Alongside my classmate, Barack Obama.

This open border disaster is not a “Johnny-come-lately” story. It is a plan that was created many decades ago by leftist radicals intent on destroying America.

I should know: I was there. I am a witness.

I am a blue-collar S.O.B. (son of a butcher) from the wrong side of the tracks: a poor, majority-black town on the Bronx borderline. I attended almost all-black middle school and high school in Mount Vernon, New York. After I graduated valedictorian, I was accepted at prestigious Ivy League Columbia University.

T. Belman. I wrote about immigration as a tool for Islam to conquer the world in Trump calls muslim immigration the all time biggest “Trojan Horse”

By: Amil Imani

Nearly 1400 years ago, a large number of Muslim jihadists from across the scorching Arabian desert, motivated by the ideology of Islam, indoctrinated by Muhammad, unafraid of death, conquered Iran (Persia), one of the greatest, strongest and most tolerant empires known throughout the history of man. The invasion of Persia was completed five years after the death of the Prophet of Islam, Muhammad, though Persian resistance continued for centuries up to and including the present time. (Most Iranians consider the current Islamic regime as the continuation of 1400 years of Islamic tyranny and oppression).

T. Belman. In Israel, son of last shah says Iranians ‘absolutely’ ready for Israel ties
During emotional press conference in Tel Aviv, Reza Pahlavi says Israel and Iran can be ‘strategic partners’ and that majority of Iranians ‘think differently’ from regime.  19 April 2023,

Caroline Glick and others are calling for Israel to commit to regime change in Iran .rather than just destroying their nuclear facilities.

By Amil Imani

The streets of Tehran were awash with people, their chants and slogans echoing across the city. “Reza Reza Pahlavi! Reza Reza Pahlavi!” they shouted, as they marched towards the parliament building.

Among the crowd were three friends, Payam, Zohreh, and Zubin. They had grown up together, gone to school together, and now, they were protesting together. As they walked, they discussed the events of the day, their hopes, and their fears.

The authorities knew for years about the wreck off Beit Yanai but didn’t know how extraordinary its cargo was

Having a nice springtime swim off the central Israeli coast as he does every morning, Gideon Harris saw huge stone columns lying on the seabed. He did the right thing and called the authorities, who were monumentally unsurprised.The Israel Antiquities Authority had known for years about the ancient shipwreck off Bait Yanai, a moshav (agricultural community) six kilometers north of Netanya. They even assumed it was from Roman times and knew that it bore a cargo of marble items.

Once a bastion of Western influence in the Persian Gulf, Saudi Arabia may be shifting its allegiance toward the East. Tired of Washington’s wavering support, the Saudis are warming to China. Still, it is not clear Beijing can replace Washington.

T. Belman. It used to be that when PIJ attacked, Israel would hold Hamas responsible. Why not now?

“Quiet will be met with quiet” is the recurring refrain of Israel’s deterrence operations against Islamic Jihad in Gaza, which amounts to no change in the strategic reality in the south of the country. In practice, Hamas, the sovereign in Gaza, emerges from this round empowered: it set the rules of the game, apparently determined the length and intensity of the operation, and once again did not have to pay the price of responsibility for Gaza

INSS Insight No. 1724, May 15, 2023

Udi Dekel

Another exchange of blows in the Gaza Strip between Israel and Islamic Jihad ended with Egyptian mediation. Israel once again initiated a military operation, seizing an opportunity to attack senior Islamic Jihad figures, while allowing Hamas, which in practice rules the Gaza Strip, to avoid responsibility for what occurs there. Militarily, Israel saw operational success, both offensively and defensively. However, politically, Israel allowed Hamas to set the rules of the game, continue to enjoy the fruits of its arrangement with Israel, and emerge stronger at the end of this round of fighting.

Try this:  Trump’s popularity and national fatigue with leftist outcomes — transgender beer, rampant crime, invasion of illegals — and America has enough and gives Trump more votes than the other guy in 2024 — obvious to all.

Then, the election is stolen!

The Trump campaign focuses on not getting screwed with ballot-harvesting — blind to the dozen other forms of fraud coming their way.

• It is the first time in Israel’s short history that a large-scale movement has been launched using undemocratic means to overthrow a democratically elected government.

Journalist Caroline Glick reacts to last week’s news when Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant announced that Iran has stockpiled sufficient quantities of uranium enriched to 20% and 60% purity to build five nuclear bombs. In response to Iran’s nuclear advances, the Biden administration again moved its redline for backing Israeli military operations against Iran’s nuclear weapons.

Is this a time to despair Iran’s strengths, or can Israel take advantage of its strengths and Iran’s weaknesses to defeat the Iranian regime?

