The new mayor of New York, Zohran Mamdani, is consumed with anti-Israel animus. He refuses to recognize Israel’s right to exist as a Jewish state. He will not denounce the chant “from the river to the sea/Palestine will be free,” which means that Israel should disappear, and be replaced by a twenty-third Arab state. He has not denounced the call to “globalize the Intifada,” which means to kill Jews not just in Israel, but everywhere. And he is a supporter of the BDS (Boycott, Divest and Sanction) Movement, that aims to damage Israel economically.

Peloni:  Political analyst and former Epoch Times producer, Karys Rhea, discusses the rise of the New Red-Green alliance which comprises the likes of Tucker Carlson and Candace Owens with the Muslim Brotherhood Islamists.  She warns of an alarming trend in the traditional pro-Israel, pro-Jewish Evangelical Republican base which reports of alarming voices aligning with Owens and Carlson.  She also discusses the recent event in a US organization which had been assembled to discuss how to fight antisemitism, only to find one its members promoting antisemitism during the committee’s meeting.

Peloni:  The dominant role which Trump placed in Tom Barrack hands when he raised him to such a prominent position in the Middle East has always belied a serious warning sign for Trump’s Middle East policy.  Turkey is an expansionist power, and has taken advantage of Trump’s pro Turkey posture on two occasions to expand its acquisitions.  The first was in 2018 and the second was over the past year, but both occasions relate to Turkey’s rising expansion in Syria.  This, however, is not the limit of his expansionist aims, even as he now has control over part of Crete and is looking to increase his control in Libya.

Barack plays a key role as US ambassador to Turkey, Special Envoy to Syria, and one of the key figures in American policy in the Levant, while also keeping constant dialogues with Gulf state actors.

While the Prime Minister is in Washington fighting for Israel’s survival, it is crucial to remember that the Jewish people’s attachment to its tiny land was continuous, documented, and unmatched by any competing national claim. It was also legally recognized.

One of the oldest and most dishonest arguments used to deny Jewish rights in the Land of Israel is the claim that Jews are not a people-only a religion. This falsehood resurfaces whenever Israel asserts itself as a Jewish state and whenever Jews insist on their right to national self-determination.

While most people in history know when they achieve a “first,” some never learn so while still alive.

So goes the story of a “first” accomplished by my late father, Admiral Elmo R. “Bud” Zumwalt, Jr. At age 49, in 1970, he had accomplished a first in the US Navy about which he was well aware.

Janet Levy:  Does the Trump Administration Support Israel?

Qatar funds Hamas, making them the “author” of the October 7th massacre.

After Israel retaliated by attacking Hamas senior operatives being sheltered in Doha, Trump did the following:

1.  Forced Israel to stop the operation,
2.  Made Netanyahu apologize to his good friend, Al-Thani, the Emir of Qatar,
3.  Issued an Executive Order that stated that “an attack on Qatar will be viewed as an attack on the U.S.,”
4. Announced that the U.S. will train the Qatari Air Force.

American Firsters fail to see this as a special paean to Qatar.  So much for America First!  Or perhaps prioritizing Israel is verboten but aiding the terrorist state of Qatar is copacetic.

Does America First mean the U.S. should protect Qatar, a jihadi state allied with the Muslim Brotherhood which will mean “Death to America.”

It seems logical to support Israel as they are at the forefront of stopping the jihadis who want to destroy Western civilization.

Francisco Gil-White | MOR | Feb 10, 2026

There has been increasing noise in some segments of the US political right against what they see as ‘too much’ US support for Israel. This is presented as an ‘America First’ argument.

Between The Hammer Of European Conditions For Economic Aid And The Anvil of Commitment to Nationalistic-Islamic Indoctrination.

