In the world of deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act.
It's the David Knight Show.
As the clock strikes 13, it is Wednesday, the 25th of June, year of our Lord, 2025.
Seems like Trump's devastating strike on Iran might not have been as devastating as he wanted to make out.
Meet a would-be mass shooter foiled at a church.
We'll take a look at that and more.
Stay with us.
Well, good morning, folks, as I said.
It seems like perhaps Donald Trump's strike on Iran wasn't as important as he made it out to be.
Perhaps it didn't actually accomplish even what little he thought it might.
Seems like they may have either moved the uranium or the strike itself was just not nearly as effective as they wanted us to believe.
But as I said, we're going to start again today with the war in Iran since it is the main topic of conversation.
Trump's attack may instead spur Iran to speedrun a nuclear weapon it wasn't building previously.
That's right.
Netanyahu has been lying for 30 years, and Donald Trump just agreed with him, sided with him, took his side on this, as we always do.
Gina Haspel, of course, lying us into the war in Iraq, and Trump made her the CIA head.
Now, other countries have seen this.
America and Israel are known liars when it comes to things like this.
Compliance with our agenda, with what we say, is no guarantee of safety because they'll just make something up.
They'll lie.
They will come up with something like WMDs or babies and incubators.
And so they have no reason to try to treat with us fairly.
They have no reason to even come to the table, really, because they know that even if they comply with what we want, we can just lie our way into another conflict.
We can say we found evidence of weapons of mass destruction and invade anyway.
We've done it before.
We'll probably do it again.
Sad to see.
KWD 68, no nuclear signature at the bomb site.
Trucks in activity before the bombing.
They made a fool of Trump.
Well, he does that beautifully and ugly himself.
Best ever.
Golden fool.
That's right.
There was never a better fool than Donald Trump.
He truly is a one of a kind.
U.S. officials have trumpeted that the recent strikes obliterated Iran's nuclear enrichment sites, but satellite images have cast doubt on that claim.
In any case, Trump's bombing campaign will most likely spur the country to abandon the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty and kickstart a program to rapidly develop nuclear arms as a deterrent.
Deterrence, even if that program wasn't in gear previously, a grimly ironic outcome of strikes meant to prevent exactly that.
The Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty is not able to protect us, Iran's Foreign Minister Abbas Arachi said at a Turkey conference in the wake of the strikes.
There could even be international ramifications if other countries see what Iran is going through as well and come to believe that a nuclear weapon would safeguard them against outside attempts at regime change.
In any case, Iranian officials said they had evacuated the sites, Fordau, Esfahan, and Natans.
They were bombed by America, pointing to the possibility that parts of the nuclear program have survived and have been moved to a secret location.
The International Atomic Energy Agency, IAEA, a United Nations body, is clamoring for peace, diplomacy, and access to sites in order to assess damages and account for any stockpiles of uranium that could be used for nuclear weapons.
But events have rapidly barreled Ford so fast that a visit from a bunch of United Nations eggheads seems pretty quaint at the moment.
On Monday afternoon, Iran launched missiles at the Al Udaid Air Base in Qatar, the largest American military base in the Middle East.
Through all the missile, though all the missiles were intercepted, heading off a worse crisis.
The bombing salvo comes on the heels of an Israeli attack on an Iranian government prison, among other facilities.
I call on all parties to exercise the utmost restraint, deescalate, turn to the negotiating table, French President Emmanuel Macron posted on X. He must have done that between getting slapped around by his wife.
It's nice to know that she gives him some time so he can tweet his little thoughts.
The spiral of chaos must end.
Yes.
Well, it's rare for me to agree with Emmanuel Macron on things, but he seems to be right on that.
At least he's calling for peace.
Shocking just how unpopular this is that even people like David Hogg and Emmanuel Macron are saying reasonable things compared to Trump.
As I said before, the ultra-rare, never-before-seen, double-sided, holographic David Hogg W, never before seen on this planet.
Now, of course, we had Donald Trump becoming irate over Iran and Israel.
He dropped the F bomb.
So there's multiple types of bombs being dropped here.
He said they don't know what the F they're doing.
Furious Trump slams Israel as fragile ceasefire crumbles.
He's making...
They get to do whatever they want, and he is left to pick up the pieces.
We've got a comment from our dad here.
He says, it's a pageant.
That's right.
It's a pageant.
It's all a pageant.
The tail is wagging the dog, folks.
We are the dog.
Israel is that tail, and we are left to wonder how it keeps happening.
They don't know what the F they're doing.
Furious Trump slams Israel as fragile ceasefire crumbles.
President Donald Trump unleashed a fiery statement to the press just moments before boarding Marine One.
Trump declared we basically have two countries that have been fighting so long and so hard that they don't know what the F they're doing.
You understand that?
The President is extremely frustrated and downright angry with Israel.
And Iran, upon news of the ceasefire not holding, he stopped to speak to us just now and said he's not happy with Israel nor Iran.
Well, if you'll remember correctly, he was acting like he wasn't very happy with Israel before all this, and then they claimed that it was to help lull Iran into a false sense of security.
So who knows?
Maybe that's what they're doing again.
Maybe this, as Dad said, is all part of the pageant.
Maybe he's fine with Israel.
And he's just waiting for Iran to feel a bit more secure.
Oh, maybe Israel doesn't have the undying and unwavering support of the United States.
Perhaps they're at odds, which I don't think we are.
Then he told us neither country knows what the F they're doing.
The president then swiftly turned and walked toward Marine 1. Well, poor Donnie, left to pick up the pieces.
Israel and Iran violating the ceasefire.
Trump's fiery statement comes just hours after Israel accused Iran of a severe violation of the overnight ceasefire.
Israel's military said it had intercepted a missile launched by Iran, while Tehran denied the fresh attacks.
Well, we know Israel lies continually about this sort of thing.
I would not be surprised if they did not, if Iran did not violate the ceasefire.
And instead, Israel is just making things up.
I mean, we saw they're more than willing to assassinate people, murder them, engage in violent, vicious sneak attacks.
Israel has no qualms about behaving or engaging in war with any sort of integrity.
As the U.S. and Qatar brokered ceasefire deadline close in, Israel and Iran exchanged lethal blows overnight, with Israel hitting various targets in Iran, killing nine people in northern Iran and reportedly assassinating yet another nuclear scientist, while Iran killed at least five Israelis in a devastating hit on an apartment tower.
At eight minutes after midnight in Washington, President Trump and his truth social account used his truth social account to announce the ceasefire was in effect and to urge continued compliance.
Note that no broad peace deal has been made, only a suspension of hostilities that Trump seemingly hopes will prove long lasting.
After hours of silence, Israel on Tuesday morning confirmed it was a party to a ceasefire, with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's office saying Israel has achieved all of the objectives of Operation Rising Lion and much more.
Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Arachi confirmed Iran has no intention to continue our response to Israel's initiation of war, provided that the Israeli regime stops its legal aggression against the Iranian people.
Israel claimed Iran fired missiles after the deadline, an accusation Arachi refuted in an ex post.
Ex post facto.
The military operations of our powerful armed forces to punish the military operations of our powerful armed forces to punish Israel for its aggression continued until the very last minute.
4 a.m.
together with all Iranians, I thank our brave armed forces who remain ready to defend our dear country until their last drop of blood.
He responded to any attack by the enemy until the very last minute.
Well, they're admitting that they carried out hostilities right up until the very last minute, the last second possible.
But it does seem like Iran wants peace.
It seems like they understand that continuing this is a very, very bad move for them, that it only leads to the complete and utter destruction of their country by Israel and its foreign lapdog, the United States.
In Iran's last-minute act of retaliation, at least five people were killed and 26 injured in an enormous explosion that devastated a seven-story apartment building in the southern Israeli city of Beersheba.
Let's be clear, I'm not cheering on Iran.
I'm not excited that they're bombing apartment buildings.
I don't want to see Israel wiped off the map either.
I would like, again, a two-state solution when it comes to the Middle East.
I would like Israel to be able to coexist with the people and countries nearby.
I would prefer that.
However, I would also prefer that no matter what happens, the United States butts out.
That toll may rise as responders continue to sort through rubble and incinerated automobiles.
We emphasize again, do not enter the scene, said Israel's Fire and Rescue Authority.
The arrival of civilians endangers public safety and makes it difficult for forces to operate.
We've got there's quite a few tweets in this article that seem to provide videos and pictures of the impact and the damage done by these things.
Meanwhile, Trump continued his series of manic social media posts about the U.S. attack on Iran's nuclear facilities and the ensuing ceasefire, posting in a certain and very ironic way that perfect hit late in the evening brought Everyone together and the deal was made.
Christening the war with a name that depends fully on an enduring ceasefire, Trump earlier declared the conflict should be called the 12 Days War.
Bold of him to assume.
That's like, well, it won't be any longer than 12. We can call it here, folks.
Perhaps appropriately, that moniker harkens back to the 1967 Six-Day War, which contrary to Zionist mythology was also initiated by Israel.
The Six-Day War resulted in Israel's seizure of the West Bank, Gaza, Golan Heights, East Jerusalem, and the Sinai Peninsula.
Israel is routinely the one who initiates violence.
And they're very, very good at claiming it was the other guy, at figuring out ways to make themselves look the victim.
Infamously, it was also during the Six-Day War that Israel executed an hours-long broad daylight, multifaceted attack on the well-marked USS Liberty, killing 34 American service members and wounding 173.
That's right, the USS Liberty is one of the most obvious false flag attempts I have ever seen.
A Israeli fighter strafes it over and over when it was obviously marked as an American ship.
And it was an obvious attempt by them to say, oh, look, you were attacked by the other side.
Despite the fact that many people survived and were able to say, no, it was an Israeli fighter jet.
And as far as I'm aware, they've only ever admitted fault in the sense of, oh, it was an accident.
How was silly us?
How could this have happened?
I suppose we put a blind man up in that fighter jet.
He couldn't see the giant American flag.
It just wasn't very visible.
There's already grumbling about the nascent peace among right-wing Israelis and Israel's U.S.-based boosters.
While Netanyahu asked his cabinet ministers to refrain from commenting on the ceasefire, Hawkish Israel Betenu Party Chairman Avigdor Lieberman decried the absence of Iranian unconditional surrender.
Saying already at the beginning of the war, I warned that there is nothing more dangerous than having a wounded lion.
Similarly, Dan Eluz of Netanyahu's Likud party asked, has the enemy surrendered?
Or is it just a round we won on points?
Striking a different tone, opposition leader Yar Lapid said the Netanyahu government should now end its war in Gaza, saying it's time to finish there too, return the hostages, and the war.
Israel needs to start rebuilding.
Yes, Israel needs to start by not being a genocidal terroristic state.
That would be a good place to start.
It'd be a nice place to start rebuilding.
The United States Israel allies who thought they finally had their long-awaited full-fledged American war on Iran are not happy.
While they may still achieve their goal of leaving yet another Middle East society in ruin and despair in pursuit of Israeli regional supremacy, non-interventionists can at least enjoy the neocon's heartbreak for as long as it lasts.
Mark Levin does want a ceasefire, and he is saying that leaving the Iranian supreme leader alive instead of killing him is akin to leaving Hitler alive during his rule over Nazi Germany.
It's never enough for these people.
This is by at Anthony Kabasa on Twitter.
Mark Levin is a hateful little warmonger, a despicable worm of a human being, only capable of arguing to send your sons and daughters to die for Israel.
He would never go fight for the country he loves so dearly.
He would only send your children to do so.
He would pour out America's tax dollars, your money, to go and fund war in the Middle East.
He wouldn't spend his money.
Mark Levin is a warmonger.
He simply cares about making sure that Israel is allowed to do whatever it wants.
He is a despicable human being.
He is hateful and full of rage.
only one Only one country has attacked America and we do not attack back and that was Israel and that was with the USS Liberty.
That's right.
They get to attack us.
They get to kill so many members, so many sailors on that ship.
And we do nothing about it.
We just take it.
We accept it.
I wonder why.
They get to do whatever they want.
We're just left to pick up the pieces.
Irani, this is a quote from Syed Abbas Arachi, the Iranian minister.
He posted this on Twitter.
As Iran has repeatedly made clear, Israel launched war on Iran, not the other way around.
As of now, there is no agreement on any ceasefire or cessation of military operations.
However, provided that the Israeli regime stops its illegal aggression against the Iranian people, notably later than 4 a.m.
Tehran time, we have no intention to continue our response afterwards.
The final decision on the cessation of our military operations will be made later.
We're continually told that Israel is the good guy, that Israel is the only democracy in the Middle East, that they're the only ones that we can deal with.
And yet, they're the ones that are calling for complete and utter destruction, unconditional surrender.
You will submit.
And we get a very stately comment from Sayat Abbasarachi.
The unhinged Iranian, he's the one that we can't trust.
He's the one that we have to fear.
Not the people that launch sneak attacks, that engage in continual violence and murder of women and children.
For all of Iran's bluster and death to America, they have been extremely reasonable, far more so than America or certainly Israel would have been if the roles had been reversed.
Yes, if someone had done what Israel did to Iran to the United States, can you imagine the levels of devastation we would have unleashed upon their country?
We would have flattened them into the ground.
We would have ground them up into powder.
It would have been unbelievable what we would have done to them.
Well, this is very...
We need to find a way to de-escalate this, but it does not seem Israel is going to allow that.
Israel agrees to ceasefire with Iran after regime change operation fails.
Again, I don't believe that they have any interest in an actual ceasefire, but they do love sneak attacks.
They love to agree to these things and pretend that, oh, we'll have some talks, but, oh, you violated the ceasefire.
We know you did because we have no proof.
We're not going to share it with you.
But you did it, so that allows us to strike back.
Israel agrees to ceasefire with Iran after regime change operation fails.
Iran managed to not only survive Israel's decapitation strike, but reconstitute and rain down missiles across the Jewish state.
Footage posted to social media shows the moment of the Iranian ballistic missile strike on an apartment building in Beersheba this morning.
On the location where the Iranian missile directly struck a seven-story building in Beersheba.
This article has many pictures.
We'll pull that up in a minute.
Settlers crying in Beersheba as they film their destroyed home.
That said, this purported ceasefire will give Israel time to rearm with news-supplied bombs and interceptors.
That's right.
We're going to continue to ship them.
Arms and ammunition.
Israel agrees to ceasefire with Iran after a regime change operation fails.
It's likely just a matter of time before Israel gives it another try.
This is from CNN.
CNN, Iranian state media announces ceasefire deal imposed on the enemy.
Iranian state media announced Tuesdays a ceasefire has been imposed on the enemy after the country's military response to U.S. aggression.
Hours after Iran's retaliatory attacks against a U.S. base in Qatar, the Sefa Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps' successful missile operation response to U.S. aggression and the exemplary steadfastness and unity of our dear people in defending our land has imposed ceasefire on the enemy.
An anchor was state-run Iran National News Network Saturday Live broadcast.
