Should Israel Take Over Gaza? Discussed By Meir Weinstein & Meir Jolovitz  

Peloni: Meir Weinstein & Meir Jolovitz discuss how Israel was successful in losing two wars in Gaza simultaneously.  To ask the question of whether Israel should take over Gaza is to answer it.

Gaza is an integral part of Jewish lands, and has been so for thousands of years and this fact was confirmed by Gaza being included in the lands recognized under the League of Nations Mandate for Palestine as the reconstitution of the Jewish State.  The great betrayal of the 2005 Expulsion of Jews from Gaza continues to be illegal, untenable, and ill advised.  This great tragedy of the modern age must be avenged in the form of re-integrating this land into the Jewish state, not providing it as a gift to a cabal of international interests which will have no right to the land and no interest in providing any security for Israel while occupying this lost limb of the Jewish State.  Bring Gaza home to the people whose graves were forcibly ripped from the ground, rebuild the cities and towns which were leveled, and expel the terror from Gaza once and for all.  So yes,  Israel should take over Gaza.

Qatar’s School Curriculum – Anti-“Infidel” and Pro-Jihad  

Peloni:  Wherein lies the interest for America to have allies which are focused on the destruction and conquest of America?

Ambassador (ret.) Yoram Ettinger | “Second Thought: US-Israel Initiative” | February 24, 2026

* While the United Arab Emirates uprooted all anti-Jewish and anti-Israel elements from its school curriculum, the Friday mosque sermons, and its official media – replacing them with pro-Jewish and pro-Israel elements – Qatar has sustained its anti-“infidel”, anti-Christian, anti-Jewish and anti-Israel school curriculum, consistent with its Friday incitement mosque sermons and controlled media.

It’s Now Official: American Betrayal of Its Loyal, Valiant Kurdish Allies is Underway…

Well, The Donald’s done did it, and I was truly hoping I’d be proven wrong, and that he would not repeat what President George H. W. Bush shamefully committed against America’s most loyal allies in the Middle East (besides Israel) during the first Gulf war in 1990-1991.

After a ceasefire went into effect, he ordered General “Stormin’ Norman” Schwarzkopf to merely stand down and watch as thousands of Kurds were ruthlessly massacred by Saddam’s Arab forces.

DEVASTATING Israeli FOIA Exposes Unprecedented Surge in Teen Heart Attacks Following COVID Jab  

Peloni:  A very important peer-reviewed article by Ophir et al reveals devastating evidence of significant cardiac damage following the vaccination rollout for Covid 19 beginning in December 19, 2020. As noted by Ophir et al, the recently released (September 17, 2025) data set by Israel’s largest health organization, which serves more than half the country, we knew of an early warning of “a large number of myocarditis and pericarditis cases in young individuals” on February 28, 2021.  Despite the potentially devastating consequences resulting from the use of a vaccine on the general public, it took six months before any published peer-reviewed literature on this topic, all of which characterized the cardiac events following vaccination to be being the mild, transient and rare.  This current study includes, for the first time, the 279,300 adverse events reports which were never processed as the Covid vaccines were being administered, and therefore were also not considered in the research claiming that the cardiac risk was marginal.  As the authors of the current study explain:

“This brief research report uncovers real-time safety data from Israel (often described as the “world’s laboratory” due to its early and extensive vaccination campaign) that were not disclosed to the public during the critical decision-making period of mid-2021 [13]. These data could have materially informed contemporaneous risk–benefit assessments, particularly with respect to adolescents, and may have warranted age-stratified reconsideration of vaccination policy. “

By Sean Adl-Tabatabai | Lioness of Judah Ministry | February 22, 2026

A devastating Freedom of Information bombshell from Israel has ripped the lid off the biggest cover-up yet: the COVID jab triggered a massive wave of heart attacks in healthy teenagers.

THE MASK ALWAYS SLIPS  

By Kelleigh Nelson

The hate that begins with Jews never ends with Jews. Rabbi Jonathan Sachs

After the horrifying Hamas atrocities, I was disgusted with the moral relativism and clear antisemitism being displayed around the world in so many of our institutions, particularly the media, elite academia, the UN, and tragically in the US House of Representatives. Grammy-nominated singer and songwriter John Ondrasik

If I am to understand that you are inquiring whether I am of Jewish origin, I can only reply that I regret that I appear to have no ancestors of that gifted people.  My great-great grandfather came to England from Germany in the Eighteenth Century…. of impertinent and irrelevant inquiries of this sort are to become the rule in matters of literature, then the time is not far distant when a German name will no longer be a source of pride…  I trust you will find this reply satisfactory, and remain yours faithfully, J.R.R. Tolkien. This was written in a letter to his British publisher, Stanley Unwin, refusing to work with the German publishing house.

