Ahead of the Sovereignty Movement conference new data reveals broad support within the Haredi public for applying sovereignty and promoting Jewish settlement. “The Haredi public sent a clear and unequivocal message to its leadership.”  

Peloni:  This is very encouraging news.

Trump Becomes Obama  

Peloni:  I think this article misses an important distinction between the policies of Trump and Obama, and I think it worth highlighting this distinction, because this distinction also separates Trump’s policies from those pro-Iranian influencers such as Carlson, Kelley & Owens.  Obama’s intention was to make Iran the regional hegemon, placing the influence of Iran above that of Israel, and Trump’s efforts to undo this is what gained the support of the Carlson, etc. podcasters to break with Trump.  While Trump has taken to push Israel into adopting a second seat to Trump’s peace efforts with Iran, such as they are, he is not promoting Iran as the dominant hegemon in the region.

White House dismisses Pentagon ‘leak’ that alleges Israeli spying as anti-Iran war pushback  

Peloni:  The story of Israel spying on America’s leaders is nonsensical in the extreme.  The US-Israel alliance is what is being attacked with this “leak”, and the alliance is well described in this following sentence from the report below:

“In recent decades, intelligence sharing between both countries has been so extensive that the standard view is that there would be no need to spy on what is already being voluntarily shared by both sides.”

Tens Of Thousands Join Toronto’s Walk With Israel As Police Report Five Arrests  

Peloni:  Wow! It is important for democratic nations to grasp the importance of opposing antisemitism, not just because their Jewish community members are citizens and deserve the full protections of the local laws, but because the weaponization of Jew Hatred is a violation of democratic norms, and it stands as a foreboding warning for the wider non-Jewish communities of what is coming for them.  With this in mind, it is encouraging to see at least the people of Canada are responding with an ear to the assault on their values, institutions and people, even as their leadership acts quite to the contrary of this.

Organizers describe the 2026 event as the largest in the march’s history while police maintain a significant security presence amid counter-protests.

Jerusalem ‘will be ours again’: Israel hits back at Turkish minister dreaming of conquering Israel  

Peloni:  This is the result of Trump’s Turkey policy in which Amb. Barrack has done nothing but embolded Erdogan towards resuscitating the Ottoman Empire.

‘Ottoman Empire that Erdogan dreams of has collapsed and will never return,’ charges DM Katz

All Israel News Staff | Published: June 8, 2026

The ongoing tensions between Turkey and Israel reached another high point on Sunday, after Israeli ministers reacted strongly to the suggestion of Turkey’s interior minister that Jerusalem could one day be reconquered by the successor state to the Ottoman Empire.

SUDDEN LEAD BY UNKNOWN WHO CONCEDED: California’s Big Cheat Run By Fraudster with Shocking Election Recount Past  

Peloni:  There can be no end to criminality when crimes are not addressed as criminal.  The rampant use of election fraud will end with the first successful prosecution.  So far, there aren’t even charges pending for what took place in 2020, so why would such a successful and lucrative scheme as is taking place in California, AGAIN, not proceed as if it were a completely legitimate process.

The Haunted Tightrope: Lebanon’s Christian Leaders and the Shadow of Reprisal  

Peloni:  A profoundly encompassing review the complex threats and circumstances which holds the Christian Lebanese community and its leadership captive in a sea of Islamists.  I have previously, and briefly, addressed the captured status of the Eastern Christian communities, but Harry Liberman provides an rather extensive description of the developing stranglehold in Lebanon under which the Christian community currently exists.

24 Hours on Capitol Hill to Save America  

Peloni:  The road back from anarchy requires an absolute commitment by the judiciary to act as the good arbiters of justice, and for this to be enforced, judges must be held accountable for violating standards of professional conduct and the law.  Bravo to Daniel Greenfield, Former Rep. Louis Gohmert, and the David Horowitz Freedom Center for doing the heavy lifting in restoring the groundwork of judicial accountability in America.  If only such standards of accountability for the judiciary were normative in Israel – just one of the many benefits of having an actual constitution complete with checks and balances.  The weaponization of judicial decisions based on political preferences and arbitrary standards is not justice, it is tyranny, and democratic governance can not survive the practiced exploitation of tyrannical rule.  This simple premise was the very premise upon which the judiciary was instituted in the Western world.  Fiat justitia ruat caelum, ie let justice be done though the heavens fall.

Only judicial accountability can end the judicial coup.

Iran Attacks Northern Israel (Closed Thread) New Comments at Bottom  

Peloni:  Final tweet at the bottom is chilling to read. Trump is pleading with Bibi to stand down, arguing

“Each of them had their fun. Israel had its strike and Iran had its strike. We don’t need another one.”

He is wrong. This statement is so incredibly wrong I don’t know what to say. It is as if Trump has no concept of what the actual difference is between Victory and Defeat. These are not just words, and in the Middle East, these words hold power over the survival of whole civilizations.

Iran initiated an attack on Israel with no provocation, despite Trump’s suggesting the contrary.  Lebanon and Iran are not common regions, and Israel responding to attacks from Lebanon can not be allowed to be accepted as Israel provoking Iran.  Trump’s comment on this is not only damaging to Israel, but it is in complete disregard to Lebanon, a nation with which Trump is forcing Israel to hold peace talks.  Trump appears to want to have it both ways, but either Lebanon is Iranian territory, or it is not, and in fact it is NOT.

Hence, if Bibi stands down now, in the face of an unprovoked major Iranian attack on the Israeli population, it will destroy him politically, but more than this it will present Israel as weak, and a complete toady to Trump’s will, which is why it will destroy Bibi’s political future. Israel is a strong nation in a difficult region of the world, and it needs a strong leader to lead it, not an American stooge.

If Bibi capitulates to Trump after having been shelled with ballistic missiles over the period of an hour, it will send a catastrophic message to Israel’s allies as well as to its enemies, and Israel can not afford to send such a message to anyone, not for any deal.

Clearly, judging by the public persona he began to construct for himself starting in 1987 when Donald Trump published a book entitled, “The Art of the Deal,” he saw himself an artist and just the other day publicly boasted that he never makes a bad deal.

Gaza Smuggling: What They Don’t Want You to See  

Madeline Brooks:  This is beyond troubling, and therefore must not be avoided. Contraband including drones and items used in war efforts are seamlessly getting into Gaza. Some of the traffickers are Bedouin Israelis and others are Jews, including officers who take money to bring in the very things that killed their “fellow citizens” on Oct. 7 and will be used to kill more Israelis, if successful. Fortunately, Israeli officials are beginning efforts to call these traitors “terrorists” engaging in war crimes.

TERROR ATTACK IN CENTRAL ISRAEL  

Israeli Muslim Opens Fire on Jews in Several Shooting Inicidents

By |

An Israeli Muslim living free in the Jewish state — a freedom and existence Jews are denied throughout much of the Muslim world — carried out a terrorist attack against Jews. Peace cannot be achieved when one side is indoctrinated to view the other as an enemy simply for existing. You cannot make peace with savages whose “religion” is genocidal and racist.
