At this point, the alleged Iran deal exists somewhere between Trump’s “complete dismantlement,” Tehran’s “$300B and leave us alone,” and Vance’s “everyone calm down.” The only thing clear is that either someone is lying, everyone is leaking, or no one actually has a deal.

This needs to be said loud and clear. Israel is not attacking Lebanon. They are targeting Hezbollah. An Iranian funded terror proxy that has struck Israel 2,000 times since the April ceasefire. Israel has every right to defend itself. Don’t fall for the Iranian regime’s distraction.

The former President of the ICJ just destroyed the “Israel is committing genocide” lie. Joan Donoghue (who presided over the South Africa v. Israel case) on Hardtalk: “It didn’t decide that the claim of genocide was plausible… The shorthand that often appears… isn’t what the court decided.” The Court only said Palestinians have plausible rights to be protected from genocide. It made no finding that Israel was plausibly committing genocide. Watch her say it herself. The media and activists have been misrepresenting this and lying for 18 months.

This is my favorite argument. In Hiroshima, roughly 140k people died due to the nuclear bomb out of 350k. That’s 40% of the city. In Nagasaki, 80k people died out of 263k. That’s 30% of the city. In Gaza, 73k people have died (according to GHM) out of 2.3 million. That’s about 3% of the population. A substantial percentage of that are terrorists. So Israel has dropped an amount of bombs on Gaza that exceeds the power of the nuclear bombs we dropped on Japan and yet the death toll is far lower both proportionally and on a raw numbers basis. How is that possible if Israel is committing genocide? Maybe it’s because they’re not.

The threats are coming in heavy from DJT this morning…

These are US Patriot missiles firing to intercept ballistic missiles incoming from Iran over the skies of Jordan. Iran has been firing missiles and drones at Jordan, Kuwait and Bahrain for the past couple of hours as a response to the earlier strikes by the US on Iranian targets. My prediction is that the IRGC are going to make a grave miscalculation and do something from which there is no going back on. Then things will really escalate.

🔥WATCH: The IDF released footage showing troops destroying a Hezbollah anti-tank missile launcher hidden in bushes in southern Lebanon. According to the IDF, more than 35 Hezbollah terrorists were eliminated over the past week as Israeli forces continued responding to attacks and ceasefire violations by the Iran-backed terror group. Troops also raided a Hezbollah weapons depot, seizing Kalashnikov rifles, RPGs, and rockets.

U.S. forces reportedly targeted an IRGC command-and-control center as major explosions were reported in Robat Karim, southwest of Tehran.
