T. Belman. RFK JR is very pro-Israel. I just watched an interview of him in which he showed considerable historical knowledges about Israel. I began googling him to see what that was so and found this article among others. The Biden administration want to shut him up and thus accused him pf antisemitism.

The senator’s unwavering support for the Jewish state strengthened American-Israeli ties—and ultimately led to his assassination by a Palestinian gunman

In the months between his graduation from Harvard in the spring of 1948 and his enrollment in the University of Virginia Law School in the fall of that year, Bobby Kennedy embarked on an overseas trip at the urging of his father. Through the elder Kennedy’s Boston connections, the 22-year-old aspiring attorney landed a reporting job with the Boston Post. There, Kennedy convinced his editors to let him report from the Middle East on the Arab-Israeli war.

Warning: Max Blumenthal is an antisemite. Max Blumenthal’s Jew-hating fans.
Max Blumenthal’s ‘Goliath’ Is Anti-Israel Book That Makes Even Anti-Zionists Blush

Max Blumenthal and Stephen Gardner discuss the evil in DC. Colonel Douglas Macgregor and Tucker Carlson have said Donald Trump’s biggest sin was the threat to interrupt the money flow to the military-industrial-congressional complex. Ukraine is being used by DC to enrich government contractors. The “real war” is between DC and Putin with so much financial interest involved, DC will let Ukraine bleed to death before they give up their profits. Zelenskyy is a pawn in a money-grabbing scheme. DC is loaded with corrupt people making more money off this war than ever before so they fly their flags to support Ukraine but really they are supporting their huge incomes.

Apparently, all a judge needs to rule the way he or she wants is to place themselves above the Knesset, the laws it passes and the government charged with executing them.

Outgoing Supreme Court president Esther Hayut is playing the short game. She wants to clear her desk, finish the work she set out to achieve when she took over as Supreme Court head in late 2017 and let the chips fall where they may.

Shortly before Hayut assumed office, she set out her judicial vision in an address before the Bar Association. The central challenge facing the court, she declared, was surmounting the rule of law.

T. Belman. When Obama was campaigning to become President I followed him closely. A few years after his election I gave a talk on Obama’s Middle East Debacle. “How and why Obama screwed Israel”. Those that have watched the video have been very effusive in their praise.

By Andrea Widburg, AM THINKER

In 2017, David Garrow’s carefully researched Obama biography, Rising Star: The Making of Barack Obama, appeared to much less fanfare than it deserved. The media undoubtedly downplayed it because it offered the truth behind many of Obama’s self-adulatory inventions, and Trump’s new presidency occupied everyone’s energy. What makes the book newsworthy today is that David Samuels has interviewed Garrow and revisited narratives in the book, reminding everyone of the scary, power-obsessed nastiness behind Obama’s carefully built façade.

If you’re a taxpayer — in New York or anywhere in the US – you’re getting scammed by groups like United Way, Catholic Charities and the Central American Refugee Center (CARECEN). You may think these are charities. Truth is, these groups are hauling in millions in taxpayer dollars — your money — under government contracts to facilitate illegal immigration.

Cabinet secretary: Coalition will seek opposition agreement on main bill in the judicial remake; if no deal, will politicize entire panel, with each bloc getting half the delegates

A top aide to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Wednesday that the coalition plans to pass legislation remaking the Judicial Selection Committee in the fall parliamentary session — arguably the most far-reaching element of the planned legislative package — and then will shelve the remainder of its radical and divisive judicial overhaul package.

T. Belman. I still believe it was stolen. Common sense tells me so. There is no way, short of cheating, that basement Biden would have defeated Trump.

Jenna Ellis accepts censure from Colorado Supreme Court, acknowledging 10 specific misrepresentations

by Aaron Blake, WaPo March 9, 2023

Trump legal adviser Jenna Ellis speaks during a news conference at the Republican National Committee headquarters on Nov. 19, 2020.

Yet another figure who promoted Donald Trump’s stolen-election claims has backed down in the face of legal scrutiny. This time it’s the Trump campaign’s then-legal adviser, Jenna Ellis.

But even among the succession of walk-backs, this one stands out.

