The Morning Report — 3/10/26

Good morning kids. Regardless of one's feelings about attacking Iran the one salient point that most people miss and the Democrat Left and other fifth columnists of the fourth estate and elsewhere, here at home are desperate to ignore or otherwise explain away is that Iran has been at war with us for 47 years, thank you Jimmy Carter and by extension Clinton, Obama, Biden and the insane traitorous Foggy Bottom-dwellers.

Over decades, they killed and wounded thousands of Americans by bombing U.S. embassies, barracks, and bases in the Middle East—without directly confronting the American military. For years, they sent lethal shaped charge IEDs to the Shiite insurgents to slaughter and maim thousands of Americans in Iraq and to the Taliban to do the same in Afghanistan. . . their massive acquisitions of air, land, and sea weapons and the empowering of terrorists, coupled with their passive-aggressive claims to victimhood, both scared and enticed President Obama into dropping sanctions. Soon, he was apologizing for supposed past sins and nocturnally sending them millions of dollars in Danegeld.

But worse by far, Obama thought he had squared the circle of neutralizing the supposed Middle Eastern Iranian juggernaut by envisioning it as an empathetic victim—and eventual friend if not ally. . . When Trump and Netanyahu are out of office, they dream of using their oil to rearm and resume their role as Chinese and Russian proxies, eventually getting the bomb, and the second time around, perhaps using it. Theocratic Iran, in its fantasies, still believes that if it ever destroyed Israel with a bomb or two, the world, especially given the recrudescence of Western antisemitism, would be appalled—for a day or two. Then it would resume business with it. And with a dozen or so deterrent nuclear-tipped missiles, the Iranian ritual boilerplate of crazed pronouncements would follow of supposedly welcoming a nuclear pathway to an eternal virginal Paradise.

Excellent observations as usual by lurker extraordinaire and Ace cruelty fanboi numero uno Prof. Victor Davis Hanson.

And of course, while the Iranian mullah-ocracy has been waging war against us for 47 years lest we forget that its driving force Islam has been waging a war of conquest against the entire world for nearly 1,500 years and regardless of the outcome this time around in Iran, please God the Muallahs are removed and a benign if not sane government and society are restored sans Islam, the latter will never stop in its eternal crusade to conquer the world.

So with the world's attention on Iran, we have had several Islamic attacks around the globe including right here in America in NYC.

Two Muslims threw IEDs at protesters against the Islamization of New York. The media is pushing the usual narrative that they were ‘radicalized’ and support ISIS.

There was also a bombing at the U.S. Embassy in Oslo. . . And there was another explosion outside a synagogue in Belgium. . .

. . . Now let’s go back to that pattern thing. If there had been an explosion outside a mosque, if two Christian men had thrown IEDs at a Muslim rally and if a bomb had gone off outside a Muslim country’s embassy in the wake of a mass shooting at a Muslim restaurant… the media would spot the pattern and broadcast it as loudly as it could. Instead anyone who does is promptly lectured about ‘Islamophobia’. Because the narrative must be protected at all costs from spotting the pattern.

The attack in NYC was right in front of Gracie Mansion, occupied now by a full-on Islam-unist Mayor and his Jew-hating concubine.

The press release states that during a “Stop the Islamic Takeover of New York City, Stop New York City Public Muslim Prayer” protest outside Gracie Mansion, Balat allegedly “ignited and threw an explosive device” toward protesters. (RELATED: Mamdani Leaves Huge Policing Question Unanswered After ISIS-Linked Bomb Attack)

After throwing the device, Balat allegedly retrieved a second explosive from Kayumi down the block. Balat appeared to ignite and drop it near several New York Police Department (NYPD) officers before running away. He was quickly tackled, and both he and Kayumi were arrested by officers moments later. After his arrest, Balat told NYPD officers, “This isn’t a religion that just stands when people talk about the blessed name of the prophet.” He claimed, “If I didn’t do it someone else will come and do it.” The press release states that Balat requested a piece of paper after arriving at the NYPD precinct, allegedly writing, “All praise is due to Allah lord of all worlds! I pledge my allegiance to the Islamic State. Die in your rage yu [sic] kuffar! Emir B.” Kuffar is the plural form of “kafir,” an Arabic word which means “nonbeliever” or “infidel” according to the Counter Extremism Project.

That Mamdani is as rabid as they are makes no difference had he and his wife been maimed or killed. It's the same mindset that considers the deaths of their own children and others as good propaganda to further the cause.

God bless our troops and our Commander-in-Chief and here's hoping for a real accomplished mission in Iran, with the liberation of its citizenry and a crushing defeat for the current main front of the war of Islam against civilization.

PS, Stevie Wonder's real blindness has nothing to do with his optic nerve.

Have a great Day!

• He told Breitbart News that President Donald Trump’s decision to strike reflects a clear America First action taken squarely in the nation’s national-security interest after diplomacy failed to stop a radical regime racing toward a hardened nuclear threshold — a precision campaign designed not to start another forever war, but to end one, restore American deterrence, and place the region on the precipice of a new Middle Eastern order.

• In an attempt to ease concerns over spiking oil prices, President Trump has insisted that this critical chokepoint is now safe enough to pass through due to sufficient damage to Iran’s navy at the hands of the U.S. military. It’s only a matter of “guts.” The dynamics on the ground, however, are far more complicated and risky than the president and the administration seem to realize. Factor in Iran’s drones and sea mines — the latter of which haven’t reportedly been used yet — and the Strait of Hormuz crisis shows no signs of ending anytime soon.
