Peloni:  Is Trump really waiting for the right answer?  After a year of negotiating, it might be understood that no such “right answer” would be forthcoming from an institutionalized mentality founded on creating enough chaos so as to draw the Shiite boogeyman Mahdi from his hiding hole.  Notably, Trump is an intelligent man, yet even someone with an IQ greater than could be counted on one hand should be able to grasp the already clearly limited options at hand.  So, the claim that he is waiting for the right answer is not terribly credible.  While the US are caught maintaining the blockade, they are simultaneously harnessing the benefit of the limited oil forthcoming from the Persian Gulf.  Yet, due to Trump having linked a fully porous ceasefire in Lebanon to ceasefire in Iran simply to appease the Iranian terrorists, the freedom of action by the IDF is being infringed to react rather than prevent attacks emanating from Hezbollah and its menacing FPV drones.  This stipulation, which was forced on Israel, should be lifted, and Israel should be allowed to return to the freedom of action granted to it under the terms of the previous ceasefire.

U.S. President Donald Trump said that Washington is willing to wait a little longer to get an acceptable answer from Iran, while warning that the U.S. is “ready to go” with a resumption of military operations.

Peloni: In the wake of the recent Hamas funded flotilla which was intercepted by Israeli forces, the govt and world leaders have taken to condemning the actions of Min. Ben Gvir for his activist like attempt to chastise the pro-Hamas beligerants while being processed in Israel.

It is truly amazing how little it takes for an Israeli to presumably step out of line before being universally condemned as if he had actually executed the terror sponsoring activists which sailed with impunity on a Hamas financed flotilla to invade his country.  Many are arguing that this event has created an international incident, but the reality is if such an event took place in any other nation, this footage wouldn’t be newsworthy or even noteworthy.  Hence, ignoring the international angst which came from what was honestly was far less of a chastising than these melancholy marauders deserved, we should note the real importance of this event, which I would argue was far more political in nature than geopolitical.

Peloni:  It seems reasonable to suspect that if Maureen Galindo were pledging to place Black, Hispanic, Chinese or Indian Americans in concentration camps with additional aims of castrating them while describing them as pedophiles, we wouldn’t be hearing the politically anemic responses being raised against her.

This may have escaped your attention because your anti-Israel biased media certainly did not cover the story with any degree of accuracy.

This week, a Hezbollah terrorist opened fire on Israeli forces from inside a church in the southern Lebanese village of Qouza.

Today, America First Legal (AFL) and the U.S. Department of State settled Jackson et al. v. Trump et al., a case where AFL represented U.S. Congressman Ronny Jackson of Texas, and co-plaintiffs Stuart and Robbi (now deceased) Force, the parents of murdered American soldier Taylor Force, and Sarri Singer, a survivor of one of the largest terrorist bus bombings in Israeli history.

Peloni:  Ed Gallrein raised somewhere around $3 million for his campaign, with an additional $32-$35 million from superpacs.  Yet, the roughly $7 million which came from Jewish groups are all that is noted by either the press or Gallrein’s opponent Massie as the basis of his fall from power.  The reality is that if the world didn’t have the collection of antisemitic libels which mask the reality of the woes of the world as being due to Jews, perhaps some of the long ignored problems might have been solved over the centuries in which these libels have instead been used to distract and focus the limited attention of antisemitic populations.

Peloni: As noted previously, Tucker Carlson’s attacks on Israel are neither substantive nor rational.  They are based on manipulated facts, purjored testimonies, and perverse conclusions.  His attempts in doing so lay bare the great hypocrisy in his narratives, all of which are aimed at either defeating the US-Israeli alliance or splitting the MAGA movement in the US.  Carlson’s latest assault on Israel, calling for the legitimate right of Arabs in the PA to vote in Israeli elections is neither sincere nor material.  He should not have been granted the platform on Israeli Channel 12, nor on any other legitimate media platform either.  Doing so only promotes the disinformation projected as honest debate, as was clearly the case in the recent interview indicated below.

J Street’s opposition to the buffer zone stems from an abstract ideological discomfort. The debate should center instead on what can be done so that Israeli families can live without thousands of rockets aimed at their homes from a few miles away.

For decades, critics of Israel’s security policy have insisted that buffer zones “don’t work” and that only negotiations can stop terrorism. J Street’s recent campaign against a possible long-term Israeli security presence in southern Lebanon repeats the same argument yet again.

