A complaint I hear increasingly leveled at contemporary American politicians is that they are out of touch with voters, if not downright contemptuous of them. On a number of core issues, politicians seem less concerned with pursuing policies that are deeply unpopular with ordinary Americans than with upholding the ideologies and self-interests of the ruling elite. Two dramatic examples of this political disconnect with average citizens are the refusal of urban governments to prosecute violent criminals, which has caused a surge in crime, and the White House’s tolerance of mass immigration, which threatens jobs, security, and the rule of law.
E. Rowell: The Biden Administration is racing to register non-citizens to vote in massive numbers. They are attempting to prevent Donald Trump from winning by four scandalous and absurd lawfare cases in which the process is the punishment. They hope no one will vote for a man convicted of a crime. They are attempting to create a democrat majority in the House of Representatives through “retirement” of RINOs in order to pass legislation that will make Trump “guilty” of “insurrection” and thus ineligible for the Presidency, should he win the electoral college vote. They see Congress for the corrupt group that they are, stripping Americans of their right to representation by representing their billionaire donors not their constituents. They have even talked of assassination of Trump. The voters see all of this for what it is: an evil, satanic effort to destroy the Republic and We the People.

Any political prediction for the remainder of 2024 must, to be taken seriously, account for one overbearing fact: neither side can afford to lose. For one side or the other, it will be game over. Political power will thereafter be denied forever to the defeated party.

For 76 years, through combined military campaigns, sustained economic boycott, terrorist massacres, diplomatic isolation, and religious incitement, a changing constellation of pan-Arab and Islamist forces has been trying to destroy the Jewish state. So far they have failed. Israel fought off the bombardment from Iran and its proxies as it has the earlier assaults, thereby incidentally giving its friends and allies much to learn about new weaponry, tactics, and the pros and cons of moral restraint in battle.
Amit Halevi, Washington Times April 22, 2024
Saudi Arabia’s official stance on the concept of a Palestinian state has undergone a notable shift in recent weeks. Since the Abraham Accords, Saudi Arabia has portrayed such a state as a distant, nebulous objective, leaving the impression of mere lip service.
Mounting pressure from the White House and certain segments of Saudi society, however, has compelled it to formally endorse the recognition of a Palestinian state. This move aligns with plans outlined in the “Arab Vision” document of the Forum of 6 made up of Jordan, Egypt, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, the Palestinian Authority and Saudi Arabia itself.
Peloni: UNWRA must be ended. Its presence in Gaza and elsewhere has always been to foment a forever generational war against the Jewish people. In fact, the continuation of UN support for this evil institution demonstrates the same level of pernicious intent against the Jewish people as did the establishment of that organization which was intended to specifically, and exclusively, extend the 1948 War into the future so as to overcome the Israeli victory over the Arabs. The malicious weaponization of the Pals to this purpose demonstrates the extensively antisemitic nature of the UN in its singular approach to preserving and expanding and radicalizing the Pal refugee crisis. UNRWA must be defunded, disbanded and deported, save for those members who are not charged for their relevant crimes against the Jewish people. We no longer live in October 6, and it is time to deal honestly and effectively with the matters which made October 7 inevitable. Notably, UNRWA, it should be noted, was just one of these matters.
“Hamas has infiltrated UNRWA so deeply that it is no longer possible to determine where UNRWA ends and where Hamas begins,” a ministry spokesman said.

In an incredible and rare admission, Fatah has corroborated what Israel has been saying all along: that Hamas is responsible for turmoil connected to the distribution of humanitarian aid sent into Gaza.
A Fatah TV anchor reported that throughout the war, Hamas has been committing what is essentially a triple crime — it has attacked and killed aid workers in order to control aid distribution, stolen the food and water for itself, and caused food prices to skyrocket. Read more…

Netzah Yehuda Battalion recruits and their families at a swearing-in ceremony at the Kotel, May 17, 2023.
This past year, the Netzah Yehuda battalion operated in three different sectors: in the north, Gaza, and Judea and Samaria––where most of its activities have been carried out over the years. About a month ago, following the IDF’s satisfaction with the fighters and as the battalion was moved up to the front in the Gaza Envelope, the commander of the ground forces decided to turn the battalion into a maneuvering combat unit for the first time.

As Breitbart News reported, citing Axios’ Barak Ravid, the Biden administration is set to announce sanctions on Netzach Yehudah (“Judea Forever”), a unit that includes ultra-Orthodox soldiers, who are exempt from the draft.
The sanctions relate to allegations from well before the war that began with the Hamas terror attack on October 7. Netzach Yehudah had since been relocated from the West Bank to the Golan Heights — and is now fighting in Gaza.

On October 7, 2023, the grisly gangs of Hamas terrorists launched a violent assault on Israel, indiscriminately raping and killing women and children, torturing its soldiers, and taking hostages. The sheer brutality of the attack stunned Israel. Despite Israel’s subsequent massive bombardment and ground invasion of Gaza, six months later, the Israeli-stated objectives of eradicating Hamas and releasing hostages remain as elusive as ever.

Peloni: It is well past time for the anti-Constitutional legitimization of mandated discriminatory practices of DEI be struck down. What the Court has done here, however, places those corporations who support such descriminatory practices as being subject to lawsuit for ” “some harm” under the terms of their employment, AND that harm need not be “material,” “substantial” or “serious.” “
Freedom Piper, X April 21, 2024
In a landmark 9-0 ruling on Wednesday that you will never hear about in the media, the US Supreme Court has undercut all DEI-based discrimination, sending the Marxists into a tizzy.
The US Supreme Court’s ruling that a St. Louis police sergeant can sue over a job transfer she claims was discriminatory lays the foundation for legal action against employers who push discrimination against white people in job hiring, work assignment and promotion. That’s right, those “diversity-preferred” job postings, the practice of passing over whites for promotions, discriminatory job transfers, pushing unfair diversity trainings, etc…all of these are now legally actionable.

It would be political suicide for Benjamin Netanyahu to follow Joe Biden’s advice.
By Walter Russell Mead, WSJ April 15/24
“Take the win,” President Biden reportedly advised Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu after Iran’s unprecedented missile and drone attacks against Israel sputtered shambolically to an ignominious end.
As the world waits on tenterhooks for Israel’s response, two things seemed clear. It would be political suicide for Mr. Netanyahu to take the president’s advice, and it would be national suicide for any Israeli prime minister to do so. Mr. Biden is primarily worried about his re-election, a cause he conveniently if sincerely conflates with the survival of democracy in the U.S. and of freedom in the world. Israel is worried about something more tangible—the survival of the world’s only Jewish state.
