TIERNEY REAL NEWS   DEC 12

Shortly after 9/11, Vice President Dick Cheney instructed the National Security State to view all Americans as potential threats.

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) were created specifically for this purpose. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) came along in 2002, and within the Intelligence Reform and Terrorism Prevention Act of 2004 the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) was formed.

The DHS, ODNI, DOJ and FBI became the four pillars of this new institution. Atop these pillars is where you will find the Fourth Branch of Government – the Intelligence Branch.

T. Belman. I don’t envy the Jewish students on college campuses today.  They are exposed to so much in your face antisemitism. In the fifties and sixties, when I went to college, there was no antisemitism.  Nefesh B’Nefesh claims  a “53 percent rise in the number of single Jews under 30 moving to Israel since 2009. In 2021, Nefesh B’Nefesh said, 1,380 Jews in this category made aliyah. They expects that number to go up still more in 2022.”

“Hello Ms. Weiss, Please excuse any typos, I’m writing this half asleep on a train…”

Thus began a cold email I received in September 2019 from a young man named Blake Flayton. He was a student at George Washington University, he told me. He had just read my book, How to Fight Antisemitism, and he wanted to tell me more about the atmosphere he was facing as a pro-Israel, gay, progressive on campus.

In Hayek’s famous 1944 book, The Road to Serfdom, he warned that the intellectual and political classes of the democracies of that time were embracing some of the same ideas that inspired Hitler’s Germany, Mussolini’s Italy, and Stalin’s Russia:  comprehensive government planning, hyper regulation of industry,  nationalization, welfare statism, and collectivism in general.  He did not predict that these societies would end up “in serfdom,” however, as some have mistakenly claimed.  Quite the contrary.  In his first chapter he clearly stated that he hoped the ideas in the book would help these countries to avoid that disastrous fate.  He hoped the ideas of the book would be a roadblock on the road to serfdom.

A whole new generation of Muslims are growing in their understanding and support of the Jewish Nation. Muslim leaders across the Middle East are beginning to see Israel from a new and positive perspective.

In October 2022, REGAVIM released a report that  

“reveals that in 2022, illegal Palestinian construction in Area C, the portion of Judea and Samaria under full Israeli jurisdiction, increased by 80%. The report documents 5535 new illegal structures built in 2022, compared to 3076 structures in the same period in 2021. Regavim: “The Israeli government is creating a de facto Palestinian state.“

‘At present, according to Regavim’s research, there are 81,317 illegal Arab-built structures in this area, covering an area of approximately 150,000 dunams’

Obviously there is an enormous amount of illegal Arab construction in Area C which the Civil Administration does nothing about.

T. Belman.  Mudar Zahran will put an end to this.

By Itamar Marcus, PMW     | Dec 12, 2022

• PMW is releasing this report at the GPO’s Christian Media Conference in Jerusalem.

Many observers have been puzzled why the 1993 Oslo peace accords did not lead to peace but precisely the opposite. Sporadic Palestinian terror attacks prior to 1993 were replaced by repeated Palestinian terror waves murdering more than 2,000 Israelis. PMW’s report “Teaching Terror to Tots” is the key to understanding the post-Oslo terror enigma.

• • Recently… however, with the UNHRC’s persistent allegations that Israel is an apartheid state, that label is being pushed even further in an apparent effort to make it stick. The complicity of recent reports from NGOs such as Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch appear to be trying to ensure that their libel will be complete.
  • The campaign emboldens the radicals among the Palestinians, including the Iranian-backed Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ), whose declared goal is to eliminate Israel and replace it with an Islamist state.

T. Belman.  Abdullah’s days are numbered.

JaFaJ INTELLIGENCE  December 10, 2022

1. Summary: For the past three weeks, Jordan’s King Abdullah has embarked on a massive public relations campaign aimed at Western governments. Rather than reaching out to his disgruntled and economically strained public, Abdullah seems mostly concerned with his image abroad, with the focus being the “West.” In an effort to prop up his regime, King Abdullah and his wife, Queen Rania, have been meeting with every western leader who will listen to them. At the same time, Abdullah is desperate for information about what would be the next “big moves” in the Middle East region, suspecting “A plot between Arabs, Americans and Israelis to depose him and replace him with a Palestinian.” Abdullah’s paranoia is not new but has intensified recently with public opposition to him becoming more vocal as Jordan’s economy becomes more and more strained. The King’s confusion and lack of interest in his subjects, clearly exhibits the state of dysfunctionality Jordan is in. Jordan itself has become so fragile that a regime change is no longer an impossible event.

