Landmark UK report on Hamas massacre exposes worst attack on Jews since Holocaust

Published

on


A Holocaust survivor murdered at age 91 and a baby killed just 14 hours after birth are among the victims named in the U.K.’s October 7 Parliamentary Commission Report, the most detailed Western investigation to date into the Hamas-led attack on Israel. 

The 318-page report, chaired by British historian and peer Lord Andrew Roberts, documents the deaths of 1,182 people in a 48-hour period and provides extensive evidence of atrocities committed against civilians.

The report describes the assault as «a meticulously planned operation designed not only to kill but to terrorize through extreme brutality, looting and humiliation.» It includes testimonies of group rapes of women and girls, some of whom were murdered, as well as evidence of sexual violence committed against corpses. It details the targeting of children, including infants shot in strollers or burned alive.

Roberts, one of Britain’s leading historians and a member of the House of Lords, said that meeting Mandy Damari, the mother of hostage Emily Damari, «reduced me to tears.» Speaking in an interview with Fox News Digital, Lord Roberts recalled visiting Kibbutz Kfar Aza and hearing from families of victims while the fate of their loved ones was still unknown.

«At that time, of course, she didn’t know whether her 27-year-old daughter, Emily, was going to be released or not, or whether she was going to die in Gaza,» he said. «And I have a 25-year-old daughter, and so it was brought home incredibly powerfully to me.»

Despite the graphic nature of the material, Roberts emphasized that the report was deliberately limited to verified facts. «We actually made the report much less than it could have been, because we insisted on only putting things in that could be double-checked,» he said. «If we had put in things that we truly believe happened but couldn’t prove happened, we kept them out.»

When asked what motivated him to take on the project, Roberts said, «The denialism that has already cropped up,» including attempts to downplay or question the events of October 7. «It’s quite ironic that as well as celebrating and indulging in their most sort of disgusting fantasies by wearing GoPro cameras, they also seek to deny that the whole thing ever happened,» he said of Hamas.

«October 7 denial,» as the report refers to it, emerged almost immediately after the attacks and mirrors historical patterns of atrocity denial, despite the overwhelming evidence.

«I thought it was really important to get a big, thick, well-documented, irrefutable, fully footnoted document out there that will stand the test of time,» Roberts said.

The report includes accounts of mass looting, arson and mutilation. It states that terrorists used victims’ phones to send images to their families, booby-trapped corpses with grenades, and dragged bodies through Gaza. It confirms that «acts of sexual violence» occurred «across all sites» during the attack, and references forensic findings of partially or fully naked bodies.

Roberts said the attack was «not just spontaneous — it was a premeditated bloodlust.» He compared it to historical atrocities like the Rape of Nanjing in 1937. «Once Hamas got into a bloodlust, they were going out of their way to murder and kill absolutely anybody who came anywhere near them,» he said.

Despite the horrors, Roberts said the report also includes examples of heroism. For example, of Netta Epstein — a young man who «threw himself on a grenade to save his fiancée’s life» — Roberts said such acts «stand up with the great acts of heroism of any age.»

«We have the names in it of everybody who was killed … mostly with the circumstances of their deaths as well,» Roberts added: «Speaking as a historian, there are moments when one thinks of 9/11, or Pearl Harbor, various other attacks like this. They become part of history very quickly, but the actual individuals involved tend to get forgotten.»

Asked what role democracies should play in countering denialism, Roberts answered, «The first is properly to memorialize the victims,» he said. «The second … is to see this appalling act of barbarism for what it is, which is a complete denial of democracy, a blow struck deliberately against civilization, and … the most appalling act of racism.»

«Britain should be doing everything in its power to help Israel protect itself forever against such another attack,» Roberts clarified that he was expressing a personal view: «At the moment, it seems [the British government] is not doing that at all.»

In the report’s conclusion, Roberts and his colleagues wrote: «Our report will hopefully permit people to see such denials and justifications for what they really are: a perversion of and rejection of human decency. We owe it to the victims and their grieving families to set down the ghastly unvarnished truth about the sheer barbarism that Hamas and its terrorist allies unleashed on October 7, 2023.»

