Recep Tayyip Erdogan has firm views on Israel: he doesn’t like the Jewish state, and wishes it would disappear. He is convinced it practices “apartheid” at home and “genocide” abroad. He has fantasized about creating, and heading, a pan-Islamic army that would be able to defeat the IDF, so that “from the river and the sea/Palestine will be free” — which is the thinly-disguised call for Israel to disappear entirely, to be replaced by a state of “Palestine.”

Linda Goudsmit: An excellent analysis of the deliberate, insidious, radical, leftist Democrat rhetoric designed to turn Americans into assassins. The only difference between the anti-American Democrat party rhetoric designed to kill Trump and the indoctrination of Islamic jihadis is that the American assassins are not promised 72 virgins if they succeed. There is political method in the Democrat party’s psychologically induced Trump Derangement Syndrome––and killing President Trump is its treasonous goal. “Death to America,” “Death to Israel,” and “Death to Trump” are all ideologically driven calls for political assassination whether secular or religious. In America it is called treason. In Iran it is called martyrdom.

There was nothing radical about Cole Tomas Allen: the attempted White House Correspondents’ Dinner assassin. Allen’s manifesto reads a lot like that of the previous three-named assassin Ryan Wesley Routh who was stalking President Trump at a golf game.

Peloni:  The freedom with which Jew Hatred is promoted in England while the govt remains mute leaves little doubt that this latest attack on Englands Jews will be met with nothing more than additional platitudes and fake promises.  The words “Never Again” when spoken by English officials holds no truth, and is in fact an empty cat-call which promises this event will no more serve as a wake-up call to the British govt than the last attack on Britain’s Jews.

The Iranian-affiliated terror group Harakat Ashab Al-Yamim Al-Islamiyya (HAYI) has claimed responsibility for the stabbing attack in Golders Green, London, in which two Jewish men were injured Wednesday, after taking responsibility for numerous attacks on Jewish and Israeli targets across Europe in recent weeks.

Peloni: While these new sanctions being placed on Iran are welcome news, the question remains why these sanctions relating to the teapot refineries were not employed previously as calls for exactly this level of ‘maximum pressure’ had gone unfulfilled til now.  Notably, the teapot refineries provided a key work around for US sanctions due to the fact that this level of sanction policy had not previously been pursued, making their current enactment a decidedly significant change in Trump’s maximum pressure campaign.

Peloni:  The imposed ceasefire and restricted freedom of action forced on Israel has only emboldened the continued attacks on IDF forces.  While this is being used as a conditional concession provided to Iran towards negotiations, the negotiation continue to show nothing from the Iranians but their resolve to not negotiate.  No concessions should have been offered to Iran, and certainly not such concessions as have held Israel under exposed threat while rocket and drone alerts continue nearly uninterrupted.  This continues to be an intolerable convenience offered to the obfuscating masters of terror in Tehran for nothing.

The liberties of our country, the freedom of our civil Constitution, are worth defending at all hazards; and it is our duty to defend them against all attacks. We have received them as a fair inheritance from our worthy ancestors: they purchased them for us with toil and danger and expense of treasure and blood, and transmitted them to us with care and diligence. It will bring an everlasting mark of infamy on the present generation, enlightened as it is, if we should suffer them to be wrested from us by violence without a struggle, or to be cheated out of them by the artifices of false and designing men. Samuel Adams

Tyranny is defined as that which is legal for the government but illegal for the citizenry. Thomas Jefferson

“The whole “I don’t hate Jews, only Zionists” statement is a nonsensical one, no different than saying I don’t hate Christians, only those who believe in Jesus. Zionism is the movement to bring Jews back home to their ancestral land. It is core to Judaism and for thousands of years, Jews, throughout the world, prayed toward and about Jerusalem countless times every single day. You can’t separate the land of Israel from Judaism …” — Hillel Fuld, April 12, 2026, on X.com

During Passover a friend asked me to recommend one book that explains why someone should be a Zionist. The nuance of the question can easily be missed: there are many very good books I could recommend to someone who wants to understand Israeli history or who wants to get advice on how to defend against anti-Israel lies.

