In ‘unprecedented’ move, Biden appoints special envoy for Palestinians  

T. Belman. Biden just doesn’t let up. I am looking forward to our future government ignoring Biden or his various envoys. It should be fun.

The top US official on Palestinian affairs reaffirmed on Wednesday that Washington wanted to reopen its Jerusalem consulate for Palestinians even as a new right-wing government prepares to take office in Israel.

Hady Amr was appointed US Special Representative for Palestinian Affairs two weeks ago, a position created by President Joe Biden. He was previously deputy assistant secretary of state for Israeli and Palestinian affairs in the Bureau of Near Eastern Affairs within the US Department of State.

On Trump, Kanye, Biscuit, Jews, and Dinners  

Donald John Trump is a Philosemite.

by

Mara Largo

I begin with certain definitions:

1. The Jew-hater formerly known as Kanye West now prefers to be called “Ye.” Therefore, for the duration of this article, I shall call him “Kanye.”

2. The White Supremacist, Holocaust-mocking Jew-hater who was ancillary to the unfortunate dinner at Mar-a-Lago has compared Jews murdered in the death camps to baked cookies. Therefore, for the duration of this article, I shall call him by the name “Biscuit.”

Conceding to extremists, Netanyahu hatches intolerant, alienating, vulnerable Israel  

T. Belman. What a disgusting smear job by Horovitz. First of all, Smotrich and Ben Gvir are courageous patriots not “toxic provocateurs”. He is right to say, “What we are witnessing, in short, is a moment of destiny for Israel, a moment of drastic, fateful, fundamental change.”  Thank G-d for that.

Israel is changing from a liberal democracy ruled by the bureaucratic swamp to a patriotic democracy ruled by the Knesset.

The centre-left has been in charge since Israel’s declaration and have brought Israel disaster after disaster, namely giving the Temple Mount to the Jordanian Wakf, not extending Israeli sovereignty to Judea and Samaria after the ’67 War according to Ben Gurion’s Law, in  perpetrating the Oslo Accords which included the introduction of Arafat and his 40,000 terrorists into Israel, disengaging from Gaza resulting in being inundated from time to time with thousands of rockets, all in the name of chasing peace at any cost.

It is time for “fundamental change”. Israelis voted for it. I predict that Smotrich  and Ben Gvir will do much to correct the errors of the centre-left and they will not destroy democracy in Israel.

He is giving toxic provocateurs more power than they could have imagined and is set to take a wrecking ball to our judiciary. It’s a recipe for disunity and national weakness

Today, 10:50 am

Day after day, as he negotiates the staffing and agenda for his incoming coalition, Benjamin Netanyahu is openly preparing to turn Israel from a remarkable democracy, the only one in the region — with all the healthy strains of a powerful political echelon rubbing up against the brakes of a liberal judiciary — into something approaching untrammeled rule by a narrow, relatively homogeneous, hardline majority.

Biden urged to threaten Israel weapons halt over far-right concerns  

Pair urge president to withdraw military support to Netanyahu’s coalition government if Palestinians are expelled or land annexed

Two former senior US diplomats have made a highly unusual call for the Biden administration to cut weapons supplies to Israel if the incoming far-right government uses them to annex Palestinian land, expel Arabs or finally kill off the diminishing possibility of a Palestinian state.

Daniel Kurtzer, a former US ambassador to Israel under George W Bush, and Aaron David Miller, a US Middle East peace negotiator during several administrations, have called for what they described as an “unprecedented and controversial” break from America’s largely unconditional military and diplomatic support for Israel if “the most extreme government in the history of the state” pursues the stated aims of some of its members.

The GOP swamp sabotaged the mid-terms and Arizona to hurt MAGA  

TIERNEY’S REAL NEWS    30.11.22

This was a cloak and dagger week – lots of saboteurs were exposed and lots of schemes outed. I’m going to write a narrative of what I saw and you can find links and back up to support my claims on my Facebook page. You can find out how to do that at the end of the post. There’s too much going on to put it all in one post. It would be three hours long.

I’m sure there are conservatives who will disagree with me and are convinced that ONLY if DeSantis & Tulsi were in charge of America that all would be well. If so, I encourage you to do your own homework and send it to me and not condemn me for doing mine!

ZOA not only demanded Trump call out the antisemites but also condemned Clinton, Obama and Biden for their embrace of antisemites.  

ZOA Deplores that Pres. Trump Dined with Jew-Haters Kanye West & Nick Fuentes, and Demands he Condemn Them

ZOA PRESS RELEASE

Zionist Organization of America (ZOA) President Morton A. Klein, a child of holocaust survivors, released the following statement:

We must never ignore the vile poison of anti-Semitism, or those who spread its venomous creed. With one voice, we must confront this hatred anywhere and everywhere it occurs.”

– Pres. Donald Trump, State of the Union Address, Feb. 5, 2019

President Trump’s stirring call to the entire nation, during his 2019 State of the Union Address, to confront the vile poison of antisemitism anywhere and everywhere it occurs, and to condemn those who spread this venom, was the clearest statement ever made by a U.S. president about what we need to do to stop the dangerous horrors of Jew-hatred.

