The need for a homeland where Jews could protect themselves was another factor in establishing the Jewish state. After personally experiencing antisemitism, Theodore Herzl, the founder of modern political Zionism, wrote in his diary in June 1895 that he “recognized the emptiness and futility of efforts to ‘combat antisemitism’” in Europe. “Declamations made in writing or in closed circles do no good whatever; they even have a comical effect.” At one point he thought the press could be mobilized to fight antisemitism, but soon realized this idea to be a “feeble, foolish gesture. Antisemitism has grown and continues to grow—and so do I.” The only solution was for the Jews in the Diaspora to found a Jewish state.

Peloni:  Please watch and share this video.  The rise of antisemitism, and widespread violence against Jews, as well as the ever increasing acceptance of that violence, must be confronted by law enforcement and official scrutiny everywhere it is found.  Of course, the complete opposite has been what took place during the Biden administration.  Trump, however, has already take important steps on this front to reverse this trend, but it is important that the public endorsements of Jew Hatred by social media influencers, among whom Kanye West should be considered to be one of the most influential, should be added to the efforts of Trump’s war on antisemitism.   As Cohen explains, this is not related to freedom of speech, rather, it is , but a public safety threat, and one which needs to be both aggressively pursued, as well as being seen to be aggressively pursued by law enforcement with support from the president’s bully pulpit.

Peloni:  Michael’s exhastive efforts continue to be very impressive, even after 15yrs of doing so.  The assorted details and depth of information which he shares is both amazing and inspiring.  His news letter should replace Haaretz as Israel’s former position of being mandatorily subscribed by all Israeli govt agencies and officials.

In the 9th Feb 25 edition of Israel’s good news, the highlights include:

• Released hostages are role-models for Israeli resilience.

• $1 billion profit in 2024 for Israeli cybersecurity Checkpoint.
• Israeli jazz band leader won a Grammy award.
• Read details of a 1,900-year-old Jewish court case in the Land of Israel.

Peloni:  he irony is that nearly the entire Western world advocated the preservation of Hamas whose entire existence is predicated upon the annihilation of the Jewish entity in the Middle East.  Relocation is not only moral and doable, it is necessary and vital for regional stability.  The weaponization of the Pals against Israel must finally be brought to an end, which is based upon historical honesty and which respects the viability of security of the Jewish State.  The choice of many to presume otherwise is steeped in self interest and Jew Hatred, and likely not in that order.

After President Trump proposed resettling the Arab Muslim settlers currently living in Gaza, there was an outbreak of furious objections from politicians, activists and media outlets.

Peloni:  Notably, this investigation is specifically intended to address the role played by Hamas, UNRWA, and any US individuals and entities.  Unfortunately, AG Bondi’s role in manipulating the Trevon Martin case and her noted lobbyist ties to Qatar raise questions regarding the independence of this investigation, which should be conducted by some party who is completely free of any connection to Qatar given their overt and undeniable ties to Hamas, specifically, and to Jihadi terror in general.

Peloni:  This is how color revolutions are funded and conducted.  The deployment of the US effort against Bibi’s govt portrayed the nation as divided, unstable, and vulnerable, and in fact, this was both the reality created, as well as a motivating force behind Hamas’ October 7 assault.  For the US to have mounted such an effort in Israel must not be forgotten.  Israel needs to have its own form of Foreign Agent Registration legislation, and it should outlaw foreign funded NGOs.  See original tweet and translation below video.

Peloni:  I am reminded of the words of Martin Sherman: “Either there will be Jews in the Negev or Arabs in Gaza, but there cannot be both.”  The Witkof Surrender Deal will not be the end of this war.

Peloni:  It should be recalled that the May War of 2021, in which an assault by Arab mobs inside Israel was coordinated with Hamas rocket attacks, was also initiated in connection to Al Aqsa following Ramadan.  Of course, it was Jordan’s Abdullah, Israel’s supposed peace partner, whose call for violence against Israel triggered that war.  Abdullah’s 2021 claims that the Jews were desecrating Al Aqsa was not a unique event as routinely makes such charges and blood libels to trigger violence against Israel, but his claims are a particularly common charge made by Abdullah around the Ramadan period.

Peloni: Highly recommended audio interview

“Modern Leftism is nothing more than a repackaged neo-Paganism that believes in power,”

by Daniel Greenfield | Feb 9, 2025

Last week, I joined the Shoulder to Shoulder podcast with Doug Reed and Pesach Wolicki to discuss the ideas and beliefs at the heart of the Left.

“Although the Progressive Left movement appears fairly new, in truth, he demonstrates that the principles that animate this movement have been around for millennia. Modern Leftism is nothing more than a repackaged neo-Paganism that believes in power, and is bent on erasing God and tradition.”

Peloni:  As a follow-up to our publication of excerpts from Joseph Shellim’s “Philistine-To-Palestine”, we are happy to be able to present a series of excerpts from his informative “BEN HUR II – EXILE” [aka “HOLY-WAR: ROME AND THE JEWS“.  Below is the third installment.  Link at bottom for previous installment

A COVENANTAL RITUAL

In a troubled night in Megiddo there is urgency in the town. With the news of Rome’s march to Jerusalem, the people are hastening into the hills and the town is being deserted. Hillel and Alexis are alone in a small room in the teacher’s house; there is a large ornamental chair, a water basin, a wine flask and a leather pouch set on a table. Hillel now directs Alexis to be seated in the large ornamental chair in urgency. He hastily serves Alexis a full cup of strong wine, gesturing he finish the drink. Hillel addresses Alexis amidst a din of wailing in the background.

Peloni:  The US should have no military presence in Lebanon, and should be supporting Israel’s enforcement of the terms of the deal, not in restraining those effort or placing US or international forces in the breach on the border.

Unspeakably terrible idea, if true. From the Lebanese press today, following Ortagus’ visit: “Informed sources say the US side is considering submitting a proposal for the deployment of reinforced international forces under US leadership in the locations that Israel says it wants… pic.twitter.com/S8BB6UOByI

This article is obviously a follow-up to the press conference held by President Trump and Prime Minister Netanyahu on Tuesday, 4 January 2025, in which Trump made a series of remarkable statements about the situation in Gaza and the role he envisions in it for the United States.

Peloni:  Open the gates, and watch the Gazans Self Deport.  Their state of destruction and despair is of their own making and involved their own support for and choice of fully embracing terrorism as their national pastime and code of honor.  Israel must take control of Gaza, crush Hamas, and fascilitate the movement of Gazans elsewhere, and it will take very little encouragement or support to see the vast majority of Gazans leaving under their own steam.

Peloni:  This would be the greatest policy failure of the Trump administration if the Mullahs are left in power, the consequences of which would be targeting Israel, the US, and the entire Western World.
