Peloni:  Very important video.  Harold Rhode provides a granular description of Arab society, and how it relates to both the sheikhs contesting the PA, the situation in Syria with the Druze, as well as the insanity of constantly withdrawing in Gaza as part of hostage deals.

There is a veritable cottage industry in America of despicable Israeli academics who choose to further their careers by moving abroad and then proceeding to spread lies in order to bash Israel.

Peloni:  The US coordinated color revolution against the Netanyahu govt was so overt that it was obvious from the moment it began, becoming more so with each day of the protest.  The documentary support of this outrageous betrayal between allies is a welcomed revelation, and the sunlight being focused on such an outrage will serve to strengthen the alliance between these nations.

Importantly, there are still laws within the US legal code which specifically prohibit the support of terrorists, and yet, despite these revelations, which include the support of terrorist NGOs, there is nary a peep from the US Justice Dept relating to these revelations.  Is AG Bondi is already working on this?

The United States has committed numerous Acts of War against Russia this year (2022).  This is not a value judgment.  I make no claim here about whether the United States has acted wisely, or has acted with justification.  I simply note it.  James A. Nollet

Peloni:  This is an important video.  Regavim’s Naomi Kahn describes many topics in which Israel stands at a tipping point of either victory or disaster.  From establishing governance in the Negev to restoring sanity and Zionism in the regional planning committees in the north to balancing the competing national and international interests in Judea and Samaria, Naomi describes the opportunities and dilemnas which will soon be decided on these and other topics which can no longer be kicked down the road.  This is one you will want to see.

Peloni:  The US has complete dominance over Qatar, and they acknowledge Hamas as being a terror organization which butchered and kidnapped dozens of Americans and well over a thousand Israelis, and yet the Hamas leadership stand free in Qatar, with no attempts being made by the US to prosecute these villains?

For the faux feminists, the hypocritical entertainment folks, the mendacious media, and the ignorant jihadi lovers, the atrocities and bestiality of Hamas are ignored or denied.

Latest Developments

• Strikes Intended to Prevent Rebuilding of Radwan Force: Israel bombed several facilities belonging to Hezbollah’s elite Radwan Force in the Beqaa region of Lebanon to prevent the force’s “reconstitution,” the IDF reported. The targeted sites included facilities used by the commando units to train in “weapons use and combat tactics,” along with weapons depots. Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz said that the strikes sent a “clear message to both Hezbollah, which is plotting to rebuild Radwan Force’s raiding capabilities against Israel,” and the Lebanese government of Israel’s determination to “respond with maximum force” to “thwart any threat.”

UN Jew-hatred exposed.

By Pamela Geller | July 16, 2025

UN Watch: a watershed moment of accountability for those carrying out the UN’s institutionalized bias against the Jewish state.  “This week, the dominoes are falling,” said Hillel Neuer, executive director of UN Watch. “First, U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio made the historic decision to sanction Francesca Albanese, the UN’s pro-Hamas rapporteur, in wake of a massive campaign led by UN Watch. Now the architects of the UN’s anti-Israel inquisition are fleeing the ship. The tide is turning” (UN Watch).

The UN is a terrorist organization that has abandoned the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and adopted the Cairo Declaration on Human Rights (sharia law). More on the Cairo Declaration on Human Rights in Islam (CDHRI).

Who really had the power to protect Epstein across three states?

The first time Jeffrey Epstein was locked up, it was in a private wing of the Palm Beach Stockade with unlocked doors and a ‘work release program’ (even though sex offenders were barred from participating in work release programs) that allowed him to keep an office outside the prison, then ‘work’ from his beachfront home, hire Sheriff’s Deputies as his private security, have them refer to him as a “client” and all the records of his visitors, who reportedly included minors used for sex, were then destroyed as part of a “routine purge”.

Peloni:  The disconnect between Trump and his base regarding the importance of transparency on this topic breaks with Trump’s heretofore uncanny ability to grasp the sensitivities expressed by his base.  Doubling down amid public criticisms, along with Allen Dershowitz acknowledging that the files do exist, have only served to widen dissent in his base over this controversy.  The political consequences for this will only grow greater as the mid terms approach, to the benefit of the Never Trumpers and their Democratic allies.

Peloni:  FDD’s Jonathan Schanzer explains the objection of having a terrorist regime acting as a good faith objective partner in negotiations which include one of their sponsored terrorist groups.  Noting the bipartisan aspect of US govts employing the Qataris as if they were trustworthy, he further notes the close ties between Qatar and many people in Trump’s govt, and calls for an end to Qatar’s Major Non-Nato Ally status.

Back in 2008, a British vicar banned the Christmas carol “O Little Town of Bethlehem” from his services following his pilgrimage to the West Bank city.

The Rev. Stephen Coulter said the carol’s lyrics don’t reflect the reality in Bethlehem, attacked Israel’s actions in the West Bank, primarily the security wall and the roadblocks telling the British newspaper The Times that he was “shocked at how the Arab-Israeli conflict that has raged around the West Bank town has decimated its population, wrecked its economy and hit tourism.”

Let’s be clear about the term non-governmental organization. According to Wikipedia:

A non-governmental organization (NGO) is a typically nonprofit organization that operates partially independent of government control, though an NGO may get a significant percentage, or even all of its funding from government sources. NGOs often focus on humanitarian or social issues but can also include clubs and associations offering services to members. Some NGOs, like the World Economic Forum, may also act as lobby groups for corporations. Unlike international organizations (IOs), which directly interact with sovereign states and governments, NGOs are independent from them.

Peloni: Pursuing a split vote in NCY against Mamdani is the pathway towards a Mamdani victory. While my sympathies lie with Sliwa, only a single candidate can afford to be on the ballot on election day. The question is whether the interests of Sliwa, Adams and cuomo can be managed in such a way as to meet this challenge, or if they will collectively act as co-spoilers to their rivals and thereby make a Marxist Islamist mayor over the Big Apple. The preference of significant distinctions between opposition groups is what has kept the Mullahs in power in Iran over the past many decades. Such an outcome can not be allowed to take place in NYC.