The anchor did not give a time for when the ceasefire would take place.
U.S. President Donald Trump requested the ceasefire between Iran and Israel in a begging-like manner.
Shortly after Iran strikes toward the U.S. Al-Udi bass and guitar, the anchor said.
Last evening, only an hour after the successful missile attack by the SEPA, an Americans al-Udi bass and guitar, in a begging-like manner, a virgin Trump requested the initiation of a ceasefire in the imposed Zionist enemy war against our country, the anchor said.
A begging-like manner.
They don't seem to have very much respect for our leader, do they?
But the question is, why would they?
Why would they indeed?
We are going to take a quick break.
I'm going to grab a drink real fast.
My throat is very dry.
But before we do, we've got some comments.
Marky, Mark, NJ.
Thank you very much.
That is very kind of you.
Travis Ames, your father's Mark Levin impression.
He totally nails it.
Mark Levin.
Very angry.
Very angry.
KW68, Gaza.
Starvation continues.
He kill us.
What's a Gaza?
All I know is Iran is the bad guy now.
That's right.
Forget about Gaza.
Forget about Palestine.
That genocide is already set in stone.
It's going to keep happening.
So he might as well move on and think about the new one.
He kill us.
The Iron Dome is a fraud and the world's most expensive fireworks show.
We'll be right back, folks.
Stay with us.
PIANO PLAYS
Defending the American Dream, you're listening to the David Knight Show.
Thank you.
You're listening to the David Knight Show.
Welcome back, folks.
Thank you for still being with us.
We're going to continue with our coverage of what's going on in Iran, as that is the biggest news that is going on right now.
We've got some comments, though.
Marky Mark, again, thank you very much.
That is very kind, very generous.
Well, thank you.
I very much appreciate the kind words, Mark.
That is incredibly kind of you as well.
He kill us, the Iron Dome is a fraud in the world's most expensive fireworks show.
We read that.
Trucker Chris responds.
Israel doesn't think it's a fraud and they wanted peace when they ran out of missiles for it.
He Kill Us responds to that.
They've terrified their people with the Iron Dome for years.
The Israeli people honestly think that hundreds of missiles are bombarding them on a daily basis and have been for years.
Israel is not above terrorizing its own people.
They'll lie to us.
They'll lie to them.
They'll lie to anyone and everyone.

America gets a golden dome.
That's right.
We get the golden one.
It's big, it's beautiful, it's incredibly expensive and probably useless for the future of warfare.
The golden dome, it's just as ineffective as the iron dome, but a lot more expensive, as the name would imply.
Isn't that wonderful, folks?
Guard Goldsmith.
Good to see you, Guard.
I hope you're doing well.
I love how the Mark Levins out there keep claiming that engaging in immoral, unconstitutional regime change promotes the will of the people and democracy.
That's right.
You're going to get democracy whether you want it or not.
America is coming.
It's got the guns, it's got the bombs, and it's delivering democracy.
One bomb, one bullet, one dead woman or child at a time, I suppose.
Isn't that wonderful?
As I have continually stated, even if a country wants democracy, even if they want freedom, it's not on America's job list to go and provide it for them.
We have no expectation of sending our people to die so that a different country can experience freedom.
If they want freedom, they need to take it for themselves.
You cannot give someone freedom, but they have to want it.
If they do not want it, they will simply revert back to whatever system of government that most closely aligns with what they want.
It's one of those.
Do I think China would benefit from a more open and honest and fair system?
Yes.
But if the Chinese people don't really want it, if they don't really care for it, we have no business in going over there and imposing it upon them.
The Chinese people deserve whatever system that they want, whatever they see fit to tolerate, whatever works best for them.
Experts gauge success of bunker buster bombs dropped by U.S. on Iran nuclear sites.
Experts note that even if some materials were moved before attack, Iran's ability to sprint to a bomb has been significantly impaired.
Experts.
Who are these experts?
Where can we find them?
Where are they getting their information?
Are these the same type of experts that we trotted out during COVID-19 to say, oh, we need to lock down the country.
You gotta wear a mask.
After first they said, masks are useless.
Don't wear a mask.
Are these the type of experts we're talking about?
Because the U.S. seems to have a flood of experts that don't seem to know anything.
While President Donald Trump has asserted that the military's weekend strike against Iran completely and totally obliterated its nuclear weapon-making capabilities, there are still questions about whether the ground-penetrating bunker buster bombs used to attack Iran's key enrichment sites were enough to stop the rogue country from developing a nuclear bomb.
A report released last week by the Center for Strategic and International Studies, CSIS, explains that the special bunker buster bombs the U.S. used in Iran over the weekend that everyone is talking about, known as the GBU-57 Massive Ordnance Penetrators, or MOPs, might not be able to fully destroy the Iranian nuclear facility at Ford Al.
Fordow, which Trump said was gone, now following the strike is considered central to Iran's nuclear weapon-making capabilities.
Meanwhile, a satellite imagery expert relayed to Reuters that confirmation of below-ground destruction cannot be determined via pictures alone because the facility's hundreds of centrifuges are too deeply buried in order to make an accurate determination.
That's right, they don't know for sure they're just going to claim victory.
We're sure it's gone.
We destroyed it.
Well, actually, we can't be sure.
It's too deep.
I actually have a little bit of a rosier view on things, Andrea Strickler, Deputy Director at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies.
Ah, yes, as I've been saying.
Isn't it wonderful we're out there defending democracies?
Truly a beautiful thing.
Thank you, Andrea Stricker.
We cannot thank you enough for going out there and spilling your blood and your hard-earned treasure to defend democracy.
Except I imagine that all she does is lobby for us to do that.
Non-proliferation and biodefense program told Fox News Digital, I think that because of the massive damage and the shockwave that would have been sent by 12 massive ordnance penetrators at the Ford House site, that it would render its centrifuges damaged or inoperable.
Stricker noted that centrifuges are very delicate, and the kind of shock wave coming from the MOPS would at least put them out of commission.
She also said if any centrifuges did survive the blast, it would be likely that they would be inaccessible by Iranian authorities for several months.
Underground facilities present a difficult target, not only for destruction, but also in terms of follow-on battle damage assessment, added Wes Rumba, a fellow in the Missile Defense Project at CSIS.
The United States and Israel will likely need to invest additional intelligence resources to determine the true extent of the damage from the U.S. strikes and their long-term effect on Iranian nuclear infrastructure.
That's right, we're going to devote more time and energy to monitoring Iran and make sure that they're in compliance with our wishes.
Because you will bow to the U.S. and Israel.
You will do as we say.
In addition to Fordow, the U.S. used its MOPs and an Iranian enrichment facility called Natanz.
According to Stricker, at least 1,000 centrifuges are located at an above-ground enrichment plant and other labs capable of making uranium metal.
According to the International Atomic Energy Agency, IAEA, the above-ground labs had previously been damaged by Israeli airstrikes, destroying the plant's electrical infrastructure.
Meanwhile, satellite imagery following the U.S.'s decision to drop two MOPs on Natan shows two craters located where the site's underground enrichment facilities are reportedly located.
However, it is still not clear if the U.S. attacks completely destroyed the underground nuclear infrastructure.
Either way, Stryker noted, the significant damage to Iran's Natan's facility will create a bottleneck in the country's supply chain for weapons-grade uranium, which will significantly impact Iran's nuclear weapon-making capabilities.
That's right.
Put a bottleneck there.
First, they were sprinting, now there's a bottleneck.
Except we don't know.
We're continually told.
Oh, it's a giant strike.
It's a big strike.
The best strike.
Well, maybe not.
We don't know for certain.
Well, there's a bottleneck.
They can't seem to make up their mind on how effective the strike was.
Donald Trump team.
Comment from Dad.
Fox News and much of the other media are so excited about the Bunker Buster.
They sound like the General from Dr. Strangelove.
So excited about a B-52 flying overhead.
and That's right.
Fox News loves its war propaganda.
They love all the footage that comes out of it.
They love to stand up and salute the flag and watches the bombs fall down.
Strike set back Iran's nuclear program by only a few months, U.S. reports says.
Preliminary classified findings indicate that the attack sealed off the entrances to two facilities but did not collapse their underground buildings.
That's right.
We did all this.
We struck them.
We engaged in an illegal military action to simply set them back a few months.
A preliminary classified U.S. report says, American bombing of three nuclear sites in Iran set back the country's nuclear program by only a few months, according to officials familiar with the findings.
The strike sealed off the entrances to two of the facilities, but did not collapse underground buildings, the officials said the early findings concluded.
That's right.
It had the effect of putting a little bit of that caution tape in front of it that says, do not enter.
Before the attack, U.S. intelligence agencies had said that if Iran tried to rush to making a bomb, it would take about three months.
But of course, this is the line that has been parroted and fed to us over and over again by Benjamin Netanyahu for the past 30 years.
Iran has been two weeks to three months from building a nuclear bomb for 30 years.
Time seems to move differently in the Middle East.
It doesn't seem to follow a linear progression.
It just kind of moves around at Benjamin Netanyahu's behest and request.
Whatever he and the Mossad want is however far Iran seems to be from the bomb.
Isn't that funny?
It'll take about three months.
After the U.S. bombing run and days of attacks by Israeli Air Force, the report by the Defense Intelligence Agency estimated that the program had been delayed, but by less than six months.
Oh no, I suppose we'll just have to continue to bomb them.
We'll have to stretch out that time indefinitely.
You know, if we're only gaining about three months per every two bomb dropped, this will take forever.
We're going to have to hit them with so many bombs to stretch that timeline out.
Coming from Ted, it only costs about $240 million to set them back a couple weeks.
Well, I mean, that's a bargain.
$240 million?
How could we say no to that?
The report also said that much of Iran's stockpile of enriched uranium was moved before the strikes, which destroyed little of the nuclear material.
Iran may have moved some of that to secret locations.
Well, I imagine they would have.
I imagine they're not just going to put it right out in the open.
They're not going to mark it with a big old sign that says uranium here, please bomb.
Some Israeli officials said they also believed that the Iranian government had maintained small covert enrichment facilities so it could continue its nuclear program in the event of an attack on the larger facilities.
Other officials noted that the report found that the three nuclear sites, Fordo, Natans, and Isfahan, had suffered moderate to severe damage, with the facility at Natan's damaged the most.
It is not clear whether the Iranians will try to rebuild the programs.
I think it's pretty clear that they probably will.
They understand that giving in to the United States and Israel is no guarantee of safety.
Whether they are continuing to enrich the uranium or not, chances are the U.S. will find some way to pretend they are.
Or Israel will release a report from Assad that says, oh, they have a secret program going on where they're enriching it.
We know this is true, so we're going to have to invade.
Iran is part of what Israel wants to do away with.
They're not going to simply stop because Iran gives up on nuclear enrichment.
This is a tweet from Dad.
You can find him on Twitter at Libertytarian.
The look on this kid's face says cosplay.
From part-time grocery clerk to the counter-terrorism head, Trump is a joke.
A joke that we already knew what the punchline would be since we've seen his previous show.
This is about Thomas Fugate, the 22-year-old gardener and grocery clerk in charge of the counterterrorism.
This is who is in charge of our counter-terrorism operations now.
The expression is great.
Bond.
James Bond.
He looks completely out of his depth.
He looks like he's trying to emulate something he's seen on TV.
You know, we were all young once.
I don't hold that against him.
It's not his youth and inexperience.
It's the fact that he is now in charge of our counterterrorism and is simply LARPing.
As you said, James Bond.
What a time to be alive.
I mean, it really makes you wonder how this guy whose only experience is working at HEB grocery stores got into such a high position.
Maybe he was in loss prevention, you know?
Maybe he was tasked with shadowing people around the store and make sure they didn't steal, you know, pineapples and zucchinis and that kind of thing.
Perhaps he's the perfect man for the job.
Assistant to the regional manager.
Exactly.
Trump takes victory lap, but pitfalls remain.
This is by Anthony Zurcher.
Aboard Air Force One en route to the NATO summit in the Netherlands, Trump shared a personal text message from a somewhat unlikely source.
It was sent by NATO boss Mark Ruta, who praised the American president for what he had accomplished in using U.S. bombers to attack Iran's nuclear facilities.
Congratulations, and thank you for your decisive action in Iran, wrote Ruta in a message the president posted to his Truth Social account.
That was truly extraordinary, and something no one else dared to do.
I wonder why no one else dared to do it.
Could it be because it was immoral?
Could it be because it was wrong?
I have a comment from Dad.
Every country has to understand that nuclear weapons are the only way they can be protected against the US or Israel.
It's a nuclear arms race.
We have made sure that they understand the only thing that we respect is potential nuclear fallout.
A mutually assured destruction scenario is the only thing that will keep the United States at bay.
Otherwise, we have no reason not to mess with your country in any way we see fit.
We will put boots on the ground or we will use the CIA to destabilize your country.
We'll pump it full of money, full of odd, strange little color revolution tactics.
Ruta addressed that as well, telling Trump he was flying into another big success at the NATO summit, where member nations had agreed to Trump's demand to boost defense spending to 5% of their gross domestic product.
It will be your win, he concluded.
That's right.
Aren't you just wonderful, President Trump?
You're so incredible and amazing.
You bombed Iran, you did what no one else would do.
You wonderful, wonderful man.
The warm words and the President's eagerness to share them to the world illustrated just how much the diplomatic equation in the Middle East and among U.S. allies has changed for Trump.
Last week he left the G7 summit in Canada a day early as conflict raged between Israel and Iran, and it appeared increasingly likely the U.S. would join the fight.
Americans attacked Iran's nuclear facilities on Saturday night.
By Tuesday morning, the President departed Washington for another international trip.
This time with a fragile ceasefire established between the two warring parties.
Roots' text, which a NATO press officer confirmed to the BBC as authentic, dovetails with the accounts provided on and off record by White House officials.
Trump's military strike removed the threat of Iranian nuclear weapons.
His actions triggered the ceasefire and ended what he calls the 12-day war.
Oh, isn't that wonderful?
Donald Trump, the savior of the Middle East.
Just ignore the fact that he's going to, you know, bulldoze Gaza and put in a casino.
His involvement in his pressure, including an angry outburst directed at both sides on Tuesday morning, what the White House called an exceptionally firm and direct phone call with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
Oh, he got him on the phone and he was scolding him.
He was so firm and direct with him.
I'm sure he said many mean words, many important words that Benjamin Netanyahu will be forced to listen to.
That'll be forced to back down and do what he's told, right?
No, we know that the influence flows the other way here.
We understand that Israel is the one that really calls the shots in this relationship.
That they're the one, despite the fact that America, Donald Trump was talking about how, oh, I don't think they're going to strike.
We've got a good relationship.
They did it anyway.
Israel is the one that calls the shots.
Last week, America's allies were anxious.
Now it appears Trump is heading to Europe with the intention of basking in their praise.
That's right, he's going to go revel.
He's going to go sit there and absorb all the adoration that these sycophants can muster up.
