Trump is Playing with Fire

USA President Donald J. Trump is known as an astute politician who is aware of the risks of WWIII and understands the need to avoid it. Unfortunately, US policy in recent months has served to exacerbate the risks of WWIII and therefore also the use of tactical nuclear weapons. It is abundantly clear that PresidentContinue reading “Trump is Playing with Fire”

Pivot to Asia

USA President Donald J. Trump is certainly right to put Khamenei on notice that killing protesters will lead to American intervention. In order to create a new deradicalized Middle East the Mullah monster has to be removed once and for all. Successive American presidents have sought a pivot to Asia but persisted in underestimating theContinue reading “Pivot to Asia”

Peace in Lebanon

The current Lebanese government is actively interested in peace with Israel and that is certainly a good thing. However as the Syrian Salafi regime has experienced, peace nowadays will be on Israel’s terms. In order to make peace with Israel – Damascus and Beirut will need to embrace federalism which proved very helpful in promotingContinue reading “Peace in Lebanon”

Trump’s Promise to Muslim Nations is Contingent upon Full Mutual Implementation of the US Peace Plan for Gaza

USA President Donald J. Trump made a promise to leaders of some Muslim nations in the context of what became the 20 point plan for peace in Gaza. President Trump should now emphasize to those leaders that his promise to prevent Israeli application of sovereignty in Judea and Samaria is entirely contingent upon Hamas implementingContinue reading “Trump’s Promise to Muslim Nations is Contingent upon Full Mutual Implementation of the US Peace Plan for Gaza”

Whither Palestinian Interests?

What are Palestinian interests, how are they defined by Palestinian leaders and are Palestinian leaders dangerous demagogues and grifters who are repeating tragic Palestinian history and leading their people down the road of doom, tragedy and exile? How do Palestinian political movements uniformly define Palestinian interests and are there any divergences between them?  All PalestinianContinue reading “Whither Palestinian Interests?”

America’s Future is at Stake

All great nations e.g. Spain (post-1492) and Germany (post-1933) that have embraced Jew hatred have faced degeneration and decline. Why are pro-Jewish nations blessed and anti-Jewish nations cursed?  The answer is simple. Nations that embrace irrational larger explanations such as scapegoating the Jews will inevitably suffer. The Soviet Union was not only Anti-Jewish, it embracedContinue reading “America’s Future is at Stake”

Zionism Vindicated

Jew hatred has once more become legitimized throughout the Western world. There are three consecutive historical and contemporary phases of Jew hatred; Anti-Judaism (Pagan, Christian and Muslim) hates Jews on the basis of religion, Anti-Semitism (in the narrow sense of the term) hates Jews on the basis of race and Anti-Zionism hates Jews on theContinue reading “Zionism Vindicated”

Why Hamas withholds Ran Gvili’s Body

Hamas does not want to disarm and thus seeks to prevent the next phase in the peace process by not releasing deceased hostage Ran Gvili’s body. Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz today announced that Israel will establish indigenous Israeli communities in Gaza. This is what will happen unless Hamas disarms and releases Gvili’s body. ThereContinue reading “Why Hamas withholds Ran Gvili’s Body”

The Problem of War Reporting

Why is war reporting so slanted, populistic and far removed from truth? Other journalists such as those reviewing movies, literature and music are trained specialists in their fields while war reporters in most cases certainly are not. This is terrible where war reporters do not view themselves as such but rather as ”humanitarian activists”, i.e.Continue reading “The Problem of War Reporting”

Ensuring Stability in the Middle East

USA President Donald J. Trump is rightfully committed to diplomatic resolution of hot conflicts around the world, but US diplomacy also needs to become visionary and preemptive in the sense as preventing future wars around the world from breaking out at all. One such risk of war breaking out in the future is between IsraelContinue reading “Ensuring Stability in the Middle East”

The Path to Palestinian Statehood

Under the current circumstances a so-called two-state solution is not possible. Delineating the path towards Palestinian statehood is however possible already at present. It is not true that a Palestinian state is the only solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. An Israeli-Jordanian solution is in principle possible and Jordan wants it although it will not publiclyContinue reading “The Path to Palestinian Statehood”

