US Army COL Nathan McCormack, the Levant and Egypt branch chief at the JCS J5 planning directorate, was relieved of his position and is "under investigation" for making negative public comments about Israel. The field-grade combat veteran referred to "Netanyahu and his Judeo-supremacist cronies" in Washington as having "overwhelmingly" enabled Israel's "bad behavior." "These pro-Israel activists in the US prioritized support for Israel over our actual foreign interests." COL McCormack has also bashed Israel as a "death cult" that is America's "worst ally." "The Western states go to great lengths to avoid criticism of Israel, much out of Holocaust guilt. Israel's actions over decades have prompted the accusations of ethnic cleansing and genocide. Netanyahu and his Judeo-supremacist cronies are determined to prolong the conflict for their own goals: either to remain in power or to annex the land," he wrote on social media in May 2025. read more


Douglas Wayne Cornett (58) of Ruther Glen, VA, pleaded guilty to federal hate crimes charges for trying to kill two Latino victims. On the evening of 28 Feb 2024, Cornett followed a box truck driven by 'O.G.', an adult Latino male, into the Sheetz gas station along I-95 in Spotsylvania County, VA. Cornett then asked 'J.M.', an adult Latino male and a friend of 'O.G.', how long 'O.G.' had been present in the US. Upon learning that 'O.G.' had arrived within the last two years, Cornett drew a handgun and fired six rounds, striking 'O.G.' three times and 'J.M.' once. Cornett later confessed to a county deputy to shooting the victims because they were 'illegals.' This homicidal white supremacist will be sentenced on 13 Nov. Per the terms of his plea agreement, Cornett will receive no more than 24 years in prison. read more