María Corina Machado agradeció a Milei haber declarado grupo terrorista al Cartel de los Soles

María Corina Machado, líder política opositora al régimen dictatorial de Nicolás Maduro, agradeció este martes al presidente argentino Javier Milei el decreto que declaró como grupo terrorista al Cartel de los Soles.

Machado, perseguida por la dictadura de Maduro e imposibilitada de presentarse a elecciones, remarcó el compromiso del jefe de estado argentino que se sumó de esta forma a lo actuado por Ecuador y por Paraguay en las últimas semanas. «Querido Presidente Milei, en nombre de los venezolanos le agradezco su firme y decidido apoyo a la causa justa por la Libertad y la democracia de Venezuela, así como el respaldo y cariño del pueblo de la Argentina“, indica el texto publicado en X.

Nuestro pueblo ha enfrentado con inmensa valentía y dignidad a un régimen criminal narco-terrorista que ha provocado intencionalmente miseria, violencia y la huida de millones de ciudadanos”, subrayó Machado.

La líder política de la oposición venezolana enfatizó además la voluntad de cambio definitivo que atraviesa el pueblo de su país, sumido en una severa crisis humama, social, política y económica. “Hoy tenemos una sociedad unida, organizada y decidida a conquistar su Libertad para traer a nuestros hijos de vuelta a casa”, dijo.

Sabemos que también contamos con el apoyo de los pueblos hermanos de las Américas y con los genuinos líderes democráticos del mundo. ¡Venezuela será libre!“, concluyó.

El Gobierno argentino declaró organización terrorista al Cártel de los Soles”, que comandan Maduro y Diosdado Cabello. La administración Milei dispuso esta mañana incluir a ese grupo narcocriminal en el Registro Público de Personas y Entidades vinculadas a Actos de Terrorismo y su Financiamiento (RePET).

La declaración de “organización terrorista”, según informó el Gobierno, responde a los compromisos internacionales asumidos por la República Argentina en materia de prevención y combate al terrorismo. Y se enmarca en la normativa vigente y busca fortalecer la protección del sistema financiero nacional.

La resolución fue adoptada tras una coordinación entre el Ministerio de Relaciones Exteriores, que encabeza Gerardo Werthein y el Ministerio de Seguridad, de Patricia Bullrich.

“Declaramos al Cártel de los Soles como organización terrorista y narcocriminal. Maduro y su séquito son narcoterroristas. Ni en la Argentina ni en ningún lugar del mundo van a poder llevar a cabo sus actividades criminales. Para este Gobierno, el que las hace, las paga. Acá o donde sea”, afirmó Bullrich, en un mensaje publicado en su cuenta de X.

El 14 de agosto, días después de que el Tesoro de los Estados Unidos dispusiera una recompensa de 50 millones de dólares para quien aportara información que lleve a la captura de Maduro, el gobierno de Daniel Noboa designó al Cartel de los Soles como organización terrorista.

La disposición se formalizó mediante un decreto ejecutivo y forma parte del estado de “conflicto armado interno” que el mandatario mantiene desde inicios de 2024.

Con la inclusión del Cartel de los Soles en la lista de organizaciones terroristas de Ecuador, el gobierno de Noboa amplía su ofensiva contra las redes criminales que operan en el país.

La estrategia, respaldada por operativos conjuntos de Policía y Fuerzas Armadas, ha implicado detenciones masivas y la ocupación de territorios considerados bajo control de grupos armados. Las autoridades no han precisado el alcance de la presencia del Cartel de los Soles en Ecuador, pero el CNI deberá presentar un informe con sus hallazgos y coordinar acciones con agencias extranjeras.

Por su parte, días después, fue el gobierno de Santiago Peña en Paraguay el que dispuso una medida similar. El decreto presidencial fue firmado el pasado 22 de agosto. En él, Peña señala: “Desígnase a la organización delictiva transnacional denominada ‘Cartel de los Soles’ como organización terrorista internacional. Refréndese el Ministerio de Relaciones Exteriores“.

