• U.S. Message to Lebanon: The United States is reportedly increasing pressure on the Lebanese government to issue a cabinet decision demanding the disarmament of the Iran-backed Hezbollah terrorist organization. Without this commitment, Washington will no longer dispatch U.S. Ambassador to Turkey Thomas Barrack to oversee negotiations with Beirut’s government or put pressure on Israel to halt military operations and withdraw from southern Lebanon. “The U.S. is saying there’s no more Barrack, no more papers back and forth — the council of ministers should [make] a decision and then we can keep discussing. They cannot wait any longer,” a Lebanese source told Reuters.

Peloni:  The most vital responsibilities of the Israeli govt is to secure its land, protect its people and enforce the law.  As Doiny demonstrates, all of these areas are being abandoned thru the surrender of private Jewish and State lands to illegal Arab construction in Judea and Samaria by Israel’s own govt, something continues to this day.

Peloni:  The way to gain leverage over Hamas is to pursue victory, not negotiations.  Such blatant efforts placed on the gaining the release of th hostages has made them too great a prize for Israel to afford.

Israel’s leadership is considering how to proceed in the Gaza Strip, as the mediators continue attempts to revive the ceasefire talks with Hamas despite Israel and the U.S. having withdrawn their teams from Qatar following unacceptable demands by the terror group.

Peloni:  Rather than endorsing this obvious Hamas propaganda, Western leaders should be speaking out in sync with Netanyahu, condemning this charade for what it is.  The failure of Western leadership is at a crisis moment, leading them to endorse the very rhetoric which is being leveraged to support their own destruction. As reports of online influencers quietly delete images such as that below without commenting on their false reporting, will the leadership of the West continue in the same mood, ignoring the dishonesty, the cowardice and the consequences of their propagating anti-Western Fake News as substantive reports.

In an era where information travels faster than ever, the deliberate misuse of images and narratives to shape public opinion has become a potent weapon. A recent and glaring example involves a picture of a sick child in Gaza, falsely portrayed as a victim of starvation caused by Israel. It’s egregious that photos of the 5-year-old boy have been misused to depict Israel as responsible for his condition, buffering claims that Israel is starving children.

The Syrian revolution was not an uprising for liberty, freedom, or democracy. It was a manifestation of Sunni Islamists, backed by Turkey and Qatar, venting their rage against the rule of Assad, supported by Shia Islamist Iran. Syria’s Sunni Islamists did not care that Assad was a brutal dictator; they sought to replace him with their own autocrat.

Meet the Muslim-and-Communist dominated UNITED NATION’S Human Rights Commission on Palestine, campaigning for the first nation in human history that has never existed, but is anyway “occupied.”

Andrew Benjamin | Jul 29, 2025

The United Nations is the most objective, unbiased body of Islamists and antisemitic Islamist-enablers of thuggery and butchery this side of the Taliban. The United Nation’s Human Rights Commission has an internal motto: No amount of dead Jews will be enough. The logic is: When the Muslims are doing the killing and the Jews are doing the dying, all’s well with the world. When the Jews are doing the killing and the Muslims are doing the dying, it’s time for the UN’s security Council to enact another anti-Israel resolution.

Andrew Korybko | Jul 28, 2025

This outcome places the US on the path of restoring its unipolar hegemony via sequential lopsided trade deals as it likely sets its sights on the Americas next before finally taking on Asia.

Peloni:  Khaled Hassan, a foreign policy and national security researcher and a Council Member of President Herzog’s Voice of the People Initiative, speaks with reporter Daniel Ben Ami regarding a striking shift in Egyptian strategy vis a vis Israel and the West.  Drawing on several recent events, including the US sale of a long sought advanced air defense weapon system to Egypt, and shifting terminology of ‘hostages’ by Sisi, Hassan presents his conclusion that the US has recently given up on its policy of relocating the Gazans and Sisi will be removed in the near future.  I question if Hassan has it backwards, ie rather than Washington having surrendered it’s position on Gaza to Egypt, that it is Egypt who has surrendered its position to Washington.

Peloni:Matt Williams gives a fair analysis of the Ukraine situation following Trump’s shortening his previous 50 day deadline to a 10-12 day deadline seems to leave little to no chance for even an attempt at peace, raising many questions.  So, where might Trump’s policy of upending a long negotiating period for an impossibly short one ultimately lead?  How might Russia be expected to react to this reversal of policy?  And most importantly, how might Russia’s trading partners react?

October 7 attack.  By Hnuden – Own work, CC0, Wikipedia

On Oct 7, 2023, thousands of Muslim Jihadis swept from Gaza into Israel, killing, torturing, raping and kidnapping anyone in their path. The victims included not only Israelis or Jews, but Americans and Europeans, Christians and Buddhists, as well as those Bedouins whom the Hamas, PLO and Islamic Jihad attackers did not consider Muslims.

Once upon a time, there was a rock-ribbed conservative U.S. senator who tried mightily to get an über-conservative law passed but was met with great resistance by his liberal colleagues.  This went on not for months, but for almost two years.

On Mark’s Saturday Show, he opens with a review of how he came to break the story of Russiagate back in March 2017. Mark follows this up with a detailed explanation of the major details of the Russiagate attempted coup.  He also explores the import of the SCOTUS ruling which provides absolute immunity for only “actions within his [the president’s] conclusive and preclusive constitutional authority.  And that he is entitled to at least presumptive immunity from prosecution of all his official acts. There is no immunity for unofficial acts”.

There could be no national revival without moral and physical strength, and no lasting peace without respect—earned through resilience and integrity.

“So, today, I would like to reflect on these three sometimes-forgotten American virtues—honor, tradition and optimism.”

With those words, historian and pundit Victor Davis Hanson began the essence of his 2025 commencement address at Hillsdale College in Michigan. Although he was speaking of American ideals, these chosen virtues resonate powerfully in the life and legacy of Ze’ev Jabotinsky, the towering Zionist leader whose death we commemorate this August—85 years since he passed away in Hunter, N.Y., in 1940.

J.E. Dyer, a retired Naval Intelligence officer, blogs as The Optimistic Conservative, July 26, 2025

This article will intentionally be kept short(-er than usual) [Yes, that didn’t really work out – J.E.], because what I want to focus on is the nature and core purpose of the two approaches.  References to the raft of evidence referred to are readily available.  Nothing should be unfamiliar (though readers may not have revisited some known events or documentation for quite a while). Rather than build extensive application scenarios, I want to present the concepts in outline.
