Peloni:  The UAE is committed to eliminating the threat of the Muslim Brotherhood in its own borders, and has employed a strategy which fails to employ such a rigid focus against radicalism beyond their own realm, which is why they spent two years opposing Israel from dealing a fatal blow to Hamas, and why they aligned with the radicals as it brought Israel before the UNSC on fake charges of condemning Israel just because an Israeli Minister visited the Temple Mount. Relevantly, the UAE is supporting the Trump strategy of only targeting a partial list including only some of the Muslim Brotherhood Chapters.  This attempt of half baked measures only serves to support the threat which Jihadism poses, to the UAE, and to the US, as it ignores the reality that Jihad seeks no borders, no divisions, and no bargains.  Instead, their goal is to include the entire world in their vision of conquest under a world wide caliphate, and the choice to lend support or tolerance to any aspect of these Jihadis or their goal only makes this goal all the more possible.  The Brotherhood and their policies need to be opposed by the moderate Sunni nations such as the UAE, but also by the Western nations such as the US.  Failing to appreciate the importance of seeing a cancer as cancerous only establishes the malignancy to spread and thrive beyond the relative boundaries which are selectively deemed as taboo.  As is evident here in this article, no bargains with this scourge will long protect those who enter into such arranged marriages of convenience.

The Trump administration’s intention to designate the branches of the Muslim Brotherhood (MB) in Egypt, Jordan and Lebanon as terrorist organizations has heightened tensions in the Arab world between supporters of the MB and its opponents. As part of this tension, two senior MB figures who are also members of the International Union of Muslim Scholars (IUMS), an arm of the Qatari regime for disseminating extremist Islamist, anti-Western and antisemitic ideology,[1] attacked the UAE over its positions and policies against the MB and its support for Trump’s initiative.

• According to critics, this framework [the European Union’s Digital Services Act (DSA)] effectively forces American platforms to act as “speech police” on behalf of the EU, under the constant threat of severe sanctions. In doing so, the DSA produces extraterritorial effects that extend well beyond Europe. This point is crucial: any American user of X, for instance, can be sanctioned by X for expressing opinions on the platform. In practice, the DSA is thus applied to all Americans. This requirement constitutes a clear instance of the normative imperialism that has characterized the EU for the past 20 years.

Peloni:  The foul sickness of Jew Hatred which has taken hold in the psyches of many in our current age is a frightening and growing event.  Where it might lead and how it might end is clearly uncertain at this point, but if past proves prophetic as is too often true, we are facing an ever greater calamity which will forever cast a shade of shame for those inheriting the mantle of the Greatest Generation which recognized this soiling scourge as a clear death knell of morality and decency.  As the chants for the annihilation of the Jews of Israel are followed by Jew Hunts in Amsterdam, Jew Shaming in Harvard, Jew Ransoming in Gaza and Jew Slaughter in Australia, the grand old generation which made an easy transition from defeating the Nazis to defying the Communists could only look down in shame at the rogues which are filling the streets of the modern world which were paved with the cost and privilege of facing down the very evil which is today made more and more commonplace among people we know and whom we once considered to be honest and good folks, only to find that they have morphed into the fountains of Jew Hating propaganda which would have made them the pride of Goebbles.

The charge was as ugly as it was predictable, reaching reflexively for conspiracy when accountability proved inconvenient.

The first reaction from Nicolás Maduro’s allies was not denial, reflection or even outrage over the mechanics of his reported rendition. It was an accusation. Almost immediately, regime figures and sympathetic outlets claimed the operation bore “Zionist fingerprints”—that it was inspired, guided or orchestrated by Israel. The charge was as ugly as it was predictable, reaching reflexively for conspiracy when accountability proved inconvenient.

