by Richard Kemp, GATESTONE  •  September 4, 2022


We are at present living through another example: the Iranian nuclear threat… This time, ignoring Israeli warnings will have even more dire and far-reaching consequences.

The Iran nuclear talks’ unavoidable impact on the Israeli election  

The Iranian nuclear deal is being exploited for political gain ahead of the Nov. 1 elections. With Washington so eager to restore the pact, a matter so critical to Israeli security should stay a consensus.

By  Yoav Limor, ISRAEL HAYOM    4.9.22

The compromise proposal put forward by European officials mediating between the US and Iran in an effort to renew the 2015 nuclear deal perfectly summarizes the parties’ willingness to cut corners out of a desire to restore the pact.

According to the proposal, Washington and Tehran will postpone discussing the International Atomic Energy Agency investigation into uranium traces found at three undeclared Iranian nuclear sites until after the renewal.

Israel’s defender against the ICC speaks out after retirement  

Israel defender Roy Schondorf gives his first interview since his retirement as deputy attorney-general for international law.

ROY SCHONDORF in Jerusalem: Loves the law. Background: Supreme Court

It was 2009.

Hoshea Gottlieb, an aide to then-justice minister Daniel Friedmann in the fading days of the Ehud Olmert administration, reached out to a private sector Israeli lawyer who had returned from seven years abroad, having previously served in the IDF’s International Law Department.

His request would have a major impact on the handling of Israel’s challenges in the international legal arena and the playing field of war crimes allegations and lawfare for the next 13 years.

Two Years After the Passage of the Abraham Accords:  A Conversation  

An interview with Rabbi Aryeh Lightstone, one of the diplomatic appointees who helped usher the accords during the Trump Administration.

By 

It seems like an eternity ago but on September 15 it will be only two years since the United States brokered the Abraham Accords. This series of agreements to normalize relations between two Arab states—the United Arab Emirates and Bahrain—and Israel broke an impasse that had prevented wider peace building efforts in the Middle East since the mid-1990s. Later Sudan and Morocco joined the initiative which became one of the most celebrated accomplishments of President Donald Trump’s tenure.

The McConnell betrayal: Why Republicans never win  

By Richard McDonough, AM THINKER

Satan: “Better to reign in Hell, then serve in Heav’n.”

—John Milton, Paradise Lost, Book I

Establishment Republican Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell recently did his best to “sabotage” Republicans’ chances of re-taking the Senate when he implied that the “quality” of the anti-establishment Trump-supporting Republican Senate candidates is subpar:

By Hans A. von Spakovsky, HERITAGE

Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson speaks during a press conference at Callidac Place on Monday, Nov. 2, 2020 in Detroit, MI.Kent Nishimura / Los Angeles Times / Getty Images

KEY TAKEAWAYS

A federal court has turned down Benson’s motion to throw out a lawsuit filed against her for refusing to remove almost 26,000 dead voters from Michigan voters rolls

Instead of simply settling the lawsuit and agreeing to finally remove the dead voters, Benson filed a motion to dismiss the case.

The good news is that because of this court ruling, Michigan might be one step closer to fixing this problem, whether Benson wants to or not.

The Biden Administration’s Nuclear Deal Is the Biggest Gift to the World’s ‘Top State Sponsor of Terrorism’  

by Majid Rafizadeh, GATESTONE  •  September 3, 2022

  • The main beneficiaries of the increased revenues will most likely be the office of Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), and more importantly the IRGC’s elite branch the Quds Force, which carries out extraterritorial operations to advance the revolutionary principles of the Islamic Republic abroad.
  • A considerable part of the economy and Iran’s financial systems are owned and controlled by the IRGC and the Office of the Supreme Leader…. This economic haven means that state and non-state actors, such as the Houthis, Hezbollah, the Shiite militias in Iraq and Bashar Assad’s Syria, will be the next major beneficiaries of Biden’s sanctions relief and new nuclear deal.

5,000 Former Israeli Security Experts Send Letter to Biden Against Reviving Iran Nuclear Deal  

By   FOREIGN DESK NEWS

In Israel, over 5,000 retired top-level Israeli military officers and former security officials have signed an open letter to President Joe Biden, urging him and his officials not to agree to the revived nuclear agreement with Iran. The latest effort comes as reports indicate that Tehran and American officials are agreeing to a bevy of measures that would allow for economic sanctions relief for the Islamic Republic and generate revenue for the regime and its terrorist proxies in the Middle East.

According to the text of the letter, the officials argue that the current proposed deal is “catastrophic for American, Israeli and global peace and security for a broad range of reasons.” The letter’s signatories come from Israel’s Defense and Security Forum, containing senior officers from all branches of Israel’s armed forces, security and law enforcement agencies, academics, and many others. Officials like Israeli Defense Force (IDF) Generals Gershon Hacohen, Yossi Bachar, Amir Avivi, and others argue that the revived deal allows Iran a “clear legal pathway” to obtain a nuclear weapon in the near future without any preventative measures.

Biden Fights 9/11 Victims in Court to Protect Taliban Cash  

The unspeakable betrayal over Afghanistan continues.

By Daniel Greenfield, FPM    2.9.22

White House Democrats have a history of fighting against terror victims suing Islamic terrorists. The Obama administration battled American terror victims suing the PLO. In 2015, after they won a $218 million judgement against the terror group, Blinken, then only a deputy secretary of state, intervened claiming that the lawsuit threatened “several decades of US foreign policy.”

But now Biden is fighting 9/11 victims on behalf of the Taliban. At stake are billions being held by the Afghan central bank fund in the United States.

Vaccines are taking an average of 5 months to kill people  

The CDC has been hiding the Social Security Administration death master file. This shows deaths are taking 5 months from the jab to happen. 

Executive Summary

We’ve always assumed the vaccine kills you quickly (in the first two weeks) because that’s when people notice the association and report it to VAERS. This is still true; it does kill some people quickly.

However, thanks to an HHS whistleblower, we can now clearly see that most of the deaths from the vaccine are happening an average of 5 months from the last dose. That is for the second dose; it may be getting shorter the more shots you get but there are arguments both ways (since there can be survivor bias).
