Israel-Sudan Agreement a Success for Abraham Accords, Setback for Iran  

by Jonathan Spyer, The Jerusalem Post

Foreign Minister Eli Cohen announced late last week that Israel will sign a full peace agreement with Sudan in the course of 2023. The announcement followed a visit to Khartoum by Cohen.

This development reflects the further crystallization and further advance of the undeclared regional alignment of which Israel forms a part, and in which Egypt, the United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia are all crucial components.

Antisemitism dramatically undercounted in 2022, AJC report says.  

THE JEWISH VOICE   15.2.23


Following the Holocaust, Antisemitism was politically incorrect in America for about 30 years, but a new kind of anti-Semitism started originating from Campus leftism of the 1960’s just after Israel’s miraculous victory in the 1967 Six-Day-War and the new military alliance it formed with America

(JNS) Despite well-documented surges in antisemitism in America, new data suggests official numbers dramatically undercount the problem’s scope.

TIERNEY’S REAL NEWS     14.2.23

Pounding the table – or Israel’s January 6  

T. Belman. Well argued by Pruzansky, except for his allusion to Jan 6 which I believe is without foundation. Their differences are much more significant than their similarities.

Jan 6 was about an actual perversion of democracy whereas the current protests in Israel are about an alleged potential perversion.

These protests are the Israeli elite’s attempt to supplant democracy with mobocracy. Spare us the crocodile tears.

Protest in Jerusalem against judicial reforms, Noam Revkin Fenton/FLASH90

There is an old trial lawyer’s maxim that “if the law is against you, pound the facts. If the facts are against you, pound the law. If the law and the facts are against you, pound the table.”

Yes, China Is Probing Our Defenses  

T. Belman. Col D. Macgregor said in this video, with full confidence, that the balloons were no national threat whatsoever.

By Clare Lopez, NEWSMAX   8.2.23

The Chinese Communist Party (CCP)’s brazen intrusion into U.S. air space in early February 2023 provided the Chinese valuable streams of information. Clearly, the balloon first spotted over the continental U.S. on Feb. 1 was on a surveillance mission.

It departed the Chinese mainland on Jan. 21, traversed the Pacific Ocean, entered U.S. air space over Alaska’s Aleutian Islands, and then, after drifting down Canada’s west coast, entered continental U.S. air space. The White House reportedly was aware of the balloon from Jan. 28.

Witness says Arab activist hit soldier who was filmed beating him in Hebron  

Yeshiva student who witnessed incident where a Golani soldier was filmed beating an Arab activist in Hebron says activist struck first.

The Golani soldier who was imprisoned after he was filmed assaulting a Palestinian-Arab activist in Hebron on Monday was defending himself after he was attacked, according to a Jewish witness to the incident.

The soldier was filmed knocking PA-Arab activist Issa Amro to the ground and kicking him. Amro was accompanied by a US film crew that included prominent journalist Lawrence Wright of The New Yorker, who wrote afterward that, “I never had a source assaulted in front of me until today, when an Israeli soldier who stopped my interview did this with a Palestinian peace activist Issa Amro in Hebron. I can’t stop thinking how dehumanizing the occupation is on the young soldiers charged with enforcing it.”

The Pervasive Assault on Israel by Jews: Why Does this Hatred Persist?     

By Alex Grobman, PhD

The ubiquitous denigration, demonization and holding Israel to a double standard by those whom Daniel Greenfield calls “tenured academics, progressive journalists and irreligious clergy for whom Jewish values, like American values, mean appeasement and surrender to terrorists,” is an ongoing problem, although not a new one.

As early as May 1, 1936, Labor Zionist leader Berl Katznelson asked: “Is there another people on earth whose sons are so emotionally twisted that they consider everything their nation does despicable and hateful, while every murder, rape and robbery committed by their enemies fills their hearts with admiration and awe? As long as a Jewish child…can come to the land of Israel, and here catch the virus of self-hate…let not our conscience be still.”

Bezalel Smotrich: ‘The US administration knows we’re committed to the settlements’  

Despite their protests, we’re going to normalize life in Judea and Samaria, says Finance Minister.

On Tuesday morning, Knesset members and ministers from the Religious Zionism party convened their party meeting in Givat Harel in the Binyamin region, following the decision of the state-security cabinet to legalize the community along with eight others in Judea and Samaria. Most of these communities have existed for years; some were established decades ago.

At the start of the meeting, those participating held a moment’s silence in memory of Asil Sawaed, the Border Police officer who lost his life following a terrorist attack on Monday.

Why Israelis Have Moved to the Political Right  

When there’s clearly no “partner in peace.”

Western governments and media critical of the newly elected government coalition led by Likud’s Benjamin Netanyahu failed to ask themselves how it happened that the likes of Bezalel Smotrich and Itamar Ben Gvir are now prominent ministers in Netanyahu’s government. The same critics in the west labeling Smotrich and Ben Gvir “extremists,” haven’t attached that title to Mahmoud Abbas.

Since When did Ukrainians Become Entitled to a Giant State?  

This is the history of the transformation of a tiny area occupied by Zaporozhian Cossacks into the largest country in Europe after Russia, larger than France or Germany. How did Ukraine pull off an expansion of this magnitude without a single conquest?

By Alexander G. Markovsky, AM THINKER

The starting point of the history of Ukraine began is 1654 when Bohdan Khmelnitsky, a Hetman of the Zaporozhian Host, leader of Cossacks living beyond the Dnieper Rapids, petitioned Russian czar Alexey to accept the Zaporozhian Host into Russia. The land inhabited by the Cossacks (the orange area on the map) was part of what Russians called the Wild Fields, or “u kraine,” which means in Russian “at the edge.” The term originated in the 12th century to describe lands populated by half-savage tribes on the outskirts of Russia.

Amid the Noise and Hate, Israel is happy  

Gallup’s 2022 World Happiness Report proves that while Israel is thriving, its enemies are among the world’s most miserable.

By Charles O. Kaufman 

(JNS / Bnai Brith) Israel, home to 53% of world Jewry, is a happy place. Yet you wouldn’t know it if you believed the headlines about Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s new government or saw the latest anti-Israel resolution at the United Nations and the current wave of Jew-hatred propagated by American celebrities.

After all, between the International Court of Justice, Whoopi Goldberg, Kyrie Irving and Kanye West, antisemitism appears to be off to a good start in 2023.
