Qatar-Based Group Aligned With Muslim Brotherhood Backs Iran Against Israel  

Peloni:  The US needs to designate the Muslim Brotherhood as a Foreign Terrorist Organization and end Qatar’s major non-NATO ally (MNNA).

A network of Islamist clerics is exploiting the conflict in Iran to push its hardline agenda. Scholars aligned with the pro-Muslim Brotherhood, Qatar-based International Union of Muslim Scholars (IUMS) are celebrating Iranian missile attacks on Tel Aviv. On June 23, the IUMS published an article by Turkish scholar and politician Yasin Aktay, who exulted how “the Arab streets received the images of Iranian missiles striking Tel Aviv with overwhelming joy!” Another IUMS member posted on X, “let there be more [Iranian strikes] and bless [those who carry them out].”

US and Israel’s strikes on Iran have unmasked a power vacuum  

And the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps is poised to exploit it.

Dr. Eric R. Mandel | June 26, 2025

So much has been written about “the day” after Hamas in Gaza. However, what comes next in Iran is a far more consequential scenario for U.S. national security, global power competition and regional stability.

Iran is entering a dangerous new phase—not one shaped by diplomacy but by the unchecked consolidation of military power by the regime’s most formidable force: the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC). That vacuum of power has been accelerated by Israel’s June 2025 air campaign, which struck deep inside Iran, targeting the IRGC’s military infrastructure and leadership in the past 20 months of degrading its proxy network.

Israel Gaza War Is About To END, As Trump Netanyahu Plan Deal Of The Century!  

Peloni:  This report of a transactional deal securing the framework of the Two State Solution for the future, as first described by Israel Hayom, if accurate, would stand as a great betrayal to the efforts and endurance of the Israeli people over the past nearly two years who have suffered the sacrifices of war to roll back the tragedies which arose from pursuing the failed Two State Paradigm.  In fact, the TSS is a well established path towards war, and not towards peace, and every effort to secure this paradigm betrays the significant sacrifices which have been spent in this war towards eradicating the threats which arose due to the TSS policies which have been secured in place over the years, and which led to the many and gross security failures preceding October 7.

In the last few hours, the Prime Minister’s Office has related that the Israel Hayom report is false, stating that the meeting described “did not take place ” and that ” “Israel was not presented with a proposal that was supposedly described in the article, and it obviously did not agree to it.”

Who Really Bombed a Damascus Church?  

It may be the Jihadists we support.

Daniel Greenfield | June 27, 2025

After Muslim terrorists attacked the St. Elias church in Damascus, killing 25 Christians and wounding over 60 others, there were more questions than answers about the attack.

While the official Syrian government position is that it was a lone ISIS gunman, Christian witnesses report multiple attackers, and in Syria, ISIS is a term that conceals more than it reveals. Especially when the government is run by members of Islamic terrorist groups with their own ties to Al Qaeda and ISIS. A terrorist government that despite playing up to President Trump, to America and Europe is not actually very friendly to its Christian population.

The Art of Deception: How Israel’s Operation Rising Lion Dismantled Iran from Within  

Peloni:  Middle East scholar at the Hudson Institute, Zineb Riboua, discusses Operation Rising Lion.  Riboua suggests that the Iranians were complacent, ignoring the tell-tale signs of Israel’s likely strategy which were missed by Iran and which were present in the killing of Haniyeh and the decapitating of Hezbollah in the Pagers Attack.  She also relates the importance of the ongoing protests in Iran which likely aided Israel’s human intellegence operation in planning and staging its offensive.  In the aftermath of the attack Riboua suggests that Iran’s weakness will lead to a slow disintegration of the the Iranian crescent.  She also discusses the possible effects of the recent war on the Iranian popultion.

This is about whether Israel can truly defend itself and govern itself.  

Peloni:  Since returning to the White House, many have called on Trump to help quash the Lawfare attacks on Netanyahu, and it seems that those calls have not gone unnoticed.  Still, what might have been far more useful and far more legitimate than Trump’s call for the Lawfare cases against Netanyahu to be dropped, would have been to disclose the role which the US likely had in supporting or advocating those cases to be formed against Netanyahu over the past decade.   Indeed, Israel is a sovereign nation, and it should be left to govern itself, by itself, but having all the facts in hand, along with any documented evidence between Israeli and the US representatives relating to these cases, for example, would be very empowering to the Israeli people, and the Israeli legal system as well.  Using the persona of Trump to intervene on Netanyahu’s behalf in these Lawfare cases only serves to entrench what should be seen as being an infringement of Israeli sovereignty.

Avi Abelow

U.S. President Donald Trump caused a stir this morning when he posted a scathing critique of Israel’s legal system, calling the ongoing trial of Prime Minister Netanyahu a “witch hunt” and a “travesty of justice.”