Stability in Syria

USA President Donald J. Trump is a strong leader who rightly prioritizes stability in Syria. However, without minority rights there will be neither stability nor peaceful coexistence. Israel’s alliance with the regional majorities, ”minority” communities of Syria is as ironclad as the US alliance with Israel. The Druze and the Kurds de facto already ruleContinue reading “Stability in Syria”

Avoiding WWIII

The 28 point plan has its own logic and its hoped-for consequences would appear to be in some ways consistent with American interests. However, this is not so simple as it would appear from the perspective of the current American administration. Washington wants peace at literally any price and does not take European interests intoContinue reading “Avoiding WWIII”

The Iranian Conundrum 

Iran politically resembles a Swiss cheese full of Mossad agents in its cavities both inside the regime and among the opposition. It is no exaggeration to point out that Israel is capable of unleashing a multi-generational popular revolution in Iran. Air strikes against the regime’s political and security infrastructures would undoubtedly trigger a nationwide revolution.Continue reading “The Iranian Conundrum “

The Pathway to Peace

The Twenty Point Peace Plan put Champion of Peace, USA President Donald J. Trump firmly behind Israel’s position of Strategic Victory in Gaza and it worked. The US-Israel special relationship is stronger than ever and crucially more effective than ever before. Although pundits in the media falsely and consistently claim that President Trump’s plan isContinue reading “The Pathway to Peace”

Anti-Zionism is Incompatible with a Two-State Solution

The term antisemitism has two valid meanings. The history of Jew-hatred exhibits three historical stages: 1) The first is Anti-Judaism which targeted Jews because of their religion and so Jews who fully opted out of Judaism also became exempt from Anti-Judaism. 2) The second is antisemitism in the narrow sense which targeted Jews because ofContinue reading “Anti-Zionism is Incompatible with a Two-State Solution”

After the Twenty Point Plan

How will the Hamas thug leaders react to the international peace plan as drawn up by the Trump administration? Hamas will either reject the plan altogether or demand revisions requiring Israeli capitulation as opposed to Hamas’ complete capitulation as required by the international peace plan as supported by Arab and Muslim nations. Even Fatah (surprise,Continue reading “After the Twenty Point Plan”

Witkoff Plan Omits Palestinian De-Radicalization in Judea and Samaria

US envoy Steve Witkoff’s 21 point plan appears to have been written in haste, carelessly and omits the most important aspect, namely de-radicalization in Judea and Samaria and not only in the Gaza Strip.  Furthermore, the PA cannot be offered a state without prior comprehensive de-radicalization, including discrediting of all Jew hatred whether Anti-Judaism (againstContinue reading “Witkoff Plan Omits Palestinian De-Radicalization in Judea and Samaria”

The EU Imposes Master-Slave Morality & Utilitarianism on the Jews

The Zionist movement was launched in the 1890s in no insignificant part by Jewish intellectuals influenced by the pro-Jewish philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche. The idea was to get rid of European slave morality and chart a new route as free people in their own country without neither slave morality nor master morality.   Utilitarianism is aContinue reading “The EU Imposes Master-Slave Morality & Utilitarianism on the Jews”

Saudi Arabia Needs to Rethink its Rhetoric vis-a-vis Israel

MBS needs to seriously reconsider official Saudi rhetoric towards Israel if he wants to gain support in Congress, including a two-thirds majority for a USA-KSA defense treaty in the US Senate. The US Congress is not merely pro-Israel, creating doubt about the Saudi-American-Israeli triangular relationship is myopic to say the least. It is quite understandableContinue reading “Saudi Arabia Needs to Rethink its Rhetoric vis-a-vis Israel”

The US Needs to Pressure Qatar

Is Doha really an ally of Washington? The grim answer is that Qatar behaves like an enemy of the United States of America. Qatar is a geopolitically peculiar country which houses the largest US airbase in CENTCOM and this makes the US highly dependent on Qatar to the degree that the US in the caseContinue reading “The US Needs to Pressure Qatar”

