Time to Strike in Iran
Peloni: What makes Iran so special, so unique, as it has launched hundreds of ballistic missiles on a neighboring state, weaponized and deployed terror organizations stymieing international shipping, launched terror squads to execute Trump and Trump officials last year, and persists in its demand that it be allowed to enrich uranium which can have only one legitimate purpose. And in the wake of all of this, and more, the US continues to seek ways to preserve this rogue regime as it brutalizes its citizens, joins with drug gangs in South America, and still calls for the annihilation of the US and Israel, even as it ‘negotiating’ its for its own survival. Even under Trump, Iran’s proxies have murdered Americans with impunity, and still hold the remains of American they murdered, while threatening the US and Trump. So, once again, what stays the hand of the US military from bringing a fraction of the carnage to Iran as was brought down on the Houthis? It is past time that Trump act as Marziyeh has stated and strike Iran for any of what I described above, and a great deal more.
By Marziyeh Amirizadeh
It’s taken a few days for the West to wake up to and realize the significance of strikes that are taking place and widening throughout Iran, and to report on these. What’s needed now is for Western leaders to take action that capitalizes on these strikes, and empowers the Iranian people to replace the evil Islamic Republic regime which has threatened them and the world, causing immeasurable pain, suffering, trauma, and death for nearly five decades.

The Non-Existent Flu Cases of 2020
Janet Levy: How did flu cases plummet from 48 million in 2019 to 2,000 in 2020?
Financial incentives – 20% bonus payments for COVID diagnoses, hazard pay, FEMA reimbursements, emergency relief funds…coupled with bureaucratic overreach and media-driven fear.This was an opportunity to centralize authority and impose sweeping mandates – vaccine passports, masks, “non-essential business” closures – all without congressional oversight!This was the warping of scientific integrity that rightly shattered the public’s trust in the medical industrial complex.

A Review Of Hollywood Hebrew Support For The Pathetic Jonathan Glazer’s Scandalous Defamation of Israel
by Gerald A. Honigman
Back in early 2024, actors Joaquin Phoenix and Elliott Gould were among the other 151 Hollywood signers of a letter supporting director Jonathan Glazer’s scandalous speech in which, while accepting an International Film category academy award for his movie, “Zone of Interest,” he equated Israel’s forced defensive actions in Gaza—after having endured decades of Arab savagery stemming from that territory—to what Nazis did to Jews in the Holocaust.

Sanctions? Iran’s Secret Oil Network Fuels Its Regime
Iran is exporting 1.6 million barrels of oil every day. Thanks to a shadowy fleet, fake paperwork, and a global network of front companies, Tehran keeps its oil flowing, fueled by China’s backing. The West’s sanctions are failing spectacularly. Find out why and what it will take to finally cut off this illicit lifeline.
Saeed Ghasseminejad | May 24, 2025
Iran’s Thriving Oil Exports Despite Sanctions
A glaring gap persists between Western aspirations to curtail Iran’s oil revenue and the stark reality of its flourishing exports. Stated objectives, such as slashing Iranian oil to a mere 100,000 barrels per day, are dwarfed by current figures approaching 1.6 million barrels daily.

Celebrating a post October 7th Jerusalem Day Parade
Peloni: The shattering effect of October 7 changed the world, in ways which were both great and terrible. The quiet resolve supporting the Jerusalem Day celebrations is certainly to be counted among these. A powerful and important result of the sense of unity and identity which was previously far less universal than it stands today.
The parade, a long cherished part of the day’s celebration, was regarded with fear and loathing by the Left right through 2023. Now they are seen as teaching self-respect.
Published:
One way to gauge the change and difference the horrific October 7th massacre and the ensuing Swords of Iron war has made in contrast to the previous prevailing “conceptzia” is to consider the Jerusalem Day parade.

Israeli report claims Trump-Netanyahu phone call on Iran was tense, heated
Peloni: The final statement in this report by Noem seems to highlight Trump’s need to restrain Bibi as he continues to push forward on his efforts of negotiating with the duplicitous Mullahs, while failing to appreciate that there is no good outcome to be had which keeps the Mullahs in power. Good for Bibi for providing some upstream pressure on what will be Trump’s greatest failure should he succeed in his attempts at a ‘better deal’.
Homeland Security Secretary Noem says she and Netanyahu had ‘candid and direct’ conversation

Israel is a “Jewish and Democratic State”. What does it mean?
By Ted Belman
Martin Sherman in his seminal post, Distorting the Declaration, after noting that the protestors support the following David Horovitz’s, claim,
“Our Declaration of Independence promises that the State of Israel ‘will ensure complete equality of social and political rights to all its inhabitants irrespective of religion, race or sex; it will guarantee freedom of religion, conscience, language, education and culture…’”
argued, that while this is true, it was misleading. He wrote and proved, “the focus of Israel’s Declaration of Independence is overwhelmingly on Jewish sovereignty and political independence in the ancestral Jewish homeland—not on liberal democratic governance” as the protestors would have you believe.

