Silence is deafening in Ottawa

Tzvi Kahn | Jan 25, 2026

There’s a blackout affecting countless Iranians. No, not the internet blackout in the Islamic Republic, which has shut down the web across the country as millions of protesters swarm the streets. It’s the intellectual blackout in Ottawa, which has yet to voice explicit support for the Iranian people’s call for regime change in Tehran. The silence is deafening.

To be sure, the Canadian government has issued statements. It has commended “the bravery of the Iranian people” and condemned “the killing of protestors.” But Ottawa has stopped short of endorsing the uprising’s goal: uprooting the Islamic Republic. Even amid reports of thousands of casualties, Canada offers little more than platitudes.

U.S. President Donald Trump and Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu agreed that the next step in the Gaza Strip must be the disarmament of Hamas, following the return of the remains of Ran Gvili, the last Israeli hostage in Gaza, on Monday.

Peloni:  As it is often noted, October 7 changed everything.  Something which goes unnoted in this report is that the state run media has escalated rhetoric of Jew Hatred, while also weaponizing UAE’s participation in the Abraham Accords against the UAE.  These are important aspects of the shift taking root in Riyadh.

Growing tensions between Saudi Arabia and the UAE reflect shifting Gulf alliances, with implications for Israel and the US role in the region.

Over the last month, there have been growing reports of a rift between Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates.  Nothing in this story is simplistic. While some media may see a new struggle emerging, in the Middle East it’s always possible that countries disagree on certain issues, but not on others.

Paul Schnee:  This video was made shortly before the body of Ran Gvili was returned to Israel.

It explains just how badly Steve Witkoff is compromised by his real estate association with the Qataris who bailed him out of a $660 million deal in NYC. He had bought the Park Lane Hotel with a partner and intended to convert it into luxury condos.

Witkoff should be nowhere near any negotiations in the Middle East or the Ukraine. Indeed, he should not be involved in U.S. diplomacy at all. Apart from being compromised he is incompetent.

Now, President Trump must know about Witkoff’s embarrassing association with the Qataris so one has to ask why he involved him in the first place and continues to employ him in this sensitive capacity. It doesn’t any talent to act against our interests by supporting Islamist nations who seek our ruin and the destruction of Israel.

The Case of Beverly Hills

2025 Israeli Film Festival. Screengrab via Youtube [Cropped]

In preparation of the Israeli Film Festival (Feb 4-19, 2026), the mythological organizer was looking for an infusion of capital.  Many of the sponsors have not been as generous as before.

Realizing that now is more important than ever to stand up publicly and state “ISRAEL IS STILL HERE,” I urged support of the Film Festival, despite the fatigue, the many other causes that vye for money, and predominantly the hesitancy of being “too vocal” or “too visible” two year into the October 7th War.

Peloni:  With the return of the final hostage from Gaza, we must hold firm to the second and third War Aim set forth for the conclusion of the war in Gaza.  These include the elimination of the governing and military capabilities of Hamas, and ensuring that there will be no further security threats from Gaza.  From recent reports and Kushner’s Davos speech, it is evident that these two latter war aims are not the intended pursuit of the American as they intend to actually maintain Hamas in Gaza, provide them with political status and even the capabilities to enter a future ‘policing’ force, while resetting the the too many times to count failed two state solution into yet a new version of its many formerly failing iterations.  As if all the threats troubling Israel over the years could be solved with just a press of some magic reset button, the peace processors are peace processing the region back towards a new war using similar rhetoric and ignoring similar realities that conquest, not peace, is all that is desired from both Hamas and the PA.  The American refusal to accept this reality denotes a critical failure in the Trump administration which is more and more committed to this project while ignoring all stated benchmarks demanded of the Arabs, Hamas and the PA.  Recall Ted Belman’s Israel Should Declare Three Nos:

There is no diplomatic solutionIsrael should declare three nos; no to nuclear Iran, no to two-state solution, no to bi-national state.

