It’s been one year since Hamas invaded Israel and began a bloody and highly controversial war that seems to be catapulting forward with no end in sight. While the media paints a picture of cruel Israelis inflicting terror on innocent Palestinians and a U.S. administration that just wants diplomacy and peace, Mark Levin knows the truth: Israel can and should defend itself, and the Biden administration is enabling Iran, the head of the snake in the Middle East. — (@) “[Israel] was attacked by Hamas; it attacks Hamas. It was attacked by Hezbollah; it attacks Hezbollah. It was attacked by Iran; it attacks Iran,” Levin tells Glenn Beck. While Israel supporters say that the tiny country is being bombarded on seven sides, Levin says it’s actually eight sides when you factor in how the United States is withholding weapons Israel needs to defend itself. “The reason we're withholding 2,000-pound bombs from Israel (they don't use those in Gaza) [is] because we don't want them to take out those nuclear sites, and they need 2,000-pound bombs to do that. ... Biden told the Iranians today that he's advising the Israelis not to hit the nuclear sites and not to hit the oil sites,” he explains, adding, "Those are the sites they need to hit.” This response by the U.S. government and the fact that it’s “giving $157 million to Lebanon,” which is “controlled by Hezbollah,” is only “strengthening this genocidal regime that brutalizes its own people.” “Iran is taking over Iraq; Iran has destroyed Yemen; Iran and Russia control Syria; Iran controls Lebanon, and all our pressure is on the state of Israel,” says Levin.

The lame-duck Democrat district attorney of the largest county in Texas has endorsed the re-election campaign of Republican U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz, appearing in an ad to discuss their shared goal of protecting Texans against criminal illegal aliens.After eight years as district attorney of Harris County, Texas, which includes most of Houston, Democrat Kimberly Ogg has fallen out of favor with her party. Not only did she doggedly pursue criminal indictments against high-level staff members of County Judge Lina Hidalgo in connection with COVID funding, but she has also strongly opposed the "catch-and-release" policies implemented by the Biden-Harris administration.'Democrats and Republicans must work together to solve Texans' problems now.'In July, Ogg and Cruz penned an op-ed together suggesting that these border policies apparently gave two Venezuelan nationals the opportunity to murder 12-year-old Jocelyn Nungaray of Houston."Both men charged with Jocelyn’s murder had just recently entered Texas illegally and been captured in El Paso, where they were enrolled in the 'Alternatives to Detention' program," Ogg and Cruz wrote. "This meant they were released into the interior of the United States, despite the availability of ICE detention center beds, where they could have been held until their immigration court hearings. This program did not protect Jocelyn. In fact, such 'catch and release' policies don’t protect anyone."The following month, Ogg officially endorsed Cruz in his re-election race against U.S. Rep. Colin Allred (D-Texas), claiming that curtailing violent crime was "bigger than partisanship."Now, Ogg appears in a new ad for Cruz, similarly touting their cooperative efforts to prevent criminal illegal aliens from wreaking havoc on American soil.As "the top law enforcement official in Harris County," Ogg insists in the video that she is "voting for Ted Cruz because he's working to keep Texans safe." "Ted introduced legislation that would keep violent illegal aliens behind bars until trial," Ogg continues, referring to the Justice for Jocelyn Act, which would effectively counteract catch-and-release."Democrats and Republicans must work together to solve Texans' problems now," Ogg adds in the ad. "Our safety is on the line."Ogg's 30-second pitch for Cruz can be seen here.Ogg may be the "top law enforcement official in Harris County" now, but she won't be for long. In March, challenger Sean Teare, who used to work for Ogg, trounced her in the Democratic primary. Her second term in office will expire on December 31.While Cruz and his team hope that Ogg's endorsement will sway independents and less partisan Democrats frustrated by the problems at the border, state Democrat leaders aren't buying it."Because of Kim Ogg’s divisive tenure as DA, Harris County voters resoundingly rejected her by 50 points. Everyone knows that outside of an election year, Ted Cruz has no real interest in working with both parties. Voters will reject this failed rebrand attempt come November," said Texas Democratic Party Executive Director Monique Alcala.Like Blaze News?

Archaeologists studying a ninth-century BC burial mound in the Siberian Republic of Tuva unearthed evidence of sacrificial rituals involving horses that have been linked to the horse-riding Scythian culture of the inner Asian steppes. These discoveries provide some fascinating data about the burial practices of the early Scythians, findings that were consistent with the practices of later Scythians. But they also reveal that the roots of this horse-obsessed culture can be found far to the east of the Pontic-Caspian steppes, which is generally recognized as the home territory of these peoples. In the early Scythian period, which dates to approximately the ninth through the seventh centuries BC, the culture constructed hundreds of large burial mounds in the Uyuk Valley in southern Siberia, in the geographical center of Asia. Excavations of these mounds have been revealing invaluable data about the funerary practices of the first Scythians, as they pertain to the burials of elites and the use of horses in various rituals and ceremonies associated with those burials.

King Arthur is undoubtedly one of the most enduringly popular heroes to come out of the medieval era, and he has meant many things to many people for hundreds of years. Over time, the mythology of Arthur grew as new stories were added to the existing ones and his fame spread throughout Britain and beyond. As a result of his popularity through the ages, King Arthur has come to represent various political causes as a symbolic figurehead, earning him a reputation as a champion of causes. From medieval Welsh rebels to 20th century anti-Nazi campaigners, people have rallied behind Arthur’s war banner since before the idea of “Britain” was even created. But was Arthur more than just a hero to these people? Britain has had countless heroes throughout its history, but is Arthur’s enduring and overwhelming popularity a sign that he has become something closer to a Messiah? After the cruel Saxons decimated the British and took their land from them, the survivors rallied behind their champion and fought to reclaim their lands, culminating in victory at the Battle of Badon Hill. This idealized image of the defender and savior of the British people against the evil greed of the conquering Saxons gathered momentum in the Middle Ages, as other authors took up the tradition. The 9th century eclectic history known as the Historia Brittonum paints the “magnanimous” Arthur as leader of all the kings of Britain and their armed forces, famously listing the 12 battles against the Saxons in which he was chosen to be their commander.
