Peloni:  Hypocrisy turned liberals into totalitarians, colleges into war zones, and court rooms into political rallies.  Indeed, the loss of power by the elites brought them to use every aspect of society against the consent of the governed so as to maintain their control over the masses, only to reveal the very real gross perversions which have come to inhabit and corrupt Western society and Western values towards this purpose.  Only thru a process of diligence and determination by the people themselves might the full measure of this tragedy be undone, and much of the heavy lifting in this process is still yet to be performed.  Notably, conserving the importance of the past amidst the unveiling disorder inherent in the age of emerging AI was always going to be a challenge, but for this to be the moment in which the rule of the elites was to be restricted to the will of the people has presented an altogether different and daunting aspect to this equation.  Conserving the foundations of the past in combination with the essential and beneficial innovations of the present is how societies progress into the future without losing track of the values and influences which formed the ties which bound them as one.  So, while the war with the liberals-turned-totalitarians is not yet over, it is vital that the earth shaking innovations of AI be adopted in such a way as to support the foundations of the Western world, even as this foundation is being resurrected.  Failing to do so will only serve to complete the goals pursued by the liberals-turned-totalitarian-hypocrites when they killed liberalism as Daniel so brilliantly describes below.

Liberalism is dead and liberals killed it

Daniel Greenfield | April 23, 2025

A handful of years after they cheered a president flanked by armed soldiers declaring half the countries to be enemies of the state, liberals are denouncing President Trump as a dangerous authoritarian. The misinformation censors of yesteryear have suddenly discovered that they love free speech and the men who filled D.C. with federal troops worry about the right to protest.

They’re firing them from civilian homes. Every house, every single piece of infrastructure that is used in Gaza is used to kill Jews. Each and every single house.

Peloni:  Trump simultaneously ends DEI and re-installs the requirement from his first term of foreign donations to US colleges, the latter having been cancelled by Biden.  A return to meritocracy and financial transparency in US centers of education.

Peloni:  Trump’s Turkey policy will be seen to be pivotal to the stability of the region, particularly if he is successful in dealing with Iran’s nuclear program.  He should not be securing this rogue nation with the means to further expand its borders at the expense of its neighbors, and allowing him to return to the F35 program will do exactly this.

Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan recently declared Ankara would purchase an estimated $20 billion in American spare parts, ammunition, and electronics for its military. Turkey wants more than just spare parts. It wants to be re-admitted to the small club of countries that can purchase the advanced F-35 jet fighter. Turkey was booted from the program in 2019 for purchasing the Russian-made S-400 air defense system, defying explicit warnings from the Trump administration.

We must never forget—not only the horrors of the past but the miracle of the present. and how they are connected. Because If a sovereign Jewish state had existed in the 1930s, millions of Jews could have been saved.

Today, on Yom HaShoah, we stop everything.

Sirens will wail across Israel. Cars will halt in the middle of highways. People will stand still in offices and supermarkets.

An entire nation freezes—for two minutes of sacred silence.

Peloni:  This is a very important first step.  I agree with CHD’s call to have the access to these shots prohibited.  Healthy children face no harms from the Covid shots, making every adverse event suffered by a child easily avoided.   The long wait for what should seem to be a preliminary step to further restriction, if not a recall, has been disappointing and worrisome.

According to the two people who spoke to Politico on condition of anonymity, HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has advocated internally to have the CDC stop recommending COVID-19 vaccines for children, arguing there is little scientific evidence that the shot provides a benefit to babies and young children.

Peloni: Israel must ignore the call of the international community to fuel Hamas’s terror war.  Smotrich is again quite correct.  End any support of the enemy, and force them to choose between surrender and obliteration.  There can be no third alternative offered to them.

Last month, one-month-old Roxana was wrested at gunpoint from her mother Emily Yazdani’s breast by police and Child Protective Services (CPS) of Loudon County, Virginia. CPS placed the infant in a “foster to adopt” program before being returned to her parents after eight days. A few vigilant websites reported it, but mainstream media ignored this heartless snatching.

What is so alarming about the Holocaust is the involvement of average people, many of whom participated not so much out of hatred of Jews, but because this was part of their job. And then there is the intelligentsia.

Dr. Alex Grobman | Apr 22, 2025

“There are events of such overbearing magnitude that one ought not to remember them all the time, but one must not forget either. Such an event is the Holocaust,” declared Rabbi Israel Spira, the Bluzhover Rebbe. Although the rebbe survived the Shoah, his wife and children were not so fortunate—all of them were murdered by the Nazis.

Remembering is a critical part of what it means to be a Jew, Rabbi Yitz Greenberg reminds us. Because we recall that we were once slaves in the land of Egypt, we view those living in desperate circumstances differently from people who never suffered. Our memory and experience of the Exodus commands us to treat people with love and compassion.

It’s instructive to review how some groups asking American Jews for financial support describe themselves.

Why do so many American Jewish organizations today seem so reluctant to speak forthrightly about their support for Israel and even more reluctant to use the word Zionism?

Peloni:  Highly recommended video.  Natasha provides an exhaustive analysis of international law and how it is actively being manipulated by Israel’s antagonists to achieve political objectives rather than being based on well based legal arguments.  Pay particular attention to the 30 min. segment beginning at about 8min.

Peloni:  As Bibi explained, surrender is not an option.  Victory is the only way this war can end.

Peloni:  Only amid the successful pro-Ukrainian propaganda campaign might this story be surprising to anyone.  Recall the reports made by Eduard Dolinsky, executive director of the Kyiv-based Ukrainian Jewish Committee.  Antisemitism in Ukraine is not a point of fiction or Russian disinformation, it is a well featured part of Ukraine’s history which is celebrated even to this day.  Indeed, many will recall the scandalous event of Zelensky saluting an SS Panzer Nazi, Yaroslav Hunka, in the halls of Canada’s parliament, but how many are aware that the Ternopil Regional Council in Ukraine bestowed the horrifically honorific ‘Yaroslav Stetsko’ Metal on Hunka as well?  Or that this award was named after Stephan Bandera’s colleague who stated “I insist on the extermination of the Jews and the need to adapt German methods of exterminating Jews in Ukraine”?  Ukraine has a Nazi problem, and ignoring this fact will not change the reality which comes from it.  These facts might appeal to some among the Woke Right, but it should truly disgust decent people of all walks of life.  Interestingly, while Zelensky failed to reproach his salute to Hunka in Canada, he also stood silent while Hunka received the Stetsko Metal of Honor.  Also where is Zelensky’s well crafted photo op visiting the synogogue in Kryvyi Rih, highlighting and condemning this attack on the Jews of Ukraine?  It won’t be coming any time soon.

Incident is only one of several recent antisemitic attacks in Ukraine

A synagogue in the Ukrainian city Kryvyi Rih was attacked on Saturday night with a Molotov cocktail. The incident, which is only one of several recent antisemitic attacks, has left the local Jewish community concerned about growing levels of antisemitism in Ukrainian society.
