Peloni:  It is important that Vance recognize that he is the leader of the US and not Israel, of course, but his pronouncement here and elsewhere are quite reminiscent of his good friend Tucker Carlson, whose son currently works on Vance’s staff.  Recalling Carlson’s nearly knee jerk call for Vance to be recognized as Trump’ successor just a little more than a month after Trump took office did seem to give Trump some pause, as he noted it was too early to draw any such conclusion, and of course, Trump was right.  But time and circumstances do draw out the values and influences which define a person, and to Erin’s point below, we should be concerned by some of what we hear Vance say in those unscripted moments which reveal the man behind the speeches.  It is still early, and perhaps we will see better from Vance in the future.  I am curious what others think on this matter.

Peloni:  This certainly can not be a surprise to any of us.  In fact, not only is this in Iran’s interest, it is in China’s interest as well.  The only way to have prevented this from occuring was to have allowed Israel to conduct its intended decapitating strike in Iran at the end of the 12 Day War.  Unfortunately, Trump scolded Bibi by calling for him to turn his planes around.  There are many reasons why he might have done so, but the fact that he did so gave the Iranians the means by which to continue to threaten the region and the world, along with the support of the Chinese arms which will serve to arm them in the next leg of this conflict between Israel and Iran, and do not be deceived, this war is not yet over.

Iran is rebuilding its ballistic missile program despite recently imposed United Nations (UN) sanctions, CNNreported on October 29. Citing European intelligence sources, Iran imported shipments of chemicals used to produce medium-range ballistic missiles in recent weeks.

These sources assessed that on September 29, 2,000 tons of sodium perchlorate—a key precursor for solid-propellant missiles—arrived in the Iranian port city of Bandar Abbas. Iran purchased the chemical from China to replenish its stocks of ballistic missiles that were either used or destroyed during the war with Israel in June, CNN reported.

Peloni:  What needs to be understood as the reality behind this scandal is that among the initial charges against the IDF soldiers was the charge that they had sodomized the prisoner in question, this despite there was never any evidence presented to support this charge on the video which was released.  Furthermore, the video itself has evidence of being selectively edited in at least two places, and counter claims have been made that these edits were effected to alter the true context of the events which were recorded.  This represents a massive blood libel against the IDF and seriously damaged Israel’s image during the height of its 8 front war with Iran.  The impact of these charges against the good conduct and nature of the IDF at a critical point in the war can not be overstated, and yet it was the intention of the authorities involved to sweep the truth of this calumny against Israel under the rug.  The revelation of this inquiry gives hope that the reign of terror held over Israel by the Israeli Deep State may be at the zenith of its illicit power and mismanagement.  One can only hope that this is true.

Far-right lawmaker who joined mob at detention facility where abuse allegedly took place last year accuses military’s top lawyer of distributing footage to ‘slander IDF soldiers’

Coalition members welcomed Attorney General Gali Baharav-Miara’s decision Wednesday to launch a criminal probe into leaked footage from the Sde Teiman detention facility that purported to show soldiers severely abusing a Gazan inmate last year, saying the video was leaked to defame the troops.

According to the IDF, investigators are probing the possible involvement of individuals from the office of Military Advocate General Maj. Gen. Yifat Tomer-Yerushalmi in distributing the video aired by Channel 12 in August 2024. Tomer-Yerushalmi, who is not herself a suspect, is on indefinite leave due to the investigation, which Baharav-Miara said was launched following new evidence.

Sebastien Zorn:  Why on earth hasn’t anyone challenged this twelver shia muslim to say if he feels the same way about Iran, not to mention the 22 explicitly Muslim Arab states and the 57 states in the Organization of Islamic Cooperation, 10 of whom don’t even have Muslim majorities, such as Uganda, where he also has citizenship! Does he support BDSing them? Does he condemn the muslim genocide of Christians in Africa? Of black muslims by Arab muslims? The ICC also placed arrests on Hamas leadership. Will he arrest any Hamas representative who sets foot in NYC? Hamas describes itself as a branch of the Muslim Brotherhood, another offshoot of which, CAIR which $100,000 to his campaign. Will he give it back and condemn them? Will he arrest them? Does he still give his love to the Holy Land Five?

Does he think Jews should have equal rights on the Temple Mount and in Judea, Samaria and Gaza? Should the millions of descendants of the Jews in Saudi Arabia Mohammed had killed and those who may have escaped, get their homes back? Perennial refugees of the Jewish Nakhba? (They want to be the Jews? Fine, lets trade places. One good dystopian fantasy deserves another. ? )

Peloni:  The attempt to pretend that this war is against Hamas alone will only serve to see any resolution to this war fail.   The Palestinian Arabs in Gaza and in Judea/Samaria still revel in the memory of the October 7 Massacre, which they still revere as being a key victory in lifelong, generational war against Israel and the Jewish people.  While recognizing this fact makes the solution needed more difficult, recognizing the reality of this situation is the only way any framework might actually hope to approach a peaceful outcome.  Recalling that Jordan was created to be the Arab portion of Palestine is a vital and necessary element of what might help pursue peace, and having a leader there which supports this truth would be an absolute necessity.

