Ambassador (ret.) Yoram Ettinger | “Second Thought: a US-Israel Initiative” | October 7, 2024, bit.ly/3BtliBu

Sympathizing with a screensaver mentality amounts to ceding reality to an imaginary, pleasant, sometimes hallucinating alternate reality. The October 7 horrific Islamic terrorism possesses the potential of moving the mouse, hitting a key and disparaging a screensaver-like self-defeating Western policy.

For example:

1. The October 7 massacre – which was guided and financed largely by Iran’s Ayatollahs, who have also guided Hezbollah’s and the Houthis’ offensive against Israel, the US and other Western countries – should have removed the screensaver mentality of the diplomatic option toward Iran’s Ayatollahs for the following reasons:

Rabbi Jacob Herzog tweeted the following:

The era of the sickness of leaders. What do you think is the illness of President Sisi? Could it be AIDS, for example? Please provide clarification.

The King of Jordan is living his last 36 months on earth.

Evil beyond belief.  I just can’t get over how vile these people are!  I can’t get my mind around the situation and understand why G-d hasn’t smote them.  

Calling and working toward the death of 4 billion “useless eaters” with orchestrated “disasters,” adulterating and destroying the food supply, using biological and chemical weapons, destroying life-saving energy supplies, encouraging lawlessness, engaging in nonsensical and deadly wars – PURPOSELY HURTING human beings made in G-d’s image.

The Helene, East Palestine, Lahaina tragedies have brought this into such sharp relief.

What really happened then and what is really happening now.

by Daniel Greenfield | October 7, 2024

On Oct 7, 2023, thousands of Hamas terrorists invaded Israel. Their mission was to wipe out the Jewish population in the nearby towns, secure them and use them as forward operating bases for the next phase of the war. While the atrocities they committed in that initial assault, entire families burned alive in their homes, women raped and kidnapped, and babies killed, made it look like a terrorist attack on a large scale, Oct 7 had not been meant as a hit and run operation.

Hamas had risked too much and put too many men in the field for it to be anything other than an invasion. Its plans to continue advancing into Israel appear unrealistic only out of context.

Peloni:  Just say NO!  Israel faces an existential threat, to which the US is offering to help Israel, but only if Israel agrees to maintain that existential threat to grow ever more exitential into the future.  The answer must be NO, and for the US to even suggest such a proposal makes clear with whom their true regional alliance lies.

According to Israeli Public Broadcasting; the United States has offered Israel an Extensive Package which includes International Political-Backing and additional Militray Assistance, if they decide against Attacking certain Targets inside of Iran, likely to include Nuclear Sites.

In a formal introduction of his newly chosen Cabinet, President Biden proudly declared: “This is the first [time] in American history that the cabinet looks like America.”  Scrutinizing the actual appointments and not just the sex, skin color, and ethnic origins of the Biden team reveals a group that may look like America but doesn’t think like America.  In fact, it is a team whose outlook is transparently anti-American.

Dante Alighieri, in his masterful poem The Divine Comedy, portrays the afterlife as comprised of three realms: hell, purgatory and heaven. In his schematic, there are nine circles of hell, the deepest of which, where Satan himself dwells, is reserved for those who committed treachery. Cain, who killed his brother Abel, is there, among others. And who else resides in the lowest rungs of hell? Traitors to their righteous lords and leaders: Judas Iscariot who betrayed Jesus, along with Brutus and Cassius who betrayed Julius Caesar.

T. Belman. It is a misnomer to call this “aid”. It is in reality an investment that pays huge dividends to the US.

By AP   Oct 7, 2024

.
The United States has spent a record of at least $17.9 billion on military aid to Israel since the war in Gaza began and led to escalating conflict around the Middle East, according to a report for Brown University’s Costs of War project, released on the anniversary of Hamas’ attacks on Israel.

An additional $4.86 billion has gone into stepped-up US military operations in the region since the Oct. 7, 2023, attack, researchers say in findings first provided to The Associated Press. That includes the costs of a Navy-led campaign to quell strikes on commercial shipping by Yemen’s Houthis, who claim to be carrying them out in solidarity with the fellow Iranian-backed terror group Hamas.

• Our Western bosses have caused outrageous suffering and death for millions of people.
• Is that stupidity?
• Or is it evil?
• What kind of system are we in?

In a recent podcast (which I highly recommend) Bret Weinstein asks this question: Should we model the bosses as evil psychopaths?

People usually don’t ask this question; they just assume the bosses are roughly like their own selves: normal. Normies. To understand the bosses they ask: ‘In their shoes, what would I want? What would I do?’

But this gives very bad predictions if the bosses are sociopaths or psychopaths, says Weinstein, because in that case you are nothing like them.

Rabbi Jacob Herzog just tweeted the folowing:

“King Felipe of Spain, who visited King Abdullah of Jordan today, fled quickly after realizing what was coming. Notice that he left in less than two hours. King Felipe heard it with his own ears: ‘Everything is over.’
