Trump on the report on N12: US Army Chief of Staff Dan Cane does not oppose an attack on Iran

JD Vance would be like Tucker Carlson if he had his way.

US warns against travel to Lebanon.

If war with Iran breaks out, Hezbollah is expected to join the fighting this time around.

Minister of National Security, Itamar Ben-Gvir:

"I commend the Southern District Commander Chaim Bublil, Negev Area Commander Deputy Chief Amir Klein, YAMAR Commander Superintendent Avi Vaknin, the Israel Police officers, and the National Guard fighters of Commissioner Nahshon for the operation of the agent and the professional and determined activity that led to the capture of criminals who made life bitter for the residents in the Bedouin diaspora and beyond - doing what hasn't been done here in thirty years."

Senator Graham about Khamenei:

He is a liar. He is a snake. They are committed to the destruction of humanity as we know it.

Senator Graham:

Let's allow the people, with our help, to bring him down. If the [regime] of the Ayatollah falls — Hamas, Hezbollah, the Houthis, and all proxy terrorist groups will collapse.

Saudi Arabia will return to the negotiating table to try to normalize relations with Israel.

The entire Middle East will become a new place [and] the world will be a much better place."

The Arizona State House of Representatives adopted a resolution recognizing Israel's sovereignty over the West Bank and stipulating that the state will use the term "Judea and Samaria" instead of "the West Bank"

📝 Zelensky: Today we mark exactly four years since Putin began his "three-day" operation to capture Kyiv. This says a lot about our resistance, about how Ukraine has fought all this time. We have every right to say: we defended our independence, we did not lose our country, Putin did not achieve his goals. He did not break the Ukrainians, he did not win this war. We preserved Ukraine, and we will do everything to ensure peace and justice.

Continuing to crash alone:

Report from Reuters news agency:

Israel has issued an indirect warning to Lebanon that if Hezbollah joins a possible confrontation between the United States and Iran, Israel will carry out heavy strikes and may even target civilian infrastructure.

According to senior Lebanese sources, the message was conveyed through intermediaries, emphasizing that Lebanon will bear responsibility for any action originating from its territory – even if the Lebanese state is not directly involved.

The warning was delivered against the backdrop of increasing regional tensions surrounding Iran, with Israeli officials signaling a readiness to escalate if Hezbollah joins a broader conflict.

Official page of the American Republican Party: Time for Iran is running out. Take Trump's warnings seriously; because he acts on them.

Reporter: Does Trump consider the Islamic Republic a threat?

White House: The Islamic Republic chants "Death to America," so you tell us whether that is a threat or not.

White House on Iran:

Trump's first option is always diplomacy, but as he has shown, if necessary, he is willing to use the lethal military force of the United States.

I have seen many exaggerated reports in the past day that are completely incorrect.

Anyone who guesses to the media, hides behind an anonymous source, and pretends to know what Trump is thinking or what decision he will make regarding action against Iran, has no idea what they are talking about.

White House on Iran:

The Midnight Hammer operation was a very successful mission that actually destroyed Iran's nuclear facilities.

This does not mean that Iran will never try again to develop a nuclear program.

Jack Keane, former Vice Chief of Staff of the U.S. Army:

Why should we make a deal with these people when we know they are lying to us right now? They have lied to us for the past 46 years and will continue to lie and cheat.
14Given that the Islamic Republic has become very weak and we now have a historic opportunity, we should do nothing to prolong its life, but finally create the conditions for the regime's collapse. We have never been in such a position in the past 47 years.

Our forces have eliminated 2 terrorists in Beit Lahia, in the northern Gaza Strip.

Prime Minister Netanyahu:

On one side, we are facing a wounded Shia axis, but there is also the Sunni Muslim Brotherhood axis.

We are interested in creating our own axis — an axis of countries that oppose both extremist Islamic axes.

This includes many countries. Some are visiting us these days; others we visit.

I am talking about a full circle that encompasses the Middle East.

I wanted to use a suitable biblical expression for Purim — "from Hodu to Cush" — very close, and everything in between, extending to the Mediterranean.

A new axis.
