Since the Zionist narrative has demonstrable validity over the irreconcilable, mutually-exclusive counter-narrative of the Palestinian-Arabs, it is the Zionist narrative that must prevail

At the heart of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict lies a clash of two narratives. On the one hand the stirring, fact-based Zionist narrative, on the other, the openly conceded fabricated “Palestinian” narrative—which as one senior PLO official openly admitted “serves only tactical purposes”, and whose sole purpose is to function as “a new tool in the continuing battle against Israel.”

Manama hints during president’s visit that it needs to see more from its economic relationship with Israel, while unlikely signs of hope emerge in next-door Qatar

Shortly after President Isaac Herzog’s Arkia charter flight took off Monday evening from Abu Dhabi for his journey back to Israel, the plane contacted Saudi air traffic controllers and made its way northeast.

The presidential flight over Saudi Arabian airspace is a tangible sign of the progress Israel has made in a region that rejected overt cooperation for decades. Since the 2020 Abraham Accords normalization agreements, Saudi Arabia has allowed Israeli airlines to use its airspace for flights to and from signatories United Arab Emirates and Bahrain, and over the summer announced it would open its skies to all Israeli commercial flights.

T. Belman.  I doubt that the EU will apply sanctions. It has learnt in the Ukraine War that sanctions can often hurt you more than the target. Like Russia, Israel will retaliate rather than succumb.  In addition the EU will be less likely to waste money on the Palestinians.

Israeli diplomats say they believe European Parliament members are already preparing for the change in power, but Jerusalem is calling their bluff. Europe ‘doesn’t take such harsh steps even regarding worse crises,’ one source said

Benjamin Netanyahu’s new government has yet to be sworn in, but there are already signs of conflict with the European Union. MEP Evin Incir of Sweden expressed opposition to the advancement of an intelligence-sharing agreement between the Israel Police and Europol organization, citing the composition of Israel’s future government. She says Israel’s police must not be allowed to use intelligence from Europe in the territories.

Israel is one of the few countries whose fundamental character is imperiled. But the main threat is no longer external: it is the internal schism between the Haredi minority—the Ultra-Orthodox—and the rest of society that has the greatest potential to change the country at its the core.

The March 23 election could emerge as an inflection point because Haredi behavior during the coronavirus pandemic has underscored divisions, deepened mutual disdain, and convinced many Israelis things cannot continue as they are. There is a clamor for change.

T.Belman. The only hope I see is for the Israeli center to replace the the Hareidi as Likud’s coalition partner. For instance if the center supported the agenda of the Right in its policies regarding Area C and identity , then it would be a viable partner of the Right who could then be less giving to the Haredim.

U. Weiss. The latest Senate hearings conducted by Senator Ron Johnson on the genocidal, Luciferian Pfizer and Moderna injections. It’s 3 hours long and it was produced in conjunction with the journalist Del Bigtree’s network “The HIGHWIRE”. It’s mind boggling that not one from the mainstream media outlets was willing to bring the unraveling truth to the people of the world, attention.

T. Belman. Horovitz clearly sets out Smotrich’s power and Bibi’s right to restrain him, if he can. How this will work in practice, I don’t know. If Smotrich and Bibi reach an impasse such as in E1, the winner will be the one ready to break up the government and go to new elections on the issue.

Bottom line is, Smotrich will force Bibi to stand up to more international pressure than he would like to.

Biden will have to decide how much pressure he should apply to Israel to keep the TSS alive during the upcoming US election season and during the rebellion of Europe regarding the Ukraine War.

And finally, how much pain is Israel willing to endure in exchange for Area C?

