Lebanons’ second chance  

Peloni:  Lebanon must produce results, full stop.  No let up on military pressure, and no release of prisoners, and no concessions of any kind should be offered.  Also, Israel should put her sites on clearing the area upto the Awali River, not just to the Litani, which is still quite close to Israel’s borders.

This conflict could finally free Beirut from Hezbollah

When Hezbollah launched attacks on northern Israel on October 8, 2023, ostensibly in solidarity with Hamas, Israel initially considered confronting its stronger northern adversary first before shifting focus south to take on Hamas in Gaza. The Biden Administration vetoed this approach, warning of potential regional or global escalation. Israel therefore prioritised operations in Gaza while engaging in tit-for-tat exchanges with Hezbollah.

Background: U.S. Government Warnings

Unconditional surrender and reform  

The US victories in World War II (WWII) over Nazi Germany and Imperial Japan offer profound lessons on transforming militant dictatorships, led by cult-like virtually religious ideologues.

The terrorist theocratic Iranian Regime, with unabated nuclear ambitions, in a long-standing state of war of aggression against the US and Israel, is now facing extinction. Coordinated airstrikes by the U.S. (Operation Epic Fury) and Israel (Operation Roaring Lion), targeting the Regime and IRGC leadership, ballistic missile launchers, nuclear sites, military sites, air defenses and naval assets, have been devastatingly successful.

However, notwithstanding the elimination of Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, the Regime rejected surrender and continues its aggression with missile/drone attacks against U.S. bases and sites in the region and civilian targets in Israel, as well as the Gulf Arab States.

Iran’s 2,300-Mile Big Lie Just Exploded: Missiles Fired at Diego Garcia, Thousands of Miles From Tehran  

Peloni: The pretense that an Armageddonis terror regime which has chanted death to America for 50yrs is not a threat to the US while it builds nuclear bombs, along with the missiles capable of delivering these bombs to cities around the US, was always based on something between political rhetoric and fantastical non-realities.  The threat lies in their attempts at maturing the capabilities to fulfill the hopes enshrined in their chants of Death to America.  Some will say that this failed attack on Diego Garcia was the first shot demonstrating this truth, but the reality is that the shots against America began decades ago, in the murder of American servicemen and American citizens across the globe.  Indeed, the slaughter of thousands of Americans demonstrated the intent of the Iranian regime, even as they have bankrupted their nation trying to develop capabilities to fulfill the greater realization of that intent.

“Iran is not a threat.”

Iran just proved it can strike over 2,300 miles—hitting Diego Garcia with missiles it insisted didn’t exist. This wasn’t a test. It was a revelation.

Ambassador (ret.) Yoram Ettinger | “Second Thought: a US-Israel Initiative” | March 20, 2026

Watch the video by clicking photo below and read the full original Op-Ed here:

The annual $3.8 billion US investment in Israel (misperceived as “foreign aid”) is the most profitable strategic investment in US history. This video explores how Israel serves as a unique economic and defense force-multiplier for the US, yielding an outsized Return-on-Investment. From upgrading the F-35 and surging its exports, to providing intelligence worth “five CIAs,” the partnership saves the US billions in R&D and replaces the need for multiple aircraft carriers. Discover why this alliance is a critical, mutually-beneficial two-way street for US national security and prosperity.

 October 7 and the Collapse of Western Nerve  

The language of nuance has become a cover for cowardice, moral inversion, and paralysis in the face of terror and Iran’s ambitions.

The Pretense of “Nuance”

Let’s stop pretending.

What we are witnessing is not confusion or nuance. It is cowardice—cloaked in sophistication, marketed as restraint, and defended as wisdom.

Israel Update: Trump’s Dilemna: Win It or End It?  

Peloni: Mike Doran and Gadi Taub discuss the current events in the war in Iran and beyond.  Mike addresses the West’s lack of competence in dealing with the Islamist threat on its own shores while also provides an interesting explanation for how there are two clocks counting down which will decide if Trump will declare victory after achieving it or in lieu of achieving it.  He also argues that while he hopes to see the fall of the IRGC, if they are not defeated in this war, there are still many important tools which can defeat them long term.  The second half of the program addresses the campaign in Lebanon and the fallout surrounding the Yemeni Fields Affair.

How Dubai’s Safe-Haven Status Is Being Tested  

Peloni:  A city dependent upon stability and economic investment is being rocked by the rigors of war and a reluctance to do more than adopt a defensive posture.  Will Dubai survive this challenge or will they once again show themselves to be the quintessential resilient nation, which previously survived the 2008 economic crisis and the Covid shutdown?

Iranian-backed militia in Iraq sends mixed messages about new attacks  

Kataib Hezbollah said it might pause attacks on US targets in Iraq, but its strict and unlikely conditions suggest strikes could resume soon.

By SETH J. FRANTZMAN | MARCH 19, 2026

Kataib Hezbollah, a powerful Iranian-backed militia, might cease its attacks in Iraq if certain conditions are met, it said Wednesday.

It has asked Israel to halt its operations in Beirut. But it has also created other conditions that make it seem unlikely it would comply with its offer.
