The upcoming Jewish festival of Shavuot (Pentecost) celebrates the Revelation at Mount Sinai. Appropriately, Israelis have been revealing more innovations and activities to benefit humanity.

Recent medical revelations include, why some Alzheimer’s patients deteriorate more than others. Also, that a significant number of Parkinson’s patients suddenly become creative. Sheba Medical Center is able to see patients without them coming to the hospital, while Wolfson hospital can see what’s going on with cancer patients round the clock with Artificial Intelligent monitors.

T. Belman. This is very disturbing. When MBS  set out his demands for normalization to the US, Palestine was not one of them. MBS now appears to have upped the price for normalization by saying “We will not delay in providing assistance to the Palestinian people in recovering their lands, restoring their legitimate rights and establishing an independent state within the borders of 1967 with East Jerusalem as its capital.”

Hopefully it is not a precondition for normalization but a pledge to afterwards, assist the Palestinians in getting a state within the ’67 borders.

Amid reports of push for normalization with Israel, Saudi Crown Prince stresses importance of “Palestinian issue”.

By Elad Benari, INN    19.5.23

Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman on Friday once again stressed the importance the kingdom places on a Palestinian state.

Speaking at the Arab League summit taking place in the country, bin Salman said, according to Channel 12 News, “The Palestinian issue was and still is the main issue of the Arab countries and is at the top of the kingdom’s priorities. We will not delay in providing assistance to the Palestinian people in recovering their lands, restoring their legitimate rights and establishing an independent state within the borders of 1967 with East Jerusalem as its capital.”

In the climate of a global pandemic, COVID-19 vaccines were rolled out under emergency use authorization after a much shorter than normal testing period. Millions of people rolled up their sleeves because they were told they were doing their part to end the pandemic. But for some—it didn’t go as expected.

The Unseen Crisis is a feature-length documentary that provides an intimate, uncensored look into the lives of those who live with the debilitating after-effects of the COVID-19 vaccines. It examines the issue of COVID-19 vaccine injury claims in a fresh, honest, and comprehensive manner with expert interviews, whistleblowers’ statements, and government health statistics.

A US F-16 carrying: One AIM-9L Sidewinder, one AIM 9J Sidewinder, one 2000 pound Mark 84 bomb, and an auxilliary fuel tank on each wing

The United States has unilaterally decided to escalate the war between Russia and Ukraine, apparently in the belief that the war will continue to drag on for a considerable time, since training Ukrainian pilots will not be a quick or easy process.

Despite his previously announced opposition to supplying the fourth-generation fighters to Ukraine – a move that Zelenksy has been lobbying for – Biden unilaterally told his G-7  counterparts that he has flip flopped. As the BBC reported:

Steve McCann’s “Eight Startling and Uncomfortable Ways the Democrat Party Emulates the Nazi Party” was just the tip of the National Socialist iceberg.

The fascist far left have always had to lie to survive.  They’ve always been on the wrong side of history, and the only way they can remain viable is by gaslighting people on a full-time basis.  For decades, their biggest lie has been that the supposedly pro-freedom side of the political spectrum, imbued in the precepts of individual liberty and limited government, is somehow connected to totalitarian collectivist regimes that displayed the exact opposite of those values.

The Biden administration’s advertising of its success in tamping down conflict across the region is both premature and unwarranted.

By David Adesnik, FDD

In five days of fighting that ended with a Saturday night ceasefire, terrorists in Gaza fired more than a thousand rockets into Israel—1,468 rockets to be precise. Thanks to bomb shelters and the Iron Dome missile defense system, the barrage only claimed the lives of two victims inside Israel, one of them a Palestinian construction worker from Gaza. Four Palestinians also died when rockets fell short of the border, hitting homes in Gaza, according to Israel’s military.

