsel in military trials, and taught at the U.S. Army’s Judge Advocate General School in Charlottesville, Virginia, and the Defense Institute of International Legal Studies. According to his biography on the Amtrak website, Winters was at the Defense Department on Sept. 11, 2001, when Islamist terrorists flew planes into both the World Trade Center and the Pentagon.  While at NASA, he helped oversee an audit that discovered fraud affecting the space agency’s programs. The NASA watchdog coordinated with the Justice Department and recovered more than $650 million in civil and criminal fraud-related penalties.  Neither the Council of the Inspectors General on Integrity and Efficiency, nor the Amtrak Office of Inspector General replied to numerous phone and email inquiries from The Daily Signal for this article last week and this week. National Science Foundation Inspector General Lerner’s office responded to The Daily Signal, but only to say it had no comment.

Scientific American: Homeschooling Parents Need to Undergo Background Checks

Scientific American: Homeschooling Parents Need to Undergo Background Checks

There’s a growing list of states adopting universal school choice, and Louisiana is the most recent addition. “The LA Gator Program puts parents in the driver’s seat and gives every child the opportunity for a great education,” said Louisiana Gov. Jeff Landry, a Republican. “When parents are committed to the value of their child’s education, government should never get in the way.” And it seems many of these parents are moving to homeschooling to ensure their children are getting a well-rounded, trustworthy education. This, however, has received pushback. The editors of Scientific American magazine published an article last month claiming “children deserve uniform standards in homeschooling.” And what does this look like? The idea the editors had in mind is that “home­school parents could be required to pass an initial background check, as every state requires for all K-12 teachers.” Scientific American is concerned that the growth of homeschooling is a “problem” since it’s hard to keep track of how many children are being homeschooled these days. “Some children may not be receiving any instruction at all,” the editors wrote. “In the worst cases, homeschooling hides abuse.” But for education experts like Molly Macek of the Mackinac Center for Public Policy, the article is a false alarm. The “venerable magazine’s call for restrictions isn’t based on science,” she wrote. Macek continued, “Most would find it hard to argue with the editors’ opening argument that ‘children deserve a safe and robust education.’ But they go on to use this as the reason that homeschooling should be tracked and regulated in the U.S. This conclusion just doesn’t hold water based on the evidence from studies they cite.” Family Research Council President Tony Perkins considered Scientific American’s push against homeschooling on Thursday’s episode of “Washington Watch” with Mike Farris, founder of the Home School Legal Defense Association. Perkins asked, “[W]hy is the Left so threatened by parents leading their children’s education?” And more specifically, how should we respond to it all? Farris replied, the “editors of the Scientific American need a basic course in constitutional law.” He continued, “The federal government has no jurisdiction to implement the kind of plan that they are calling for,” which happens to be “a very draconian plan.” Ultimately, it seems “their motive and their operational plan … would be just, on its face, unconstitutional.” Farris pointed out that one of the reasons for their argument is that parents who choose to homeschool often “teach their kids about creation as opposed to evolution,” which “is something, clearly, that people have the right to do.” And so, he added, for the editors of Scientific American to have a problem with that says a lot about their motivations. “It’s almost laughable,” Perkins noted. He recalled the editors’ call for parents to undergo background checks. “[A] background check?” he hooted, “to teach your own children?” Farris concurred, stating it’s “amazing” how parents can be with their children all day, “but if you want to teach them about math and reading and