Doha can’t have its Cake and Eat it Too

Qatar has long played a double game of supporting and funding Sunni Islamism such as the global Muslim Brotherhood and a wide range of Sunni Jihadist terrorist organizations around the world while maintaining excellent connections with every state in the world, including Israel, the US and Iran. The apparently successful Israeli elimination of Hamas leadersContinue reading “Doha can’t have its Cake and Eat it Too”

President Trump needs to Speak Up

Israel is under global pressure to prematurely agree to the creation of a Palestinian state even without deradicalization of Palestinian society and without defensible borders for Israel. What scenario would inevitably play out? Hamas would take over Judea and Samaria since there is no chance for survival of the Abbas regime without the Israeli militaryContinue reading “President Trump needs to Speak Up”

Peace on Israel’s Terms

Israeli governments have historically created a pattern where they were ready to cede and indeed expected to cede the optimum in negotiations with Arab interlocutors for negotiation. This created excessive, indeed optimal expectations among those negotiating with Israel. The question that needs to be asked is who needs peace the most, Israel or Arab governments? Continue reading “Peace on Israel’s Terms”

There is still no Palestinian Partner for Peace Yet

Mahmoud Abbas the dictator and his international allies demand to unconditionally receive a Palestinian state at the Israeli-Jordanian 1949 armistice lines, an agreement which specifically specified that these should not be misconstrued as borders. US president Donald J. Trump is right and justified to not issue American entry visas to the Palestinian Authority delegation forContinue reading “There is still no Palestinian Partner for Peace Yet”

Washington and Jerusalem need a Joint Iran Strategy

Israel and America’s 12-day war against the Mullah regime was very successful yet will have to be repeated two years from now against Iran’s rebuilt nuclear weapons program. President Donald J. Trump needs to carefully reconsider his opposition to helping unseat the totalitarian clerical tyranny.  What would happen in Iran if there were a successfulContinue reading “Washington and Jerusalem need a Joint Iran Strategy”

AI and Gaza

International leaders have expressed their shock over ostensibly starving children in Gaza. The Hamas ”starvation” campaign is nearly as old as this war and is effective in many countries because it evokes the medieval blood libel accusing Jews of killing non-Jewish children in order to drink their blood. It turned out that depicted children hadContinue reading “AI and Gaza”

Israel Applying Sovereignty will Bring Lasting Peace

According to a poll in recent months, 50% of the population of the strip wish to leave Gaza and emigrate to another country. It is highly likely that the humanitarian crisis means that most of the other half of the population wish to emigrate as well to avoid further suffering. Champion of peace, US presidentContinue reading “Israel Applying Sovereignty will Bring Lasting Peace”

Israel Promotes American Interests in the Middle East

There is a growing view in Europe among leaders and diplomats, particularly in France that Israel has become too strong and victorious and ”must be put in its proper place”, meaning the weak and dead Jews rather than free and strong and in pursuit of joint American-Israeli interests. Europeans should be told in no uncertainContinue reading “Israel Promotes American Interests in the Middle East”

No to Forever Wars in Gaza

Why has the Gaza war gone on as long as it has? Israel was under pressure from the Biden administration which long prevented an Israeli victory. Israel must liberate the entire Gaza region from Hamas thugs and thus stabilize the area. Will this end the conflict? Not quite. However concentrating Gazans to the Rafah areaContinue reading “No to Forever Wars in Gaza”

Washington Should Threaten the EU with Consequences

It is a key US interest that Israel wins the Gaza war, ends the Hamas terrorist regime, safely relocates those Gazans who wish to relocate to yet other countries, establishes peace in the area and that Israel remains prosperous and strong. This is the way to end the current suffering and insecurity. The alternative asContinue reading “Washington Should Threaten the EU with Consequences”

Remove MENA Category

The intention behind the 2024 Biden administration decision to officially categorize Americans from the Middle East and North Africa region (MENA) as a distinct statistical category separate from ”whites” was antisemitic in intention. The decision was the result of extensive pressure on the Biden administration by the Islamist lobby such as the Muslim Brotherhood outfitContinue reading “Remove MENA Category”

