Peloni: The terrible consequences of this collusion were far reaching and unfortunately continue to this day.
Former Attorney General Avichai Mandelblit colluded in 2015 with then-Israel Bar Association chairman Effi Naveh in order to win the nomination for attorney general despite legal hurdles, recordings showed.

Peloni: It is impossible to ignore the fact that as NATO is willing to fight in Ukraine to the last Ukrainian, the Europeans are decidedly poised to fight in Europe to the last American. While the grift referenced by Stephen below is in part funding huge profits for the US Military Industrial Complex (MIC), this will not translate into American popular support for war in Europe. But then again, as America has recently demonstrated a lack of interest in accepting electoral results, it would appear that only the American Elites and Oligarchs would need to be swayed to come to Europe’s defense, thus demonstrating the racket to which Butler cited in his well documented complaints a hundred years ago. Indeed, if Europe enters a war with Russia, their only hope is to see this racket continue, and I doubt the war weary Americans will be so compliant as the were the war weary Ukrainians as the expendable commodity in the continuation of this rack.
Expanding NATO is risky for the United States

Maj. General Smedley Butler
In 1935 retired Marine General and two-time Medal of Honor winner Smedley Butler published a 55 page pamphlet that caused a sensation. It was reprinted in Reader’s Digest assuring a mass circulation. The pamphlet was called “War is a Racket.”
Butler summarized his argument this way: “War is a racket. It always has been. It is possibly the oldest, easily the most profitable, surely the most vicious. It is the only one international in scope. It is the only one in which the profits are reckoned in dollars and the losses in lives. A racket is best described, I believe, as something that is not what it seems to the majority of the people. Only a small “inside” group knows what it is about. It is conducted for the benefit of the very few, at the expense of the very many. Out of war a few people make huge fortunes.”
Peloni: Hamas is a self documented organization of rapists, butchers, and kidnappers of innocent civilians. Their lust for carnage was so great that they were drawn to document their profligate acts so that they could vicariously re-live them over and over again. By any standard, and any definition, these facts would place Hamas outside the realm of civilized men. They truly embody all that can be derived from the term “barbarians”. The attempt by their defenders, their allies, and the international community at large to normalize these promoters of perfidy exposes how easily the modern world is capable of retrograding to the darkest chapters of history in pursuit of satiating the Oldest Hatred. As such, the normalization of these Islamic degenerates stands as a crime unto itself, one which is being so readily supported by the leading voices throughout the world. Hence, the entire conversation of international law would seem quite moot as the subject applies to the Jews, as international law has been redefined such that the Jews must always be seen to be the criminal force in their own slaughter.
“Let reason go before every enterprise and counsel before any action.” Ecclesiastes 32:23
At time of writing, negotiations between Israel and Hamas on a potential “ceasefire” are seemingly set to continue despite Hezbollah’s attempted attack on Israel followed by massive rocket fire and statements by officials that the ceasefire talks are near collapse.
Even if an agreement is reached, however, it will almost certainly fail because Hamas still regards all of Israel as “Occupied Palestine.” For both Israel and the “international community,” there would be injurious consequences for international justice. Some of these consequences would be “force-multiplying” and irremediable.

When all my conservative friends suddenly start sending me texts and emails telling me that I must watch a video, I take that seriously. That was the case with a video that Tulsi Gabbard published yesterday on X detailing how the Harris-Biden administration has been using law enforcement, the DOJ, and a completely complicit media to silence (and, if possible, destroy) anyone who threatens the Democrat party’s hold on power.
T. Belman. This interview is spellbinding. Its over one hour long but I couldn’t stop watching it. Francisco is brilliant.

People throw around words like Federal debt, Federal deficit and the Federal Reserve – but frankly, I don’t think most of us understand what it really means, how it got that way, who is responsible, who we actually owe money to and how to fix it.