America’s Middle East ‘Withdrawal’ Breathes Its Last Breath  June 24, 2022
What Does U.S. “Withdrawal” From the Middle East Mean? Dec 10, 2021

The short answer is that it hasn’t, and Washington must do more to correct this misconception

By Paul Sullivan, THE NATIONAL NEWS ,  December 29, 2022,

One of the more enduring narratives over the past few years has been America’s supposed withdrawal from the Middle East and North Africa. It’s a recurring theme in media reports and analyses, and often seeps into debates and discussions. But there appears to be plenty of daylight between perception and reality. And the fact of the matter is, the US’s business, academic, cultural, military and diplomatic partners in the region understand all too well that America has stayed. They also know how important it is for America to remain.

• At present, the ruling mullahs of Iran reportedly have enough enriched uranium to produce five nuclear bombs.
• General Hossein Salami, the chief of Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has made the Iranian regime’s plans vehemently clear: “Our strategy is to erase Israel from the global political map,” he stated on Iran’s state-controlled Channel 2 TV in 2019. Khamenei has also published a 416-page guidebook, titled Palestine about destroying Israel — which Iran’s former “moderate” President Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani, basically referred to as a one-bomb country.

Dershowitz argues that the named bad actors were well intentioned. He also said that he also thinks, like them, Trump was a danger to national security.  He also said that Hillary was a good friend and that he contributed to her campaign. He said the same about Obama.  He voted for him twice.

No state should invade another country. It’s morally and ethically unjustifiable. But when descending from mount Olympus, the real world of national interests obscures all virtuous modalities. From time immemorial, powerful nation-states have asserted their hegemony over other states; through military, economic, and territorial expansion.

From the age of the Czars, Russia has exercised its influence over the Baltic nations. However, regarding Ukraine, Russia considers this country and its people as one with Russia. And Ukraine serves as a buffer state for Russia; let’s not overlook that the West invaded Russia many times, the Swedes in the 1700s, Napoleon in the 1800s, the French and British during the 1917 Russian revolution, and the third Reich in WWII. It imprinted these invasions into the collective history of generations of Russians.

T. Belman.  In my opinion, the US isn’t so much interested in helping Israel normalize with Saudi Arabia as they are in normalizing with SA themselves. They don’t want to cede the Middle East to China and they don’t want to cede Israel and SA to China. They are not going to focus their efforts elsewhere as they have been suggesting. They are going to hold on to the ME, SA and Israel for dear life.

Is Israel dependent on the US or is the US dependent on Israel?

Report: Biden pushing for Israel-Saudi deal by end of the year 

U.S. National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan in Saudi Arabia to mediate.

 by Joseph Puder, FPM      19.5.23

It seems now that the Biden administration has recognized, perhaps belatedly, that the Iran-Saudi rapprochement has the potential of not only removing the US as an influencer in the Middle East region, but the Chinese might somehow replace the US dollar with the Chinese Yuan as the international currency. Already, with mega deals between China and Saudi Arabia, as well as Chinese huge deals with Iran, and potentially more deals with the remaining Arab Gulf states, US influence and prestige is bound to be eviscerated.

T. Belman. It is significant that the NYT published this letter.  It supports the narrative I have been publishing.

Signers say the conflict will be ‘our undoing’ if we don’t ‘dedicate ourselves to forging a diplomatic settlement that stops the killing.’

by Blaise Malley, RESPONSIBLE STATECRAFT   17.5.23

An open letter calling for a swift diplomatic end to the war in Ukraine was published on Tuesday in the New York Times. The letter’s 14 signatories consisted mostly of former U.S. military officers and other national security officials, including Jack Matlock, Washington’s former ambassador to the Soviet Union; Ann Wright, a retired U.S. Army colonel and former diplomat; Matthew Hoh, a former Marine Corps officer and State Department official; and Ret. Col. Lawrence Wilkerson, who served as Secretary of State Colin Powell’s Chief of Staff.

Galina:

Scott Ritter

In Russia, he is presented as a retired Marine Corps intelligence officer and former US Rapid Deployment Force analyst.

His military career was “put an end” after he was suspected of working for foreign intelligence. Scott married Marina Khotiashvili, a former Soviet translator who was linked to the KGB by US intelligence agencies. Ritter was fired and forced to testify before the US Senate. After those events, he immediately became an insane critic of the international policy of the United States and NATO, and later a sympathizer of the Kremlin.