The outlook, however, is more complicated than that.
While the administration touts that the U.S. bombing raid obliterated Iran's nuclear research facilities, U.S. military intelligence officials have told American media that the damage is not as severe as the White House has claimed.
The country's nuclear program has probably only been set back by months, according to a preliminary Pentagon intelligence assessment.
That's right.
$240 million for a couple months of setback.
Well, we're getting a deal on that.
I mean, obviously, Iran is a maniacal state.
Comment from Dudd, when you consider that Trump's parade was $45 million, it's a steal.
Of course, there is a loss of life, but I'm sure the government doesn't care about that.
Yeah, I mean, $240 million to stop total nuclear annihilation?
How could we say no?
It's our duty to keep bombing Iran into the dirt over and over again, isn't it?
We must continue to bomb them.
It is the only path forward.
Rubio spokeswoman sparks MAGA anger over U.S.-Israel comments.
That's right.
Secretary of State Marco Rubio's spokeswoman angered President Donald Trump's America Verse following by appearing to suggest the United States sits next to Israel in terms of being the best country in the world.
That's right.
We're both tied neck and neck, the two best countries in the world.
And isn't it wonderful that we just so happen to be such good friends?
We have the clip here.
Let's see.
She doesn't just say that America is as good as Israel.
She says it's the second best nation.
Go ahead and play that.
I can't seem to find it.
The pride of being able to be here and do work that facilitates making things better for people and in the greatest country on earth, next to Israel.
It's an honor to be able to make a difference and to be able to speak in this regard with an administration that I love so much and that I feel genuinely represented by.
It's a real honor.
Isn't that wonderful?
Next to Israel has to clarify that, has to make sure she gets that out.
She's another one of these Zionist sycophants.
State Department spokeswoman.
Who are all these bureaucrats and where do they come from?
How do they all end up like this?
Tammy Bruce made the quip during an appearance last month on the Israeli TV show I-24 News.
Her comments on May 8th passed unremarked at the time, but resurfaced online on Sunday when internet chatter was busy in the wake of America's show of support for Israel with an attack on Iran.
That's right.
The greatest countries on the planet.
That's us, the USA and Israel.
And if you have a problem with that, buddy, we're going to bomb you into the ground.
It'll be a preemptive strike.
It'll be a disgusting, infamous attack.
But we're still the greatest countries in the world.
Don't you forget about that.
Being great has nothing to do with being honorable, with following the just war principle.
It has everything to do with the size of your military and your willingness to kill civilians.
That's what being great is.
Maverick Pilgrim, thank you very much for the support.
That is very kind.
All of this nuclear threat is part of the big new story that began with World War I. War is now part of the politics, not a failure at politics.
Do what we say or there will be WWX.
Constant living threat.
That's right.
We're forever on the brink of a world war.
We're forever just on the cusp of it.
And if you don't do what they say, we're going to tumble over that cliff.
Bumbling homesteader, she can go live there then.
That's right.
If she loves Israel so much, you would think she might actually live there and engage in politics in their country.
But instead, she's over here in America, using the influence she has to forward Israel's agenda here.
Because that's the way it always goes.
They're always going to spill out our blood and treasure for them.
Just don't call it a war.
This is from reason.
The Trump administration toys with regime change at Iran.
Our own constitutional regime takes another hit.
Mystery Driver Jordan rides on the National Mall.
We're not at war with Iran.
We're merely bombing the country.
That's right.
We're merely bombing them.
It's not a war.
We're just dropping bombs on them.
It's just a silly little spat.
War is.
Go ahead and play the clip.
Nuclear program has been effectively destroyed.
Nuclear program has been destroyed.
Is the United States now at war with Iran?
No, Kristen, we're not at war with Iran.
We're at war with Iran's nuclear program.
And let me just say, Kristen, that we're incredibly grateful and proud of the American Air Force pilots who did an incredible job last night.
The operation was really extraordinary.
These guys flew from Missouri.
They didn't land a single time.
They dropped 30,000-pound bombs on a target the size of a washing machine.
That's right.
We're not at war with Iran.
It's simply war on part of their infrastructure.
Isn't that wonderful?
I was worried that we'd be at war with the whole country.
But simply being at war with their nuclear agency, that's not so bad.
Their nuclear program, that's not the worst.
I mean, you know, there are certainly worse things we could be at war with.
We aren't at war with the country.
We're at war with the specific locations that the bombs hit.
And hey, everyone there is already dead, so war is won.
Exactly.
If you are next to the bombs, you're fine.
We weren't aiming there.
And, you know, if they were to retaliate, perhaps Iran wouldn't be at war with us.
They would be at war with our power grid or our shipping avenues, our freight lines.
They would not be at war with the United States.
They would be at war with part of our commerce.
Update, Israel working for regime change.
Now, Trump wants regime change in Iran.
He changed his tune after Israel changed its tune as well.
Isn't that funny how that happens?
Huh.
Update, Israeli Minister of Heritage Amil Hai Elihu Eliyahu declared this morning they are working with the opposition in Iran for regime change.
Israel attacked Evan Prison, notorious spot for persecution and execution of resistance elements in country.
That's right.
We're once again working on regime change because that worked out so well for Iran in the past when we engaged in it in 1953 with Operation Ajax.
We took out Mossadig and put in the Shah of Iran, who was a brutally repressive and wicked leader.
Did what we wanted and was allowed to abuse and torment and torture his people.
We didn't care about that, just as long as he followed what we wanted and what Israel seemed to want.
It was no big deal.
Do whatever you want.
Following orders from Prime Minister Ninya and Defense Minister Katz, the IDF is striking regime and security targets in central Tehran, including the Basij, HQ, even prison, and the Israel Destruction Clock, IRGC, Internal Security, HQ Zemor, reported clash report.
That's the very scary clock, which is, you know, a prop that counts down to the destruction of Israel.
It's very, very spooky.
So glad they got rid of that.
Long live freedom, Israeli foreign minister confirms.
Even prison in Tehran was attacked by Israel.
That's right.
Long live freedom, says the man bombing and destroying a country.
President Trump just posted on his truth social account that regime change in Iran wouldn't be a bad idea.
If he intends to use American forces, this is how mission creeps starts.
That's right.
Regime change, that's not such a bad idea.
It's, you know, it's made up of two good words.
Regime, that's a fun word to say.
And, you know, change.
Everyone likes change.
You change your clothes, and that's nice.
So, regime change, it's just two nice words strung together.
Not that bad a deal at all.
We've got the well, we had it somewhere.
This regime change is different from the others because, of course, we've got a smart president now, according to Vance.
I've got to be able to see it.
Yes, exactly.
I was looking for the post from True Social, but I can't seem to locate it on the deck.
Oh, well.
Fox News was crowing for days about how this would be just one whoosh of a bunker buster and all be done.
Ridiculous propaganda.
We've seen them say this kind of thing over and over again.
Oh, you know, it's going to be a very quick mission.
It's surgical strike.
And then it's done.
And then we're entangled in the Middle East for another 20 years.
We're in there and it's leading to collateral damage over and over again.
Men, women, and children are being killed daily.
Our men are coming home broken, maimed.
We're coming home in a casket.
All for some very quick in-and-out surgical strikes.
Isn't that how it always seems to happen?
Oil spiked 4% to above $80 for Brent crude after the American airstrikes on Iran.
Soon it will be, soon it will be, we need American troops on the ground to remove the nuclear material.
And as you saw yesterday, Ted Cruz didn't know anything about what's going on with Iran.
Tucker Carlson rightly called him out on that.
In 2003, the Iraqi population was about 24 to 25 million.
The current Iranian population is around 90 million.
So we're going to be very, very rough with it and say close to four times the population size.
Iraq is about 169 kilometers squared.
Iran is 636 kilometers squared.
636,000, 169,000.
My apologies.
It is a much, much larger country.
We have been unable to fix Iraq.
We were capable of destroying it, but we weren't really capable of fixing it or holding it or doing anything meaningful with it.
It's a much, much smaller country, a dramatically smaller country.
If we become embroiled in a war in Iran, it will be a devastating war.
It will end up with many, many dead U.S. soldiers.
You know what Iran needs is a bunch of poppy fields.
Exactly.
Make cocaine, not nukes.
You're going to grow some heroin for us, aren't you, bud?
That's what you want to do.
Trump hints at regime change in Iran amid questions over damage from U.S. strikes on nuclear sites.
That's right.
Regime change, those aren't dirty words.
It's just a lot of fun.
It's fun for you and the boys.
Those concerns may continue to mount as both Mr. Trump and Israeli officials hint at hopes that military operations could result in the fall of Iran's theocratic rulers.
As Iran's top diplomat visits Russia looking for support from a key ally, Israel is also expanding its list of targets in Iran to hit sites linked directly to the ruling theocracy's grip on power.
The thing that I find funny is if these strikes are causing people to call for regime change, if they're like, all right, look, we've got to do what they say.
We've got to get these people out of power.
We've got to stop doing this, then it shows that they are too pragmatic to use the bomb.
If they're willing to make these kind of concessions, if they're willing to look at it and say, look, anything's worth it to stop this level of bombardment, this level of destruction, they are too pragmatic to use the bomb.
It is a contradiction in terms.
It's ridiculous when you look at it like that.
If they are pragmatic enough to bow to your will in this scenario, then they would not have used it in the first place, and as such, there was no need for the strike.
Not that the strike was morally justified.
The Office of Israel's Defense Minister said Monday that the military was attacking with unprecedented force regime targets and government repression entities in the heart of Iran.
It was the first time Israel has acknowledged striking targets linked to the Iranian regime's domestic authority rather than its military or nuclear assets.
Yeah, Israel doesn't like to acknowledge when they're doing the wrong thing.
Mr. Trump had right after the U.S. strike said they would be the extent of America's involvement in the conflict unless Iran launched retaliatory attacks against U.S. assets in the region.
But late on Sunday in a social media post, Mr. Trump stoked concern about a possible further escalation of the conflict.
If the current Iranian regime is unable to make Iran great again, why wouldn't there be regime change?
Mr. Trump said.
That's right.
If you're not going to do what we want, if you're not going to make Iran great again by our definition, not yours, we'll define what a great Iran looks like.
We'll tell you the standard, and then you'll apply it, or else we're going to force you to change.
We're going to make sure that it's a standard that complies with what Israel wants.
Asked about the President's remarks on Monday, White House Press, Secretary Caroline Levitt said, Mr. Trump was just simply raising a question that I think many people around the world are asking.
If the Iranian regime refuses to give up their nuclear program or engage in talks, we just took out their nuclear Program on Saturday night, as you all know.
But if they refuse to engage in diplomacy moving forward, why shouldn't the Iranian people rise up against this brutal terrorist regime?
That's right.
If you're not going to play ball and build your country the way we say, why don't we just engage in a little bit of color revolution here and there?
A little color revolution does the body good.
North American House, Hippo, claiming Iran's rewarded Nuke program was eliminated was like a boat rescuing the castaway from Gilgans Island in the first season.
How can the show possibly continue after that?
It's all over, folks.
The war is won.
Oh, wait.
Oh, darn.
We needed that war, didn't we?
Perhaps not.
Perhaps it isn't just over.
Another comment from North American Asippo.
It will take a week or two, but you'll find out that Gilgans dropped a coconut on the Professor's two-way radio.
That's right.
There's always another excuse.
There's another reason.
There's a plot contrivance to continue everything.
Isn't that the way it goes?
All right, folks.
We're going to take a quick break, and we'll be right back.
Stay with us.
Stay with us.
You're listening to The David Knight Show.
Hello, it's me, Volodymyr Zelensky.
I'm so tired of wearing these same t-shirts everywhere for years.
You'd think with all the billions I've skimmed off America, I could dress better.
And I could, if only David Knight would send me one of his beautiful gray MacGuffin hoodies or a new black t-shirt with the MacGuffin logo in blue.
But he told me to get lost.
Maybe one of you American suckers can buy me some at thedavidknightshow.com.
You should be able to buy me several hundred.
Those amazing sand-colored microphone hoodies are so beautiful.
I'd wear something other than green military cosplay to my various galas and social events.
if you want to save on shipping, just put it in the next package of bombs and missiles coming from the USA.
Amen.
Thank you.
you Thank you.
Welcome back, ladies and gentlemen.
Trump Jumpstart's MIGA movement.
Every time I say that, I'm worried I'm going to slip up.
Regime change would make Iran great again.
And isn't it wonderful that we've got such an intelligent president at the helm right now?
That's what makes a difference here.
It's not the immorality or the morality of the issue.
It's whether the person at the helm is a smarty pants.
And the second thing is, Kristen, I certainly empathize with Americans who are exhausted after 25 years of foreign entanglements in the Middle East.
I understand the concern, but the difference is that back then we had dumb presidents, and now we have a president who actually knows how to accomplish America's national security objectives.
So this is not going to be some long-drawn out thing.
We've got in.
We've done the job of setting their nuclear program back.
We're going to now work to permanently dismantle that nuclear program over the coming years.
And that is what the president has set out to do.
Simple.
That's right.
Isn't it wonderful?
He's got in.
He's got out.
He's a man alone, unencumbered by paperwork or the Constitution or, you know, what's right or what's wrong.
He's just a real smart cookie.
That's wonderful.
He's willing to make these Machiavellian calculations.
Trump jumpstarts MIGA movement.
Regime change would make Iran great again.
It's not politically correct to use the term regime change, but if the current Iranian regime is unable to make Iran great again, why wouldn't there be a regime change?
MIGA, Trump wrote on his social media platform, Truth Social.
U.S. President Donald Trump on Sunday said regime change in Iran would make Iran great again, a reference to his own campaign slogan, make America great again.
It's not politically correct.
Trump ordered the bombing of three major Iran nuclear facilities on Saturday.
The Iranian regime has threatened retaliation for the attack.
That's right.
But Trump's a smart individual.
It's wonderful to have such a smart man at the helm engaging in these unconstitutional actions.
It's so great to see him, you know, and know that he's out there intelligently subverting these other countries, blowing up their nuclear facilities.
Are you crazy?
Or just plain stupid?
Stupid is stupid does, Mr. Blue.
I guess.
That's right.
Stupid is as stupid does.
And it seems that Donald Trump might not be as intelligent as the people around him want to make him out to be.
Got a comment from Dad.
Isn't it interesting how the Ukraine-Russia war has disappeared?
That's right.
No more news about that right now.
We've got other things to focus on.
Our greatest ally is in danger.
We've got to focus on that.
They're the ones that get all the press time now.
The Kabuki Theater of Trump's ceasefire.
This is from the Daily Skeptic.
At 4 a.m.
Tehran time this morning, U.S. President Donald Trump took to True Social to declare what happened to be the conclusion, at least temporarily, of a spiraling and increasingly bizarre set of twists and turns in the Middle East conflict.
A ceasefire agreement between Israel and Iran.