It is important to clarify, that it is not right for the US President to interfere in our internal political affairs. However, this “involvement” is nothing like the involvement of the various Obama and Biden administrations that gave millions of dollars to the opposition in Israel to topple Netanyahu.

Israel CRUSHES Iran, Ayatollah Regime In TURMOIL; IDF Intensifies Hamas War | TBN Israel  

Peloni:  Israel refocuses towards crushing Gaza with important claims being made about negotiations, more noise without substance I suspect, but we will see.  Also discussed is the massive destruction of the IRGC command structure as well as the regional power shift and Iranian responses associated with this.  It is unfortunate that Iranians seem to be sitting on their hands, as Or Yissachar, the IDSF Head of Research, anticipated might take place last fall, but perhaps subsequent events in the coming days will change this situation.  I think no one should be mistaken into believing this war is yet over.

Rabbi Jacob Herzog

The truce will not last long, as I explained to you earlier. But the strikes will target the Gulf.

This time, the strikes will include the UAE, and Burj Khalifa will become a focal point of danger.

Qatar will be struck again.

Iran: State disintegration, not regime change  

Peloni:  This is an important article

Martin Sherman

Iranian ethnic areas (Image by Mapper 01 – Own work, Wikipedia, CC BY-SA 4.0)

Israel cannot rely on regime change to ensure its security. It must aim at dismantling Iran into separate ethnic entities to ensure that, in the future, it will not become the grave menace that it was in the past.

Despite the uneasy and artificial “peace” agreement, imposed recently (and arguably prematurely) by Donald Trump, the debate still rages, and speculation still swirls around the Iran-Israel conflict—particularly over the irksome question as to how it will play out in the long run.

“This could have been written by Joseph Goebbels in Nazi Germany the 1930’s”  

Peloni:  The formerly silent support of Jew Hatred is something which has now become popularized today in America and across the world.  Indeed, no longer being deigned as a societal taboo, antisemitic notions and calls to action are simultaneously being celebrated in dining halls, street parades and more importantly in the halls of power, where the greatest threat of Jew Hatred might begin to work its will against the Jewish people.

Importantly, Jewish Americans have had a great ally in Trump, a true philosemite, whose demonstration of this fact has provided the world and America with a good and important example of his support for the Jewish community.  Unfortunately, it is no longer such examples which are needed in this current hour, but an actual advocate of equality who might react to this celebration of evil as is truly captured in the email sent to Dershowitz, but soo too in public debates, and in both the Democratic and Republican parties, as well.

Antisemitism be re-coded and re-characterized as the evil scourge which it had formerly been held, and having such an ally of the Jewish people leading the resurging American nation provides an important advantage in this hour.  While the change must come from within society itself, it requires a man of position, gravitas, credibility, and courage to call for this change. There is simply no one else who might champion this change within the American society as might be achieved with Trump leading the way.  He must act!

Janet Levy:  The election of CAIR-supported Zohran Mondani as the mayor of NYC will transform the Big Apple into London or worse.

The prospect of a Jew-hating, Communist mayor heading America’s largest city with America’s biggest Jewish population has NYC Jewish leadership urging all Jews to leave.

The UK currently has 125 sharia courts and growing. As major Western cities are toppled by Islam, our civilization is dying a slow death that presages a dire future for Jews, Christians, non-heterosexuals and other infidel groups.

Trump MUST speak out about Mandani before it’s too late.

Read about Mandani’s Hitlerian plans below.

A belligerent dictator building up his military arsenal. Nearby countries watching nervously. Free World leaders desperately offering concessions to appease him. That description applied to Adolf Hitler in the 1930s and, until very recently, to the mullahs of Iran.

IDF Confirms Iran’s Nuclear Program Set Back by Years  

Peloni:  The success of this campaign requires a change in regime in Iran.  It is that simple.  Failing to pursue this objective in a meaningful and prolonged manner will only lead to the mowing of a nuclear grass, so to speak.

Despite US doubts, Israeli strikes dealt a crushing blow to Tehran’s atomic ambitions.

Israfan | June 25, 2025

By Imagery from LANCE FIRMS operated by NASA’s Earth Science Data and Information System (ESDIS) with funding provided by NASA Headquarters. – https://firms.modaps.eosdis.nasa.gov/map/#d:2025-06-19;l:fires_all,earth;@51.82,32.57,14.00z, Public Domain

In the aftermath of Israel’s decisive 12-day campaign against Iran, the IDF is making it clear: Tehran’s nuclear aspirations have suffered a serious, long-term blow. Despite American intelligence estimates suggesting only a short-term disruption, IDF Chief Spokesman Brig. Gen. Effie Defrin firmly stated this week, “We set it back years. I repeat: years backwards.”
