Iran has been at war with the United States for nearly fifty years. It’s just that the United States didn’t deign to recognise it. Except for wording words, from president after president. “We must deal with Iran and all options are on the table”. Except they weren’t. The only options “on the table” were talks, sanctions and deals that were immediately broken by the Ayatollahs.
Until Trump. Who really did have all options in the table. Which makes me realise the reason for calling the operation “Epic Fury”. You tweak the tail of the lion often enough, he turns on you with fury. *Epic* Fury. Because it’s taken so long to build.
Daniel Greenfield is correct approximately 100% of the time in the video above.According to my understanding in 20 years now of studying Islam, its theology, its ideology, its caliphate ambitions: he’s spot on.
I used to follow the late David Horowitz, Daniel’s predecessor and founder of the Centre Daniel now runs. Horowitz used to be a Marxist. Who changed when he understood the damage Marxism had done to the world. I always identified with that, as I’d also had an eye opening time when I went to live in Cultural Revolutionary China in the 70s and saw what extreme leftism, Marxism, Maoism had done to China. And by contrast what market forces did in the next 40 years.
Daniel covers a lot in this talk. The current war, Hamas, the Muslim Brotherhood, Islamophobia and more:
- Why the media narrative around “genocide” is being pushed
- The real reason the Israel–Palestine conflict isn’t about land
- How universities became hostile to Israel and the West
- Qatar’s influence in American institutions
- Why the UN targets Israel more than any other country
- The growing divide inside the conservative movement
- And what may be driving major voices like Tucker Carlson