T. Belman. Galina recommended this article to me.  One word of caution, both sides propagate disinformation. Among other things, it suggests that George Soros is being unjustly smeared. What do my readers think? Also,

“Russian state-controlled media, emboldened by Lavrov, added that six million Jews were exterminated by Europeans, led by Adolf Hitler.” I ask you, is it fair to say that “six million Jews were exterminated by Europeans, led by Adolf Hitler.”?

I would also remind you that the EU supports the “Palestinians” and their “resistance”.  They are not our friend.

EU v Disinfo     JANUARY 27, 2023

At the very end of 2022, the now exiled chief Rabbi of Moscow made a remarkable statement, urging Russian Jews to leave the country(opens in a new tab) while still possible, before they are made scapegoats for the hardship caused by Russia’s war in Ukraine.

Despite the Kremlin’s long standing efforts to portray Russia as the main force of resistance against Nazism, now and throughout history, pro-Kremlin media have routinely entertained antisemitic messaging. A lot of it originated in Russian nationalist conservative and religious circles. It was, if not supported, then tolerated by Russian authorities, and made its way into pro-Kremlin media.

A rocket is fired from Gaza Strip towards Israel, on May 10, 2023. Israel and Gaza militants traded cross-border fire.

I was asked a simple question the other morning, just before davening. “Why doesn’t Israel just finish the job?” The question came from a dear friend, who made Aliyah from the UK close to 8 years ago. He and his wife love their life in Israel and regret only one thing: not coming earlier. He admits that politics never interested him, and only recently has started following the tennis match of Israeli political viewpoints. Everybody he talks to tries pulling him in their ideological direction, and while he appreciates the education, he has become quite confused. So… what does one do when they are confused about Israeli politics? They speak to me and I confuse them even more!!

It was clear to Israel that it had not much to gain from the continuation of the operation and that the longer it lasted, the harder it would be to locate and hit new targets, while the risk of mistakenly hitting civilians would only increase but the key to a cease-fire wasn’t necessarily in Israel’s hands

Amos Harel, HAARETZ  May 14, 2023 12:50 am IDT

After multiple efforts, it seemed Saturday night that Egyptian intelligence managed to achieve a cease-fire between Israel and Islamic Jihad in the Gaza Strip, after almost five days of fighting.

According to Egyptian and Palestinian sources, the cease-fire went into effect at 10 P.M. Right up until that time, rockets were launched from Gaza at the south, in what appeared to be an attempt by Islamic Jihad to land the last blow in this round of the clash.

T. Belman. Putin did state that one of his reasons for invading Ukraine was to “de-nazify and de-militarize” it. But the real reason was to make Ukraine neutral and remove NATO from it. He was prepared to live with the Mintz Agreements but the West wasn’t. So he also wanted to annex the territory which housed ethnic Russians.

Having said that, the invasion has adversely affected Russian-Israel relations.

Putin’s Foreign Minister said, “the biggest antisemites are the Jews themselves” and that Hitler had Jewish blood. Is this a change?

By (Former Min.) Ayoob Kara, INN

In 2012, Russian President Vladimir Putin visited the beautiful coastal city of Netanya in order to celebrate the construction of a monument that the State of Israel built honoring the Red Army’s Victory over the Nazis during the Second World War. It was the first monument of its kind to be built outside of the Russian sphere of influence, as most Western countries are too colored by the Cold War to build such a monument.

T. Belman. I am totally against ceasefires.  Not only do they dignify the terrorists but they undermine Israel’s commitment to defending itself, by itself.  The only people who benefit is the terrorists, Americans and the Arab interlocutor be it Egypt or Qatari. We give them brownie points for “helping us” stop the rockets.

Most countries, Israel included, resist negotiating with terrorists, but all do it, even Israel, when they have no other choice. It is a sign of weakness.  In this case, Israel is strong enough to force them to cry “uncle” and stop without any agreement. So why do it?

In this case Qatari funds the terrorists and then is applauded for getting them to stop. Terrorists, be they Fatah, Hamas or Hezbollah are encouraged to attack us because they know that we will be forced to sign a ceasefire, thereby saving them.

Blinken reaffirmed his country’s ‘ironclad commitment’ to Israel’s security, while calling for ‘equal measures of freedom’ for Gaza.

Israel National News     May 14, 2023,

A spokesman for the State Department said Secretary of State Antony Blinken had spoken with Qatari Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al Thani.

Blinken and Prime Minister Al Thani discussed the ceasefire between Israel and Gaza, with Blinken thanking the Qatari Prime Minister for his partnership and important efforts to de-escalate the recent hostilities.