In his usual performative bravado, President Trump announced that both parties had agreed to stop the escalation.
Ceasefire, however, fragile, follows a sequence Of decisions and statements so erratic and contradictory that they could have only emerged from the theater of American politics under Trump 2.0.
What began as a unilateral surprise Israeli strike against Iranian nuclear facilities on June 13th occurred during ongoing negotiations between Tehran and Washington over the Islamic Republic's nuclear program.
This calculated move by Tel Aviv blindsided not only the mullahs of Tehran, but ostensibly the White House itself, President Trump initially claiming ignorance of the Israeli operation later shifted his position multiple times, first expressing disapproval, then promising to wait two weeks only to unleash the full might of U.S. strategic air power within days.
According to Israeli officials, the goal was clear, decapitate Iran's nuclear ambitions through a swift and targeted campaign.
The offensive launched in the early hours of June 13th rapidly destroyed key Iranian military and scientific installations, assassinated top nuclear scientists, and left Tehran scrambling to respond.
What followed from Washington was vintage Trump, chaos cloaked in confidence.
After initially distracting, distancing himself from the Israeli action, Trump shocked allies and adversaries alike by authorizing a massive U.S. aerial bombardment of three Iranian nuclear sites.
Deploying B two bombers, armed with bunker busting munitions and submarine launched cruise missiles, the U.S. strike escalated the conflict with brutal firepower.
Though what remains of Iran's enrichment infrastructure and uranium stockpiles can only be guessed at.
Got comments here, nights of the storm.
If Franca nukes and wanted to destroy Israel, it would have been a parking lot 30 years ago.
That's right.
But no, Jason, you have to understand, Iran is permanently in a super position of being both two weeks from making the bomb and never possessing it.
They are Schrödinger's nuclear power.
They both have their nuclear capabilities completely destroyed while also being two weeks from it at any given time.
It's a truly unique geographical area.
The rules of time and space don't seem to apply there.
It's whatever Netanyahu says.
So look at 1980.
They always use the word regime to demonize a government they don't like, yes.
Any government that we have a problem with is a regime, not our wonderful, glorious democracy.
What followed from Washington was vintage Trump?
Chaos cloaked in confidence.
Unsurprisingly, on June 23rd, Iran's parliamentary National Security Committee endorsed a framework bill to suspend cooperation with the IAEA, including halting inspections, camera installations, and reporting unless Iran's nuclear sites are deemed secure.
This has yet to be approved by Parliament and the President.
The U.S. President's calculus appears to have been part public relations, part military doctrine, with an eye on November and growing discontent among his MAGA base, figures such as Tucker Carlson and Steve Bannon had already voiced concern that Trump had once again been played by Netanyahu into an entangling foreign war.
The President seems to have decided that a quick show of strength followed by a clean exit would be his best political lifeline by declaring that the U.S. strikes were a spectacular success that had obliterated Iran's nuclear sites.
This provides the U.S. President with an off-ramp to the conflict on a high note.
That's right, well, he's got to come in and do something, right?
He's got to strike them at least once.
America has no business being involved in this at all.
Iran's response was in a word theatrical.
A volley of six missiles was fired toward the large U.S. military base in Qatar, an act that may seem hostile on its face, but evidence quickly emerged that Tehran had given Doha advance notice, according to Bloomberg.
Iran's missile attack on a U.S. air base and Qatar was telegraphed all in advance, suggesting Tehran intended a symbolic show of force, while offering a way to de-escalate after U.S. airstrikes over the weekend.
Not a single missile struck a target.
This tit for tat performance provided Iran with performative retaliation while ensuring that the fallout with its Gulf Arab neighbor was contained.
Shield your eyes, war is peace.
That's right, war is peace.
You have to bomb the countries into submission so you can have peace.
You have to strike at them.
Following Trump's ceasefire announcement, the Iranian foreign minister Sayed Abbas Arahi said, As Iran has repeatedly made clear, Israel launched war on Iran, not the other way around.
Provided that the Israeli regime stops its illegal aggression against the Iranian people no later than 4 a.m.
Tehran time, we have no intention to continue our response afterwards.
Jittery oil markets took this as a signal that escalation was unlikely.
Brent and WTI crude prices plunged by more than 7%.
Within hours of the tepid Iranian response, the drops reflected traders' growing confidence that neither side sought to drag the region into a long war, at least for now.
Indeed, for Tehran, the stakes could not be higher.
Shuttering the Strait of Hormuz or selectively attacking tanker traffic threats floated by regime hardliners remains unlikely, given the enormous economic and diplomatic costs on its Gulf neighbors, on its own oil exports.
China, which imports over 40% of its oil from the Gulf states, has close diplomatic and economic relations with Iran, would certainly be concerned with any disruption of the oil flow out of the Strait of Hormuz.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, having claimed that this objectives were nearly met, had shown interest in winding down the conflict.
We won't pursue our actions beyond what is needed, he said.
Well, I'm sure they'll just continue to assassinate scientists, killing them and their family members, doing whatever they need to, whatever they feel they're justified in doing, which is anything and everything, up to murder.
We won't pursue our actions beyond what is needed.
Again, that is no consolidation.
That is nothing to be happy about when it's coming from Israel, who is willing to bomb women and children.
What is needed?
Assassination of their scientists and their family members.
He said of the weekend underscoring that Israel did not seek a war of attrition.
The less than impressive performance of Israel's iron dome air defense system and daily videos of buildings destroyed by direct hits from Iranian missiles in Tel Aviv, Beersheba, Haifa, and other cities over the past week increased the pressure on the Israeli Prime Minister to assure citizens already fatigued by the Gaza war.
Comment from Tunnel Lord one three seven Well, based on the statements from earlier, if the nuclear program was simply set back a few months, I guess we'll have another conflict Like this in a few months.
That's right.
We'll be back playing the same old games.
Israel's economy already strained by the ongoing conflict with Hamas and Gaza is buckling under wartime restrictions.
Airspace closures, shuttered schools, attacks on its major seaport at Haifa, and halted business operations.
A war of attrition would have favored Iran, already under heavy US and EU sanctions over Israel, the latter having an open trade oriented economy dependent on the free flow of goods, services, and finance.
For President Trump, this morning's ceasefire declaration, if it holds, serves as both a strategic win and a political reprieve.
Gone are the bellicose threats of fire and fury, he can once again remind his MAGA base and outspoken supporters such as Tucker Carlson and Steve Bannon that he is the one leader who ends wars rather than starts them.
Ceasefire achieved, Trump posted.
Let's keep it that way.
Well, you know, first, I guess, I suppose you have to actually fire something before you can cease firing.
Maybe that's what Trump didn't understand.
He was like, ceasefire, we haven't fired yet.
Oh crap, we need to fire.
Gotta fire first before I can cease firing.
Now we can ceasefire.
We fired.
I bombed you.
We can cease firing.
It's wonderful, isn't it?
Audi, MRR, good to see you, Audi.
I hope you're doing well.
Everyone is seeing Israel for the evil state that it is, and yet our government proceeds with the agenda anyway.
Well, if being revealed as an evil, satanic group of pedophiles doesn't cause us to do anything about our government, I don't see why it would affect our relationships with Israel.
So, good to see you, Audi.
But they're tied at the hip.
In an article published yesterday, XCI analyst Larry Johnson aptly noted that the entire sequence of fast-paced events resembles kabooki theater on steroids, a carefully choreographed pageant, with each actor playing their role to maintain internal legitimacy and geopolitical posture.
Israel strike had to be answered.
The U.S. had to project dominance, Iran had to save face, and Trump, ever the political showman, needed a victory that looked like peace, even if lasting peace may remain ephemeral.
The Israel-Iran conflict may be momentarily on ice, but the deeper game continues.
Nuclear ambitions, strategic deterrence, and energy geopolitics remain unresolved.
This ceasefire may hold or it may unravel within days, but for now, the world exhales.
And Donald Trump, ever the showman, gets to exit stage right, at least until the next act.
That's right.
This is about making sure that Donald Trump gets to look like a hero.
He gets to come in and say, we did it, boys.
We decapitated their nuclear program.
And now they're going to surrender.
It's all because of our might.
The American military does it again.
Isn't it wonderful?
HAL 9000, mostly peaceful bombing.
That's right.
We only bombed a small portion of Iran.
It was mostly peaceful.
How Trump's weakness betrayed America's interests in Iran In mid-february 1945, a dying Franklin Roosevelt on his way home from his final meetings with Stalin and Churchill at Yalta met with Saudi King Ibn Saad on the deck of the USS Quincy on the Great Bitter Lake in Egypt.
An account of the conversation from the office of the historian of the US State Department reads in part his Majesty called attention to the increasing threat to the existence of the Arabs and the crisis which has resulted from continued Jewish immigration and the purchase of land by the Jews.
His Majesty further stated that the Arabs would choose to die rather than yield their land to the Jews.
His Majesty stated that the hope of the Arabs is based upon the word of honor of the Allies and upon the well known love of justice of the United States, and upon the expectation that the United States will support them.
I don't think anyone would talk about the United States like that anymore.
Love of justice?
It was a different time.
The President replied that he wished to assure His Majesty that he would do nothing to assist the Jews against the Arabs and would make no move hostile to the Arab people.
Reminded His Majesty that it is impossible to prevent speeches and resolutions in Congress or in the press, which may be made on any subject.
His reassurance concerned his own future policy as chief executive of the United States government.
His Majesty thanked the President for his statement and mentioned the proposal to send an Arab mission to America and England to expound the case of the Arabs in Palestine.
The President stated that he thought this was a very good idea because he thought many people in America and England were misinformed.
What Saud was saying, in other words, was why should Arabs have to pay the price for Germany's crimes?
Yet even then the longest serving president in our history recognized that when it comes to politics of the Levant, the lobby rules.
In the 75 years, since its founding, Israel has repeatedly undermined the United States and has murdered numerous American civilians as well as 34 members of the crew of the USS Liberty.
Still more, Israel poses a unique, continuing, and dangerous counterintelligence threat.
It acts with impunity because Congress is bought and paid for by money funneled to it from its domestic lobby, APAC.
It treats U.S. presidents like doormats.
Bill Clinton famously asked after his meeting with Netanyahu in 1996, who the F does he think he is?
Who's the superpower here?
Good question.
Who's the superpower here?
Americans are increasingly asking themselves to guard Israel, at what point does it become enough?
We seem, as a people, unable to elect presidents or even more than a handful, if that of senators and congressmen are willing to place American interests before Israeli interests.
Joe Biden spent much of his last year in office doing his level best to make the United States complicit in its genocidal campaign against the Palestinians.
And on Saturday night, Donald J. Trump caved to the demands of the entitled, cynical, and entirely loathsome Benjamin Netanyahu and his powerful loyalists in America, including radio presenter Mark Levin, mogul Rupert Murdoch, and casino heiress Miriam Adelson to commit an act of war against Iran on false pretenses.
Indeed, there were no more nuclear devices under the mountain than there were WMDs in Iraq.
Reports are now surfacing that John Ratcliffe, the deeply unimpressive and wholly dishonest director of Central Intelligence, had in the manner of George Tennett, cooked the books.
In response to all this, Iranian state television issued a warning on Sunday morning.
Now, every American citizen or military personnel constitutes a legitimate target.
Let us speak plainly and without pretense.
This is a war of Israel's making, but it is a war that Donald Trump was too weak and too vainglorious to stop.
This is from anti-war.com by James Cardin.
It's a very good article and is right.
Donald Trump was too weak and too vainglorious to stop it.
Looking for monsters to destroy for Israel's benefit.
We got some comments.
Angry Tiger's Den.
This screams soap opera.
Script, all of a sudden opposing forces are announcing to each other they are going to attack.
I'm no war general, but what kind of strategy is this?
I don't remember that uh I don't remember that.
That you're supposed to, of course, announce where and when you're going to attack and what they can do to stop it.
Stealth Patriot, we failed to bring democracy or peace to any of the Middle Eastern nations that we've bombed.
So the next logical thing is to keep bombing.
That's right.
If at first you don't succeed, try, try again.
Mama didn't raise no quitter.
So we're not going to leave the Middle East until it's all completely rubble or they've accepted democracy.
Though, of course, you know, it's a lot easier to turn something into rubble with bombs than it is to give them some semblance of freedom.
So we'll just see what happens, I suppose.
So Goy, what do they think Iran is going to do?
Get one bomb and use it and risk getting hit with 50?
The entire story is irrational.
Yeah, it's never held.
It's never been rational or made any sense to me.
They're going to get one and then they're going to get absolutely annihilated.
They're going to be removed from the face of the earth.
That's the story that they're going with and they're going to stick to it.
KWD68.
Gotta love a ceasefire that lets one side attack for a bonus round.
That's right.
You cease firing and we'll, you know, we'll maybe cease firing, but we also may not cease firing.
But if you respond to us not respecting the ceasefire, then you've disrespected the ceasefire and so that gives us justification to ignore the ceasefire that we were already ignoring.
It's a very interesting type of negotiation that Israel has engaged in.
Very good for them, I suppose.
Shaky Israel-Iran ceasefire appears to hold after Trump tells Israel to stop the bombing.
Fragile ceasefire between Israel and Iran appears to be holding after it got off to a shaky start, and President Trump publicly urged Israel to stop the bombing.
Trump announced the truce on Wednesday night, which was followed by heavy Israeli attacks on Tehran.
Iran then hit back with several waves of ballistic missiles.
That's right.
He announces the truce on Wednesday.
Israel strikes again.
Iran violated it, but Israel violated it too, Trump told reporters.
Well, it should be said that Israel violated it, and Iran responded to their attack.
That's how you would correctly phrase that if you didn't want to make it seem as though Iran was the aggressor when Israel was.
Trump told reporters on the White House salon before boarding Marine One to go to the NATO summit in The Hague, Israel, as soon as you made the deal, they came out and dropped a load of bombs, the likes of which I've never seen before.
The biggest load that we've ever seen.
I'm not happy with Israel.
Well, I don't think being happy with Israel means anything when they have their hands so deeply embedded in our government.
When Trump announced a ceasefire, he said it would take effect in 12 hours.
When I say, okay, now you have 12 hours, you don't go out in the first hour and drop everything you have on them.
So I'm not happy with them.
I'm not happy with Iran either, but I'm really unhappy if Israel is going out this morning because of one rocket, Trump said.
According to a report from Axios, Iran fired three missiles that were either intercepted or landed in open areas, and Israel sent fighter jets to bomb Iran about the same time Trump was speaking to reporters.
After his comments, Trump wrote on True Social Israel, do not drop those bombs.
If you do it, it is a major violation.
Major, bring your pilots home now.
Donald J. Trump, President of the United States.
Accident's reports said that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu then spoke to Trump, said he could cancel the airstrikes, but that Israel significantly scaled back the planned attack and targeted only one radar system in a follow-up post.
Well, you know, we're scaling back our violation of the ceasefire.
It's not going to be a major violation.
