Four Israeli soldiers lost their lives today in Gaza.
From yesterday*
I appreciate all of you supporting the hot zone. Thank you for being here.
How do you think this is all going to end?
If you have wondered why Russia is losing so many men and Ukraine is not, this will help explain it. Russia is sending men into the front lines where they are killed by drone operators from Ukraine who are hundreds of miles away from the front lines.
At the beginning of creation, there was darkness and disorder, but when God first spoke, Light shone into the darkness (Genesis 1:1-5), not physical light because the stars (etc.) were made on the fourth day (Genesis 1:14-19), but the Light of the revelation of God's glory, truth and goodness. Likewise, before Christ illuminated our lives, our hearts were in darkness, but when we heard and believed the Gospel, Jesus shone into our hearts the revelation of the knowledge of God's glory (2 Corinthians 4:6). Instantly and permanently changing our identities into children of Light (Ephesians 5:8-9), new creations in Christ (2 Corinthians 5:17), born again spiritually in the likeness of God (1 John 3:9). Now, we are not of the darkness nor are we of the night, but of the Day and of the true Light (1 Thessalonians 5:4-5), according to God's grace in Christ!
I read just now that YET AGAIN our president has cancelled the attacks in Iran because they want to "make a deal." G-d help us! At this point I don't know what to believe about President Trump. I find this behavior more and more disturbing by the day. Am I wrong? What am I missing? We are praying daily for wisdom and knowledge for him so I feel I must be missing something but it doesn't feel like that is the case.

Even Xavier Becerra.
Becerra oversaw the loss of 450,000 frightened children who crossed our border under Joe Biden - who made that deadly journey ALONE - with no family to protect them.
Becerra let that happen and scolded his staff for processing those children tast enough.
And democrats want him to be California's next governor?
Now they love Graham Platner.

Candace Owens says she traveled to Russia for a family vacation, but there's a lot more to this story than sightseeing and church visits. In this video, I break down her appearance at a major Kremlin-linked event, the reality of religious freedom in Russia, the role of the Russian Orthodox Church in supporting Putin's war effort, and why Moscow benefits when influential Americans promote Russia as a model Christian society. We'll separate fact from narrative and look at what is really happening behind the headlines.
For months, the central question surrounding Iran has been whether the regime can withstand the economic and military pressure being applied by the United States and its allies.
This week, a different question emerged.
What if Iran is already getting what it wants?
President Trump continues to insist that Iran cannot be allowed to obtain a nuclear weapon. During a rare televised cabinet meeting, he pointed to Iran's economic collapse, soaring inflation, and internal instability as evidence that Tehran has little choice but to negotiate. According to Trump, Iran's leadership is feeling the pressure.
The problem is that pressure alone does not guarantee results.
Recent reports out of Iran claimed that negotiators were discussing a framework that would effectively grant Tehran greater influence over the Strait of Hormuz while postponing any serious discussion of its nuclear program. The White House has since dismissed those reports as false, but the episode exposed a growing concern among regional observers.
Negotiations appear to be moving slowly, while events on the ground continue moving in Iran's favor.
At the center of the debate is the Strait of Hormuz.
Roughly one-fifth of the world's oil supply normally passes through this narrow waterway. Whoever controls access to it holds significant leverage over global energy markets.
Before the conflict escalated, Iran did not possess the level of influence over shipping traffic that it does today. Now, according to several military analysts, Tehran has demonstrated an ability to disrupt one of the world's most important commercial chokepoints.
That reality is shaping every negotiation.
Retired General Jack Keane warned that Iran views control of the Strait as a strategic prize and has little incentive to surrender that leverage voluntarily. Gulf Arab states are watching closely. Their economies depend on stable energy exports, and many are increasingly uncertain about how the current negotiations will end.
The longer uncertainty continues, the more regional governments may begin making their own accommodations with Tehran.
Former CENTCOM Commander General Joseph Votel offered another important perspective.
Military action can weaken Iran. It can destroy infrastructure, degrade capabilities, and impose costs. But military force alone is unlikely to produce a lasting solution.
While most Americans were grilling burgers, watching baseball, or trying not to think about geopolitics for five minutes, the United States quietly carried out a major counterterrorism operation in Nigeria—and at the same time, all signs point to President Trump preparing for another possible strike on Iran. Those two stories may seem unrelated.
