The US erred when it did not establish clear red lines for negotiations with Iran regarding the timeframe – after all, Iranians are known as “champions” in procrastination and stalling.

The attack has been postponed but it will surely come – this is what Iranian Chief of Staff Mohammad Bagheri promised last week, even threatening that this attack would be more painful than its predecessors and cause heavy damage and casualties.

Peloni:  In his opening segment on the April 26 show, Mark discusses the concept of due process, and how it has been misapplied over the years.  He shares the reality that the Founding Fathers intended for the three branches of govt should each regulate their individual branches, but that the Judiciary exceeded their authority by seizing the power to set policy for the other branches.  He also explores the inconsistent rulings which have been made by SCOTUS, and that the real purpose of the current call for due process is to inject anarchy into the system to obstruct Trump’s immigration policy and to achieve “revolution by immigration” and thereby completely alter the fabric of the nation’s values and destroy the US.  In his second segment, Mark talks with Gen. Jack Keane about the impossibility of allowing Iran to have even a civilian nuclear program.  Keane explains that Iran is currently more vulnerable than ever, and that they would be even more vulnerable after an attack by Israel, with or without US.  In the final segment, Mark talks with Former DOJ Prosecutor, Jim Trusty, about the historical deference of due process to different branches.  He also explains that due process should in many instances be limited to the use of administrative hearings, and that many of the judges involved in the call for due process are clearly activist judges, intent on fighting the administration, not on due process and that their attempt to change the status quo is intended to overwhelm and defeat the system rather than to pursue justice.

Peloni:  For the first 40mins of his speech, Netanyahu presents a detailed review of the ongoing war to defeat Israel, beginning back with the founding of the Jewish State, in which differing tactics have been used over the years in an attempt to destroy it, culminating in the current multi-front war with Iran and its proxies.  Towards the end of the speech, Netanyahu makes the point that the only deal which might be made with Iran is one which completely dismantles Iran’s entire nuclear program as was done in Libya.  He additionally highlights the need to simultaneously eliminate Iran’s ballistic missile program which will lead to the targeting of every city in America if it is not ended.  He relates the relevance of ongoing war with the Deep State which opposes the right of the people to be ruled by a govt of their choosing, and he closes by calling for the need to fight back against the campaign of lies being mounted in America, which is being successfully waged amongst the youth of America, by foreign govts and by NGOs who fund social media influencers to attack the supporters of Israel on both the Right and the Left.  He challenges that Israel’s friends and allies must do “more, more and more” to fight back against this ongoing public opinion campaign with the truth because the support which has been drawn together by Israel’s enemies can be reversed by standing up and fighting back with the truth, which of course was the point of the first 40 minutes of his speech.

Peloni: While David (speaker in video) states that Trump is business partners with Carney, he doesn’t show this.  He does, however demonstrate a great deal of common interests between Trump and having Carney win the election, something which Trump has made clear is his preference in this election.  The video begins with David stating unequivocally that “I’m going to show you how Mark Carney Elon Musk and Donald Trump are business partners” but he falls somewhat short of showing Trump’s business ties to Carney.  At about 4min., David explains “everything goes to Stripe, that everything is centered around Stripe”, but Trump is completely unconnected to this company.  Indeed, David waits til twenty seconds before the end of the video to state “I wouldn’t be surprised if Trump has a lot of investments in Stripe as well”, demonstrating the lack of any clear connection.  Notably, the closest connection which he shows between Trump and Stripe is the connection between Jared and the Qatari bailout and between Jared’s brother Joshua (who David fails to mention detests Trump) and an investment in Stripe.

So, the main truth to be drawn from this video, as I assess it, is that, as David explains at about 7:30 min, Trump and Musk have interests outside of Canada as Carney seems to have as well.

To be certain David has done an impressive and important job exploring a strong basis for Trump wanting Carney instead of Poilievre, but I would argue that his assertion of Trump being business partners with Carney is unsubstantiated in this video.  He is, however, quite correct that Canada is being sold out by Carney.

My good friend Bill often passes on very thought provoking comments. His latest involved the recent Passover/Easter season and, among other things, noted the Judaean rabbi, Jesus, forming the connecting link between Hebraic monotheistic religious beliefs and Christianity. I’ll add extra historical context and background as I proceed.

Bill refers to the two men also crucified along with Yehoshua as petty criminals.
I’ll deal with this below because the reality was quite different, and if you’ll read the following linked article and pay close attention to the latter half, you’ll understand why. The very last link at the end is essential as well.

What, if anything, is to prevent a rogue state such as Iran from concealing its nuclear program?

