Australia: Iranian sets fire to synagogue as worshipers eat dinner inside  

Peloni:  These attacks on Jews and Jewish property is becoming more and more routine in Australia…and elsewhere.

By

All over the world, violent attacks on Jews are proliferating, and the perpetrators persist in thinking they occupy the moral high ground.

Gaza Still Fighting, Still Falling—Here’s Why  

Peloni:  It is scandalous that Israel continues to be restrained from victory in this war while being forced to feed, fuel and thereby fund the butchers of October 7 who should have long ago been eliminated.  As Avi explains, madness is guiding Israeli along a policy of pulling punches and needlessly sacrificing more and more IDF soldiers on the same ground previously won and previously evacuated.

Tucker Carlson Slammed for Airing Unchecked Interview With Iran’s President  

Peloni:  Immediately before watching the Carlson interview with Iran’s president, people should rewatch his interview with Sen. Ted Cruz, or watch the near decade old interview which Carlson had with John Bolton.  Hard questions were seemingly the entire point of Carlson’s interviews with Bolton and Cruz, with the latter interview being just a few weeks old.  Yet in the time since then, he seems to have lost his appetite for hard question in an interview which lacks any commentary or questioning over the Iranian govt’s many atrocities against Israelis, Iranians and particularly Americans.  Shame on Tucker Carlson…again.

The Shadowy Past of the Secret Bank That Controls the World  

By Janet Levy | Am Thinker | July 9, 2025

Few people—even diligent media followers—are likely to speak knowledgably about the Bank of International Settlements (BIS). Yet, hidden in plain sight in a 20-story tower (with four more stories below ground level) in Basel, the BIS influences the leaders of the world’s top central banks and controls the global economy. Moreover, it cannot be questioned or held accountable for any of its actions. In his 2013 book Tower of Basel, Adam LeBor, a former reporter for The Economist and author of thoroughly researched works such as Hitler’s Secret Bankers, The Last Days of Budapest, and City of Oranges, analyzes the bank’s history to explain how it gained unlimited power.

12 Important Questions That All Americans Should Be Asking About The Shameful Attempt To Cover Up The Truth About Jeffrey Epstein  

Peloni:  Michael Snyder examines what can only be described as incompetence at the minimum, and suspected complicity at the worse, which will forever surround the Trump administration’s handling of the Epstein case.  As the promise of “all will be revealed” wass meekly replaced with the proposed guarantee that there was nothing relevant to discuss, with the routine attempt to bury this change of concept regarding Epstein, his co-conspirators, the evidence of his guilt and his already divulged connection to the intelligence world, as this drastic change of narrative was made over the July 4 holiday.  Indeed, if the claim that celebrated notoriety of the Epstein case was just a fiction, a solemn and thorough disclosure of the facts needed to be produced to the public in such a way as to merit the value already assessed to the charges by both Trump administration officials such as AG Bondi, as well as by the American public in general.  Notably, Trump voiced some reluctance about declassifying the Epstein files about a year ago, but Bondi in particular provided a foreboding commentary regarding the importance of the Epstein revelations, already having turned the re-release of previously revealed documents into a media circus.  Promises made deserve to be kept, and when expectations fail to materialize, it heightens, rather than eliminates, the need to highlight the change of narrative, and more importantly, a full, rather than dismissive, explanation for why those changes took place.

The Oslo Peace (of the grave) Plan, the Emirate of Hebron Alternative, & Perhaps Hope For A Better Tomorrow…  

by Gerald A. Honigman

Reports have surfaced in the Wall Street Journal and elsewhere that a significant number of Hebron’s most prominent sheikhs have proposed to leave the blood soaked Fatah’s PLO/Palestinian Authority and join the Abraham Accords in Judaea and Samaria.

The latter were not renamed “West Bank” until Transjordan illegally snatched the lands west of the Jordan River after invading a nascent Israel in May 1948. Question: Was Yehoshua/Jesus born in Bethlehem of Judaea or Bethlehem of the “West Bank?” Check out the New Testament’s Gospels for an answer.

Hamas was created in 1987, and its raison d’etre’s charter calls for the total obliteration of the sole, minuscule, resurrected nation of the Jewish People, which emerged on about 14% of the original April 25, 1920 Mandate of Palestine after what is now Jordan was gifted with almost 80 % of the total area in 1922.

When “Shylock” Matters  

Peloni:  The incident of Trump, the most pro-Israel and greatest friend the Jews have ever had in the White House to date, using an well known antisemtic trope, calls to mind the recent article by Jonathan Feldstein, Elon Musk, the Holocaust, and Antisemitism, in which he explains that situations such as Trump’s Shylock comment offer an important “learning opportunity and something from which positive things could come out”.

President Donald Trump says he did not know that the term “Shylock” has antisemitic connotations, when he used it in a recent comment about unscrupulous bankers. Then-Vice President Joe Biden said essentially the same thing when he called predatory bankers “Shylocks” back in 2014. Should we believe them? Does it matter?

