In early January, President Trump warned Iran’s Islamist government that if it killed peaceful civilians protesting the economy’s collapse, “the United States of America will come to their rescue.” In a post on Truth Social, he declared, “We are locked and loaded and ready to go.” Days later, when it became clear authorities and their henchmen were slaughtering thousands of unarmed protestors, Trump delivered another warning– — and a promise. After urging “Iranian Patriots” to keep protesting and “save the names of the killers and abusers, he said, “They will pay a big price” and added ominously: “Help is on its way.” That help arrived Saturday

Yes, indeed. With K gone, the world is now a better place. Now, on to the task of identifying and culling any remaining moles from what's left of Iran's government and its military officer ranks.

I heard some mocking Trump for saying help is on the way. Wonder if they've apologized for doubting our beloved president.

As we come up on Purim Tuesday and had the Shabbos Zachor Saturday anyone else note: 1. This turkeys name was kHAMENei? 2. He was Persian leader like Haman? 3. He wanted us all dead. 4. He got blotted out on Shabbos Zachor? Heck of a coincidence.

#5, you pose a most interesting question. I don't think the timing of America's/Israel's February 27th attack on iran was a coincidence. In the Jewish Faith, Shabbat Zachor for 2026 just happened to begin on February 27th. While I don't practice the Jewish Faith (I was confirmed into the Lutheran Church Missouri Synod during 8th grade), my next-door neighbors practice the Jewish Faith and explain things to me from time to time. As you note, the mid-spelling of the Khamenei's is indeed similar to Haman. And guess what happened to Khamenei. I think prophecy is at work here. Would be interesting to hear what Jonathan Cahn has to say about all this.

Unlike with Russian and China, Iran does not subscribe to the concept of MAD. They believe that dying while killing infidels will reap a great reward. Be interesting to see how long the conflict will go on before Iran runs out of suicidal leaders.

Reportedly, Obama, called the "Dear Reader" by Venezuela's first communist leader, the late Hugo Chavez, was hardest hit by the American and Israeli strikes. The bomb damage to his, Susan Rice's, and Valerie Jarrett's psyches appears to be catastrophic. Ayatollah Khamenei aka "Hominy," killed by the IDF with forty family and fellow terrorists, was described by the Washington Post as having "an easy smile" and "a love of poetry." Dang, based on those phrases, the dead terrorist chieftain sounds a lot like me, although I don't wear the flowing white robes and go around yelling Aloha snackbar. Bezos ought to close that joint down.

Is Democrat James Talarico the real deal

State Rep. James Talarico said just that on Tuesday night — "A little bit of hope is a dangerous thing" — and he meant it as a call to action, a summons to the faithful. But the line lingers in the Texas air for a different reason. Democrats are about to invest a great deal of time, money and, yes, hope in the notion that a young state legislator from Round Rock is the man who will break a nearly four-decade winless drought for his party in the Lone Star State. Hope can animate. It can also delude.

“When riots broke out recently at a prison in Cuba’s Ciego de Avila province, the videos that circulated showed something remarkable,” reports Daniel Allott at The Hill: “Inmates were shouting, ‘Long live Trump!’ ” Along with a growing dissident movement, this “marks a significant psychological shift inside a nation long defined by resistance to US intervention.” Independent journalist Camila Acosta reports many Cubans “long ago” stopped believing the US embargo was behind “every shortage, every blackout, every empty pharmacy shelf.” Notes Allot: “When Cubans protest — and there have been hundreds of demonstrations since July 2021 — they do not chant ‘Down with the embargo.’ They chant ‘Down with [President Miguel] Díaz-Canel.’

Gavin Newsom endorsed the lie Tuesday that Israel is an “apartheid” state — a damning sign of where the Democratic Party is headed, and how far it’s already sunk. At an event promoting his new book, the California governor said Israel’s critics are “appropriately” calling it an “apartheid” state — i.e., a knockoff of South Africa’s old segregationist regime. This is a lie — one so egregious that many deem it a form of antisemitism. Apartheid South Africa denied blacks the vote and forced them to endure separate hospitals, separate schools, and even separate bathrooms. Arabs, 20% of Israel’s population, vote and serve in the government and even the military; there is no segregation

The beleaguered Iranian regime, with very few international allies, has been counting on Moscow's support amid the ongoing US-Israeli strikes, but so far it has been left deeply disappointed. Just hours after Israeli and US bombs started hitting Tehran on Saturday, Russia came out with a blunt statement, with the country's permanent representative to the UN, Vassily Nebenzia, calling it an "unprovoked act of armed aggression against a sovereign and independent UN member state." Moscow is one of Tehran's few but staunchest allies, and a possible collapse of the Iranian regime could be a blow for its geopolitical and economic interests. Then why has it not come to Tehran's rescue?

