A new study concludes that there is no evidence to support the charges of “apartheid” and “genocide” that are continuously made against the Jewish state: “Israel not conducting genocide, not guilty of apartheid, new academic study shows,” by Alex Carson, Jerusalem Post, September 28, 2026:

Resolving Gaza – The only way forward  

PELONI:  There can be no peace so long as the Arab cleft remains in Judea & Samaria because their stated purpose for being there is to wreak havoc on the Jews and to conquer the nation of Israel.  Support for foreign whims and domestic lunacy are all that maintains this threat in place, and in doing so, the threat from these would be emulators of October 7 is growing rather than reducing with time.

Any policy proposal for Gaza that does not entail large-scale population removal is merely a variant of previously tried and failed formulas of autonomy and/or Oslo.

Ever since Israel’s injudicious abandonment in 2005 of Gaza to Palestinian-Arab control, the Gaza Strip has stubbornly defied resolution. Ever since the imbecilic Oslo Accords in 1993, the dominant paradigm, forged by the dictates of political correctness, has been that, sooner or later, the political process must culminate in some form of self-rule of the coastal enclave by some Palestinian-Arab entity.

An Iraqi gives an impassioned defense of…Benjamin Netanyahu  

 

Not only that, he castigates Arab nations for failing to stand up for their own people and casts shade on the whole Palestinian narrative.

Raith Al-Tamimi, an Iraqi living in the UK, is one of those rare people willing to state the obvious truth: While the Arab world demands that the rest of the world defend it, Benjamin Netanyahu defends his country and, most especially, his country’s women.

Heroes and Terrorists: The Courage to Fight Islamist Terrorism  

PELONI:  To Captain Smit Machchhar and all who acted to save the passengers and crew of Flight FZ1073, it said that to save a single life is to save the world, and thru your spontaneous courage and combined heroics, you saved the lives of 173 people on board that flight, as well as those who would have perished on the ground in any target which the terrorist might have chosen to strike as well.  But more than this, you saved the world from facing a calamity so terrible that it would have certainly changed the world in both great and small, but terrible, ways.  Beyond this, you provided a model of action and resolve from which the world might likewise learn to act in its own protection with a resolve to both preserve and to thrive thru these difficult years  and to face the need to fight Islamic terrorism as if it were the death-knell for all who fail to do so, which of course it is.

As more information comes out about the attempted hijacking and crashing of Flydubai flight FZ1073, we have to have a real conversation about heroes and terrorists. It was awe-inspiring heroism and courage that were displayed during the attempt to hijack flight FZ1073 traveling from Dubai to Tel Aviv, Israel. We should celebrate the courage of those who fought to save that plane and demand that leaders of nations and Muslim communities show the courage to condemn and confront Islamist terrorism and the radicalization that encourages it.

Tomorrow’s Headlines – Israeli Apartheid, Arab Discrimination, and Why It’s a Lie  

PELONI: Judicial election interference should be reserved to support the stability and welfare of the nation rather than to support the stability and welfare of those who support terror.  Until Judicial Reform is achieved in Israel, the opposite of this simple challenge will be all that might be afforded from a judiciary which is preoccupied with maintaining the status quo rather than enforcing actual laws and legal standards.  I said this 5 years ago, if the current govt will not secure Judicial Reform, the support for doing so will only grow ever stronger as the need for it is both self evident and material damage to the nation and the people are all  that will be maintained without it.  This was true then, and it remains true to this today.

Israel is one hearing away from doing something it has never done. On Thursday the Supreme Court unanimously told Balad party chairman Sami Abu Shehadeh that a majority of the nine justices would uphold his disqualification from the October 27 election, and urged him to withdraw by Friday. The fact that the Supreme Court justices issued a unanimous decision is remarkable in a country that rarely sees eye to eye on anything. It is made all the more remarkable that the unanimous decision included the Israeli Arab justice as well, whose very presence on the court belies accusations of apartheid and discrimination.