Hamas continues to enjoy high support among Palestinians despite two-year war

All Israel News Staff | Published: October 29, 2025

A recent Palestinian poll found that more than half of Palestinians surveyed in Gaza and in Judea and Samaria say the decision by Hamas to carry out the Oct. 7, 2023, invasion of Israel was correct.

The recent poll, conducted after the release of the living Israeli hostages and the Palestinian prisoners, surveyed 1,200 Palestinians in both the Palestinian Territories in Judea and Samaria (referred to in the poll as the West Bank), and in Gaza.

There can be little doubt that Zohran Mamdani poses a threat to the safety of New York City residents who are not Muslim. His views and those of his supporters are a far cry from the expectations of Western morality

Peloni:  This is a very important description of Abdullah by a major advocate of the Muslim Brotherhood.  There is much to be gained from this 5min video.  Listen carefully to how the Muslim Brotherhood perceives Israel’s so called peace partner in Jordan as a bulwark of support.  Furthermore, hear how KSA and UAE are simultaneously derided as Israeli agents.

Peloni:  These ‘Woke Right’ provocateurs are actively rising a revolution in the Right which far better aligns them with the Left, as they actively ignore personal liberties, eschew well established American values, and call to realign America with American enemies who are themselves actively interested in overthrowing American/Western society. Importantly, the values and outlook of Carlson etc is better aligned with Obama than with Trump, better aligned with Iran/Qatar than with Israel/KSA and ultimately better aligned with the agenda of China in America than with the MAGA agenda in the USA.   Hence, describing them as Woke Right or Far Right only serves to disguise their ideological deviation from the Right, and the fact that this deviation is towards the Far Left.  Making this mistake only serves to help Carlson and his allies achieve the goal which they are ultimately seeking, namely to fracture the MAGA movement which they oppose, while actively stoking the embers of Jew Hatred to do so.

• Hamas Attacks in Rafah: Hamas terrorists attacked IDF troops in the southern Gaza city of Rafah on October 28, violating the fragile ceasefire between Israel and the Iran-backed terrorist group. During the attack, the terrorists reportedly used small arms and an anti-tank missile to fire at Israeli forces. The attack marked the second incident of its kind since October 19, when two IDF soldiers were killed by a Hamas cell operating in the area. In the aftermath of the attack in Rafah, Hamas released a statement denying responsibility.

Peloni:  The future of the state is dependent upon Israel acting in its own interests and supporting the public towards this objective.  It is vital that false and malicious narratives be denied their status as being unavoidable eventualities by changing the facts on the ground which have been preserved and perverted specifically towards such unavoidable eventualities.  Building in Judea and Samaria while demolishing illegal erected with the assistance of foreign NGOs and UN agencies is how these unavoidable eventualities will be avoided.

It is there where the future of the Jewish state is being decided

by Hugh Fitzgerald | Oct 29, 2025

While all eyes, for good and ill, are on Gaza and the Trump plan, the future of the Jewish state is being decided in Judea and Samaria. It is there, and not in Haifa or Tel Aviv, where Jewish history was made over the last 3,500 years. The League of Nations assigned Judea and Samaria to be part of the territory that was to become the Jewish National Home, and then the State of Israel. In 1967, the UN Security Council Resolution 242 recognized that Israel had a right to retain any territory the IDF had won in the Six-Day War that the Jewish state required if it was to have “secure and defensible borders.”

Peloni:  The consequence of the deficiency in munitions, men and morale is unavoidable for Ukraine.  Pursuing objectives which diminish Russian naval or energy assets can not change this reality because it does not address the deficiencies which are responsible for the reality that Ukraine continues to cede ground nearly continuously while attacking Russia’s energy and naval assets.  The incongruence only grows greater with each declared Ukrainian ‘victory’ which fails to provide battlefield benefits…and the butcher’s bill grows ever greater for both sides.

Peloni:  Mainstreaming of Jew Hatred is not an intrinsic or honest American value.  Those who tolerate such inimical rhetoric display a lack of clarity which has preceded the fall of past civilizations which first betrayed its basic value system while tolerating and adopting radical believes promoted by charismatic leaders.  America must choose to be American, to value meritocracy, to rejoice in the practice of true equality before the law, and to hunger for a better tomorrow in which subsequent generations might not only exist, but will thrive in leading the world towards being a better place to leave to their own subsequent generations.  Importantly, this are not what will come from electing a man such as Mamdani for any position of power, and the useful idiots who have thus far lent to him their sense of inclusiveness have betrayed the most basic tenets of their own identity.

Tucker Carlson’s shift from provocative media personality to a figure openly giving platforms to Holocaust revisionism and coded antisemitic tropes shows a disturbing trajectory. His kind of criticisms of Israel, invocation of classic antisemitic cliches (such as Jewish conspiracies and collective guilt), and lack of theological credibility undermine any claim to being a genuine Christian defender of Judeo-Christian values. Real Christians support Israel, and many conservative thinkers have long resisted Carlson’s frameworks of victim-blaming, replacement theory, and false equivalencies. His recent actions show how hidden antisemitism can suddenly reveal itself — and with influential amplifiers.
