Israeli killed, 2 seriously wounded in latest of 4 Palestinian terror attacks in Judea & Samaria within 24 hours  

Peloni:  Speculation is being raised online that the cause of this attack was due to fears of being arrested by the armed security forces if they had opened fire to disperse the Arab mob.  This, in turn, led to the security team having to confront the terrorists directly which is when the Arab mob disarmed the security officer and was then able to carry out the terror attack.

Civilian and soldier were wounded in separate attacks earlier Thursday

66% of Israeli Jews Are on the Right, Only 19% are on the Left  

Peloni:  As usual, Daniel Greenfield strikes the perfect pitch in his analysis.  One point to add to this is that in the coming election Bibi Derangement will play pivotal part in the Left’s strategy of pulling votes from the national camp.

14% identify as far right and 0% as far left

Daniel Greenfield | July 24, 2026

1. As I’ve noted in the past, American Jewish liberalism is an outlier globally. Jews in the UK, Canada and Australia have been drifting center-right, and even further right in France.

  • [Mamdani’s map of ethnic enclaves in New York City] labels neighborhoods as “Little Palestine,” “Little Egypt,” and “Little Pakistan,” along with other ethnic identities. But absent is any acknowledgment of, for example, the city’s prominent and historic Italian, Irish, Jewish or Puerto Rican neighborhoods. Their history and prominence are simply erased.

Will the Saudis Normalise with Israel?  

Peloni:  This is an important and insightful analysis by Khaled Hassan.  Israel should ignore the elusive pursuit of peace, which if sincere would include the recognition of Israel as described in international law and documented in the San Remo Declaration.  Instead, the Arabs will continue to trade hudnas and hints of hudnas in place of sincere treaties of peace.  The Abraham Accords are instead being manipulated to now offer a Sunni dictators a presumptive vote in Israeli politics. As Saudi control over Washington has waned in recent years, MBS is now looking for a new method by which to return the diplomatic capital it once had prior to America becoming energy independent.  So, this adept game of peace charades is being used to leverage America against Israel, and Israel’s electorate against its own govt, thus seeing both America and Israel surrender their own interests and returning Riyadh to a position of import rather than the isolation which they are better deserving for their actions.

The best way to find peace is thru victory in war.  If peace is possible, it will come of its own accord, and chasing it only makes it all the less possible, as is seen with the dubious antics being adopted by the Saudi Prince.

Around 14 July, reports of a deliberate leak began circulating. The method was classic deniable statecraft—tactical silence, the understanding that what is said in private can be easily denied in public.

Israel and Turkey are on a collision course  

Recep Tayyip Erdogan is turning his back on Mustafa Kemal Ataturk’s legacy not only regarding Turkey’s secular character, but also in foreign policy. The country’s focus on Europe is giving way to an embrace of the Islamic world.

Following the October 7 catastrophe, relations between Israel and Turkey collapsed to the point that some believe they are beyond repair. In recent months, fears have also grown that the hostility and rivalry between Israel and Turkey could deteriorate into an open military confrontation. Those concerns were reflected in remarks by US President Donald Trump, who said Turkey had been on the verge of entering the war against Israel during the conflict with Iran and had refrained from doing so only because of his intervention.

The Collapse of the West Has Begun – And the Only Thing Wrong in Their Worldview is Israel  

Peloni:  Barry Shaw provides a highly granular look at the collapsing West as it seeks to uproot its own identity in preference of the very image of Medieval barbarism.

A JEWISH PERSPECTIVE.

Barry ShawThe View from Israel | Jul 24, 2026

The leaders in each failing Western country can only find one item they need to radically change. It’s not their obsessive Socialist, Communist, Islamic politics. It’s Israel.

As they tear up the roots of what made their countries great the symptoms of their newly planted rot can already be clearly seen. They detest the system that once made their countries great and instead adjusting he levers to improve the conditions for their indigenous populations they have been drowning them out with mass migrations of peoples, cultures, languages, norms unknown to the West who have creating economic and cultural stress to their societies and are deaf to the complaints of their own people.

The Modern Dilemma Confronting Roman Catholic & Jewish Relations…  

by Gerald A. Honigman

A thought provoking editorial appeared in the July 17, 2026 Washington Jewish Week which posed the dilemma which exists today due to the emergence of popular podcast and You Tube media personalities, such as E. Michael Jones, Nick Fuentes and Candace Owens, who now compete with traditional Catholic authorities to distort and negate the hard won progress made in Catholic-Jewish relations which really did not occur, because of millennially ingrained and indoctrinated antisemitic teachings inculcated into countless millions of people, especially since the Roman Emperor Constantine became converted to the Church of Rome…

On 21 July 2026, Iraqi television channel Al-Ghadeer broadcast an interview with former Iraqi Army spokesman Lt. Gen.

Khalaf claimed that the leaked intelligence contributed to attacks resulting in the deaths of U.S. service members and damage to U.S. military facilities in Jordan.

Echoes of the Roman Conquest of Jerusalem in Today’s Islamic Conquest of the West  

Jonathan Feldstein

Image created via AI

Across the world this week, Jews are observing the saddest day on the Biblical calendar, a day of mourning and fasting in commemoration of the destruction of the First Temple (586 BCE) and the Second Temple (70 CE), along with other calamities that have befallen the Jewish people on the same day – the ninth of the month of Av – across millennia. These are not a coincidence, and our observance and mourning are with deep introspection.

Trump thinks outside the box on Hezbollah – Lebanon wants Israel out first  

Peloni:  It is a disturbing observation to note that Trump having suggested the possibility of talking with Hezbollah.  Doing so would only serve to raise their political standing while ignoring literally thousands of American deaths on their hands, as well as their role in the subsidizing and coordinating with the ongoing drug trade which Trump has been facing down in America.  While it is stated that ‘conventional’ approaches have thus far failed, it should be noted that the only approaches to deal with Hezbollah have been thru negotiations based on promises of disarmament used to force Israel back across an undefensible border which ultimately led to the continued slaughter of Israelis in the North.  What would be an unconventional step would be to support an Israeli buffer zone til such time as already agreed upon stipulations made by Lebanon, including by Pres. Aoun himself, of disarming Hezbollah was enacted.  Of course, Aoun wants Israel out of Lebanon first, but that is the very mechanism on which the past ‘conventional’ approaches were based and failed.  Time for a new approach, and talking with terrorists won’t solve the crisis.  It will only serve to distract from the fact that the old approaches of forcing Israeli concessions is also the basis of the new approach.  Thus far Aoun has disarmed not a single Hezbollah soldier and Israel is being forced into a ‘pilot’ test program.  Forcing Lebanon to act would be a new approach, but it seems thus far that is not the path being pursued, which is why it will almost certainly fail.

‘No Need’ For American Boots on Ground: Arm Fifty Million Freedom Fighters in Iran  

Peloni:  American success in Iran requires an occupying land force.  The general Iranian public could serve such a role, but it would require some form of organizing military leadership such as would come from at least part of the Iranian army defecting to oppose the existing regime.

The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) is a blood-soaked cartel that holds eighty-five million citizens hostage through terror, extortion, and executioner squads. American foreign policy stands on the brink of a catastrophic blunder if foreign boots step onto Iranian soil to fight a battle that belongs strictly to the Iranian nation.
