Dear Ms. Anarchist: When Did Safety Go Out of Style?  

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.

Here’s a challenge.  Ask your neighbor, ask your best friend, ask the guy standing next to you at the deli counter, ask as many relatives as possible, ask any real estate agent in the world this question: What is the number-one thing all people in the world do when they decide to move into an apartment or condo or co-op or house?

Back to the Mandate Era  

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.

Ahead of tonight’s Cabinet meeting, the Co-Chairs of the Sovereignty Movement wish to warn of the emerging political trends in the international arena, which may return the State of Israel to the days of the Mandate and severely undermine its sovereignty.

On Carney at the WEF in Davos   

By Walter E. Block

Screengrab via Youtube

On January 20, 2026, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney gave a much-praised speech at the World Economic Forum in Davos.

He began by mentioning his “values, like respect for human rights, sustainable development, solidarity, sovereignty and territorial integrity of states.”

I have no problem with “respect for human rights and sustainable development.” I am not sure about “solidarity.” Here is my initial comment about the latter two “values”:

Huckabee and Hagee stand by Christian Zionism

JD Vance, Greenland, Samoa, & Musical Corroboration of the Jewish People’s Sovereignty In the Land of Israel, Judaea, and Samaria…  

by Gerald A. Honigman

At a time when America, regardless of the perceived validity of its actions for security or whatever, is using all sorts of pressure tactics to acquire territory it has absolutely no ancestral or historical connections to in Greenland; and having also done likewise in faraway places earlier in locations such as Puerto Rico, U.S. Virgin Islands, Samoa. Guam, and other lands as well, it seems a bit unreal that some of our leaders (and hypocrites elsewhere as well) “take offense” at the idea that Jews, with about four thousand years of highly corroborated evidence of ancestral connections to the land of Israel, Judaea, and Samaria state the obvious: that they are indeed entitled to sovereignty in at least some of the lands where their ancestors lived, prophesied, ruled, and fought one imperial invader after another for their freedom and independence.

The Theory and Practice of Sanctuary Cities and States  

Peloni:  Fantastic analysis by Linda Goudsmit

by Linda Goudsmit | January 25, 2026

I began publishing a series of humanitarian hoax articles in July 2017, each article beginning with the same dire warning paragraph:

The humanitarian hoax is the deliberate and deceitful tactic of presenting a destructive policy as altruistic. The humanitarian huckster presents himself as a compassionate advocate when in fact he is the disguised enemy.

I identified former president Barack Hussein Obama as the huckster-in-chief and by October 2019, after reaching 50 hoaxes, decided to publish the collection as a book. The Book of Humanitarian Hoaxes: Killing America with ‘Kindness’ was released in June 2020.

Deborah Lipstadt is Right …about Mississippi & Intifadas  

Peloni:  The overlap between Left and Right is centered around the weaponization and promotion of Jew Hatred.  To this end they each enact alliances with the Islamists, alliances which we must identify and confront regardless of the political affiliations.  Notably, in the globalization of the war on the Jews which erupted alongside the October 7 Massacre, the dominance of attacks against the world’s Jewry has been sourced to the far-Left and their Islamist allies, but there is no reason to think that the far Right will not come to play a role in this latest war against the Jews, as appears to be evident in the attack on the historic Synagogue in Mississippi.

Soon after last week’s attack on a synagogue in Mississippi, Prof. Deborah Lipstadt, the former U.S. envoy for combating antisemitism, suggested there might be a link between the arson and the “Globalize the Intifada” campaign mounted by Hamas supporters around the world.

Why Were You Silent  

Peloni: Consider the reality that, as you listen to Hillel Neuer’s polemic against the silence supporting the Mullahs in Iran that the death tolls are rising with current reports of upto 20-40,000 dead Iranian protestors now being shared outside the deafening silence from the media, from the celebrities, and from the ‘peace’ activists.

  • For decades, Iranian leaders grew accustomed to Western caution, diplomatic hedging, and carefully measured statements designed to avoid escalation. They learned that repression at home would provoke criticism but rarely consequences. They learned that terrorism abroad would be condemned but tolerated. They learned that nuclear deception would lead to negotiations, not punishment.

Kfar Aza: The Day Terror Came Home | Part I  

Peloni:  Daniel Mael interviews two survivors from the October 7 attack on Kibbutz Kfar Aza, Gon Soussana and Rona Epstein.  In watching this, please note the reality that Rona addresses at the end in wanting to return home while acknowledging the impossibility of feeling safe doing so as long as Hamas continues to exist.  Yet this is what the very situation which the Kushner plan for Gaza entails.  I agree with Gon that the IDF is the people’s army, that the land must be defended and that the people must trust that this will be the case, but even acknowledging this, we must resist the American preference to preserve the October 7 savages in any way, much less to keep them armed, potentially becoming future security members or political leaders of the Day After fantasyland which is being unveiled in Gaza in place of any form of sanity, justice or security.  HAMAS MUST BE DESTROYED!  Trump once recognized this fact as true.  Whether he still does is not relevant to the fact that only the IDF can and will protect Israel, and Bibi must not compromise on this vital point of having fought the war these past two years..

