The White House has a lot of explaining to do. They’ve been caught red-handed.
As a new bombshell report accuses the Biden admin of funding Palestinian terrorists.
Translations of Palestinian media indicate that numerous members of the Palestinian Authority security forces, funded by the State Department, have been implicated in recent assaults against Israeli civilians and soldiers.
Peloni: I wouldn’t have guessed that the MSM in Australia would be the first to air such an open challenge on the shots, but I doubt it will be the last. People are sick, and people are dying, and they have no help, no support, and no relief for injuries related to them being coerced into a government imposed medical experiment.

T. Belman. Given the western vilification of Russia and Putin, why would anyone want to be become part of Russia?
The answer is simple. Russians love Putin and Russia and want to be part of it.
Rebel government to submit its request to Kremlin during a special congress on Wednesday
Pro-Russia rebels in a separatist part of Moldova are preparing to ask Vladimir Putin to annex their region amid warnings that an emboldened Kremlin is trying to destabilise Europe.
Gennady Chorba, a politician in Transnistria, which borders Ukraine, has said the rebel government will submit its request to the Kremlin on Wednesday during a special congress that last met in 2006.
There is ultimately only one way to prevent the massive destruction of areas of major Lebanese cities, and that is for Hezbollah to remove the rockets and missiles embedded in those areas. Op-ed.

To be clear:
US expert urges ‘designation of Qatar as state sponsor of terrorism.’

A shocking new report by the Middle East Media Research Institute revealed that Qatar’s authoritarian state trained Hamas operatives at the country’s police college as recently as 2023.
According to the early February MEMRI report, “Qatar – which is known for supporting Hamas, financing its military activity and sheltering its leaders, and for extending media support to Hamas by means of its Al-Jazeera channel – also trained, in its Police College in Al-Rayyan, officers from Hamas’ Interior and National Security Ministry, which is part of Hamas’ governing authorities in the Gaza Strip.”

On Sunday The New York Times published an explosive and very belated full admission that US intelligence has not only been instrumental in Ukraine wartime decision-making, but has established and financed high tech command-and-control spy centers, and was doing so long prior to the Feb. 24 Russian invasion of two years ago.
Among the biggest revelations is that the program was established a decade ago and spans three different American presidents. The Times says the CIA program to modernize Ukraine’s intelligence services has “transformed” the former Soviet state and its capabilities into “Washington’s most important intelligence partners against the Kremlin today.”
Minister Bezalel Smotrich spoke at the Jerusalem Conference about the attempt to pressure Israel into agreeing to a Palestinian state: ‘I would like to hear Benny Gantz object to this.’

Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich (Religious Zionism) has said that an absurd situation has been created, according to which Israel is expected to pay a higher price than it did in the previous deal in order to release the hostages.
Speaking to journalist and political commentator Amit Segal at the 21st Besheva Jerusalem Conference, Smotrich said: “Something strange is going on here. We have returned to fighting with all our strength and the IDF is doing amazingly well in Gaza. The previous deal was somewhat reasonable; one to three terrorists for a hostage and 10 hostages for each day of respite. Logically the upcoming deal should be on even better terms, because we have crushed Hamas and [Hamas leader Yahya] Sinwar should now be sitting in his hole, broken and ready to surrender and give us our hostages.”
B. Kalman: This video reviews the way US funded NGOs go into various countries, develop a network of “dissident” political groups, media, corporations, etc, in order to undermine a government that the US has deemed “undemocratic” and then proceed to create a color revolution to overthrow the government. The US has done this in countries all around the globe. Navalny’s activities concerned a US State department funded mission to overthrow the Putin government. Mr. Berletic discusses the evidence for this so it becomes crystal clear who is responsible for what. In a related substack (links below) there are concerns that the US likewise is now involved in a potential false flag attack in Poland to blame on Russia and Belarus.

– Alexei Navalny’s political activities were funded by the US government through the National Endowment for Democracy (NED) as part of an effort to repeat US-backed 2014 Ukraine regime change inside Russia itself.
B. Kalman: This really interesting video explains the efforts that many Islamic countries are making to delegitimize radical and intolerant Islamic voices in the public sphere. Berman discusses the efforts of Egypt, the UAE, and Indonesia to illustrate that these countries including Saudi Arabia and others have realized that radical Islam will lead their countries to a dead end. Given that these countries are making their own vigorous attempts to counter intolerant interpretations of Islam with more moderate interpretations, and place national sovereignty above caliphate, shouldn’t US foreign policy play a role in supporting these efforts?
By Ilan Berman, JEWISH POLICY CENTER 22 February 2024
“Multiple conflicts for legitimacy” leave nearly every major country in the Arab-Islamic world “grappling with questions of identity,” Ilan Berman told Jewish Policy Center webinar participants February 22. But pivoting to great power competition with China and Russia from 20 years of counter-insurgency warfare against Islamist movements including the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS) and al-Qaeda, the United States barely competes in “the war of ideas,” he said.
Peloni: Bibi responds quite well to a series of loaded questions. This openly hostile interview with CBS should be shared widely. He truly is a national treasure.

