September 27th is the most important day in the Middle East since the Abraham Accords breakthrough.
I have spent countless hours studying Hezbollah and there is not an expert on earth who thought that what Israel has done to decapitate and degrade them was possible.
This is significant because Iran is now fully exposed. The reason why their nuclear facilities have not been destroyed, despite weak air defense systems, is because Hezbollah has been a loaded gun pointed at Israel. Iran spent the last forty years building this capability as its deterrent.
President Trump would often say, โIran has never won a war but never lost a negotiation.โ The Islamic Republicโs regime is much tougher when risking Hamas, Hezbollah, Syrian and Houthi lives than when risking their own. Their foolish efforts to assassinate President Trump and hack his campaign reek of desperation and are hardening a large coalition against them.
Iranian leadership is stuck in the old Middle East, while their neighbors in the GCC are sprinting toward the future by investing in their populations and infrastructure. They are becoming dynamic magnets for talent and investment while Iran falls further behind. As the Iranian proxies and threats dissipate, regional security and prosperity will rise for Christians, Muslims and Jews alike.
Israel now finds itself with the threat from Gaza mostly neutralized and the opportunity to neutralize Hezbollah in the north. Itโs unfortunate how we got here but maybe there can be a silver lining in the end.
Anyone who has been calling for a ceasefire in the North is wrong. There is no going back for Israel. They cannot afford now to not finish the job and completely dismantle the arsenal that has been aimed at them. They will never get another chance.
After the brilliant, rapid-fire tactical successes of the pagers, radios, and targeting of leadership, Hezbollahโs massive weapon cache is unguarded and unmanned. Most of Hezbollah fighters are hiding in their tunnels. Anyone still around was not important enough to carry a pager or be invited to a leadership meeting. Iran is reeling, as well, insecure and unsure how deeply its own intelligence has been penetrated. Failing to take full advantage of this opportunity to neutralize the threat is irresponsible.
I have been hearing some amazing stories about how Israel has been collecting intelligence over the past 10 months with some brilliant technology and crowdsourcing initiatives.
But today, with the confirmed killing of Nasrallah and at least 16 top commanders eliminated in just nine days, was the first day I started thinking about a Middle East without Iranโs fully loaded arsenal aimed at Israel. So many more positive outcomes are possible.
This is a moment to stand behind the peace-seeking nation of Israel and the large portion of the Lebanese who have been plagued by Hezbollah and who want to return to the times when their country was thriving, and Beirut a cosmopolitan city. The main issue between Lebanon and Israel is Iran; otherwise there is a lot of benefit for the people of both countries from working together.
The right move now for America would be to tell Israel to finish the job. Itโs long overdue. And itโs not only Israelโs fight.
More than 40 years ago, Hezbollah killed 241 US military personnel, including 220 Marines. That remains the single deadliest day for the U.S. Marine Corps since the Battle of Iwo Jima. Later that same day, Hezbollah killed 58 French paratroopers.
And now, over the past six weeks or so, Israel has eliminated as many terrorists on the US list of wanted terrorists as the US has done in the last 20 years. Including Ibrahim Aqil, the leader of Hezbollahโs Islamic Jihad Organization who masterminded the 1983 killing of those Marines.
A truly meaningful milestone for all of us here at @FinaloopTeam as today we announce our $35M Series A funding led by @Lightspeedvp! ๐

@BenjaminDEKR Not sure I would review an enterprise security platform based on its (unmaintained) FB Page (and fwiw I share your concerns re Rabbit, regardless of how secure @PrivacyPiiano is)
They said there was no rape, because it's against Islam.
We shared confessions from captured terrorists describing how they raped.
They said they need video testimony from witnesses.
We shared testimony from eyewitnesses and first responders.
They said they need documented proof.
We shared visual evidence of half-naked bodies with bound hands and mutilated genitals.
They said they need forensic evidence.
We shared forensic evidence corroborated by the UN.
They said they need testimony from the victims.
Freed hostages courageously came forward and testified to being raped and sexually assaulted.
Now they say there is still no evidence, the confessions were coerced, the testimonies were contrived, and there couldnโt have been rape because the "resistance" doesnโt rape.
@paulg I canโt but wonder why would you amplify such things? Who is Yosef De Bresser that his PR stunt deserves your distribution? A quick visit to his X account should make it clear. I want to assume good intentions, and not a โletโs amplify any anti Israel propagandaโ approach.
