Peloni:  It was a joyous moment to read the words “Hostages Rescued” once again.  I know that I was greatly moved by this event, and even as we know that there are still some 120 souls still held among the hordes of Hamas and their citizen jailers, I could not help but to see that this was a sign that we will not retreat from the coming victory over our enemies, that we will not abandon our citizens to a fate of their jailers choosing, and that we will  win this war – not because we can, not because we want it, but because we must.  There is no other choice, and if this reality was ever in doubt by anyone, this joyous moment demonstrated once and for all, that this is true.

What a joy to share good news: The rescue from captivity of four hostages.

Those rescued were Noa Argamani (25), Shlomi Ziv (40), Almog Meir Jan (21), Andrey Kozlov (27), all of whom had been abducted by Hamas terrorists during the October 7 attack on the Nova music festival.

 The French Foreign Ministry advanced two claims as the rationale for its decision to support the ICC—both equally risible and ridiculous

 The French Army burned 326 houses and murdered more than half of the village’s residents.  French soldiers raped many women and girls before murdering them…—an account of the massacre of civilians by French forces in the first Indo-China war.

 Atrocities committed by the French during the Algerian War during the 1950s against Algerians include deliberate bombing and killing of unarmed civilians, rape, torture, executions through “death flights” or burial alive, thefts and pillaging—an account of the atrocities committed by French forces during the Algerian War of Independence.

People shop at a grocery store in New York City on March 21, 2024. (Samira Bouaou/The Epoch Times)

Things have gotten strange out there in the land of shopping. I ran across a pack of butter for $8. I was shocked but then used my device to check other sources, only to find out it was a good price.

The same happened with some maple syrup. The $20 price tag shocked me and I thought, “What a ripoff,” until I realized it was being sold at a discount, given the volume.

Peloni:  Four hostages which were taken from the Nova Festival have been rescued in a combined attack, reportedly from the land, air and sea.  Noa Argamani, Almog Meir Jan, Andrey Kozlov, and Shlomi Ziv were rescued in an operation which included the IDF, the Shin Bet, and Israeli police.  The hostages rescued from two separate Hamas installations in the Nuseirat area in Central Gaza based on intelligence gathered over the past weeks.  The rescue was reportedly conducted with hundreds of forces involved and one member of the force was injured.  I

E. Rowell:  We do not yet know the extent to which American Jews are deserting the Biden Administration.  But in the wake of the 7th of October, it is possible that American Jews who were firmly in the Biden camp may be having second thoughts.  Up until now many non-Orthodox Jews, including Zionist Jews, were firmly in the “anyone but Trump” camp, which I see as due to the effective progressive propaganda campaign that has made Trump out to be a racist.  It is difficult to maintain that view of Trump as racist when you see him campaigning in neighborhoods of color and being so warmly greeted by thousands of people there.  The former head of the Black Panther party has come out in support of Trump.  He explained that Trump has always been a friend to the Black community.  I think the veil is being lifted from Jewish eyes in America because no Jew can now deny the genocidal intent of Hamas and all Hamas supporters.  Jews then look to Biden and Trump:  who will be a better protector of the Jews?  We await their answers to that question in November.

After tossing Jewish voters overboard to accommodate the Hamas supporters of Dearborn, Michigan, the Democrats are starting to get nervous about the choice they made.

Despite the rollout of the campaign, beginning with Senator Schumer’s floor speech blasting Israel, and various liberal Jewish surrogates, including Rep. Jerry Nadler, vocally opposing the campaign against Hamas, the Democrats did not manage to sell Jews on Biden’s betrayal.

When Jordan’s Arab Legion seized half of Jerusalem, ethnically cleansed its Jewish population and annexed the city– the only entity to recognize the annexation was the United Kingdom which had provided the officers and the training that made the conquest possible. Officers like Colonel Bill Newman, Major Geoffrey Lockett and Major Bob Slade, under Glubb Pasha, better known as General John Bagot Glubb, whose son later converted to Islam, invaded Jerusalem and used the Muslim forces under their command to make the partition and ethnic cleansing of Jerusalem possible.

