Peloni: Avivi describes the Hostage Deal as providing a positive segway towards regional development and benefits for both Israel and the US. He also reaffirms that he does not foresee Israel abandoning its goals in this war, and that Israel needs to work with the US to develop a new reality within the Middle East, as well as globally.
Peloni: Excellent article by Katsman describing the corruption and moral failing of the West, and the hope for the greater moral clarity as the Trump administration is about to take over.

The lone man of principle faces down a menace. The stakes are high; the odds of success are not. Yet, bolstered by that principle, he defeats the menace.
That motif runs through our culture, our history, and our mythology, and especially our cinema. Americans in particular so strongly identify with versions of these morality tales that we invented an entire genre — the Western.
Peloni: The first half of this conversation provides granular detail of how the deal will play, but the second half discusses the likelihood that the deal will not move beyond Phase 1, and the likely consequences of the deal.

Image: Nazi pseudoscience about Semitic identity. Fair use.
About a century before the current crop of deceitful neologisms invaded and polluted our minds—e.g. homophobia, islamophobia, transphobia, etc.—”anti-Semitism” preceded them. Like the others, it is illogical and untruthful. For there to be such a thing as anti-Semitism, there first must be a thing called Semitism, when there is not now and never was.
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 second installment. Link at bottom for previous installment
HOLY WAR – ROME’S MARCH OF MIGHT
As the dawn breaks, Mighty Rome’s war processions have burst forth like a gigantic caterpillar heaving through the cobbled stone grounds of the ancient towns of Judea. The Hebrew scribe Josephus is now embedded in Rome’s march of might, to account history’s greatest super power marching to the calamitous destination of the famed holy city of Jerusalem.

Oy vey! The glass is not half empty—it’s completely empty!
Oy gevalt! The sky really is falling!
That’s what our purportedly most astute and seasoned political commentators would have you believe about the ceasefire agreement that was reached just a day or so ago between Hamas and Israel.

Latest Developments
Peloni: The next few months are critical for Trump on many areas of import. Hopefully Trump will demonstrate that the huge cost of forcing Israel to accept this surrender deal will be worth the undisclosed potential benefits which may stand in the not too distant future.
Trump’s desire to seal a pre-inauguration deal forced Israel’s acquiescence.

There is widespread and justifiable disappointment, unto anger, about the just announced hostage deal. Yes, thankfully, hostages are going to be released. But the price being paid is steep.
Peloni: Trump must take back control securing the freedom of the seas, in such a way that it is seen that this is taking place on his terms and not those of the Houthis. Failing to do so will only lead to the grasp of US impotence growing under the return of Trump to the White House rather than the opposite.
The message from the Houthis is that they decide the time and place of attacks. The message they think will resonate is that they got away with this. Time will tell if this is the case.

Peloni: Turkey stands as a looming threat to regional stability, as it leads the radical Sunni axis in opposition to both the Iranian radical Shiite axis, as well as to Israel and the moderate Sunni states.

Turkey is a dangerous Islamic supremacist state under its President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, who has expansionary goals of a revived Ottoman Empire with himself as caliph. And he’s getting closer.
The enemy within is already trying to burrow inside.

“The time may be soon to go back home,” Imam Husham Al-Husainy told CBS News. The year was 2003 and Al-Husainy, along with the other Iraqi Shiite ‘refugees’ filling Dearborn’s Muslim community, had gotten their fondest wish when the United States removed Saddam Hussein.
Peloni: Mike Benz continues to reveal significant aspects of the Bureaucratic Leviathan in Washington, but I have to admit that among the many report, scandals and revelations made by Benz, this piece exposes a particularly troubling aspect of the weaponization of modern society to support the nefarious goals of the intelligence community. After all, medicine is meant to treat the ill, to cure the injured, and bring comfort to those in great need of it, so enveloping and manipulating the trust and inspirations of the medical field into a whole of society perversion towards other objectives, stands as an uniquely despicable project, and a complete betrayal of the moral compass upon which medical interventions are based.
In this segment, I go over CIA history and its merger with USAID in the 1960s. Then I go over scandals where the CIA got busted running fake vaccine clinics, the CIA’s strange role in Covid-19, and the role of vaccines as instruments of statecraft. https://t.co/a4E6XKEKLh

Ugandan judge, Julia Sebutinde, has strongly defended Israel against accusations of genocide in Gaza at the International Court of Justice (ICJ), and is now set to assume the presidency of the institution after the former head has stepped down.
Peloni: The strengthening of Hamas thru this hostage deal is highly damaging. It demonstrates the strength of Hamas both inside Gaza, and to the Arab street inside Israel and the PA. As KuperWasser describes it, terror pays off. The repercussions for this debacle stand as a great betrayal to the lives which have been lost thus far in this war, and a resounding victory to those who advocated for Israel to capitulate to Hamas rather than persevere onward towards victory.
