Rabbi Herzog tweeted the following:
Today’s information / What will happen after the assassination of Nasrallah:
The possibility of a full-scale war is weak.
The assassination of Hezbollah leader Nasrallah will not be the last assassination. Four other major figures are soon to be targeted.
Peloni: Why indeed? Over the course of forty years, the US went from fighting Hezbollah in Lebanon to funding a Hezbollah run govt which held Lebanon in its grip. The shame and complicity of having made such a transition is a true impeachment of American foreign policy over this same period, and should be considered in light of growing support of Iran with the sole exception of Trump’s administration which continued funding of Hezbollah controlled Lebanon as he openly challenged their masters in Tehran.
Why didn’t we do this?

In previous posts I had highlighted some of the family members of American victims of Hezbollah terror back in the 1980s asking why the United States could not have done what Israel just did. Obviously we could have.
And administration after administration chose not to.

Peloni: Ritter is absolutely correct in every aspect of his description of the mendacious Hashemites. Indeed, this hostile, corrupted, colonial line of oppressors will soon be swept from power and the world will be all the better for his going almost as much as it will be for Mudar’s rise to power in replacing them.

T. Belman. This article has a very clear summary of what has taken place. But beginning with WHAT NEXT?, it gets very interesting and informative.
By Dr. Eado Hecht, BESA September 29, 2024
WHAT NEXT?
For now, Israel seems to be focused on an aerial bombing campaign to degrade Hezbollah. It is going for Hezbollah’s leadership hierarchy and arsenal of strategic artillery. The hope appears to be that Hezbollah, given the surge in its casualties in general (a few thousand within less than two weeks) and among its leadership in particular, as well as the destruction of much (though by no means all) of its strategic artillery arsenal, will be compelled to back down and agree to a ceasefire to save what can be saved.
If this does not succeed, the Israelis are indicating that they are prepared to conduct a ground offensive into Lebanon. They have reinforced their ground forces in the north and have been conducting numerous training exercises specifically for the Lebanese theater (and reporting them repeatedly in the media for psychological effect).
Peloni: An excellent analysis of the recent fallout following the obliteration of Nasrallah and his entire command structure as well as much of Hezbollah’s warriors and missiles. As Netanyahu has begun the destruction of Hezbollah, he has changed the entire Middle East, becoming the emancipator of the Sunni nations held captive under the control of Iran, and as a consequence Bibi has emerged as the acting leader of the Free World. With his strengthened coalition Bibi must continue pushing forward in eliminating Iran and its limbs of terror throughout the region.
Seth Frantzman tweeted the following:
Some discussion about the elimination of Nasrallah has referenced the removal of Soleimani back in 2020. Now, here is my question. There’s no doubt the killing of Soleimani was a blow, however, Iran’s IRGC-backed axis recovered and coordinated between Hamas, Hezbollah, PIJ and the Houthis.
In fact, the Houthis, Hezbollah, Hamas and PIJ became more powerful since 2020, so even fit eh IRGC was without a charismatic leader, the Iranian “axis” continued to grow.

Some of Kamala Harris’s supporters constitute yet another ominous omen in the perturbing accumulation that the prospect of her victory portends.
Recently, a distressed Twitter/X message from a well-known Israeli-Australian human rights jurist caught my eye. It dealt with an institute, which I must confess, I had never heard of previously—but perhaps that is merely a testament to my ignorance.
Shameful & Shameless
The institute, the Lemkin Institute, professes to be dedicated to the study of the grisly topic of “genocide” and what so appalled the eminent lawyer was the bizarre manner in which the Institute—that bears the name of the man, who originally conceived the term “genocide”—had chosen to twist and distort its alleged focus of inquiry. With evident dismay, he tweeted: “Quite incredible that @LemkinInstitute, named after Raphael Lemkin, who coined the term ‘genocide’, would now be shilling for jihadists of Hezbollah (and Hamas), who would seek to carry out another genocide against the Jewish people! Shame on you!”