This rather than ‘peace in our time’ should be the focus upon which Israel and her allies should make a stand.  Anything else, including Kushner’s stated ‘No Plan B’, is simply the latest attempt to supplement arrogance and ignorance in place of strategy and security.  Meanwhile, Jordan remains ignored as the designated state for the Arabs of Mandatory Palestine.  Recognizing Jordan as Palestine respect history, international law, demographics and the fetishistic need to focus on the plight of the Muslim Palestinians alone, while ignoring the Kurds among many other far more relevant actual peoples who have actually been denied the homeland of their forefathers, something which is only pretended with the Muslim Palestinians.

Americans For A Safe Israel

NEW YORK – Following the recovery of Staff Sergeant Major Ran Gvili’s remains 843 days after the Hamas-led invasion of Israel, a leading pro-Israel organization has declared that the time has come to put an end to all talk about Palestinian statehood. Americans for a Safe Israel (AFSI) has stated that one thing that must be learned from October 7 is that no Palestinian Arab state can be allowed to be created anywhere alongside Israel.

Peloni:  The joy over the return of Ran is overwhelming, but the focus must still be maintained upon the fact that there are still two remaining aims of the war yet to be fulfilled, both of which are being challenged by efforts of the US to advance yet a new ‘peace’.

When President Trump a half-decade ago tasked his son-in-law to design a two-state solution that would be the “Deal of the Century,” since I knew nothing of Jared Kushner, I wanted to know of his experience of Israel, the Arab world and Islam, academic, practical.

The Iranian regime wants to return to the trajectory that existed on the eve of October 7, a course designed to advance its plan to bring about Israel’s collapse. Even if the stars have not yet aligned for a decisive blow, Donald Trump wants to strike Iran and, if possible, also rid the world of the regime that rules it. In the meantime, fingers should be crossed for the protesters, and preparations made for what lies ahead.

On July 14, 1789, the day the storming of the Bastille marked the beginning of the French Revolution, King Louis XVI summed up the day’s events in his diary with two words: “Nothing.” He meant that the hunting expedition he had gone on had been unsuccessful. He did not know that within a few short years he would lose his throne, and his head.

Peloni: The threat from the Eastern border with Jordan continues to represent a growing concern.  It is ironic that the reason why Israel has tolerated the Hashemites for so long despite their routine calls for violence against Israel is due to their keeping the Eastern border secure.  With rising threats and attacks coming from that border, Israel is constructing a new wall to replace the once claimed security presented by the Hashemites and is now reactivating the old outpost system in anticipation of further need of support than just a physical wall, demonstrating the failing relevance for the Hashemites even among its strongest supporters.  It is time to push Jordan to accept its role as the state carved from the eastern portion of the Palestine mandate, to accept that it is the state provided to the Arabs of Mandatory Palestine, and to be recognized as the solution to the Two State Solutioneers who are so desperate to support the Muslim Palestinians that they are willing to carve Israel in two while ignoring the state created from what was Eastern Mandatory Palestine, ie Jordan.  History speaks clearly of the fact that Jordan is Palestine, that the fantasy of the Two State Solution paradigm was always maliciously constructed to ignore this, and we can no longer claim any rationale in ignoring these facts.

Peloni:  Anarchy is the tool of the anti Western mindset which is intent upon bringing the West down.  Those who celebrate and defend those sentiments are either maliciously motivateed or are filling a void created by some other form of malady which fills their lives.  Either way, they are a threat to society, and they should be isolated from society so as to prevent tragedies such as the one which befell Renee Good in acting out her passionately illegal attempt to strike out against civilizational order.  The West is under attack, and the focus should be placed upon stabilizing society, not celebrating those who are trying to bring it down.

The Renée Goods of the world need a reality check.

Peloni:  What possible benefit might be gained by outsourcing Jewish control over Jewish destiny.  The raison d’tre of the Zionist movement and the Jewish state has been to empower the Jewish people with both the ability and obligation to seek out their own fate, to protect their own without the need of cowering beneath the overlordship of foreign powers and foreign leaderships.  Israel must lead, with the grace of the sovereignty which distinguishes the Israel from the Pale.  To the degree to which we are not sovereign in Israel, we have betrayed ourselves to whims and fantasies of others, and we have a long history demonstrating the tragic consequences of pursuing such a fate as this.
