Pretending to Disarm Hezbollah Won’t Work  

Peloni:  Lebanon’s failure to disarm Hezbollah was not only predictable, it was inevitable.  The Lebanese lack the independence and agency with which to unseat Iran’s dominance over them.  The way to even approach this goal is thru the destruction of the Mullahs’ powerbase in Tehran, and only then might something substantially different take form in Lebanon.  Until then, the kabuki theatrical shell game in Lebanon will continue unabated, no matter what is agreed to by anyone.

Lebanon is pretending to disarm Hezbollah and thinks that the world believes it. Then, when the world calls Beirut out, Lebanese officials engage in collective delusion and blame “Israeli aggression” for military escalation. Lebanon is now reneging on the ceasefire and the 1701 enforcement mechanism that it signed, in November, in which it pledged to disarm Hezbollah and, in return, get territory back from Israel.

From Tragedy to Unity: Kibbutz Be’eri, Elchanan Kalmanson, and the Spirit of Israel  

Peloni:  The road to victory is thru the united resolve of the Jewish people to defeat our enemies and to build a secure and vibrant future, none of which will be achieved if the clarion call of insurrection is answered.  These calls of perdition are the call of betrayal, heralding the victory of our enemies and the utter devastation of Israel and the Jewish people.

Dr. Mudar Zahran, Jordanian Opposition Leader, Declares Jordan is Palestine And An Apartheid state  

Peloni:  Mudar Zahran is quite correct in stating that Israel must extend sovereignty to the entire of Judea & Sumaria.  By doing so, in conjunction with the Jordan rescinding its Crime Against Humanity of dispossessing the Pals in the area, might any equitable peace be pursued.  The road to peace in the region requires the psychopathic Pals who have been weaponized to actively pursue the slaughter of Jews being managed, and this can only be achieved by them being managed towards preventing this eventuality.  The man to provide this outcome is Mudar Zahran, and the vision to achieve this outcome is the Jordan Option, as described by Ted Belman, our editor in Chief, in the articles and links included in The Ultimate Alternate Israel-Palestine Solution (Jordan Option) and Memo to Kushner.

Caroline Glick on American Thought Leaders  

Peloni: Caroline Glick continues to be a national treasure as she has taken to join the current govt as International Affairs Advisor to the Prime Minister of Israel.  The entire conversation in the attached link is important and illuminating, but the discussion below on what is commonly described as “aid” to Israel, but it is in fact an investment in Israel which provides an unequaled benefit to the American people, provides an important context to that investment.  By strengthening Israel, America itself is strengthened and is made safer.

Where is the Red Cross now?  

Peloni:  So much has changed since WWII, and then again, so much has not.  For the Red Cross, when Jewish lives are involved, shame is their only trademark.

The Red Cross makes no mention of the hostages and appears not to care.

Today, 59 Israeli hostages remain in Gaza. How can we justify hostage negotiating with a terrorist entity when we do not even know for sure who is alive and who has already been murdered? Testimony of released hostages confirms that many have been murdered in brutal circumstances. Many are held in underground caves, starved and placed in harm’s way, to put it mildly.. Shouldn’t the International Red Cross be proactive and take the humanitarian steps to expose terrorist barbarism!?

Passover and more Good News from Mt. Sinai…  

by Gerald A. Honigman

Let’s begin with some additional refreshing news emanating  from Mt. Sinai…

Next, given the constant attacks waged by millions of non-Arabs/non-Muslims (just the usual age-old ‘Devil’s spawn, god-killing antisemites in the Christian West) in addition to those launched by Arabs and Muslims themselves, it’s very important to see what a renowned Islamic Scholar has to say about this topic today. Here’s Sheikh Abdul Hadi Palazzi :

America’s federal court judges: a self-anointed priesthood.  

Peloni:  Highly recommended article.  A very intriguing insight into the Judicial war against democratic norms.

By Andrea Widburg | Am Thinker | April 1, 2025

Although the Democrats were initially rocked by the speed with which Trump moved upon taking office, they’ve regrouped and are coming back with a formidable counterattack: Judges. This counterattack would have stunned the Founders, who intended the unelected judiciary to be the weakest branch of government, but it’s completely logical to those of us who have seen leftist judges at work over the decades.

The ‘Blame Israel First Derangement Syndrome’  

It can be seen in those who malign the Jewish state for a war it didn’t start and those who insist that Jewish communities in Judea and Samaria pose a threat to Mideast stability.

In a tweet dated March 27, Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) wrote: “Next week, I will force votes to block $8.8 billion in new arms sales to Israel.” The Vermont senator also stated that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s illegal war against Hamas in the Gaza Strip has killed 50,000 Palestinians.

Texas under siege: the stealth Islamic takeover we can’t ignore  

By Amil Imani | Am Thinker | Mar 30, 2025

AI image by Grok.

Texas, the Lone Star State, a bastion of freedom, faith, and rugged individualism, is facing a threat that should worry all Texans and, indeed, all Americans. Reports are mounting \that Islamic influence is creeping into our state, not through open conquest, but through an insidious, calculated expansion that threatens the very soul of Texas.

French Judge Bars 2027 Presidential Front-Runner Marine Le Pen From Holding Office, Dishes Out Prison Sentence  

Peloni:  Totalitarians continue to collapse democracies around the West at the behest of the judicial elites who were invisioned to preserve liberty and impose justice when the complete opposite has become far too common of late.   When Judicial Reform was first seen to have become a real potential in Israel following the last election, so many jurists around the world raised concerns while describing the Israeli judicial system as the gem of judical systems in the west, even as its rulings are based upon the whim of the High Court jurists.  And now, even as Israel is taking only modest steps to deal with its out of control judiciary amid a very real contest of wills with its own Juristocrats, courts around the Western world are moving to cement their own whims as being relevant enough to undue democratic norms.  The fate of freedom in the West will depend upon the spirit and will of the public to resist the imposition of autocracy by judicial fiat, and failing this, the life spring of liberty in the West will fail as well.
