The damage trapped some people under the rubble of apartment buildings. Emergency crews digging through the wreckage pulled out the body of a 3-year-old child and the bodies of a mother and her 8-year-old son in the central Ukrainian city of Dnipro, officials said.

The attack stretched from night into day and the boom of explosions reverberated across cities. Officials said that 12 people were killed in Dnipro and six in Kyiv.

Kyiv residents had been on edge for days after Russia warned that a massive aerial attack was coming and warned foreign diplomats to leave the Ukrainian capital. None appeared to heed the call.

US forces attacked missile sites in southern Iran and boats trying to lay mines on Monday, US Central Command said, as top Iranian negotiators arrived in Doha for talks to end the war.

In the aftermath of the strikes, Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Mojtaba Khamenei issued a thinly veiled threat, warning that the US would no longer have any safe havens in the region.

“US forces conducted self-defense strikes in southern Iran today to protect our troops from threats posed by Iranian forces,” Tim Hawkins, a US Central Command spokesman, said in a statement.

It didn’t go well for Iran.  We blew up the Ayatollah, but they’re still threatening.  We must have some inside knowledge that says they can’t hit Tel Aviv, surely.  The Ayatollah is dead, along with numerous of replacements.  They thought they’d be safe underground, but they weren’t.

The media is screaming bloody murder, but they were warned.  How long have we been dealing with Muslim devotees?  This should have been done long ago.  But the whole world is seeing what the United States is capable of, and anxious to make friends with Donald Trump.  He has information that we’re not privy to, so there is that.  He sent a war armada to take care of Iran, and who knows?  Could Iran become an ally of the United States? 

It looks like we’re going to back off, but not yet.  They’re holding celebrations in the streets of Tehran, and it looks like the old regime, the one we’ve been living with since Jimmy Carter, will be no more.  I don’t know if we can stand seeing one of our, and Israel’s, greatest enemies on their knees.

We’ll have to see how this plays out, but I’m betting we know what we’re doing.

The rest of the world is how we left if, but everybody’s taking notice of what we’re doing to Iran.  It’s all over the Internet, but wherever you get your news it looks bad for the Mullahs. 

We’ve got many fish to fry, and Donald Trump may be making an example of Iran.  You think they’re not scurrying around all over the world?  I think believers have been made, all around the world.  You don’t cross this man.             

The whole world is taking notice.  I don’t know how many disputes this will solve, but I think everybody’s going to think twice before declaring war on one of our allies.          

I’m sure they took notice in Ukraine.  I don’t think much of Zelinski, but I’m sure he noticed and is jealous.  He’ll never have this kind of power at his disposal.  All the other bad guys on earth can’t have helped but take notice.  You don’t cross Mr. Trump.

The warhead of an Iranian missile hit a site just several dozen meters from the Old City of Jerusalem, and just several hundred meters from the Western Wall and the Temple Mount, during the course of Saturday, police announced on Sunday.

According to police, an explosion was heard and smoke was seen rising from a site just west of the Old City on Saturday morning, shortly after the beginning of the latest armed conflict with Iran.

It comes after what officials describe as an unprecedented infiltration of Iranian security services by Israeli agents.

Authorities suspect information fed to Israel played a part in a series of high-profile assassinations during the conflict. This included the targeted killings of senior commanders from the elite Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) and nuclear scientists, which Iran attributes to operatives of Israel’s Mossad intelligence agency working inside the country.

Shaken by the scale and precision of these killings, authorities have been targeting anyone suspected of working with foreign intelligence, saying it is for the sake of national security.

Everyone’s mind is on the war in the Middle East. Civilians have been killed as Iran fires off rockets indiscriminately into civilian enclaves. They apparently are firing rockets toward Tel Aviv not knowing where they’ll land, and you hear the reports, civilians killed.

Donald Trump is talking tough, like the U. S. may enter the war against Iran. We might already have. Nobody rightly knows the situation with the Ayatollah. Apparently they’ve hit places where they thought he was hiding. At this writing who knows whether we’ll be hearing any more from him? It looks like sheer defiance, and there are concerns about the other Arab states. They’ve all been talking behind the scenes and we don’t know what’s being said.  

The other Gulf states will be seen to be complicit if they don’t do something. We’ve been watching videos that reveal that some of the leaders in the Arab world have the highest regard for our President. Whether that means they can sit on their hands and do nothing…  You can only imagine the urgency assuming they’re still in touch with Iran.