Janet Levy. If you haven’t viewed the Mike Benz interview in its entirety, you’re uninformed.

In recent weeks, various leaders of Western countries have publicly broached the idea of the unilateral recognition of a Palestinian state, asserting that the time has come to give the Palestinians independence, even in the absence of a negotiating process.
UK Foreign Secretary David Cameron and more recently French President Emmanuel Macron have floated this suggestion, despite the ongoing war in Gaza.
But what these esteemed statesmen have apparently failed to grasp is that the very idea of a Palestinian state is no longer geographically viable, morally acceptable, or even politically tolerable to the overwhelming majority of Israelis.
NATO is risking a wider war
By Stephen Bryen, WEAPONS AND STRATEGY 24 Feb 2024
Jens Stoltenberg
Jens Stoltenberg, a former Norwegian Prime Minister and now Secretary General of NATO should be fired now, before it is too late. He announced he is giving Ukraine “permission” to use its soon to be delivered F-16s to launch attacks inside Russia.
Not only is Stoltenberg an uber hawk, but he totally misunderstands NATO’s purpose. If he is allowed to stay in office, he will lead NATO into a European war that might well include nuclear weapons. Above all, Stoltenberg doesn’t grasp that NATO is a defensive, not an offensive, alliance.

Peloni: This is outrageous. As Bibi forms a symbol of unity from which the nation might achieve total victory, Barak acts to redeploy his campaign of pressure and protests to stymie the unified support for the war which could only lead to total defeat. The very claims of personal interests dominating national interests with which he assails Bibi is in fact a suit far bettered tailored for Barak to wear.
Former PM calls on 30,000 Israelis to encamp outside Knesset for 3 weeks to pressure PM Netanyahu to step down.
Israel National News | Feb 25, 2024
Former Prime Minister Ehud Barak shared his plan for how to force the current Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, to resign.
In an interview with Galai Tzahal (IDF Radio) this morning (Sunday), Barak “We need 30 thousand citizens to encircle the Knesset in tents for three weeks, day and night. When the state is shut down – Netanyahu will realize that his time is up and that there is no trust in him.”
T. Belman. If you care about free speech, this is a must read.
Don’t let the alarmist sound of this column’s title put you off. It is not a “conspiracy theory.” This column is a factual report as you will see if you read on.
Everyone needs to understand that the ruling elite in the US are implementing a decision to redefine democracy in a way that eliminates democracy, makes Congress superfluous, voting pointless, and discards the Constitution as an outdated document inconsistent with the power the ruling elite intend to wield over Americans and the rest of the world.

T. Belman. “Hanegbi said Netanyahu’s key principles for a deal, conveyed to the representatives in Paris, included that “any framework must deal with [the return] of all the hostages” — including those who are dead; that it must provide for “all women and children” to be returned at the start of the process; and that the agreement “can in no way be interpreted” as providing for an end to the war.”

In Israel, we’re slowly seeing the country emerge from one of the darkest times since the Holocaust. Evacuees are returning to their homes in the South as the threat from terrorists in Gaza is being eliminated. The transformation from darkness to light is reflected in much of last week’s news.
The dark days of displaced Israeli families have been made a little brighter thanks to donations and kind hosts. A wounded Fauda TV star has been able to see the light of day after being discharged from hospital. A Hamas terrorist emerging from a dark tunnel shaft with a bomb was seen just in time. And from the dark despair after seeing Hamas murder his wife, a brave, stateless Bedouin and his nine children can have a brighter future as permanent residents of Israel.
Under Biden, important foreign policy interests are being sacrificed for domestic ones.
Dr. Martin Sherman | INN | Feb 25, 2024
Foreign policy is really domestic policy with its hat on.- Hubert H. Humphrey
Under the Biden administration, US foreign policy appears afflicted by several perturbing defects. Indeed, it seems to suffer from both a lack of general strategic perspective and of sound theater-specific understanding. Moreover, it appears to be heavily impacted by extraneous factors not having any discernable relevance for the pursuit of American interests across the globe.
T..Belman. Natasha is absolutely brilliant. She convincingly points out how misinformed the House of Commons was when it passed a resolution in support of a ceasefire. The House debate embraced propaganda and blood libels against Israel as though they were the truth. What a farce.
