Citizen Writers Fighting Censorship by Helping Americans Understand Issues Affecting the Republic.
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.
If only the Iranian people or the poor Palestinians could have benefitted from the tens and hundreds of billions of dollars the United States, UN and the world gave them over the years to improve their quality of life rather than funding efforts to build weaponry, rockets, missiles, tunnels, terrorism, mayhem and anarchy…
We are just over a week into the Iran operation, and the media, political analysts, social media pundits, and Democrats are all desperate to amass an audience by selling national tragedy. In the meantime, the world is celebrating the end of a cruel regime and praying for better days.
The time has come to drop the façade. There is no such thing as TDS. Hating Trump doesn’t drive this. Hating America does. As a very sane genius once said, the American press is the enemy of the people.
A conspiracy theory of the crazy kind that required “racist” thinking that believed the absolute worst of the scandal free Obama Administration (he breathlessly declared: author’s note-there are 784 entries in this list and it has not been updated. And-OBTW-there is a companion to this list containing LSMBTGA promoted Trump hoaxes-this is truly a partial list. Here is a bigger list. Here is a list from the second term first 100 days: it never stops…)
Apparently disregarding 47 years of murder carried out by the Iranian regime and its proxies around the world, top Democrats were quick to condemn the lightning strike that essentially decapitated the regime
In October of 1961 the Cold War was already a tense, paranoid chess match played with nuclear weapons instead of pawns. The United States and the Soviet Union were staring each other down across oceans, missile silos, and enough megatonnage to turn the planet into a glowing charcoal briquette. But Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev decided the world needed a reminder of just how big the Soviet hammer could be. So the Kremlin did what any superpower with a bruised ego might do. They built the largest nuclear bomb in human history and lit it off over the Arctic.