As US ends operations in Iraq, Baghdad celebrates its withdrawal and renewed sovereignty – analysis  

PELONI:  While looking on at Iraq celebrating the final departure of the Americans as a mark of a return of their own soverignty, we must appreciate the reality in which Iraq is basking in its newly status as being a handover of sovereignty over Iraq from America to Iran, rather than from America to Iraq.  Indeed, as America was all that stood between Iran and its unfettered control of Iraq, America leaving Iraq would seem to suggest that the influence of Iran’s paramilitary groups will make Iran dance to Iran’s tune.  More than this, given the weakened state of Iran at the moment, this move by the US will strengthen Iran’s regional influence, even as the Iraqis celebrate what is coming.  In this moment, recall the great enmity which exists between the Iraqi Kurds and the Iranian IRGC, noted by the fact of a thousand missiles which have struck the Kurdish areas over the past six months as the Kurds made no move against Iran.  So, should we anticipate the rise of a Kurdish-Iranian contest in the coming weeks, or simply a further slaugher of the Kurds as they are now to fend for themselves in a rising tide of Iranian influence in an Iraq devoid of American forces to provide a decent soource of detterence against Iran’s IRGC.

Baghdad asked the US to return. Now, in a kind of “no good deed goes unpunished” manner, Iraq is celebrating the US leaving after asking the US for help.

American forces that were part of the US-led Coalition against ISIS (Islamic State) ended their role in Iraq on Tuesday, meeting a deadline that had been in the works for a year.

The Iraqi government has appeared to celebrate this departure, declaring it a day of “sovereignty,” with some in Baghdad claiming this is a kind of new “independence” for Iraq. Many have portrayed the United States as leaving after 23 years in Iraq, from the 2003 invasion by a US-led coalition including British, Australian, and Polish troops. The fact is that the US returned to Iraq in 2014 after having already left once in 2011. It was Baghdad that asked the US to return.

Save the midterms and stop communism  

PELONI:  It is an interesting phenomenon to hear claims that America is about to elect its own demise by willfully returning to the tragedy from which its fat has recently been saved from the fire in the last election.  In a fair fight, there would be no contest, and yet, as managed expectations are being managed in the current election polls, the foreboding concern of another rigged election weighs ever present as the chief accomplishment set before Trump’s 2024 election remains yet to be obtained – the reestablishment of election integrity & accountability in America, and the simultaneous return of governance by the will of the people rather than by the will of those who control the election machines and the vote counting.  Are we truly about to see a return of what followed the 2018 election?  America, vote as if you very existence is at stake…because it is.

The only way to maintain constitutional liberty is for every conservative to vote against the Democrats, whom the DSA now owns lock, stock, and barrel.

The midterms will come down to turnout: Republicans versus communists. We can call Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) a minority organization led by loud agitators, but their ignorant followers are enthusiastic about bringing communism to the United States of America. Many DSA candidates happily admit this in interviews and at rallies.

From Entebbe to Dubai: The Unbroken Line of Aerial Terror and Global Antisemitism  

PELONI:  The rise of Jew Hatred around the world is having a retrograding effect upon the norms which the world has come to be accept as routine over the past decades.  So, as we are returning to the eras in which our enemies have risen to destroy us in every age, we will nonetheless demonstrate our resolve to frustrate their efforts to do so.  And even in doing so, it would seem that an element of providence has come to support us in our efforts, as the Fly Dubai Flight FZ1073 should have been a very serious victory for our enemies, and is instead, due to the coincident efforts of an Indian captain, a insightful passenger, and an extra set of pilots, a victory which we may very much claim as our own.  Miracles indeed!

The terrifying mid-air assault aboard Fly Dubai Flight FZ1073 from Dubai to Tel Aviv on September 30, 2026, serves as a chilling reminder that for Jewish travelers, the threat of annihilation remains an ever-present reality. 

