City officials in Washington‚ D.C.‚ said a new homeless shelter at a former George Washington University dorm will be delayed at least six months amid a lawsuit from residents of the area. The homeless shelter at the vacant former dorm will now open in the spring or summer rather than this year‚ officials with the city’s Department of Human Services said Wednesday. George Washington University sold the building‚ called the Aston‚ to the D.C. government for $27.5 million in August. The vacant former dorm is a 67‚000-square-foot building at 1129 New Hampshire Avenue NW in the nation’s capital. One reason for the shelter project’s delay is contract negotiations with a services provider for the shelter‚ officials told The Washington Post. Meanwhile though‚ the project has not been popular with residents. A group called the West End DC Community Association filed a lawsuit last month to block the homeless shelter‚ arguing that the city’s plan to offer medical services at the shelter violates zoning rules. The lawsuit claims D.C. “ignored and/or intentionally circumvented” its own zoning laws by planning to build a medical clinic in a residential zone. “There has been a lawsuit‚ a federal complaint. So that has added to our plan‚ having to respond to things that maybe we did not anticipate having to respond to. But nevertheless‚ we have experienced some delays‚” the city’s Human Services chief of staff David Ross said Wednesday night at a meeting hosted by the local Advisory Neighborhood Commission. The shelter will offer medical services for people with chronic conditions such as liver disease‚ but the shelter is “is absolutely not a medical facility‚” Ross said.

The same community group previously filed another lawsuit against the sale of the building in July‚ but withdrew that suit once the sale was completed. Washington‚ D.C.‚ has struggled with rising homelessness in recent months. Homelessness had been declining in the D.C. metro region since 2019‚ but it rose 18% this year to nearly 9‚000 homeless people‚ according to a May report by the Metropolitan Washington Council of Governments. Other cities are facing a more dire homeless crisis. On the West Coast‚ San Francisco‚ Los Angeles‚ and San Diego have all seen a rise in homelessness in recent years.

A newly released poll that was conducted at the start of the month by the Arab World for Research and Development found that the overwhelming majority of Palestinians supported the October 7 terrorist attacks against Israel and hate the United States. The survey comes after Palestinian terrorists with Hamas invaded Israel in an unprecedented terrorist attack last month. Palestinian women and children engaged in the attacks as approximately 3‚000 terrorists slaughtered 1‚200 innocent Israelis‚ wounding 5‚300 more‚ and kidnapping more than 240. The poll surveyed 668 Palestinians in the West Bank and Gaza Strip as Israel conducted military operations to root out the terrorists responsible for the attacks. CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILY WIRE APP Key findings from the poll: 86.7% now have a “decreased” “conviction” of wanting a “peaceful solution” with Israel. Only 9.1% have an “increased” conviction. 68% said that their support for a two-state solution has “decreased.” Only 22.9% said that it increased. 89.5% say that their “conviction” for wanting to coexist with Israelis has “decreased.” Only 7.2% say that it has increased. 98% say that their “sense of pride as a Palestinian” has increased since the terrorist attacks‚ including 94.3% who said that they felt that way to a “great extent.” 75% of Palestinians directly said that they supported the brutal October 7 terrorist attacks — in which babies were beheaded or burned alive in ovens‚ entire families were massacred‚ women and young girls were violently raped‚ soldiers beheaded‚ and more — against Israel. 59.3% said that they “extremely support[ed]” the attacks. 76% said that they viewed the Hamas terrorist organization positively while only 22.3% viewed Hamas negatively. 97.3% viewed Israel very negatively. 97.6% viewed the U.S. very negatively. 84.2% viewed the Islamic Jihad terrorist organization positively. 64% viewed Iran negatively (which may be because they want Iran to join the fight against Israel). The Palestinians mostly hated all other surrounding countries and groups‚ including the U.N.‚ E.U.‚ International Red Cross‚ Russia‚ China‚ Islamic countries‚ media entities‚ and more.
