If you learned about the Alien and Sedition Acts in school, you probably took in the liberal position that they were an unconstitutional abuse of authority by an administration that was abusing its power.

The reality, as I discuss in my book, ‘Domestic Enemies: The Founding Fathers’ Fight Against The Left’, they were a response to persistent efforts by France to hijack American politics by using radical activists, fake news and riots, conspiracies involving members of Congress. French agents went on to create a network of ‘Democratic Societies’ to act as their agents which ultimately blended into the Democratic-Republican Party.

Excerpt from The Book “Holy-War: Rome and The Jews” [Also known as “Ben Hur II – Exile”

Joseph Shellim

The Roman war with the Jews did not end in 73. The exiled Jews battled Rome in the Diaspora,  culminating in the Kitos War of 115-117. A third war occurred with the Bar Kokhba Revolt in the  years 132-136, the Jews’ struggle for Jerusalem continuing into the second century. In the year  135 CE, a new king rose up in Rome who knew not Israel. Publius Aelius Traianus Hadrianus  Augustus, known as Emperor Hadrian, sets out on yet a final achievement of Roman glory, one  following the destruction of Jerusalem and its Temple fortress.

As Iranian regime inches closer to its desired doomsday weapon, the rationale for a countervailing triaxial alliance between the US, Israel and Azerbaijan has never been more compelling

“When a wise man hears of the Tao, he immediately embraces it. When an average man hears of the Tao, he ignores it. When a foolish man hears of the Tao, he mocks it. If he did not mock it, it wouldn’t be the Tao.”

Tao Te Ching (Ancient Chinese philosophical text) – Verse 41

The landslide victory of Donald Trump in the November 2024 elections set the proverbial cat among pigeons. Suddenly, things that previously appeared totally impossible—or at best, highly improbable—look increasingly feasible.

Peloni:  For those not well acquainted with the background of Minsk I and Minsk II, they each came about in connection to the encirclement of a Ukrainian army at the battles of Ilovaisk (2014) and Debaltseve (2015), respectively.  So with the Kursk offensive now becoming the Kursk encirclement, a new irony arises with the question of whether the proposed ceasefire will simply be another attempt by Ukraine to save their forces from being destroyed, so that they might fight another day.  Of course, one distinction which exists between now and a decade ago is that America is no longer led by the Obiden cabal, leaving Trump with the task of playing the role of a fair arbiter between the two waring sides rather than being a full partner in aiding Ukraine’s deceptions towards continuing the war at a later date. 

Russian President Putin Says They Will Spare Ukrainian Soldiers in Kursk if They Lay Down Their Arms and Surrender

Sundance | Mar 14, 2025

Why isn’t Volodymyr Zelenskyy the one asking for mercy?  That’s the larger, unspoken message from Russian President Vladimir Putin.

Linda Goudsmit:  Igal Hecht’s film “The Killing Roads” is an essential documentary that records and archives the horrific massacre and savage brutalization of 1200 Israeli civilians by Hamas terrorists on October 7, 2023. What Igal Hecht’s film and his interview do not documment, however, is the inconvenient truth that October 7th could never have happened without the treasonous participation of Israeli leftists inside Israel. NEVER AGAIN is an empty slogan without acknowledging this cruel and unusual fact. In America as in Israel, the enemy within is always the most dangerous. Until they are stopped, the globalist elite will continue funding and fomenting its leftist collaborators to wage War on America in America, and wage War on Israel in Israel AGAIN AND AGAIN AND AGAIN.

Biblical Bashan.  Bibleplaces.com

The hypocritical world community is perpetually hostile to the reconstituted Jewish state over its seeming temerity to be rebuilding and restoring its ancestral and Biblical homeland. This time it is convulsed with utterly illegitimate charges of Israel “stealing” land from Syria on the Golan Heights. But let us look into who truly has the undeniable historic and spiritual claim to the territory from time immemorial.

