Not many people ascend to the level of an American hero upon their premature demise. The list of our nation’s political assassinations turned national martyrs is short yet distinguished: September, 10th, marked the one-year anniversary of Charlie’s untimely assassination while doing what he felt called to, namely speaking to a crowd of college students, challenging … 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
President Donald Trump announced Sunday that the U.S. and Iran agreed to sign a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to bring the months-long war to an end. The formal signing is planned to take place at a meeting in Geneva, Switzerland, on Friday. The MOU is not a final, negotiated “peace deal.” But it is the first important … Read more
I have been writing a daily political opinion article for over 5 years, nearly 2,000 consecutive days, and I have received a fair share of criticism. I can handle criticism, as that is what fuels conversation and debate. I have said from my first article that my purpose was not to profess I had all … Read more
The resignation of Joseph Kent is not a “protest” – it is a confession of moral and strategic bankruptcy. While the United States and Israel finally move to cauterize the nuclear cancer growing in Tehran, Kent has chosen to retreat into the fever dreams of the antisemitic fringe, trading his duty to the nation for … Read more
Written over several days (Note: I’m back in the US – a travel tale I’ll have in a separate post.) So it’s been several days, and overall, the frequency of “incoming” has gone down by a large margin. But while there are qualitative as well as quantitative indications of that, fire seems to be focused … Read more
I landed in Israel on Friday in the early afternoon, and at passport control, I was asked whether I was aware of the situation with Iran and whether I really wanted to enter. I said I knew it was tense, and looking back, I wonder how much the passport officer actually knew about what was going to … Read more
I’ll open with this. There are a lot of reasons to be distressed about the US and Israeli attacks on Iran and its response. The Peace president, many will say, ought not be lobbing ordinance hither and yon. But what if it brings peace? Real peace. And despite what the Trump haters think or the … Read more
By Guy Page and Bill Moore An anti-Israel coalition called on five Vermont legislators to resign during a press conference Tuesday at the Statehouse, alleging ethical concerns over their participation in a September 2025 trip to Israel. One of the five lawmakers says she fears for her safety following the action taken by the Vermont … Read more
Trump’s triumph elevates love of life above war and death. On November 20, President Donald Trump hosted 17 of the 20 Israeli hostages recently released by Hamas at the White House. He campaigned on promises to end the war in Palestine and bring the hostages home, and he has worked tirelessly to do so. The … Read more

Most of what we’ve heard about the Gaza Flotilla revolves around Muppet Greta Thunberg’s participation. She’s the high-profile attendee. The name or face of a 52-vessel effort to get mostly symbolic humanitarian aid past the Israeli military blockade. Israel isn’t going to let them pass, and they all likely know this, but the boats are … Read more
I had the good fortune to meet Charlie Kirk during one of his visits to Vermont. I drove over an hour to meet the young man who was setting conservative politics on fire with his impassioned speeches and indefatigable debating style. Where was he speaking? At the appropriately named Ignite Church in Williston. That day’s … Read more
The Palestinian Delusion: The Catastrophic History of the Middle East Peace Process.
The Jeffrey Epstein story captured the attention of Americans of all stripes for several reasons. At its core, we find the most powerful figures in American politics consorting with a known Israeli intelligence asset involved in the human trafficking of innocent and naïve girls. Out of that grow several branches reaching into virtually every aspect … Read more
Although many people have taken an interest in Jeffrey Epstein’s salacious saga due to his conviction as a child rapist and sex trafficker, as well as his inexplicably mysterious death, the larger question surrounding the man was his apparent ties to Israeli intelligence via the Mossad or military intelligence. Why? Because if he was in … Read more

A happy customer is a great salesman and an asset. Word of mouth is a foundation of success, especially when it can be coupled with examples—a real-world demonstration of the product’s attributes or capabilities. Whatever you may think about Israel’s “decapitation” attack on Iran (or what followed), one thing stands out. Regardless of party or … Read more
President Trump took to Truth Social, the official platform for breaking news from the office of the President of the United States, to tell us that the 12-day war is over. Iran and Israel have agreed to a ceasefire. From Breitbart. Trump’s chosen title, the “12 Day War,” is a clear allusion to the “Six … Read more
Israel has put Mt. Trump in a tough situation. Israel has no hope of defeating Iran without nuclear weapons. It needs allies, in this case America, to embark on another Middle East adventure that will likely result in more failed nation-building in the name of defending an ally. Trump has broken out the typical bluster, … Read more
