Latest Developments

Israeli media reported on September 18 that the week-long ceasefire in November — which saw Hamas release 81 Israeli hostages — collapsed after the terrorist group relayed false information about the captives it was due to release on the eighth day of the deal. Hamas was reportedly supposed to free 10 living hostages on that day but instead offered to return three living hostages and seven bodies. Among the purported dead were female hostages that Israel “knew for certain” were alive, indicating that Hamas would execute the women if Israel agreed to the terror group’s updated terms.

A few thoughts on Operation Grim Beeper.

1) This is one of the most astonishing intelligence operations in history. It is a reworking of the story of the Trojan Horse for the digital age, and it deserves to become nearly as legendary as its iconic predecessor. If we are not…

America and its citizens have witnessed a betrayal in our blessed country for several decades. Hostile acts by foreign and domestic enemies have focused on fundamentally changing America forever and dismantling its traditions, values, and rights so eloquently stated in our Constitution and Bill of Rights.

Our freedoms have been eroded by a corrupt federal government that has politicized and weaponized government agencies with actions against our citizens. In August 2016, then CIA Director John Brennan briefed Barack Hussein Obama, Joe Biden, and other senior Administration officials about Hillary Clinton’s game plan to steal the 2016 election from Trump, which the FBI later called Crossfire Hurricane.

Israel just carried out the most pinpoint anti-terrorism operation in history, and its enemies are still complaining. Which suggests that their complaints have nothing to do with humanitarianism and everything to do with hating Israel. Also, none of this would be necessary if… pic.twitter.com/Dy7Fjnz8bm

As Azerbaijan celebrates its liberation and rebuilds from decades of occupation, its unwavering friendship with Israel shines as a beacon of mutual respect.

Today’s grotesque endeavors to justify Hamas’s bestial barbarism should be repudiated and ridiculed.

 “We will tear down the border and we will tear out their hearts from their bodies [and]…eat the livers”  Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar April 6, 2018. 

It would be so nice if something made sense for a change – ? Lewis Carroll, Alice in Wonderland.

Ever since the appalling atrocities perpetrated last October by the Islamo-fascist terror organization, Hamas, it seems that all criteria of decency, and rationality along with accepted standards of good and evil, have been turned on their head. Political activism, generally geared toward promoting gender equality and socio-cultural tolerance, has been thrown jarringly into reverse gear.

The exploding pagers that reportedly wounded thousands of Hezbollah terrorists came within 3 days of the 40th anniversary of the Islamic terrorist group’s attack on an American embassy.

On September 20, 1984, a Hezbollah terrorist drove a Chevy station wagon fitted with diplomatic plates and Soviet rockets at the US embassy in Beirut and detonated it, wounding the US ambassador and killing two Americans, Chief Warrant Officer Kenneth V. Welch and Petty Officer First Class Michael Ray Wagner, while wounding five other Americans.

Before and after a mandatory vaccine

After finishing the first part of the DMSO series (which explains how millions of permanent disabilities and deaths from strokes, traumatic brain injuries and spinal cord injuries could have been prevented if the FDA hadn’t blacklisted DMSO), I decided to take a technology break. However, as I was drifting to bed last night, a lot of people began contacting me about a disaster that was unfolding in California.

Peloni:  We have been sharing the intelligence Tweets posted by Rabbi Herzog’s over the past weeks, in which he is careful to commonly remind us that these are sourced information rather than prophetic predictions.  In any event, here is a report dated a few years ago which details Herzog’s journey to Saudi Arabia and his hopes at the time for the future of his enterprise.

Rabbi Herzog, a 46-year-old American-Israeli rabbi who made aliyah from the US as a child, thought of traveling to Saudi Arabia only four years ago.

Many Jews visited the Saudi Arabian city of Jeddah last weekend, mainly because of the summit between US President Joe Biden and the kingdom’s Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman. Behind the scenes, there was also an American-Israeli rabbi who made kiddush for the participants, mainly journalists and advisers of government officials who spent Shabbat in Saudi Arabia.

Rigging thousands of pagers worn and used by Hezbollah terrorists and operatives in Lebanon, Syria, and other northern locations surrounding Israel to explode simultaneously, signifies even now only a sliver of insight into Israel’s offensive capabilities. With over 4000 terrorists injured simultaneously, many critically, the devastating psychological effect of the cyber-attack attributed to Israel on Hezbollah is only a pre-emptive stage in the expected war on the murderous terror organization in Lebanon. With the threat from Hamas largely destroyed and mopping up operations being executed by a relatively small IDF force in the Gaza Strip, the focus of Israel has shifted to the north. Hezbollah, the terror organization, and the Republic of Iran, a terror state have been put on notice.

The Palestinian Football Association really does influence what young people think … and do.

The members of the Palestinian Authority’s soccer team, currently training in Malaysia, recently posed for a team photo. It is a classic case of a picture being worth a thousand words—if not more.

Normal athletes all over the world pose for team photos in their uniforms, as keepsakes for themselves as well as for their fans. But the society that the P.A. has shaped is anything but normal.

This betrayal of Israel is embarrassing for any true supporter of Canada as well as of true Canadian values. It should be roundly condemned.

The concept of commonality of values has always been a steadfast principle in Canada’s relationships with its friends and allies.

Such commonality of values was perhaps voiced most clearly in an address by former prime minister Stephen Harper to Israel’s parliament – the Knesset – some years ago, in which he listed the historic and long-standing values shared by Canada and Israel. He ended his historic address by reiterating the vital message to Israel: “Canada will always have Israel’s back.”

Israel did not take responsibility for the pager attack that crippled Hezbollah’s comms and took out a chunk of their officer corps. It certainly did not go ahead and describe how it was done for the media. That’s tradecraft. And you don’t reveal it.

But the New York Times had a report detailing how it happened that same evening. I won’t link to it as it carries the byline of fake news fabulist Sheera Frenkel who had previously carried water for Hamas and lied that the Islamic terror group had not kidnapped and killed three Israeli teens.

For nearly a year, 60,000 Israelis living in the north have had to leave their homes because of constant rockets and drones launched by Hezbollah in Lebanon. The social and economic disruption has been considerable, even more than that from the continued displacement in the south of 40,000 Israelis on the Jewish state’s s border with Gaza. Defense Minister Yoav Gallant has said that the IDF, having destroyed so much of Hamas, should now turn its full attention to the north, and the threat from Hezbollah. Prime Minister Netanyahu, while recognizing that the situation in the north “cannot continue,” still appears to want to finish the job of dismantling Hamas in Gaza before moving on to deal forcefully with Hezbollah. More on Netanyahu’s view of the northern front can be found here: “Situation in North can’t continue, Netanyahu says ahead of Hochstein visit,” by Tovah Lazaroff, Jerusalem Post, September 15, 2024:

The cross-border violence between the IDF and Hezbollah in the North of the country “cannot continue,” Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said ahead of a meeting with US special envoy Amos Hochstein on Monday.

Let’s listen with our ears.

Pundits have been complaining in the last few days, somewhat understandably, that even under direct questioning, candidate Harris has failed to address what she would do about rampant inflation.

But she has, in fact, addressed the question.  She’s given an answer we need have no uncertainty about – or unclarity, for that matter.
