Saudi-Israeli peace is no pipe dream  

by Haisam Hassanein, WASH EXAMINER AUG 17

Is a Saudi-Israeli peace deal just around the corner or still just a long-term hope? The Wall Street Journal reported that Washington and Riyadh “have agreed on the broad contours of a deal” for the Saudis to recognize Israel. Yet when asked about that story, a State Department spokesman seemed to throw cold water on it, saying that normalization has “a long road to go with an uncertain future.”<

Biden pays $16 billion ransom to Iran, fails to free 3 Americans  

The US administration has struck another deal with the Islamic Republic which will bolster Iran’s economy and international standing.

Critics are livid as US President Joe Biden prepares to pay the Iranian regime a hefty $16 billion for five hostages held by Tehran. Not only does the huge ransom provide a lifeline for its sanction-stricken economy and help continue exporting terror across the world, the deal leaves out three American nationals held as bargaining chips by the Islamic Republic.

Fox News Defamation Settlement: Here’s Where Dominion And Smartmatic’s Other Lawsuits Stand Now  

T. Belman Yesterday I wrote an article about Lindell’s Election Summit and about Lindell now having the proof he needs to defend against the defamation suit against him. I submitted it for publication to a prominent site and they were too frightened to publish it. I also submitted it to one of the listed defendants below and doubt they will publish it.  Then I will have to decide if it is too dangerous for me to publish it.

By Alison Durkee, FORBES Apr 19, 2023,

TOPLINE

Fox News settled Dominion Voting Systems’ defamation lawsuit against it Tuesday for $787.5 million, avoiding an anticipated six-week trial in the case and bringing two years of litigation to an end—but Dominion and rival company Smartmatic still have numerous other cases pending against right-wing defendants over fraud claims involving the companies’ machines, including a separate pending case against Fox News.

‘Anti-reform protesters have taken the IDF hostage’  

The IDF is in the middle of a by-the-book psychological operation designed to overthrow the government, but doesn’t seem to realize it, says Brig. Gen. (res.) Ari Singer.

By DAVID ISAAC, JNS       20.8.23

Anti-judicial reform protesters have turned the Israeli army into a political tool, and if the military doesn’t put a stop to it it risks losing the national consensus, says Brig. Gen. (res.) Ari Singer, former commander of the Israel Defense Forces reserves (2017-2021).

Protest leaders are conducting a “propaganda and influence operation” to topple the government, and appear willing to sacrifice the army’s reputation to do it, according to Singer. “It’s called psychological operations, or psyops, and it’s being carried out brilliantly by those leading the protests. It’s like they read the 101 manual on subversion,” he said.

Ukraine ambassador threatens to block Uman travel if Israel ‘continues to deport Ukrainians’  

T. Belman. For me the message that Israel is deporting Ukrainian refugees who were taken in temporarily. Good, they are not Jews.

Canceling the visa-free policy with Israel is also being considered, Yevhen Kornichuk says.

 By  David Baron, ISRAEL HAYOM

Ukraine’s ambassador to Israel threatened Sunday to block entry for Israelis to Uman for the annual Rosh Hashanah pilgrimage unless Jerusalem “stopped deporting Ukrainians.”

Canceling the visa-free policy with Israel is also being considered, Yevhen Kornichuk said.

Israel’s #MeToo Stalinists celebrate their victory  

T. Belman.  THIS IS WAR AND MUST BE FOUGHT AS SUCH.

By Caroline Glick, JNS

After a six-month demonization, defamation and harassment campaign against the Kohelet Policy Forum and its chief donor, Arthur Dantchik, Dantchik, a Philadelphia businessman, announced that he was ending his support for the conservative Jerusalem think tank.

VERY GOOD NEWS ISRAEL  

By Michael Ordman, VGNI

I may have taken an extended holiday recently, but Israel’s innovators and high achievers certainly haven’t. The 50 positive articles in my latest newsletter are some of the best, but only a small portion of the great news stories from Israel that were published in the last month.  My apologies if you sent me articles recently – I will try to catch up and include them in a future newsletter.  Meanwhile, I hope that you enjoy reading this selection.

The Decline and Fall of ‘Woke’  

By Daniel Greenfield, 18 Aug

Walking into the children’s section of a public library, I spotted a copy of ‘Woke: A Young Poet’s Call to Justice’’. Published in 2020, it’s almost a cultural artifact because ‘woke’ has gone from a hip term for leftism to a battered conservative punching bag in the culture war.

‘Woke’, the term, peaked in 2020. In 2017, it was added to the Oxford English Dictionary and appeared as a category on Jeopardy. Next year, Essence magazine announced its list of ‘Woke 100 Women’. In 2020, Disney’s Hulu aired ‘Woke’:, a tedious series about a college activist.