It'll be a small, minor violation.
Isn't that wonderful?
You'll barely even notice that we bombed them and killed a bunch of people.
It'll be a minor bombing.
A very tiny bomb.
Where is Iran's uranium?
Top secret.
Leaked U.S. Intel says core nuclear components intact.
KWD68 has a comment here.
You must start the war to end the war.
That's right.
You can't end a war that hasn't been started yet.
How can you look like a big old hero if you don't have someone to save?
You've got to have chaos to bring order to it.
Where's Iran's uranium?
Top secret leaked U.S. Intel says core nuclear components intact.
Iranians aren't dumb and likely took drastic steps to further protect, conceal, or likely move these enriched stockpiles.
Some 400 kilograms, according to most reports, as a wave after wave of Israeli warplanes hit Iran significantly before the U.S. sent its bombers this past weekend.
It appears core components are still intact, though Iran has long maintained it is merely for peaceful nuclear energy development.
New York Times is currently reporting that the U.S. operation merely set Iran's nuclear program back by a few months.
And further, big media allegations based on U.S. social and intel assessment that the Iranians moved their enriched uranium.
U.S. bombs didn't collapse underground Iranian nuke buildings, says New York Times.
According to well-placed sources who have seen the classified DIA assessment of the bomb damage assessment, BDA, after the U.S. military strikes last weekend, DIA assesses that the Iran nuclear program could be back online in a matter of months, from one to two months on the low end.
Early emerging intelligence also points to the stockpile having not been destroyed, which contradicts the current victory lap claims being made by President Trump and some of his top officials in a huge development blows fresh CNN reporting based on leaked assessment by the Defense Intelligence Agency.
The assessment, which has not been previously reported, was produced by the Defense Intelligence Agency, the Pentagon's Intelligence Arm.
It is based on a battle damage assessment conducted by U.S. Central Command, the aftermath of the U.S. strikes, one of the sources said.
The analysis of the damage to the sites and the impact of the strikes on Iran's nuclear ambitions is ongoing.
It can change as more intelligence becomes available.
But the early findings are at odds with President Donald Trump's repeated claims that the strikes completely and totally obliterated Iran's nuclear enrichment facilities.
They're gone.
I obliterated them.
We're going to have peace.
We're going to have peace.
Now that we bombed them, we're going to cease firing.
One unnamed defense official quoted in the report says, centrifuges are largely intact.
And more based on the apparently top secret leaked DIA Intel report.
And you'll, of course, remember, earlier in the show, we were covering some other person saying, well, centrifuges are incredibly delicate, and they're most likely gone.
But now we're being told, even those are likely still intact.
So these delicate pieces of machinery are still apparently ready for more work.
Couldn't even destroy a delicate piece of machinery, it seems.
Not as effective as Donald Trump wants you to believe, is it?
So the DIA assessment is that the U.S. set them back maybe a few months, TOPS, this person added.
White House acknowledged the existence of the assessment, but said they disagreed with it.
CNN reports that an initial U.S. intelligence assessment says that the U.S. didn't destroy Iran's nuclear facilities.
Set the program back only by a few months.
The White House acknowledged the assessment was real, but said it disagrees with it, and that it was leaked by a loser.
Loser.
So this appears yet another case of the White House disagreeing with its own intelligence community in an ongoing awkward situation which has Iraq war vibes.
However, without the doubt, without doubt, the IC is still working on an overall consensus, based likely on several different Intel threads and across agencies.
Doesn't seem to be any real consensus in what's going on.
Can't seem to get their story straight.
Did they destroy everything?
Was it completely obliterated?
Or are the centrifuges still intact?
Hard to say.
Hard to say, indeed.
Well, I think we'll probably come back to Iran, but we've been covering that for a couple of days now.
We're going to take a quick break, and when we come back, we'll take a look at what's going on with the war on Christians.
So stay with us.
We'll be right back.
But unlike most revolutions, where the people rise against a real economic oppression, in our case here in Boston, we are fighting for purely an abstract principle.
It is, however, not nearly so abstract as the young gentleman supposes.
The issue involved here is one of monopoly.
Yay!
Today, the British government will monopolize the sale of tea in our country.
Tomorrow it will be something else.
All right.
All right.
Liberty, it's your move.
You're listening to The David Knight Show.
The David Knight Show.
Liberty, it's your move.
And now, the David Knight Show.
Welcome back, folks.
We've got a lot of great comments here.
Audi, MRR, don't forget the number of standing ovations that Netanyahu received in our own halls of Congress.
That's right.
He comes over and they clap like trained seals.
They just put their hands together.
And whatever he says, it's like, yes, Benjamin.
Anything you say, Benjamin.
Anything for you, Benjamin.
Brian Zed McCartney.
Toronto Dump had to double the six-day war.
Bigger, better, batter.
That's right.
The six-day war?
No, no.
It's 12 days.
T-W, 97401.
If their nuclear material had been hit, some of the U-235 would have been aerosolized and would be detected around the world.
Seems like maybe they didn't hit anything then, huh?
KWD68.
Remember, Trump isn't dumb.
Like former presidents, he's a super genius.
Wild E. Trumpy.
That's right.
Weile E. Trumpy.
Super genius.
The second thing is, Kristen, I certainly empathize with Americans who are exhausted after 25 years of foreign entanglements in the Middle East.
I understand the concern, but the difference is that back then-I feel your pain.
And now we have a president who actually knows how to accomplish America's national security objectives.
So this is not- It's so wonderful having such an intelligent, stable genius at the helm, isn't it?
So stable, so genius.
No one could be more stable or more genius.
We've got some comments about the golden dome that I didn't get to earlier, but comments from Do Not Obey, Golden Safety Blankets.
I'm safe with a little nerd emoji.
That's right.
Put your golden safety blanket over top of you.
Pull it right over your head, and you'll just be perfectly safe.
It won't be a gigantic waste of taxpayer money, designed to fight a type of war that we probably won't engage in any longer.
It won't do anything to stop these drones that will likely target infrastructure.
But, you know, it'll cost a lot.
I'm sure Raytheon and Lockheed Martin, whoever is going to get the contract, will be more than happy to supply this boondoggle that will generate tons of revenue for them.
And then once it doesn't work, they'll have to go, oh, I'm sorry, guys, but if you give us some more money, we can fix it.
KWD68 need to build some golden coal-powered plants.
That's right.
Maybe that's how we get Donald Trump to sign on to anything.
We sell him.
We're going to paint it gold, Donnie.
You don't understand.
No, no, those windmills, they're cringe.
They're lame and gay.
What we want is a big gold coal plant.
That's right.
We're going to paint it gold.
It's going to be the most beautiful coal plant in the world, Donnie.
We're going to paint it gold, and you're going to love it.
I'm Marty.
The Golden Dome is in Donald's imagination on his head.
That's right.
The only golden dome is Donald Trump's.
Shelly, A. The dome is not for incoming missiles.
They hit our guts.
It is to make sure you are incapable of revolting ever.
All the weapons of war that are utilized in other countries will eventually be brought back and used against the American people here.
That's just how it goes.
As I said, we're going to take a look at what's going on with some insanity here in the United States.
That's enough about war insanity for now.
We're going to look at some gender insanity.
Begala.
California is crazy to allow schools to not tell parents about children transitioning, but Tennessee's ban on children transitioning is wrong.
That's right.
He's a moderate.
He's like, well, you know, you should tell parents.
But also, sure, if your kid wants to mutilate themselves, go for it.
Is that what passes for a moderate these days?
I'm all for castrating children, just so long as we inform the parents that it's going on.
Exactly.
You've got to inform the parents before you mutilate a child.
That's just common sense.
This is the type of common sense policy we need to get back to in the United States.
This is what we've lost by letting ideologues run the party.
A nice, good middle ground we can all be happy with.
On Friday's broadcast of HBO's real-time CNN political contributor and democratic strategist Paul Begal.
Yes, this is the Democratic strategist, by the way.
This is his strategy.
We're going to retake some middle ground by making sure that parents are informed.
But yeah, mutilate the children.
Great strategy, Paul.
Real big fan of it.
Said that while he disagrees with bans on gender transitions for children, it's crazy for states like California to keep schools from telling parents about their children transitioning.
Representative Wesley Hunt, Republican, Texas.
This is one of the reasons why the Democrats are losing on an issue like this.
Because again, you can't definitively tell.
I have a six, a four, and a two-year-old.
My six and four-year-old think they're Anna and Elsa.
My little boy thinks he's Lightning McQueen.
Ka-chow, buddy.
That's great.
By the time you're 18 years old, if you want to change your body, you can live and do whatever you want.
As long as you want to pay for it.
I fought for the right for you to be able to do that.
When we are talking about children and underdeveloped human beings and allowing them to make decisions that are going to impact the rest of their life, we must protect them.
That's right.
Children don't have developed brains.
They are extremely susceptible to propaganda.
They can be influenced by outside forces and they don't fully understand what's going on with them.
They can be told different things.
It is ridiculous to ever believe that we should let them do this to themselves.
This is why children have parents, people that love them and can look out for their best interests while they are still developing.
Big Ala responded, we're people of faith.
The bill is not.
We believe that God gives children to parents, not politicians in Nashville.
The Tennessee legislature doesn't give a rip snort about children.
Or they would address the chief cause of childhood death in Tennessee, which is guns.
I want to see some statistics on that, buddy.
I want to know where you're getting that from.
Why should the politicians decide what parents do?
Host Bill Maher responded that those are totally separate issues, adding, and by the way, the issue is quite the reverse.
Like out here in California and in New Jersey, it's the schools who are not allowed to even tell the parents.
Bigala responded, that's crazy.
I'm consistent.
Parents should decide this, not schools and not politicians.
I think that it is absolutely reasonable for the state to come in in this instance and say, no, you're not going to mutilate children.
I don't think you have the right to mutilate children.
I don't think that's covered under the Constitution.
I think it is absolutely fine in this instance for the government to come in and say, no, I don't think so, brother.
I don't think that you should do that.
I think children need to be protected by any means necessary.
And if there is some crazy parent somewhere that is like, oh, my son thinks he's a girl, and so we're going to start putting him on puberty blockers.
I think someone needs to come in and stop them.
Because that is child abuse.
That is evil.
That is despicable.
It's disgusting.
North American house hippo.
When I was a boy in high school, we're going back nearly 40 years here, getting my ear pierced would have resulted in a harsh intervention from my schoolmates.
Good old days.
That's right.
Times have changed.
Times have certainly changed.
It was even when we were growing up, that kind of thing would have gotten you made fun of and bullied a little bit.
We went to church with this one kid one time and he showed up wearing some sparkly rainbow suspenders and rightfully so, we all just kind of looked at it and were like, that's gay.
That's really gay.
Why are you wearing those?
It was a different time.
I don't think you could get away with that.
Definitely not in school, but even in many churches, you'd probably have a severe talking to.
Assyrian girl, children in the government public cesspool systems are indoctrinated approximately six hours a day.
How many quality hours do their parents have with them to undo the damage?
Yeah, this is something that I've thought about for many years.
It's just, you know, the parents working full-time.
Likely both of them are.
The child is in school for six hours.
They've got homework when they've got home.
They've probably got some kind of extracurricular activities.
They've probably got interests of their own that they're going to engage when they're at home.
The parents have to shower.
The children have to shower.
There's all kinds of things that you have to do in a day.
How much time do you actually get to spend with your children?
How much time do you have to undo the damage?
It's not worth it.
It is not worth it to send them to these government, as you said, cesspools out of the convenience.
Like, oh, well, you know, they'll watch them and allegedly get some kind of education from them there, right?
But we see the type of education that they end up getting.
Mayor added, I think they're not protecting the children from people coming in and taking advantage.
I think of young folks who don't know what's going on.
I didn't know what was going on when I was eight years old.
I wasn't happy when I was a teenager.
Someone offered this as a solution.
I might go for it.
They have done studies since then.
That's why America is an outlier country with this.
All the other countries pulled back on this because they said we don't know, and sometimes they're just gay, and sometimes they're just confused, and sometimes they're just depressed.
Once you start taking out body parts, you can't reverse it.
Bill Maher, voice of reason somehow Shelly Shelley A The teachers are screwballs, don't send your children into that hellhole.
That's right.
We've seen the type of people that become public school teachers.
As a general rule, they're extreme ideologues.
They're there to indoctrinate your children.
They flat out admit it.
They love putting the trans flag, the LGBT flag up, and bragging about how this is the only flag you'll salute in my classroom.
It's truly despicable.
They join it not because they want to help children, but because they want to impose their will upon them, to impose their beliefs, to indoctrinate them.
It's utterly disgusting.
I have zero respect for the public school system.
It was always funny to me when I was growing up.
A lot of Pokemon fever was at its height.
And then it reached a tipping point where people in the church began to worry, like, oh, this is pushing evolution.
This is teaching evolution.
We can't have our kids enjoying Pokemon.
We can't have them playing Pokemon.
But they would send their kids to public schools for six hours a day, as you said, where they were taught evolution.
We couldn't have them playing a silly little video game, but we can have you go to public schools where they're going to teach you evolution as fact, where they're going to undermine everything that the Bible stands for over and over again.
It's always funny to me that so many Christians will look at something like Harry Potter and go, well, this has anti-Christian themes.
And they're right.
It's not wrong to point that out.
But then they'll send them into a public school, which is far more damaging, which is far more dangerous without the slightest bit of hesitation.
It's like, oh, well, you know, what are you going to do?
They'll strain at the Pokemon, at the Pikachu, and completely bypass their thought process when it comes to public school, which will indoctrinate them more thoroughly than a video game ever could.
Bill Maher.
Allowing states to ban transitioning minors helps get Dems to something normal people can vote for.
On Friday's broadcast of HBO's Real Time, host Bill Maher stated that the Supreme Court upholding Tennessee's ban on gender transitions for minors is a great first step to getting the Democratic Party back to something that people can respect and normal people can vote for.
That's right.
Bill Maher understands that the Democrat Party has become so insane on these issues that a lot of people are looking at it and going, oh man, I can't vote for that.
I can't.
It's too crazy.
That's part of the reason why Donald Trump has won.
Because people will look at this kind of insanity on the left and go, well, whatever the right is offering, it's got to be better.
It at least doesn't come with this.
Marr stated, the Supreme Court ruled the other day about transgender.
Okay.
There was an issue in Tennessee.
Now the states can restrict minors from transitioning.
They were just saying the states have the right to regulate this.
Now I think a lot of people, again, I'm critical when I think my side goes too far, they go too far often and they went too far on this.
For a long time, gender affirming, all this, gender dysphoria, all these terms they used to try just to say that biological sex isn't a real thing.
It's all a social construct.
This was always nonsense.
Not there isn't such a real thing as trans people.
There are, but it's rare and they made it unrare.
I think over 100 clinics opened in the last 10 or 20 years because this became a thing.
That's right.
We saw once it became popular, once it became the new in thing in the LGBT, it exploded.