In the 29th Sep 24 edition of Israel’s good news, the highlights include:
Peloni: In fact, the dismemberment and decapitation of the institutionalized terror organization of Hezbollah is likely far more important than the Abraham Accords, and it will in all likelihood result in facilitating a strengthened and expanded the AA. By itself, Israel is returning Iran to a state of isolation, cutting its regional terror limbs one at a time, and she is doing so against the demands of her many allies. Much like Operation Opera, when Israel acted against Iraqi nuclear aspirations amid the condemnation of her allies, Israel must continue to act with the strength, resolve and focus of a sovereign nation facing an existential threat. By doing so, she will not only strengthen and secure the Israeli state, but she will also come to respected by her current and future partners for having done so.
Jared Kushner posted the following on X:
September 27th is the most important day in the Middle East since the Abraham Accords breakthrough.
I have spent countless hours studying Hezbollah and there is not an expert on earth who thought that what Israel has done to decapitate and degrade them was possible.
This is significant because Iran is now fully exposed. The reason why their nuclear facilities have not been destroyed, despite weak air defense systems, is because Hezbollah has been a loaded gun pointed at Israel. Iran spent the last forty years building this capability as its deterrent.
Peloni: A well earned victory lap for a long overdue victory. In point of fact, this was a momentous victory for Israel, for the US and for the world, as the crimes against Nasrallah extended far beyond the shores of the Jewish State. Yet, even with the vast array of forces at the disposal of the US and its allies around the world, they chose to embrace Nasrallah rather than depose him, to fund him rather than eliminate him. Instead, it fell to Israel to rid the world of this mendacious war criminal, and to simultaneously eliminate his commanders and to already significantly degrade his organization. Over forty years, this psychopath came to earn the respect of nations whose butchered citizens went unrespected and unavenged. In fact, til Bibi ordered the elimination of Nasrallah, there had been no justice for those who went to an early grave to satisfy the bloodlust of Nasrallah and his minions – Jews and Gentiles, Israelis and Lebanese, Americans and French were betrayed by the world which ignored the butchered while it honored the butcher. Hopefully, the age in which such terrorists as Nasrallah are legitimized by the world, and simultaneously leveraged against Israel by her allies, has come to an end, and in its place we will perhaps enter a new era in which retribution for such barbarity as was Nasrallah’s trade will be expeditiously pursued by all nations whose citizens are affected by it in a timely fashion, and not left for the heroes of Israel to resolve alone, some forty years later.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has confirmed that he ordered the target on “arch-murderer” Nasrallah, while the Washington Post asserted that “Nasrallah chose his own fate.”
Netanyahu delivered a full statement (courtesy of the Israeli Government Press Office):
“If someone rises up to kill you, kill him first.”
Peloni: This is an important article. I have referenced the Iranian interference in 2020 previously, but the interference being exploited by Iran on behalf of Harris has far outpaced what took place in 2020.
Unlike Russiagate, Irangate is real and has roots in the White House.
Daniel Greenfield | Sept 27, 2024
In the last two months, Iran set up fake news sites to defame Trump and promote Kamala, hacked the Trump campaign and tried to pass stolen documents to the Harris-Walz campaign and its media allies, and finally plotted to assassinate former President Trump and his officials.
These rather definite statements of Iran’s intentions in the presidential election have been dismissed with generic Russiagate buzzwords that describe the Islamic terrorist state as being out to “destabilize and sow chaos”. When Iran hacked the Trump campaign, we were told that it was to “sow chaos” and now that Trump has been briefed on the assassination threats, once again it’s been described as a plot to “destabilize and sow chaos” in the United States.
Peloni: Avi released this video before the hit on Nasallah, but he captures the essence of how victory must be obtained, and anything less than victory stands as a defeat.