science in the Bible, then you have to have a background check. It just doesn’t make any sense.” Farris also drew attention to the concern Scientific American highlighted about children being abused. As he explained, there are unfortunate cases of homeschool children who are being “seriously abused.” However, “The reality is, in the vast majority of cases like this … the government officials knew about the problems with the family long before there was ever any claim to be a homeschooling family.” And so, when a homeschooling family gets caught up in abuse accusations, it’s often the case that “the officials use that as a cover-up for the fact that they failed to do any reasonable inquiry into the family when they first found out about the problems.” Farris went on to explain the harsh reality of how “the number of cases of sexual abuse of children by public school teachers dwarfs the number of any claim relative to homeschooling, just in sheer volume of numbers. … It’s just far, far greater.” They also claim, Perkins added, that homeschool “kids are being educationally deprived.” But if you look at the statistics and “the test scores from the public schools in the last few years,” the scores are the lowest they’ve been in decades in both math and reading. “The reality is,” Farris urged, “homeschooling works very, very well.” He went on, “[P]eople say that the test scores are not conclusive. [But] they’re conclusive of this: that homeschooling performs adequately. That’s absolutely conclusive. I think that the test scores also show that homeschooling is the best form of education.” And while he acknowledged there’s “more debate that could be made about that” final claim, he reasoned that homeschooling parents “don’t have to prove that we’re the best. We just have to prove that we’re at least as good as the public schools.” Perkins also emphasized that, “given the woke ideology that’s invaded schools,” it’s becoming less and less difficult to prove that point. “But at the bottom line of this … is [that] it’s a clash of worldviews.” And more specifically, it’s a “hatred for a biblical worldview.” Farris agreed, noting a common reason opponents give is “they want all children in America to be indoctrinated in their worldview, not the parents’ worldview.” Perkins raised the question: When “parents make that type of investment in their education by homeschooling them,” what are the practical benefits? According to Farris, the reason most parents choose to homeschool is because “children get their values from whoever they spend the majority of their time with.” As such, parents want their children to embrace their values. As Farris detailed, “[O]ur kids are not cookie cutters of either [my wife] or I in any respect, but they share all of our core values about God … the Bible … America … freedom … [and] the principles of protecting human life. We’ve effectively transmitted our values to our kids, and they’ve turned out just fine academically.” Not to mention, he added, “We have a very close family. We have consistent values. We have high academic achievement. I can’t ask for anything better. And it’s just the best thing we ever did for our family.” Perkins emphasized, “Homeschool families are close, and when we talk about close,” it’s because “they stick together. … [T]here’s a bond that takes place through that process of learning about life together.” Given this reality, Perkins clarified that an attack such as what’s coming from Scientific American isn’t new. But “what do we need to do to make sure we don’t lose this God-given right to teach our own children?” For Farris, it’s about staying “nimble and organized.” He discussed how a lot of people reasonably worry about their children’s schooling, which gives homeschooling families an opportunity to show how great of a practice it is. Homeschooling brings a “kind of assurance and affinity,” he concluded. “I think we’re in a really strong position. We just got to keep putting the pedal to the metal and not letting any lackadaisical spirit come in. We got to defend our liberty day in, day out.” Originally published by The Washington Stand The post Scientific American: Homeschooling Parents Need to Undergo Background Checks appeared first on The Daily Signal.