They were everywhere.
Suddenly, everyone had a trans kid.
It seemed like, oh, well, my eight-year-old son is trans.
My teenage boy, my teenage girl is trans.
It exploded.
You wouldn't see that if this was just a naturally occurring phenomenon.
He continued, well, now this blue states, by the way, will not be affected.
They are just saying states have the right to regulate this.
And I think it's a Great first step getting the Democratic Party back to something that people can respect and normal people can vote for.
We'll see.
I think the Democrat Party has long since embraced their role on the lunatic fringe of the left and are only going to move further left.
Lawmakers target New Jersey homeschoolers is by Alex Newman of The New American.
Under the guise of having the government provide oversight of homeschooling families, far-left Democrat lawmakers in New Jersey are working with powerful forces to crack down on home education.
Parental rights and educational liberty, if the effort is not stopped, homeschoolers in the garden state will soon have Big Brother watching them, literally.
The most controversial legislation introduced this month requires homeschool families, both children and parents, to meet annually with a government bureaucrat.
It turns a presumption of innocence on its head with homeschoolers forced to prove to the government that everything is okay as part of a wellness check.
Wonder what that might entail.
A bill known as Senate Bill SB 4589 is shortened to the point.
A child in a home education program and the child's parents or guardian shall meet annually with a person from the resident school district who has been designated by the superintendent of the school district.
The designated person shall be a school counselor, school nurse, or school social worker employed by the school district.
The purpose of the meeting shall be for the parent or guardian to have an opportunity to request support from the school district for the home education program, or the person designated by the superintendent to conduct a general health and wellness check of the child.
What kind of support a homeschooling parent might be expected to request from the government is not made clear in the bill.
But in the immortal words of President Ronald Reagan, the nine most terrifying words in the English language are, I'm from the government, and I'm here to help.
The other far more ominous purpose of the mandatory annual meeting is crystal clear.
In short, if the bill is passed, a government bureaucrat will be in charge of assessing whether parents are doing an acceptable job of parenting, caring for, and educating their homeschooled children.
That's right, the government's going to come in and decide if they're up to standard, if they're being given the appropriate education.
We know the type of things they actually care about when it comes to education.
It's not reading, writing, and arithmetic.
So in other words, this is CPS mandated for all homeschooling from a wellness check from the people that want the genital mutilation with no information for the parents.
The criteria for determining what is acceptable, of course, will be in the hands of the very bureaucrats and policymakers who are knowingly and willingly sexualizing and indoctrinating children in public schools.
These are the same bureaucrats teaching children to believe in absurdities, like the idea that they have been born in the wrong body.
And hormone therapy and surgical mutilation of genitals may be the solution.
The bill currently has three Democrat co-sponsors, Senator John Berzicelli, Senator Paul Moriarty, and Senator Benji Wimberly.
And I have did a little bit of research on Berzicelli, Moriarty, and Wimberly.
Berzicelli is very pro-abortion, introduced legislation for color-coding states based on access to abortion.
So it'd be like a travel advisory if you leave New Jersey.
You could look at it and go, oh, what if I'm traveling and need an on-the-spot abortion?
I have to be careful where I travel.
Supports New Jersey codifying absolute rights to abortion.
Advocates allowing people to change gender on birth certificates and such.
That's the first sponsor.
So you can imagine what he might imagine a wellness check should entail.
Moriarty supported a 2021 bill requiring schools to include instruction on sexual orientation and gender identity, starting in kindergarten.
Mandating districts to teach lessons affirming LGBTQ relationships and identities.
Now, Wimberly, the third co-sponsor, also co-sponsored a bill which sought to force New Jersey Commissioners of Education to develop guidelines for accommodating trans students in public schools, restrooms, public schools, restroom access, nameslash prone to recognition, anti-discrimination protection.
We know what they define as anti-discrimination protection is worship.
You will bow down and you will do whatever these people say.
These are the people that are co-sponsoring this bill.
So you know the type of things that they'll want to put in there.
Make sure that your child is being taught that they can be a different sex than they were born.
That if you aren't respecting that, you're the problem.
It's not that they're suffering from some kind of mental illness.
It's that you need to respect them.
And if you don't, the government's going to come in and hammer you for it.
Critics, including the Homeschool Legal Defense Association, which represents hundreds of thousands of homeschooling families nationwide, are already fighting back.
This bill can only encourage discrimination, prejudice, and suspicion towards parents merely because they exercise their constitutional right to homeschool their children, warned Scott Woodruff, HSLDA Director of Legal and Legislative Advocacy.
The details of the bill, he continued, are astonishingly problematic.
As well, for example, the legislation does not define what a general health and wellness check is.
The government loves to leave these kinds of things vague.
Leave it up to the petty bureaucrat that shows up at your house's imagination.
Whatever they feel like complaining about on that day.
Perhaps you're not quite gender affirming enough.
Perhaps they're not being taught enough LGBTQ propaganda.
Perhaps they're not being told that they have an absolute right to abortion.
Who knows?
It could be any of those.
It could be anything else.
They love to leave these things vague.
That means officials will essentially be able to do what they like, including question children without their parents present.
How despicable and evil.
S-4589 is not merely an affront to homeschooling families, continued Woodruff.
Urging constituents of the senators to call and make their voices heard, it raises privacy concerns and undermines the fundamental principle of American jurisprudence that individuals are presumed innocent unless there is proof they have committed a crime.
Another controversial bill, SB 1796, was just featured in a June 5th hearing that drew hundreds of homeschool parents in opposition, as well as an attorney for the HSLDA.
If approved, it would require homeschool families to register with the government to provide information on the children without even basic privacy protections.
The situation in New Jersey follows a very predictable formula being observed in multiple states.
First, activists team up with far-left journalists to find an exceedingly rare case of a child not receiving an adequate education.
Or worse, a parents or guardians abusing or neglecting a child while claiming to be homeschooling.
Once a suitable case is identified, the activist journalist in quotes highlights the case, paints it as normal or potentially even common, quotes the totalitarian activists demanding government control, and then pesters legislators to comment on doing something with the media buzz.
Tyrannical lawmakers then have cover to introduce bills targeting homeschoolers.
In New Jersey's case, a major hit piece targeting home educators recently appeared in the nearby Philadelphia Inquirer under the headline, New Jersey is deeply unregulated on homeschooling, leaving the system vulnerable to child abuse.
Activist journalist Nate Feil expressed shock that the Garden State homeschooled children under complete control of their parents.
What a terrible thing.
Children under the control of their parents?
They should be under the control of the state, under the control of the schools that are going to tell them all these wonderful things about sexuality.
They're going to expose them to pornographic books in the library.
Isn't that wonderful?
Isn't that what we should want?
And I did some research on this journalist, Nate Feil.
He's nothing but another race grifter.
That's where he mainly focuses.
Social justice is his general wheelhouse, seems to be.
Talking about racial equity and that sort of thing.
So that's who we're working with.
In the state of New Jersey, there's essentially no oversight for homeschooling families, the reporter marveled, as if government, rather than parents, were the presumed protector and guardian of children.
There are no required tests to demonstrate that the children are getting an adequate education, and there are no mandated check-ins on the child's well-being.
Think of the children.
Think of the children.
They don't have a bureaucrat in their life.
Everyone needs their own personal bureaucrat, don't you know?
This hand wringing is disgusting.
A key part of the story involves a case in which a New Jersey couple was charged with abusing and neglecting a teenage girl who was supposedly being homeschooled.
As typical, the article did not mention federal data showing that one out of ten students in government schools faces sexual misconduct by staff, including rape and sodomy.
Illinois offered another very clear example of this after a far list activist news outlet funded by billionaire globalist George Soros started banging the war drums against homeschool freedom.
Lawmakers responded with legislation that could have made homeschooling parents into criminals for failure to file paperwork.
Thankfully for homeschoolers, the bill failed.
For now.
Got some comments.
SoloCat 1980.
Mutilating genitals is another depopulation method.
That's right.
If they can mutilate your genitals, if they can get you to mutilate and butcher yourself, even if you decide later on, oh, I was wrong, there's no going back.
There's no undoing that.
There's no reset for that.
You simply have to live with it forever.
If they simply propagandize you, there's a chance that you might go back.
You might realize that this is an empty, evil, vile ideology that is leaving you depressed and broken.
But once you have fully committed, once you have committed the right, the R-I-T-E of body mutilation, you're forever locked out of that.
Assyrian girl, parents are also tired from working all day, maybe both of them, like teachers who have worked all day to indoctrinate the kids from their energetic, non-tired hours.
That's right.
I think I ended up working it out at one point that seemingly it's about three hours that parents might have to actively spend with their kids.
But as a general rule, you know, you're not going to do that.
People are going to spend some time doing, you know, doing their own interests, whatever.
So at best, it seems like three to four hours would be the maximum a parent could spend with a child if they are working full-time and the child is going to school.
Three to four hours.
As opposed to the six hours which are spent solely devoted to indoctrination.
That's what it's all about.
It's about indoctrinating your child.
And unless you spend six hours unindoctrinating them, chances are the school system is going to win.
Audi MRR, we're supposed to believe that a bunch of demonic predators in government who literally practice child sacrifice care about children.
I know, it strange credulity, doesn't it, Audi?
It's very strange.
They're very deeply interested in children, but only in the sense that they get to control them and feed them this insane propaganda.
One of the most vocal groups leading the charge claims it is merely calling for responsible homeschooling to be enforced by government.
But the organization known as the Coalition for Responsible Home Education believes that the government must regulate and oversee homeschooling for it to be considered responsible.
That's right.
Well, we just want responsible homeschooling.
And by that we mean we want the government to come in and watch everything that you do at all times.
And right now, New Jersey is one of the key states in the group's crosshairs.
New Jersey is deeply unregulated compared to other states, said Jonah Stewart, the organization's interim executive director, in comments to the aforementioned activist media organization, which means that kids can in effect fall through the cracks.
Won't you think of the children?
Won't you think about them?
Won't you put a bureaucrat in their life?
For just the cost of your freedom, you can provide a child with a bureaucrat.
Isn't that lovely?
Isn't that what we want to do?
The computer science bubble is bursting.
This is an article from the Atlantic, and it's talking about how it's seemingly not such a good investment to get a computer science degree anymore.
There was a time where you went in, you got your computer science degree, and all of a sudden, boy howdy, you were set.
You had a career, and there was nothing you had to worry about.
You knew that if one company didn't pick you up, another one would.
You could probably freely hop between them.
You could say, I want a raise, or I'm going over here.
And chances are you would get it, assuming that you were actually halfway competent at your job.
But that's not the case anymore, because AI is remarkably good at doing the jobs of these people that are building AI.
AI's use case seems to be most efficient when it comes to getting rid of these people who do entry-level coding jobs.
Artificial intelligence is ideally suited to replacing the very type of person who built it.
What a shame.
The job of the future might already be past its prime.
For years, young people seeking a lucrative career urged to go all in on computer science.
From 2005 to 2023, the number of comp psi majors in the United States quadrupled.
All of which makes the latest batch of numbers so startling.
This year, enrollment grew by only 0.2%.
And at many programs, it appears to be already in decline, according to interviews with professors and department chairs at Stanford.
Widely considered one of the country's top programs, the number of Comp Psi majors has stalled after years of blistering growth.
Says Iman Ruskinowicz, the chair of Princeton's computer science department, told me that if current trends hold, the cohort of graduating Comp PSI majors at Princeton is set to be 25% smaller in two years than it is today.
The number of Duke students enrolled in introductory computer science courses has dropped about 20% over the past year.
That's right, they see the end, folks.
The bottom has dropped out.
It's not the path of the future.
It's not a worthwhile investment.
The AI is coming for the jobs.
It's so counterintuitive, Molly Kinder, a Brookings Institute fellow who studies AI.
AI's effect on the economy told me, this was supposed to be the job of the future.
The way to stay ahead of technology was to go to college and get coding skills, but the days of learn to code might be coming to an end.
If the numbers are any indication, we might have passed peak computer science.
Chris Gropp, a doctoral student at the University of Tennessee at Knoxville, oh, right nearby, has spent eight months searching for a job.
He triple majored in computer science, math, and computational science at the Rose Holman Institute of Technology and has completed the coursework for a computer science PhD.
He preferred to work instead of finishing his degree, but he has found it almost impossible to secure a job.
He knows of only two people who recently pulled it off.
One sent personalized cover letters for 40 different roles and set up meetings with people at the companies.
The other submitted 600 applications.
We're in an AI revolution, and I'm a specialist in the kind of AI that we're doing the revolution with, and I can't find anything, Grop told me.
I found myself a month or two ago considering, do I just take a break from this thing that I've been training for for most of my life and become an apprentice electrician?
Sounds like a good plan to me, bud.
Seems like it's only going to get worse.
Doesn't seem as though it's going to end up getting any better.
This is just the beginning of the revolution.
This is just the birth pains, the contractions, if you will.
And things are going to get more severe.
That's the unfortunate truth.
Of course, even a direct degree when it comes to a trade school or anything like that can be outmoded eventually.
So that is no guarantee of employment, but it's at least a start.
It's something that is more difficult for AI and these robots to take over.
But the main thing you want to focus on when you're looking for education is character and critical thinking.
If you can train your child to have critical thinking skills, it's more valuable than getting them to memorize a series of facts.
And if you can train them to have a good character, that is far more valuable than anything else.
A amoral person with critical thinking ability is not something you should be proud of.
All right, well, we're going to take a quick break.
Let me come back.
We're going to look at what happened with that mass shooting at the church and how they stopped the gunman.

Hey, David Night Show, I was driving earlier when you brought up Pokemon Public Schools.
I remember our babysitter wouldn't let us watch Captain Planet because of similar reasons.

But yes, I totally get where you're coming from with the Captain Planet thing.
It just never made any sense to me.
It never added up.
Oh, they'll panic about Pokemon.
They'll panic about Harry Potter.
And then just blindly, with a serene smile on their face, pat their child on the back, kiss the top of their head.
Oh, have fun at the satanic indoctrination camp that is public school.
Goodbye, little Timmy.
Please don't become a communist, Marxist, LGBT transoid.
Don't watch Pokemon, though.
It just never made any sense to me.
Even as a kid, I was like, this is silly.
This is dumb.
You're worried about the wrong things.
You've got your priorities all screwed up.
Now, if you're homeschooling and you want to rule out Pokemon and Harry Potter too, yes, feel free, absolutely.
That is your right.
And if you're already taking those steps to mitigate the influence of these insane people on your kids, I fully think you are in the right to do that sort of thing.
However, if you're just going to dump them into public school, it doesn't matter.
It really doesn't.
It's not going to be Pokemon that flips your child and turns them into an atheist, communist.
It's going to be the people you turn them over to.
Well, enough about that.
Let's talk about the mass shooting that wasn't.
You are your own first responder, Michigan Church Security Guard details confronting the gunman.