La hiperlujosa villa de verano de la reina Máxima y el rey Guillermo sobre el Egeo pone incómodos a los holandeses

Published

on


Las vacaciones de la reina Máxima y el rey Guillermo de Holanda y sus hijas se han convertido, una vez más, en una controversia en su país. Demasiado largas, lujosas y lejos de los Países Bajos para sus súbditos.

Los reyes buscaron disfrutar el verano en familia, lejos de las obligaciones y en privacidad, recibiendo amigos en su casa griega. Sin embargo, las decisiones sobre su lujosa residencia han desatado debates locales y nacionales que la familia real holandesa no había previsto.

La casa de la discordia

Tras vender su casa en Mozambique, que generó un escándalo similar, la pareja decidió invertir 4,5 millones de euros en una mansión griega con vistas al mar Egeo. La propiedad, adquirida en 2012, tiene una superficie de 4000 m² y se divide en tres grandes casas de fachada blanca sobre un acantilado.

El complejo combina lujo y privacidad: una piscina, una cancha de tenis y un muelle privado permiten a la familia entrar y salir sin ser vista. Máxima se enamoró del lugar después de asistir a una boda en Grecia en 2010. Desde entonces, este paraíso se ha convertido en su lugar favorito cada verano.

Los reyes han convertido la isla de Spetses en su refugio estival. Cada año, la pareja sale de los Países Bajos para disfrutar de un verano lejos del ojo público.

Intervino el gobierno griego

El gobierno griego se vio obligado a intervenir. Tomó medidas excepcionales debido a la presencia de la reina Máxima y el rey Guillermo Alejandro en su residencia de Spetses. Para garantizar la seguridad de la familia real holandesa, se privatizó una zona costera pública. Además, el acceso a la lujosa propiedad fue estrictamente controlado, lo que desató un gran debate en la zona.

La pareja real construyó una casa contigua para el equipo de seguridad, en un terreno donde la construcción estaba prohibida. Esto generó aún más debate entre los residentes locales.

El refugio griego de la realeza holandesa no solo ha atraído la atención de los medios, sino que también ha servido para fortalecer la relación con la realeza española. Felipe y Letizia se alojaron allí el año pasado y este año han sido invitados. La razón es simple: la heredera holandesa, la princesa Amalia, fue recibida por la familia real cuando los narcotraficantes la amenazaron y la alojaron en España por seguridad.

A pesar del revuelo causado por la intervención del gobierno griego, Máxima y Guillermo Alejandro disfrutan plenamente de su casa en Spetses durante las vacaciones de verano.

Con el final del verano y la agenda real llena, muchos asumieron que la realeza holandesa ya estaba de vuelta en los Países Bajos.

El sorpresivo regreso del rey Guillermo Alejandro a Ámsterdam para asistir a un evento náutico pareció confirmarlo. Fue visto disfrutando de Sail Amsterdam junto a la princesa Mabel y su sobrina. Sin embargo, la pregunta persistía: ¿dónde estaban la reina Máxima y las hijas de la pareja? ¿Habían vuelto?

Máxima sigue de vacaciones

Nuevas fotografías revelan que la reina Máxima sigue de vacaciones con su hija menor, la princesa Ariadna, a bordo de un yate que navega por las aguas turquesas de Spetses, una isla griega del Egeo. Su perro, Mambo, también se unió a la excursión. Es una presencia habitual en los retratos más informales de la familia real, como su sesión de fotos de verano en el Palacio Huis Ten Bosch.

El rey Guillermo de los Países Bajos hizo una aparición sorpresa, con la princesa Mabel y su sobrina, lo que generó nuevas preguntas. ¿Y la reina? ¿Dónde está? La Casa de Orange es la familia real más millonaria de Europa.

Esta no es la primera vez que se ve a la reina y a sus hijas durante su escapada de verano. El 15 de agosto, durante la festividad de la Asunción, Máxima y sus dos hijas menores también fueron vistas en una emotiva peregrinación a la iglesia de Agios Nikolaos en Spetses.