The Moderation of Mansour Abbas and his Raam Party  

Peloni:  Mansour Abbas has sold himself as being a role model for the Arab community in Israel over the years, and yet a fair reading of many of his comments as well as the charter of his Ra’am party certainly provides a distinctly less favorable perspective on this Israeli Muslim Brotherhood affiliate.  There is an important context which must be grasped when dealing with the Arab community. History of the region lacks any form of agreement between the Arabs and their Jewish neighbors, leaving the understanding of a just outcome as being highly divergent between the two groups due to this fact.  Consequently, as Abbas’ Raam party and Abbas in particular have been granted an aura of ‘moderation’ as he speaks about peace and moderation in connection with his Arab neighbors, but the reality is that these words have a fundamentally different context for Abbas and his party than what these terms really mean.

Perhaps someday, the Arabs may come to have an honest appreciation of what the history of the region really is, but until  such an honest awakening takes root, people such as Abbas will use their endorsement of peace with the Jews to pursue ulterior objectives which are altogether misrepresented when publicly endorsing terms of moderation.  As elections are coming, and Abbas is currently calling for Jews to join his party(!), we must all be aware of the reality of what both Abbas and his party honestly represent and the moderation they portend for the Jews in the Jewish state.  Importantly, as Abbas once came to play the ‘moderate’ Arab kingmaker in forming the Bennett-Lapid led govt, he hopes to play a similar role in the coming months.  Perhaps this will be less possible with a fair understanding of the ‘moderation’ which Abbas has in mind as many on the Left like to describes himself to be.

From Israel: A Moral Imperative!!  

Peloni:  It is hard to hear the reports coming out of Iran, and indeed the videos which are emerging raise recollections of the scenes of animalistic butchery which took place on October 7.  Like Arlene, I am still convinced that the promised support for the Iranians is coming.  To think anything else honestly strikes me as being unthinkable.  When it does come, whatever form it takes, Trump’s response must be robust, and encompassing.  The butcher’s bill paid by the many thousands and tens of thousands of Iranian victims who answered Trump’s call to protest deserves nothing less.

Oh Boy…The REAL Reason They Want To Re-Build Gaza Is NOT what it seems!  

Peloni:  Israel alone has any true interest in the establishing peace in Gaza, yet Israel has seemingly no role in what is coming, as the Trump 20 Point Plan is morphing into another Two State Solution while ignoring every benchmark required in Trump’s Plan.  As if the only thing that mattered was that something, no matter how removed from the original deal, flawed as it was, might be said to have been put into practice.  Israel needs to retake Gaza and Gaza needs to establish free emigration for its inhabitants elsewhere, preferably to Jordan and Egypt.

Trump Says China Will ‘Eat Canada up Within a Year’  

Peloni:  See below video for Trump’s most recent Truth Social Posts on Canada moving to secure trade deal with China.  Carney has always been the plaything of the Chinese, meaning that he was always going to support them against Trump.  What a pity that Trump did not put his full support behind Poilievre in the last Canadian election rather than emphasizing his desire to annex Canada as the 51st state…  Curiously, the question arises as to whether this is where we are heading once again now that Trump has secured his needs in Greenland… Was his describing Carney as Gov. Carney more than a slipup in the tweet at the bottom?

Media Host STUNNED When Iranian WHISTLEBLOWER Says This on Live TV!  

Peloni:  The courage which brought this young woman and others to streets, to face down threats of beating, torture rape and murder, continues to be ignored by the Western press.  This, unlike the Astroturf pro Hamas protests, deserves to be publicized, shared widely, and supported by all means possible from abroad.  The victory of the Iranian people will be the victory of the West and the world, and their abandonment will only secure a tragedy for them and the continuation of an assault upon the West by the rogue terror regime in Tehran.  I hope Trump acts, and soon.

On The Way To An ‘Islamic NATO’? Turkey Advances Towards Membership In Saudi-Pakistan Defense Pact  

Peloni:  Was the US extension of blanket protections to Qatar and Saudi Arabia an attempt to offset their forming these type of alliances…

N. Mozes | MEMRI | Jan 21, 2025

In January 2026, there were multiple reports in international and regional media about advanced contacts in the matter of Turkey joining the Strategic Mutual Defense Agreement (SMDA) between Saudi Arabia and Pakistan. Similar to the NATO Treaty, the SMDA, signed September 17, 2025, includes an article stating that any attack on one of the parties is to be considered an attack on the other. This includes Pakistan’s provision of a nuclear umbrella for Saudi Arabia.[1]

* This year is a year of atonement. Atonement for the evil doers, the Palestinian Authority, Jordan’s king, and whoever is left standing around them. Nobody gets spared. Mark my words.
* Do not trust the so-called experts on international television. They are missing what is actually happening on the ground, especially with Jordan’s king.