The Jews living in the free half of Jerusalem continued to be killed by Jordanian Muslim snipers. The victims of those years of Muslim occupation included Yaffa Binyamin, a 14-year-old girl sitting on the balcony of her own house and a Christian carpenter working on the Notre Dame Convent.

If anything, the fallout from DEI shows how antisemitism in academia has come full circle.

Anti-Israel encampment at DePaul UniversityREUTERS/Jim Vondruska

As a legal studies professor in the community college system, I was asked to teach a new course on basic student skills mandated for undergraduates at all state colleges and universities. Though I initially agreed to do so, I changed my mind upon discovering that the curriculum includes a component on “diversity, equity and inclusion,” which seeks to indoctrinate rather than teach. In addition, the ideology underlying DEI depicts Jews as oppressors and Israel as a colonial occupier, promotes anti-Israel revisionist history, and has been instrumental in facilitating the antisemitic encampments and riots currently plaguing campuses across the country.

When asked by a well-meaning colleague whether I could somehow use DEI to facilitate constructive dialogue about antisemitism, I said it was impossible because of core progressive tenets that draw on classical anti-Jewish stereotypes and conspiracy theories.

E. Rowell:  It will be interesting to see the numbers of people voluntarily signing up for another dose of the toxic and potentially deadly shots.  It appears that the WHO doesn’t want to take any chances on leaving it up to the public to decide for themselves.  The goal of the WHO is to have total control of every human, animal, and plant on earth.  That way only they can decide what goes into the bodies of humans and other animals.  As the author points out, the global Communist-Totalitarian movement no longer need worry about subverting individual countries, country by country.  In one fell swoop they have found a way to subvert every country on earth.

This is typical Saul Alinsky tactics being used by a former Ethiopian communist politician who now heads the Bill Gates-funded United Nations World Health Organization.

By Leo Hohman    4 June 2024

The head of the Bill Gates-funded World Health Organization has declared war on so-called “anti-vaxxers.”

In true Saul Alinsky fashion, WHO Director-General Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, said earlier this week that “it’s time to be more aggressive in pushing back on anti-vaxxers.”

It was the revolutionary organizer Saul Alinsky who advised his fellow Marxists in his book, Rules for Radicals, to engage in a cutthroat information war against their political opponents.

E. Rowell:  This is a wide ranging interview, in which Trump is able to speak spontaneously about many topics that are on his mind, directly to the audience (through Dr. Phil).  This interview differs from campaign speeches in this and prior years first, because of the intimacy, and secondly because of the  degree to which Trump has been persecuted by globalist forces who are doing everything in their power to strangle our republic through strangling Trump’s ability to campaign and win the election.  A topic at the end of the interview bears comment:  forgiveness.  Dr. Phil asked Trump if he could forgive all those who have persecuted him.  Trump agreed he could, and that the country needed to be united.  This is a very Christian response.  In Judaism we know that no one can be forgiven by God until we have sought the forgiveness of those we have hurt in the preceding year.  Trump cannot fully forgive those who persecuted him because he cannot speak for ALL OF US AMERICANS.  Those who have persecuted him have persecuted us too.  They cannot be forgiven by Trump.  They would have to seek our forgiveness first, before God will ever forgive them.

Nobody in the State Department, or the United Nations, or at J Street headquarters, is talking about the recent terrorist shooting attack on the Israeli town of Bat Hefer, less than 12 miles from the coastal town of Netanya. Because it shattered the premise at the heart of all their proposals concerning the Arab-Israeli conflict.

Hamas terrorists standing within the municipal boundaries of Tulkarm, a Palestinian Authority-governed city, unleashed a barrage of gunfire aimed at the nearby Israeli town of Bat Hefer. Then they posted a video of the shooting on social media.