About two-dozen Mossad agents broke into a clandestine warehouse in the middle of an industrial section of Tehran on Jan. 30, 2018, making away with more than 100,000 documents outlining the Islamic regime’s nuclear-weapons work. This collection covered years of Iran’s nuclear archive, including the AMAD Project’s production plans, enrichment projections and warhead designs.

I have no problem acknowledging that some Jews, especially outside of Israel, feel uneasy about figures like Itamar Ben-Gvir. People can argue about his past actions, his political style, or certain statements, and not want to vote for him in Israeli elections. Reasonable people can have real discussions about these things.

Each round of diplomacy gives Iran’s regime more room to maneuver, more time to develop its weapons, and more resources to fund terror proxies across the Middle East and Latin America. The result is not peace — it is proliferation. Pictured: Iranian Airborne Cruise Missile (Photo by Tasnim News Agency, CC BY 4.0)

• Talks offer hope of sanctions relief, currency stabilization, and international legitimacy — all while buying time to continue uranium enrichment behind closed doors. The West calls it a “deal.” Iran calls it a jackpot.

• Talks Continue: A third round of negotiations between the United States and Iran over the future of Tehran’s nuclear program took place on April 26 in Muscat, the capital of Oman. The technical talks, mediated by Oman, lasted several hours between delegations led by White House envoy Steve Witkoff and Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi. Iran’s top diplomat said that the “presence of experts” in Saturday’s discussions “was very useful.” The negotiations followed two previous rounds of talks in Rome on April 19 and Oman on April 12.

Make Iran Great Again

MG Paul E Vallely & Cyrus Force Iran | | Apr 23, 2025

A Letter to President Trump and Mr. Witkoff,

Have you read the Constitution of the Islamic Republic of Iran?

Are you aware that eight articles in this constitution clearly state that the Iranian regime must fight the United States to the end? When it was written 46 years ago, it even predicted that after 42 years, the U.S. would be defeated and the Islamic regime would dominate the entire world.

Peloni:  Clear likelihood of US strike remains, but down from previous estimate.

Khaled Hassan | X | April 23, 2025

Original Prediction (90% likelihood of U.S. strike):
My earlier forecast of an imminent U.S. military strike against Iranian nuclear facilities rested on five interconnected factors:

1. Iran’s Defiant Posture: Tehran’s refusal to engage in direct talks, rejection of demands to dismantle its nuclear program, and threats against U.S. regional assets created a volatile backdrop.
2. Trump Administration’s Maximalist Demands: The U.S. explicitly ruled out reviving JCPOA-style limits, insisting instead on full dismantlement of Iran’s nuclear infrastructure. President Trump’s threats of overwhelming military force (“bombing the likes of which they have never seen”) mirrored this uncompromising stance.

Peloni:  MEMRI’s Yigal Carmon explores the history of Al-Jolani as he morphed from a pan-Arab Jihadist to a Syrian nationalist, explaining that the fate of the people of Syria will be defined by the degree of their acceptance of the rule of Islam under this new Islamist dictator.  While it wouldn’t change the predictions for the future, it is curious that Carmon did not relate the relevance of Jolini being Turkey’s puppet.

You’re always going to see the worst of the worst, and the RPGs that are going to be fired, they’re going to you. And the explosives that are going to be blown up, they’re going to blow up on you. And the people who are going to die, you’re going to be the one to see them die.

Peloni:  Trump’s pro-Israel policy during his first term provided the context of a greater vision of security and stability in a region noted for its intractable dedication towards terrorism and chaos.  In fact, the sentiments which filled this speech should characterize the policies of Trump’s second administration.  A stronger, safer, more secure Israel makes for a stronger, safer and more secure America.  The mutual interests and values shared between these two great nations have been badly betrayed by policies put in place, both before and after Trump’s first term, and this betrayal has brought the contest between barbarism and civilization to a head, as Trump seeks to deal with the Iranian nuclear menace.  So, as his advisors and envoys seek to reassert Obama-like deals, it begs the question of whether the civilizational advocacy which Trump promoted in this speech some eight years ago has been replaced by something more timid, or if he continues to stand resolved to

“…drive out the terrorists and the extremists from our midst, obliterate this evil ideology, and protect and defend our citizens and people of the world.”

While growing up in Moscow, I never once encountered Jews who hated Israel or wished her ill. Now, in Israel as well as among Diaspora Jewry, a series of betrayals, shame and meanness are imprinted in my memory like a newsreel.

I grew up in Soviet Moscow, in a largely Jewish environment. We often talked about Israel, discussed what was happening in Israel, worried about this country.

I DO NOT REMEMBER a single example when I encountered disdain and negative attitudes toward Israel among Moscow Jews. Some preferred to discuss this topic in a whisper – more than understandable, given the regime’s prohibitions. Some were bolder.