An attempted hijacking and terror attack took place aboard Fly Dubai Flight FZ1073, a commercial passenger airliner flying from Dubai to Tel Aviv carrying approximately 150 to 180 passengers, a majority of whom are Israeli citizens. The incident ended safely with an emergency landing at Tabuk Airport in northeastern Saudi Arabia after the attacker was successfully subdued mid-air. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]  When an Omani co-pilot stabbed the aircraft’s captain and sent the Boeing 737 MAX into a catastrophic 14,000-foot plunge, it was only the swift heroism of Israeli passengers and off-duty crew members rushing the cockpit that prevented a 9/11-style mass tragedy.

UN Human Rights Council, European Governments Launch Economic Warfare Against Israel  

PELONI:  Why is Trump allowing this economic war against Israel to move forward unopposed with barely even a comment beyond his statement suggesting he would be looking into what is causing it.   It has been nearly a month now since Britain announced the beginning salvo in this unwarranted and illegal economic war against Israel, and Trump’s failure to intervene calls to mind the legal motto of silence indicating consent, as he himself intercede in this illicit war being waged against Israel by the UK and its allies.  America has a role to play in leading the world, as both the worlds’ military and economic superpower, but instead has remained silent, even as US companies have been exposed among the economic casualties of this war waged against Israel…

Netanyahu reveals what HEROIC passenger told him  

PELONI:  What goes unspoken in this interview is the horrifying implications which would have faced PM Netanyahu and gripped the entire nation as well as the world if the terrorist had successfully seized control of the Fly Dubai plane and had aimed it at either an Israeli or a Saudi target.  G_d bless those who saved us all from such possibilities as the age of miracles continues.

The CRAZY Unnoticed Details in the Plane Hijacking + EXCLUSIVE FOOTAGE  

PELONI:  I think that even amid the cruel declaration personified by the return of terror to the airways, the world will likely continue to ignore the challenges which they have been pushing at Israel’s door as if the Jewish state was some form of petulant child, incapable of grasping the greater picture in which our survival and existence is not dependent upon their guidance or consent.  Indeed, the actual child in the room remains those fools living at some distance as they act to fan the flames of infamy and insanity as has been demonstrated so well from many govts in the EU, particularly that emanating of Perfidious Albans, in condemning Jews for daring to live on Jewish land in the Jewish state.  The complicity of these malefactors in backing the destruction of their own people should be evidence enough to support ignoring their temperamental fantasies weaponized to affect an end to the Jewish nation and the Jewish people, for whom they have nothing but crocodile tears and little else.  Like the warriors who spontaneously acted without qualification or calculation in storming the cockpit of FZ10173, Israel will see to the sealing of its own fate, and as the falling nations of what was once the West act to delegitimize and sanction Israel with double standards and fake news, Israel should respond in kind by ending arms sales and key intelligence to these nations, something which has been taken for granted from Israel for far too long.

The Quran does not claim to be an ancient historical document; it claims to be the eternal, final, and perfect word of God for all of humanity until the end of time. Presentism is the philosophical idea that we should not judge historical figures or ancient societies by modern moral standards. The progressive left  use this tool to contextualize  primitive  cultures  pointing  out a massive logical flaw when trying to apply it to orthodox Islam:

The October Seventh Paradigm Shift: Why Western Interfaith Dialogue Failed to Confront Islamist Radicalism  

PELONI:  Political correctness when applied to any model only acts to betray both reality and any related goals or objectives.  As the effort to ignore the disparity between political Islam is applied amid Western interfaith dialogue, it only serves to support the Jihadist goals on which Islamism is based.  A fair and honest dialogue can be the only basis on which the West might approach the East, and in failing to do so, they are simply opening themselves to a future reality which will see the liberties and freedoms of the West being lost to successive generations.

The podcast hosted by Dexter Van Zile for Focus on Western Islamism features scholar Tim Orr. In this discussion, Orr outlines how the events of October 7, 2023, completely dismantled the conventional assumptions surrounding Western interfaith dialogue. The broad systemic failure to confront radical ideology stems from structural blind spots, historical concessions, and institutional dynamics within religious and political spaces.
