Peloni:  Obama’s policy was predicated on the notion that the US had more to gain from its enemies than it did from its ally in Israel.  Notably, this policy was unsupportable, inexplicable, and simply inaccurate.  It was also the only aspect of Obama’s foreign policy where perceived enemies were valued as greater than allies.  This is why tensions with both Russia and China have exacerbated in the same period in which tensions with Iran were moderated.  While there existed opportunities of negotiation with other adversaries, there has never been any such opportunity with Iran, whose entire regime is predicated upon the subjugation of the West and the annihilation of Israel and world Jewry.

Remembering what that means: Obama refused to recognize that Israel’s leaders might have a better grasp of the situation than he did. He also thought it wrong that they would prioritize their nation’s security. Op-ed.

“A Harris Victory Means a Fourth Obama Term,” proclaimed an editorial in The Wall Street Journal (WSJ), and “her foreign policy aides are on board for appeasing Iran and putting restraints on Israel.”

This is far from surprising, yet is instructive to examine how Obama viewed the Middle East and Iran.

I don’t understand how we got so toxic and just so divided and so bitter,” Barack Obama wondered at a Kamala rally in Wisconsin.

A day later the Kamala campaign began accusing Trump of being Hitler.

As October surprises go, a Democrat accusing a Republican of being Hitler is as surprising as pint size witches and ghosts showing up on your doorstep on October 31. Ever since FDR accused Wendel Wilkie of using “Hitler tactics” back during the 1940 election, calling your opponent Hitler has been a rite of passage since even before Joe Biden was born.

• Resilient Israelis make wine and beer while under fire.
• Celebrating Sukkot (Tabernacles) in Israel is a unique experience.

Peloni:  It seems impossible to contemplate that any Jew would vote for Kamala whose donors are specifically responsible for the financial support of the antisemitic rallies across the US, and which are left unopposed by the Kamala-Biden regime in Washington.  This reality seems rather relavant to Kamala’s desire to preserve Hamas and Hezbollah, even as Israel literally has brought these den’s of antisemitic iniquity to their knees.  The lack of self respect, self interest, and indeed self preservation demonstrated by American Jews in supporting the enemies of Jews in the US, around the world, and in the Jewish Homeland, provides antisemites, on both the Right and the Left, with a great opportunity to demonize, threaten, and assault Jews without consequence.  I hope the polls indicating the trends of continued Jewish nihilism in the US are unfounded, but then again, as Diane explains below, there is a great deal of history indicating that this trend is not terribly surprising, even as it remains terribly dangerous.

Dear Jews, we have failed miserably at teaching generations one of the most important lessons of the Holocaust.

Somewhere along the way, we forgot to teach our children that a Jew is a Jew is a Jew. From time immemorial, there have been all kinds of Jews. Especially after the Enlightenment when Napoleon gave Jews their freedom from the ghettos. He declared France the homeland of the Jews, after it became obvious he could not establish their national home in Palestine.  He was one of the people most responsible for their transition from enduring medieval restrictions inside ghettos to becoming citizens of modern nation states.

Peloni:  It was quite heartening to hear that Australia refused to offer Owens a venue from which to spread her unhinged Jew Hatred.  Public and official opposition to such Jew-baiting has become ever more important in an age marked by public and governmental expressions of Jew Hatred around the world.  From the condemnations of Israel’s continued existence to condoned violence against Jews at universities around the world, it would be a welcomed sight to see a policy of intolerance as expressed by Australia towards the renewed Jew Hatred being promoted around the world.  Til then, I can only offer my every praise and strong support for Australia in setting a mark for others to follow.

Candace Owens is an obsessive antisemite, on a par with Roger Waters, who describes her animus toward Jews as merely the result of her justified anguish over the terrible things Israel has been doing, she claims, in Gaza. It is hard to see how what goes on in Gaza leads to the conclusion that all those stories about Dr. Mengele’s medical experiments at Auschwitz must be false, or that stories about the Holocaust are greatly exaggerated, or why the war in Gaza could lead Ms. Owens to conclude that a “Zionist media empire” controls so much of what we read or hear — in which case, how is it that we read and hear so much by Candace Owens? Why hasn’t that “Zionist media empire” managed to silence her?

A professor who says anti-Zionism is not necessarily antisemitic has been hired by a prominent New York City synagogue to teach a course on the question of whether or not anti-Zionism is antisemitic. Talk about getting the wrong guy for a job!

