Peloni:  If Israel is going to conquer Gaza, they should keep it, settle it, develop it, and secure it.

Peloni:  Erin Molan is priceless, as she once again provides moral clarity in a world which honors and protects the butchers of Hamas in the name of civilization.

Carlson’s campaign on behalf of Barbarian Hamas while manipulating the basis on which Israel’s wars are fought.  Indeed, while Hamas’ targets are the entire population of Israel, Israel’s target remains the power structure and elements of Hamas itself, even as untold thousands of Gazan not so innocent people participated in the slaughter of October 7.

U.S. President Donald Trump shocked the world with his suggestion that the United States take over not just the rebuilding of Gaza, but its administration.

“I don’t want to be cute. I don’t want to be a wise guy, but – the Riviera of the Middle East. This could be so magnificent,” Trump said during a press conference with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu following their meeting.

The mind boggles when we consider the proposals being advanced by President Trump in his meetings with Prime Minister Netanyahu and announced at a subsequent press conference late Tuesday.

Peloni:  Very interesting update with Prof. Zisser.

Did ya miss me? On today’s @FDD Morning Brief, I’m speaking w/ Prof. Eyal Zisser of @TelAvivUni, who’s mastered the ins & outs of the #MidEast. Looking forward to chatting about #Israel-Hamas ceasefire, potential peace between Israel & Saudi Arabia & more. https://t.co/4q32TT16bH

‘An army of galloping horses’: Eyal Zamir, who will succeed Lt. Gen. Herzi Halevi, will be required not only to strive for decisive victory on all fronts but also to put the IDF back on its proper footing and enable it to be a determined and victorious army, something it knows how to be | Commentary

Peloni:  To believe that economic hardship could deter the Mullahs has no basis in reality.  There is but one way to pacify Iran, and that is to eliminate the long standing totalitarian, anti-Western regime in Tehran.  The attempt to use economics to control them will only lead to a waste of time, and with Trump having only four years left, this may be time which can ill afford to be wasted.  Regime change coincident with seizing the Iranian nuclear program from Iran is the only feasible way forward in Iran.

An unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) targeted the Khor Mor gas field in northern Iraq’s autonomous Kurdistan Region on February 2, 2025. It is the latest kamikaze drone attack on the gas field run by Dana Gas. There have been nine attacks in four years on the same site, according to Iraqi media reports.

President Trump’s proposal that the Arab Muslim colonist population occupying parts of Gaza be resettled touched off outrage, complaints about ‘ethnic cleansing’ and ‘genocide’.

Peloni:  Reality just changed with this press conference, and this more than anything else is the result of the Trump-Bibi summit.  Trump’s proposal, in so much as he has detailed it, is quite revolutionary, to say the least.  It is as sharp of a break with the old TSS paradigm as could be suggested, and perhaps this is one of the more definite aspects of what he has proposed.  Perhaps too, it is intended to be a point of leverage to demonstrate to the moderate Sunnis nations that their endeavors to hold fast to the past is out of step with reality.  But the real details of the proposal remain uncertain at this point, as the Trump-Bibi presser raised as many questions, if not more, than were answered during the question and answer session.  Of course, I remain opposed to the US putting troops on the ground in Israel in any capacity, just as I am opposed to the US, rather than Israel, becoming the long term guarantor of Israel’s security interest in Gaza, or that the US rather than Israel should “own” Gaza.  Still, as Daniel Greenfield suggests, it might be well advised to wait for more specific policy details before offering more specific responses.  What is clear is that Trump continues to be unflinching in his demand to remove the Pals from Gaza.  This at a minimum should be seen to be a definite policy position, and is one which I certainly do support.

New in PJ Media:

We are living at a truly momentous time in history. Donald Trump illustrated that yet again on Tuesday evening during his press conference with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. “You have to learn from history,” Trump declared and proceeded to upend the political order that has prevailed in the Middle East for decades. It is a multiply failed order and new approaches are very, very long overdue, but no one has dared to question it and suggest new solutions. Until now.

Breaking: *The New Deal of the Century* – Who is behind the ‘Trump Plan’ for the relocation of Gazans abroad?

Let’s put it this way: Not Trump. Nor any other American factor. Not only that – it was promoted, and even began to be implemented under the Biden administration. Yes. But first – to the essence: *The New Deal of the Century*, as it can be called, stands on five legs:

In the 1921 hit song, The Sheikh of Araby, there is one line that goes as follows, “…While you’re asleep, into your tent I’ll creep.”

Of course, the song was referring to the sheikh who romantically pursued the headstrong British heroine who then fell in love with him only to find that he was, in reality, not an Arab at all but the son of a British father and Spanish mother.

Peloni:  Here is a key point to consider.  The Trump doctrine is predicated on having strong allies who are not just capable of enforcing American interests around the world, but having the public prestige and recognition of doing so as well.  This, more than any other aspect of the Surrender Deal forced on Israel, is why I believe that this war is not at an end.  Indeed, Israel has its own reasons for eliminating the threat emanating from a Hamas controlled Hamastan, but I would argue that Trump’s need of having, not just a strong Israel, but a regionally dominating Israel serves to perfectly align both US and Israeli interests on this point.   Israel needs to return to Gaza, destroying Hamas utterly, and failing to do so will not only result in an obvious and perceived Israeli defeat, but an American defeat as well.  A strong Israel makes America stronger, and no one is more aware of this fact than Pres. Trump who envisioned the Trump doctrine in the first place.

Israeli political commentator Daniel Mendel certainly thinks that the war in Gaza has ended in a historic defeat for Israel. But the war is not yet over. Hamas is crowing that it is still standing, but will it still be standing when the hostage-for-criminals deal is over, and the Israelis realize, to their horror, just how many of those “98 hostages” were murdered by Hamas? Will the IDF not again gird its collective loins and reenter the Gazan cities it has pulled out of, in order to destroy whatever weapons Hamas may have managed to keep from being seized by the IDF, and to kill what remains of its combatants, including the estimated 15,000 new recruits — young and inexperienced in war — that Hamas now claims to have attracted? Mendel thinks the deal Israel has made is a “tragic and historic mistake.” He is convinced that the release of so many terrorist murderers will cause tremendous numbers of Israeli casualties in the future. He may be right. More on Mendel’s rage and despair at this lopsided exchange can be found here: “Israel’s Hostage Deal Is a Tragic and Historic Mistake,” by Daniel Mendel, Algemeiner, January 29, 2025:
