Islam; the Why and How it Differs from our Judeo-Christian Heritage  

Peloni:  Nice analysis of the dichotomy which exists between Islam and Judeo-Christian Heritage.  Well Done!

Dr. Norman Berdichevsky 

What is meant by “Our Judeo-Christian-Heritage”? What upset both many Jews and Christians when President Obama reversed the order traditionally used by public figures and spoke of the United States as “A Country of Christians and Muslims,”? Is not Islam one of the “Three Abrahamic Religions” as many Muslims claim? Both terms stress the importance of integrating new knowledge into an acceptable framework that confirms a group’s most cherished values.

The Torah and the Constitution were elevated by Jews and Americans respectively as the final recourse and supreme arbiter of political disputes and moral conflicts. The “LAW” rather than any President or King was acknowledged as the source of power in the state.

Donald Trump Versus American Socialists  

Peloni:  Markovsky expertly describes the situation as it exists within the Democratic Party and its turn towards insanity, Marxism and totalitarianism.

By Alexander G. Markovsky | July 20, 2024

Image: YouTube screen grab (edited).

Robert Kennedy Jr. stated that Biden is more dangerous to democracy than Donald Trump. Robert is misguided; Biden is senile and does not pose a threat to anyone. It’s the entire Democrat party that’s the greatest threat to our democracy.

During the 1960 presidential debates, Robert’s uncle, John Kennedy, highlighted the ideological difference between the Democrat and Republican parties. “We have a different philosophy for achieving the same objectives,” he said (emphasis added).

The Looming Hezbollah Deterrence Problem  

Seth Frantzman | July 2024

Hezbollah fired rockets at Israel on Wednesday, July 17, setting off alarms in the coastal city of Nahariya and surrounding communities. It was one of a series of daily attacks carried out by Hezbollah. The Iranian-backed terrorist group has launched more than 5,000 attacks on Israel since 7 October, using rockets, missiles and drones. The attacks occur along Israel’s northern border, but they have become more deadly in recent weeks. Israel evacuated around 80,000 people from the border in October due to the attacks. However, civilians and soldiers continue to be harmed by Hezbollah’s endless assaults.

Now That He’s Quit the Race . . .  

by  | July 22, 2024

Old Joe Biden has now bowed to pressure from Democrat top dogs and dropped out of the race. So why is this man still president of the United States?

The contradiction is clear in the statement Biden’s handlers wrote in his name, withdrawing his candidacy: “It has been the greatest honor of my life to serve as your President. And while it has been my intention to seek reelection, I believe it is in the best interest of my party and the country” — note the order of priority: party first, country second — “for me to stand down and to focus solely on fulfilling my duties as President for the remainder of my term.”

European Union Is Funding Iranian Aggression?  

by Majid Rafizadeh  •  July 20, 2024

Iran’s strategy is aimed at ultimately annihilating not only Israel but also oil-rich Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates. The continued funding of Iran’s regime by the EU is crucial in bolstering Iran’s ability to attack its neighbors and US troops in the region, both directly and through its proxies — Hamas, Hezbollah, Palestinian Islamic Jihad and the Houthis — and to accelerate enriching uranium to complete its nuclear weapons program.

Biden Drops Out – Endorses Kamala  

Peloni: Trump response to Biden’s announcement: “Crooked Joe Biden was not fit to run for President, and is certainly not fit to serve – And never was!  He only attained the position of President by lies, Fake News, and not leaving his Basement.”

J. D. Vance’s astonishing journey to the top of Republicanism  

J.D. Vance’s extraordinary journey from a harsh childhood to being the Republican vice-presidential nominee highlights resilience, family influence, and the potential for transformative leadership.

By DOUGLAS ALTABEF | JULY 21, 2024

An extraordinarily difficult childhood was the crucible for the man who someday might become the leader of the free world. Few have as much cringe worthiness and random nuttiness as does the amazing coming of age story of J. D. Vance, the recently nominated Republican candidate for vice president of the United States.

Israel’s Response to Terror  

by Nils A. Haug  | Gatestone Institute | July 18, 2024

Despite Israel’s compliance with humanitarian concerns, rules of war, and attempts to avoid Palestinian civilian deaths, the perception remains that Israel should be the one to make concessions for a ceasefire, not Hamas, which should immediately release the hostages it took. Hamas, like other Islamic groups from a different culture, does not accede to the West’s laws of war – this much is clear from their treatment of hostages.

  • Hamas, designated a terror group by Western nations, is an Islamist fundamentalist group whose 1988 Covenant openly supports a Sharia law-based paradisical Caliphate free of non-believers and a world free of Jews (end of Article 7).

Who ordered the hit?  

Tierney Real News | July 19, 2024

Since the CIA was formed in 1947 as an independent spy agency, there have been numerous political assassinations, attempted assassinations, coups and roughly 30 mass shootings in America. Do you think that’s a coincidence? I do not.

In the 1960’s, four major political assassinations – John F. Kennedy by Lee Harvey Oswald, Martin Luther King by James Earl Ray, Robert Kennedy by Sirhan Sirhan and Malcolm X by Muhammad A. Aziz – were all immediately ruled by US intelligence as carried out by “lone gunmen” with personal, not political, motives and no connections to the US Government. Right.

The Second Shooter Theory Gains Momentum  

Rush to Judgement

Stephen Bryen | Weapons & Security | July 20, 2024

In my first analysis of the attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania I pointed out the possibility of a second shooter.  Since my essay was published last Monday, July 15th, more voices have been heard on the possibility of a second shooter.  The FBI and Secret Service insist there was only one shooter and have made no attempt to investigate beyond looking into the background of Thomas Crooks, the 20 year old shooter who was taken out by a Secret Service sniper.