An extraordinary coalition deal gives the Religious Zionism leader ‘full responsibility’ in the biblical Judea and Samaria he seeks to annex, with only Netanyahu to hold him back

Likud party leader Benjamin Netanyahu, right, and Religious Zionism party leader Bezalel Smotrich shake hands after signing a coalition deal in Jerusalem on December 1, 2022. (Likud)

In its four pages of closely typed text, the coalition “appendix” deal signed and released earlier this week by Benjamin Netanyahu’s Likud and Bezalel Smotrich’s Religious Zionism party confers upon Smotrich what amounts to the prime ministership of the West Bank. Or rather, as Smotrich would most definitely term it, of the biblical Judea and Samaria.

Ukraine: The right of self-determination supersedes sovereign inviolability

EPOCH TIMES

‘The U.S. Supreme Court will decide whether it will take up a case that could overturn the 2020 elections and make representatives who voted to confirm the election ineligible to hold office in the future. The case, Brunson v. Alma S. Adams; et al, sues the members of Congress who voted against the proposed 10-day audit of the 2020 elections, alleging that doing so and then certifying the election regardless was a breach of their oath of office.

‘If the Supreme Court rules against Congress, it could potentially remove a sitting president and vice president, along with the members of Congress involved, and deem them unfit to hold office again at any level of U.S. government. It would allegedly also give the Supreme Court the ability to authorize the swearing-in of the rightful president and vice president.’

In October 2022, the White House and the Pentagon published key documents outlining the administration’s national security strategy. The leading priority is the multi-dimensional competition with China and the importance of attaining technological superiority. The climate crisis is highlighted as a central objective for international cooperation. The Russian threat must be constrained, and the Middle East is considered of less importance. What are the implications of the current US national security strategy, and what is the significance for Israel?

Former President Donald Trump’s daughter-in-law, Lara Trump, who is married to his second son, Eric Trump, has been a fighting advocate for her father-in-law throughout his first campaign and subsequent presidency. Even after he didn’t make it to the White House for a second term, Lara continued to speak publicly with an eloquent fierceness on his and her family’s behalf, always steadfast in the fight for MAGA and ultimately the American people.

Unlike Israel’s agenda-driven cynics, the world-renowned attorney has at least proven trustworthy where his views on the Jewish state are concerned, even if one disagrees with some of them. Op-ed.

(JNS) The enthusiastic response of the “anybody but Bibi” camp to a video message delivered on Friday by renowned criminal attorney Alan Dershowitz through the Hebrew news site Ynet is amusing. The same Israelis who’d been casting aspersions on the retired Harvard professor for criticizing the decision to indict Benjamin Netanyahu—the country’s longest-serving prime minister, soon to resume the premiership—are now hailing him as an expert to be heeded.

Big Tech censorship is the largest campaign finance violation ever and the cost to Americans is in the billions. 

Engineer and data expert, Chris Gleason has been reaching out to Florida politicians since early 2021 to get them to look a the real cost of Facebook and Twitter’s actions of censoring and de-platforming conservative websites.  He’s received little to no response to date.

With the information released by Twitter this past weekend, the cost of Twitter’s actions related to US politics is now very relevant.

Ever since Russia waged war in Ukraine, everything has gone through a sea change. The Russo-Ukrainian war has altered the global dynamics for good and rebel member states are rising against the unfair hegemony of stronger states, which would probably be the end of the EU. Two such powers are Poland and Hungary who are now all set to take on the EU and side with Russia. Now, this is what irks the Union and hence the leader Germany made a plan to expose Poland to the Russian attack. Watch the video to know more. 

Leftists claim to be the gatekeepers of democracy, but by inciting a boycott, and even a civil rebellion, against the incoming government, they are doing the exact opposite.

 By  Prof. Asher Cohen, ISRAEL HAYOM

The hysterical headlines are true: Israeli democracy is indeed in danger, but not in the way the Left makes it seem. Democracy is not in danger of religious “fascists” and “fundamentalists,” but rather lawmakers who adopt such rhetoric every time a right-wing government is elected into power.

We have often heard such warnings over the years, but in the last few days – as Prime Minister-elect Benjamin Netanyahu is nearing the establishment of a government – they have begun bordering on incitement and outright rebellion.