Jay Trombley said he had long wondered about facing an active shooter, questioning whether he would run to the confrontation or run away from it.
On Sunday morning at Cross Point Community Church in Wayne, Michigan, he got his answer.
It was muscle memory to go take care of the threat to protect the family, Trombley told ABC News, Detroit affiliate WXYZ.
On Sunday morning, the gunman identified as 31-year-old Brian Browning exited his Nissan truck wearing a tactical vest, armed with a long gun and a handgun when he approached the church building and began firing.
Several staff members from the church approached the gunman.
At least two staff members shot the gunman, causing fatal wounds, police said after the attack.
We are grateful for the heroic actions of the church's staff members, who undoubtedly saved many lives and prevented a large-scale mass shooting.
Wayne Police Chief Ryan Strong said during a press conference Sunday.
Trombly, a member of the church's security team with no military or police experience, helped prevent what Wayne Police Chief Ryan Strong What Wayne Police Chief Police Chief Ryan Strong said could have been a large-scale mass shooting.
Inside the church, worshipers first heard what sounded like a jackhammer, turned out to be 10 shots fired by the suspect.
Heard that everybody kind of paused in the church for a moment, witnessed Dustin Fioco told WXYZ describing how moments of confusion quickly turned to chaos.
The incident could have been catastrophic if not for a series of events that Pastor Bob Kelly Jr. calls divine providence.
A church member running late to service spotted Browning and struck him with his pickup truck, slowing the gunman's advance.
That's why, and Trombly entered the scene and shot Browning, killing him.
So don't ever, if I show up late to church and you see me, don't make a big deal out of it.
I'm just trying to prevent another, I'm, you know, I'm on the case.
I'm out here trying to protect against a late-coming mass shooter.
What if you need me to ram them?
It's simply me doing my part.
Church massacre canceled shooter, run over by deacons, then fatally shot by staff.
There was a great comment that said, The Ford works in mysterious ways.
It sure does.
What promised to be a ghastly church massacre in Michigan on Sunday was prevented by the speedy reactions of a church deacon and two staff members.
Put the pedal to the metal, with the deacon unleashing the first blow with his truck before a security guard and another staff member polished off the assailant with gunfire.
That's a rough final few moments.
You get absolutely trucked.
Then just get lit up.
The drama played out at Cross Point Community Church in Wayne, Michigan, a western Detroit suburb.
Police identified the dead shooter as Brian Anthony Browning, a 31-year-old white male with no known connection to the church.
There's another article I have somewhere in this stack where they later do detail that he had some connection.
I believe his mom had gone to that church and he had attended there multiple times.
Not many, between two and three, if memory serves.
From the other article.
Browning arrived at the church in a Nissan truck shortly after 11 a.m.
as a special vacation Bible school service was underway teeming with children and 150 congregants in all.
Police say he was wearing a tactical vest and carrying both a handgun and a long gun, a pointlessly vague police term that could describe either a rifle or shotgun.
After gaining the attention of staff members by driving recklessly outside the building, Browning exited his vehicle and opened fire on the church.
That's when he was met with a swift and decisive 1-2 punch.
When a deacon saw the shooter moving toward the church, he immediately turned his Ford F-150 pickup truck into a two-ton weapon, hitting the gas and running Browning over as the fiend fired multiple rounds at him.
The Ford works in mysterious ways, observed Zero Hedge Reader Rattis in an instant classic comment.
That bought time for staff members to engage him with gunfire.
At least two staff members shot the gun when causing fatal wounds, said Wayne Police Chief Ryan Strong.
One staffer suffered a gunshot wound to the leg.
I believe later it was corrected that he suffered two gunshot wounds, was shot twice in the leg, but he is still doing fine, but is expected to fully recover after undergoing surgery.
Though Browning was stopped quite close to the church, several of the rounds he fired entered it.
Livestream video of the service captured the congregation's multi-stage reaction to the attack, which proceeded from distraction to confusion and then fearful retreat.
One of the leaders of the service beckoning everyone to move to the back of the building.
For those of you who participated, thank you so much.
the footage here.
There was a lot of energy to corral in every day.
And our songs helped do that and so did our games.
But that doesn't mean that we didn't have...
That doesn't mean we didn't have time for Bible.
We're skipping forward here just so you can see.
People are beginning to run.
Come on, come on, come on.
It is also amazing how slow some people move.
Like, you can see some people still don't understand what's going on.
Some people are still just like, huh, interesting.
Not everyone has a top-tier survival instinct.
That's why you need people like these deacons and these men on security detail.
Because some people are just kind.
They're nice, they're friendly, they're wonderful, they're intelligent, but they don't have that survival instinct.
They're not going to be able to protect themselves effectively.
That's why certain people are better suited towards it.
Churchgoer Doug Blair told Fox 2 Detroit that he first mistook the sound of gunfire for construction noises.
After hearing someone announce an active shooter, he ran to a door, propped it open, and carefully took a look outside.
There was the shooter on the ground.
It's open, I think, he was still firing away.
It was all on the ground.
Right before I got to the door, you could hear it was going bam, bam, bam.
That's all you heard.
When I opened the door, one of the security people was in front of him, and one was on the other side of him.
They were just both emptying their clips.
That's right.
You don't stop shooting until the bad guy stops moving.
Gotta make sure.
Good for, uh...
I'm not happy that he was hit, but I'm glad that it wasn't serious, that he's going to be fine, that they were able to protect the church.
Chief Strong praised the swift and effective response.
It was very effective.
Hit him with a truck and then just emptied the mags into him while he was crippled on the ground.
For the quick actions of the church staff members, who undoubtedly saved many lives and runned a large-scale mass shooting.
He said, I would add that the church parishioners and staff members were trained in responding to emergency situations, which also saved lives.
I'm sure these men had practiced and drilled and prepared for this kind of scenario.
They wanted to make sure that if it did happen, they would be ready.
Pastor and police say Browning did not appear to have ever been a member of the church.
It was located about five miles away from this home in Romulus, Michigan.
There's no word yet about a motive.
It appears he was suffering from a mental health crisis.
Really makes you wonder.
Was he on SSRIs?
Was he another victim of these drugs that completely distort and warp the mental state of these people to where they do these things and have no memory of them?
They don't understand what's happening.
Chalk up another win for the good guys with guns and a Ford F-150.
That's right.
The only thing that stops a bad guy with a Ford F-150 is a good guy with a Ford F-150.
You better believe it, partner.
Well, very glad to see that the church was able to overcome this threat and to make sure that they protected themselves.
That's what we need to do.
If you are a member of a church, it's a good time to start thinking about this kind of thing.
We are in strange and uncertain times, but It is important to know that you can protect yourself or help protect others.
Got a comment here from Real Jason Barker and a tip that is very generous.
Thank you, Jason.
We really do appreciate it.
Good to have you back, Travis.
Can't wait till your pop is back in the chair.
Miss him.
Yes, I feel the same way, believe me.
I cannot wait to have him back in the chair and I can go back to being a behind-the-scenes voice that occasionally pops in.
It's my fondest wish, not just simply for my own selfish desires to be back behind camera, but because he does such a fantastic job.
He provides such excellent information that it is, I'm doing my best to fill in, but it is a pale imitation, I know.
Trump Burger, they will ban F-150s now.
That's right.
He was killed with a deadly assault F-150 with a high-capacity gas tank, which we just can't have.
Ford equals found on road dead.
Gives an entirely new meaning to the acronym.
Surely.
We've got more info here.
Michigan police identify suspect in church shooting.
The suspect has been identified as a 31-year-old Brian Anthony Browning from Romulus, Michigan, whose mother was a member of the congregation.
This is that article I was talking about, where more info had apparently come out.
And police in Michigan have identified the suspect, gunman, in a church shooting Sunday in which one person was wounded before the gunman was killed by a church security officer.
The state's Wayne County Police Department has identified the suspect as 31-year-old Brian Anthony Browning from Romulus, Michigan, whose mother was a member of the congregation, according to NBC News.
So it's coming from NBC News.
So take it with a grain of salt.
We may this may come out to be incorrect later.
The department also said the shooter attended services at the church two or three times over the course of the last year.
Ronning was allegedly armed with an AR-15 style assault rifle that was equipped with more than a dozen magazines of ammunition, a semi-automatic handgun with an extended magazine, and hundreds of rounds of ammunition.
He allegedly opened fire outside of the Cross Point Community Church and shot one security officer in the leg twice before he was killed by another security officer.
The injured officer is in stable condition after surgery.
We're going to move along from that incident.
We've got an article here.
At least two attacks on Christians are logged each day in India.
This is from a watchdog organization.
Before we move on, I have a comment from Dad.
He asks, was the Ford fully automatic?
Exactly.
A fully automatic assault Ford with a high-capacity gas tank.
It was dangerous.
No civilian should have that kind of firepower.
At least two attacks on Christians are logged each day in India, says a watchdog.
This is by Anugra Kumar, Christian Post contributor.
At least two attacks on Christians are being reported every day in India.
This year, according to new figures released by a Christian advocacy group, a total of 313 incidents were recorded between January and May alone.
Based on calls to a toll-free helpline run by the New Delhi-based interdenominational body, United Christian Forum, according to the Union of Catholic Asian News, pattern of violence has intensified steadily over the past decade.
UCF data shows the organization logged 834 incidents of attacks on Christians in 2024, up from 734 in 2023 and 601 in 2022.
So it is a steadily rising number of attacks.
This isn't just a one-off happen stance where, oh, it's gone up this year, but it's been fairly stable the other years.
It is continually going up since 2022.
AC Michaels, UCF National Convener and member of the Delhi Minorities Commission, told the UCA News the incidents include viral hate, brutal mob violence, and rampant social ostracization, pointing to Uttar Pradesh and Chattagarsh as the most severely affected states.
In 2024, Uttar Pradesh reported 209 incidents biased in the country, followed by 165 in Chhattagar by the end of May.
Tatishkar had already recorded 64 cases of violence against Christians with Uttar Pradesh close behind at 58. Christian activist Manashki Singh based in Uttar Pradesh was quoted as saying that a large number of these attacks are driven by accusations of forced conversions.
Singh rejected the claim, calling them baseless.
That's right.
We know that in Christianity, as a general rule, most denominations, even those that have some very other wacky beliefs, understand that a forced conversion is worthless.
It is not simply about getting them to recite some words.
They have to believe it.
Forcing someone to convert to Christianity doesn't do anything for them.
They have to truly believe the words.
They have to truly believe that Jesus Christ is their Savior.
They have to confess and repent of their sins.
That's what matters.
Getting them to say a ritual mantra has no meaning at all.
Singh rejected the claims, calling them baseless.
In 2022, the Supreme Court of India asked for reports on forceful conversions from the federal and state governments, but still, but till today, no government has been able to provide documentary evidence, Singh said.
Twelve of India's 28 states have laws that restrict religious conversions.
Most of these are governed by the Hindu nationalists BJP, which Christian groups accuse of enabling Hindu nationalist attacks under the guise of anti-conversion enforcement.
Christian leaders argue that these laws are often misused by Hindu nationalist groups to harass and intimidate Christian communities.
If this trend is not stopped immediately, it will threaten the identity and existence of the Indian Christian community in its motherland, said Michael, alleged that the legal and judicial systems are failing to protect Christian minorities, And said many victims avoid reporting assaults out of fear of reprisal.
The UCF maintains a log of complaints received through its helpline and contact network, recording a steady year-on-year increase in incidents since 2014.

First you electrocute them, then it combusts, killing them instantaneously.

Hmm.

We're connecting the red string.
It all makes sense.

It's truly diabolical.
ISIS killed at least 25 in Syrian church attack, injured dozens, says the Syrian government.
Following a preliminary investigation, the Syrian government says the Islamic State is responsible for a suicide bombing at a Greek Orthodox church in Damascus that killed at least 25 people and injured dozens of others on Sunday.
The blast occurred Sunday morning during a prayer service at the Mar Elias Church in the El Duwali, El Duwela district in the Syrian capital, UPI reported, saying the assailant entered the building, opened fire on the congregation, and then detonated an explosive vest.
Security forces sealed off the area, allowing bomb disposal and forensic teams to begin investigating the scene.
Graphic images shared by the Greek Orthodox Patriarchate of Antioch showed bloodied floors and scattered remains inside the church.
The initial casualty toll released by Syria's Ministry of Health reported 9 dead and 13 injured.
By Monday morning, the figures had risen to at least 25 dead and 59 wounded.
With the Health Ministry sharing photos of Assistant Health Minister Hussein al-Khatib visiting survivors at local hospitals, Interior Minister Anas Khatab condemned the attack on social media and vowed that terrorist acts will not deter the Syrian state's efforts to achieve civil peace.
A suicide bomber affiliated with the terrorist organization ISIS entered St. Elias Church in the Duwaila neighborhood of Damascus, opened fire, and then detonated an explosive vest, a statement from Khattab reads.
The Greek Orthodox Patriarchate of Antioch released a statement following the bombing saying, The arrow of lawlessness was unleashed and struck our souls in the night.
Called for prayers for the dead and support for the wounded.
While no group immediately claimed responsibility, Interior Ministry spokesman Noraddin Al-Baba said the Islamic State was suspected based on preliminary findings.
Security of places of worship is a red line, Al-Baba said, adding that such attacks were attempts to destabilize Syria and undermine national coexistence, according to Fox News.
The country's foreign ministry called the attack a desperate attempt to create discord during Syria's fragile transitional period.
We have seen that violence against Christians has risen quite significantly since Assad lost power.
This is once again another victim of U.S. and Israeli foreign policy.
The number of sanctions and the way we have treated Syria over the years and the way that Israel has once again carried on against them has led to this.
This is once again something you can lay at our feet and Israel's feet.
This level of violence and hatred was being kept in check largely when Assad was in power.
Next article still about the suicide bombing.
Suicide bomber detonates explosive vests, kills more than 20 in Christian church in Damascus.
At least 20 people were killed and dozens injured when a suicide bomber blew himself up in the Mar Elias Church in Syria's capital, Damascus.
You can see some of the devastation in that photo right there.
It is truly heartbreaking.
So please, please keep these people in your prayers.
Keep the families in your prayers.
Several people were killed and dozens injured when a suicide occurred.
It would be truly sad and horrifying to see.
Keep the families of those who are dead and injured in your prayers.
Keep the injured in your prayers.
And just pray for the entire Christian population in Damascus and Syria in general.
It seems the issues that the United States foreign policy causes for Christians around the globe are once again rearing their head.
I don't remember the exact numbers, but in Iraq and Afghanistan, pre and post-war, they dropped dramatically.
They had had enough of American foreign policy and what they perceived as the Christians who were sort of indicative of it.
They got sick of them and tried to root them out and they killed many, many of them.
It is truly sad to see that once again that American foreign policy is accomplishing this and causing or at least empowering these people to engage in this kind of behavior and resulting in more deaths.
We are going to take a quick break.
