Citizen Writers Fighting Censorship by Helping Americans Understand Issues Affecting the Republic.
After 25 days of Operation Epic Fury, adversaries are making moves that show they want no part of an Iran that it is losing. Even Iran’s biggest supporter—Russia—is saying no mas. Now that Iran cannot provide Putin’s army with drones, he doesn’t need them.
President Trump called off launching a huge bombardment of Iran on Monday. He said he was talking to Iran’s leadership. Meanwhile, Iran’s leadership denies this. Both statements are true because no one is really sure who is in charge.
There is a lesson in the Afghan man, Rahmanullah Lakanwal, who shot two national guardsman in DC in November of last year, if we are acute enough to see it.
The United States and the Cuban Americans have the opportunity to save Cuba and the Cuban people.
Diane discusses how Canada’s socialized medicine system is pushing white Canadians to commit suicide with the help of the government, and ponders whether access to pain relief & treatment is intentionally being limited in order to push patients to kill themselves.
While our NATO allies are flitting about trying to find a way to appease their Muslim invaders while not pissing Trump off, the Saudis are supporting us—albeit without acknowledging Israel.
America and Israel began Operation Epic Fury (Rising Lion in Hebrew) by assassinating the Supreme Leader and seven or eight of Iran’s top generals. Then quickly and methodically the two destroyed its air defenses, its air force and its navy.
While the pundits pontificate, the Donald acts – because he understands that survival is more important than approval ratings. While they debate about polling and its significance to the upcoming election, our President is on a different mission – fulfilling his oath.
I see a sort of Pax Americana developing right here at home. President Trump would call it a golden age.
Trump is rebuilding America. He is rescuing America from the doldrums of a faltering economy, inflation, a man-made pandemic, a corrupt bureaucracy, an opposing political party, a military previously burdened by an incompetent command structure,
I should call today’s newsletter Sophie’s Choice. She’s a reader who in yesterday’s comments likened our situation with NATO to that of the Little Red Hen.
The world is changing for the better and Donald Trump is the man changing it. In the henhouse of life, it is good to be the fox or at least as crazy as one.
America’s “days of infamy” include not just 1941 and 2001 but the 1983 … that was a brutal marker of Iran’s decades‑long theocratic terror campaign that makes a nuclear Iran intolerable and demands a president willing to end the mayhem.
Operation Epic Fury is the most successful military attack by anyone in the world in decades. Commander-in-Chief Donald Trump began by having the Air Force and Israel take out Ayatollah Khamenei and his top generals, cutting the head off the snake.
An outsider would expect the mullahs to face the reality that they are soon to be deposed, but instead, they defiantly keep on appointing new placeholders to fill the roles that the coalition has made vacant.
Recently, I heard the news that Iran may try to destroy California with its Shahed drones. I had to laugh at that. Aren’t the Iranians aware that Supreme Leader Gavin Newsom and his gang of socialist Democrats have already done that?
It’s been a fast week with lots of moving parts. As usual, Don surber, with his rapier wit, puts it all in perspective
Commander-in-Chief Donald Trump updated America on Operation Epic Fury in Iran. No. 47 said, “Their army is gone. Their navy is gone. Their communications are gone. Their leaders are gone. Two sets of their leaders are gone—they’re down to their third set. Their Air Force is wiped out entirely.” Well, trust but verify, so I …
The modern world likes to believe it has outgrown geography. Satellites circle the planet, data moves at the speed of light, and weapons can strike targets from continents away. Military theorists speak confidently about cyber war, artificial intelligence, and fifth-generation conflict conducted across digital networks and orbital platforms. Yet despite all this technological sophistication, the global economy still depends on an astonishingly simple fact of physical geography: about twenty-one miles of ocean between Iran and Oman control roughly a quarter of the world’s oil and enormous quantities of energy-related commodities such as petrochemical feedstocks and fertilizer inputs.
Author’s Note: (In June 2020, I posted the following column about Hong Kong. The reason for the post was that on May 22 of that year, China’s government in Beijing announced that it would allow mainland state security agencies to operate officially in Hong Kong, effectively allowing Beijing to impose national security laws on Hong …
I worked in newspapers as a civilian for 33 years. I do not recall any other veteran in the newsroom over that time. Journalism schools should require two years in the military—or at least boot camp.