WHERE DOES THAT LEAVE ISRAEL?

PULSE OF ISRAEL

Watch Now

As  things progress as planned, we will have a huge reason to celebrate! It will be the first time ever that every political party, part of an Israeli coalition government, would have platforms that are proud of our authentic Jewish identity! This is huge! Yet, there are so many voices within the Jewish world who are horrified about it.
You do not want to miss this amazing breakdown.

T. Belman. I met with Simcha this week at the Knesset. I was there to inform him how much the Jordan Option coincides with the goals of the Religious Zionist Party. I also sent him this link. https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/notwithstanding-clause-explained-ford-1.6641293 and explained;

“As you can see, this clause is intended to protect against judicial activism. That’s the same reason Israel wants to pass it.  In Canada, the provinces wanted to be the last arbiter of rights. They didn’t want the Canadian Charter of Rights to be the last word. They wanted the provincial parliaments to be the last word. In  Israel, the Knesset also wants the last word, thus the override law.”

MK Atty. Simcha RothmanArutz Sheva

The ascent of MK Simcha Rothman, who was appointed chairman of the Knesset’s powerful Constitution, Law and Justice Committee, may prove to be the biggest nightmare for Israel’s current Supreme Court and its progressive supporters. Rothman has become the poster boy for judicial reform in Israel and has been a leading voice in the fight against judicial activism.

THIS COMES HIGHLY RECOMMENDED
UNFORTUNATELY, MEAD IS A TWO-STATER.

“Few of America’s foreign relations are as internationally controversial and internally contentious as our close relationship with Israel. That relationship has long been under intense criticism, and its true history has been obscured by rhetoric. Fortunately, Walter Russell Mead of the Hudson Institute offers a new perspective on this contested subject in The Arc of a Covenant: The United States, Israel, and the Fate of the Jewish People (Knopf, 2022). Seeking out the truth, Mr. Mead challenges both pro-Zionist and anti-Zionist narratives to shed light on the complicated origins of a now-divisive issue.”

T. Belman. Its time to end proportionality. We must use as much force as is necessary to bring peace to the land. In other words, zero tolerance for terrorism. No more pussy-footing around. Our words must be as bold as our action.

The failure of Iran’s rulers to develop a coherent narrative, let alone a strategy to deal with what looks like an existential crisis for the regime, has led to a chaotic response to the popular uprising.

• The failure of the Khomeinist clique to develop a coherent narrative, let alone a strategy to deal with what looks like an existential crisis for the regime, has led to a chaotic response to the popular uprising. According to semi-official figures, between 300 and 500 protesters have been killed by the security forces and more than 15,000 jailed. By the time of this writing, four executions have also been officially reported.
• But when you break down those figures, a curious pattern emerges.

The January 28, 2021 appointment as US Deputy Assistant Secretary for Israeli and Palestinian Affairs of Hady Amr (pictured), a man who wrote “I was inspired by the Palestinian intifada” and who falsely accused Israel of “ethnic cleansing,” was a significant step that promised the worst.

• The January 28, 2021 appointment as Deputy Assistant Secretary for Israeli and Palestinian Affairs of Hady Amr, a man who wrote “I was inspired by the Palestinian intifada” and who falsely accused Israel of “ethnic cleansing,” was a significant step that promised the worst.
• Two days before that, the Biden administration not only restored relations with the Palestinian Authority, but resumed most of the financial aid that had been suspended by the Trump administration — but they failed to ask the Palestinian leaders to stop financing and supporting terrorism.

The Palestinians aspiration is not to establish a state of their own but to dismantle a state of others

Newt Gingrich 311 (R) 

I think there is an Arab nation. I do not think there is a Palestinian nation. I think it’s a colonialist invention… When were there any Palestinians? …until the 19th century Palestine was the south of greater Syria. – Azmi Bishara, 1994

I think we’ve had an invented Palestinian people who are in fact Arabs, and who were historically part of the Arab community. – Newt Gingrich, 2011

Newt Gingrich is to be warmly commended on his recent statement underscoring the lack of authenticity of Palestinian nationality.
