T. Belman. Col Macgregor says Israel will defeat Hezbollah and may even use Tactical Nuclear Weapons to do so in order to limit the damage Hezbollah can visit upon Israel.  Once this happens it is probable that we will have a regional war at a minimum. Iran will probably try to help Hezbollah with troops and munitions and Israel will probably attack Iran to put an end to their nuclear program at a minum and maybe an end to the regime itself. It is likely that Russia will help Iran and so on. And Turkey may join in.

Meanwhile the US is trying to prevent this from happening. She fears a regional war because they will not win it. The US don’t have enough of anything. According to him, Netanyahu is betting on the US helping Israel.

Macgregor thinks the US should put an end to this war as soon as possible.. But doesn’t think they will.

Why history is repeating itself on campus.

The Nazi cheers of Sieg Heil didn’t start out in Munich, but in Massachusetts.

The Nazi chant was borrowed from Harvard football cheers and imported to Germany by Ernst “Putzy” Hanfstaengl, a Harvard man in good standing who befriended Hitler and helped build a more respectable brand for the National Socialists.

T. Belman. For Ettinger, the only issue is whether Israel can defy the US. I take that as a given, but for me, the issue is, is State Dept, Guterres, Macgregor andc Sachs wrong to worry about a regional war that the US can’t win. Or can they?

The question of who will dominate the Indian Ocean—powers committed to values of moderation and restraint, or powers committed to fundamentalism and fanaticism—is one that must be seriously addressed

Martin Sherman  | June 24, 2024

The following essay is not intended to be a comprehensive tour d’horizon of the post-independence evolution of the relations between Israel and India, nor even of the overall scope of defense ties that have developed so rapidly since the early 1990s. Rather, it has a narrower focus: The importance that the maritime theater—i.e. the Indian Ocean and its adjacent waters—has for both countries and the scope of cooperation and potential benefits that could accrue to both from close collaboration in this sphere.

However, some deference to the wider general context cannot be totally avoided.

Wikileaks Founder Released from London Prison Heading Back to Australia

Sundance | June 25, 2024

With an announcement of his departure from prison, many people are excited about the possibility of Wikileaks founder Julian Assange revealing information about the Obama/Biden surveillance state. I would urge everyone to temper those sentiments.

The Biden DOJ is a malicious leftist political targeting machine, with only one intention carried out with the Lawfare that underpins their mission. Main Justice, and especially the DOJ National Security Division within the DOJ, is the center of all corrupt justice operations.

401st Brigade Raids Hamas Training Sites in Rafah Area, Finding Weapons and Tunnel Shafts: On Sunday, troops from the IDF’s 162nd Division were continuing operations in the Rafah area. During “precise, intelligence-based operations,” the division’s 401st Armored Brigade destroyed the Abu Said compound, which Hamas’s Tel Sultan Battalion used for training. Troops also found tunnel shafts and weapons storage facilities as well as the office of battalion commander Mahmoud Hamdan and the office of Hamas commander Yasser Natat, who was in charge of Rafah Brigade rocket fire against Israel and soldiers in Gaza. The 401st Brigade also carried out another operation in a Hamas training complex, finding tunnel shafts used for attacking IDF troops as well as a large quantity of weapons and intelligence documents.

Israel, unlike the United States, has demonstrated its resolve to respond with force to each and every attack against it by Iran or its proxies. However, it is not just Israel’s willingness to use force that is noteworthy but its disposition to do so in a way that coerces and constrains Iranian power.

The United States should learn from Israel’s approach, particularly its April 19 strike inside Iran, and apply, together with Israel, a coercive strategy that seeks to constrain, degrade, and eventually collapse the Iranian regime.

The Biden administration has only recently come around to appreciate this approach when it took out an Iranian proxy commander in response to Iran’s January 28 drone attack that killed three U.S. servicemembers. Since then, Iran appears to have paused attacks against U.S. personnel. Up until that point, the United States had responded to Iranian proxy escalation by striking token weapons depots and killing low-level Iranian military bystanders, describing each response as “self-defense.” Unsurprisingly, those responses only encouraged Iranian escalation.

Tensions on Israel’s northern border are currently at their highest point since the outbreak of hostilities in October last year. On Friday, United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres said: ‘One rash move – one miscalculation – could trigger a catastrophe that goes far beyond the border, and frankly, beyond imagination.’

The latest reports indicate that the US has declared it will give Israel its ‘full support’ in the event of war with Hezbollah. This appears to go hand in hand, however, with an American determination to prevent any Israeli action which might precipitate such a war. So what is the current situation? And where are things heading?

Peloni:  Before watching this video, you might consider if you are ready to hear the truth.  Here are a few tests to answer that question:

“Behind who’s censoring what your children can read in K thru 12 schools is the head of the CIA, the head of the NSA, the head of the military, the head of NATO, the head of the State Dept and the head of DHS…”

“Once they got away with it for the 2020 election and Covid, they expanded this to climate, they expanded this to abortion, they expanded this to immigration, they expanded this to Ukraine.  Any dissident voice on any sensitive policy issue was deemed to be an attack on critical infrastructure if you expressed misinformation online about it… “

“When you say they, is it the Democrats or the Republicans?  It is the Empire rather than the Homeland.  It is the peoples whose jobs are in the managerial class of our international relations rather than those whose are in the domestic priorities of the homeland.”

“[Their agenda] is so much worse than [nefarious] because it actually ends the idea of America.”