When we come back, we'll look more at what's going on with Iran and probably continue there until we finish out the show.
Stay with us.
Analyzing the globalist's next move.
And now...
The David Knight Show.
You're listening to the David Knight Show.
Welcome back, folks.
Thank you for staying with us.
Hope you're having a wonderful morning.
We're almost out of time here.
We've got about 20 minutes left.
And as I said, we're going to continue to look at what's going on with the Middle East and Iran.
Mededev?
Medvedev.
This is from Zero Hedgeman.
Medvedev reacts.
Number of countries now ready to supply Iran with their own nuclear warheads.
On Sunday morning, Russia's former president and current deputy chairman of the country's Security Council, Dmitry Medvedev, issued his reaction to the major U.S. overnight strike on Iran's nuclear facilities, giving what's essentially the view of where things stand from the Kremlin.
Now I'm assuming this Dmitry has not any relation to our dog.
Medvedev, in a 10-point list of reactions, characterized the attacks as ultimately ineffective, and that it will blow back on America and Israel in a way opposite than intended, especially as Tehran will now only push harder for a nuke, and allied countries might now simply be willing to supply them to the Iranians, he described.
Interestingly, Medvedev also echoed Moscow's stance on nuclear warheads in the Middle East.
And it's written over the weekend on his V Contacte page, does Iran have nuclear weapons?
We don't know, but we know that Israel has a secret nuclear program.
Let them both renounce such programs under the supervision of the UN Security Council and IAEA.
As for the 10-point critique of the brazen U.S. heavy bombing of the Islamic Republic, Medvedev wrote on X as follows.
What have the Americans accomplished with their nighttime strikes on three nuclear sites in Iran?
He first posted before listing.
One, critical infrastructure of nuclear fuel cycle appears to have been unaffected or sustained only minor damage.
The enrichment and two, the enrichment of nuclear material.
And now we can say it outright.
The future production of nuclear weapons will continue.
Three, a number of countries are ready to directly supply Iran with their own nuclear warheads.
That's right.
People are seeing it.
It's like, oh man, the only way this is going to stop, the only way Israel and America can be deterred is with the threat of mutually assured destruction, with a threat of nuclear retaliation.
So maybe if we give them that, it'll get them to relax and calm down.
Number four, Israel is under attack.
Explosions are rocking the country and people are panicking.
It is.
Again, we saw it directly after they attacked Iran.
They immediately issued a warning saying, you have to be wary.
We've just struck Iran and they may retaliate.
And they made it sound so insidious on Iran's part that they might dare to strike back at the country that had attacked them first.
That they might dare to strike back.
And it was truly shocking to see the level of just manipulation, even in that.
Just, oh, bewary, our citizens.
The evil that is Iran may strike back at us.
After, you know, we launched many bombings and killed many people.
But that's not the key point.
It's just, you now have to worry, citizens.
You now have to worry.
Be afraid of Iran.
Going back to point three, it's a number of countries are ready to directly supply Iran.
I feel like the American attacks are only going to make that worse because America already has a lot of enemies and so does Israel.
And people can see giving weapons to Iran as a sort of proxy to attack America.
Yeah.
You're going to use them, right?
Please?
You would do that for us.
We'll give them to you.
Iran's number six or number five.
The U.S. is now entangled in a new conflict with prospects of a ground operation looming on the horizon.
Number six, Iran's political regime has survived and in all likelihood has come out even stronger.
That's right.
It has accomplished nothing when it comes to removing the so-called theocratic ruler, the one that we are supposed to fear and hold in contempt as someone who hates us.
But he's probably doing all right.
In fact, the fact that America has reached out and launched strikes and Israel has done that as well probably leaves him in a stronger position.
And in fact, makes it easier for him to go, see, I told you, told you about those guys.
They're bad news.
Number seven, the people are rallying around the country's spiritual leadership, including those who were previously indifferent or opposed to it.
We've seen that in the other wars, Iraq and Afghanistan.
It makes people more hardline.
It creates a lot of very extremists.
It creates a lot of extremists in the Muslim religion.
They see this happening and they go, well, they've been warning me about this.
They've been telling me about this.
Obviously, I must join whichever group opposes them.
And they get more radicalized.
Number eight, Donald Trump, once hailed as president of peace, has now pushed the U.S. into another war.
That's right.
Good old peaceful Don has dragged us, kicking and screaming, back to the Middle East, back to our beautiful battleground that we just can't get enough of.
The vast majority of countries around the world oppose the actions of Israel in the United States.
This is number nine.
It's true.
Most people around the world can look at this and go, this isn't right.
Israel has been playing the victim for years, and it's getting old.
Number 10, at this rate, Trump can forget about the Nobel Peace Prize, not even with how rigged it has become.
That's just a direct jab at Donald Trump right there.
You know, he's got to be seething in the White House.
Where's my peace prize?
Where is it, gosh darn it?
I only launched a small precision strike.
It wasn't that big of a deal.
Medvedev actually finishing his point number 10 with this sarcastic dig at the U.S. leader writing, what a way to kick things off, Mr. President.
Congratulations.
It certainly complicates things in terms of Russia's military operation in Ukraine.
Moscow has long received its major supply of Shahed Kamikaze drones from Iran and its ongoing defense contracts and agreements, including possibly to receive mid-range missiles.
Washington is flexing in Moscow's direction with its major long-range B two bomber military operation on the other side of the world.
We're always posturing back and forth.
Always back and forth.
Iran reporter finds Trump strikes at nothing burger.
Only smoke from Ford Ow Air Defense, not nuclear site, zero significant emergency activity.
Was Trump's spectacular bombing just for show?
However, Washington is clearly targeting Iran as part of a new axis, which some US defense officials have previously described as consisting of Russia, Iran, and North Korea.
But to some degree, Trump likely went full bombs away on Iran because it's the weaker country among the three.
And such an attack was easy, whereas it would be impossible to attack Russia or North Korea without triggering potential nuclear war.
That is assuming you believe North Korea has nuclear weapons.
Real national emergency, endless wars, failing infrastructure, and a dying republic.
This is from Zero Hedge.
It's authored by John Whitehead and Nisha Whitehead via the Rutherford Institute.
I assume it's Nisha Whitehead.
It's a Nisha White Ged here, but that doesn't make much sense.
Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies in the final sense a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed.
President Dwight D. Eisenhower, April 16th, 1953.
70 years after President Dwight D. Eisenhower warned about the cost of a military industrial complex, America is still stealing from its own people to fund a global empire.
In 2025 alone, the U.S. has launched airstrikes in Yemen, Operation Rough Rider, bombed Houthi-controlled ports and raider installations, killing scores of civilians, deployed greater numbers of troops and multiple aircraft carriers to the Middle East, and edged closer to direct war with Iran in support of Israel's escalating conflict.
Each of these new fronts has been sold to the public as national defense.
In truth, they are the latest outposts in a decade-long campaign of empire maintenance, one that lines the pockets of defense contractors while schools crumble, bridges collapse, and veterans sleep on the streets at home.
This isn't about national defense.
This is empire maintenance.
It's about preserving a military-industrial complex that profits from endless war, global policing, and foreign occupations while the nation's infrastructure rots and its people are neglected.
You often hear this from a somewhat leftist perspective of, oh, well, that money that we spent on the bombs could have been spent on the schools.
But really, why take the money from the people in the first place?
The money that you spent on the bombs could have been not stolen from the people that earned it.
That is the real thing that's going to affect the economy in deep ways, which could prevent people from being hungry and unclothed in the first place.
Yes, it could have been left with the people, as Lance said, who earned the money so that they had the ability to either save it or to spend it on things, to put it back into the economy, to maybe start a business with it.
It's about preserving military-industrial complex that profits from endless war, global policing, and foreign occupations.
The United States has spent much of the past half century policing the globe, occupying other countries, and waging endless wars.
Most Americans fail to recognize that these ongoing wars have little to do with keeping the country safe and everything to do with propping up a military industrial complex that has its sight set on world domination.
Or has become a huge money-making venture in the U.S. government, with its vast military empire, as one of its best buyers and sellers.
America's role in the Russia-Ukraine conflict has already cost taxpayers more than $112 billion, and now the price of empire is rising again.
Clearly, it's time for the U.S. government to stop policing.
The globe, the U.S. military, reportedly has more than 1.3 million men and women on active duty, with more than 200,000 of them stationed overseas in nearly every country in the world.
American troops are stationed in Somalia, Iraq, and Syria, in Germany, South Korea, and Japan, in Saudi Arabia, Jordan, and Oman, in Niger, Chad, and Mali, in Turkey, the Philippines, and Northern Australia.
These numbers are likely significantly higher, in keeping with the Pentagon's policy of not fully disclosing where and how many troops are deployed for the sake of operational security and denying the enemy any advantage.
As investigative journalist David Vine explains, although few Americans realize it, the United States likely has more bases in foreign lands than any other people, nation, or empire in history.
It is this vast, sprawling mass of tentacles that stretch across the globe that we have created a monster.
The American government has its tentacles latched onto every country in the world.
We are a swaggering, bullying foreign power to these people.
We routinely tell people how it's going to be because they simply can't resist us.
They cannot say no.
They know what will happen if they do.
At minimum, it'll be sanctions.
We will use our economic might to destroy them.
And that's the best case scenario.
If it continues, who knows?
Maybe you'll get a visit and a strike from good old Donnie as well.
Nights of the Storm.
The more this goes on, the more it seems like they are setting up a trigger event.
Seems like it's planned out to get to an eventual goal.
Yeah.
They're probably planning some kind of false flag we've routinely seen.
People floating the idea that Iran wants to assassinate Donald Trump.
That, oh, they want to get rid of him.
They want to kill Donald Trump.
You have to remember, it's the Iranians.
They are desperate to get rid of him.
It started a while ago.
It was at least last year, though it may have been even in his first term that they were saying it.
Ibiru 2029.
Marks America is wagging the dog in the Middle East.
That is, yeah.
It is a wag the dog scenario.
Well, we've got about nine minutes left.
We'll take a quick break and we will be right back.
Stay with us, folks.
Don't go anywhere.
You're listening to The David Knight Show.

It's the David Knight Show.
Wait a minute.
Where am I?
Sorry, Jefferson.
The scoundrels who put America on central bank fiat currency used our heads on their coins as some sort of trophy.
Despicable.
This is outrageous.
Washington.
I spent my life fighting centralized power.
Now the Federal Reserve Monopoly parades us around on their monopoly money.
Tell me there's some good news to all this.
Well, there is a coin they can't control.
One that isn't backed by the Fed, but backed by the Fed up.
The all-new David Night Show commemorative coin.
Now patriots can support a show that won't sell out with a limited edition coin that's sure to sell out quickly.
They say money talks, and this coin has something worth listening to.
The truth doesn't need inflation, only support.
The truth doesn't need inflation, only support.
Well, welcome back, folks.
We've got about five minutes left here.
I want to make sure that I cover the story briefly.
The Proud Boys are the latest MAGA cultists to break up with Trump.
That's right.
There's some buyer's remorse there.
This is from Boing Boing by Seamus Bellamy.
Proud Boys are beginning to understand that, oh, wait a minute, he's not who he said he was.
The real question is, how did they not know sooner?
How were they taken for a ride for this long?
After what happened with COVID, the scam, the lockdown, the obviousness of it all, how has it taken this long for them to catch on to the grift?
It's truly amazing.
Donald Trump campaigned on anti-immigration rhetoric in keeping America out of foreign conflicts, but has veered sharply from his isolationist promises during his second term.
Isolationist promises.
Okay, Seamus.
During his second term, after a failed attempt to mediate between Israel and Palestine during the ongoing humanitarian crisis, the former reality TV star's latest international move was even more dramatic.
Ordering strikes on three Iranian nuclear facilities last weekend.
I suppose when the evidence is literally a bomb shell, it's hard to ignore it, right?
When it's, you know, Anthony Fauci being given all the power in the world to do whatever he wants, when it's people being locked up in their houses and put on ventilators in hospitals under slow kill orders.
I guess it's a bit easier to look away and pretend you don't see it.
Pretend you don't really understand.
Pretend that it's not Trump's fault.
When it's literally a bombshell.
Perhaps that's what makes the difference.
You're not able to pretend anymore.
You're not able to go, oh, well, you know, it wasn't really his doing.
No, he's the one that ordered it directly.
SoloCan 1980 and Trump bombed Syria in his first term based on lies.
What a wonderful peace president we have here, isn't it, folks?
Isn't he just absolutely wonderful?
Peaceful Donnie is what they call him.
Well, he technically didn't declare war.
Only Congress has that power.
Launching unauthorized bombing runs in Foreign airspace remains an impeachable offense.
This is what they should have tried to impeach him for.
This is what they should have looked at and said, you need to go.
But since they already tried that over nonsense, he's inoculated against it.
Everyone seems to be pissed off with Donnie right now.
Lawmakers from both sides are demanding accountability.
Even his staunchest supporters, the ones who helped him undermine American democratic principles, are distancing themselves after the bombing.
When the president posted a celebratory message on True Social, the response in the Proud Boy's public telegram channel was notably hostile.
If the United States gets directly involved in the Israel-Iran conflict, the voters that voted for Trump because there was a hope that Trump was America First can no longer support Trump.
That was a sentence.
America First does not mean war for Israel.
Donald Trump, focus on the health of our nation.
Period.
We are crumbling.
We are crippled with debt.
With no plan for a solution, be the president.
You ran as.
The proud boys are starting to realize there's some buyers' remorse.
They're realizing, wait a minute, he was always a scorpion.
Gosh, darn it, how did I not notice the stinger, the claws?
But that's what he always was, and it was obvious to anyone that was paying the slightest bit of attention.
Oh man, but you love to see it.
How much lower his approval rating can go, even amongst his formerly starwart Turdreich supporters, is anybody's guess.
Well, I'm sure while they're right on this case that the Proud Boys are having buyer's remorse, and they should be because Trump is not the man he said he was, I'm sure Seamus Bellamy is an insufferable dork that I would absolutely despise and refuse to hang out with.
He's right on this, though.
He's absolutely right.
So, got to give you, I suppose I must congratulate you on that, Seamus.
You are right.
The proud boys have buyers' remorse.
Trump is not a peaceful president.
He is a despicable warmonger, just like all the others.
And that's how it goes here in the United States.
They lie, they get into power, and go back to business as usual.
Well, we've got about 45 seconds left here in today's show.
I want to thank you all for tuning in and spending the time with us here.
I really do appreciate it.
I will be back tomorrow, and we will continue to cover what's going on in the Middle East.
There's more news from the Middle East than one man could possibly cover if he did it all day long.
So no shortage there.
Again, thank you all for your support.
We ask that you continue to pray for our dad, pray for his healing, that his speech would be returned to him fully.
Thank you all again so much.
We really do appreciate it.
It has been wonderful to be here with you.
And I will see you all tomorrow.
Same time, same channel.
Have a good rest of your day.