The Trouble With the Board of Peace  

16 Muslim countries, 10 non-Muslim countries and $10 billion in taxpayer money.

Daniel Greenfield | Feb 23, 2026

The problem with the United Nations wasn’t its blue color scheme: it was that globalism doesn’t work. The UN rebooted the already useless League of Nations and eventually expanded its membership to every third world dictatorship until the roster was so full of Marxist and Muslim countries (and Islamomarxist ones) that it had become an anti-American organization.

Erdogan Builds Sunni Alliance to Encircle Israel  

Turkey’s expanding partnerships across the Middle East signal a strategic shift that could reshape regional power balances.

Israfan | Feb 23, 2026

While global attention often focuses on Iran and its Shi’ite axis, another realignment is unfolding across the Middle East quieter, calculated, and potentially just as consequential for Israel and its allies.

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has embarked on an ambitious diplomatic campaign aimed at consolidating Sunni powers under Ankara’s influence. His objective is not simply reconciliation with former rivals. It is the construction of a coordinated Sunni bloc capable of reshaping regional dynamics and, in practice, constraining Israel’s strategic space.

The Friedman Paradox: Praising Israel While Trying to Destroy It  

By Oded Faran and Walter E. Block

New York Times columnist Thomas L. Friedman delivers his latest warning with characteristic certitude: “I’ve spent the past few days traveling from New Delhi to Dubai and Amman, and I have an urgent message to deliver to the Israeli people: I am seeing the increasingly rapid erosion of Israel’s standing among friendly nations, a level of acceptance and legitimacy that was painstakingly built up over decades.”

The irony is staggering. This warning comes from a writer who has perhaps done more than any other journalist on the planet to undermine the worldwide reputation of the only civilized country in the Middle East. Through a relentless series of essays and editorials, Friedman, while ostentatiously positioning himself as a friend of Israel, has been methodically eroding its legitimacy.

China’s ‘Magic Weapon’ Reaches Deep Into America and the West  

Peloni:  All nations should move to protect themselves from foreign interlocutors disguised in the form of NGOs.  They can have a meaningful and detrimental effect, and as Janet Levy describes below, China has had a long and successful history of pursuing such malicious outreach into the West.

China has seeded the West with thousands of agents pushing propaganda, engaging in espionage, fomenting protests, and silencing domestic dissent.

In 2023, the FBI arrested two Chinese-Americans, Lu Jianwang and Chen Jinping, for operating a Chinese police station in Manhattan. Chen pleaded guilty and faces up to five years in prison for acting as a Chinese agent, while Lu, who has connections to Chinese authorities, pleaded not guilty and is awaiting trial. He faces 20 years for obstruction of justice.

SHELTERING KILLERS AND MAKING EXCUSES  

Peloni:  America has ALWAYS had the ability to bring the likes of Nafez Sabih and Bassam Issa to justice, just as they have always had the ability to bring Ahlam Tamimi to justice for her role in the Sbarro Pizza bombing in which two other Americans were killed, Malka Chana Roth, a 15-year-old, and Judith Shoshana Greenbaum, a pregnant 31-year-old teacher.  Of course, the facetious claim put forward by Dennis Ross is not sincere, which is why there will never be justice for the likes of these American victims whose murderers remain in a state of constant protection by governments and authorities which are directly funded by the US taxpayers.

by Rafael Medoff

Thirty years ago this week, Palestinian Arab terrorists bombed a bus on Jaffa Road, in downtown Jerusalem. Twenty-six passengers were murdered.

Among the victims were U.S. citizens Sara Duker, of New Jersey, and Matthew Eisenfeld, of Connecticut, students at the Jewish Theological Seminary of America who were engaged to be married.

Does Israel still have red lines in Gaza?  

Peloni:  Time is not on Israel’s side, and it never was.  As the clock ticks by Hamas has become stronger, better equipped, further entrenched and better secured within its position of dominance over the people of Gaza.

On paper, billions of dollars have been pledged for the reconstruction of the Gaza Strip, and a multinational force is in the process of being formed. But it remains doubtful that any of it will come to fruition, since the key to everything has always been, and remains, the disarmament of Hamas.

President Donald Trump launched a new international body in Washington last week, dubbed the Board of Peace, which he says will spearhead his broader vision for global peace, beginning with Gaza and potentially extending to other conflict zones. Trump described the board as “the most significant international body in history,” intended to replace what he views as the failed and ineffective United Nations.

Crisis-driver or Gaza stabilizer? Why Turkey believes it switched roles with Israel  

Peloni:  An important question related to Ankara’s ever increasing regional ego is why the US has acted to significantly promote Turkey’s position in the region, even as its already stated and partially realized goal is to reconquer the region, including US regional allies.

Ankara feels that from the Horn of Africa to the Eastern Mediterranean and Syria and Iraq it has increased its influence greatly in the last years.

In 2019 Turkey took delivery of an S-400 air defense system from Russia. This was the culmination of a deal dating from 2017. It also marked Ankara’s shift in strategy from being a NATO member to hedging its bets by working with Russia. A pipeline across the Black Sea to Russia, called TurkStream was completed in 2020.
