The fight raging between Israel and Iran is a vivid reminder of what happens when a regime fueled by radical zealotry is allowed to amass deadly weapons unchecked—and how a nation with guts and grit responds. In less than four days, Israel’s Defense Forces have dealt a serious blow to Tehran, wiping out one-third of Iran’s missile launchers. This is no small feat. It sends a clear message: America’s closest ally in the Middle East is not just defending itself; it’s dismantling a dire threat with precision and relentless resolve.
Let’s be honest here: the global left and their establishment enablers have consistently failed to understand what real strength looks like. While liberal politicians prattle on about diplomacy and appeasement, Iran has been sneaking its ballistic missiles under the radar, playing a dangerous game fueled by hatred for Israel and the West. But Israel isn’t playing around. They have the upper hand in the skies and on the ground, dismantling 120 launchers out of an estimated 360. That cripples the regime’s ability to bombard Israeli civilians—not to mention the dozens of terror bases hit overnight, targeting Iran’s notorious Quds Force. No wonder we are seeing people fleeing Tehran in panic. This is the beginning of the end for the Ayatollah’s nightmare.
The fact that Iran still launches dozens of missiles and drones at Israel shows their desperation, not strength. Most are shot down, and while any civilian loss is tragic, Israeli military targets remain untouched. That’s the sign of a disciplined and effective defense—unlike the chaos and weakness parading as foreign policy on the left. Instead of reinforcing allies and stamping out evil at its source, American liberals would rather coddle tyrants, call strong defense “provocation,” and tolerate terrorists as if they’re victims. This administration’s fecklessness only invites aggression. Meanwhile, Israel proves what it means to stand firm in the face of barbarism.
If Trump gave the Iranians 200 days to negotiate the surrender of their nuclear weapons & uranium enrichment programs, they'd need 201 days.
They call this a "NEVER ENDING STORY.
IDF: Israel Has Destroyed One-Third of Iran’s Missile Launchershttps://t.co/lANWNlX2NW

This is a wake-up call for America. Supporting Israel isn’t optional; it’s essential to maintaining order in one of the world’s most volatile regions. Iran’s weapons program is not some abstract issue lost to diplomatic back channels; it’s an existential threat to freedom and security. The fact that Iran’s missile command structure is being whittled down should energize all Americans who believe in strength and clear-eyed leadership—not the spineless globalist hacks who prattle about “negotiations” while leaving Israel hanging. The courage on display by the IDF is something our own leadership often lacks.
If Tehran’s regime collapses, as the signs suggest, it won’t be because of some pie-in-the-sky peace plan cooked up by liberals. It will be because Israel and its allies showed toughness that the global left has consistently refused to demonstrate. The question remains: how long will Washington’s shortsighted elites continue their reckless dithering, risking lives and emboldening America’s enemies? At a time when strength is needed most, weakness is a license to tyranny. Israel’s fight is our fight—time to stop pretending otherwise.
