Peloni:  In recent hours, Iran has predictably taken to threatening its ‘ceasefire’ which exists with the US.  This attempt to reassert the linkage between the war in Lebanon with Israel and the war in Iran with Israel and the US is significant.  It was a strategic error for Trump to have granted the linkage between these two fronts to Iran as the basis of his negotiating tract, and having the non-ceasefire finally collapse in Lebanon, it would be an ever greater error to acquiesce to Iran’s demand that this linkage be restored.  So we will see who blinks first, with either Iran ignoring the renewed assault on Beirut or with Trump renewing the linkage between the two fronts.  Notably, the Lebanese government has been playing its regular role of acting as Hezbollah’s toady, even as it can offer nothing but empty promises of doing more than the literally nothing it has repeatedly done following its many regular promises in the past.  It is time for this ruse to end.  Some matters can only be solved by war, and the case in point of dealing with the Armageddonist terrorists in Iran and its various proxies is clearly such a matter.

Peloni:  We are at the point in which we will finally see if the efforts to ban the Muslim Brotherhood under the Trump Executive Orders are merely window dressing statements or if they will have the real world effects of actually seeing the ban against the few branches of the Muslim Brotherhood thus far targeted being fully enforced.  Notably, as this site has asserted over the years, the Jordanian govt is linked to the Muslim Brotherhood, and their attempt to help the Muslim Brotherhood affiliate, IAF, avoid being subjected to this ban demonstrates this fact.  Notably, what is described below is an important plan of action for what is also taking place in the states of Texas and Florida in America where bans on the Muslim Brotherhood exist as well.  Notably, the Muslim Brotherhood have survived been banned previously by such chameleon practices described below being tolerated by the relevant govts involved in such dubious public displays which lacked the stamina to eliminate the influence of such a powerful entity as the Muslim Brotherhood.  So will the Trump administration ignore the chameleon tactics used by the Muslim Brotherhood to survive being banned once more, or will the US enforcement of the ban be implemented in such a way as to take the measured and necessary steps needed to eliminate Muslim Brotherhood influence in such Islamist tolerant (read as complicit) nations as Jordan.  The answer to this question will make evident the serious effect, or lack thereof, in the official ban on Muslim Brotherhood.  Trump’s Ban has the ability to reshape the Middle East, and America too if the Ban were extended to American shores, but only if it is implemented in a manner which enforces a full repudiation of the presence of the Brotherhood rather than simply forcing them the inconvenience of rebranding its many limbs once more.  Time will tell.

SUMMARY:
1. On January 13, 2026, pursuant to President Trump’s Executive Order, the U.S. Departments of State and Treasury announced the designation of Muslim Brotherhood (MB) chapters in Egypt, Jordan, and Lebanon as terrorist organizations. Treasury concurrently designated the Jordanian and Egyptian chapters as Specially Designated Global Terrorists (SDGTs) for providing support to Hamas.

Peloni: Don’t miss the double talking speeches by Sen. Schumer among other Democratic Party leaders in the second video at the bottom.

I understand the importance of the tradition of public officials participating in the Israel Day Parade, and the obvious implications of a Mayor governing over the largest congregation of Jews in America breaking with that tradition, but I see the realities surrounding this issue somewhat differently.  In fact, Mamdani’s evident policies and rhetoric supporting Jew Hatred and Jew Haters is self evident, and his presence at the Israel Day Parade would not only be a break with his policies and rhetoric, but it would have also undermined the honesty of the celebration simply by honoring him with any role in the celebrations which took place.  Indeed, when I watched the hypocritical statements of Sen. Schumer the Palestinian speaking about the concerns of the rise of antisemitism during the celebrations, I have to confess it made my blood boil.  In fact, the leadership of the Democratic Party betrayed the Jews of America with their support of the Mamdani mayoral candidacy, just as their betrayal also included the support of the policies which brought about the rise in antisemitic immigrants being actively shuttled into the US in general, and into New York specifically, while subsidizing the failing support of the Dems by actual Americans.

The left in the U.S. can’t win elections except by cheating, and that’s why leftists are fighting so fiercely against election reform. In Britain, meanwhile, the ruling Labour party is facing a challenge from a relatively new party, Reform UK, which wants to end the mass Muslim migration that has already transformed the UK and threatens to end its existence as a free society. Aware that it likely cannot win the next election, either,Labour is using charges of “Islamophobia” to try to destroy Reform, using the UK government as a tool.

Peloni:  The Israeli flag once again flies atop Beaufort castle.  This 900 year old Crusader structure stands atop the strategically situated mountain overlook from which Hezbollah attacks were coordinated against northern Israel following the Israeli withdrawal abandoned this key structure back in 2000. Shortly after the success of the capture of this ancient fortress, the French called for a meeting of the UN Security Council regarding Lebanon.  Meanwhile Channel 14 is reporting that major attacks across Lebanon will be taking place within 24 hours while coordinated with the US.  See Netanyahu’s comments at bottom.  Ben Gvir is calling for the flattening of the Hezbollah stronghold at Dahieh in southern Lebanon, but this is expressly contrary to agreements between Israel and the US at this point outside of specific targeted attacks, so don’t look for any such flattening strikes to happen.

In health care, vile hatred and threats against Israelis and Jews are patently ignored and even celebrated.

Historically, antisemitism was endemic in American medicine in the early to mid-20th century, with quotas on Jewish students and residency trainees until the 1960s.

But in 2023, antisemitic incidents dramatically increased, with a 140% increase from 2022 and the highest since data collection began in 1979.

Former ICC prosecutor’s shady intervention to subvert major Trump-sponsored peace initiative.

By MARTIN SHERMAN

The TRIPP treaty, officially known as the Agreement “On the Establishment of Peace and Interstate Relations between the Republic of Armenia and the Republic of Azerbaijan,” was signed by Armenia PM Nikol Pashinyan, Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev, and US President Donald Trump on August 8, 2025. Screengrab via Youtube.

When Donald Trump began his second term, his foreign policy goals were presented as a framework designed for the pursuit of peace and devoted to defusing wars and violence across the globe.

Peloni:  Well, I still argue that a good deal would require unconditional surrender, as the regime is not to be trusted to fulfill the terms of any agreement, and a tired West led by a growingly indifferent American polity can not be expected to enforce its will in the future against a regime which they are not even willing to hold to task regarding the meager outlines of what should have been seen as repeated and egregious clear violations of Trump’s self imposed ceasefire.  From the attacks on US allies by Iran, to the attacks on Israel by Iran’s proxy Hezbolllah, to Iran’s seizing of the Strait of Hormuz, the US has ignored all of this.  Hence, a deal, any deal, which might be signed by the beligerant, terrorist, Armageddonist Iranian regime should simply be understood to be a punt to tomorrow for what is politically difficult today…which was always the point pursued by the West in acquiescing to Iran over the past 50yrs.

A new U.S.-Iran nuclear deal may soon emerge — or at least an initial memorandum of understanding (MOU) to be fleshed out over 60 days. President Donald Trump pledged on May 27 that the United States will resolve the conflict with Iran peacefully and lift its naval blockade of Iranian ports — but only if Tehran agrees to a truly “great” nuclear agreement. If not, Washington will finish the job militarily.

Escalating pressure, both economically and militarily, is the right approach. The Obama administration’s weak P5+1 nuclear agreements with the regime in 2013 and 2015 left Tehran’s pathway to acquiring nuclear weapons fundamentally intact. Flush with billions of dollars in sanctions relief, the regime built up its terrorist proxies, missile arsenals, and drones — ultimately forcing Trump to confront it with both military action and sustained economic pressure.