Y. Yehoshua | MEMRI | Feb 11, 2026

The issue of incitement in the Palestinian school curricula places the Palestinian Authority (PA)  in a bind that threatens its economic and its political stability. On the one hand, its economic survival depends on reform of the school curricula: On May 7, 2025, the European Parliament voted to freeze its education budgets until a comprehensive reform is carried out to bring the curricula up to UNESCO standards – that is, until antisemitism, incitement to violence, and glorification of terrorism are completely removed from them. The demand for curricular reform was also included in the August 4, 2025 New York Declaration promoting the two-state solution, and found expression in PA President Mahmoud Abbas’s personal commitment to French President Emmanuel Macron.[1]

To President Donald J. Trump:

I am writing to you because I am having trouble understanding your current foreign policy as it pertains to Iran, Hamas, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and Syria. I am very confused over these negotiations especially with Iran and Hamas. Please explain why you are negotiating with Iran over a nuclear program that your B-2 bomber attack destroyed. I know that you know way more than I do, but on its face, you are missing a very important fact. The fact is that religious Islamic doctrine clearly and unequivocally states that Islam must destroy the West, kill Jews and Christians, and establish a worldwide Islamic caliphate. These are uncontested facts, Mr. President. Islamic doctrine is the unifying and guiding religious ideology for all Sunni and Shia Muslims worldwide.

The recent Sharia-Free America Caucus hearings revealed a very unsettling and growing threat.

Janet Levy | AM Thinker | February 11, 2026

Whenever patriots rise to defend America from radical Islam, liberals dismiss them as alarmist or Islamophobic. Therefore, criticism is likely to increase after the February 10th Sharia Free America hearings of the House Subcommittee on the Constitution and Limited Government. But not only is the threat real, it also grows stronger from apologists who insist that Islam is a religion of peace, even though Islamist groups openly swear by its medieval tenets of world conquest.

A misunderstanding of the Middle East has led President Trump to criticize steps toward Israeli sovereignty. We must be clear: sovereignty is what will bring stability.

President Trump’s opposition to applying Israeli sovereignty in Judea and Samaria stems from a Western view that sees such a step as destabilizing. In the Middle Eastern context, however, this is a misreading of reality. Israeli sovereignty is a necessary strategic move.

Peloni:  We first reported on this story early last year, in which Yossi Baum revealed the startling findings about the trap in which PM Netanyahu found himself caught in the early hours of October 7, while the innocents in the Kibbutzim surrounding Gaza, along with the Nova Music Festival goers, were being slaughtered.  In what has been become a basis for bizarre antisemitic plot lines put forward by sensationalizing podcasters and talking heads, the mystery surrounding Israel’s nearly silent response in the early hours of October 7, which stretched through that terrible day, the reports and deductions put forward by Weiss and Baum led to the revelations that the legal fraternity in Israel held Israel’s political elites in a state of capture, delaying and compromising the possibility of a vigorous and fearsome response to the terrorist attack on October 7.  With PM Netanyahu’s statement on the events of October 7, first revealed to the State Comptroller, and now released to the public, we have eye-witness confirmation from the Prime Minister himself recounting the unbelievable tragedy which was purposefully made worse by the very legal and judicial systems which should have acted to support the gov’ts efforts in protecting the citizens of Israel and defending the nation on October 7.  No greater condemnation than this could be made of the political infighting which betrayed the nation that day, just as no greater statement of support for Judicial Reform might be construed from the institutionalized failures which aided the wholesale slaughter of so many, not to mention the more than 250 precious innocent lives who were stolen away into the hell hole terror dens in the tunnels of Gaza during the near paralysis in those precious early hours of October 7.

Notably, this is not likely to be the worst of what will be revealed in the hopefully not too distant future.

In Netanyahu’s document it was officially revealed: despite the fact that Netanyahu declared war in the early morning hours of October 7, the declaration was not implemented until the late night hours (in practice, until October 8).

Peloni:  First, there is no annexation taking place, and the land in question is actually called Judea and Samaria.  Second, the repeal of antisemitic laws should be celebrated by all descent thinking people, and this should include the leadership in the US, even if it can not include those in the British leadership.  It is no wonder that Trump has yet to be so bold as his antisemitic equal in the UK, who personally endorses antisemitic standards as an ultimate good.  Indeed, only rank depravity could find support for the continuation of the antisemitic standards such as Jordan’s Law #40 which were overturned in the Land Reform measures adopted earlier this week.
