Peloni:  The clear security implications raised in this article have a direct bearing on the proposed sale of US F35s now being considered for various Arab states.  Becareful to whom you sell such vital strategic assets, because it one day you might live to seriously regret it.

On March 4, 2026, U.S. Secretary of War Pete Hegseth said: “Starting last night and to be completed in a few days, in under a week, the two most powerful Air Forces in the world will have complete control of Iranian skies, uncontested airspace.”[1] Nevertheless, on April 3, the Iranians managed to down not only a U.S. Air Force F-15E Strike Eagle, but also, reportedly, an A-10 Warthog.[2]

*Israel’s unique challenges and brainpower have made it a critical platform for research & development centers of some 250 US commercial high tech giants (e.g., Google, John Deere, Nvidia, Microsoft, Facebook, Dell, Apple, Texas Instruments, Intel, Johnson & Johnson, Intuit, General Electric), which have leveraged Israel’s capabilities, in order to bolster their global leadership, generating mega-billion of dollars to the US economy.

Peloni:  We seem to be trapped in a time loop, in which the US demands Hamas disarm while giving them a deadline which is ultimately ignored and then after everyone ignoring the fact that this routine has been going on since October, the same set of event seamlessly repeats itself.  These self celebratory savages need to be defeated, not by committees or press conferences, but by bunker busters and F35s.  Their being defeated and destroyed in battle is what will bring about peace, not their compliance with any thing emerging from the well displayed flagging efforts of the Board of Peace to avoid this ultimate resolution in Gaza.

The terror group in the Gaza strip has—no surprise—been dragging their feet on the earlier agreement to disarm. It’s an early test for Trump’s Board of Peace.

I can’t believe we are still having this conversation.

Peloni:  This offers a good roundabout of issues which will weigh in on the answer to the question of who surrendered to whom.  Notably, perhaps the most pertinent set of questions was left unspoken here, and they relate the importance of Iran to China, China to the region, and the struggle between the US and China in the region.

Peloni:  Trump Blinks Bigly!  Trump’s call for Iran’s unconditional surrender turns into negotiations based on a  plan which calls for a US surrender and full retreat from the region.  This humiliating reversal will undermine US influence in the region, while leaving US allies in an unenviable position of having American resolve to support them instantaneously crumble… or is there more going on than we are acknowledging.  In fact, none of this makes sense if we ignore the recent report of Iran’s threat to use chemical weapons which would devastate the region, while grasping the implications of this report in the hours before Trump’s reversal might explain a great deal.  Indeed, accepting the 10-Point Plan would in fact be a hudna, but might it not be one of Trump’s own making while buying time to either reconsider the situation under this latest escalation.

As of April 2026, Marco Rubio is weighing a dramatic overhaul of the American military footprint in Europe—reviewing plans to shutter as much as 80% of U.S. bases after key NATO allies, including Spain and France, refused to grant access to bases and airspace during the Iran conflict.

Many if not most Americans and westerners will cringe at the language used below by President Trump against Iran threatening that “A whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again.”

The PA is skewing the Home Front’s rules meant for protection of worshipers during the ongoing war to claim danger to Al Aksa and incite the Arab population. This is nothing new.

Dr. Alex Grobman |   Apr 7, 2026

The Palestinian Authority (PA) never wastes an opportunity to foment incitement against Israel. Since the US and Israel launched a military campaign against the Iranian regime on February 28, 2026, Israel initiated a nationwide state of emergency prohibiting mass gatherings at all major religious places of worship, including the Al-Aqsa Mosque, the Western Wall, and the Church of the Holy Sepulcher, citing the risk of retaliatory missile strikes in densely populated areas.

Peloni:  Zineb Riboua, research fellow with Hudson Institute’s Center for Peace and Security in the Middle East, explains that regime change in Iran is increasingly likely and that conditions are aligning to make it happen without a traditional ground invasion. Weakened internally by economic collapse, public unrest, and declining legitimacy, while externally facing sustained pressure from the U.S. and Israel the moment is maturing in which a final piece of the puzzle might finally be put into play.  Internal dissatisfaction among Iranians is this key factor, as regime change will, and should, come from within Iran rather than being imposed exclusively by outside forces alone.  To achieve the point of critical mass where the scales between the power of the Iranian people and that of the IRGC, the US-Israeli coalition have come to employ specific military strikes, financial pressure, and disruption of the regime’s power structures.  The rest will be in the hands of the Iranian people themselves, who have likely been motivated well enough to act on this opportunity, but still needs the arms and munitions to clean up what remains of the power structure still held by the IRGC.  But that too is being attended to according to recent statements by Trump.

SOURCES: IRAN HAS THREATENED TO USE CHEMICAL WEAPONS AGAINST ISRAEL – AND THE UNITED STATES HAS RESPONDED WITH A WARNING THAT IT COULD “WIPE IRAN OFF THE MAP.”

Any use of chemical weapons wouldn’t stay contained — it would unleash dangerous contamination across the entire region, far beyond Israel.

Praying for everyone in harm’s way.
