This morning, the world changed.
After years of escalating threats, rocket fire, proxy wars, and nuclear brinkmanship, Israel struck deep into Iran—targeting nuclear infrastructure and military assets. It was a historic declaration: enough is enough. The era of appeasement is over.
Let’s call it what it is: one of the most courageous acts of leadership by any nation in our time. And tragically, it had to be done alone.
This was not just a defensive strike. It was a moment of clarity, conviction, and courage. It came not from Washington, not from Brussels—but from a small democratic nation surrounded by enemies, standing alone that had to confront the world’s leading sponsor of terrorism. For too long, the U.S. and Europe played for time. Time that Iran used to enrich uranium, arm Russia, fund terror, and destabilize every corner of the globe.
This was not symbolic grandstanding. Israel was not just acting in its own defense. It was striking on behalf of the free world – it was on behalf of peace, security, and civilization itself.
For too long, regime change in Iran has been treated like a dirty word in polite diplomatic circles. Today, that fiction is over. Israel took action—unilaterally, decisively, and morally.
The fact that Israel is standing alone is equally real and equally tragic.
Israel’s actions are both heroic and damning. A searing indictment of the Biden administration, and equally shameful to generations of dithering European and Western leaders who allowed Iran to rise unchecked while peddling delusions of diplomacy, while Iran defied every global agreement. Iran was censured by the United Nations’ International Atomic Energy Agency inspectors—just this week—for blatant nuclear violations, which concluded it had enriched sufficient uranium to supply 9-10 nuclear warheads.