Battle Over DEI Is Far From Over

Battle Over DEI Is Far From Over

The struggle against ideologies that seek to divide America advances in fits and starts. This month, we saw great progress in the introduction of a bill in Congress to ban diversity, equity, and inclusion mandates throughout the federal government. But it was a different story a week later, when lawmakers were lobbing rhetorical softballs at the DEI-loving head of the Smithsonian Institution. The comprehensive Dismantle DEI Act, if passed and enacted, would systematically eliminate diversity, equity, and inclusion programs throughout the federal bureaucracy and among federal contractors. The bill was introduced in the Senate by Sen. JD Vance, R-Ohio, and in the House by Rep. Michael Cloud, R-Texas, co-sponsored by 20 other House Republicans. That is not a small part of the economy. According to the U.S. Treasury Department, “federal spending was equal to 23% of the total gross domestic product (GDP), or economic activity, of the United States” in fiscal year 2022. The Vance-Cloud bill takes a blowtorch to DEI. It would dismantle DEI programs (such as the “anti-racist” trainings that have cropped up at offices and schools and all other areas of American life), rescind President Joe Biden’s many DEI executive orders, outlaw DEI loyalty pledges, etc. The bill has no chance of passing and being signed into law while the Democrats have the Senate and Biden is president. But it becomes an important stick in the ground. If former President Donald Trump is elected president in November, this bill should be his blueprint, something he already championed as president. So far, so good. But DEI is just one front in the fight against ideologies that divide us mostly along racial and sexual lines, based on race and gender theories that are Marxist in their origin. Another important front in the culture wars is that ultimate cultural institution: museums. Museums have become the battle theater of those who want to “decolonize” the culture—that is, strip it of any reverence for America. The decolonizers want to turn the museums into institutions propagating a cultural counternarrative. The Smithsonian is America’s museum, for better or for worse (it used to be for better, now it’s for worse). And while Republicans are giving signs that they finally get the DEI part, they are missing in action on the museum part. Smithsonian Institution Secretary Lonnie Bunch’s hearing June 18 before the Senate Rules and Administration Committee was really a replay of the mutual admiration society. Only one Republican showed up, Sen. Deb Fischer, R-Neb., the ranking member, and her most probing question of Bunch was about the schedule for repatriating native art to tribes. Bunch assured her that the Smithsonian Institution’s repatriation schedule is “very robust. … We want to be able to return what the communities really want.” For those wondering what this is about, a Biden administration rule has given the nation’s 574 federally recognized Indian tribes effective veto power over what museums can exhibit. If they demand that a museum send back a cultural item, the museum will have to comply. New York’s American Museum of Natural History will close two halls with Indian exhibitions. This is not something conservatives should want to expedite. They should, in fact, fight this nonsense. There were no Republicans at the hearing asking about two new museums based on identity politics: the Latino and women’s museums. The first has been criticized by myself and others as a “woke indoctrination factory” that aims to fill Hispanic Americans with grievances, and the second will be no better. But there were Democrats heaping praise on the effort, and asking for more of the same. Sen. Mark Warner, D-Va., asked Bunch what the Smithsonian planned to do about the “African diaspora,” that is, Americans born in Africa, or who are the children of such immigrants. They encounter great success in America, but apparently the Smithsonian also will have to instill victimhood in them. The African diaspora “is really important” to the Smithsonian, Bunch assured Warner. To which Warner, not missing a multicultural beat, replied: “What are you doing on the South Asian diaspora?” Bunch is a soft-spoken, likable individual, but he’s embraced all these ideologies. DEI, he has written, is “integral to excellence in museum practice. FULL STOP.” DEI, in fact, should “shape museums,” he added. Bunch was also an early and enthusiastic supporter of the Black Lives Matter organizations, which were set up by Marxists to transform society. In 2014, at the height of the BLM riots in Ferguson, Missouri, when Bunch was director of the National Museum of African American History and Culture, he assembled his curators and ordered them to collect BLM artifacts and create exhibits. Black Lives Matter, he said, needed to organize for the long term and come up with a legislative strategy. In 2020, during the costliest riots in American history, Bunch said that “protest is the highest form of patriotism.” The fight to take back the considerable cultural ground that has been lost to the Left is too often derided as the “culture wars” by those who want to meet no resistance in their scorched-earth advance. And it is obviously not for the weak-hearted. Stripping out DEI is a great, brave step. But watch what happens with the museums if you want to know who’s winning.

Instagram urges users to reconsider following Tucker Carlson in 'insane warning'

