The Democratic Party is now irretrievably the party of Leftwing radicals, the so-called progressives whose behavior should better be described as fatally regressive.

What once united Republicans and Democrats, Conservatives and Liberals has disappeared. Gone are the days when secure borders, national sovereignty, religious freedom along with national pride were a shared American value, instead all came under a sustained and deliberate attack during the eight long years of the Barack Hussein Obama regime. He proclaimed that he had come to transform America and so many cheered loudly.

US Secretary of State Antony Blinken was left exposed on Tuesday when Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu revealed how the former had promised to work day and night to remove the US ban on the supply of deadly weapons to Israel.

Rifat Jawaid in his analysis says that this is the most explicit evidence to conclude that Blinken and USA simply can’t be trusted as honest brokers of peace in the Middle East.

What I will provide here is an overview – a brief background and description of our current situation with regard to Hezbollah, which is vastly complex. It is evolving and there are no final answers yet.

The last war between Israel and Hezbollah, in 2006, ended with UN Security Council Resolution 1701. According to its terms, Hezbollah had to be disarmed and pull back behind the Litani River, roughly 18 miles north of the Israeli border. The Lebanese army was to deploy in southern Lebanon. An enlarged United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL) was mandated with ensuring stability in the area. This included securing a south Lebanon “free of any armed personnel, assets and weapons, other than those of the Government of Lebanon and of UNIFIL.”

Pope Francis met with 100 left-wing comedians like Whoopi Goldberg, Jimmy Fallon and Stephen Colbert and thanked them for their wisdom.

“I look with esteem at you artists who express yourselves in the language of comedy, humor, irony. How much wisdom is there! How much we need to learn from you! Your jokes make God smile.”

When Israel took out a top Hamas terrorist, Hady Amr warned that “every Israeli” would pay. And that America would too.

That was less than a year after 9/11. By Oct 7, when Hamas launched its murderous ethnic cleansing assault, Amr had become Biden’s Special Envoy to the ‘Palestinians’.

Formerly employed by a Qatari front group, a state sponsor of Hamas, Amr, a Muslim immigrant who grew up in Saudi Arabia, had advocated for a deal with Hamas.

Peloni:  Dr. Paul Alexander, a former member of Trump’s White House, discusses the attempt for Fauci, Collins, Redfield and Birx to shift the blame for their action onto Trump.  He explains that this is an attempt by them to dodge responsibility for their crimes and avoid any legal remedy being brought against them.  There is a great deal of concern that the crimes which were committed in the name of Covid and the countless lives which were either left permanently challenged or simply ended due to the shots or Covid policies will simply be seen as a crime too great to punish.  In fact there must be accountability for the Covid crimes, and the list of Fauci, Collins, Redfield and Birx are but a few of those whose actions facilitated the Scamdemic and who must be judged for the crimes which have cost all so dearly.

Peloni:  Gen. Avivi discusses many important topics in this war, including his input on the General staff.  He also discusses the effect being created by Gantz’ departure, and how the members of the IDSF view the potential of a war in the North with Hezbollah, the answer of which may surprise you.

Peloni:  This is the sort of pre-picked, political skullduggery which the MAGA movement has been  motivated to eliminate from Washington.  In fact, it is important to have such string pulling shenanigans exposed, if for no greater purpose than to understand which of the MAGA front bull pen give voice to supporting a return to govt by the will of the people, while acting to simply change out the Dem Uniparty selectees for RINO Uniparty selectees.  This simply further characterizes Kirk whose tweeted support for Candace Owens following one of her recent antisemitic rants, which was later followed by Kirk’s disturbingly false assertion that passing a recent Congressional bill condemning antisemitism would “make parts of the Bible illegal”.

It is a very unfortunate situation any time you can easily spot manipulation that is taking place on behalf of hidden interests.

In this example today TPUSA was pushing the results of a poll from this past weekend.

Charlie Kirk and his organization claim that JD Vance won the straw poll of 1,600 attendees to the TPUSA event. However, as quickly identified, the only options presented to the audience were JD Vance, Marco Rubio, Tim Scott and Gary Burgum.  Somewhat of a self-fulfilling presentation.

The inflation of the last three years has been devastating for households and businesses running on small margins. It’s all the more frustrating that during those years, we kept being told that it is transitory, softening, calming, cooling, settling down, and essentially not much of a problem anymore. We look back and know now that it was never true.

Peloni:  The disturbing revelations continue to seep into the public view, even as those members of the IDF and Intel leadership whose gross mismanagement led to the October 7 slaughter have elected to mostly maintain their positions thru til the end of the current war, as if they are arguing that their gross mismanagement thus far might in someway be countenanced as an asset.

