Iran: children to sweep the minefields, again….?

Iran Shows a Clear Sign of Desperation

Iranian child soldiers marching off to fight Iraq in the Iran-Iraq War.

During the Iran-Iraq War, Iranian authorities sent young boys to clear minefields, promising them that a plastic key they received would grant them access to paradise if they died in battle. This practice involved using children as soldiers, often with little military training, and has been widely reported, though the existence of the keys is debated

The Islamic Republic of Iran has lowered the minimum age to 12 for participation in war-related activities. No, it’s not that boys and girls will be sent off to fight. Instead, children as young as 12 will now be used to help man checkpoints, to go on patrols (presumably to watch out for saboteurs, or for signs of discontent and defeatism among the population), and to help with logistics. The Iranian state needs all the help it can get — even from its children. More on this sign of desperation can be found here: “Iran Lowers Minimum Age for War Roles to 12, Sparking Outcry Over Child Soldier Use,” by Ailin Vilches Arguello, Algemeiner, March 26, 2026:

The Iranian regime has lowered the minimum age for participation in war-related activities to just 12 years old, a move that will likely fuel the concerns of human rights groups, which have condemned Iran’s treatment of children.

In a televised interview with state media, Rahim Nadali, a cultural with Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) in Tehran, announced that the new initiative “For Iran” is recruiting participants to assist with patrols, checkpoints, and logistics.

“Since children are increasingly volunteering to take part, we have lowered the minimum age to 12,” Nadali said, urging young children to join the war effort if they wish.

USA: Communist Malcontents Stage Violent ‘No Kings’ Protests

Rich Leftists Stage Ugly No Kings Astroturfery

.

The ultra-left threw another tantrum yesterday, with thousands of No Kings spectacles staged throughout the country. Unsurprisingly, given that the appeal is to lowlifes, some turned violent.

The New York Post reports:

No Kings demonstrations in Portland, Oregon got out of hand in the evening with protesters sporting gas masks attacking police officers who were trying to control the crowd, according to video posted on X by FreedomNews.tv.

The video:

Elsewhere on the Left Coast,

A large mob of demonstrators waving Palestinian and other flags hurled cement blocks towards Department of Homeland Security agents in Los Angeles. … Protesters violently resisted arrests from LAPD cops…

As a recent election indicates, not even Trump’s home is safe from societal decay:

Outside Mar-A-Lago, in Palm Beach, Fla., female protesters lifted up their shirts Saturday as counterdemonstrators peppered them with insults including “w–re mongers” and “butch d–es.”

The nursing homes were empty. So who provided the signs & transportation?

They aren’t hiding the ball anymore:

A group of demonstrators waving red hammer and sickle flags chanted “there is only one solution communist revolution” outside Times Square.

Although there is no shortage of unhinged moonbats bred by the Democrat-dominated media and education establishments, No Kings productions are pure astroturf. Fox News reports:

A network of about 500 groups with an estimated $3 billion in combined annual revenues is behind the coordinated nationwide “No Kings” protest Saturday, including communist groups who are using the day to call for a “revolution,” according to a Fox Digital News investigation.

Not Just ‘Damaged’ but Obliterated: Images of US AWACS Jet At Saudi Airbase

Images have emerged revealing that the Wall Street Journal’s initial report that the half-billion-dollar aircraft was merely “damaged” was an enormous understatement. Rather, a large portion of the fuselage has been obliterated, along with the distinctive 30-foot-diameter, 6-foot-thick rotating radar dome that’s mounted atop AWACS aircraft. We took a closer look at the photo set here. 

The images of the destroyed E-3 Sentry were first posted on the Air Force amn/nco/snco Facebook page:

  • Not just ‘damaged’ but obliterated: images show destroyed US AWACS jet at Saudi Airbase. 

“The loss of this E-3 is incredibly problematic, given how crucial these battle managers are to everything from airspace deconfliction, aircraft deconfliction, targeting, and providing other lethal effects that the entire force needs for the battle space,” Heather Penney, a former F-16 pilot and director of studies and research at AFA’s Mitchell Institute for Aerospace Studies, told Air & Space Forces Magazine. If this has been carefully kept under wraps until now, what else is the White House and Pentagon not telling the public?

‘My favourite thing is to take the oil in Iran’: Trump indicates possibility of seizing Kharg Island

President Donald Trump said he wants to take control of oil in Iran and suggested the possibility of seizing Kharg Island, a key Iranian oil export hub, amid the ongoing US military buildup in the Middle East.

In an interview with the Financial Times, Trump said he preferred to take control of Iranian oil, comparing the strategy to the US plan in Venezuela, where it aims to control the oil industry indefinitely following the capture of Nicolás Maduro.

Israeli military intercepts 5 rockets targeting Haifa

  • United States President Donald Trump says in an interview he wants to “take the oil in Iran” as Tehran accusesWashington plotting a ground attack despite publicly pushing for a negotiated deal.
  • Kuwait says an Indian worker has been killed in an Iranian attack on a power and desalination plant, as Gulf states report intercepting drones and missiles.

Saudi Prince MbS reveals that President Obama gave Iran $150 billion, and the IRGC didn’t even build a single street with that money. Instead, they made missiles and drones. And they used the funds Obama provided them to finance and arm terrorists like Hamas, Ansar Allah, and Hezbollah.

With these funds, Iran offers safe harbor to the leaders of Al Qaeda, including one of Osama Bin Laden’s sons who was indoctrinated into jihadism. Obama is by far the worst man to ever set foot in the Oval Office. The neoliberals like Hillary Clinton, Victoria Nuland, Samantha Power, etc. who ran his administration did so deliberately in order to keep the region destabilized and to use Iran as a buffer to prevent the Gulf states and Israel from amassing too much prosperity.

