Carlson, DOJ, CIA and Iran…Interesting  

Text: 

Tucker Carlson is now claiming Trump’s CIA is going to refer him to the DOJ for charges of FARA (Foreign Agent Registration Act) violations. He says the case would go nowhere.

“So the crime under consideration apparently would be the Foreign Agents Registration Act or something like that, acting as an agent of a foreign power.

And I don’t expect this to go anywhere. I’m not worried about an actual criminal case against me for a bunch of reasons. One, I’m not an agent of a foreign power, unlike a lot of people commenting on U.S. politics and global affairs.

It’s my job to talk and try and figure out what’s happening around the world. That’s literally what I do for a living, and I’m not going to stop doing that. Nor should I.

I’m an American. I can talk to anybody. I have no secrets to divulge. So legally, I think the case is ludicrous, and I doubt it’ll even become a case.

For a couple of reasons: one, countries tend to be more authoritarian in wartime. The stakes are high, people’s emotions have risen to a very high point, to a crescendo, and so there is much less tolerance for any kind of dissent in the homeland.

The irony of course is that the United States fights wars on behalf of freedom, but there is always less of it here in our country during war. So that’s a widely recognized phenomenon that’s likely to happen now too.”

If the DOJ is going to charge Tucker for FARA violations, their reasoning for that would be obviously all his overseas trips, including:

Going to Russia and interviewing Vladimir Putin.

Interviewing Satanist Aleksandr Dugin and Tucker later saying he was “deeply impacted” by him.

Interviewing the leader of Qatar.

Speaking at forums in Qatar, saying the country is wonderful even though it has slave labor, and buying a house there.

Interviewing the President of Iran just a few months ago.

It should also be worth pointing out that Laura Loomer said that she has been reporting Tucker to the DOJ.

It’s also possible that Tucker is making this up. We saw how he lied about being detained when he went to Israel to interview Mike Huckabee.

I don’t have any inside knowledge into this so I can only guess.

The Soldiers Are Innocent  

Peloni:  Every step taken to secure the Leftist control over the bureacratic state onlys serves to certify its defeat.  Notably, two pivotal scandals, the Sde Teiman Prison Affair and the Spy Affair, were forced to be resolved using insanity pleas to excuse the actions which caused significant harm to the reputation and security of the state, it also revealed the level of duplicity which would be taken to ignore any further investigation holding others accountable for their role in these matters, even as the insanity pleas should only have shielded those who claimed this defense.  So, literally scores of potentially complicit defendants will go unquestioned in these scandals as judged by the judges and prosecutors whose role in these matters are themselves publicly questioned… and this is an even greater scandal which all can see quite readily.

Avi Abelow

The soldiers are innocent.

After over a year of global humiliation, accusations, and headlines portraying Israeli soldiers as monsters, the case against the IDF fighters in the so-called Sde Teiman prison affair has collapsed.

Iranian Regime Clerics Flee to Safe Harbor of Canada?  

Sundance |  Mar 14, 2026

This is quite a remarkable development.  Someone in the Toronto airport captured video of Iranian Cleric Hojjatoleslam Morteza Tayebi arriving in Canada yesterday [Video Here].  As the story is told, apparently 700+ members of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), who carry out regime terrorism, reside or have dual citizenship in Canada.

Explosion rocks Amsterdam Jewish school in what mayor says is ‘targeted attack’ against Jewish community  

Paul Schnee:  It is almost impossible to believe that this is the same country whose citizens and resistance fighters saved thousands of Jews from the Nazis by hiding families, forging documents, and rescuing children from deportation centers.

Highly brave and impressive actions included the 1941 February strike against anti-Jewish measures, hiding people like Anne Frank, and smuggling children out of Amsterdam’s Hollandsche Schouwburg to safe houses.

China’s ‘Antisemitic Wave’  

Peloni:  When reading this important essay by Hugh Fitzgerald, please take note of the fact that Washington’s interest in this war have always been motivated by its China policy.  When doing so, as Haviv Rettig Gur recently noted, you will grasp many things which would otherwise never be apparent.

Old hatreds, new propaganda from Beijing.

It used to be said that China was one of the very few places on earth that had never experienced antisemitism. That proud boast can no longer be made. At the direction of Xi Jinping, China has turned up the volume of its official Israel-hatred, for reasons of state, including the desire to win Arab favor and contracts, and because the Chinese figure that if Israel is a loyal and effective ally of the United States, then it must perforce be understood to be an enemy of China. More on China’s display of state-encouraged antisemitism can be found here: “China Unleashes ‘Antisemitic Wave’ Amid Gaza Conflict, New Report Shows,” by David Michael Swindle, Algemeiner, February 24, 2026:

The War With Iran Was Decades in the Making  

From the 1953 coup to the Islamic Revolution, Washington helped create the regime it now confronts—and stopping halfway will only guarantee a worse war later.

HUGE ESCALATION: U.S. Crosses Iran’s ‘RED LINE’ By ‘Obliterating’ Kharg Island Military Targets  

Peloni:  An important context can be gleaned from the military strikes on Kharg Island.  So long as the strikes are targeted at the military installations while preserving the oil infrastructure, it can be assumed that the outcome of the war is still directed towards a Western focused govt taking over in Iran, as the oil would provide the financial basis of this emerging Western aligned regime.  Should the military strikes begin to target the oil infrastructure, it would signal an understanding by the US that the existing regime is too well entrenched and that the oil infrastructure provides support for this entrenchment, thus making it a necessary target.  Kharg Island is a pivotal aspect of Iran’s economic lifeline, so US attacks on it provides an important bellwether insight into the US strategic outlook.  The economic model supporting the existing regime and its various regional/global proxies would be greatly compromised if the energy infrastructure on Kharg Island was destroyed, but destroying it would also compromise any regime which might emerge as a result of such an attack

Israel shifts to hyperlocal targeting in Iran as regime military power degrades (March 11-13 updates)  

Janatan Sayeh

Screengrab via YoutubeScreengrab via Youtube Click Photo for Video

The Iran conflict has entered a new phase after US–Israeli strikes have destroyed key military infrastructure, killed thousands of regime personnel, and degraded Iran’s missile and drone launch rates. Israel has shifted toward hyperlocal targeting of repression units and regime figures inside Tehran, often aided by intelligence from Iranians on the ground. Simultaneously, the Islamic Republic has publicly projected stability after Mojtaba Khamenei’s elevation to supreme leader, despite Khamenei’s continued absence from public view and some signs of internal strain.

Three Tweets in Three Days By Rabbi Herzog  

Rabbi Jacob Herzog | X | Mar 11, 2026

Today’s talk is about the film “The King of Bahrain,” Iran’s strike on the Sultanate of Oman, the lie about revoking citizenships in Jordan, and the conflict among Zayed’s sons after the war.

* Iran’s Supreme Leader, Mojtaba Khamenei, is not dead yet; he is fighting between life and death. Even if he dies, the Iranian authorities will not announce it, and you will see AI-generated videos just as other rulers have done. In all cases, the matter is not important because the entire Iranian regime will be destroyed.

Iran is systematically taking out crucial US missile defense tools: reports  

Peloni:  The below article details how Iran has been conducting a campaign against U.S. missile defense infrastructure in the region since the war began, aimed specifically at degrading the radar and detection systems involved with U.S. defensive network capabilities in Western Asia. It cites Pentagon confirmation that Iran struck a $300 million radar system at Muwaffaq Salti Air Base in Jordan stating that these radars are the essential core of systems like THAAD, because they detect incoming missiles, track their paths, and guide interceptor launches.

The synagogue was destroyed and 9 of the 30 Jews within the shelter were murdered.