Christian Zionists, Past and Present
Victor Sharpe
Zionism, simply put, is the Jewish people’s national liberation movement. Put in Biblical terms, it is the return from exile of the Jews to Zion – to that very special land promised by God to the first Jew, Abraham, and through Isaac, Jacob and the Jewish prophets to the Jewish people forever.
The Hebrew Scriptures equate Zion with the holiest city in Judaism, Israel’s 3,000-year-old capital city of Jerusalem. You can read numerous references in the Bible and the Psalms to the word Zion, such as in Psalm 135:21, II Samuel 5:7 and Isaiah 24:23.
The Biblical yearning of the Jews, ancient and modern, to return to their ancestral homeland is mirrored in the modern political usage of the term Zionism, first employed in 1890 by the Jewish author and poet, Nathan Birnbaum.

Israel Celebrates 58 Years Since the Reunification of Jerusalem
Peloni: Even amid war, the celebrations which define and characterize the Jewish state are not set aside. Among these one of the most relative celebrations is the, unification of, and Jewish connection to, Jerusalem.
Despite ongoing challenges, Jerusalem Day unites Israelis in joy and remembrance of a pivotal moment in Jewish history.

The country that pressured Palestinian Authority President Abbas to announce weapons transfer to Lebanese government
Peloni: This comes in the wake of an announcement of France and Saudi Arabia to co-chair UN conference on resuscitating the defunct two state paradigm in coordination with China and Canada.
In recent days, Palestinian Authority (PA) President Mahmoud Abbas made a rare visit to Lebanon, during which he declared the need for Palestinian weapons – specifically those held in refugee camps and by Palestinian factions in the Land of the Cedars – to be handed over to the state. According to a report that aired on Kan Reshet Bet on Monday morning, the driving force behind this move is Saudi Arabia.

China’s Covert Pursuit of Global Dominance
By Janet Levy | Am Thinker | May 27, 2025
Image from X.
China’s global ambitions are rooted in the allure of an ancient concept for the Chinese people—the Middle Kingdom, envisioning China as a divinely appointed ruling nation that is central and superior to others. In the Art of War, Sun Tzu crystallized this idea into the ideal of a benevolent Chinese emperor conquering the entire world—Tianxia, or All-Under-Heaven—without violence or destruction.

This Memorial Day, Let Us Remember
Peloni: The quote included in this essay by Gen. Lee has always been one of my favorites, since I was a young. In fact, war is the undoing of society such that society might be preserved, and the more terrible the war, the more lasting will be the resulting peace.

I noticed something years ago about class descriptions on college campuses. If a course’s subject matter included the word “war,” it was much more popular with students. A seminar on “organizational theory” might find a few takers; a seminar on “military organization and war planning” would attract too many students for most classrooms to hold. I asked a professor about this once, and he grinned slyly, reminding me that young professors who teach popular classes have greater career prospects. The observation struck me as a bit perverse.

Two-State Solution or Jordan Option? Your choice.
Peloni: Be sure to read thru the early comments which I and others made on this article below. The solution for the dilemma facing Israel today has long ago been described by Ted Belman, obm, and it remains so today. It is the Jordan Option, which only requires the US and Israel to act as if the Hashemites are a threat and that there is an alternative to them being maintained in power, one which is antithetical to the Islamist allied Hashemites, and that alternative is Mudar Zahran.
T. Belman [Jan. 15, 2024]: Be sure to read the comment that appeared on Jihad Watch. I reposted it.
By Ted Belman (24.7.22)
Pres Biden has come and gone with little to show for it. But he has, however, left some debris in his wake that will set the stage for Israel’s coming election.
While he reaffirmed his support for the Two-State Solution (TSS) he went on to say “the ground is not right at this moment to restart negotiations,” and,
”The two-state solution is still the best way to ensure peace and democracy for Israelis and Palestinians; however, I don’t see a near horizon for this solution.””
Both Prime Minister Lapid and Benny Gantz share that view. Lapid said ”A two-state solution is a guarantee for a strong, democratic State of Israel with a Jewish majority.”

SWITZERLAND looks like a war zone as Islamic jihadists are trying to kill Jews ther
Peloni: From the Nova concert on October 7 to the Amsterdam Jew Hunts of November 6-7, 2024 to the Washington Jewish Museum murders on May 22 and now back to Europe once more. The hatred and hunting of Jews must be faced and defeated. Jews who have the ability to arm themselves must take full advantage of training and protecting themselves, and the authorities must step up to provide their Jewish citizens with support and protection. But most of all, the citizens of the world must come to grips with knowing that they face a choice between living like civilized people or revisiting some of the darkest moments of world history as have be heralded by the rekindling of antisemitic fervor, which has made itself known in every age, but never before with such a resoundingly internationally global effect, as if from every corner of the world. In fact, it is the neighbors of the hunted and attacked Jews who will determine how successful and how well tolerated the current wave of global terrorism being raised against the Jewish people will come to be.
Switzerland, long seen as a bastion of peace and neutrality, now finds itself in turmoil. In a frightening escalation, a coalition of radical pro-Hamas agitators and their far-left useful idiot activists reportedly attempted to storm the main synagogue in Bern, to kill Jewish worshippers.