Tucker Carlson has over 3.7 million followers on Instagram. On X, he has nearly 13 million followers. While his following on X is likely far more significant because it is the ostensibly less censorious platform where Carlson routinely uploads episodes of his new show, there may be another reason to account for the delta. Ashton DeGroot, Blaze Media's social media content coordinator, observed Monday that following Carlson is no easy feat on the Meta platform. A perfunctory search for Carlson failed to turn up his verified account. Instead, impersonators and fan accounts flooded the results. After multiple tries, it appeared clear that Carlson's verified account would only appear if his exact handle, @TuckerCarlson, was entered into the search bar. Upon finding Carlson's account, DeGroot found that Instagram put up one last barrier to engagement, imploring prospective followers to reconsider. The pop-up reads, "Are you sure you want to follow tuckercarlson?" "This account has repeatedly posted false information that was reviewed by independent fact-checkers or it went against our Community Guidelines," added the pop-up. Blaze News did not encounter similar warning messages when test-following the accounts of various liberal personalities and publications, which have been outed peddling falsehoods and manufactured narratives. 'Luckily, people are on to this.' The question is not, for instance, posed to potential followers of Newsweek, despite its loose relationship with the truth. Just last month, Newsweek falsely reported that Tucker Carlson had partnered with a Russian state-owned news channel, when in fact the outlet had effectively appropriated footage of Carlson's without legal permission. Users will not similarly encounter this warning when attempting to follow Jussie Smollett, who lied incessantly about being attacked by Trump supporters in Chicago when in fact he had paid two Nigerian-born brothers to stage a fake hate crime. "I have never seen this warning before on any account," DeGroot told Blaze News. "I was following a lot of people for [a Blaze Media account], and out of the 100+ that I followed, Tucker was the only one for whom this came up." Screenshots taken 6/24/2024. When asked for comment about Instagram's apparent suppression effort, Neil Patel, co-founder and CEO of the Tucker Carlson Network, told Blaze News, "Tucker has one of the largest audiences in all of media. Millions of people rely on him because they know he's trying his best to tell the truth." "This combination of scale and independence is a serious threat to established power," continued Patel. "That is the only reason why people can't even go to a Tucker Carlson birthday post on Instagram without some insane warning." "Luckily, people are on to this," Patel added, noting that they've elected to sidestep "big tech censors" like Instagram altogether and go straight to Tucker Carlson's website. DeGroot similarly suspects that Instagram's efforts to dissuade people from hearing Carlson out will strike a contrarian nerve in people already familiar with him. However, "for someone who is on the fence, this could be an effective tool to keep them away." 'Today it's Tucker; tomorrow it's Blaze Media.' "Ultimately, this is a manifestation of what Glenn [Beck] has been saying for years: The left will push conservative voices out of the public square and into the digital ghetto," continued DeGroot. "We are seeing that now with this. You will not stumble upon Tucker's content, and one day you will not stumble upon Blaze Media's content because it goes against the approved narrative and it makes the lives of those in power harder when more people hear our side." "As a someone who works in social media and has seen the weekly, sometimes daily, changes that have taken place within Meta as we have gotten closer to the election, I feel confident in saying that this is just the beginning of the silencing of conservative voices," said DeGroot. "Today it's Tucker; tomorrow it's Blaze Media. This is why we implore the listener to become a subscriber. When you subscribe, you have direct access to the content. There is no middle man getting in the way — for now, that is. Blaze News requested comment from Facebook on specifics related to the alleged false information Carlson shared or the guidelines he allegedly violated warranting the pop-up warning on his account. Blaze also asked about the efficacy of such suppression attempts but did not receive a reply by deadline. This is hardly the first time Instagram or its parent company has erroneously labeled Carlson a peddler of falsehoods. When still at Fox News in 2020, Carlson interviewed Chinese virologist Li-Meng Yan, who suggested that COVID-19 "is not from nature." While the federal government has since acknowledged the strong likelihood that the virus was made in a lab, specifically the Wuhan lab where researchers took ill in late 2019 while conducting dangerous experiments on coronaviruses, Instagram rushed to label Carlson's interview "False Information" on its platform.

School’s out in Gaza. Here’s how students are spending their summer. (Viewer discretion advised.)

Put Hamas and Hitler into a Venn diagram, and you’ll find that the two have far more commonalities than differences. One of those commonalities is how children spend their summers. Mark Levin plays a disturbing clip showing the similarities between Hitler youth summer camps and Hamas summer camps – and ultimately the way both exploit children in warfare against the Jewish nation. Warning: The following video contains disturbing and graphic content. How Hamas Takes After HITLER When it Comes to Training Teens www.youtube.com “School's out in Gaza, and for thousands of teenagers here, this is how the holidays are spent: in preparation for the next conflict with Israel,” the commentator says over footage of young boys in combat training. Similarly, “the Nazi youth movement took over all the summer camps” because “Hitler realized that youngsters were the future of his movement.” The German children who attended these summer camps “learned to use a compass and a map, to cross enemy territory, to camouflage themselves, and to make covert approaches.” The Gazan boys are training to use firearms and “rehearse a cross-border raid to kidnap Israeli soldiers” at their summer camp, which is run by Hamas, the terrorist group that rules over Gaza. “The similarities are chilling and horrifying.” “Our media should be teaching us – all of us – exactly who these people are, what they're learning, what's in their books, what's in their movies, and then we will have a very good grasp of reality,” says Levin.
