According to the report, the main delay in advancing the law is connected to Defense Minister Yoav Gallant, who has tied his support of the bill to Minister Benny Gantz’s approval of it. Gantz opposes the current draft.

U.S. House Speaker Mike Johnson is drawing fire from conservatives in Congress for his pushing of the Rebuilding Economic Prosperity and Opportunity (REPO) Act for Ukrainians. The REPO act would allow the administration to seize between $5 to $8 billion in Russian assets and use the money to finance Ukraine’s recovery.
Congressman J.D. Vance (R-OH) has noted that the bipartisan legislation could be used by Donald Trump’s opponents to control him should he be reelected to another term.

Iran’s Failure to Comply with its Nuclear Agreements
Contrary to panicked assessments, the exit of troops from Khan Younis doesn’t signal the end of Israel’s war against Hamas in Gaza.

“We have eliminated 19 of Hamas’s 24 battalions, including senior commanders,” he said. “We have killed, wounded, or captured a large number of Hamas terrorists. We have cleared out Shifa [Hospital in Gaza City] and other terrorist command centers.”
E. Rowell: Recent observations of online “conservative” commentators has revealed a surprising number of previously either neutral on Israel or pro-Israel supporters who have developed one of a number of conspiracy theories about Israel wanting to start World War III. This is part of the meme war: the PSYOP created by foreign policy establishment. I suspect this is a form of hybrid warfare directed at Israel’s supporters.
Will Israel retaliate?; Israel’s Arab allies; Is WOL an IRGC front?
By Park Macdonald, THE SCROLL 15 April 2024
The morning after we published our special edition on Saturday night, predicting that President Biden would attempt to dissuade Israel from “escalating” in response to an “appropriate” Iranian drone-and-missile attack that had been green-lit by Washington, Barak Ravid reported that the White House had responded exactly how we said it would. In a Saturday evening phone call with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Biden reportedly told the Israeli leader that the United States would not support any Israeli counterattack against Iran. “You got a win. Take the win,” the president said.

Peloni: The video linked below was a fascinating. It is split into two parts – Avivi’s rise thru the ranks and much of what is discussed in the body of this article, and what took place on October 7, and the current crisis. The video is in Hebrew, and the translation is difficult to follow at times, but well worth the effort.
The chairman and founder of the “Habithonist” movement, Brigadier General Amir Avivi told in the ‘Melting Pot’ about his experiences with the security establishment, how the army never pressed to defeat terrorism, and about his experiences from Oslo’s Gaza
Lt. Col. (Res.) Amir Avivi, the chairman of the “Habithonist” movement and its founder, was a guest on the “The Crucible” podcast and analyzed with Schneor Weber the processes that took place during his service in the IDF, since the Oslo Accords, which led to the strengthening of Hamas and the shocking massacre on October 7.
Israeli-American technology expert Hillel Fuld offers insights into the reasons why the Israel-Hamas war has been long and drawn out — and unprecedented.

Hillel Fuld is an American-Israeli technology expert who recently provided some prescient insights into the nature of the Israel-Hamas war. He wrote:
se every single person killed is presented as innocent, a lie the world has completely adopted and used to pressure Israel. So Israel wants minimal death. Hamas wants maximum death. Chess and basketball.
Also, we define victory as getting our hostages back and eliminating Hamas. They define victory as literally anything else. If one Hamas terrorist is left alive, in their book, they won this war. In fact, in a sick and twisted way, their leadership already thinks they won the war by the very fact that Israel is still fighting.

I understand the title sounds crazy and kind of like ‘click bait,’ but hear me out. I promise I’m not saying Donald Trump is working with the Deep State, or that he is a part of the Deep State. What I’m going to try to explain is that the Deep State can’t afford for things to continue on its current trajectory.

E. Rowell: Dr. Seyfried studies cancer in the lab. He describes his re-discovery of work done by Dr. Warburg, a biochemist in the period of 1930-1960, and Dr. Seyfried’s own experiments which have proved that cancer is a metabolic disease.
The current standard of care in oncology is that cancer is a disease caused by genetic mutations. Thus chemotherapy is often designed to correct these genetic mutations. Cancer chemotherapy is usually very toxic, especially to the immune system, but also to potentially all cells in the body.
What has been discovered is that any malignant tumor requires glucose and glutamine to survive. The rest of the body can survive very well without glucose and carbohydrates which are broken down to sugars. Thus if glucose and other carbohydrates are not ingested, no tumor can survive. This is true of brain tumors, colon, lung, prostate, and blood cancers as well.

Last month, police were deployed to form a ring of steel around the statue of Winston Churchill in Parliament Square, London, to protect it from the hands of an irate pro-Palestinian mob.
Needless to say, there is something of an irony here: although Churchill is being targeted on the hackneyed view that he was a leading member of the White Patriarchy (aka, the root of all evil) — BLM attacked this same statue for that very reason in 2020 — the British statesman did, in fact, have some insightful things to say about the religion of many of his would-be attackers.

Senator Rand Paul recently came forward with more information regarding the COVID-19 pandemic and its origins – and this time, US Government agencies are directly implicated. If it’s true that these agencies knew about COVID-19 since 2018, and still weren’t able to handle the outbreak properly – either we’re dealing with MALICIOUS or INCOMPETENT actors in these agencies. So which is more likely?

The former president make statements the media before entering the courtroom.
Former President Donald Trump made history on Monday as he became the first former U.S. president to stand trial in a New York City courtroom for allegedly falsifying business payments during the 2016 campaign.
The former president took a seat at the defense table inside a Manhattan court as the jury selection process starts. The presumptive Republican presidential nominee will have to be in court for four days a week for the next six or more weeks.

Iran nuclear program
Though Iran describes its drone and missile attack on Israel as “retaliation,” it is actually an act of aggression. If Iran were an already-nuclear enemy state, Israel’s capacity for lawful self-defense would be glaringly limited. But as Iran is still pre-nuclear, the Iranian aggression could prove net-gainful for Israel. In essence, this Iranian crime offers Israel an eleventh hour opportunity to prevent enemy nuclearization. In formal legal terms, such opportunity falls under the heading of “anticipatory self-defense.”

Editor’s Note: “What the hell is going on?” is a weekly series in which we bring you the most bizarre, outlandish, and surreal developments from around the Jewish world during the past week.
The Islamic Republic of Iran launched some 185 drones, 110 surface-to-surface missiles, and 36 cruise missiles at Israel on Saturday night — yet many in the mainstream media have dismissed the Iranian regime’s first-ever attack on Israel as “limited.”
