We Israelis are going through a tough time. There is no denying it: the whole country is on edge. We are suffering from serious sleep deprivation because of sirens that go off in the night. We are regularly called upon to make decisions regarding whether a particular outing is wise, and relatively safe. We are enduring a heightened sense of loneliness because safety restrictions curtail social interactions.

Long before the Iranian hostage crisis or the suicide bombings that would follow, Iranian Islamists and their Communist allies teamed up to murder a top American diplomat.

Peloni:  Israel must not fall for the same Lebanese shell game which begins promises being exchange for Israeli withdrawals, and ultimately months of delay with no follow thru by Lebanon’s feckless govt.  Peace with Lebanon is a fiction built upon a promise with only a long list of similar broken promises to back it up.  Israel must follow thru on its initiative in Lebanon, and stop mowing the grass.  Seize the land south of the Litani River and extend a safety buffer north to the Awali River.  This will provide Israel with security, something which will never materialize from a Lebanese promise.

15:02 – CENTCOM says 6,000 combat missions completed, 50,000 U.S. troops remain deployed

Cooper noted the strategy toward dismantling Iran’s defense industrial base, stating, “It’s one thing to defend by striking launchers and intercepting missiles and drones, but it’s another thing to eliminate the wider manufacturing apparatus behind them. And we are doing that today.”

U.S. President Donald Trump said overnight that he is “demanding” that about seven countries join a coalition to secure the Strait of Hormuz and help reopen the critical waterway amid the ongoing war with the Iranian regime.

Peloni:  As the war rages in the Persian Gulf, and the Strait of Hormuz lies closed, pressure is building to have Israel realized as the vital cog in satiating the world’s energy markets.  Yet, this opportunity will not last forever…

As Iran disrupts shipping in the Strait of Hormuz, a long-overlooked alternative energy route could emerge through Israel; linking Saudi oil pipelines with the Eilat–Ashkelon line could reshape global energy flows

The current crisis in the Persian Gulf is not just another isolated event in the global energy arena. Iran’s blockade of the Strait of Hormuz and the laying of naval mines in this strategic passage have shaken global energy and trade markets.

Peloni:  This is a short must see video.  Retired Rear Admiral Mark Montgomery explains the four steps needed to be taken to secure the Straits of Hormuz and the good news is that it will only take two weeks for this to happen.  The bad news is that he is worried that Trump will take the short path towards avoiding such a victory, and if Trump does fail to secure the Straits of Hormuz, it will be a clear acknowledgement that the Iranians control the flow of oil out of what truly can be described as the Ayatollah’s Gulf.  Take the time to take the victory in the Straits of Hormuz, or face defeat.

Israel faces a multi-front siege. Iran and its proxies glorify the murder of Jews and openly call for the eradication of the Jewish state. International bodies created to prevent genocide and uphold human rights have been turned into arenas where Israel is singled out and threatened with law-fare. On Western campuses and in NGOs, Israel is branded apartheid and genocidal while terrorist organizations are rebranded as “resistance.”

Airstrikes, likely conducted by the US as part of the US-Israeli operation against the Islamic Republic, have continued targeting Iran-backed Iraqi militias. On March 12, the Popular Mobilization Forces (PMF), an official Iraqi security institution largely comprised of Iran-allied militias, told the Iraqi News Agency that US forces have conducted 32 airstrikes against PMF headquarters in the governorates of Anbar, Babylon, Diyala, Kirkuk, Nineveh, Salah al Din, and Wasit since February 28. The United States has not commented on any offensive military operations in Iraq.
