The path to the mullahs’ ‘unconditional surrender’  

Peloni:  Recognizing the limit of any potential unconditional surrender leads to the proper understanding of what can be achieved while pursing the policy of unconditional surrender:  enabling the rise of the Iranian people to claim their right of personal and national dignity while playing the role of their own liberators while supported by and coordinated with the US and Israeli war being waged against their oppressors.

The Iranian ayatollahs are the modern-day Circumcellions whose time is up.

The path to the Mahdist mullahs’  ‘unconditional surrender’

When U.S. President Donald Trump stated that he expects this war with the Islamic Republic to end with an unconditional surrender, it set off a debate over what that might mean and how it will happen. To answer these questions, one needs to understand the nature of the Iranian regime.

Some believe that the regime’s bottom line remains the preservation of the Islamic Revolution. And that any compromise could be entertained if it were to help secure the longevity and resilience of that revolution.

Why America Must Defend Itself From The China-Canada Alliance  

China’s infiltration of Canada has become dangerously widespread, presenting a major threat, and the U.S. has every reason to reevaluate its policies toward its northern neighbor.

Janet Levy | Am Thinker | March 11, 2026

Last week, The Bureau revealed that in 2020, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) visited a lab belonging to Bobby Shah, also known as Bahman Djebelibak, a Vancouver businessman sanctioned by the U.S. Treasury for links to a Chinese drug syndicate.

Turkey’s Reckless Gambit In The Eastern Mediterranean: Undermining U.S. Interests And Sowing Regional  

Peloni:  One of the great challenges for the current US administrations has been to deal with the threat emanating from Turkey which it has failed to contain in many ways.  The early failures to restrain Turkey over the past year has only emboldened the delusional fantasies of Turkey extending its colonial control over the Middle East and Eastern Europe.  This will only serve to undermine Trump’s efforts for a Asia pivot as well as the establishment of the IMEC.

Turkey’s foreign policy under the authoritarian rule of President Recep Tayyip Erdo?an has devolved into a brazen exercise in neo-Ottoman expansionism, flagrantly disregarding international norms and prioritizing territorial aggrandizement over NATO alliance obligations. Officials in Ankara like to describe it as “strategic autonomy.”

Politicide, The Attempted Murder of the Jewish State  

Peloni:  Along the Left Hand Column of the Israpundit page are a list of influential and significant books.  In talking with my friend and mentor, Ted Belman, z’l, he once described it as the Banner of Great Books.  In any event, the latest important work we are adding to this column is by my dear and inspiring friend Victor Sharpe and which really warranted being listed here long ago, something to which I know Ted would have very much agreed.  It is the invaluable series “Politicide” by Victor Sharpe.  Our readers here on Israpundit will be familiar with Victor’s numerous important contributions here on Israpundit, all of which are marked by his wit, knowledge and ability to both grasp as well as to articulate the truth as a shield against the open and growing bias raised against our beloved Israel in a world growing mad with rampant Jew Hatred.  So I encourage people to reading Victor’s works collected in a four part series beginning with the first volume of Politicide, The Attempted Murder of the Jewish State”.

Victor Sharpe

Politicide is a word coined by the late Israeli statesman, Abba Eban, to describe the act of murdering a State: that state being the nation of Israel.

A Rare & Poignant Message From Behind Iranian Digital Blackout  

Peloni:  The anxiety of the Iranian people once again being abandoned by the West belies the reality that this is their one real chance to be free from the overlordship of the Ayatollahs and their IRGC and Basij enforcers.  The moment for the long overdue emancipation of the Iranian people is at hand, and if this message is in any way representative of the pulse of the Iranian people, they are ready to do whatever is needed to retake control over their country, their lives, and their destiny.  Trump’s stated policy Unconditional Surrender is the way to fulfill both the freedom promised to the Iranian people and stability in region.

There Was a Jihad Bombing in New York City, and Here’s How Mamdani and the Media Framed It

New York City has not only just experienced yet another jihad terror attack; it also has just given us a particularly revolting example of the leftist tactic of DARVO: Deny, Attack, Reverse Victim and Offender. In New York and in the establishment media today, when Islamic jihadis strike, it’s another instance of “Islamophobia” and Muslims are the victims.

Lebanon Weighs Legal Action Against Hezbollah’s Chief as Israel’s Northern Front Turns Deadly  

Peloni:  The chatter about legal actions by the Lebanese govt against Hezbollah should be given the same level of disregard which Lebanon has earned in threatening to disarm Hezbollah for decades, most recently failing to act on the latest iteration of this comedy hour routine missed yet one more deadline imposed on Lebanon to do so.  Action rather than words will revolutionize the situation in Lebanon, yet the Lebanese govt has neither the political will nor the military capacity to throw off the yoke of Iranian capture which has held Lebanon helplessly in its grip over the past decades.  This, however, should be understood to be a failure of the international community, most recently led by the efforts of US Amb. Tom Barrack, who has consistently claimed Lebanon could and would do what remains impossible for Lebanon to contemplate:  acting upon their own sovereign interests while being occupied and controlled by an Iranian proxy force while it still infiltrates its population, its political infrastructure, and most importantly its military capabilities.

Meanwhile Jolani’s Syrian forces are massing on Lebanon’s border under the guise of ‘border security,’ belying the greater interest which the Turkish proxy in Syria  would have in extending Turkey’s conquest to next include Lebanon where the Muslim Brotherhood might next focus its unopposed slaughter of non-Sunni Muslim minorities.  It was a vital mistake for Washington to support Turkey’s suzerainty over Syria, the implications of which pose to have a serious impact on the future of Lebanon.

As if the irony of having the Lebanese tell the world what they want to hear was not evident enough in the below report, see this latest amusing article about Lebanon now offering peace with Israel, if only Israel would end its campaign against Hezbollah.  Actions, not words, is what will determine Lebanon’ fate, yet cheap talk is all that Lebanon has to offer anyone.

Mark Dubowitz | Mar 8, 2026

Reports from Beirut suggest Lebanese Justice Minister Adel Nassar is considering “legal action” against Hezbollah’s leader, Naim Qassem.

What would Tucker Carlson learn at my Passover seder table?  

Every Jewish prayer service contains liturgy that consistently speaks about Jerusalem and the Holy Temple.

“Chabad has been pushing in a pretty subtle way, unless you look carefully, for the reconstruction of the Third Temple.” — Tucker Carlson, March 4, 2026

If this year, former Fox News host and current podcaster Tucker Carlson were to attend a traditional Passover seder, like the one my family and I celebrate, he would learn that Chabad’s yearning for the building of the Third Temple is not something outside of mainstream Jewish thought. It lies at the very core of it and has done so ever since that darkest of days when the Second Temple in Jerusalem was destroyed by the Romans.
