In the first days, according to IDF Intelligence sources, accomplishments actually exceeded expectations. Speedily, the Israeli Air Force achieved air superiority over Iranian skies. By now, approximately 70% of Iran’s missile launchers have been rendered inoperable and Iran’s missile production capability currently stands at zero.

In his Saturday, March 15 show: Mark’s opening segment focused on what should be understood to be the central strategic challenges which are facing America in its conflict with Iran. He explains directly with no courtesy – this is not only a contest vs. the external enemies in Iran, but also with the internal political opposition – which is actively attempting to undermine the war effort which is required for US security.

I have been telling you for years, with evidence, documentation, and a consistent pattern of behavior, that the Islamic Republic is not sustained by ideology alone but by individuals placed at critical points of control. These are not symbolic figures. These are men whose decisions translate directly into policy, enforcement, and consequences for millions.

Peloni:  The streets of Iran are being cleared of the totalitarian forces holding the people in check.  The campaign to give the people of Iran a voice and a choice is well underway.  Soon, this choice will be left to them to either remain shackled to the overlords who murders literally tens of thousands of people for simply voicing their oppositon, and doing so without hesitation, or to seek a better path towards a brighter future.

Analysts and advocacy voices warn that key structural issues must be addressed before any ceasefire agreement is considered sustainable.

By: David Bedein | The J.Ca | Mar 16, 2026

Over the next weeks and months, Israel will be pressured by the US into accepting a ceasefire.

However, before agreeing to a ceasefire, fundamental issues must be brought to the forefront to show that the war conducted by the Palestinians and their Iranian allies is far from over.

• The official Voice of Palestine, operating on Israeli government radio and TV frequencies, continues its daily incitement.

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.

Peloni:  While the world was fixated on counting Netanyahu’s fingers, the key figure behind the slaughter of the 30-50,000 Iranian protesters in January of this year was assassinated.  Coincident to this enormous victory, the commander of the internal Basij militia, Gholamreza Soleimani, was likewise assassinated in an Israeli overnight strike in Tehran, as was the majority of the Basij leadership… this is a major step forward for the Iranian people to take back their state.

U.S. President Donald Trump recently called on Western allies to help secure shipping lanes in the Gulf, urging European navies and other partners to contribute forces to protect global commerce and regional stability. The request highlights a longstanding reality of international conflict: Wars and security crises are rarely fought by a single nation alone. Coalitions form, partners contribute in different ways and throughout history, even peoples without a sovereign state have found ways to organize and fight alongside larger powers.

Dear Ms. Rama Duwaji,

You publicly liked social media posts describing the Oct. 7, 2023 attack on Israel by Hamas as “collective liberation.” You also placed a heart next to an Instagram post claiming that the reports of mass rapes on Oct. 7 were a “hoax.”

For several decades after the Cold War, American foreign policy presented itself as a moral project. The United States, it was said, would no longer merely defend its interests abroad; it would help build democracy. Dictatorships would be replaced by representative governments, institutions would be strengthened, and societies would gradually move toward liberal norms. As Natan Sharansky argued in his book The Case for Democracy: The Power of Freedom to Overcome Tyranny and Terror (2004), liberal democracies are less likely to go to war with one another, thus warranting prolonged peace. The policy sounded morally attractive. Unfortunately, it also proved enormously expensive and rarely successful.
