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.

Dominion voting access terminals were notorious in the 2020 election for demonstrable issues that led to compromises in the voting process. Unfortunately, those voting problems associated with Dominion appear to be carrying over into the 2024 election.

Comparing Trump to Hitler? Can any rational person compare what Hitler did when he initiated the most disastrous war in history to what the former president accomplished during his four years in office?

Dr. Alex Grobman | Oct 28, 2024

“Hitler’s ‘career’ was truly astonishing,” observed historian Ian Kershaw. He was “an absolute nobody” throughout the first half of his life. During the second half, he forced the world to wait in fear and trepidation for his every move. The devastation he caused in Europe was “unmatched even by Attila the Hun.”

A Warning for American Citizens

MG Paul E Vallely, US Army (Ret)  Morning Intelligence Report

By Lee Smith[1], Guest Editorial | October 29.2024

The propaganda campaign labeling Donald Trump as an aspiring dictator determined to use the military and national security apparatus against his political opponents is designed not to affect the upcoming election but rather to shape the post-election environment. It is the central piece of a narrative that, by characterizing Trump as a tyrant (indeed likening him to Hitler), establishes the conditions for violence — not just another attempt on Trump’s life, but political violence on a massive scale intended to destabilize the country.

As I write in my forthcoming book Disappearing the President, Democratic Party research and media reports show that many senior party officials and operatives are preparing for the possibility of a Trump victory. Accordingly, planning is focused on undermining the incoming president with enough violence to rock his administration. Prominent post-election scenarios forecast such widespread rioting that the newly elected president would be compelled to invoke the Insurrection Act. With some senior military officials refusing to follow Trump’s orders, according to the scenarios, the U.S. Armed Forces would split, leaving America on the edge of the abyss.

Peloni:  The challenge to the establishement’s ability to continue business as usual is what drew the ire from intelligence community, it is what brought about the impeachment charade in which the witnesses perjured themeselves, it is what brought about the election theft which was certified as legitimate, and it was what made it necessary for the challenge of the election fraud to be made illegitmate with a fabricated assault on the capital using paramilitary hacks who are likely the only ones who will never be charged for the Jan. 6 psyop.  So the question remains, what will they do next.

Peloni:  This is a must read speech by Netanyahu.

A war of annihilation was imposed on us, and we are responding with a war of rebirth.

ANJULI PANDAVAR |

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s speech to the nation at the close of the High Holidays, on 27 October 2024, was a speech to pull what has been a fractured nation together, to give voice to all the pain, to acknowledge the sacrifices, and articulate the accomplishments. It gave love, strength, inspiration and determination. To everyone.

Honourable President of the State, Isaac Herzog and his wife Michal, Speaker of the Knesser, Amir Ohana, Acting President of the Supreme Court, Justice Isaac Amit, Minister of Defence, Yoav Gallant, Ministers and dozens of Members of Knesset, Chief of Staff, Herzi Halevi, The Head of Shin Bet, Ronen Bar, Commissioner of Police, Chief Commissioner Daniel Levy, Representatives of various memorial organisations, and esteemed guests, many who, on the advice of the President, I won’t list everyone, but above all, the families of the hostages, and my brothers and sisters of the bereaved families, relatives of our heroes, the fallen of the struggle.

My wife and I visited many families, and we stood in awe [of] those family members whose lives have changed in an instant, and will never return to what they were. We sometimes stood before the bravery of the fallen, before the resilience of the families, their endurance in indescribable suffering, in grief and in a void that cannot be described.

by Seth Mandel | Commentary | October 29, 2024

When 84-year-old Ditza Heiman was released from Hamas captivity and ready to tell her story, she revealed that she was held in Gaza for 53 days under the watchful eye of a teacher from the United Nations agency in Gaza, UNRWA.

In August, UNRWA director Philippe Lazzarini was confronted by Ayelet Samerano, whose son was killed on Oct. 7: “As you can see in the video that is online, on Oct. 7 an UNRWA employee entered Israel and actively participated in the massacre, brutally murdering and kidnapping my boy’s body, with a United Nations car, into Gaza.”

It gets tiring to rehearse the many such stories—the nine staffers fired by the agency for participating in the Oct. 7 Hamas massacre, the hundreds of agency employees who Israel claims were moonlighting with one of Gaza’s terrorist groups, the discovery that the head of the UNRWA teachers union was also Hamas’s top official in Lebanon, the agency’s sharing of facilities with Hamas command centers, the rockets stored in UNRWA schools and the Hamas tunnels underneath them.

Smotrich made his comments while speaking at the Middle East Summit [called “Correct Middle East” in Hebrew], hosted by Israel365, an Orthodox Jewish organization focused on raising support for Israel among American Evangelical Christians.

Peloni:  Iran can not be deterred.  They may change their tactics, choose alternate targets, or rely exclusively upon their proxies, but Iran’s entire political, religious and military systems, which extend far beyond Iran’s borders, will progress as Frantzman indicates below regardless of what Israel does.  Their raison d’etre is the annihilation of Israel, the Jews, and the West.  Their influence is now all across Europe and even within some of the most sensitive positions within the US govt.  Hence, by pursuing an agenda of deterring Iran, it should be understood that it is not been Iran who has not been  deterred, but Israel and the West.  This is why October 7 was understood to be a surprise, because Israel and the West accepted their deterrence policy as successful, and of course, in doing so, the deterrence which Iran had secured over Israel and the West gave rise to the notion that the unprovoked Iranian attack around Gaza was in any way a surprise.  The pursuit of deterrence must end, and with it, the toleration for the existential threat which remains undeterred from the regime in Iran which means to see October 7 events visited all across Israel and the West.

Almost certainly it will keep trying to target Israel with proxies

November is the month of great wonders.

A new conspiracy against His Royal Highness Mohammed bin Salman will fail miserably. Behind it stands an evil current in America that follows a certain faction and not the American government.

The conspiracy against His Highness Mohammed bin Salman unfortunately involves a Gulf emirate. Bribes worth billions of dollars were paid to some weak souls.

Al-Yamamah Palace is steadfast and stable and has no loopholes. The money of the dreamy pretender will go down the drain and the Saudi rule is as firm as a generation.