“The Censorship Industry in this country was formed around the cover of Russiagate.  All the domestic censorship that was done around the 2020 election and for Covid 19 and for Climate issues and for abortion issues and immigration and Ukraine was laundered in thru that first predicate that Russia had rigged the 2016 election by all of its influence over US social media, and it is important to substantiate that that was a totally  unsubstantiated lie.”

Highly recommended viewing.

Amid increasingly violent cross-border exchanges of fire between Israel and Hezbollah in Lebanon, and growing fears of a full-scale war, Hezbollah chief Hassan Nasrallah last week threatened to attack Cyprus if the Mediterranean island made its military bases available to Israel.

Washington has cautioned Israel against any escalation that might encourage other Iran-backed Shiite militias from Afghanistan, Iraq, Yemen, and Syria to join in, but that warning poses questions: What would the US advise European capitals to do if Nasrallah threatened them over any disagreements they might have with Tehran? And who will guarantee that Tehran, once it produces nuclear weapons, will not threaten to use them against Cyprus or the rest of Europe?

Peloni: The authoritarians in Washington are terrified of losing their unconstitutionally adopted autocratic authorities. The greatest challenge to the Deep State’s hold on power is coming in November’s election, and they have made every effort, while still failing, to forestall the inevitable return of Trump to even participate in that election.  The balance of victory in November is all that stands between the continued rule of the unelected beaurocrats and the rule by consent of the governed.  This is why these coming months are likely to be more chaotic and more challenging than even what we have see thus far from the Deep State as they make every effort to preserve their beaurocratic choke-hold on controlling the American people.

Jeffrey A. Tucker. | June 24, 2024

You know the term “authoritarian.” You think you know what it means.

An authoritarian dad, boss, or government says: my way or the highway. They are forever barking orders and see compliance as the answer to all human problems. There is no room for uncertainty, adaptation to time and place, or negotiation. It’s ruling by personal dictate while tolerating no dissent.

To be authoritarian is to be inhumane, to rule with arbitrary and capricious imposition. It can also mean to be ruled impersonally by a machine regardless of the cost.

Fountainhead – noun as in principal source; person who originates – administrator, builder, creator, originator, leader….

Ayn Rand’s novel, The Fountainhead, published in 1943, has been read by millions of people over the years (37 million books sold).  The truncated film version, released in 1949, has been seen by millions of people as well.

Of course, the left has always hated Rand, her books and the films based on them.  Her philosophy is a celebration of individualism, a testament to gifted and talented men and women who are able to remain true to themselves in a world that reveres and celebrates mediocrity. Ayn Rand was born in Russia in 1905, and educated there; she was twelve years old during the Bolshevik Revolution.  She emigrated to the U.S. in 1926.

The War on Warriors. Behind the Betrayal of the Men Who Keep Us Free by Pete Hegseth discusses the betrayal of those serving. He uses his own experiences, plus others who served, to show what is happening today. Hegseth is a co-host of Fox & Friends Weekend, an Army veteran of the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq and was also a guard at Guantanamo Bay. He holds two Bronze Stars and a Combat Infantryman’s Badge for his time in Iraq and Afghanistan.

The book talks about how the military brass are no different than the rest of our country emphasizing cultural chaos and weakness, how a woke socialist influence has removed essential core values. The book delves deeply into the political and cultural forces that have undermined the morale and effectiveness of U.S. armed forces, revealing the shocking truth behind the betrayal of the men and women who risk their lives to protect American freedoms.

Peloni: The deployment of these Jew-Hate bully brute squads to the streets of LA is yet a further evidence of the maliciously antisemitic posture accepted by the Democratic Party whose donors were knowingly responsible for financing the campus violence campaign over the past months.  The demonstration of the authoritarian credo “To my friends, everything, and to my enemies, the Law” should be a stark message to every Jew in America.  This is not about politics, it isn’t about Trump, it is about your safety and the survival of your loved ones.  The Jews of America are under threat, and those in the Democratic party which have been viewed to be either allies or benefactors or representatives have demonstrated that they are in fact the enemies of the Jewish people.  The Jews of America, regardless of their political views, must come to terms with this fact, regardless of how difficult it might be, and act upon it.

While it is good to see the Jewish community acting in its own defense on the streets, the American Jews must come to accept that they must do the same on the political field.  Failing to do so will only see such scenes as those below come about much more often with much greater consequences.

With the complicity of local Los Angeles authorities.

Daniel Greenfield | June 24, 2024

Some people are calling this a “pogrom”. It was at best a low-level riot against Jews by Islamic terrorist supporters and Antifa with the complicity of local Los Angeles authorities. I have an article with more to say about it, but the videos speak for themselves.

The target was Congregation Adas Torah (Congregation of the Bible) but the pro-terror rally spread out to two adjoining synagogues and then the violence spread out past Kosher restaurants, a Jewish school and to nearby residential streets on both sides of Pico Blvd in the Pico Robertson neighborhood where the Hamas rioters freely attacked Jews.

An Israeli cabinet minister whose responsibilities include supervising Israeli-controlled parts of Judea-Samaria has instituted a minor administrative change in those areas, a change that is permitted by the Oslo Accords.

So what’s the problem?

In a faux expose last week, the New York Times claimed to have uncovered a “stealthy” Israeli conspiracy to annex “the West Bank.”

The problem is it’s not stealthy, it’s not a conspiracy, and it only impacts the portions of Judea-Samaria that the Palestinian Authority (PA) agreed, at Oslo, can be run by Israel in any way it sees fit.