Peloni:  FDD’s Ryan Brobst and Jonathan Schanzer discuss the development and import of the use of drones in modern warfare.  They also address the techniques which can be used to counter the drones and the threat posed for Israel in Lebanon.

As the ‘cease fire’ in Lebanon continues seemingly without end, the casualty list emanating from attacks by these FPV drones is having growing nearly daily.

Peloni:  Trump uses Gulf  ‘allies’ as both intermediaries presumably acting as peace negotiators and now as accepts their advise on canceling his long threatened return to war following Tehran’s obfuscation.  This places Trump’s Sunni allies in a position by which to both mislead Trump and to undermine American objectives in the same moment, and of course, this is exactly what has take form over and over again as Trump has been going thru a number of negotiation bouts over the past more than a year now.  It is time to finish the job, and at the same time, to finish any reliance or credibility being offered to the Sunni nations, all of whom simply want to preserve Iran as the regional opposition to the dominance of both America and Israel in the region.

Mahmoud Abbas has been preparing the ground for his successor now that he has turned 90. He naturally favors his son — what doting father wouldn’t? — Yasser Abbas. Yasser is a multi-millionaire, who made his millions fair and square, by being awarded a monopoly on the sale of tobacco in the territory that the Palestinian Authority controls, and by owning a hugely successful contracting business in the same area. More about Yasser Abbas’ new responsibility can be found here: “Palestinian Leader’s Son Wins Role in Abbas’ Party, Official Says,” Algemeiner, May 17, 2026:

Today I continue my theme of Israel’s growing strength. And what better way to begin than with Yom Yerushalayim, which occurred this past Friday.

We celebrate on the anniversary of the day that Jerusalem was reunited with great bravery during the Six Day War of 1967: the third day of the war, which was June 7th. We celebrate the Hebrew date, 28 Iyar.
Indeed we were tough and resolute (amazing, actually) as we fought that war. And when we gained control of the Old City in eastern Jerusalem, where the Kotel (the Western Wall) and the Temple Mount are situated, we were then filled with joy and great gratitude. For 19 years Jews had been forbidden access to this area by Jordan.

Peloni:  At some point, the reality that Iran will not submit to Trump’s terms will set in.  Til it does, Iran will continue tapping Trump along with the help of its allies in Qatar, Iran, Turkey and Pakistan.

The IRGC has submitted yet another “final proposal” to the U.S., but it’s the same recycled draft demanding a full American withdrawal from the Middle East, sanctions lifted, frozen assets released, reparations paid, and the Hormuz blockade ended.

Peloni:  As calls to ‘Free Gaza’ from around the world led to the creation of a 20 Point Plan, later officially introduced into UN Security Council Resolution 2803, the result has been anything but freedom in Gaza as its inhabitants have been re-interred under the same warlords which were elected in Gaza over twenty years ago.  The effect of all of this has in fact left the people of Gaza to be trafficked, maimed, murdered, raped and, in all ways acknowledgeable by the norms of the modern world, abused as the cage in which they were institutionalized in a warped society with the single goal of weaponizing the public as a tool by which to attack Israel and the Jews.  Statements made by Pres. Trump shortly after returning to office regarding the need to relocate the population of Gaza presaged a path towards real freedom for the people of Gaza, where they would not endlessly be tokenized as the antisemitic leverage which has become their fate in Gaza.  And yet, while all the addle minded pro-Hamas provocateurs continue to scream for the rights of those in Gaza, their silence amid the re-encarceration of the Gazans under Hamas demonstrates the reality that only Israel has an interest in setting the Gazans free from their forced enslavement where they are subjected to a psychopathic motivation to simply kill Jews.  This weaponization of the Gazan people, not their freedom, is what has been called for by those shouting ‘Free Gaza’, but also this is what has been effected by the famed and immensely flawed 20 Point Plan which has done anything but set Gaza free.

For years, European officials viewed Turkey’s growing defense industry as an important asset. Turkish drones proved effective in conflicts from Libya to Nagorno-Karabakh and Ukraine. Ankara marketed itself as a NATO ally capable of covering gaps in Europe’s deteriorating defense-industrial base. Now, as the European Union (EU) scrambles to rearm in the wake of the Russia-Ukraine war and growing uncertainty about long-term American commitments to Europe, Turkey is once again presenting itself as an irreplaceable security partner.
