“L’Etat, C’est moi!”

Roughly translated, the phrase means “The State; It’s me.”

Purportedly spoken to the French Parliament in April 1655 by seventeen-year-old Louis the 14^th, the phrase reeks of self-importance, supreme confidence, and the determination to wield unfettered political power with no distinction between the man Louis was and the political position he held.

It wasn’t until some 60 years after Louis’ death in 1715 that uppity, English-speaking North American colonists rebelled against their own divinely anointed monarch, the English King George. It took eight years of war, and a little help from Louis’s great-great-great grandson Louis 16^th, before the colonists forged a representative republic modeled on England’s constitutional monarchy.

Masafer Yatta’s 20-odd villages are set to be cleared out after a 20-year court fight, despite evidence showing homes predating training area and questions over army’s motivations

FAKHIT, West Bank – In a cluster of dusty hamlets south of Hebron, a decades-long contest of wills between Palestinians and the Israeli government may be coming to an end.

After a legal battle lasting over 20 years, the Israeli High Court of Justice ruled in early May that the army could evict over 1,300 Palestinians living inside a military training zone that covers miles of rolling hilltops.

DePaul University’s show trial of Prof. Jason Hill.

By Matthew Vadum, FPM Aug 11, 2022

A white DePaul University professor mocked her black Jamaican-born colleague Jason D. Hill, claiming he came from a “shit-hole” country after Hill wrote an op-ed expressing support for the state of Israel.

The smear may be shocking to some but it’s just another day on an American university campus nowadays. To the academic Left, supporting Israel is arguably the worst thing anyone can do. Backing the Jewish state is an unforgivable sin in their eyes.

TRUMP NWO DEFEAT – MAGA ?

The Israeli military court extended the detention of the head of Islamic Jihad in the West Bank, Bassam Saadi, for six days.

Islamic Jihad in Gaza responded by threatening to renew attacks unless Saadi is released. The ceasefire which capped three days of fighting between Israel and the Islamic Jihad in Gaza is still considered to be fragile with both sides already expecting it to collapse.

Palestinians are weaker and more internationally isolated than they have been in years. (Joe Catron)

The Palestinians are weak, both the Palestinian Authority and Hamas. Arab countries will not deal with them and are even tired of them. The Turks are busy with Syria and their economy. Europe and the USA are busy with Ukraine and dealing with inflation.

Even the Israeli public has already forgotten the wave of murderous attacks a few months ago and is preoccupied with the cost of living, because it hurts more right now. This is precisely the time not to abandon the Palestinian Arabs, but to push them harder and impose our conditions on them, before it is too late.

On Monday night, we learned that Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate was raided by a team of FBI agents, ostensibly looking for documents the National Archivist says the former president took from the White House without authorization. Was the search for documents merely a pretext to snoop around Trump’s Florida home in the hopes that agents would turn up damning evidence related to the Jan. 6 riot at the Capitol? Or was the Department of Justice hoping the raid would whip Trump supporters into a frenzy and cause a repeat of the J6 protest ahead of the midterm elections? (Don’t take the bait.)

The elites are ignoring massive death numbers. Data doesn’t lie. Dr. Theo Schetter, a vaccinologist based in the Netherlands who has played a leading role in the development of a number of vaccines, has analysed the official data from the Dutch Government and found a very close correlation between when fourth vaccine doses were administered in the country and the number of excess deaths, as shown in the chart below. Importantly, in the Netherlands the booster rollout in different regions was staggered over a number of weeks allowing an analysis by region, which confirms the effect.

New research suggests that when Roman forces besieged Jerusalem in the year 70, they were firing barrages from what is now known as Cats Square

In the year 70, Roman forces commanded by Titus besieged and then vanquished Jerusalem, destroying a third fortification wall begun decades earlier, abandoned, then completed in haste by the Jewish rebels.

Now new research by the archaeologist Kfir Arbiv of the Israel Antiquities Authority posits where the Roman forces may have concentrated at least some of their artillery machines: Cats Square.

T. Belman. Smoltrich: “We need to see how to bring in two or three more mandates that are currently not voting with us and find a way to build a list that they can ‘swallow'”. He is targeting religious zionists who might otherwise vote for Gantz or Shaked.

Shaked’s call for a “broad Government” is at odds with right wing values. Bennett/Shaked tried that last time around.

MK Bezalel Smotrich predicts that it is the religious Zionist public that will decide the outcome of the November 1st elections and the identity of the coalition government that will be formed following them.