The biased lecturer in question is Dr. David E. Kaufman, who for many years taught at the Los Angeles branch of Reform Judaism’s Hebrew Union College.

His latest gig is teaching a course for Temple Emanu-El, in Manhattan. The six-part series started on October 29th and is called “Antisemitism, Zionism, and Anti-Zionism.” According to the official description, its focus is on “the question of whether anti-Zionism is inherently antisemitic.”

It is not my intention to provide black pills. However, we discuss events through the prism of what exists, what we can see and track, rather than what we pretend might be in place.  Thus, today CTH fires a signal flare drawing attention away from precinct voting polling places, and toward tabulation centers.

There is some alarming evidence beginning to surface pointing toward a shift in the USA election process, specifically the fundamentally changed process that now exists behind absentee balloting.

Bullets and bombs are for battlefields, but when Israel is up against the entire ummah, that dimension is absent from her warmaking. Israel will win this war, but the cost will prove needlessly high. It is a religious war, jihad, in which the role of states is subordinate.

ANJULI PANDAVAR | Oct 29, 2024

“Israel has shown its true face to the whole world, and people have seen the savageness. They are savages with what they are doing, their killing. They enjoy destroying the water tanks or whatever. What is the joy in destroying a water tank that would support people to drink? So they do it willingly and they laugh about it. Leave aside killing thousands of children.” — Dr Tareq Al-Suwaidan.

If anyone knows one thing about NATO, it is that it has a doctrine of an attack on one is an attack on all, the famous Article 5. This keeps even the smallest and weakest members of NATO safe from predatory powers that might attack them. Islam has its own Article 5 doctrine: Muslims are friends and helpers only amongst themselves, never to others; Muslims never rat on Muslims, even under oath; Muslims come to the aid of Muslims; and Muslims are, by definition, permanently at war with “those who believe not in Allah”. In other words, the Islamic Article 5 works at the level of the individual Muslim, more so than at the level of a state. That is the doctrine.

From the standpoint of international law, there is a basic legal distinction between jihadist terror violence and Israel’s no-choice response to such violence. Whether Israel is operating against Shi’ite Hezbollah in Lebanon or Sunni Hamas in Gaza, it always seeks legitimate military objectives with minimum civilian harm. Noncombatant harms can never be prevented altogether, especially when the perfidious enemy is hiding behind human shields, but Jerusalem is not motivated by mens rea, “criminal intent.”

Latest Developments

Seven people across northern Israel were killed by Hezbollah rocket fire on October 31 amid ongoing discussions to halt the war between Israel and the Iran-backed terrorist organization in Lebanon. Five people were killed by a Hezbollah attack near Metula, while two more were killed near Haifa by a separate Hezbollah barrage fired later in the day.

The latest deadly attacks come as U.S. officials Brett McGurk and Amos Hochstein are set to travel to Israel to discuss ceasefires in both Lebanon and Gaza. Speaking for Hamas, Taher al-Nunu, a senior official, told media outlets that the Iran-backed terrorist organization “supports a permanent end to the war” and will reject outright any temporary ceasefire proposal.

Iran is considering launching a retaliatory response to Israel’s strike before the U.S. elections next Tuesday, Nov. 5, CNN reported on Wednesday afternoon.

The U.S. news site reported that a “high-ranking source” told them Israel’s recent strike on Iran will be met with a “definitive and painful” response.

You know things are looking bad for Kameleon Harris when even the progressive Los Angeles Times declines to endorse her!

In fact, just last week, both Wayne Allyn Root and Paul Manafort compared this election to that of 1980 when Ronald Reagan trounced Jimmy Carter with a landslide victory. They predict Trump is about to have a similar landslide. American voters didn’t like inflation under President Carter, and like it no better under Biden and Harris, among other things.

Peloni:  Of course, Clinton pursued his age old tactic of attacking the Right to empower the Left during this speech, while also coming to the inexplicable conclusion that Kamala must be the candidate of choice, but in so far as he goes in this clip, his commentary was quite accurate and well explained.

Peloni:  Must see video.  Ross and Peterson cover a great deal of ground in this conversation as they dissect the coerced Trans-epidemic being leveraged against children today.  They highlight statistics and explain the reality of this catastrophe which has left thousands of children scarred and brutalized to suit a social agenda.  Among other revelations, Ross shares a list of 12 children’s hospitals who are most complicity in promoting this barbarity on susceptible parents.

Peloni:  There is a point at which the quiet part is stated out loud, clarifying what was once controversial as being the new reality.