HEBRON TRIBAL INITIATIVE CHALLENGES PA LEGITIMACY – POTENTIAL REGIONAL REVERBERATIONS  

By MUDAR ZAHRAN- Secretary General of the Jordanian Opposition Coalition 

 1. Background: The Hebron-based Jaabari clan, central to the emirate initiative, remains one of the city’s most influential and numerous families. Security sources estimate the tribe maintains access to approximately 30,000 weapons, primarily assault rifles, held collectively among its members.

 2. The family has historically demonstrated a cooperative posture toward the Israeli government and the IDF. In 1967, tribal elder Mohammad al-Jaabari notably received the first Israeli military jeep to enter Hebron and subsequently hosted the Israeli Minister of Defense at his residence.

Houthi Terror Sites Targeted in Widespread IAF Strikes  

Massive overnight operation targets Iranian-backed threats after continued missile and drone attacks on Israel.

Israfan | July 7, 2025

In a powerful show of force and precision, the Israeli Air Force launched a major overnight offensive against Houthi terror infrastructure across Yemen. The operation, involving around 20 aircraft and over 50 precision-guided munitions, targeted strategic facilities in the ports of Al Hudaydah, Ras Isa, and Salif, as well as the Ras Kanatib power plant.

Trump admin prosecuting one of the few doctors who honored his Hippocratic Oath to ‘Do No Harm’ during Covid madness  

Peloni:  And while Dr. Moore is being persecuted, not a single pharmacist is being charged who withheld prescribed medical treatments such as, but not limited to, ivermectin from needy patients.  Not a single person has been charged in the attempt to manipulate research to indicate hydroxychloroquine was dangerous to patients suffering from Covid.  Not a single person is being charged following the documented effort to deceive the entire world of the obvious lab leak nature of Covid origin.

Senseless policies proscribing innocuous and efficacious medicine while weaponizing and perverting scientific research led to upside down policies where men such as Dr. Moore sit in the dock facing what would be tantamount to a life sentence, while men such as Collins and Fauci roam free, with their wealth intact and their freedom unhampered.  This should serve as a grotesque commentary on both the judicial and medical standards of America in the age of Covid.  Dr. Moore should go free, and instead of charging him with conspiracy and malfeasance, he should be placed in a position of authority where he would be able to abandon the the felonious policies which threaten him with a fate he does not deserve.  The courage and resolve of men such as Dr. Moore should be harnessed to lead the future, rather than being shackled for serving the oath of ‘Do No Harm’.

As I write, the news is replete with information about a possible ceasefire between Israel and Hamas. This ceasefire was one proposed by US Envoy Steve Witkoff, with “adjustments” made by Qatar to render it more palatable to Hamas.

If Israel Maintains a Military Presence in Gaza, Especially Along The Philadelphi Corridor, Egypt Will Likely Suspend Camp David Within the Next Six Months  

And the Script for Confrontation Is Already Being Written

Khaled Hassan, The Grand Strategy,  July 7,2025

Picture this. You’re the president of a nation on the brink. Decades of decay have hollowed out your country. The economy? A carcass picked clean. Healthcare and education? Crumbling faster than cheap plaster. For ten long years, you’ve peddled the same promise to your weary people: “Hold fast. Prosperity is just months away.” A gleaming future, you swore. A standard of living they could scarcely imagine.

Fast forward to 2025. The dream’s a nightmare.

Can tribal leaders in Hebron bring peace with Israel?  

The fact that the Sons of Iraq or the leaders of Jordan and Iraq emerged under US and British support, illustrate that these tribal structures often require outside support.

Seth J. Frantzman

A recent article at The Jerusalem Post speaks about meeting with the top Hebron sheikh who wants to pull out of Palestinian Authority. The article claims that Sheikh Wadee’ al-Jaabari is the leader of Hebron’s most influential clan. Now “and four other leading Hebron sheikhs have signed a letter pledging peace and full recognition of Israel as a Jewish state.”

A letter has even been drafted. Jaabari has reached out to Israeli officials, the report says. Eight sheikhs are “believed to lead 204,000 local residents.”

Mark Levin’s July 6 Show  

Peloni:  In his opening segment Mark explores the political and cultural aspects of the recent violent protests against the American way of life.  He begins with an interview with Adam Sohn of the Network Contagion Research Institute about influence peddling in the US by foreign enemies. Sohn explains that 50% of all foreign money going to US universities over the past 40yrs, $58 billion in total, was donated in just the last 4yrs without any knowledge of how that money was spent by the universities. He explains that Qatar and China are by far the greatest sources of these donations. Notably, as Qatar funds Hamas, they have been funding US colleges, many of which have campuses in Qatar. Sohn also shares that there are a network of recognized terrorist organizations which have manipulated their way into being US non-profit organizations. Due to the rules and regulations guiding the universities being ignored, and the simultaneous infiltration of the US non-profit organizations, these terrorist groups are promoting their radical ideology among universities as well as grade schools.