‘No Politician to Interfere in Our Decisions,’ Israeli Military Chief Warns Ben-Gvir  

While an Israeli military investigation affirmed the 10-day jail sentence handed down to a soldier who threatened left-wing activist in Hebron, Itamar Ben-Gvir has publicly challenged the punishment, landing him in a heated dispute with IDF chief Aviv Kochavi

By Yaniv Kubovich, HAARETZ   30.11.22

Far-right lawmaker Itamar Ben-Gvir asked Defense Minister Benny Gantz on Wednesday for permission to visit the soldier sentenced to 10 days in military prison for threatening left-wing activists in Hebron last week, just as the Israeli military announced it has decided to follow through with the punishment following an investigation.

“I don’t see anything wrong with the soldier’s behavior towards the bullies and I regret the disproportionate punishment directed at him,” Ben-Gvir wrote in the letter, adding that he “would like to visit the soldier in the military prison tomorrow and provide him with support.”

How Bezalel Smotrich rode unfiltered radicalism and unforgiving politics to power  

The Religious Zionism leader’s political ascent has been marked by extreme positions from the start. He now stands on the cusp of having the ability to realize his far-right vision

Today, 6:03 am

A little over a decade ago, as the 2009 election campaign gathered pace, a little-known but radical right-wing activist secured the respectable, albeit unrealistic, ninth spot on the electoral list of the ultra-nationalist and religiously hardline National Union party.

A few days shy of his 29th birthday, Bezalel Smotrich was making his first foray into frontline Israeli politics.

That Knesset bid, which failed, came just four years after he was arrested by the Shin Bet on suspicion of organizing violent Jewish nationalist activity.

The Bureaucracy’s Democrat Majority Made America a One-Party Government  

by Daniel Greenfield, GATESTONE  •  November 30, 2022 at 4:00 am


The most fundamental virtue of our constitutional government is that the public has supreme power over the government. The civil service system has effectively eliminated that power. This is what a slow-motion coup looks like. (Image source: iStock)

  • This is what a slow-motion coup looks like.
  • The solution to patronage isn’t professionalism, it’s smaller government. Government is not a meritocracy and there’s no point in keeping up the pretense that any part of it is merit-based. The most fundamental virtue of our constitutional government is that the public has supreme power over the government. The civil service system has effectively eliminated that power.

Biden Rewards Palestinians for Terrorism, Incitement  

by Bassam Tawil, GATESTONE  •  November 30, 2022


The Biden administration’s recent decision to upgrade its relations with the Palestinian Authority (PA) is yet another sign of how the US is rewarding the Palestinians, as they are the Iranian regime, for their ongoing toxic incitement and terrorism against Israel.

  • The Biden administration’s recent decision to upgrade its relations with the Palestinian Authority (PA) is yet another sign of how the US is rewarding the Palestinians, as they are the Iranian regime, for their ongoing toxic incitement and terrorism against Israel.
  • It is the first time the US has created a position at the State Department that is solely responsible for Palestinian affairs.

The Burgeoning Israel-India Strategic Alliance  

This week marks 14 years since the Mumbai terror attacks. Between November 26 and 29, 2008, operatives of the Islamist Lashkar a-Taiba organization struck at 12 sites across the city of Mumbai. Among the locations targeted was the Nariman House, host to a Chabad center. Rabbi Gabriel Holzberg and his wife Rivka, who was six months pregnant at the time of the attack, were murdered along with four other hostages.

A people cannot be called ‘settlers’ in their own ancestral homeland  

Why are Arab communities in Judea and Samaria called villages, while Jewish ones are called “settlements”? 

Nov 22, 2022, 6:00 AM

Jews of Judea and SamariaFlash 90

When did it become accepted that a delusional peace between Israel and the predominately Muslim Arabs, those who call themselves Palestinians, requires Israel to give away it’s very own Biblical birthright in the Jewish heartland of Judea and Samaria (the so-called ‘West Bank’)?

When did the Oslo Accords, the Wye Agreement, the Roadmap, ad nauseum, supersede the eternal possession of the Jewish people to their God given heartland? To even ask the question is a monstrous tragedy, so enormous as to spit in the face of G-d.

Trump Reportedly Refuses to Disavow Antisemite Nick Fuentes Despite Advisers’ Pleas  

T. Belman.  I don’t believe this.

Sources tell The Guardian that Trump ‘fears he might alienate a section of his base’ by renouncing Fuentes, after the former U.S. president had dinner with the Holocaust revisionist and Kanye Westnew-hdc-logo

Haaretz  Nov 28, 2022


Nick Fuentes, left, former President Donald Trump and Kanye West.

Donald Trump has refused to disavow Nick Fuentes, the notorious antisemite and white supremacist, with whom he met at his Mar-a-Lago resort, according to two people familiar with the situation, The Guardian reported on Monday.

The two talked over dinner, which was also attended by Ye, the performer formerly known as Kanye West, who has also been called out recently for antisemitic remarks.

Ayelet Shaked: Until he was indicted, Netanyahu opposed any reform to the judicial system  

T. Belman. Shaked said ” Let them decide what is more important to them, boycotting Bibi or saving democracy.” I previously said the same thing.

Outgoing Interior Minister: Netanyahu always preferred a government with the left and the reason a right-wing government has now been formed is that the other parties are boycotting him.

Nov 29, 2022, 6:13 AM (GMT+2)

Outgoing Interior Minister Ayelet Shaked participated on Monday in a conference at the College of Management Academic Studies and predicted that the new government will fulfill its term.

Shaked said that the Override Clause does not abolish the Supreme Court as the left claims, and that “it only changes its dialogue with the Knesset”.