Peloni:  It is important to recognize that Israel stands alone as a spot of civilization among barbarian forces.  Syria has been, and remains to be, a failed state, ruled by representatives of these barbarians, and yet as the world continues to restrain, debase and literally indict Israel as it defends itself against these barbarian forces, the Alawites demonstrate the regional clarity that Israel alone might act as their saviors.  Unfortunately for the Alawites, the Syrian coast is a bridge too far for Israel to stretch its dominance, and while recognizing this fact as likely so, the Alawites call upon their historic adversary to the South to save them from destruction all the same.

Now, after two days of mass murders of Alawite civilians — between 1,500 and 4,000 have been killed, according to Alawite sources — Ahmed al-Sharaa has declared that his army will find and punish those responsible. The Alawites don’t believe these assurances, and they are in a state of panic. And some are hoping that the country they have been taught for their entire lives to hate — Israel — will come to their aid. That is unlikely to happen, but the fact that Alawites dare to hope for such a result is telling: they know the Israelis are not the monsters they were depicted as being in Syrian schoolbooks and in the Syrian media. It is their fellow Muslims who have been slaughtering them, not the soldiers of the Jewish state.

Canada’s new Liberal leader, Mark Carney, soon to be sworn in as unelected prime minister, bemoans the plight of Gazans, now without electricity. But he doesn’t even mention the name Israel. Rather, he calls on Canada to “work with our allies to stand up for international law to promote sustainable peace and security in the Middle East and to support full access to humanitarian aid for Palestinian families.” So he’s calling for international allies to put pressure on Israel in a rather sneaky fashion, with no mention whatsoever that it is the fault of Hamas, which continues to use Palestinians as human shields. Carney also does not state why Israel cut electricity. It was to pressure Hamas to release the hostages held in Gaza.

“History is experimental politics; this is the best or rather the only good politics” (19th century French conservative thinker Joseph de Maistre)

What future can we see in the light of history – “experimental politics”?

To answer this question, we will have to take a brief historical excursion to the Middle East, the cradle of civilization.

We will compare two epochs: the epoch before the Muslim ruling and the present one.

There are Holocaust-deniers, who claim that accounts of the Nazi genocide are all a hoax. There are October 7 deniers, who say that Hamas did not commit any atrocities during its 2023 invasion. Now it seems that a new type of denier is emerging—the Bibas deniers.

Peloni:  Diplomacy is such a lost technique that many in the West perceive this practice of employing empathy towards an attempt to anticipate enemy actions as being either supplication or appeasement.  The consequence of a lack of diplomacy is what started this war.  It is time to reverse this policy failure, and turn the hot war into some form of peace, be it hot or cold, but neither will be achievable in the absence of the diplomatic arts.

The key to Russia’s nuclear arsenal lies in its stealth submarines. If Trump really wants peace, threatening a fellow nuclear-armed super-power is not going to get the job done.

Americans are not being adequately informed about Russia’s military capabilities. If you rely on the mainstream corporate media for your information, you would get the impression that Russia operates a relatively backward military and that its president, Vladimir Putin, is all bark and no bite, full of bluster and not to be taken seriously when he or his aides draw hard red lines against Western backing for Ukraine.

Peloni:  Gadi Taub and Mike Doran discuss the situation in Syria where Doran insists that Israel is making a very great mistake in any effort to support the Alawhites or the Kurds.  He also provides his perspective that based on the recent agreement between the Kurds and Syria’s Al Shaara demonstrates that the facts on the ground have already out paced this effort, with the complete support of the Trump administration.  Doran goes on to suggest that contrary to claims of thousands of deaths, upwards of 17,000 deaths, there have been only some 1,300 deaths and among these, Doran remarkably attests that only 4-5 Christians have been killed, something which does appear to be far too specific and far too minimal without ascertaining as to where this claim might originate.  Doran offers one point of generalized support for this remarkable statement by referencing a video (see Video) which shows the Turkish backed Jihadis dehumanizing and abusing Shia while claiming that the Shia victims are Christians.  While this piece of Iranian disinformation is relevant and informative, it doesn’t explain the more specific number of only 4-5 Christians having been killed in Syria.  Beyond this, the topics of the ongoing feud between the Israeli govt and the judiciary is also explored as well as the reported and not refuted claim of Bibi being blackmailed by the security services.
