Trump Wants Syria to ‘Fight Hezbollah’ in Lebanon

That’s not working. That’s not the way to do it.
 
Both Israel and Lebanon are appalled. Trump sees Syrian leader Ahmed al-Sharaa as a “strong leader,” someone who can take on Hezbollah and deal better with it than Israel. That is not how either Beirut or Jerusalem sees things.

Turning back the clock in Turkey

They always win. But they are always tense. Often, they look pensive and unhappy. They are angry, always ready to pick a fight. And they do fight.

They want to make a fake country; sin-free and dry. For that, they want everyone’s admiration and gratitude. Not everyone agrees. They won’t find peace until they make the other half of Turkey precisely as the half they command: ostensibly sin-free, so dry and privately full of sin.

Full command over nearly one half of Turkey does not satisfy them. Poor chaps; they are always angry.

BURAK BEKDÄ°L is one of those secular Turks who don’t like to see the headbangers take over. But he is also wrong when he claims its only 50% of Turks that wants to turn the clock back. Erdogan clearly has a majority.

 Greek MEP Afroditi Latinopoulou stunned the EU Parliament:

“If Israel falls, the gates of hell will open for all of us. Palestinian state does not exist.”

Bostom: From the Barbary Pirates to Today’s Islamic Supremacy

Muhammad declared war on the world in the 7th century. That war (Jihad) never stopped, it is permanent and relentless. Jihad is driven by Islamic ideology & supremacy. Western leaders talk about ‘forever wars’ as if peace could by achieved by ‘making deals’ like paying tribute (Jiziya).

They are ignorant of history.

The Barbary States, Morocco, Algiers, Tunis, and Tripoli, controlled key routes along the Mediterranean, and for centuries they financed themselves by capturing ships and ransoming crews. European powers typically paid annual tribute to avoid attacks, treating it as a cost of doing business.
.
When the United States became independent after the Revolution, it lost the protection of the British Navy and suddenly found its merchant ships exposed. With no real navy of its own, America had little leverage. By the 1790s, U.S. diplomats were negotiating payments, gifts, and even building ships for Barbary rulers just to keep American sailors safe.
.
The financial burden was enormous for a young nation still struggling with debt. In 1797, nearly one‑fifth of the entire federal budget went toward tribute, a staggering figure that sparked outrage among politicians and the public. The humiliation was just as painful as the cost: American captains were seized, crews were enslaved, and the U.S. found itself forced to negotiate from weakness.
.
This period exposed how vulnerable the country was without a navy capable of protecting its commerce. The debates in Congress became fierce, with leaders arguing that paying pirates was unsustainable and dishonorable for a sovereign nation.
.
The breaking point came when the Pasha of Tripoli demanded even higher payments and declared war on the United States in 1801. Instead of giving in, President Thomas Jefferson sent newly built American warships to the Mediterranean, marking the birth of the U.S. Navy as a global force.
.
The First Barbary War (1801–1805) and later the Second Barbary War (1815) ended the tribute system and proved that the United States could defend its interests abroad. The Barbary conflict became a defining moment in early American identity, a shift from vulnerability to capability, from paying for peace to enforcing it.

6/23/24 on WPRO with Matt Allen: Per Iran’s JIHAD Constitution, what a real “forever war”-JIHAD-looks like: “You can receive these blows in perpetuity (from Barbary or Iran’s Shiite jihadists), or you can strike back at them as Jefferson did, & as POTUS Trump did Saturday (6/21/25)”
.
The Islamic Rep of Iran is a Constitutional JIHAD TERROR STATE, “An Ideological Army,” whose goal is “fulfilling the ideological mission of jihad in Allah’s way; that is, extending the sovereignty of Allah’s law throughout the world,” per Qur’an 8:60 http://hrlibrary.umn.edu/research/iran-constitution.html

“We took the liberty to make some inquiries concerning the Grounds of their pretentions to make war upon Nations who had done them no Injury, and observed that we considered all mankind as our friends who had done us no wrong, nor had given us any provocation.
 