An intelligence document distributed by the IDF described in detail the raid plan for the border area, including the exact number of hostages. The information was passed to the Gaza Division – and completely ignored.

Kan reports that intelligence documents in the possession of the Gaza Division and the Intelligence Corps showed the plans for the October 7th massacre in minute detail, and were distributed less than three weeks before the invasion.

Security officials added that the document was known to the top intelligence echelon, and at the very least to the Gaza Division.

Since the 1960s, the military-industrial complex has influenced and driven American policy to profit cynically from conflict and war.  But in this decade, a new complex has arrived, one that is far more dangerous to American values.  It is the censorship-industrial complex (CIC), which has gained tremendous control over the internet.

When the internet-backed World Wide Web was created in 1989, it democratized information and connectedness.  Through rapid commercialization, it unleashed unlimited possibilities and economic growth.  Equally, it became a haven of free expression, debate, and creativity.  These ideals crystallized into the five principles of the 2012 Declaration of Internet Freedom: non-censorship; universal access; freedom to connect and create; the right to privacy and control of personal information; and protection for technology and innovation.

I recently critiqued an interview of Prof Jeffrey Sachs by Judge Napolitano on US policy on Gaza.

The Judge started out by referring to ”the slaughter that was going on in Gaza”. How can he be so ignorant? It has been proven repeatedly that there is no slaughter or genocide in Gaza. In fact Israel has the lowest kill ratio of any war previously by a factor of at least five.

Surprisingly, he spoke respectfully about Ben Gvir and Smotrich.

• The federal tendency runs counter to the European political tradition based on national sovereignty. In fact, Western Europe, the heartland of the EU, is the birthplace of the very concept of the nation-state, built on the ruins of various empires, a model subsequently adopted by almost all other countries.

As Europeans have increasingly turned to the right, with the electoral victories of Geert Wilders’ Party for Freedom in the Netherlands, of Giorgia Meloni’s Fratelli d’Italia in Italy, of Marine Le Pen and Jordan Bardella’s National Rally in France, and of Alice Weidel’s Alternative für Deutschland in Germany, Israel should unembarrassedly make common cause with these leaders and parties, all of which have expressed stout support for Israel. The increased popularity of these parties is due mainly to their firm stance against continued Muslim migration into their countries, a stance that has caused them to be labelled, quite unfairly, as “far-right.”

The Prime Minister has decided to dissolve the War Cabinet and decisions will instead be made by the Security Cabinet.

Israel National News  Jun 17, 2024, 11:20 AM 

Peloni:  It is bad enough that the US and UN believe that they should have a greater input into Israel’s governing than the duly elected Israel govt, but for the leadership of the IDF to act upon these beliefs portrays an altogether greater problem for Israel.  As the Israeli govt is already encumbered by a Supreme Court which takes its directives from whims of fancy which are based on non-national interests, the move for the leadership of the IDF to embark on a similar outrage in a midst of a war stretches credulity beyond the breaking point.  This outrage should be recognized as being ever greater by the fact that the US and UN are allied against the war aims set by the Israeli govt.  The concerns extending from this report would notably include the many questions which have arisen as to the motivations surrounding the actions by the leadership of the IDF in connection to the massive policy failures which led to the October 7 slaughter, details about which we are still not permitted to know more than the investigative reports which are independently obtained in the press.

Political source says PM Netanyahu was surprised by IDF announcement of 11-hour ‘tactical pauses’ every day near Kerem Shalom Crossing.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Yoav Gallant were not informed in advance of the IDF’s decision to announce daily ‘tactical pauses’ near the Kerem Shalom Crossing.

A political official said after the IDF’s announcement: “When the Prime Minister heard the reports in the morning about a humanitarian pause for 11 hours a day, he contacted his military secretary and made it clear that this was unacceptable to him. Following an inquiry, the Prime Minister was informed that there is no change in IDF policy and that the fighting in Rafah is continuing as planned.”

In a significant escalation, Hezbollah pummeled northern Israel on Wednesday with more than 200 rockets in the terror group’s largest single-day attack since the start of the war in Gaza. The barrage came the day after the Israel Defense Forces killed Taleb Sami Abdullah, a senior Hezbollah commander, in southern Lebanon.

Israel and the Iran-backed terrorist organization have traded almost daily blows for months, but the frequency and seriousness of these attacks have escalated in recent weeks. If the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL) does not execute its mandated mission by stopping Hezbollah attacks on Israel and ensuring the group withdraws north of the Litani River, the steadily intensifying violence on Israel’s northern border could become a full-scale war with massive loss of life.
