Said it once and will say it again: Unless the West moves towards a more wholistic policy to support the Iranian people, Iran post 12-Day War will become like Iraq post First Persian Gulf War in the 90s when it comes to cracking down on (real or perceived) dissent. Terrifying.

Macron planning to recognise a Palestinian state, rewarding the thousands of terrorists who invaded Israel, murdering, raping, torturing, kidnapping & burning. He is incentivising and encouraging jihadists everywhere, including in France.
Washington must press the Lebanese government to follow up on the central bank’s measure by pulling AQAH’s operating license and clamping down on all entities operating within Lebanon’s shadow economy More here from @DavidADaoud: fdd.org/analysis/2025/…

Corrupt union officials? Well waddya know.
A criminal investigation into finances of the NFL Players Association includes potential misuse of funds and self-enrichment by union officials, according to a confidential document obtained by @DVNJr and @kalynkahler: espn.com/nfl/story/_/id…
Re. The Washington Post front page photo of the Palestinian mother and starving child. Hamas refuses to negotiate in earnest because it values propaganda far more than the lives of children. Just like Hitler refused to surrender as German children were bombed. Fools blame Israel
If number 666 is evil, Then 25.8069758011 is the root of all evil.
President Macron’s decision to recognize a Palestinian state at the @UN General Assembly is a dangerous act of appeasement and is offensive to the victims of Oct. 7.
Israeli journalist @HavivRettigGur: After 22 months of false or misleading reports in Western media, Gaza is now actually approaching catastrophic levels of hunger. “We are very close to real, actual, desperate hunger in Gaza… It's hard to convince Israelis of that because…
An Israeli military official said the IDF was rebuffed by the UN when it offered to escort aid trucks in Gaza. Instead, the UN wanted Hamas police to do it. To demonstrate the absurdity of the UN's thought process, here are some of the Hamas police officers who participated in…
I went to the Gazan side of the Kerem Shalom border crossing today to see for myself the nearly 1,000 trucks’ worth of aid waiting to be picked up by the UN. Stay tuned 📰
An obscene amount of aid is waiting to get picked up on Gazan side of the border with Israel. 950 trucks to be precise. Why are international NGOs not picking it up when they warn - every single day - about starvation in Gaza? @WFP

The situation is bad and it is going to get worse.

UN screaming “famine” in Gaza yet failing to distribute the aid that’s already there. Media regurgitating U.N. propaganda rather than investigating.
BREAKING: The IDF has released footage from inside Gaza showing thousands of pallets of aid just sitting there, waiting to be picked up by the UN. So why is the UN demanding more aid trucks enter—when they haven’t even distributed what’s already there?
Hundreds of trucks worth of aid is sitting inside Gaza, as we reported days ago. Five separate routes were offered to the UN to distribute this aid, I’m told. Palestinian civilians are in desperate need of this humanitarian support.
I rarely ever ask people to share a post, but I will today! Yaron Lischinsky and Sarah Milgrim were killed in DC two months ago. They were friends of mine, and I easily could have walked out of the AJC event with them that night. Wars and a dozen news cycles have come and gone…