Peloni: This is an important video in which Rabbi Pesach Wolicki examines an exchange between Batya Ungar-Sargon and Gad Saad on the topic of Sharia supremacism.  Take note that Saad argues that he may have more in common with a secular Muslim than he does with an orthodox Jew, which may be a fair point.  What he fails to note however, is whether it is likely that a secular Muslim would actually shout down their Sharia supremacist coreligionists alongside Gad Saad.  Notably, there are some, and leaders such as Mudar Zahran and Zudhi Jasser come to mind as examples of those who routinely do exactly this.  Yet, where are the masses of secular Muslims condemning the rise of Sharia compounds in the US?   We see plenty of Jews in the West condemning what they dislike about their coreligionists, but I honestly don’t recall ever seeing a similar event among the Western Muslim community.  In fact, while non-Muslims are attacked as bigots for making the case against Sharia law, as was the clear inference indicated by Ungar-Sargon against both Saar and the Orthodox Jew in the audience in this video, the real voice which would gain purchase in the West would be from the secular Muslim community, who would likely be quite familiar with the potential consequences of Sharia law being established in the West.  This is why the leadership of Zahran and Jasser is so important, but if it is true that the secular Muslims in the West are as opposed to Sharia as is Saad, they should be the first voices raised in opposition to the attempts of Sharia law to displace the law of the land in Western societies… So why do I only hear so few voices to join that of Zahran and Jasser?  Comments on this topic would be appreciated.

Peloni:  Zelensky’s faux outrage against Israel over the Russian grain sale is made patently clear by the below report of Russian stolen Ukrainian grain actually being sold in Ukraine via a Russia-Turkey-Ukraine route.  Take note that, as FM Sa’ar emphasized, no complaint or evidence was raised by Ukraine prior to Zelensky’s inexplicably public charges against Israel being filed via his Twitter account.  Notably, I would argue that given these facts, the issue of the stolen grain, whether it was stolen or not, and whether it was to be sold in Israel or not, was clearly never the point of Zelensky’s outrage.  So, what might the reason be for Europe’s star salesman to spontaneously concoct a story which has at its core no purpose but to delegitimize Israel on the international stage, and coincident to this, the EU raises threats of sanctions against Israel?  Was European threats of the sanctions the actual purpose behind Zelensky’s grain ruse?  Is this to be the basis by which Europe begins its post-Orban assault on Israel?  Notably, Israel has provided Ukraine with significant assistance over the past several years, even as Zelensky has maintained a majority of his support for ‘Palestine’, voting against Israel in nearly every vote raised in the UNGA against Israel, even as he found himself voting alongside Russia.   Hence, it begs the question of whether Zelensky’s intention in this gambit has been to play the court Jew for Europe’s beginning assault on Israel despite all that Israel has done to support Ukraine over the past several years.

While the U.S.-Iran standoff and Hezbollah attacks from Lebanon make headlines, Israel has been stepping up preparations for a resumption of warfare in the Gaza Strip. Hamas is refusing U.S. overtures to disarm and is trying to relitigate President Donald Trump’s plan for rehabilitating the Palestinian enclave. While the timing and tactics of any new Israeli offensive have yet to be determined, there should be no doubt that Hamas is again imperiling Gaza.

Janet Levy:  Recite the response to that BIG FAT LIE after me:

– The United States is not a democracy. It is a CONSTITUTIONAL REPUBLIC.

– The Establishment Clause in the First Amendment PROHIBITS the government from creating an official state religion OR favoring one religion over another or favoring religion over non-religion.

– There is NO connection here with KOSHER. Kosher slaughter is private, voluntary, and run by independent rabbinical organizations.

– There are no federal Kosher laws that have to be conformed to.

– Halal is a choice like Kosher.

Note to Halal Muslims: Take care of your own religious needs like Jews do. The government of the United States does NOT do this nor can they by law.

THIS IS AN ATTEMPT TO IMPOSE SHARIA ON ALL AMERICANS.
