"In 12 days, Israel cornered Ayatollahs...I didn't want Trump's involvement in this war. He has been a disadvantage."-- Mosab Hassan Yousef.

NATO was created to stop Russian expansion. Now, by allowing the Islamic regime to survive, it is practically handing Iran to Russia for free. NATO looks increasingly irrelevant. If it won't act, America should build a new coalition with partners in the region to confront the Iranian regime. When Libyans rose up, NATO intervened, bombed Gaddafi's forces, and helped bring down his regime. But when the Islamic regime in Iran brutally suppressed its own people, attacked countries across the region, and threatened shipping through the Strait of Hormuz, NATO stood by.
Different standards. Different priorities. That's why many people no longer take NATO seriously.
Iran's regime says it is now engaged in a “full-scale war” with the United States.
Over the weekend, we learned that two U.S. soldiers were killed in an Iranian attack on Jordan. Another was killed in iraq—and several more were wounded, all by Iran.
For Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps, it’s all jihad, all the time. It’s long past time to finish the job in Iran and it appears that President Trump is now leaning strongly in that direction, as U.S. strikes pound Iran for the 10th consecutive night.
Will Iran try to bring down the entire global economy in the process?
Turkey’s Dictator President Erdogan has spent nearly $1 billion building Turkey’s Maarif Foundation into a global school network spanning 34 countries, according to a new report. The report alleges the foundation helped seize 162 schools linked to the Gülen movement through diplomatic pressure, deportations, raids, and property seizures—actions it says may amount to crimes against humanity.

CAN IRAN DEFEAT AMERICA?
Dr. Eric Mandel of @MepinOrg writes Tehran’s strategy is to survive long enough for American political pressure, public fatigue and election-year calculations to force Washington to pull back. He says, Iran is not trying to overpower America. It is trying to outlast it.
Mandel also argues that President Trump must explain the mission, and the cost of allowing Iran to escape with its nuclear and terrorist infrastructure intact.

Since unbelieving Jews do not do anything in the name of Jesus, I wonder: to whom exactly was Jesus speaking when He said,
“Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven. Many will say to Me in that day, ‘Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?’ And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!’” (Matthew 7:21–23)
This passage confronts us with a painful truth that so many people around the world still fail to grasp: Christianity was never meant to be a religion. It is not one now, and it should never have been turned into one.
According to Jesus Himself, the only way to enter the kingdom of God is to be born again.
“Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God… Do not marvel that I said to you, ‘You must be born again.’” (John 3:3, 7)
You cannot be born a Christian. A true Christian is someone who has been born from above - spiritually regenerated by the Holy Spirit. The widespread notion that over two billions of people are “born Christians” has produced precisely the kind of empty religion Jesus warned against: a self-righteous, lawless profession of faith devoid of any genuine relationship with Him.
The conflict with Iran is escalating as US forces strike key military infrastructure after Tehran failed to keep the Strait of Hormuz open under a recent agreement. Israel says it is ready to stand with America if the fighting expands. Could this reshape the Middle East?

Could Iran's ballistic missiles be an even greater immediate threat than nuclear weapons?
Jonathan Conricus explains that Iran's strategy has been to build a massive arsenal of missiles and drones to deter any military intervention while pursuing nuclear capabilities. Once protected by a nuclear umbrella, the regime could become far more difficult to stop.

When Joshua came face to face with the Commander of the Lord’s Army, he asked a question many of us would ask:
"Are you for us or for our enemies?"
The answer was unexpected: "No."
What follows is one of the most fascinating encounters in Scripture, an encounter that reveals not only the identity of this mysterious Commander, but also something profound about God's justice, His purposes, and the question we should really be asking.
The Commander of the Lord's Army wasn't taking sides. He was carrying out God's plan.
What does that mean for Joshua, for Israel, and for us today?

Why is President Trump suddenly talking about Pickaxe Mountain?
Most Americans have never heard of it. But it could soon become one of the most important locations in the world. Iran appears to be building nuclear facilities even deeper underground at this very site—potentially beyond the reach of the bunker-busting weapons used against Fordow. Swipe through to see...

🇺🇸 PRESIDENT TRUMP: IRAN HAS “VERY LITTLE LEFT” MILITARILY AFTER NEW U.S. STRIKES
President Trump on Iran: “Iran has been very, very badly damaged. They’ve lost everything, almost, militarily. They’ve got very little left. They’ve got some missiles. They’ve got some drones. They’ve got some manufacturing ability. Not much.”
On tonight’s retaliatory strikes, Trump added: “We hit him very hard again tonight and we did that in honor of the probably three - it’s probably three as opposed to two - great Patriots.”
In February 1947, British Foreign Secretary Ernest Bevin declared that the competing demands of Jews and Arabs were fundamentally irreconcilable, prompting Britain to hand the Palestine Mandate over to the United Nations.
According to him these were the two sides positions at the time:
The Jewish goal: The establishment of a sovereign, independent Jewish state.
The Arab goal: To prevent Jewish sovereignty in any part of Palestine and stop further Jewish immigration.
Notice what is missing.
Where was the demand for an independent “Palestinian” state?
It wasn’t. That was never the objective. The Arab world already consisted of numerous sovereign states. What they could not accept was the existence of a single Jewish state in the midst of them.
That is why Golda Meir during a press conference in London in 1969 famously said:
“Peace will come when the Arabs love their children more than they hate us.”
Her words remain a sobering reminder that lasting peace requires acceptance of Israel’s right to exist, not merely negotiations over its borders.
