17:10 – Israel hit by additional barrage of missiles from Lebanon
Israel was hit by a barrage of missiles from Lebanon, with no reports of impact received by the country’s national emergency medical service.
Peloni: President Herzog’s continued attempts to refuse to offer an uncompromising pardon to Bibi belies the political tragedy which has accompanied the weaponizing of legal and judicial norms in the never ending persecution of PM Netanyahu. More than this, however, as Ari Bussel explains below, it is a fools errand, as Trump is set upon having his way on this matter, and it is unlikely that he will fail in seeing the attempts of the Lawfare driven theatrics continue to compromise his partnership with Israel simply to abate the malicious and fantastical dreams of Herzog’s Leftist allies to see Netanyahu’s successes abruptly ended.

Honorable President Herzog,
The President of the United States is not looking for a dancing partner – you are not his type. President Trump is also not looking for excuses and failures – he used to rid himself of such nuisance each episode of The Apprentice by announcing to the world “You are Fired!” and that was years ago.
Peloni: This is an important article which details the quiet but significant Jihadi goals being pursued by Erdogan in its efforts to save the Mullahs from their well deserved and hopefully soon eradication.

In the face of the current war on Iran, Turkey has been unusually quiet. Beyond calling for an immediate end to the war, along with China and Russia, it intercepted an Iranian ballistic missile over its territory on March 4, and merely echoed unavailing calls for “diplomacy” rather than joining in the long-overdue strike on Iran aimed at crippling its advanced military capabilities. But now comes a more realistic report about Turkey, reflective of its identity. “Turkey’s Iran strategy: Preserve the mullah regime — or ensure its successor remains anti-Western,” by Abdullah Bozkurt, Nordic Monitor, March 8, 2026:
Peloni: In fact, the apparent desperation which might lead the mischaracterization of Muhammad Baqr Qalibaf as being a reformer speaks of the clear lack of ‘reform’ candidates available from within the IRGC hierarchy. This gains ever greater concern for Washington’s policy to pursue regime transformation as recently described by Mike Doran, as opposed to pursuing what might be a wiser path of choosing a new leader for Iran who is altogether unsoiled by any connection to the existing regime.

Over the last few days, the name of Muhammad Baqr Qalibaf, the former mayor of Tehran, keeps bubbling up as some sort of “Delcy Rodriguez” type figure, namely a relatively “moderate” regime figure with whom we might be able to do business were the government to fall to his control. Moreover, there are voices in Iran itself maneuvering to install Qalibaf instead of Mojtada Khamenei, son of the late, Ali Khamenei as the new Supreme Leader.

What follows is drawn from a piece that ran on Israpundit on February 13. Added at the end are some fresh words on how to deal with the menace of Islam invading liberal democracies.
First, there was the disconcerting news of a Muslim-only community being built in East Plano, Texas, and then Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton announced his office had launched a formal investigation into a similar project for a sharia compliant city for 20,000 foreign nationals in rural Kaufman County, backed with Saudi money.
Claims that Zionism is aligned with antisemitism or white supremacy distort history, endanger Jews, and revive some of the oldest libels ever used against the Jewish people.

In an era of rising antisemitism and ideological extremism, it is no small matter when organizations claiming to speak in the name of justice recycle accusations that place Jews and Jewish self-determination at the center of global evil. Recent claims by Jewish Voices for Peace that Zionism is aligned with white supremacy, Christian nationalism, and fascism are not only false but also echo classic antisemitic tropes that have endangered Jews for centuries.

There are several fallacies being bruited about concerning the defensive war of the US and Israeli against Iran. Make no mistake about it; this is indeed a defensive war. Both the Big Satan and the Little Satan have been threatened not over the years but rather the decades. There have been incessant calls for “Death to the U.S.” and “Death to the Zionist ‘Entity.’” This is defense, not offense. Every attendee at all basketball games full well knows the difference between the two. Too bad it has escaped antisemites the world over.

New York City was rocked today when two Muslim terrorists —Amir Balat, 18, and Ibrahim Nick, 19— threw a homemade explosive device filled with nails, bolts, and screws toward a crowd of protesters while shouting “Allahu Akbar.” The incident has reignited concerns about Islamic violence and public safety in a city that once set the standard for law and order. For many residents, the question is no longer whether authorities are aware of the threat—but whether they are willing to confront it head-on.
Police are investigating a string of shootings at synagogues in the Toronto area, while Montreal police are probing antisemitic vandalism after swastikas were painted on several Saint-Laurent business windows.

Police are investigating three separate synagogue shootings in the Toronto area within less than a week, including two overnight attacks on Saturday, while Montreal police are separately probing antisemitic vandalism after swastikas were painted on the windows of several businesses in Saint-Laurent. The incidents have intensified concern over anti-Jewish violence in Canada at a time of already heightened security anxiety in Jewish communities.
Peloni: The war widens, new targets are struck, and new forces are responding over the skies of Iran.

Unbelievable!!!
For decades, the geopolitical logic of the Middle East seemed simple.
Israel had no natural resources.
The surrounding Arab and Muslim countries had oil.

Before September 11, 2001, most Americans had little knowledge of Islam and its history of violent expansionism. Most Americans were stunned and confused by the lethal attack on our homeland that killed 3,000 innocents at the World Trade Center Twin Towers in New York City. Knowledge is power, and our lack of knowledge about Islam made it easy for many Americans to believe the first and second colossal political lies of the 21st-century: Islam is a religion of peace, and Islam is a religion like any other. It isn’t.

After doing nothing but joining others in blaming Israel for its own victimization in the wake of being wantonly attacked on October 7th, 2023 by Hamas and just “ordinary” Arab butchers, slaughtering the equivalent of 40, 000 American civilians, Great Britain has continued, largely due to petroleum addiction, to pretend that it didn’t realize the hypocrisy and double standards it routinely uses to judge Israel by.
In former times, 19th and early 20th century pro-Zionist leaders such as Lord Shaftesbury, David Lloyd George, Sir Mark Sykes, Lord Palmerston, Benjamin Disraeli, and Arthur Balfour helped enable the Jewish People to regain hope that their 2,000 year old dream for the restoration of their independent ancestral nation in Zion (referring firstly to Jerusalem, but then including all of Israel as well) would come to fruition.
Peloni: This concurs with Netanyahu stating that he wants Iran free and united, indicating no support for the separatist movements in Iran such as the that of the Kurds. And as always, the Kurds are left without support for their own state.
“I don’t want to see the Kurds get hurt and killed. And we’ve had a good relationship. They’re willing to go in. But we really, I’ve told them I don’t want them to go in,” the US president said.

We cover “There was no Imminent Threat?” from the same retrogrades who told us “There was no WMD in Iraq.” Actually, there was! And there was an imminent threat too!
WHACK-A-MOLE!
As with HAMAS, as with HEZBOLLAH, we killed the leaders. Then we killed the replacements for the leaders. And then we killed the replacements for the replacements. Next, we will kill the replacements of the replacements of the replacements. Taquar Qatarlson calls it Replacement Ideology.
Winning a war means totally subjugating your enemy.