Peloni: Political violence is inconsistent with democracy. They are in fact mutually exclusive concepts. Hence by capitulating to the demands of the mob, the UK is surrendering more than the interests of the UK, but its entire claim of upholding the democratic rights due to all of its citizens.

How have we allowed ourselves to revert back to the toxicity of political opposition that prevailed on October 6th last year, playing into the hands of our enemies?
Douglas Altabef INN:DA
These are difficult and frustrating days for Israel. We seem to be dithering in Gaza, absorbing body blows in the North, and are increasingly becoming more contentious, divisive and disruptive in the prioritization of our efforts.
There are those who want to make sure that we are doing everything, absolutely everything, we can to free our hostages. This overarching desire often does not confront the reality of what such a priority would entail.
Peloni: Daniel speaks directly to the heart of the problem which extends from the Censorship Industry overtaking what was once termed the Free World, and which might be better described today as the Enslaved World. Indeed, the Western world has adopted bizarre precepts in which elections aren’t meaningful and liberties are selectively permitted, which by any definition should be understood to represent the fact that the related democracies have fallen. Tyranny in the pursuit of Right-think has transitioned these democratic nations to accommodate a wholly illiberal infrastructure of election fraud and censorship which only the most deceived or most deceptive could fairly maintain any belief in the notion that democracy still reigns.
Freedom is disappearing across the free world.
Daniel Greenfield | Sept 6, 2024
Over the last five years, American, British, Canadian and Brazilian governments unleashed unprecedented waves of repression against political opponents using martial law, military occupations of major cities, government censorship of the internet, nationwide manhunts, televised raids and extended detentions without trial. Most of those arrested were guilty of political speech and protests generally far less violent than leftist riots by regime supporters.

With demands that Israel leave Gaza’s Philadelphi Corridor and limit its operations in the West Bank, UN Secretary-General António Guterres has called on the Jewish State “to comply with its relevant obligations,” adding that “only an end to the occupation… will bring an end to the violence.”
U.S. citizen Hersh Goldberg-Polin, 23, was executed by Hamas in late August after being taken hostage from an Israeli music festival and held in Gaza for more than 300 days. In response, a bipartisan roster of U.S. officials immediately pledged to hold Hamas accountable. On August 31, 2024, President Joe Biden issued a statement saying, “Make no mistake, Hamas leaders will pay for these crimes,” while Vice President Kamala Harris issued a statement saying, “The threat Hamas poses to the people of Israel—and American citizens in Israel—must be eliminated and Hamas cannot control Gaza.” On September 1, 2024, Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin vowed that “Hamas will be held accountable.”
Washington policymakers should make good on these promises in the following ways:

Until now, we have believed that on October 7, 3,000 members of Hamas, accompanied by a few hundred ordinary Gazans eager to join in the murderous fun, smashed into Israel and proceeded to rape, torture, mutilate, and murder 1,200 Israelis and to kidnap 251 more, who were dragged back to Gaza on the back of lorries, in cars, and on motorbikes. Now the IDF has revised that figure upward, suggesting that the total number of Gazans who took part was 6,000, double what was previously believed. Of those, not 3,000, but 3,800 were Hamas members, and not a “few hundred,” but rather, 2,200 Gazans who were not members of Hamas enthusiastically joined in the rapes, tortures, and murders of Israelis that were committed that day. 1,000 others were involved in firing rockets from Gaza into Israel. More on this revision upward can be found here: “Report: New IDF assessment shows some 6,000 Gazans invaded Israel on Oct. 7,” Times of Israel, August 31, 2024:
People are realizing that the pre Oct. 6th protest movement was not really about judicial reform and the protest movement today is not really about saving the hostages.

We are navigating through a profound moment of pain and change, but despite the immense sadness and the attempts by some to sow division among us, the reality today is markedly different and more promising than in the days just before and after October 7th.
The tragic events of October 7th did indeed shatter us, but they also awakened many to a crucial understanding that too many Jews and Israelis have ignored for decades, that we are up against a genocidal enemy called the “palestinian national identity”.