Peloni:  It is one of the great perversions of our age that the Muslim Brotherhood Turks would expect, much less be offered, any position within the key strategic position in Gaza.  While this was always true, the relevance of the threat of offering them such close access to Israel becomes all the more obtuse and obviously unacceptable when the statements of Erdogan’s intent of retaking Jerusalem lies fresh upon the headlines.  This, in combination with their close association with Jolani’s Syrian govt, an association reaffirmed in recent days as the conquest of the Kurds has been put into play, should make any suggestion of Turkey taking a role in Gaza to be completely inexplicable.

Pro-Israel organization says Turkey’s documented support for Hamas disqualifies Ankara from participation in post war Gaza security or reconstruction efforts.

NEW YORK — A leading pro-Israel organization has come out strongly against the possible deployment of Turkish soldiers to Gaza as part of a proposed International Stabilization Force, warning that Ankara’s longstanding ties to Hamas make it fundamentally unfit to play any role in Gaza’s future security or reconstruction.

Opponents of socialism often cite Cuba, Venezuela, and the former Soviet Union as evidence that the system “doesn’t work.” They argue that, unlike earlier economic arrangements — slavery, feudalism, and capitalism — each of which was explicitly organized around producing wealth, and each of those systems was superior to its predecessor in its capacity to generate it, socialism has failed to create a higher level of economic prosperity.

Peloni: As the Iranian regime cuts off all connection with the outside world, they sent in regular IRGC troops to shut down the riots as they play reruns of their favorite podcaster, TUCKER CARLSON.  Of course, why wouldn’t the Mullahs promote propaganda which supports their grip on power when that grip is at meeting its greatest challenge, arguably ever.

In Iran right now:

• No internet
• No phone calls
• No communication with the outside world

Yet the Islamic regime’s main state broadcaster is airing and promoting Tucker Carlson.

Peloni:  The path towards peace will be best served by Israel recognizing and focusing on its own strengths.  Eliminating foreign capacities while maximizing Israeli strength and willingness to employ that strength with devastating efficiency is what will bring peace.  Having cooperative partners in power throughout the region within whom to effect such a peace is likewise necessary, as recognizing that Muslim Brotherhood idealogues will never accept peace under any circumstance other than that of a hudna, making such negotiations a fool’s errand as Sha’i explains below.

The list of peace plans for the Jewish nation in the land they brought back to life is lengthy. The first was 1922’s League of Nations’ Palestine Mandate that twice referenced the “historical connection of the Jewish people with Palestine” as the “grounds for reconstituting their national home in that country.”

A major part of any leadership, which greedy, self-serving globalist politicians have forgotten (if they ever knew it at all), is to protect a country’s citizens. Israel has faced an existential threat since the day of its founding from the neighboring Muslim countries. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is unwavering in his leadership. His focus on Iran and the Muslim Brotherhood, both of which seek to annihilate the Jewish state, is prudent. “Netanyahu vows to block Iran’s nuclear ambitions, accuses opposition of courting Muslim Brotherhood,” by Keshet Neev, Jerusalem Post, January 5, 2026:

Peloni:  There can be no substitute for the extension of sovereignty over Israel’s heartlands.  This is the point raised by the Sovereignty Movement’s Nadia Matar in an interview with JNS.  Nadia makes the case so well as described here.  Everything that has been achieved in Judea and Samaria could and likely will be undone with the next rise of a Leftist govt.  To defeat this very real threat, the Israeli govt has only to do as it should have done on the day following the Six Day War, ie extending sovereignty over these lands by Israel which is the only entity which has an internationally recognized right to do so.

Peloni:  Mike Doran and Yishai Fleisher give a detailed look back over the past year.  As they do so, Mike discusses how the Israeli military has no interest in removing Hamas as it would only create a void for something similar to fill.  What he fails to address is that this is the very opposite of what Netanyahu has pledged, and is still holding firm, on accomplishing.  The conflict on this point exists between the upper eschelons of the Israeli military brass and the Americans on one side, with Israel’s political govt and the Israeli people on the other, making for an interesting segue into 2026.  Much more than this is covered in this conversation.