La isla, situada en el extremo sur del golfo Sarónico, es adorada por la familia real griega e incluso fue el destino de la boda del príncipe Nicolás de Grecia y Tatiana Blatnik.

Fue en esa boda donde Guillermo Alejandro y Máxima se enamoraron del encanto de Spetses.

¿Una casa más cerca?

Las vacaciones no han estado exentas de controversia. Cada año, los ciudadanos holandeses debaten si la familia real debería mantener una residencia de verano tan lejos de casa. La ex reina Beatriz tenía una casa en la Toscana, donde pasaba sus veranos.

Los hábitos de vacaciones de Máxima y Guillermo provocaron una reacción especialmente negativa en 2020, durante la pandemia de COVID-19. A pesar de las directivas gubernamentales que desalentaban los viajes internacionales, la familia real viajó a su villa griega en octubre. De hecho, a los pocos días, y tras las crecientes críticas públicas, se vieron obligados a acortar el viaje y regresar a los Países Bajos.

En un mensaje de video, el rey y la reina se disculparon con los ciudadanos holandeses, calificando su decisión de viajar de «muy imprudente».

EPA urged to axe funds for ‘radical’ climate project accused of training judges, state AGs rally

Published

on


NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!

First on Fox: Nearly two dozen Republican state attorneys general sent a letter to Environmental Protection Agency chief Lee Zeldin Tuesday, calling on him to cancel funding to a left-wing environmental group accused of training and lobbying judges on climate policy, Fox News Digital exclusively learned.

«As attorney general, I refuse to stand by while Americans’ tax dollars fund radical environmental training for judges across the country,» Montana Attorney General Austin Knudsen told Fox News Digital of his push to encourage the EPA to end its funding of the Climate Judiciary Project. 

«The Environmental Law Institute’s Climate Judiciary Project is using woke climate propaganda, under the guise of what they call ‘neutral’ education, to persuade judges and push their wildly unpopular agenda through the court system,» he said. «I commend President Trump’s efforts to cut waste and abuse during the first eight months of his presidency, and I am optimistic that his Administration will do the right thing and halt all funding to ELI.» 

Knudsen spearheaded the letter sent to Zeldin Tuesday, which included the signatures of 22 other Republican state attorneys general, calling for the EPA to axe its funding to the left-wing environmental nonprofit, called the Environmental Law Institute, which oversees the Climate Judiciary Project (CJP).

TOP ENERGY GROUP CALLS FOR PROBE INTO SECRETIVE ‘NATIONAL LAWFARE CAMPAIGN’ TO INFLUENCE JUDGES ON CLIMATE

The Environmental Law Institute founded the Climate Judiciary Project in 2018, which pitches itself as a «first-of-its-kind effort» that «provides judges with authoritative, objective, and trusted education on climate science, the impacts of climate change, and the ways climate science is arising in the law.»

The group, however, has been accused of trying to manipulate judges to make them more amenable to left-wing climate litigation. 

The letter sent Tuesday called on the EPA specifically to end any grants and awards endowed to the group. 

«We write to bring to your attention grants made by EPA to the Environmental Law Institute (‘ELI’),» the letter reads. «According to its 2024 financial statements, ELI received approximately 13% of its revenue in 2023, and 8.4% in 2024, from EPA awards. ELI also apparently still expected to receive funds from the federal government; its financial statement warned that the collectability of federal grant funds ‘is subject to significant uncertainty related to collectability and continual funding due to (the federal grant) funding freeze or other federal actions.’»

The Environmental Law Institute received $637,591 from the EPA in 2024 and $866,402 in 2023 from the EPA, according to nonprofit tax documents published by ProPublica detailing the group’s federal expenditures that year. 

«The Climate Judiciary Project’s mission is clear: lobby judges in order to make climate change policy through the courts,» 23 state attorneys general wrote in the letter. «An alumni magazine profile said the quiet part out loud, writing that the Climate Judiciary Project co-founder was ‘explaining the science of climate change to a group of people with real power to act on it: judges.’ The Climate Judiciary Project’s tampering raises serious legal and ethical questions.»

