New York City has not only just experienced yet another jihad terror attack; it also has just given us a particularly revolting example of the leftist tactic of DARVO: Deny, Attack, Reverse Victim and Offender. In New York and in the establishment media today, when Islamic jihadis strike, it’s another instance of “Islamophobia” and Muslims are the victims.

Lebanon Weighs Legal Action Against Hezbollah’s Chief as Israel’s Northern Front Turns Deadly  

Peloni:  The chatter about legal actions by the Lebanese govt against Hezbollah should be given the same level of disregard which Lebanon has earned in threatening to disarm Hezbollah for decades, most recently failing to act on the latest iteration of this comedy hour routine missed yet one more deadline imposed on Lebanon to do so.  Action rather than words will revolutionize the situation in Lebanon, yet the Lebanese govt has neither the political will nor the military capacity to throw off the yoke of Iranian capture which has held Lebanon helplessly in its grip over the past decades.  This, however, should be understood to be a failure of the international community, most recently led by the efforts of US Amb. Tom Barrack, who has consistently claimed Lebanon could and would do what remains impossible for Lebanon to contemplate:  acting upon their own sovereign interests while being occupied and controlled by an Iranian proxy force while it still infiltrates its population, its political infrastructure, and most importantly its military capabilities.

Meanwhile Jolani’s Syrian forces are massing on Lebanon’s border under the guise of ‘border security,’ belying the greater interest which the Turkish proxy in Syria  would have in extending Turkey’s conquest to next include Lebanon where the Muslim Brotherhood might next focus its unopposed slaughter of non-Sunni Muslim minorities.  It was a vital mistake for Washington to support Turkey’s suzerainty over Syria, the implications of which pose to have a serious impact on the future of Lebanon.

As if the irony of having the Lebanese tell the world what they want to hear was not evident enough in the below report, see this latest amusing article about Lebanon now offering peace with Israel, if only Israel would end its campaign against Hezbollah.  Actions, not words, is what will determine Lebanon’ fate, yet cheap talk is all that Lebanon has to offer anyone.

Mark Dubowitz | Mar 8, 2026

Reports from Beirut suggest Lebanese Justice Minister Adel Nassar is considering “legal action” against Hezbollah’s leader, Naim Qassem.

What would Tucker Carlson learn at my Passover seder table?  

Every Jewish prayer service contains liturgy that consistently speaks about Jerusalem and the Holy Temple.

“Chabad has been pushing in a pretty subtle way, unless you look carefully, for the reconstruction of the Third Temple.” — Tucker Carlson, March 4, 2026

If this year, former Fox News host and current podcaster Tucker Carlson were to attend a traditional Passover seder, like the one my family and I celebrate, he would learn that Chabad’s yearning for the building of the Third Temple is not something outside of mainstream Jewish thought. It lies at the very core of it and has done so ever since that darkest of days when the Second Temple in Jerusalem was destroyed by the Romans.

RAPE? ASSAULT? HARASSMENT? A COLLOSAL CONGRESSIONAL COVERUP!  

Kelleigh Nelson

The problem was with Bill Clinton, the scandals and rumored scandals, the incubating ones and the dying ones never ended. Whatever moral compass the president was consulting was leading him in the wrong direction. His closets were full of skeletons just waiting to burst out. Louis Freeh

Today they voted to keep sexual harassment records buried, and they did it together. The establishment always protects itself, never the victims. Rep. Nancy Mace

I don’t night-club, don’t get into fights or scandals, don’t own a yacht, don’t play the horses, don’t wear plaid overcoats, don’t go to Hollywood parties, don’t own a motorcycle, don’t run back and forth to New York, don’t go in for politics. Fred MacMurray (smart man)

A little over a week into the latest Iran War and certain patterns are emerging. But while they may be evident today, that does not mean that they reveal the war’s ultimate outcome. Victory or defeat can be one bold strike away – Normandy, Kursk, Dien Bien Phu, 1980s Operation Eagle Claw in the Iranian Desert all come to mind.

Saudi Arabia warns Tehran against retaliation after downing multiple Iranian drones  

All Israel News Staff | Published: March 8, 2026

Saudi Arabia reportedly warned Iran on Saturday against further attacks on Saudi soil, unnamed diplomatic sources revealed.

The kingdom, which downed nine Iranian drones, signaled that it prefers a diplomatic solution to the Iranian attacks on its Gulf Arab neighbors following the U.S. and Israeli strikes on Iran that began on Feb. 28. However, Saudi officials warned that the country would respond militarily to continued Iranian attacks, especially if they targeted Saudi Arabia’s critically important energy sector.

What Gain is there if We Kill Our Brother?  

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.

Turkey’s Iran strategy is to ‘preserve’ the mullahs’ regime  

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:

Qalibaf the monster  

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.

Resisting Islam  

By Sha’i ben-Tekoa 

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.
