The US has already agreed to give Saudi Arabia most of what they asked for, most likely including the F-35s.
Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman is in the US to celebrate the deal, not to discuss it.

The Egyptian state is a stratokleptocracy — that is, the rule of thieving military officers. Those military men, with General Abdelfattah el-Sisi himself leading them, are busy helping themselves, through sweetheart business deals with the state, to much of the nation’s wealth, and are driving legitimate businesses that lack such connections into bankruptcy. More on the Egyptian state’s cracking can be found here: “The Cornerstone Is Cracking: Why Egypt’s Internal Decay Threatens the Middle East’s Longest Peace,” by Amine Ayoub, Algemeiner, November 10, 2025:
Peloni: So as the American plan falls apart, they seem intent upon refusing to take responsibility for the policy failures which were in fact baked into the plan by the main authors, Kushner and Witkoff, who somehow saw their own lack of independence from Hamas-allied Qatar as some form of asset. The lack of credibility in making such a protestation only lend itself toward the plan’s failure, whether this was intentional or not. In fact, the plan thus far has resulted in the return of all but a few of the hostages, including all of the living. The return of the hostages, however, was never the extent of the Trump plan. That Trump would pivot towards so badly fumbling this initiative seems too impossible to accept. Is this all an attempt to get the last remaining hostages freed? Or is Trump so disingenuous as to reverse himself on the survival of Hamas intact from this war, something which he made clear that he clearly opposed from the very first interview he gave regarding the Gaza war, almost a year before he returned to the White House? Are we to believe that he is so corrupt, so beguilable, so villainous, as to now support the complete destabilization of the region, when stability is exactly what will make the IMEC possible, while the IMEC remains a key factor to Trump’s China strategy?

In their desire to push forward with the Gaza peace plan, U.S. officials are considering moving to the second phase of the ceasefire, despite the failure of Hamas to disarm or release all the hostage remains, an Israeli report claims.
Peloni: The notion that Trump is acting to isolate Israel is evident from the fact that the proposed UN resolution was devised from input from all the Sunni states but none from Israel as indicated HERE. Is this really where the Trump administration stands today? It makes little sense if it is true. For us to believe this, we would need to accept that Trump has folded on both his support for Israel, his opposition to Hamas, and his plans to engage China thru the development of the IMEC, of which a stable Middle East region is essential. For us to dispute this, we would need to ignore everything that is actually taking place on the ground, in the region as well as in the UN. Meanwhile Netanyahu is about to employ Trump’s support of Israel as the key pillar of his re-election plans which will take place in less than a year’s time or sooner. Is Trump really a villain, and is Bibi really tying his political future to Israel being marginalized?
Toward Israel too, he maintains a low profile, and repeats again and again his desire to reach a security agreement with it that would ensure quiet along the border between the two countries.

How did young Ahmed al-Sharaa become a jihadist? According to his account, the outbreak of the Second Intifada in the early 2000s led him to adopt a radical Islamic worldview, move from Syria to Iraq, and join the ranks of al-Qaeda and ISIS to fight American forces that had occupied that country. They captured him and he spent several years in American prisons before being released.
Peloni: The Gaza plan requires the defeat of Hamas. In the face of such diplomatic ineptitude as evidenced in the plan negotiated by Witkoff and Kushner, only Israel has the means, the interest and fortitude to do what is needed, and only Trump stands in the way of them doing it, as Trump has stated himself. If Trump’s hopes for something other than a Korea stalemate model in Gaza, he must finally step aside, stop negotiating with the Hamas butchers of his own citizens, and let this war finally come to its natural end. His initial instinctive choice to move the war trained Gazans to Egypt, Jordan and elsewhere was an inspired vision constructed upon the need of addressing the brutality and savagery endemic in the Gazan population. With the implosion of Kushner/Witkoff plan at the UN, the time is right to do what was always right, but the question remains to be answered if Trump will allow this to come to be.

Since its inception, the current Iranian regime has not been built on peace, but on the sword. The revolutionary slogans of the regime are not about coexistence or mutual respect; they are about domination, erasing enemies, and building an empire under the flag of the Supreme Leader. The regime has never sought to win influence by persuasion or diplomacy, but through nuclear weapons, ballistic missiles, and global assassinations.

Majed Al-Ansari. Screengrab via Youtube
The hostile comments that Majed Al-Ansari, who is now an advisor to the Qatari prime minister and spokesman for the Foreign Ministry, made against Israel should come as no surprise to anyone. His views reflect the official position of the state of Qatar, which is a chief funder of Muslim Brotherhood — of which Hamas is an offshoot.
Peloni: Why is it that neither the Arab nations nor Hamas are being required to fulfill their relative aspects of the Trump 20 Point Plan, while Israel has fully complied? And why is it that the same Mideast Negotiator who finds strength in his own conflict of interest, and whose previous negotiations have left Israel alone complying to his negotiated terms, now directly engaging with the Hamas terrorist who planned Oct 7 and has the blood of countless Americans on their hands?

Dietrich Bonhoeffer, the German theologian and fierce anti-Nazi, a man so dangerous to the Nazi movement that he was one of the last people they killed lest he taste liberation, was a man of extraordinary moral courage. For Tucker Carlson, however, he was a failed Christian for having dared to stand up to Hitler (and, probably, for having rescued Jews).

The post-World War II halcyon days for the American Jewish community in the United States have ended. New York City, which has more Jews within its population than any place on earth outside of Israel, elected its first jihadist mayor.
Peloni: It is vital that Israel maintain its strategic advantage in US military armaments til such time as Israel has its own innovative armaments being produced. Yet at the same time, the US will find the sale of billions of dollars of advanced military equipment to Saudi Arabia as being very tempting. So the question arises, is the loss of Israel’s strategic advantage worth MBS’ commitment to normalize relations with Israel, or even to join the Abraham Accords? I would think that the answer would be a hearty and resounding ‘NO!’ but I worry that this is exactly what might be coming in the next few days. The Saudis are experts at getting the Americans to do as they want during such negotiations, and the Saudis want the f35s…and nuclear power as well.

Assimilated German Jews insisted that Jews had nothing to fear if they behaved correctly, shed their national identity, rejected Zionism, and embedded themselves wholly within German society. Sound familiar?

In August 1933, only months after Hitler rose to power, a chilling interview appeared in the Jewish Telegraphic Agency. Dr. Max Naumann, a proud German patriot and the founder of the Verband nationaldeutscher Juden – the Association of National German Jews – declared his unwavering loyalty to the Nazi government. Even as Jewish livelihoods were being dismantled, professions confiscated, and families terrorized, this group of proper, non-Orthodox German Jews insisted that Jews had nothing to fear if they behaved correctly, shed their national identity, rejected Zionism, and embedded themselves wholly within German society.

I stopped counting the massive numbers of articles — both before and after the election of November 4, 2025 — that predicted the complete devolution/collapse/implosion of New York City, a huge exodus of both Jews and Christians, as well as businesses and the Wall Street financial district to friendlier climes in what was anticipated to be the full-fledged conversion of the Big Apple from capitalism to communism, from law and order to a runaway crime wave, and from historical diversity to full-bore antisemitism and the passionate embrace of Islamism and sharia law if Zohran Mamdani was elected mayor.
