As Middle East conflicts continue to escalate with moral framing, and shifting alliances, it is worth examining how wars are often remembered versus how they actually unfold.
Mark Weber’s analysis of the “Good War” myth of World War Two reveals that even conflicts presented as unambiguous moral crusades frequently fail to achieve their stated aims.
The Western Allies entered the war pledging to preserve Polish independence, yet Poland emerged under Soviet domination a stark reminder that the narratives of victory can obscure deeper realities of power and consequence.

As the 2026 Middle East conflicts continue with their familiar cycles of escalation and fragile diplomacy, John Mearsheimer’s analysis in The Tragedy of Great Power Politics cuts through the noise with a stark truth:
“The best way to ensure survival is to be the most powerful state in the system.”
In an anarchic world of competing powers, this realist lens explains why alliances often lead to entanglement rather than peace and why today’s interventions echo age-old patterns of rivalry and overreach.
This perspective reveals the forces driving current events:

Henry Kissinger signed a secret memo in 1975 guaranteeing Israel’s oil supply.

Jimmy Carter expanded it to 15 years. Bill Clinton renewed it. Dubya renewed it. Obama let it lapse then renewed it anyway.

The receipts are all in my new article.

That's quite a bait and switch, the Arab Legion was responsible for Transjordan not Palestine and Glubb retired to Iraq by 1929 (your article date). The British had barely a 100 soldiers and 200 police in the area (even arming usually disarmed constables) and therefore couldn't guarantee much of anything if locals chose to spiral things out of control.
At this point the British mandate because of Balfour was already selling things that weren't theirs at the behest of new Yeshuv settlers as opposed to the old Yeshuv that didn't have incidents with the locals.
And incidents there were at august 15th when Tisha B'Av held a demonstration at the Wailing Wall which was still considered the Al'Aqsa at the time and demonstrators raised the Zionist flag and sang their anthems.
Violence erupted August 23rd when fears of a Jewish takeover reached a boiling point. Though Palestinians also sheltered local Jews from the violence, they must regret that decision regarding the sieges of the Mosque today.
The Baltimore News was also a sensationalist tabloid, so I'm sure that is what drew you to the headline. It seems you are keen to share one injustice or another but never why it happened. I'll leave it to you to pick another earlier date.

@izaakb @SinwarTactical That cooperation didn't go very well if we consult the British sources from the time.

@izaakb @SinwarTactical The founding of the Haganah, Irgun and Lehi (Stern Gang) predate your article of april 1936, by which time the relations between the New Yeshuv and Arabs had already soured immensely since the British were motivated to assist in Zionist colonization of Palestine post WW1.

[Institute for Historical Review @HistoryinReview]

@NationOfEldia @SinwarTactical I encourage you to open a book and read about the difference between the Old Yeshuv and the New Yeshuv brought on by the emergence of Zionism in Europe and Russia. The old Yeshuv did not need protection from the Arabs and neither did the old Christian population until today.

[Institute for Historical Review @HistoryinReview]

@SinwarTactical Well worth a watch.

Ron Chernow’s - The Warburgs documented: Jews “were permitted to wield tremendous power and influence even though so many of them with the Warburgs at the forefront were part of a mighty, supra-national Jewish network that was dedicated above all to its own particular interests.”
They thrived via international ties and shadow government charities while ordinary Germans faced hyperinflation, reparations, and national ruin. The 1930s poster style wasn’t baseless, it reflected real dynamics. https://t.co/8Lr5SWt9HC

Buchanan doubled down in 2003, exposing the same lobby/neocon cabal that dragged America into the disastrous Iraq War not for U.S. security, but to smash one of Israel's enemies. Mark Weber lays it out cold at IHR: thousands of American lives and billions wasted for Israel's strategic gain. True America First demands we face this reality head-on.

American-born Israeli spy Jonathan Pollard:

I'm not so sure that we will have as easy a time with the Turks as we've had with the Iranians.

We have to be prepared for the next war, which will probably be against Türkiye and Egypt.

The storm is coming.

@AnnCoulter on TAC Right Now:

"Haaretz had described that Kentucky race as a very important election for Israel. You did have three gigantic donors pumping most of that 20 or 30 million into this district and they were doing it explicitly to take out @MassieforKY because of his opposition to foreign aid to any country, but specifically Israel"

Zionists rejected the 1948 UN arrangements because they wanted all of Palestine just in small doses.

But here’s what he didn’t say on camera: his own State Department warned partition would create a “theocratic racial state,” guarantee “wide-scale violence,” and displace hundreds of thousands. He overrode them anyway.

Why? Truman’s own words: “I have to answer to hundreds of thousands who are anxious for the success of Zionism. I do not have hundreds of thousands of Arabs among my constituents.”

Primary sources have a quiet power to cut through the noise of official narratives.
David Irving’s close reading of Goebbels’ diaries pulls back the curtain on how even those at the center of great events navigated propaganda, incomplete information, and strategic deception.
One insight that stays with you: the gap between public posture and private calculation was often vast.
In an age of instant takes and curated histories, the discipline of sitting with original documents feels quietly radical.

‘The whole thing is a perpetual illusion. I am on the stage of a theater, and I pretend to believe in it... France is worn out.’ -Charles de Gaulle
Yet he fought fiercely for French sovereignty and a ‘Europe of fatherlands,’ resisting even his own allies to preserve independence.
What does authentic national leadership look like in our time?

Shavuot begins tonight the holiday marking the giving of the Torah at Sinai and the birth of Jewish peoplehood.
The Torah itself describes this covenant in striking terms: a people set apart, 'dwelling alone, and not reckoning itself among the nations.'
The Institute for Historical Review has long examined how this ancient sense of distinct peoplehood continues to shape history and global dynamics.
What role does this enduring self-understanding play in the modern world?

Marlon Brando was right: 'Hollywood is run by Jews. Jewish insiders confirm it:
'Yes, we control Hollywood... I don’t care if Americans think we’re running the news media, Hollywood, Wall Street or the government.'
-Joel Stein, LA Times, 2008
How does this shape global culture & values today?