T. Belman.  Great, but what is he doing in bed with Gantz? He avoided calling for sovereignty over area C. Instead he talks of  “safe guarding the security assets” in Judea and Samaria. Or just safeguarding the lands in Area C. Not good enough.

And why does he put “anybody but Bibi” ahead of area C?  I don’t like his call but at least he has put Area C on the table of issues.

Justice Minister tours part of Samaria, vows to work to combat PA takeover of Area C,

Sa’ar in Samaria spokesperson

Justice Minister Gideon Sa’ar toured the ‘Gush Ma’arava’ area in Samaria Wednesday and received an overview of the Palestinian Authority’s moves to illegally take over land in Area C.

He noted that under the framework of the approval of the state budget and the coalition agreements of the New Hope party, additional resources were supposed to be allocated to strengthen the enforcement against the rampant illegal construction in Judea and Samaria.

In their ongoing struggle to escape reality, Israeli politicians and opinion leaders have settled on a new approach to our never-ending war with the Arabs of Eretz Yisrael: not ending the conflict, but managing it.

After almost thirty years of disillusionment and literally thousands of (Jewish and Arab) deaths, all but a tiny minority of Israelis – found in the halls of Meretz and the columns of Ha’aretz – finally understand that the slogans “land for peace” and “two-state solution” represent delusions, and that the attempts to implement them have been disastrous. Of course these ideas are still popular among European antisemites, liberal US Jews, and much of the American government, to our great regret. But that’s another story.

Using the ‘as a Jew’ accusation against the Jewish State.

As if further confirmation were needed to designate the CUNY system as an egregious purveyor of anti-Israel activism—often replete with anti-Semitic expression—the university is being made to answer for its failure to protect Jewish students and faculty with a new Title VI complaint filed on July 19^th by The American Center for Law and Justice.

In the past few weeks, I have received numerous inquiries about ten-year Navy veteran William Henry Teele III. After years of quietly providing information to me and other investigators into the July 1996 destruction of TWA Flight 800 off the coast of Long Island, Teele has gone public and is naming names.

I shared some of Teele’s information in my 2016 book, TWA 800: The Crash, The Cover-Up, The Conspiracy. Teele did not claim to be on the ship that fired the missile. He was on the USS Carr, a guided missile frigate that was one of the “combatants” in the battle group that destroyed the unfortunate 747 and killed the 230 souls on board. Everything that I could verify about Teele’s account back then checked out.

On the third day of confrontations between Israel and the Islamic Jihad, the militant group announced an Egyptian-brokered truce will begin at 20:30 GMT on 7 August. Israeli Prime Minister Yair Lapid’s office confirmed the ceasefire.

A very well-informed and senior Arab official has informed me that the ceasefire was confirmed by the Islamic Jihad after a 45-minute phone call between a very senior Egyptian intelligence officer and his Iranian counterpart. The official noted “The Iranian side wanted the truce to happen as fast as possible”

T. Belman. Such polls are misleading because most Israelis vote along party lines regardless of the issues. This poll says only 50% will vote as they did before. Seems low to me.

Each Party must erect its platform of policies being careful not to alienate their supporters and hopefully to attract other people to their banner.

Lapid is sure to support a TSS. Will Netanyahu make an issue out of Arab encroachment in Area C.  Will this distinction attract any new voters. If not why even mention it.  I think Netanyahu will stress that leadership as the key issue and that he wins hands down on that. “24% of respondents said party leadership and the identity of the party head was the main factor,”

44% in IDI poll say main factor influencing voting decision is party’s economic platform, plan for addressing rising prices; only 11% cite security and foreign policy as No.1 issue

Israel’s high cost of living and the general economic environment will be at the top of voters’ minds this November when Israelis head to the polls for a fifth national election since 2019.

According to a survey published Tuesday by the Israel Democracy Institute (IDI), 44% of Israeli respondents said the main factors influencing their decision when voting are a given party’s economic platform and its plan, if any, for addressing the rising cost of living.

THIS IS A GREAT EXPOSEE ABOUT THE BOMBING OF SERBIA BY NATO AND WHAT HAS BECOME OF KOSOVO SINCE IT WAS CREATED. IT ALSO EXPLAINS WHY NATO WANTED TO BREAK UP YUGOSLAVIA INTO SMALLER STATES.

AUSTRALIA ONE

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED EXPOSEE.

Solid evidence that Covid 19 was a bioweapon and the “vaccines” are too and that the Nuremberg code prohibiting undisclosed medical experimentation on people is being broken and all of this was funded by US Gov. Describes in succinct details ( with slides of blood) what happens to blood function and normal healthy immune responses once vaccinated and what significant medical conditions result from these vaccines.
