Friends of Lebanon, PLEASE retweet & contact your Reps NOW, deluge them with urgent requests to protect free untainted sovereignist voices like Dr Ch. Chartouni’s. His life is in danger in Lebanon for speaking truth to falsehoods. Moribund Hezbollah is at its most dangerous.

To all Jewish and Lebanese people who see this post: watch the video and read the captions. He says so much in this one video alone, everything that any Jew and sovereign Lebanese wants to say. Absolutely Priceless!



Just read it.

Great interview with TLP’s Ruy Teixeira in the WSJ: “The party needs to ‘give up on this equity baloney and start talking about equal opportunity, and fairness, which is what people really believe in.’ He pleads: ‘Go back to Martin Luther King.’” wsj.com/opinion/a-demo…

Melhem Asad, an Arab Maccabi Tel Aviv fan, helped save Jewish lives last night during the search-and-rescue in Amsterdam. For several hours, he spoke loudly in Arabic with groups of Israelis who were hiding to mislead assailants into thinking they were not Jewish so they would…

Please, Kamala Harris, if you win (a big if), consider Ritchie Torres for head of HUD! (What I see, I like, but of course, more careful scrutiny of his ideas and qualifications is needed.)

Well, I sure messed up on a post, communicating a message that I definitely didn't intend. It got 100K+ views & countless hostile replies before I realized I could delete it. Let me make it clear: I oppose population transfers and any plans for Israeli Jewish settlements in Gaza.

This might be one of the worst cases of “go woke, go broke” out there. The endless stream of social justice-themed, identity-based, nauseatingly boring drivel spewing out of the once mighty @WBEZ has taken their listenership down from #2 in the Chicago market all the way to…

Sorry, it is a misnomer to call UNIFIL blue helmets "peacekeepers". More accurate is "terrorist collaborators." This Orwellian doublespeak — official no less — is corrosive.

#Israel again attacked #UN peacekeepers on Wednesday, the United Nations Interim Force in #Lebanon (@UNIFIL_) says. ara.tv/zbth3



Can anybody explain why these do-nothing blue helmets insist on staying put in harm's way? Is there any point besides gaining an opportunity to gripe about the IDF? Am I mossing something?

A spokesman for UN peacekeepers in Lebanon says Israel had requested it leave its positions in south #Lebanon where Israel is clashing with Lebanese militant group Hezbollah, but they had refused. ara.tv/mq7v3

Thank you the @IDF for saving an Iraqi woman from Hamas. The @Israel cares for Iraqi minority groups more than our own corrupt Iraqi government. البارحة انقذ جيش الدفاع الاسرائيلي بنت عراقية يزيدية من قبضة حماس الداعشية


The Islamic Republic of Iran are the real colonizers in the Middle East. Israel is more of a refugee state, more like Liberia than South Africa in its birth as a modern nation.

We need to talk about the real fascist Occupation in the Middle East. The fascist Islamist Regime in Iran has occupied: Lebanon – through Hezbollah Yemen – through the Houthis Gaza – through Hamas Iraq – through Kata'ib Hezbollah and Hashd AlShaabi END THE OCCUPATION NOW!

Hi Professor, is this you, this defender of the October 7 massacre? x.com/ballouxfrancoi… Man, I wish there was still such a thing as international law. For me these fatuous professors, whether lawyers or geneticists hardly matters, have killed it. They don’t even pretend to…

Whether the IDF suspected that Nasrallah was in this block of flats that got flattened, or just made this up as a story, is largely irrelevant. This is a war crime, either way.



I have watched Nasrallah give speeches in Arabic (which I mostly understand). He sounded like a bloodthirsty raving lunatic obsessed with exterminating Jews worldwide. Anybody who found him charismatic grew up on a different planet from me.

News or advocacy?

I see the dramatic successes against the Iranian-backed Jihadist of Hizbullah as a result of collaboration between Israelis and brave Lebanese (probably Syrians too) who are not only fed up but also incensed with the Hizbofascists.

An observation: one should not overlook the intelligence partnership that Israelis have on the ground with those who are sick of the miserable occupation imposed on them by these terrorist leaders. Cyber is important but human sources are critical.

I stated on CNN that if we seek peace in the Middle East, a strong U.S. stance is essential—one that confronts Iran's Islamic regime and bans the Muslim Brotherhood, rather than rewarding them with $6 billion for five hostages. This approach only encourages further acts, as seen…
