How & when should you vote?  

Peloni:  Peg has collected and presented a great deal of information in this article, in which she makes a strong case for Trump supporters to take advantage of early voting.

Tierney’s Real News | Sep 28, 2024

The Trump campaign wants us ALL to vote. They want us to show up and vote for Trump and MAGA in such large numbers that the swamp simply can NOT create enough phony ballots or shut down machines or voting locations at the last minute to cheat-to-win. TOO BIG TO RIG.

People are asking me WHEN they should vote? Early, in person or by mail or on election day? There are lots of competing opinions out there from “pundits.” I did some research for you to answer that question. Here’s what I know and what I recommend with receipts!

From Israel: Oh, Stand Proud, Israel!!!  

Peloni:  This was an excellent summary of recent events

WHAT A DIFFERENCE A DAY MAKES!

Arlene Kushner | September 29, 2024

Since the horrendous massacre that was perpetrated by Hamas close to a year ago, the IDF has been taking down this Iran-sponsored terror group in Gaza, battle by battle. Almost all of the battalions have been degraded; a large percentage of Hamas weapons have been destroyed; 30-40% of Hamas tunnels have been rendered inoperable with 80% of the tunnels in Rafah destroyed; Israel has taken control of the Philadelphi Corridor, thus preventing smuggling of weaponry from the Sinai.

”The Curse”, the diversion, and the elimination of Hassan Nasrallah  

Many of the false assumptions and perceptions by terror leaders such as Nasrallah and Sinwar were based on believing Israel’s mainstream media reports – those who for the past two years have reported day after day that Israel is a fragmented society on the verge of civil war, and unable to resolve internal divisions.

The justified assassination of Hassan Nasrallah, head of the terror organization Hezbollah will have a dramatic effect on the Middle Eastern region and beyond. The terror organization fully funded and supported by the Iranian regime, has been Iran’s largest proxy organization established to threaten Israel on her northern border and deter Israel from taking military action against Iran that can disrupt her nuclear ambitions.

Hezbollah had a standing armed force of as many as 50,000 fighters, and an arsenal upwards of 150,000 rockets that included short and medium range rockets, cruise missiles, ballistic missiles and drones.

In Six Weeks, Israel Has Eliminated As Many Wanted Terrorists as the US Has Done in the Last 20 Years  

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?

Daniel Greenfield | Sept 29, 2024

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.

Mudar Tweets: “The King of Jordan is an enemy of the Palestinian people.”  

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.

The Gaza Terror Offensive 22 – 28 September 2024  

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   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).

Hezbollah Knockout. Israel Just Changed the Middle East & the World  

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.

Exploit This Opening  

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.

INTO THE FRAY: Kamala’s unsavory supporters  

By MARTIN SHERMAN

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!

The most important day in the Middle East since the Abraham Accords breakthrough  

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.

Netanyahu: ‘I gave the directive – and Nasrallah is no longer with us’  

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.

By

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.”

Irangate: Iran’s Plan to Stop Trump and Elect Kamala  

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.

Who’s Funding Carlson’s Anti-Israel Rhetoric  

Awesome Jew | Sept 25, 2024

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.

Deception 1: The Name Deception  

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.
