VIDEO: Muslim Rioters Leave 20 Cops Injured in Berlin.

Around 20 police officers have been injured following a night of violent Muslim-led rioting across the German capital of Berlin on Tuesday, which also saw one of the city’s main synagogues firebombed.

The city’s authorities were forced to deploy water canons and police dogs in an effort to disperse the crowds after they began hurling stones and pyrotechnics at the police while others set fire to barricades. Police officers were also deployed to protect the German memorial to the Holocaust as well as the Brandenburg Gate.

Two people also threw Molotov cocktails at a Berlin synagogue in the early hours of Wednesday morning before covering their faces and fleeing the scene. While police investigated the incident several hours later, another man charged at the synagogue, shouting “anti-Israeli slogans” before being apprehended.

The violence is understood to have begun following false reports that Israel killed least 500 people were killed due to an explosion at the al-Ahli Hospital in Gaza City earlier in the evening. It now looks increasingly like the bombing was an errant Islamic Jihad rocket attack.

“We are experiencing the effects of a religious war on the streets of the capital, in which our emergency services are becoming targets of religious fanaticism,” stated Berlin’s chief of police, Stephan Weh, on Wednesday morning.

“Above all, the families from the neighborhood around the synagogue are shocked and unsettled. Words become deeds. Hamas’ ideology of extermination against everything Jewish is also having an effect in Germany,” said the German Jewish Group, the Central Council of Jews.

A Jihadist Rocket Aimed at Israel Hit the Gaza Hospital, Killing 500+, Says IDF.

The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) announced that intelligence sources indicate it was an Islamic Jihad terrorist group rocket that hit a Gaza hospital, killing hundreds, as opposed to an Israeli strike as first claimed by international corporate media and terror group Hamas. The IDF provided video to support their claims.

“Following an analysis by the IDF’s operational systems, a barrage of rockets was launched toward Israel, which passed in the vicinity of the hospital, when it was hit,” the IDF said in a statement posted on X. “According to intelligence information from a number of sources we have, Islamic Jihad terrorist organization is responsible for the failed rocket launch that hit the hospital.”

In the immediate aftermath of the blast, it was reported that upwards of 500 Palestinians had been killed with the number expected to rise. U.S. corporate media and some Members of Congress were quick to condemn the Israeli military, citing Hamas claims that it was an Israeli airstrike that hit the hospital. Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) said, “Bombing a hospital is among the gravest of war crimes.” Omar insinuated that it was the IDF that orchestrated the attack. CNN and MSNBC both reported that an Israeli airstrike was responsible for the deadly blast – repeating the claims made by Hamas.

Canadian Prime Minister Justine Trudeau, also appeared to uncritically accept Hamas’s narrative. “The news coming out of Gaza is horrific and absolutely unacceptable. International humanitarian and international law needs to be respected in this and in all cases,” Trudeau said shortly after the new broke.

“The barbaric terrorists in Gaza are the ones who attacked the Gaza hospital, not the IDF,” said Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, pushing back against corporate media that was quick to blame his country’s military. “Those who cruelly murdered our children, murder their children as well.”

The Islamic Jihad is a terrorist organization that seeks to establish an Islamist Palestinian state. It is the second-largest militant group in Gaza after Hamas and frequently uses rockets as a weapon of terror against Israel.

King of Jordan Says Neither His Country, Nor Egypt, Want Gaza Refugees.

Jordan’s King Abdullah II has rejected German Chancellor Olaf Scholz’s proposal for neighboring Arab countries to take in Palestinian refugees fleeing the Gaza Strip amid the anticipation of an Israeli ground offensive. King Abdullah’s comments came during a press conference in Berlin on Tuesday after a meeting with Chancellor Scholz.

The Arab ruler emphasized Jordan and Egypt would not accept any refugees, stating it is a “red line” for both countries. Following a violent attack by Hamas on Israel, the Israeli government has urged civilians to evacuate the northern part of Gaza, citing the possibility of a ground offensive.

Chancellor Scholz plans to express solidarity with Israel during his visit to the country on Tuesday. He will then travel to Egypt, where he is scheduled to meet with President Abdel Fattah Al-Sisi on Wednesday.

At the press conference with King Abdullah, Chancellor Scholz criticized the use of civilians as human shields by Hamas, and emphasized that the Palestinian population was also a victim of the group. He further warned Hezbollah and Iran against intervening in the conflict, stressing the need to prevent further escalation.

Biden Treasury Sec Yellen Says U.S. Can ‘CERTAINLY’ Afford Multiple Wars.

U.S. Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen says the United States can afford to continue funding the Ukrainian military in addition to new funding promises for Israel in its fight against the Hamas terrorist group. “America can certainly afford to stand with Israel and to support Israel’s military needs,” Yellen said in ahead of a meeting with global finance ministers in Luxembourg. “And we also can and must support Ukraine in its struggle against Russia.”

Yellen urged Republican lawmakers in the House of Representatives to choose a speaker so that additional funds can be appropriated for both Ukraine and Israel. “It’s really up to the House to find, seat a speaker and to put us in a position where legislation can be passed,” Yellen said.

The inflation criss that has plagued the United States since President Joe Biden took office has resulted in the Federal Reserve rapidly increasing interest interest rates in response. As a result, the cost of servicing government debt has skyrocketed. According to the Congressional Budget Office (CBO), the Biden administration paid $711 billion on net interest payments this year – an increase of $177 billion, or 33 percent, from fiscal year 2022. The average interest rate on Federal debt has gone from 1.5 percent in 2022 to nearly 3.0 percent today.

September’s economic data suggests that – while down overall from its peak – inflation remains elevated and well above the Federal Reserve’s 2 percent target. Some economists believe that that September’s ‘sticky’ inflation number will force the Federal Reserve to increase interest rates one more time before the end of the year – making any supplemental funding for the war efforts in Ukraine or Israel even more costly in terms of the debt it would generate.