Over the decades it’s been shown that the Iranians’ top leadership will engage in deceit. I’m not calling them liars, but deceiving the enemy has a long history. It’s not uncommon in times of war. These guys are acting like they can blow up the world. Let’s hope it doesn’t come to that. Trump has extended the olive branch. His only demand is they not enrich uranium, and put up with the humiliation of having inspectors reporting on facilities. The maintenance of pride is a big deal in that part of the world. Go figure.  

If Israel comes out of this intact and is seen to have won the war it might not sit well with the other Islamic nations. None of those kingdoms want to see a victorious Israel over a Muslim nation. Hopefully this thing doesn’t spread. Trump is hoping for a deal, but when he says it’s too late, it is.

The militant groups Iran was sponsoring have already been dealt huge blows ever since October 7, 2023. What those imbeciles did is unspeakable, and you can only imagine the outrage that swept Israel. The Arab countries don’t want Israel seen as triumphant over their ally.  

Trump says the U. S. could get involved. The media is already speculating that the bunker busting bombs that are being deployed against the Ayatollah’s hiding places are U. S. bombs. Trump is non-committal when asked if the U. S. will enter the war. Maybe next week, we’ll still be saying maybe. Let’s hope his strategy succeeds and some nuclear bombs don’t start wrecking everything. The FBI is currently monitoring the potential for Iranian sleeper cells in the U. S.

Against this backdrop, the war in Ukraine has almost slipped our consciousness. We’ve got that on the side burner, and are trying to get it stopped. The President is trying everything, but it may have gone too far. Once one side gets a taste of victory, all bets are off.

We’re going to have to watch carefully to see what happens with this Israel-Iran war. As everybody knows, Israel unleashed numerous strikes on Iranian targets.  They went after Iran’s nuclear program and key people in the regime. We’ll probably never know the details unless the Iranian people rise up and overthrow the Mullahs.  

The overview showing where Israel unleashed its missiles is available to see, but as I write Iran is exploding missiles in Tel Aviv. Trump is trying to get the Iranians to think twice, but they’re true zealots. The Iranian people should have had enough. After all, it was Jimmy Carter who stood by. The Shah fled and the weirdos took over. I doubt that anybody alive can forget it. And then at the last minute, he gave the go-ahead for a raid. But it was too late, and you know the outcome.  That may not have been what he intended, but that’s the way it worked out.  If you revisit the Carter debacle… On second thought, don’t.  It’s too depressing.

But it’s a brand new day, and Iran is feeling pretty tough. Recent years have seen them funding all kinds of terrorist groups, and the guys with turbans are ultimately responsible for a lot of the mayhem we’ve seen. But they are responding.  We’d all hoped that they’d take the opportunity to call the whole thing off and turn peaceful. But that’s not in their nature.  

Let’s hope this thing doesn’t get out of control. We wouldn’t want Russia or China getting involved. Hopefully they don’t want to cross swords with you know who.  No doubt, Iran is mad and wants revenge. It looks like Israel killed at least four or five of Iran’s top commanders, but there’s no shortage of lunatics in the Middle East.

These people lie to themselves and everybody else. They proclaim how brave they are, and that one of them can take out ten or twenty Israelis. I heard it all back in the day. These must be the children of those who were calling the shots back then. You don’t need me to tell you, these people are crazy! They boast and carry on, and you just have to smile and nod. 

Turns out there’s a disagreement between Trump and Newsom. We’ve been watching things go crazy in Los Angeles. I hope this isn’t true, but I read something suggesting that government agencies may be funding the protests. Many a loser has come out and suggested that the riots are just a matter of racial hatred on our part. That has no credibility. We just don’t want the United States to turn out like Mexico.

Peaceful protesters? I guess all those burning cars don’t count. The thing in L. A. is threatening to spread. Suddenly there are reports of marches and protests in places we’ve never heard of. The media is broken-hearted about the treatment of aliens. I’m starting to wonder if the stories about them voting have merit. The way the liberals are acting you might be tempted to wonder. You’ve probably read all about the conundrum and who’s winning the fight. To hear the news tell it, people are really upset about the aliens getting thrown out.  It’s going to take a while.  

I don’t know about you, but I like the United States being on top of things again. At least we’re not fighting everybody in the Middle East. Donald Trump’s visit to Saudi Arabia makes me think that there may be a few sane people in the Middle East, just not the majority.
