Harvard University has canceled a summer program with a Palestinian university whose faculty and students have endorsed and collaborated with Hamas and other terror groups, a spokesman told The Daily Wire. Birzeit University, which called for “glory for the martyrs” after Hamas’s October 7 terrorist massacre in Israel, was slated to host Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health’s “Palestine Social Medicine Course” from July to August. But the school has moved the program to Jordan, a spokesman told The Daily Wire, “due to security concerns in the West Bank.” According to the program’s website, the “three-week intensive summer course is designed to introduce students to the social, structural, political, and historical aspects that determine Palestinian health beyond the biological basis of disease.”  The program kicks off this week and ends August 17. Students on the trip will learn from health practitioners, academics, and activists about topics including “Settler colonialism and its manifestations in Palestine” and “Health and racism,” the website states.  Harvard’s relationship with Birzeit University came under scrutiny after The Daily Wire revealed the Palestinian university’s connections with terrorists and anti-Semites, prompting a group of lawmakers to call for an end to the partnership. On October 10, Birzeit University’s school’s X account called for “glory for the martyrs” and repeatedly declared support for student encampments on American college campuses whose members harassed Jewish students. The account also mourned “with great pride the martyr,” Aysar Safi, a student killed in a combat mission against the IDF, who was a member of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP), according to the terrorist group’s website. Birzeit posted a photo of Safi’s on-campus funeral, where attendees were seen holding flags of the student wing of the PFLP and Hamas’s al-Qassam brigade. Hanan Ashrawi, chairman of the university’s board of trustees, denied that Hamas sexually assaulted Israeli civilians on October 7. Ashrawi has also defended Hezbollah, and endorsed the lynching of Israeli soldiers, according to CAMERA UK. On October 11, Ashrawi said Israel’s “spin machine” was “manufacturing horrific lies in an orchestrated smear campaign claiming rape, slaughtering babies, beheadings, burnings alive,” and claimed Western media “immediately swallowed & regurgitated such vile slander.”  In March, Ashrawi denied a United Nations report that concluded Hamas committed sexual violence, stating that the report was invalid because it primarily included interviews with Israelis. The Palestinian school describes itself as a “thorn in the side of the occupation” and says it is committed to making an impact through “resistance.” Birzeit has a building named after Kamal Nasser, the leader of Black September, the terror group that kidnapped and killed 11 Israeli athletes at the 1972 Munich Olympics. Birzeit also has annual on-campus military parades where students honor Hamas and PFLP with mock suicide belts and rockets, and chants calling to “blow up the settler’s head,” the Middle East Media Research Institute reported. The university’s student body has closely aligned itself with terrorist groups. During the school’s 2023 student council elections, the Hamas-affiliated Islamic Bloc won 25 of the 51 seats. The PFLP-affiliated group picked up six seats in the race, which had a 77 percent voter turnout, according to the Jerusalem Post. Many Birzeit students have been arrested for assisting and joining terror groups. Last week, five members of Birzeit’s student council were arrested for attempting to carry out a shooting terror attack on behalf of Hamas. The group had an assault rifle and thousands of dollars in cash from Hamas at the time of arrest, the Times of Israel reported. In 2022, Birzeit students were arrested for helping to launder money for terrorist attacks from Gaza to Hamas members in Turkey, The Jerusalem Post reported. On X, Birzeit said 140 students and four staff members were in prison in April.

If you’ve been following Celine Dion’s journey, you understand exactly why her recent performance at the Paris Olympics is historic. Back in 2022, the legendary singer was diagnosed with a neurological disorder called Stiff Person Syndrome. The symptoms that accompany this disorder, including muscle spasms, made it impossible to continue her career. Still, Dion remained determined. In fact, she said many times that she would find a way to sing again — and now she has! The last time Dion performed was in 2019 for a concert in London. For this reason, and more, her performance during the opening ceremonies of the Olympics made for an emotional moment. Now, the icon herself has shared her thoughts and feelings in a social media post, accompanied by the photo below. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Céline Dion (@celinedion) “I’m honored to have performed tonight, for the Paris 2024 Opening Ceremony, and so full of joy to be back in one of my very favorite cities!” Dion writes. “Most of all, I’m so happy to be celebrating these amazing athletes, with all their stories of sacrifice and determination, pain and perseverance.” Fans Celebrates Celine Dion’s Triumphant Return to the Stage During the Olympics Commentators from all walks of life were greatly moved by Dion’s performance. This includes fellow singer, Kelly Clarkson, who couldn’t help but get emotional when asked for her thoughts.

But her celebration post didn’t solely discuss her own talents — she also took note of how proud she is of the athletes competing in the Olympics. This is how the Eiffel Tower looked while Céline Dion was singing pic.twitter.com/gZe92M4f2g— celine vocals (@CelineOracle) July 28, 2024 Considering all of the obstacles these athletes face, she no doubt feels a sense of comradery between them, despite working in two very different fields. “All of you have been so focused on your dream, and whether or not you take home a medal, I hope that being here means that it has come true for you!” Dion’s post continues. “You should all be so proud, we know how hard you have worked to be the best of the best. Stay focused, keep going, my heart is with you!” You can find the source of this story’s featured image here!

