It does not matter the topic or the issue; as far as the JV talking heads on MSNOW are concerned, Donald Trump and his supporters are guilty. It goes beyond the absolute hatred of Donald Trump; it is obvious that these people are rooting against America in every story they discuss. Trump addressed the UN … Read more
For decades, the ruling apparatus in Tehran has relied on two foundational lies to maintain its grip on power: first, that the Iranian opposition is fragmented and planless; second, that no viable structure exists inside the country to manage a transition. Today, as the Islamic Republic enters its most precarious era of institutional decay, both … Read more
Today, on the Morning Update, we begin season two, after 260+ installments, and the topic is out of this world, if only barely. The US says it has an orbital weapons platform, and has it already used it? Watch on the ‘Grok Rumble Channel if the Embedded Video does not load. Links: Authors’ and Speakers’ … Read more
Everything a society does is its construct. Religion, law- it is all conceived and adopted by a group of people and becomes their worldview. Their culture. Their “law.” Don Ewing recently wrote an article in which he reminds readers that Iran has promised to destroy us. By any means, and that includes long-range missiles with … Read more
Those who ignore history are doomed to repeat it. December 7, 1941 proved America’s vulnerability. Our Presidents mostly ignored Muslim terror attacks so we suffered the World Trade Center attack and 9/11/2001. The lesson: believe and stop an enemy who hates you, attacks and kills your people, declares its intent to destroy you, and … Read more
History is littered with the ghosts of empires that fell and vanished entirely. Babylon is a set of quiet ruins; the Western Roman Empire exists only in textbooks; the ancient Hittites and Assyrians were ultimately swallowed by time. Yet, sitting on the vast high plateau between the Caspian Sea and the Persian Gulf is a … Read more
My breach with Islam started as far back as I could understand things. More to the point, I never embraced Islam in the first place, and I speak for many Iranians. My Early Life While I was born into a non-practicing Shiite Muslim family in Iran, as children, no one within the family forced Islam … Read more
The midterms this cycle are as confusing as the new world order is in general. Historically, the midterms have never been good for the sitting President. In the last 50 years, the President has maintained Congress’s support only once, for the first four years in office. Carter is the only President in this 50-year window … Read more
Today, on the Morning Update, we need a world without the Islamic Republic of Iran. The regime is on its knees, and the fanatics can be displaced, but President Trump needs more time, and everyone needs to understand why this matters because there is so much to gain. Watch on the ‘Grok Rumble Channel if … Read more
The Regime, Its Terror Proxies and the Foreign Powers Devouring a Nation Determining which factions, governments, or movements constitute the greatest threat to a nation relies on subjective political analysis and ideological perspectives. Analysts, political theorists, and citizens view the dynamics surrounding Iran through vastly different lenses depending on their priorities regarding statehood, human rights, … Read more
For over four decades, Washington’s posture toward the Islamic Republic of Iran has oscillated between containment, targeted economic sanctions, and episodic diplomatic engagement. Historian and military strategist Victor Davis Hanson argues that this paradigm has proven utterly ineffective at checking Tehran’s regional aggression or supporting the democratic aspirations of the Iranian public. During a high-profile broadcast exchange with … Read more
History moves through profound and unexpected reversals, exposing the sharp paradoxes of global cultural transformation. Today, a striking geopolitical irony unfolds across two distinct geographic spheres. Within Iran, a massive cultural awakening is burning away decades of enforced religious dogma as citizens actively reject the institutions of the Islamic Republic to reclaim their ancient Persian … Read more
The late President Reagan played a crucial role in dismantling the scourge of Soviet communism, while you, Mr. President, are committed to consigning the standard bearers of Islamic terrorism to their well-deserved demise. Mr. President, you have repeatedly pointed out that appeasing tyrants invariably fails to satisfy them and only whets their appetite. The previous … Read more
Jimmy Carter authored the single greatest foreign policy betrayal in modern human history. His cowardly abandonment of the Shah of Iran directly birthed the world’s most dangerous state sponsor of terrorism. President Ronald Reagan famously exposed this catastrophic blunder with unyielding fury. Reagan identified the betrayal of Mohammad Reza Pahlavi as a permanent stain of shame upon the … Read more
Fasten your seatbelts. I have some surprises for you. This article is about one nation being respectful to all other nations. What! In general, ordinary citizens don’t understand, and don’t try to understand, what goes on among nations. Possibly diplomats know the ropes, but most of us relate to foreign policy, and war only as a … Read more
The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) is a blood-soaked cartel that holds eighty-five million citizens hostage through terror, extortion, and executioner squads. American foreign policy stands on the brink of a catastrophic blunder if foreign boots step onto Iranian soil to fight a battle that belongs strictly to the Iranian nation. Foreign invasion breeds public … Read more
For nearly half a century, Israel and Iran have defined themselves partly through mutual hostility. That may be changing – not through official diplomacy between the two governments, which don’t exist, but through a growing, increasingly public relationship between Jerusalem and Iran’s exiled opposition, centered on Crown Prince Reza Pahlavi. The clearest signal came recently … Read more
The Fall of a Tyrant’s Empire: A Final Warning to the IRGC and the West For forty-seven agonizing years, the ancient and noble land of Iran has lived under the suffocating boot of a brutal theocratic occupation. Today, the supreme architect of that misery, Ali Khamenei, is gone. He is dead, yet the apparatus of … Read more
Vermonters and at least one national Republican figure are responding to an elected Vermont official’s ‘death to America’ statements made last week while attending the funeral of the leader of Iran, who died in the early days of the war with Iran. According to an X post by Orange County High Bailiff Christopher Helali, he’s … Read more
Ali Khamenei ruled for thirty-seven years and built an empire on corpses. A US-Israeli airstrike ended his life on February 28, 2026 – and the blood-soaked machine he commanded didn’t blink. Khamenei sat atop Iran’s government in the summer of 1988 while death committees executed thousands of political prisoners in a matter of weeks. Dissidents, students, and … Read more