The Arab Spring in turn was their way of creating a refugee crisis that would plunge Europe into financial and social turmoil, the effects of which are plain to see today as they struggle with irreversible demographic change. Chaos is a ladder, and peace is bad for the Democrats. It was the their way of keeping the Middle East down so they could retain the unipolar world order under the neoliberal agenda. The neoliberals did the same with Ukraine, and they tried to do it with Kazakhstan, Belarus, Georgia, Slovakia, Hungary and Poland. And they did so through USAID. Evil, evil stuff.

Hezbollah ‘Journalist’: “I ask Allah to bless me with martyrdom”

IDF CONFIRMS KILLING JOURNALIST ALI SHOEIB: ‘served as terrorist in Hezbollah under guise of journalist for Al-Manar network’

The IDF confirms targeting and eliminating Ali Shoeib, a Hezbollah terrorist masquerading as a journalist. Shoeib, in addition to being a member of Hezbollah’s Radwan Force, was a long-time correspondent for Al-Manar, a Hezbollah-owned and operated propaganda outlet.

Two other journalists working for the Hezbollah-aligned Al-Mayadeen television station were also killed. — World media predictably framed the development simply as Israel “killing journalists,” marking yet another double standard considering the deliberate targeting of ISIS media operatives by Western coalition forces.

Ali Shoeib, Al-Manar’s house correspondent, is without a doubt the journalist Abu Ali Express wrote many times about him over the years. Many times he noted that there is great value in eliminating Shoeib (the last time was just two weeks ago ) – in terms of his media influence and the psychological warfare he waged against Israel for Hezbollah, Shoeib was worth more than a thousand Hezbollah military operatives. In the attached photo, he is holding one of the cameras that were dismantled several years ago from an IDF outpost on the border with Lebanon. Many times he confronted IDF soldiers and officers at point-blank range. The world is definitely better off without him.

The NYT claims targeting a Hezbollah journalist was illegal. International law says otherwise.

The New York Times reported on Israel’s killing of Al-Manar correspondent Ali Shoeib in an airstrike near the southern Lebanese town of Jezzine. The strike also killed Fatima Ftouni and her brother Mohammed Ftouni, journalists for the Hezbollah-affiliated Al-Mayadeen channel. The Times dutifully secured the standard quote:
 

Legal experts and human rights groups say that expressions of support for an armed group such as Hezbollah do not make someone a legitimate target under the laws of war, unless they actively participate in hostilities. 

“Just reporting on the advancement of Israeli troops or engaging in propaganda does not make someone a military target,” said Ramzi Kaiss, the Lebanon researcher at Human Rights Watch.

The laws of war say otherwise. 

Europe: Backlash Against Open Borders, Migrant Crime & Welfare Fraud

Migration Invasion

Europe’s Slow Right Turn: Backlash Against Open Borders, Migrant Crime, and Welfare

American mainstream media and Europe’s left manipulate statistics to support claims that illegal aliens and migrants do not increase crime and that they benefit the economy. The data tell a different story. Immigrants are disproportionately represented in arrests, convictions, prison populations, and on welfare rolls across EU countries.

In Germany, foreigners represent roughly 17% of the population but accounted for 41.8% of all criminal suspects in 2024 and approximately 39% of all convictions in 2023, a new high. In France, foreigners make up about 7.8% of the population by citizenship, yet account for 17% of all criminal suspects, more than twice their population share, rising to 40% of suspects for vehicle theft, 38% for burglary, and 31% for unarmed robbery.

In Italy, foreigners are approximately 8.9% of the population but are implicated in 28% of murders and attempted murders, 33% of assaults, and 41% of rapes, and make up 31% of the prison population as of mid-2022. In Spain, foreigners represent 13% to 14% of the population, account for 28% of criminal convictions, and make up 31% of the national prison population, rising to 49% in Catalonia. Belgium presents the most extreme disparity: foreigners are 13% of the population but constitute 43% of the prison population, with roughly 30% of those foreign inmates holding no valid residence permit.

Iran did not start the war but has suffered ‘significant losses’

Fatemeh Mohajerani, a spokesperson for the Iranian government, says Iran has not started the war in which the country has endured “significant losses”, both in terms of human casualties and civilian homes and infrastructure.

She said compensation is one of the demands that should be discussed in any negotiations, adding that control over the Strait of Hormuz and the lifting of sanctions are other key matters to be taken into consideration.

“We are willing to move towards a sustainable peace,” she said.

Europe’s shameful appeasement of Iran

The truth behind the weak response of the leaders of Britain, France, Germany and other countries is far simpler: They refuse to accept that the only way to confront the ayatollahs is with force, plain and simple. The same mindset that produced the 2015 nuclear deal is ascendant now—namely, that military force is always wrong and counterproductive, and that what is needed is a return to soft power and diplomatic initiatives.

EU Accuses Hungary Of ‘Pro-Russian Espionage’

The rhetorical escalation between Budapest and Brussels continues to grow. Now, the EU accuses Hungary of actively sabotaging Europe by passing strategic information about the bloc to the Russian side. This type of serious accusation could never be made without proof, yet it has become common practice for the Western liberal regimes to accuse its rival countries of “collaborating with Russia” even without any evidence.

In a recent statement, the Hungarian Foreign Minister responded to recent European accusations of pro-Russian “espionage” by Hungarian authorities. According to the Hungarian minister, the EU is spreading lies and fake news about Hungary to try to influence the anti-Orban opposition, hoping to obtain a pro-EU result in the upcoming Hungarian elections.