They’re not. They tell us a lot about where American foreign policy is headed, how terrorism has evolved, and why the Middle East may be far from finished exploding.
If you missed the LIVE, you can watch it HERE
President Trump announced that U.S. special operations forces, working alongside Nigerian forces, eliminated Abu Bal al-Minuki—the number two global leader of ISIS.
Or as I jokingly call them on YouTube so I don’t get demonetized: the “Black Pajama Boys.”
Now before you shrug this off as another headline from some faraway place most Americans can’t find on a map, understand what this means. ISIS never really disappeared. We destroyed their caliphate during the first Trump administration. We crushed their territorial control in Syria and Iraq. But the organization itself survived. The brand survived. And now the center of gravity for ISIS activity has shifted into Africa.
That’s where the war is.
Most Americans still think of terrorism through the lens of Iraq and Afghanistan. That’s outdated thinking. Today, the majority of ISIS activity is concentrated across parts of Africa—especially Nigeria and the surrounding region. And the violence there is horrific. Last year alone, more than 3,600 Christians were murdered in Nigeria.
Three thousand six hundred people slaughtered largely because of their faith. Some of that violence comes from ISIS-linked groups. Much of it comes from radicalized Fulani militants who attack Christian villages, burn homes, seize farmland, and massacre civilians. I’ve been to Nigeria. I’ve seen the fear people live under there. And while the world’s media obsesses over American politics 24 hours a day, entire Christian communities are being erased in parts of Africa with barely a mention.
There’s a growing mindset in America that says:
“America First means America Only.”
I disagree. If we have the ability to stop terrorists before they spread globally, we should do it. Not because we’re the world’s babysitter. But because history shows that when terrorists are allowed to build safe havens overseas, eventually Americans die too. That’s not theory. That’s exactly what happened before 9/11. And ISIS has adapted. Instead of focusing solely on controlling territory, they’re now investing heavily in online radicalization.
They recruit lone wolves.
They inspire attacks remotely.
They spread propaganda globally.
That means the battlefield isn’t just Nigeria anymore. It’s your phone.
At the same time all this is happening, the Iran situation is getting more dangerous by the day. President Trump openly admitted that negotiations with Iran keep collapsing because Tehran repeatedly agrees to terms… and then pretends the conversation never happened. That’s because Iran was never negotiating in good faith to begin with. They’re stalling. Trying to preserve their nuclear capability while avoiding another American strike.
And meanwhile, the regime is preparing its own population for possible war. Iran reportedly sent text messages asking citizens whether they’d be willing to “martyr themselves for the regime.” Think about how insane that is. At the same time, Iranian state television has literally been airing AK-47 training sessions for civilians—although judging by the footage, some of these guys shouldn’t be trusted with a Nerf gun. One instructor accidentally fired a round through the ceiling of the studio during a live demonstration.
Funny? Sure. Also revealing. Because it tells you the regime is nervous.
A lot of people think this conflict is mainly about nuclear weapons. It’s not. The real issue is control of the Strait of Hormuz—the narrow waterway through which a huge percentage of the world’s oil flows. Iran wants control over it. The rest of the world cannot allow that. That’s why the U.S. still has major naval forces positioned in the region right now, even after the ceasefire. And according to multiple reports, additional military strikes could happen as soon as this week.
What we’re watching right now is a transition. America appears to be moving back toward aggressive counterterrorism operations overseas while simultaneously preparing for the possibility of a larger regional conflict with Iran. And unlike the endless nation-building experiments of the past, these operations are increasingly:
That’s the future of warfare. But it also means the world is becoming more unstable—not less.
Here’s the reality nobody wants to admit:
The bad guys never stopped organizing.
ISIS adapted.
Iran stalled.
China maneuvered.
Russia escalated.
Terror groups spread into Africa.
And the world kept pretending everything was returning to normal.
It isn’t. The question isn’t whether America should engage with threats overseas. The question is whether we deal with them there… or wait until they show up here. Because history has already answered that question once. And it cost us thousands of lives.
Stay alert. Stay informed. And as always—keep your head on a swivel.