Taking a passenger’s dog for a walk isn’t usually part of an airline pilot’s job describtion, but one sweet man decided to do it anyway! A woman was traveling with her four-legged friend when nature called. Unfortunately, they had already boarded the plane and their flight was being delayed for over two hours. During this time, no one was allowed to leave the aircraft. It looked like this pup was going to have to hold it! Thankfully, that’s when the pilot stepped in and took the dog for a short bathroom walk. Another passenger caught the stroll on camera through the airplane window, and the footage is way too sweet! Once the pooch had finished her business, the pilot brought her right back to her owner. @alisonwonderland Protect this man at all costs #dogtok #dog #plane #fyp ♬ Unlock it x better off alone – Roxi Audios “Our pilot offered to take this lady’s dog to the toilet while we were stuck on the runway for 2.5 hrs cos we weren’t allowed off,” wrote the passenger on social media. Commenters applauded this pilot for taking this poor dog for a little walk so that she wouldn’t be uncomfortable during the flight. “Doggo getting the VIP exclusive treatment,” one user joked. Another added, “@United Airlines one of your pilots going above and beyond!” This dog’s owner was touched by the pilot’s gesture. Screengrab from TikTok As it happens, the dog’s owner, Katie O’Reagan, also came across this viral video of her pooch getting a walk from the pilot. “Lacey and I made it home safe and sound,” she wrote in the comments. Katie also shared some photos and videos from the heartwarming moment on her own social media account. She added an image of the pilot actually holding the pup in his arms because she was too scared to leave the airplace! It was so thoughtful of this pilot to take this dog for a walk outside during the flight delay. Lacey and her owner are very grateful for the act of kindness!

When most people think of Olympic athletes, they picture adults. However, there are some young teens out there who are giving them a run for their money—like Gabi Brito, a 13-year-old swimmer who qualified for the 2024 Olympic Trials.   Record Breaker At just 13 years old, this California local is breaking records. While swimming in the race above, she became the fastest 13-year-old to swim the 50-meter freestyle in Southern California when she finished in an incredible 25.42 seconds. Not only did that impressive time earn her many cheers from her loved ones, but it also a spot in the 2024 Paris Olympic trials. Although we were all impressed with her skills, Gabi herself couldn’t believe it. She said she was surprised that she made the cut. She shared thoughts on how she believed her sister should be the one who qualified. Gabi has been swimming with her sister since the age of 5. Now, both girls swim for the Beach City Swim Team. While her sister did not make the cut, she was very supportive of Gabi. Olympic Trials Following these trials, Gabi and her family went to Indianapolis in June to officially earn a spot on Team USA. Although she is a phenomenal swimmer with impressive speeds, she unfortunately did not qualify for a lane at the Paris Summer Olympics. While the 13-year-old swimmer maintained a positive attitude about the situation, it is clear that her competitive nature and dream of making it to the Olympics are still in full force. Even though she told Fox 11, “I’m in no rush. I’m just going to take it step by step,” we have no doubt she will be working very hard every day. We fully expect to see her again in 2028, when she admits she is hopeful to make the semifinals and the final cuts. Best of luck, Gabi. We are all rooting for you.

A little boy with cystic fibrosis had one dream—to be a garbage truck driver. So the Make-A-Wish foundation stepped in and made that dream come true. Four-year-old Alan has loved garbage trucks for as long as his family can remember. He is on the weekly lookout for trucks, and he even dressed as a garbage man for Halloween. But on July 10, Alan went one step further when Make-A-Wish and his local waste management crew made him an honorary crew member. A Day In The Life of A Garbage Truck Driver Anthony Nguyen Pexels Alan got to experience the daily real-life routine of a garbage man, which started at the break of dawn. One of the Waste Management drivers told WHDH, “He said he was a little tired when he first started. I’m like, well, trash men start very early in the morning, so you’re going to be tired.” That small reality check was not enough to curb Alan’s enthusiasm, though. After getting used to his early hours, he got to clock in with a special timecard and learn what it takes to be a garbage man. Alan got to experience all the best parts of being a garbage truck man, like working the trash compactor. His day ended with a special send-off as he got to ride alongside another driver. Mix that with the crowd of community members that gathered to thank Alan for his hard work, and I’d say it was a pretty incredible day. The amazing experience was all thanks to the Make-A-Wish Foundation, and Alan wasn’t the only person who got to enjoy the day. His younger brother, Theo, who also has cystic fibrosis, rode alone, too. His mom comments on how this day, and seeing the support they got from the community will always stick with her. Cystic fibrosis affects 40,000 children and adults across the U.S. and can target key organs in the body. However, Alan’s mom mentions how it was nice for one day to think about nothing except celebrating her beautiful boy. We are so happy Alan got to live out his dream.

Many Christians struggle with this sin, which has severe consequences on the mind.

Where your treasure is, there your heart is also. This biblical principle means prioritizing her needs without going into debt or overspending.