America First Means Bombing Fordow

The US can not tolerate the Mullah regime acquiring nuclear weapons and so the US must take out the Fordow Fuel Enrichment Plant with MOABs since this is beyond Israel’s capacity as Jerusalem has neither B2 aircraft nor MOABs. Iran means what it says when it calls the US the ”Great Satan” and chant ”DeathContinue reading “America First Means Bombing Fordow”

Why NATO Military Intervention in Ukraine won’t Lead to WWIII

Why have NATO countries not already militarily intervened in Ukraine? The reason is highly effective Russian strategic deterrence. The blatant fear in the West is that Russia will invade the EU, but that is impossible as long as Russian forces are stuck in Ukraine. As long as the Ukraine war goes on the EU isContinue reading “Why NATO Military Intervention in Ukraine won’t Lead to WWIII”

President Trump is Very Smart but the Mullahs are Smarter

President Trump has made a life career in business from being the smartest person in the room, however this does not work when confronted with people who are even smarter. This is what happened to the Iranian file. The American negotiators are showing weakness by not understanding that the Iranian regime will outsmart any internationalContinue reading “President Trump is Very Smart but the Mullahs are Smarter”

The US Russia Strategy Doesn’t Work

The US needs a different Russia strategy as the current one simply does not work. Appeasing Russia did not work, rather the effect is that of whetting Russia’s appetite for territorial conquest of the European Union; i.e. WWIII, something which the US must strive to avoid at any and all cost. Rather, the abject USContinue reading “The US Russia Strategy Doesn’t Work”

Saving the Masalit People

The Rapid Support Forces (RSF) perpetrates genocide through repeated massacres against the Masalit people in West Darfur, Sudan. People of conscience everywhere must rise to action and indeed affirm that Black lives matter. Nations that do care about the lives of Black Africans (most people obviously do not) could send forces to protect the Masalit.Continue reading “Saving the Masalit People”

Existential War

Some wars are not existential, others are. Why is it that NATO does not deter Russia considering Russia’s plans for conquering the European Union? The answer is that the Chinese threat trumps Western defenses. The entire Russia outside of the major cities is thinly populated and thus suitable for Han (Sinitic, ethnically Chinese) colonization. ThisContinue reading “Existential War”

Rejecting Divide and Rule

Erdogan the tyrant feels truly threatened by Israel’s alliance with the Kurds and hence his recent gambit to break up this alliance through divide and rule. Deals with the Devil cannot be trusted as the Kurds know well and Erdogan and MHP surely plan to abandon the Kurds and deprive them of rights once moreContinue reading “Rejecting Divide and Rule”

European Forces are Needed to Defend Siberia

The West has for decades since the end of the Cold War mismanaged the Russia file. Early on, Putin wanted Russia to join NATO and the EU but was rebuffed by the Europeans. A Swedish diplomat told me that Russia was ”too big” for EU membership. Obviously, Russian membership in NATO and the EU wouldContinue reading “European Forces are Needed to Defend Siberia”

Restoring Liberal Democracy in Israel

The nation of Israel faces a looming political war between two democratically illegitimate entities. One which has almost destroyed democracy and turned it into puppet theater and one that seeks to destroy what is left through ”Hungarization”. Neither of the two camps are the good guys. Nor is the opposition in the Knesset good guysContinue reading “Restoring Liberal Democracy in Israel”

The Emperor has no Clothes

Someone has to tell the truth and in this case this task falls on me. There are two climate crises. The first climate crisis is well-known and involves massive climate change and subsequently future mass extinction of species. The second climate crisis involves how politicians respond to climate change and this is the most urgentContinue reading “The Emperor has no Clothes”

Understanding Israel’s Deep State

Israel’s Deep State is run by Modern Orthodox Religious Zionists but to say that the Deep State is rightwing would be a misstatement. Israel’s Deep State represent what they understand as the deeper national interest and is extremely active in all streams of Zionism. The Deep State rightly believes that it is a national interestContinue reading “Understanding Israel’s Deep State”
