Peloni: The use of art, literature and song has an important and powerful ability to draw attention to critical failings in society. With this in mind, be sure to share this charming rebuke of the collapse of the Fourth Estate with family, friends, and even with acquaintances whom you hardly know.
Peloni: I have watched Tommy Robinson since his advocacy first began, and he has only become more inspiring, more committed and more effective in the passing years, despite the best efforts to isolate, discredit, and silence him.
Ze’ev Jabotinsky, the great Zionist prophet and founder of Betar, wrote: “Silence is despicable. A man must shout the truth as he sees it, even if his voice trembles.”
At a time when Israel faces open war and the Jewish people are under siege – from rockets, propaganda, and moral cowardice – a valiant voice in the West has refused to bend and apologize. That voice belongs to Tommy Robinson.
Peloni: I am forever moved by the evidence which still exists to this day which demonstrates the inspiring connection between our past and the present as represented in such tiny pieces of clay as exemplified in this tax notice passed between the King of Judah and his contemporary nearly three millennia ago. Interestingly enough, these revelations demonstrate the contradiction in fake narratives as told by our enemies to debase our claim of ancestral connection to the land of our forefathers, but the grander import which I find among these ancient relics is our ability to gain a better understanding of our past and the frailties, follies, ingenuities and victories which led our people from three thousand years ago to this day. Indeed, such understandings are the fundamental foundations upon which a society’s identity is understood, and notably, it is our identity which our enemies are targeting when they shade our history with their invented tales which prefer to gas light the well depicted record of our presence in the land of our forefathers.
Clay fragment confirms direct Assyrian-Judean ties and echoes biblical accounts of royal tribute.
An extraordinary archaeological discovery near Jerusalem’s Temple Mount has revealed the first known written evidence of direct communication between the Assyrian Empire and the Kingdom of Judah. The tiny clay fragment no larger than a coin contains a 2,700-year-old inscription that appears to be a tax notice sent to a King of Judah, the Israel Antiquities Authority announced Wednesday.
Something happened that caused Donald Trump to “cancel” the expected meeting between himself and Vladimir Putin in Budapest.
Consider this: Plans were moving ahead for the meeting. Hungary’s Foreign Minister arrived in Washington to work on planning for the meeting. While he was still here, Secretary of State Marco Rubio held a “productive” phone call with Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov, and recommended that Trump cancel the Putin meeting.
Prime Minister’s Office: “The Knesset vote on annexation was a deliberate political provocation by the opposition to sow discord during Vice President JD Vance’s visit to Israel. The two bills were sponsored by opposition members of the Knesset. The Likud party and the religious parties (the principal coalition members) did not vote for these bills, except for one disgruntled Likud member who was recently fired from the chairmanship of a Knesset committee. Without Likud support these bills are unlikely to go anywhere.”
Peloni: More revealing than this is the INN report that Trump gave his word to the Arab countries that Israel would not recognize sovereignty over Judea and Samaria and has threatened “Israel would lose all of its support from the United States if that happened.”
An important point to be made here is the perjorative context in which it is claimed that Israel is “annexing” anything, which is utterly false. The extension of sovereignty only recognizes facts already in existence and as established in international law. Trump’s comment demonstrates a complete miscomprehension of what was proposed in the yesterday’s legislation.
Arab states, PA & Hamas join in condemnation of Israeli move

After the Knesset passed two bills advancing the annexation of territories in Judea and Samaria over the opposition of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, U.S. Secretary Marco Rubio warned that the action could be “threatening to the peace deal.”
Neoconservative Norman Podhoretz, a brilliant observer of Jewish behaviour in the United States, is aggrieved at how the majority of Jewish voters have historically voted Democrat. He views this voting pattern as sheep voting against self-interest. He is not wrong.
Peloni: Mudar Zahran of the Jordanian Opposition Coalition offers many details previously not revealed on the situation in Gaza, as well as a conversation about the Jordan Option to replace the king of Jordan.