Israel’s Elites Revolt Against Democracy  

Malcom Dash. I agree with Gadi Taub’s Tablet article (He was a founder member of the Peace Now movement), he’s an intellectual heavyweight, as is Ran Baratz. Taub, with elegance, describes the judicial tyranny exercised by the legal establishment. There are many other right-wing intellectuals who come to the same understanding as Taub.

They too describe the problem in the same manner, as I believe many right-wing politicians, Bibi included, do. However, this is a political conflict with no chance of resolution through legal nuances. It’s past time for straight talk. The Right must leave its comfort zone—an ivory tower—of academic legal parrying for and against judicial reform.

The Longer Republicans Sit On Their Hands, The More Likely America’s Self-Destruction Becomes Irreversible  

BY: JORDAN BOYD, FEDERALIST

Attorney General Merrick Garland announced on Friday that U.S. attorney for the District of Delaware David Weiss, who orchestrated Hunter Biden’s sweetheart plea deal, will now serve as special counsel in the government’s probe of the Biden family business.

The blatantly partisan decision to appoint a co-conspirator in the plot to cover up the Biden family business should not go unpunished. Republicans should start by impeaching Garland, whose track record even before the recent special counsel appointment was worth immense scrutiny. Garland’s decision to bestow special privileges and status on yet another one of Biden’s corrupt deep-state attorneys only adds to the growing list of reasons why he should be prosecuted and removed.

The Great China-American Abyss  

By Victor Davis Hanson, RCP

Imagine if the United States treated China in the same way it does us?

What if American companies simply ignored Chinese copyrights and patents, and stole Chinese ideas, inventions, and intellectual property, as they pleased and with impunity?

What if the American government targeted Chinese industries by dumping competing American export products at below the cost of production — to bankrupt Chinese competitors and corner their markets?

Biden Administration Funding Iran’s Nuclear Weapons Program, Incentivizing Terror  

by Majid Rafizadeh, GATESTONE  •  August 19, 2023

  • The Biden Administration has destabilized the Middle East, launched a potential international nuclear arms race, incentivized global terrorism, increased American taxpayers’ funding both sides of the Ukraine war, crushed even further a people fighting for their freedom and appeased yet another rogue regime — after Afghanistan, China and Venezuela – this time one that the US State Department itself has called the “top state sponsor of terrorism,” Iran, all in one week.

Dividends from Israel-Germany Arrow 3 deal will be felt across the board  

The fact that the Israeli system was chosen over the French one – despite a strong European lobby – is a badge of honor to the Arrow 3’s proven effectiveness, but also underscores Germany’s desire to join the US-Israel alliance on this limited and complex aspect of missile defense. 

By  Yoav Limor, ISRAEL HAYOM 18.8.23

It’s hard to overestimate the importance of the Arrow 3 export deal to Germany. The boon extends to all aspects of our lives – economic, diplomatic, and defense – but above all, it is symbolic: Some 80 years after World War II and the Holocaust, Israel is poised to protect Germans and many parts of Europe.

The Tyranny of the Minority  

By Ray DiLorenzo, STAND UP AMERICA

“The tyranny of the minority is infinitely more odious and intolerable and
more to be feared than that of the majority.”  William McKinley, 1886

There is so much out there that stinks. I’m considering digging out my mask, if I can find it, to keep the smell away.  Nothing is as it should be…criminals don’t get prosecuted, fires don’t get put out, the border will not be secured.  The war on drugs was lost decades ago, the homeless will not be asked to leave, too many men and women don’t know what gender they are, and every human worm has crawled out of its hole. But, a Chicago group did ask criminals to not shoot between the hours of 9AM – 9PM. For much of the country, especially the big cities, a total acquiescence.

The “Now it is, now it isn’t” Constitutional Nature of a Basic Law  

Barak “gave the Supreme Court the power to determine the constitutional norms of the State of Israel which should only be determined by elected officials, and the power to invalidate legislation of the Knesset, a power which was never authorized by the government.”

Legal Forum for Israel

Last week, the constitutional nature of a Basic Law was raised in the Supreme Court, specifically, the question of the constitutionality of an amendment to the Basic Law: The Government. This amendment was enacted to prevent the legal advisor to the government from declaring that a Prime Minister who has an indictment against him or her is in fact incapacitated and thus must be dismissed. It is important to note that the person who is authorized to indict the Prime Minister is none other than the legal advisor to the government acting in her role as head of the prosecution. Therefore, if the legal advisor has this authority, she would be able to dismiss a Prime Minister solely by pressing charges against him or her.
