Israel has been closely monitoring the nuclear talks between the United States and Iran, with officials expressing deep concern about the negotiations with the Islamist regime over its nuclear program, according to reports in Israeli media.

It’s a mistake to view the Iranian nuclear issue as the be-all and end-all. It is merely a symptom of the deeper illness: the existence of a radical regime that promotes terrorism across the Middle East.

Peloni:  This is a very important lawsuit.  Gary Osen explains how a Palestinian American Citizen, otherwise recognized as being very peace-oriented, is alleged to have been completely complicit in helping to fund the terror infrastructure in and under Gaza.  Osen also addresses the reality that, though there are plenty of laws on the books in the US prohibiting support of terrorism, these laws are never enforced by the DOJ.

Why is it that the murder and torture of American citizens have not been prosecuted in the US?  Might this be due to the past Qatari influence in Washington?  Might it be due to Qatari influence in Washington today?  Indeed, why is this case, which involves the murder of American citizens being brought in a civil lawsuit rather than being addressed by the DOJ?  Are they ignoring the evidence or do they find it lacking?  Is Qatari influence relevant to the silence which is seemingly screaming from the DOJ today on this issue?  Where is AG Bondi, who was so stalwart in her pride of having been a Qatari lobbyist?

Peloni:  In his opening remarks, Mark explains that Trump’s tariff policy is explicitly pro-growth as he is creating a global free market system which will re-industrialize America.  He also goes into the cause for the Great Depression as being the result of the Fed’s tight money policy which, while pursuing sound money, in turn led to a run on the banks due to a lack of available money.  Due to FDR’s anti-growth policies of creating cartels, historic redistribution of wealth, historic rise in peace-time taxes, centralized govt/industrial policies, the depression was extended and additional 7yrs.  Contrasting with these unsound policies, Mark explains that Trump’s policies are historic pro growth policies by cutting waste, pursuing deregulation, cutting taxes, and forcing foreign competitors to compete on a level playing field.

New in PJ Media:

After enduring ten years of the far-left misrule of the vapid and eternally callow Justin Trudeau, Canada has a new prime minister, but not any new ideas or any change of direction at the top: the new boss, Mark Carney, is the same as the old boss, a shallow leftist ideologue without an original thought in his entire sorry cerebellum, which is filled instead with the usual talking points of the leftist establishment that still wields power in much of the Western world.

I’m not sidestepping anything @ComicDaveSmith I’m taking your “I’m just saying” comment and applying logic, facts, law, and centuries of established frameworks that govern how war is conducted. The laws of armed conflict—international humanitarian law—are not theories. They are… https://t.co/i5KLWYRpzU

Peloni:  In this 30 min video, Wurmser explores the useful aspect of the tariff being leveraged on Israel, warning signs which the US should have (and didn’t) address in its meeting with Iran, and the strengthening threat from Turkey.  This interview preceded Saturday’s meeting between the US and Iran, just FYI.

01 min – Israeli tariffs

10 min – Iran

24 min – Turkey

Peloni:  Highly Recommended film.  Pierre Rehov’s production on the creation of the Palestinian narrative is being throttled on the web.  Please share it widely with family and friends.

The vast majority of Israelis seem finally to have understood that the goal of Palestinian organizations is not to create a state living in peace alongside Israel, but to destroy Israel. The West, wrote the columnist Melanie Phillips, needs “to take off its blinders, join up the dots and fight like Israel to survive.” Pictured: Hamas terrorists on their way into Israel from Gaza Strip, on their mission to murder Jews, on the morning of October 7, 2023.

• [A]ll Hamas needs to do to prevent this destruction is return all the hostages it should not have kidnapped in the first place. Amnesty International has served up a remarkable inversion of facts.

Peloni:  These negotiations are a grave mistake, and any ‘deal’ arising from them will be fraught with betrayal and delay which will only advantage the Iranians in outlasting Trump’s remaining less than 4yr term.   Consenting to using Witkoff rather than Rubio to conduct these proceedings was a second obviously owned error.  The outcome of these discussions will define US policy in the region, but they must not limit Israel from pursuing her own Red Lines as stated by Bibi after meeting with Trump.

The lessons from 2015 must be clear to avoid another disastrous deal. No negotiations should begin until Iran fully dismantles its nuclear program.

Prime Minister Netanyahu’s recent visit to Washington dealt with two main issues that could become points of contention in the otherwise warm relations between PM Netanyahu and President Trump—tariffs and the Iran nuclear program, the latter of which we will focus on.

Peloni:  Political violence is the antithesis of freedom of speech and it is the key by which free nations fall.  It will be interesting to see what basis of threat underlines this latest threat, but as the well know two previous attempts on then candidate Former President Trump demonstrates, there should be strong penalties applied for any and all crimes which have actually been committed.

Today, #FBI Atlanta arrested 25 year old, Aliakbar Mohammed Amin of Lilburn, GA for threatening communications against @DNIGabbard, @Potus, & @WhiteHouse. Bottom line, the FBI does not tolerate threats and will hold offenders fully accountable. pic.twitter.com/la5doFNMbU

The details that have been revealed thus far are extremely sparse. Fox 5 Atlanta reported Friday that the FBI had revealed that “a Georgia man” had been arrested for making threats against Donald Trump and Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard. That’s almost all we know at this point, but there is one other salient detail that raises a number of other questions about this case.

“Mahmoud Khalil hates the United States and what we stand for”

by Daniel Greenfield | April 12, 2025

Mahmoud Khalil, the former Columbia U student, was a leading figure in the campus riot movement that celebrated the Hamas attacks of Oct 7, endorsed terrorism, called for ‘Death to America’ and was “fighting for the total eradication of Western civilization.”

Peloni:  In a year and a half, not a single Gazan has come to report details surrounding the whereabouts of a single hostage.  NOT ONE.  So while Katz’ commentary to the Gazans about the distinctions which separate them from the Hamas leadership is useful to inform the entire world of these facts, it must be understood by all reasonable men that Gazans are Hamas.  They have been well trained for the effect of rejoicing in the savagery of October 7 and resistant to the most generous of offers to produce just one equivalent of the Righteous Gentiles of WWII…and yet we here only crickets in response.