The (Tripolitan, modern Libya) Ambassador answered us that it was founded on the Laws of their Prophet that it was written in their Koran, that all nations who should not have acknowledged their authority were sinners, that it was their right and duty to make war upon them wherever they could be found, and to make slaves of all they could take as Prisoners, and that every Musselman who should be slain in battle was sure to go to Paradise.

Pauline Hanson goes to UK, meets Tommy Robinson

And the commentariat DownUnder loses their shiite. Andrew Bolt’s vile attacks on Tommy Robinson are an eye-opener to how low the journaille will stoop to keep the establishment in power and to prevent change.

Defund the ABC Australia

Just two weeks after a podcast interview with Tommy Robinson cost Karl Stefanovic his television career, Pauline Hanson has recorded her own sit-down with the British far-right figure.  (From the extreme left Financial Review)

Pauline Hanson has declared she was left “gobsmacked” after touring the English town of Luton with controversial British activist Tommy Robinson, saying the experience reinforced her determination to prevent Australia from following the same path.
The One Nation leader, who is in Britain ahead of next week’s CPAC Great Britain conference, visited Robinson’s hometown as he pointed to what he described as the town’s changing demographics and the effects of mass immigration.
During a video shared on social media, Robinson drove Ms Hanson through parts of Luton before asking for her reaction.
“I’m gobsmacked because I wouldn’t think that I was in England,” Ms Hanson said.
“I definitely don’t want Australia to become like this. This is not Great Britain to me, and that’s why I’m going to protect Australia.”

Opposition Leader Angus Taylor has diverted his attention from Labor to Pauline Hanson in a blistering attack on her party. He says One Nation would deliver an “eternity of pain” for Australia, lighting the fuse for a war of words with the senator.

Trump Draws Red Line on Iran: U.S. Strikes Hammer Regime After Hormuz Attacks, Ceasefire Collapses

President Trump is delivering on his promise of peace through strength, ordering decisive U.S. military strikes on Iranian targets after the regime violated a fragile ceasefire by attacking commercial shipping in the Strait of Hormuz.

The latest escalation has shattered the June memorandum of understanding aimed at winding down the Iran conflict, but Trump administration officials signal that America will not tolerate threats to global energy security or U.S. interests.

A ceasefire and MoU brought temporary calm, focusing on reopening the vital Strait of Hormuz, one of the world’s most important energy shipping routes.

Yet Iran quickly tested limits by harassing tankers, imposing illegal routing demands, and attacking commercial vessels.

U.S. Central Command responded with strikes against more than 80 targets, including air defenses, command centers, coastal radars, anti-ship missiles, and IRGC fast boats.

Iran responded with drones and missiles toward Gulf targets and Jordan, with some intercepted. Continue reading US president says 1,000 missiles are “locked and loaded and aimed at the Islamic Republic of Iran”

Israel Shares New Intel of New Iranian Assassination Plot Against President Trump After Regime Vows Revenge

Israel has reportedly provided the United States with new intelligence indicating that the Iranian regime has developed a new plot to assassinate President Donald Trump.

According to reports published Thursday by the Wall Street Journal, Israeli intelligence recently alerted U.S. officials to a specific assassination plot targeting President Trump.

Sources familiar with the intelligence said the warning was delivered this week and involved information that U.S. agencies had not previously identified independently. Details of the alleged plot have not been publicly disclosed.

Wall Street Journal reported:

Israel shared new intelligence with the U.S. that it said indicated a fresh Iranian plan to kill President Trump, people familiar with the matter said, a finding that would mark an escalation in the war between Washington and Iran.

Iran for years has vowed openly to retaliate against Trump for the assassination of Qassem Soleimani, who was a top general in the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, in the president’s first term.

The Israeli embassy in Washington declined to comment. Iran’s Mission to the United Nations didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment. The White House referred The Wall Street Journal to comments the president made on Wednesday.
