In a historic first, a landmark framework agreement was signed in the presence of Prime Minister Netanyahu between the government and the Samaria Regional Council to build 12,000 new housing units, together with thousands of square meters of commercial, industrial, and hotel space.

The total investment: 8.5 billion shekels. This is part of a broader vision that includes 18 new Jewish communities in northern Samaria, including the rebuilding of the four communities destroyed as part of the 2005 “disengagement” from Gaza and Northern Samaria, paving the way toward one million residents in the region.

Peloni:  Those who can not learn from history will live to regret having to revisit it in the future, but of course, what is taking place today is not the failure to simply learn from history, but to counteract the attempts by malicious actors to weaponize distortions of the historical record so as to specifically undermine and destabilize Western civilization.  Dr. Steven Stalinksy proposes an ideal solution to this problem, providing that the malicious actors who are today gaining support in the West are not also included to run such an endeavor as Dr. Stalinsky describes below.

In an op-ed published July 1, 2026 by RealClearWorld, MEMRI Executive Director writes about the need for a National Institute for the Study of Terrorism.

Below is the op-ed.

Over the past year, many initiatives have been announced and carried out in Washington, D.C. in advance of the marking of America’s first quarter-millennium. Among President Trump’s projects are renovations to Lafayette Square, already underway; a proposed Memorial Circle arch across from the Lincoln Memorial, a proposed National Garden of American Heroes, and more. Other changes to the face of the capital include the renovation of the White House East Wing ballroom, the revamping of the Rose Garden, the painting of the Eisenhower office building and the relocation of FBI headquarters from the J. Edgar Hoover building to the nearby Ronald Reagan building.

Israel now serves both as a physical refuge and a diplomatic shield for Jews worldwide. Opinion.

Dr. Alex Grobman | Jul 14, 2026

The Jewish people possess an inherent right to live in peace and security within their ancestral homeland. This statement is not merely a contemporary political debate; it is an ongoing existential test. For millennia, Jewish history was defined by dispersion, leaving a stateless population structurally vulnerable and dependent on what Edmund Burke termed the fluctuating “benevolence of nations.”

The Zionist revolution radically upended this paradigm by asserting that genuine safety cannot be outsourced. True security requires autonomy-the physical, military, and diplomatic capacity of a nation to defend itself.

Peloni:  The problem with the story that former Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is that Ahmadinejad reported to have been still active in the Iranian govt while he was supposedly so out of favor with the regime that he was under guard.  Also, it seems a bizarre means of rescue to bomb his residence with him in it, and then immediately afterwards proclaim his death as part of the plan to eliminate the Iranian hiarchy.  While this being intended disinformation might explain this celebration of Ahmadinejad’s death, it also seems curious that the report of Ahmadinejad being an Israeli asset would so quickly be released while the war was still ongoing.  Now the NYT releases a new story about Ahmadinejad being an Israeli asset, only to have a Iranian report earlier today state that “Former Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad attended Saturday’s meeting of the Economic Committee of the Council for Discerning the Interests of the Regime” [OSINT613].  So disinformation is clearly at play here, the only question is who is trying to gaslight whom, and is it actually working?  So was Israel’s plan to back Ahmadinejad or Pahlavi?  Would Ahmadinejad be kept alive amid the war which he was caught actively working with Israeal to kill Khameini?  Is the claim of Ahmadinejad as an Israeli agent really credible?

For nearly half a century, Israel and Iran have defined themselves partly through mutual hostility. That may be changing – not through official diplomacy between the two governments, which don’t exist, but through a growing, increasingly public relationship between Jerusalem and Iran’s exiled opposition, centered on Crown Prince Reza Pahlavi.

Los Angeles, CA – A leading comic book publisher has canceled the publication of a book about the Holocaust following the author’s refusal to publicly denounce Israel.

Dark Horse Comics had scheduled publication of Dr. Rafael Medoff’s book, Cartoonists Against the Holocaust, for this summer—but a Dark Horse imprint editor told Medoff that he would block publication unless the book’s introduction stated that Israel is committing genocide in Gaza. Shortly after, the editor followed up in writing, demanding that the book include text accusing Israel of “war crimes and crimes against humanity” and claiming there are “concentration camp-style prisons” in the United States.

Peloni:  Again and again and again, Western Leftists come to Israel while seeking a basis on which  to target citizens of the Jewish state so as to both distract their constituency but also to gain greater support among the activist radicalized Islamists within their constituency.   As Islamist grow in power and strength in the West, they are gaining greater influence over their domestic leadership, which has an important consequence not only for the Israelis living in their own homeland, but also for the non Islamist members of the relative domestic populations in the West.

It is summer once again, and anti-Zionist politicians in the UK have started another unfair attack against Jewish families and communities in Judea and Samaria. Recently, a debate in the UK Parliament focused on a dangerous proposal to make it a crime to buy land in Judea and Samaria. Supporters of this idea argued that the settlements are illegal under international law. Thankfully, several opponents in the legislature rightly challenged the proposal, pointing out that it is completely discriminatory and inconsistent.

Rep. Ro Khanna (D-Crazifornia), who has dreams of becoming the Democrats’ 2028 presidential nominee,  traveled to an imaginary country called “Palestine,” and then publicly claimed that a real nation—Israel—wrongfully detained him. Israel quickly set the record straight, but Khanna’s viciously slanted narrative is getting traction.

Peloni:  This case sends a clear message both about the Jordanian govt’s continued support of the Muslim Brotherhood, but also about Washington’s current interest in altering the power and influence of the Muslim Brotherhood even in Jordan at current.  If Trump’s ban is going to have any effect at all, it must address the ability of the Muslim Brotherhood affiliates to avoid accountability by simply changing the names of the affiliations. Otherwise, Trump’s ban will be as ineffectual as the captured Muslim states which are now controlled/controlling the political leaderships which are intended to enforce already existing bans on the Muslim Brotherhood in the region.  Relevantly, if the Trump ban does not act to eliminate the Muslim Brotherhood even in the named localities where the ban is applied, it will only serve to insulate the Muslim Brotherhood everywhere, and most importantly, that includes their influence being wielded in America as well.

Peloni:  The age of Jews partitioning their birthright in hopes of gaining peace, only to pay an ever rising butcher’s bill is at an end.  If the Arabs want peace, they will find that the land bazaar, gifting them with the means of establishing a forward base aimed at the destruction of the Jewish State, is permanently closed.  Bilateral relations, trade negotiations, and strategic defense interactions are possible, but further concessions of land is at a close.

Victor Satya 

History tells a story the slogans never do, because facts are rarely as persuasive as familiar narratives.

For decades, Israel has been accused of three great crimes. It supposedly occupies because it cannot let go. It expands because it cannot stop. And it wages war because peace is somehow contrary to its nature.