In a dystopian society, propaganda reigns, lies become mandatory and the truth inverted. ABC’s “The View,” a weekday echo chamber for leftist propaganda, has degenerated into a dystopian nightmare.On Wednesday’s show, the five co-hosts assumed their usual role as cheerleaders for the political persecution of former President Donald Trump, who faces another round of federal charges, this time related to his efforts to secure justice following his purported loss in the controversial 2020 presidential election.

Justices imply they’re considering delaying implementation of law that stops court removing premier; Netanyahu’s lawyer calls it ‘unthinkable’ to allow ouster by unelected official

The High Court of Justice asserted on Thursday in no uncertain terms that it views a recently passed law blocking the court from ordering the prime minister to recuse himself as a highly personal piece of legislation, and implied that it is considering an explosive ruling which would delay implementation of the law.

Japanese Prime Minister Kishida, Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol and Indian Prime Minister Modi each made a trip recently to Arab countries of the Gulf. In July, Kishida visited Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates (UAE), and Qatar while Modi was in the UAE. Yoon visited the UAE in January. These three trips received far less international media coverage than Chinese President Xi Jinping’s visit to Saudi Arabia last December but they are important indicators of changing dynamics in Asia-Gulf relations.

Reproachment between Israel and Saudi Arabia could have serious consequences – but perhaps there is another way. 

By Jonathan Pollard, INN

<
What’s clear about the American led effort to bring about a rapprochement between Israel and Saudi Arabia is that it has a secondary agenda that aims to undermine not only our G-d given claim to Judea and Samaria, but also our right to implement democratically endorsed domestic policies that run counter to the government’s leftist opposition.

T. Belman. Is democracy a pie in the sky? Is it realistic to expect the people to be ascendant? It seems to me that the people are no match for the oligarchs. They decide everything. Can it really be any other way?

Start listening to the voters on cars, crime and wokery, or there’ll be an uprising even bigger than Brexit

Britain’s deranged war on cars, our looming ban on gas boilers, the debanking scandal, the failure to prosecute crime, the attempted cancellation of women, the sabotage of the Brexit agenda, the scale of migration: welcome to anti-democratic Britain, where the beleaguered majority is increasingly subject to the whims of an entitled, activist elite that often seems to despise the people over which it exercises so much power.

T. Belman.  I disagree with the author about what Putin wants. I think he will settle for the four provinces and Crimea if there is an early settlement, otherwise he will take Odesa and all land east of the Dnieper.

On July 29, 2023, Jamie Glazov posted an interview with Andrei Illarionov, a former economic adviser to Vladimir Putin.  The title of the interview was “Inside the Mind of Putin.”  Dr. Illarionov said that Putin wants to restore Russia to what Putin calls “historical Russia.”  Putin’s writing and speeches indicate that historical Russia refers to the Russian empire that existed from 1721 to 1917.  The modern-day countries with territories once controlled by the Russian Empire include Russia, Ukraine, Belarus, Latvia, Lithuania, Estonia, Finland, Poland, Moldova, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, Tajikistan, and the United States (Alaska and parts of California).

T. Belman. How bizarre can it get?  Its bad enough that it recognized Palestine as a state in 2011, but it goes further to recognize sites that existed thousands of years ago as being in the State of Palestine.

Jericho prides itself on being the oldest most continuously inhabited city in the world, dating back over 10,000 years and for being at the lowest point below sea level of any municipality.

UNESCO’s World Heritage Committee is expected to list the site of ancient Jericho, which is now an archaeological park located in the modern Palestinian city that still bears the biblical name, as being in the “state of Palestine.”

The city is located in a section of the Jordan Valley, also known as Area A of the West Bank, which is under the auspices of the Palestinian Authority.

Sitting presidents are generally shielded from indictment and criminal prosecution, but winning back the White House would not protect Trump indefinitely

NEW YORK (AP) — The 2024 election will determine whether Donald Trump returns to the White House. It could also decide if he’ll face time behind bars.

For Trump, who’s now facing his third criminal indictment — this time for his efforts to overturn the 2020 election and block the transfer of presidential power — winning is about more than ego, redemption, score-settling or the future of the country.