Today I had a remarkble interview with @Mudar_Zahran (Secretary General of the Jordanian Opposition Coalition) living in exile in the UK. With his links to intelligence agencies he provided incredible insights into the Gaza ceasefire and an optimistic outlook for Israel & Jordan pic.twitter.com/ZNq3WUVfbt
Peloni: It is absurd that Qatar, Turkey or Hamas would be granted any role in what comes next in Gaza. They are all different faces of the Muslim Brotherhood, which by any reasonable standard should be eliminated from participating in Gaza.

Qatar is already backsliding just days after pressuring Hamas to clinch a Gaza ceasefire deal with Israel. During his annual address to Qatar’s legislative body on October 21, Emir Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al-Thani accused Israel of “continued breaches of the ceasefire in Gaza” without blaming Hamas for provoking Israeli action. At no point did Al-Thani mention Hamas’s October 7, 2023, massacre of 1,200 people, which dragged Israel into war two years ago. Rather than working with the United States to facilitate Hamas’s disarmament, Doha appears to be signaling a return to obstruction, with the apparent goal of securing Hamas’s position in Gaza.

Disagreements have emerged between the United States, Israel, and Egypt regarding the continued implementation of the Trump framework to end the war, amid the visit of the Egyptian intelligence chief to Israel and the arrival of the U.S. Vice President in the country, Kan News reported Tuesday.

The United States Department of Justice (DOJ) announced on Friday that it had arrested 33-year-old Mahmoud Amin Yaqub al Muhtadi in Louisiana. The DOJ alleged that Muhtadi was a member of the Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine’s (DFLP) so-called armed wing and had participated in the October 7, 2023, Hamas-led attack in southern Israel.
Once again, Israel’s decisive win has boosted America too.

The chaos in Gaza is intensifying, exposing Hamas’s true evil face to anyone who lives in the fact-based universe. Violating the ceasefire from the get-go, the terror group is doling out the dead bodies of innocent Israelis, making me wonder why we released any Palestinian prisoners without securing all bodies first.
And, beware, Israel has sometimes won wars while losing the peace. Still, while addressing the Knesset, US President Donald Trump correctly called the Gaza breakthrough “an incredible triumph for Israel and the world.” Once again, Israel’s victory is America’s victory, too. Read more…
Peloni: Watch this video in light of the comments made by Or Yissachar on the recent IDSF Briefing. Mark is essentially making the same point. The Arab attempt to solve the Hamas problem will fail, and then Israel will be allowed to complete the task.
Peloni: On the IDSF briefing today, IDSF Head of Research Or Yissachar explains that what is taking shape in Gaza will fail, but that Trump is allowing the Arabs the opportunity to prove they can get Hamas to demilitarize and disarm themselves, but that it is doomed to failure. Following their failure, the IDF will follow thru and eliminate Hamas. While Or’s conclusions here are quite reasonable, it elevates the level of danger for Israel, as we have already seen with the recent attack on the IDF forces by Hamas.
The conclusion being made here is that Trump is trying to align all the Middle East actors, and so he needs to give the Arabs the opportunity to prove that they can bring results to the table, and failing Hamas disarming itself, Hamas will be destroyed, either by a “proxy”, as Trump referenced in a recent interview, or by Israel. The proxy indicated in Trump’s comments should be understood to be a reference to the Arab force in Gaza, whoever is included in this group, and if (read as ‘when’) they fail, Trump can allow Israel to finish the job without any of the Arabs being able to mount an objection.
Peloni: Jordan is Arab Palestine. Based on history, law, geography and majority demographics, Jordan is Arab Palestine. While it has suited the interests of all parties for one reason or another to pretend away the reality of this fact, Jordan is still Arab Palestine.

The Baptist Zionist Public Affairs Committee (BZPAC) criticized U.S. President Donald Trump’s Gaza peace agreement, saying it “risks repeating the failures of the past” in a statement issued earlier this month.
