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.

Unyielding reality: why an Islamic Middle East rejects Israel

IRAN’S LATE SUPREME LEADER Ayatollah Ali Khamenei meets with Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran, last month. It doesn’t matter at all to Iran and Hamas if Israel agrees to political and territorial concessions, says the writer. (photo credit: Office of the Iranian Supreme Leader/West Asia News Agency/Reuters)

‘The hour of judgment shall not come until the Muslims fight the Jews, and kill them….”Sahih Muslim, Book 41, cited at The Charter of Hamas (1988)

Israel is loathed by its jihadist enemies because it is a Jewish state, not because it is Zionist. For these enemies, both state and sub-state, Israel is never more than the individual Jew writ large. It matters not at all to Iran, Hamas, Islamic Jihad, Hezbollah, etc., if Israel agrees to political compromises and territorial surrenders. For these recalcitrant foes, Muslims are still obligated to “fight the Jews, and kill them…” For them, a Jewish state in the Dar al Islam (the world of Islam) – any Jewish state – represents an inherently intolerable abomination.

THE West’s Ukrainian proxy war against Russia continues to go badly with Russian advances on all fronts and big Ukrainian troop losses. Even worse, the most belligerent political leaders (Biden, Macron and Sunak) are losing votes at home. French President Macron lost extremely badly in the European elections, with Marine Le Pen’s National Rallygarnering twice as many votes as Macron’s Renaissanceparty. This led Macron to call a snap general election, and there is talk of his resignation if he does not win.

T. Belman. The authors could have mentioned that weapons issued to the Egyptian army have been found on killed Hamas terrorists. They also could have mentioned Egypt’s refusal to allow refugee camps to be set up in Egypt was intended, among other things, to keep the Gazans bottled up uin Gaza

Antony Blinken has visited Cairo again. The U.S. secretary of state met with Egypt’s President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi on June 10 to talk about Israel, Hamas, hostages and the future of the Gaza Strip.

The Egyptian military, like Iran and Qatar, knows Hamas’s leadership well. This surely isn’t only because of proximity. Although neither Washington nor Jerusalem wants to say so, the Oct. 7 attack on Israel couldn’t have happened without the Egyptian army’s turning a blind eye to the shipment of arms and other materiel over and under the Egypt-Gaza border. Greed and anti-Zionist sympathies likely fed trade and ties between senior Egyptian officers and Hamas commanders.

Good or bad for the Jewish state?

Hugh Fitzgerald | June 24, 2024

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.”

Peloni:  The Uniparty has two wings, the Right and the Left, and neither has any respect for the public whose elections are being stolen.  It is good that Trump has finally gained control over the party, or most of it, but a question remains to be answered, Where was Trump’s Republican party during the election fraud which took place during the Lynchburg Va election, and how will they act now that this election was violated?  The answer to both of these questions have implications for November, as does the RINO candidate which won the election in question.

BREAKING: Poll watchers in Lynchburg, Virginia have released BOMBSHELL proof of fraud that took place in Tuesday's election. They were prevented from seeing mail-in ballot processing and records show ballot box seals broken and ballots counted without anyone watching

We cannot always prevent the murder of workers in an orchard or sleeping families, but we can set a high price for our blood. A price too high for the Arab settlement, the Arab army and the Arab government to pay. … [Retaliation operations] are not for vengeance. It is an act of punishment and warning, that if that state does not control its population and does not prevent them attacking us – the Israeli forces will cause havoc in its land.“

Sometimes we need to be reminded of who we are. This is particularly the case now, during this horrendous time when the world works incessantly to demean us, attack us in every way possible.

Actually, what has happened is that we have been challenged to our best.

Last week, a much-loved Senior Staff Sergeant Major Elon Waiss, an educator, a father of seven and grandfather of one little girl, was killed in Gaza. He was serving as a volunteer (i.e., he didn’t have to be there but was dedicated to serving Israel); he was due to return home for his daughter’s wedding.

“Senior US officials reassured a delegation of top Israeli officials visiting Washington this week that if a full-out war were to break out on
Israel’s northern border between Israel and Hezbollah, the Biden administration is fully prepared to back its ally, according to a senior
administration official.”

US offers assurances to Israel this week in the event of full-blown war with Hezbollah

By MJ Lee, CNN    Fri June 21, 2024

Here is why real US support for Israel means signing off, publicly, and in advance, on the civilian Lebanese losses required to destroy Hezbollah missiles:

#1. The Hezbollah missiles, when launched, will cause catastrophic damage to Israel both in life and limb and in the destruction of critical life supporting infrastructure.

Don’t look now but your First Amendment rights are up for negotiation at the United Nations, just as they are at the World Economic Forum and other globalist organizations that are aligned with the burgeoning one-world system.

On June 18, in recognition of International Day for Countering Hate Speech – yes, they actually have a day for that – the United Nations Secretary-General called for the eradication of “hate speech” around the world.

While that may sound nice in today’s world, where it tickles the ears of the naive Western liberals, keep in mind that “hate speech” is in the eye of the beholder.

This U.N. statement should be seen as a harbinger, a clear signal, that the U.N. and its many globalist allies are getting ready to clamp down even harder on what we the people are allowed to say or write online. The intent of the globalists is to criminalize all speech with which they disagree.

Peloni:  The long awaited series of interviews between Patrick Byrne and Rosanne Barr have begun.  This first installment stands at about two hours in which Byrne discusses his background, how he came to be a figure in the halls of power, so to speak, Operation Snowglobe and the Maria Butina sting and counter-sting.

Part II will be focused on the election fraud, with promises of many breaking stories.
