Peloni: The political-security cabinet approved a sweeping set of decisions that significantly alter the legal, civil, and land-administration framework governing the West Bank. The measures, formulated under the leadership of the Settlement Administration within the Defense Ministry, are designed to dismantle longstanding legal barriers, repeal anti-Jewish Jordanian-era laws, and streamline procedures related to land registration and property transactions. Central to the overhaul is the opening of land registries to public access and the removal of special permit requirements for land purchases, steps intended to place real estate activity in the West Bank on a footing closer to that of sovereign Israel and to facilitate accelerated development of Jewish settlement. The decisions also expand Israeli enforcement authority in areas such as construction oversight, water regulation, environmental protection, and archaeology, and transfer responsibility for certain sensitive sites and planning decisions from PA or mixed frameworks to Israeli defense authorities. This is a long-overdue normalization of Israeli governance and a deepening of Israeli sovereignty over the land.

Peloni: Highly recommended video. As I noted previously, focusing on our identity is the best way to respond to antisemitism. Bret Stephens’ commentary goes far further in addressing this and other matters.
Paul Schnee: I think you will enjoy this presentation by Bret Stephens. It will take about 45 minutes to watch, but it’s well worth the time as it has some important, pertinent & powerful insights.

Peloni: Is Netanyahu moving his meeting with Trump forward simply to take a pulse of America’s negotiation? I would argue it is likely related to the fact that those negotiations have little (read as none) chance of success and the meeting is instead regarding more sensitive matters related to the failure of the talks and what comes next rather than the scope of the undergoing negotiations.

A week ago in Queens, New York, anti-Zionist protesters gathered outside a synagogue where a Jewish school was in session. Their chant pierced the air: “Say it loud, say it clear, we support Hamas here.” The words may have sounded rhythmic, but their message was deadly. Behind the rhyme was a call for violence, glorifying the massacre carried out by Hamas against Israel on October 7, 2023.
Peloni: Erin Molan speaks with Elliot Abrams and covers many topics including Trump’s promise of support for Iran, as well as the negotiations taking place with Iran. Addressing alternatives to negotiations, Abrams expresses his doubt about any negotiations being successful, as well as how bad any likely deal would reflect upon the situation in Iran, the region and for Trump himself.

Iran’s rulers, now that they are on their knees, apparently want to “talk.” However, any deal offered at this stage — no matter how well-intentioned — would serve only the interest of Iran’s regime — not that of America or the world.

??Special Ambassador Steve Witkoff no doubt talked to President Trump about the US-Iran meeting in Oman. We don’t have a special wiretap on his call to the President, but it is a sure bet Witkoff told the President things were going well and another meeting is planned.

Representatives from the United States and the Iranian regime convened in Oman’s capital, Muscat, on Friday, exchanging positions through the mediation of the Omani foreign minister in talks that appeared to focus more on outlining preconditions than on substantive negotiations.
History repeats itself – and Jewish history is rife with tragedy after tragedy. The warning signs are once again unmistakable.

I continue to warn you incessantly that a catastrophe is coming closer. I became gray and old in these years. My heart bleeds that you, dear brothers and sisters, do not see the volcano which will soon begin to spit its all-consuming lava.”

The problem is simple.
Iran wants nuclear weapons because of its religious belief in Jihad. It’s not going to give up that belief for money. And money is the only thing we have to offer it in the form of dropping sanctions. That puts us right back to the same place where Obama’s Iran Deal negotiations were.
Peloni: As I noted previously, American resistance has been interpreted as weakness. In fact, the Iranians are being emboldened by the manner in which the US has handled their approach toward negotiations, walking back its demand, ignoring its threats of being ‘locked and loaded’ to support the protestors, and its ‘delaying’ an assault which has yet to come in any form greater than striking a drone approaching its carrier in a threatening posture.
Yigal Carmon | MEMRI | Feb 6, 2026
Senior Iranian regime officials and their media mouthpieces are continuing to issue threats, with the aim of deterring President Trump from attacking Iran.[1] These threats are in the form of statements, AI-generated videos, cartoons, and billboards in public squares in Iranian cities with messages about killing hundreds or thousands of U.S. troops in the region, sinking U.S. aircraft carriers, launching missiles against the U.S. itself, blocking global shipping lanes, attacking U.S. diplomatic missions, and targeting President Trump’s personal assets.
Peloni: The purpose of antisemitism is to delegitimize us, to break the bond of identity which strengthens our people, and to instill a sense of fear and isolation, all of which must be countered with the strengthening of our identity and connection to our heritage, strengthening security, and promoting resistance to the normalization of antisemitic attacks.
In an age of historic surging antisemitism around the world, suggesting the solution to antisemitism is to maximize the sense of victimhood fails on every level and will only add to the damage intended by antisemites. Meira is correct in challenging Robert Kraft with gaining a better idea of how to counter the threat poised and promoted against the Jewish people.

Peloni: Iran’s ballistic missile threat is too great to ignore, even as it was ignored in today’s meeting in Oman. The US should respond to Iran’s sense of omnipotence by demonstrating that it is the US which has the ability to make demands in these negotiations, not Iran.
The answer may be simpler and more obvious than most of us have thought. It lies in Iran’s ballistic missile program.
Am Thinker | February 6, 2026
Recently, the United States was expected to hold negotiations with Iran in the Gulf Sultanate of Oman. The Trump administration announced the cancellation of the said talks amid disagreements over Iran’s insistence that the negotiations remain strictly limited to its nuclear program, while Washington wanted to discuss a large array of issues. That disagreement alone raises the question: What issue is Tehran even more reluctant to discuss than its holiest of holy, its nuclear program?
The answer may be simpler and more obvious than most of us have thought. It lies in Iran’s ballistic missile program.
