With the government seemingly about to fall apart after an unusually long run, particularly amid the ongoing war, Israel’s political class is gearing up for new elections, which could be declared in the coming days and be set for the end of this year.

Peloni:  In his first segment Mark raises the issue of amending the US Constitution.  Mark explains that there is a top down process, where the proposed amendments are made by Congress to be ratified by the state, but there is also a process where the states make the proposed amendments, this latter process not having been previously invoked.  Mark explains that the Congress has proven to be hopelessly useless in reigning in the debt, and that it falls to the American people to make the case before their state legislatures to gain support for a Constitutional Convention.  What he doesn’t address, however, is that the Congress is empowered to choose the delegates to any Constitutional Convention formed, which would provide significant leverage for the Congress while using either process.

US negotiation vs. Iranian negotiation

A self-destructive step undertaken by US negotiators has been the assumption that negotiation with the Ayatollah regime (and any other terroristic regime) can be based on Western negotiation tactics.

Peloni:  Both Israel and Russia have an interest in opposing the continued Turkish expansion in the region.  Of course, coordination between Israel and Russia is not a new event, but in coordination to opposing Turkey it is both new, enlightening, and holds important implications going forward for not only Russia, Israel and Turkey, but for the US as well.

Peloni:  A decisive assault on Gaza followed by fascilitated tranfer of Gazans to Jordan would provide the version of what might be deemed as victory in Gaza.  Arming gangs suggests a long term strategy in Gaza which will obstruct both aspects of victory

Relying on a tribal militia or clan in Gaza may work in the short term. However, in the long term it is unlikely to achieve success.

Reports have confirmed that Israel has been arming and apparently supporting or working with armed militias in Gaza. Some reports refer to this group as a “gang.” Others describe the leader of the group, Yasser Abu Shabab, as a member of a large clan in southern Gaza.

There may be more clans being activated or encouraged than just the one linked to Abu Shabab, which is not his real name but rather a nomme de guerre, meaning the full details about this group continue to be shrouded in some mystery.It is therefore hard to know if these groups will become an effective anti-Hamas movement. If they are gangs that are better known for looting and other past crimes than for achieving much now, then they will likely not be embraced by the average person.

Peloni:  The threats facing Israel are existential in nature.  There is no choice but to say ‘no’ if dayslight exists between the policy interests of these two allied nations.

History teaches us not to assume support, to stand resolute, and to know our direction. When we are clear – grounded on Earth, not chasing the moon – the US will not block our path.

In recent weeks, the strain in Israel–US relations has left many Israelis stunned and unprepared. The belief that the American administration would always support us, or even be in our pocket, shattered loudly as President Donald Trump’s administration took unilateral actions without consulting or gaining Israel’s approval. Some of these moves directly undermine Israel – from the deal with the Houthis in Yemen, giving them a “flashing green light” to fire missiles at Israel, to the warm embrace of former jihadists in Syria, Recep Tayyip Erdo?an, and Qatar, purveyors of hatred and terror in the Middle East, to the rush toward an Iran deal that would leave its nuclear program nearly intact.

Peloni:  It is good to see Trump providing support for the rule of law, thus preventing the staged anarchy which oversaw the radicalization and untold casualties which came from the ‘Summer of Love’ back in 2020.  People have to understand that there is a new sheriff in town, and that he will uphold the laws of the land.

The first members of the National Guard arrived in Los Angeles early Sunday morning, hours after violent riots erupted over federal immigration enforcement actions. The move follows President Donald Trump’s order to deploy 2,000 troops to the city.

Peloni:  Such strong statments in support of a full ban on enrichment are encouraging, but the encouragement dissipates as Trump’s own negotiators are offering low grade enrichment.  Iran has enriched urainium which are clearly intended for a nuclear weapon.  Thus the must at the very least be stripped of the capability of enriching uranium altogether.  It is the height of incredulity that anyone would try to decieve themselves, or anyone else, that Iran has any purpose of a nuclear program which is not entirely militarily based.  Recognizing this fact, it begs the question as to why is Trump’s team offering Iran the ability to maintain this program, in any form at all.

After the war, the Plast organization was preserved among Ukrainian diaspora in Australia, Argentina, Canada, United Kingdom, Germany and the United States.

Peloni: Natasha Hausdorff is brilliant.  Israel’s enemies can do nothing more effective than to try to block her being heard, with the most notable example of this strategy is to be see in the outrageous so called interview of Natasha by Pierce Morgan