The Environmental Law Institute, however, in recent comment to Fox News Digital, has maintained that its educational programs through Climate Judiciary Project are in accordance with the standards established by national judicial education institutions. 

Climate Judiciary Project educational events are done «in partnership with leading national judicial education institutions and state judicial authorities, in accordance with their accepted standards,» a spokesperson for the group said in an emailed statement in July. «Its curriculum is fact-based and science-first, grounded in consensus reports and developed with a robust peer review process that meets the highest scholarly standards.»

«CJP’s work is no different than the work of other continuing judicial education organizations that address important complex topics, including medicine, tech and neuroscience,» an Environmental Law Institute spokesperson previously told Fox News Digital when asked about its educational programs.

The call for EPA to slash any funds to the Environmental Law Institute was celebrated by leading groups such as the American Energy Institute and the Alliance for Consumers, who lamented in comment to Fox Digital that taxpayer funds should not be used to fund the group and that «courtroom maneuvering» threatens day-to-day life. 

«The State Attorneys General are right to call for the elimination of taxpayer funding for the Environmental Law Institute and its Climate Judiciary Project,» Jason Isaac, CEO of the American Energy Institute, told Fox Digital. «This is a coordinated campaign to advance the Green New Deal through the judiciary using so-called climate litigation in the courts. Its curriculum is developed by climate alarmist allies of the plaintiffs and delivered to judges behind closed doors. Public funds should never be used to finance political advocacy disguised as judicial education.»

O.H. Skinner, the executive director of Alliance for Consumers, which is a nonprofit focused on advocating on behalf of American consumers, remarked that «as we have long warned, the left has a plan to reshape American society by using lawsuits in courts all across the country, especially in places like Hawaii and other coastal enclaves.»

«The new wave of revelations about ELI is further concerning evidence of how committed the left is to imposing mandatory Progressive Lifestyle Choices through this courtroom maneuvering and how big a threat it really is to all our ways of life,» Skinner added.

The Tuesday letter specifically argued: «State consumer protection laws prohibit deceptive and misleading statements to market a product. ELI is representing its training as objective when reality shows that it is not. State Attorneys General are responsible for protecting consumers, and we are concerned by ELI’s statements.»

The EPA has taken a hatchet to millions of dollars doled out under the Biden administration to left-wing groups and other programs deemed a waste of taxpayer funds upon Zeldin’s Senate confirmation as EPA chief in January. 

The EPA under the Trump administration has canceled $20 billion in grants under the Inflation Reduction Act — which has led to an ongoing court battle. Zeldin said in March that the $20 billion in U.S. tax dollars were «parked at an outside financial institution in a deliberate effort to limit government oversight, doling out your money through just eight pass-through, politically connected, unqualified, and in some cases brand-new NGOs.»

The state attorneys general reflected on the previous cuts in their call to Zeldin to do the same to ELI funding.

«Under President Trump’s bold leadership, federal agencies and the Department of Government Efficiency have saved an estimated $190 billion, including terminating more than 15,000 grants that saved approximately $44 billion,» the letter states. «You have heeded President Trump’s directive and achieved monumental savings for taxpayers. You canceled $20 billion in climate grants under the Inflation Reduction Act. You cancelled another $1.7 billion in diversity, equity, and inclusion grants.3 And you canceled 800 environmental justice grants.» 

CHINA’S CLIMATE LAWFARE SHOULD COME UNDER BONDI’S MICROSCOPE, KANSAS AG SAYS

Climate Judiciary Project and the Environmental Law Institute previously have come under fire from lawmakers such as Republican Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, who accused the groups of working to «train judges» and «make them agreeable to creative climate litigation tactics.»

The Texas Republican recently has argued there is a «systematic campaign» launched by the Chinese Communist Party and American left-wing activists to weaponize the court systems to «undermine American energy dominance.»

 Climate Judiciary Project is a pivotal player in the «lawfare» as it works to secure «judicial capture,» according to Cruz, Fox Digital has previously reported.