It was the third such shooting attack on Bat Hefer in two weeks. The Times of Israel pointed out that there have been similar attacks targeting Kibbutz Meirav, which is next to the PA city of Jenin. Once again, terrorists within the boundaries of the city were able to shoot into an Israeli community without ever having to go beyond the borders of their PA-ruled city.

Peloni:  Mike and Gadi discuss the duplicity surrounding Biden’s plan which was intended to trap Israel into a no win scenario, which of course is why Israel refused to accept it.  As has been true since before the Otef was invaded by Hamas, Washington is still seeking a way to regime change Israel into accepting a future which the Israeli people are even more resolved to resist today than they were a year ago.  They explain that the removal of Bibi from power is the focus of Washington’s every move in this war, including last week’s ruse Israeli plan.  They also address the motivations behind the ruse which includes the Israeli capitulation to Hezbollah in the North which is dependent upon the Israeli capitulation in the South to Hamas.  Among the consequences of Bibi’s refusal to acquiesce to the Biden ruse will be his ability to reframe the context of the conflict during the coming speech before Congress.  Mike explains that it is an important opportunity for Bibi to speak directly to the American people and explain the reality that this war is actually between Iran and the US, even as Washington is trying to pretend that the war is only between Israel and Hamas.

Peloni:  The absurdity of this faux ‘Israeli’ proposal which addresses all the needs of the terrorists and none of the needs of the Israelis displays the lack of concern which Washington has with their utter duplicity being on full display for all the world to see.  Indeed, there is in fact no better example of the Emperor walking sky-clad while gesturing to the fine quality of the cloth which he is not wearing.  To be certain, while nothing was hidden by the Emperor’s lack of veracity, his venal disregard for the care and safety of America’s greatest ally was on full display.  It is time for Israel to finally make an end to this war in Gaza and set its sights on the terrorist Hezbollah and Iran whom the US has exposed as those it sees as its true allies in this war.  But first, Rafah must be razed to the ground and the forces which Washington would make safe in that terror den must be shown the unkind consequences for there savagery of October 7.  There can be no other outlook for Israel, even as the Washington charlatans have now literally tried every trick in the book to change this fact, from the preposterous to the sublime.

E. Rowell:  The author emphasizes the Biden Administration’s weakness and incompetence.  A careful study of the Obama foreign policy reveals his determination to weaken and destroy US and Israeli military superiority while normalizing Jew hatred and targeting political conservatives in the US and Israel for attacks.  Europe has been antisemitic for centuries, with a brief let up right after World War II, until the EU was formed.  After that Europe went back to hating Jews in private.  The acceptance of mass Muslim immigration facilitated the flowering of violent Jew hatred, sexual violence towards women, and violent hatred of Western civilization.  We are on the brink of the Islamization of Europe and the UK and the collapse of the US political system.  Who can pull us back from the brink?  How can each of us help? Can we follow the lead of Israel and determinedly assert our right to protect Western civilization from its mortal enemies?

Antony Blinken and Benjamin Netanyahu – Haim Zach (GPO)

The elected leaders of North America and Europe, who have long-shown themselves to be cowards, appeasers and just plain idiots, continue making ultimatums to Israel as to how it must wage war.

These leaders of western governments, many of them cowards who would never wear their own countries’ uniforms, are placing daily demands on Israel about how it should spare the lives of those who declared war on Israel on October 7 by murdering 1200 Jews, raping women and beheading infants.

Americans were recently introduced to a funny little man named Dr. David Morens. I’ve been curious about him for years.

He was Dr. Anthony Fauci’s No. 2 at the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases of the National Institutes of Health (NIH). He was not quite, in Godfather parlance, the consigliere. He was more of a plain-old gatekeeper. He controlled the access and worked to stop people from getting to Dr. Fauci while protecting his boss against knowing things that Dr. Fauci did not want to know.
