ISRAEL AFTER 70: From National to Global Rectification
“When the Lord returned the captives of Zion, we were like people in a dream. Then was our mouth filled with laughter, and our tongue with exultation: then said they among the nations, The Lord has done great things for them. The Lord has done great things for us; so we rejoiced! Bring back our captives, O Lord, as the streams in the south. They that sow in tears shall reap in joy. Though he goes on his way weeping, bearing the store of seed, he shall come back with joy, bearing his sheaves.
Trump Marks the End of Revisionism
“If you repeat a lie often enough people will believe it….” President Trump has announced Jerusalem is the capital of Israel. Is this news? Hardly. Jerusalem has been the official capital of the Israel since its rebirth in 1948. Never mind it has been the eternal capital of the Jewish people throughout all of history. Yet with Trump’s announcement most of the world has gone upside down, especially the Arab world. Why is there such an uproar about this announcement?
Trump, Jerusalem, and the Coming War
Say what you will about President Donald Trump, he knows how to make an impact. The voices and cries against the president’s potential decision to move the US Embassy to Jerusalem or at the very least announce that the US recognizes a united Jerusalem as Israel’s eternal capital have reached fevered pitch.
Putin Shakes Up Syria, by Inviting the Country's Kurds to Sochi
According to Asharq Al-Awsat Russia has invited Syrian Kurdish authorities to the Congress of the Peoples of Syria. The congress is a meeting of Syria’s various ethnic groups that is scheduled to be held in Sochi.

Mueller Indicts Manafort, Is a Soft Coup Underway?

The Fatah-Hamas Unification
What it means for Israel. Earlier this month, a new Palestinian unification agreement was signed in Cairo through Egyptian mediation. It is unlikely to differ much from the previous 2011 agreement between Fatah and Hamas that fizzled away. In control of Gaza since 2007, Hamas is committed to the destruction of Israel without much pretense.
North Korea, Iran, and the Militarization of the United States
President Donald Trump’s tweet last week after the UN Security Council voted to put new sanctions on North Korea held within it loads of information that should have alarmed both the President’s most dedicated followers as well as most Americans. Here it is again: While the UN Security Council vote was important, the idea that more sanctions would cause North Korea to simply just roll over is pure fantasy.
Cape Verde, Togo, and the Continued Rectification of the Israel-Africa Relationship
Cape Verde, an island nation of half a million people off the coast of Western Africa who has traditionally voted against Israel at the UN announced a few days ago that they were “no longer going to vote against Israel at the UN.” Coupled with this, they announced separately that Jewish cemeteries and synagogues in the country would be considered national heritage sites and protected against any changes.
ERDOGAN’S GENOCIDAL INCITEMENT
Turkey’s dictatorial president Recep Tayyip Erdogan’s recent efforts to mediate between the Saudis, their Arab Gulf allies and Egypt on one side versus his Qatari ally (both are staunch supporters of the Muslim Brotherhood) on the other, have failed to materialize.
