There can be no debating that the UN is now unable to prevent the very wars, hate, injustice, and instability it was created to alleviate. The League of Nations was established and failed, so the UN was developed to succeed it. The UN, too, now must be placed in the dustbin of history.

When the United Nations was founded after World War II, it was meant to be the great corrective to the League’s impotence — a global institution capable of confronting aggression, protecting human rights, and promoting peace. But after nearly eighty years, the UN has not really proven any better than its predecessor. The UN is bloated, paralyzed, and utterly incapable of meeting the challenges of the world today.

Peloni:  As Israel and Saudi Arabia stand at an impasse based upon the creation of a second Palestinian state, it renders the Abraham Accords quite meaningless.  Do recall that the Abraham Accords was based upon removing the primacy of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, while allowing peace with Israel and the other Sunni nations to proceed.  Now with MBS requiring the creation of a second Palestinian state, it renders the entire basis of the Abraham Accords to be a hollow shell.  This provides an important context for Trump having allowed the f35 sale to Saudi Arabia to go forward.  Importantly, we are faced with the inevitable return of Arab states demanding a second Palestinian state just as Israel, following the October 7 Massacre, is more determined than ever to not agree to such a demand.  This of course does leave us with but one possible solution, namely that the first Palestinian state created a century ago should be recognized by one and all to be the Palestinian state which has been obscured by the self interest of one and all. After doing so, it would make many things possible, including normalization with the Saudis.

• MBS Investment and Diplomatic Ties: President Donald Trump warmly greeted Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman at the White House on November 18, signaling a closer relationship than under the Biden administration. Trump called bin Salman a “very good friend” and an “extremely respected man” during the Oval Office meeting. Trump stated that Saudi Arabia had agreed to invest $600 billion in the United States, with bin Salman revealing that the total amount would be closer to $1 trillion. The deals are expected to include investments in artificial intelligence, energy production, and defense.

Peloni:  Highly recommended video.  Natasha makes similar conclusions drawn by Eugene Kontorovich, that the support for the Palestinian state is non-binding, that it establishes the lack of credibility of the efforts of England and France to pretend that such a state exists already.  She also explains that the authority in Gaza is placed under the Board of Peace with Trump at the head of that board among other points.  For greater inspection on this, however, in another must read article, Global Disconnect provides a near line by line breakdown of the resolution, in which the language used is explained to have significant and foreboding repercussions for Israel as it has been sidelined from intervening in Gaza as Trump’s Board of Peace takes over.  Despite the statements by Kontorovich and Hausdorff, this resolution remains highly concerning as a potential tool to be used against Israel from more than one aspect.  Relevantly, it must always be recalled that the creation of a second Palestinian state has never been about liberating Palestinians from anyone, as it has always been about killing Jews and the conquest of the Jewish state.

Peloni:  There is near zero chance that Trump will come to aid Ukraine.  Ukraine’s needs are of the moment, but the US is entering into the midterm election season, during which it would be quite a toxic move for Trump to come to support Ukraine, and Trump will not threaten the chance of losing the congress to support the intransigent Ukrainians and their European allies.  The victory in this war was always going to be decided along the lines of who has the greatest means to stay in the war, and as I have mentioned many times, Ukraine will not be able to overcome their deficit of men, munitions and moral.  It appears we are approaching the point where the consequence of all of this goes from drip, drip, drip to an all out dam break.  The US can not stop this, even if this were Trump’s most fervent desire to do so.

Ukraine is now entering the Danger Zone. Ukraine’s army is running out of men and material, and worse than that, important parts of the army are trapped by Russian forces. This includes Pokrovsk, of course, Zaphorize and a number of other areas. Meanwhile, Russia continues to pound away at Ukraine’s critical infrastructure: at some point all normal services will collapse completely.

Peloni:  Saudi demands require a two state solution, but a two state solution has existed for the past century.  It came at the cost of 78% of the territory intended to be included in the Jewish Homeland in the League of Nations Mandate of Palestine thru the efforts of the mendacious British.  Accepting this fact could solve many problems in the region.  Requiring the creation of a second such state, however, would come at too great of a price, even for Saudi normalization.

Another terror attack today at one of the busiest intersections in the Judean Hills, minutes from my home and right near my army posts in reserve duty.

A car-ramming, followed by terrorists jumping out with knives.
One Jew murdered. Three more injured.

It was meant to be a much, much bigger attack, as several bombs were found in the car as well.

The shooting incident in an Arab ruling palace took place at the (Beit Al-Urdon) Palace in Amman. I fear it will not be the last — in fact, it may escalate soon.

Crown Prince Hussein and his mother, Queen Rania, survived miraculously, while two members of the Royal Guard were killed.

A very serious state of mourning in an Arab kingdom. The deceased may be young in age.

Far too many pro-Israel organizations and writers marked the 50th anniversary of the U.N. General Assembly vote to adopt Resolution 3379, which stated that Zionism “is a form of racism and racial discrimination,” by showcasing the efforts that the late Daniel Patrick Moynihan, the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations when the resolution was passed, made to work against it. While Moynihan was right in saying that “it is a lie which the United Nations has now declared to be a truth—and so the actual truth must be restated,” the United Nations still is an extremely anti-Israel institution.

Peloni:  In a near unanimous vote, the UN Security Council voted in favor of the US proposed resolution which indicates support for the creation of a second Palestinian state to be carved from land which was intended to be included in the Jewish Homeland over a century ago by the Allied Supreme powers at the end of WWI.  While the Palestinians have consistently differed with their Western supporters in having any aspirations of a state alongside the Jewish state over the past many decades, Western determination to serve up such a vehicle of Israel’s devastation has seemingly remained un-phased by these facts.  In the wake of the celebrations of Palestinians participating in the October 7 massacre, not to mention the joy with which Gazan crowds beat living and dead Jewish captives as they were dragged into the dungeons of Gaza, the support for the Trump administration to pretend that their efforts today will result in any peaceful resolution is either coldly mendacious or inexplicably naive.

For thirteen bloody centuries, from the 7th to the 20th century, the Arab Islamic slave trade ripped more than 17 million Africans from their homes, marched them across burning deserts and stormy seas, and sold them into a hell that makes the Atlantic trade look like a footnote. This was no mere commerce. This was systematic racial extermination dressed in religious robes. The Arabs didn’t just want labor. They wanted Africans erased: men castrated, women turned into disposable sex slaves, children bred out of existence. And today the woke mob screams about 1619 while deliberately burying this mountain of black corpses under a pile of silence. That silence is complicity. That silence is racist.