A major talking point among Democrats and their media handmaidens is that President Trump launched a “war of choice” against Iran. Given American casualties and the earth-rattling impact, the criticism could be a powerful political argument in the midterm elections — if it’s true. But it’s not true. In fact, we now can be certain that the war on Iran is not a war of choice. It is instead a war of American self-defense and maybe even a war of survival for Western civilization and Israel.

The airstrike on the Tehran residence of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei — one of the opening salvos of the current US-Israeli war with Iran — killed the 86-year-old supreme leader together with large parts of the Iranian command structure. Iran has yet to decide on the next leader. Currently, however, the power vacuum appears to be filled by Iran's top national security official Ali Larijani, reportedly one of the few people trusted by Khamenei to ensure the regime's survival in case of the ayatollah's death. Some 24 hours after the Tehran strike, Larijani took to national television and social media to decry the US and Israel

The joint United States and Israeli strikes on Feb. 28, 2026, did more than destroy military infrastructure. They decapitated the ideological command center of a regime that has spent four decades promising Israel’s annihilation and financing America’s enemies. The death of Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei marks the most consequential blow to state-sponsored terror in modern history. It revives a question Jewish thinkers have wrestled with for centuries: When does confronting evil move from a strategic option to a moral obligation? The Torah’s final commandment provides the frame. “Remember what Amalek did to you … you shall blot out the name of Amalek from under heaven. Do not forget.”

War is the use of arms to settle differences—tribal, political, religious, cultural, and material—between organized groups. It is unchanging. The general laws of armed conflict stays immutable, given the constancy of human nature. However, the manner in which war is conducted remains fluid. New weapons, tactics, and strategies elicit counterresponses in an endless cycle of tensions between defensive and offensive superiority. That said, has President Trump introduced a novel way of waging Western war against America’s foreign enemies?

House Speaker Mike Johnson said the U.S. strike on Iran was a defensive operation designed to prevent “staggering losses” to American troops and assets, arguing that waiting for Iran to strike first would have resulted in devastating casualties. Johnson spoke to reporters at the Capitol on Monday, where he emphasized that the most critical point of the operation was that it was defensive in nature. “Israel was determined to act in their own defense here, with or without American support,” he said. “Israel faced what they deemed to be an existential threat.

The death of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei in a US airstrike has brought new urgency to the question of who will become Iran’s new Supreme Leader. Hassan Khomeini, the grandson of the Islamic Republic's founder Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, is a prominent figure in these deliberations and is seen as a relative moderate within the establishment. Mr Khomeini, 53, holds a symbolically important role as custodian of his grandfather's mausoleum and has close ties to reformist politicians. Some politicians inside Iran have seen him as a rival to hardliners who gained sway under Ayatollah Khamenei, notably his son, Mojtaba.

How do destructive ideas and bouts of collective madness so quickly become policy, law, and the status quo? After all, most have little public support — and are not Western nations supposedly rationally governed? There is usually a multi-step process on the road to these self-destructive fits of society-wide insanity. The suicidal impulse so often begins with left-leaning researchers in elite universities (that is, the tenured in search of a novel, grant-getting theory). They begin insisting that a new existential threat requires immediate government intervention, novel legislation, ample funding and public awareness of the impending danger.

The announcement comes after Noem struggled to stand up to a public grilling by members of the Senate Judiciary Committee who pressed the former South Dakota governor on Tuesday about a $220 million ad campaign contract that was subcontracted to one of her longtime allies. Trump was furious at Noem for insisting during the hearing that he had personally approved the contract and began floating Mullin’s name as a potential replacement, National Review first reported early Thursday.

To appreciate just how evil this dastardly duo is, you need to know a little about Chabad. It began 250 years ago in the shtetls of Russia, places where Jews were frequently persecuted

Fifty-seven percent of Americans want all illegal migrants sent home, according to a Harvard Harris poll. The 57 percent includes 54 percent of political independents and 79 percent of Republicans, but just 35 percent of Democrats, said the February 26-28 poll of 1,999 registered voters by The Harris Poll and HarrisX. The majority support for mass deportations is notable because it remains strong amid massive resistance by pro-migration politicians, the Democrat establishment, the establishment media, and various pop-culture influencers. The poll also showed 63 percent support for a draft law that would bar the award of commercial driver’s licenses to illegal migrants. Just 40 percent of Democrats favor the curbs.

Something pretty big just went down behind the scenes in the federal government, and it could end up changing the entire illegal immigration game. According to a new report, the Department of Homeland Security appears to be stepping in and taking a more aggressive role in investigating illegal employment inside the United States. And no, they’re not politely coordinating with the IRS. They basically just told them to “take a seat.” DHS is reportedly bypassing the IRS and using its own investigative team to dig into the relationship between employers and illegal workers. For years, everyone avoided this tactic. Why? Because the uniparty knew it would actually break the pipeline,
