Twenty-five years after September 11, 2001, even amid the horrors revisited throughout American media, much of America has hit the snooze button on what happened, and the threat that still exists. The memorials were everywhere. The videos were everywhere. Testimonies of survivors were everywhere.

When pop icons step off the stage and onto the global political soapbox, they frequently rely on a weaponized form of historical amnesia.
PELONI: It is a mark of the sordid depravity of our current age to see foodstuffs intended for starving children and famine zones to instead be gifted to terror regimes which supplements their ongoing menacing efforts at murdering the Jews of Israelis while also subjugating and abusing the people in Gaza, despite their being complicit in their own state of capture. Notably, as an economic chokehold is being placed around Iran and hopes are voiced of seeing regime change take place, the Iranian proxy in Gaza is being fed daily with misappropriated famine relief so as to keep it in power. This outrage has to be ended. There is no famine in Gaza, and there never was, but there is a terror regime there which should be richly rewarded with a state of siege which has thus far been made impossible as it is fed with a daily stream of food that would otherwise benefit the Druze, the Sudanese or countless other needy populations.
Those 600 trucks of aid that enter the Gaza Strip each day should go to the Druze, not to Hamas.

Six hundred trucks loaded with humanitarian supplies, are directed into the Gaza Strip every day, where Hamas – a designated terrorist organization – controls the distribution of goods. That is not a minor logistical detail. When an armed militant group controls what comes in and who gets it, calling the delivery “humanitarian” requires a generous stretch of the word. Ownership of those 600 trucks enables Hamas to extend the imprisonment of the vast majority of Gazans who wish to escape from the Hell that Hamas created.

Robert Kraft called out antisemitism. The backlash brought “Zionist lobbies,” wealth, power and other age-old antisemitic tropes.

Key Takeaways:
LINDA GOUDSMIT: We are a world at war: Globalism vs. Nation-states. The globalist elite are funding and fomenting the red/green Marxist (progressive)/Muslim axis to collapse America, Israel, and every other Western nation from within. The globalist elite seek Iranian hegemony in the Middle East which is why they support President Trump’s ludicrous “Board of Peace.” There can be no peace with Islam. Islam is NOT a religion like any other. Islam is doctrinally a binary, supremacist, totalitarian, expansionist replacement ideology with a religious wing and a singular goal of CONQUEST––not assimilation. Until POTUS recognizes what Israel has known since 1948, there will be no peace in the ME. The Iranian terrorist regime must be dismantled and destroyed––unconditional surrender––just like the Japanese in WWII.

What Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and US President Donald J. Trump have been doing is not just battling terrorist groups; they have been preventing these groups from achieving their main goal: taking over Western civilization.

Here is another story most Jews are not hearing about, because too much of the Jewish and Israeli media would rather attack fellow Jews than report about our actual enemy: the jihadis.
Have you heard that Israeli Arabs have been protesting in the Galil? Have you heard why? Because a Jewish farm went up on JNF land in the Galil.

It is a rare occurrence when a topic is closed and finished after I have addressed it in just one posting. And so it is, with regard to the horrendous NAZA “documentary” – the focus of my last posting – that there is a good deal more to consider…

Clashes between Egyptian and Israeli forces, Yom Kippur War. By Unknown author – Gate.ahram.org.eg, Public Domain, Link
This year, as we remember the Yom Kippur War, far too many of us cannot help but feel disconnected from it because it happened so long ago—even as we stand just three years away from the October 7th Hamas-led attack. What can we do to mark the anniversary of the 1973 war in a meaningful way?

First, the good news!!! The Trump administration just barred Mahmoud Abbas from New York for the second year, so he can’t attend the United Nations General Assembly.
The State Department did not dress it up. The PA and the PLO, it said, are still internationalizing the war against Israel at the international institutions of the ICC and the ICJ, still chasing unilateral statehood, still paying stipends to terrorists’ families, still glorifying killers in speeches and school textbooks, and still refusing the reforms they promised Washington.
Pelon: The key to the Saudis dealing with the crisis in the Bab Al-Mandeb Strait is thru the coordination with the very nations which Saudi Arabia has recently alienated over the past months. The US needs to act as a bridge by which these interests come to be perfectly aligned, but without the costs previously demanded by Riyadh including the creation of a second Palestinian state. The situational cost of having lost control over this vital waterway has placed the Saudis in an impossible situation, but it will only remain impossible so long as they cling to networking with Islamists such as Turkey and Qatar and Somalia in place of Israel, the UAE and Somaliland. It’s time for Saudi Arabia to make some important changes.

There is a not well-known Asian proverb that says, “Every Problem Brings with It a Gift.” That is particularly true here. These are the important takeaways from the Bab Al-Mandeb Crisis.
The dream of a return to Zion and the Holy Temple is the engine that created the momentum harnessed by the modern Zionism of Herzl’s time and used to create the modern State of Israel.

Peloni: Gen. Amir Avivi discusses the recent Middle East Summit which included the US, Israel and the Arab states, and the subject was focused on Iran. He also warns that the next October 7 will be inside Israel, not on the borders, and what steps must be pursued to deal with this threat if not prevent it.
