Israel will continue to defend itself by itself, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu declared, one day after U.S. President Donald Trump’s surprise announcement of a ceasefire with the Houthi terror group.

“We’ve been dreaming of Jerusalem for many years. We’re the generation that fulfilled that dream. It shows the sacrifice that was there—the risks that were taken—the desire to get to Jerusalem at all costs.”

Peloni:  Rule by AI is the ultimate consequence of the tyranny of experts, but democracy should restored such that rule of the corrupt will be replaced with the rule of the governed, not to the rule of AI.

Large swaths of federal workers being terminated does not mean the end of government involvement in our lives. It just means you’ll no longer have humans making decisions that affect your life.

Many of us voiced concerns when Elon Musk said he was going to eliminate large numbers of federal workers.

Peloni:  It is interesting that Trump pulled Dr. Janette Nesheiwat’s nomination one day before her confirmation hearings were to begin.  So now that we have seen the confirmation of the former advocate of mRNA shots halted, might we soon see the Covid shots themselves halted, as they currently remain on the mandatory child vaccination schedule?

Also, something shared in other reports regarding Dr. Means is that she was significantly involved in the negotiated alliance between Trump and RFK during the last election season.

Peloni:  The victories in Judea & Samaria have been largely overshadowed by the successes in other fronts of this war, but they have been significant.

Peloni:  Freedom of the seas for all but Israel?  Trump said the Houthis had “capitulated”, but this doesn’t this sound like capitulation.  The Houthis are in fact taking a victory dance as they explain that it has been the US rather than they who have conceded.

The Houthi rebel group was quick to note that the ceasefire deal between it and the United States does not include Israel.

Peloni:  Honickman addresses the matter of the crisis surrounding the hostage crisis in the most accurate fashion possible.  The simple reality is that while the tragedy surrounding the hostages can never be ignored, it can not be allowed to dictate national strategy.  The attempt to manipulate Israeli strategy based around the fate of these victims was in fact the very reason why they were taken in the first place, and thus far, this fact has hobbled Israel’s response to the October 7 slaughter and the months long missile attacks from Gaza.  While including the return of the hostages as one of the war aims was inevitable, it nevertheless should never have been made the primary war aim.  It is time to end the war, not thru negotiations, and not in surrender, but in an overwhelming effort to effect a final victory over Hamas.

The hostage dilemma we can’t keep avoiding. We are doing everything we can to bring  them home — and we must continue to do so. But we cannot destroy Israel in the name of saving it. Opinion.

A friend and fellow author sent me, unfortunately, some current disturbing news that I had a bad feeling earlier was going to happen.

So let me get this straight as I’m seeing this unfold:

Houthis give Western and other shipping nations guarantees of no attack, but it continues to remain ok to blast Israel.

Peloni:  This is how Iran negotiates, with deception and terror.  Time for the West to wake up and end the reign of this hostile regime in Tehran.

Ambassador (ret.) Yoram Ettinger, “Second Thought: a US-Israel Initiative” | May 7, 2025

Is the Ayatollah regime a threat to the US?

*It has been claimed that Iran’s Ayatollah regime does not pose a threat to the US, nor would a nuclear Iran. Moreover, it has been suggested that just like a nuclear India, Pakistan and North Korea, a nuclear Iran may be a regional threat (e.g., North Korea), but not a global threat to the US.

*However, unlike India, Pakistan, North Korea, Russia and China, a nuclear Ayatollah regime would be the first ever apocalyptically megalomaniacal regime.

Iran has paid close attention to the decision by the Houthis to come to an agreement with the US. Oman helped mediate this agreement. Iran is watching the plans by US President Donald Trump to visit the region, and it is seeking to continue talks with the US.

Peloni:  So is Prof. Gil-White’s conclusion correct?  Are we being deceived by Trump commitment to deal with the Iranian menace?  Or is he the real deal?  And if the latter is true, how do we square the facts raised by Gil-White with reality?

Peloni:  So begins Iran’s effort for the Mullahs and their proxies to outlast Trump.

U.S. President Donald J. Trump just announced in the Oval Office that the Houthi terrorists in Yemen have told American officials that they will stop all of their attacks, including on international shipping in and around the Red Sea.

Peloni:  A fascinating interview with Mike Doran in which he explains the historical basis for Israel being viewed by the US as both an asset and liability, as well as how that relates to Trump’s policy following along the lines of Obama, to a point.  He also explains that Netanyahu has to walk a fine line with Trump in such a way as to support those voices in Trumps cabinet who would call for striking Iran over those voices who would hold him to the Obama-like measured approach.  Much more as well.