EXPOSED – Omeed Malik: Lifelong Democrat with Iranian Ties Becomes Tucker Carlson’s Main Financial Backer, Raising Questions About Who’s Funding Carlson’s Anti-Israel Rhetoric
Omeed Malik, a former New York-based investment banker and money manager, has emerged as the primary financial supporter of Tucker Carlson, the former Fox News host turned independent media figure. Malik’s political shift has drawn significant attention due to his background as a self-described “lifelong Democrat” and donor to left-leaning causes. In 2020, Malik made a surprising investment in The Daily Caller, a conservative website, marking the beginning of his association with Carlson’s political and media ventures.
Peloni: Joseph Shellim, the author of the “Philistine-To-Palestine”, has offered to publish the 12 Deceptions described in this important work on Israpundit. We will be posting one Deception each week for the next twelve week, beginning with the first installment today, The Name Deception.
Joseph Shellim | Sept 28, 2024
The name Palestine was a globally held reference to the homeland of the Jews, including in Muslim countries.
• In 1918-20 in the Azerbaijan Democratic Republic the Jewish communities published a Caucasian Jewish bulletin called “The Palestine” newspaper.
• The Middle East conflict was facilitated via name deceptions. The charges against Israel would be diminished without the corruption of names that are among histories’ most known and recorded. West Bank; Arab Palestinians; East Jerusalem. All three names are new historical fictions created in the Mid-20th Centuries, its aim to overturn the heritage marks of another people. All three names, presented as attachments of an Arab nativity claim and occupation charges are equally fictional. These are new names intended to cover the previous historical names of another people’s land. The impacts of these name corruptions affect all nations and their histories; it is a phenomenon that has nothing to do with Israel and thereby merits careful consideration.
What’s next for #Hezbollah, if #Nasrallah is killed.

Peloni: Bryen provides a devastating outlook for Ukraine, as the propaganda smoke once more gives way and the reality shaded by Ukrainian fake news is finally revealed. It is remarkable that the Ukrainian people have tolerated the attrition which has led to the sacrifice of blood and land with such devastation, but with the potential twin collapses of Ukraine’s position in both Russia and Ukraine, we will see how well the Ukrainian despot holds onto his power. Both before and in the beginning of the war, Russia was poised to accept significant conditions, but that time has long past, even as Zelensky pretends to hold some new strategy for victory which has failed to impress anyone but Zelensky himself. Indeed, Ukraine has never had any chance of victory, and the only goal anticipated for some time in the West is to see a great slaughter of Slavs, and in this alone has Zelensky has been quite victorious.

72nd Mechanized army patch
1. There are multiple fronts in the war but an immediate major change is in the works for Vuhledar. Vuhledar, is a town in Volnovakha Raion, Donetsk Oblast, in eastern Ukraine. It was an important logistical and supply hub for the Ukrainian army. The Russian forces have now effectively surrounded the town and trapped the Ukrainian 72nd Mechanized Brigade inside. The Russians have dropped leaflets telling the Ukrainians they either must surrender or face destruction. The leaflets provide a means for the Ukrainians to contact the Russians to arrange for a surrender and have been promised medical and other necessary assistance. A “large number” of Ukrainians have already surrendered.

Earlier this morning in New York, President Trump met with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.
During part of their brief remarks (video below) President Trump noted in his estimation there could be a quick resolution to the conflict with Russia, saying, “I have a good relationship with President Putin,” to which Zelenskyy interrupted, “I hope we have more good relation.” In the artful and honest way of a man positioning for peace, President Trump noted, “it takes two to tango.”
The professional democrats and the professional republicans, essentially the UniParty in Washington DC, do not want the conflict to end. The money laundering process created by the Ukraine conflict with Russia provides affluence for a host of domestic and foreign political interests.
The IDF airstrike on Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah weakens Iran’s regional influence and disrupts Hezbollah’s operations.

The airstrike that killed Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah in Beirut on September 27 is a major game-changer after more than eleven months of war., and has the potential to upset Iran’s plans and weaken Hezbollah. Here are five ways the strike may affect the war and the region.
Iran’s most experienced ally targeted
Hassan Nasrallah was Iran’s most experienced ally in the region. The Hezbollah leader had been key to Iran’s plans in the region for decades. In the last several years, he had grown even more powerful. Iran sought to create a multi-front war against Israel in the wake of the October 7 attack. The assassinated terrorist leader helped lead that war.
Peloni: How ironic is it that watching Bibi’s speech before the UN signaling Israel’s commitment to victory was Nasrallah’s final action. Victory defines security, while capitulating to foreign influences only guarantees future slaughters.
