The Morning Report — 6/ 8 /26

Good morning kids. We are loaded with links to kick off the new week. First up, there was a massive earthquake that struck the Philippines, so prayers up for those affected.

Also overseas there seems no real end in sight for the conflict with Iran. Certainly no real long term good end to it...

In a post on X, Barak Ravid, a global affairs correspondent for Axios, shared that Trump told him he was “going to call Netanyahu” and tell Netanyahu “not to strike back.” Trump’s comments to Ravid come after Iran retaliated with a missile strike on Israel after Israel struck Beirut in response to an attack from Hezbollah, according to Axios. Axios reported that Israel Defense Forces (IDF) “said sirens sounded in northern Israel as four missiles were launched from Iran”:

. . . One United States official, along with “two other sources” told the outlet that Israel had “notified the Trump administration before the strike” on Beirut. Another U.S. official told the outlet that the U.S. “supports Israel’s right to self-defense and stands with the legitimate Government of Lebanon as it works to deliver a better future for its citizens.”

Yes,I get it that unnamed sources as well as propaganda organs like Axios are to be taken with a grain of salt. But there is no doubt that President Trump no doubt would like the conflict to be over with as soon as possible, both to spare the lives of American service personnel and any innocent parties on the ground and to staunch the political fallout here at home as we get closer and closer to the crucial midterm elections.

But to expect Israel to not respond after a massive and deadly missile barrage is just as clueless as not understanding the nature of not merely Iran but of that nation's motivating force Islam. That is why there really is no successful endgame other than the absolute defeat of the Mullahs and the eradication of those who support it and the replacement of some sort of at least minimally benign regime that will not export Islamic terrorism and aggression in he name of Islamic global conquest and the destruction ofAmerica, the West and our allies. that is why negotiations are delusional unless President Trump himself is somehow using them as some sort of feint before delivering some sort of unknown knockout blow that will give him an unambiguous victory. And I have no idea what that would be.

“This is regime change,” Trump added. “One regime is gone, another regime is gone, we’re dealing with the third. Pieces of it, because some of them are gone, too.”

Regrettably, the president’s math is premised on a misguided assumption. Regime change requires the eradication of the ruling ideology, not merely the removal of some of the rulers who enforce it.

The two obvious examples of successful regime change that spring to mind are from World War II. Both prove the point in different ways.

When the U.S. and its allies occupied Nazi Germany following its unconditional surrender, de-Nazification was a comprehensive, whole-of-society effort to eradicate both the ruling ideology and the rulers themselves. This was necessary to eradicate over a decade of Nazi indoctrination and genocidal totalitarian rule over the German people, as well as the vile regime’s similar domination of occupied nations, which occurred with the support of elements within those local populations. Consequently, a root-and-branch elimination of the Nazi ideology followed. While Hitler and other top Nazis cheated the hangman, the Nuremberg war crimes trials resulted in the execution and/or imprisonment of remaining key regime leaders. Thus, in the instance of regime change in Nazi Germany, both the National Socialist ideology and its regime’s leadership were eradicated.

And of course closer to home Ho-Hum-Ho-Hum the Democrats have stolen yet another election.

The way the game is being played this time is even sleazier with an attempt to knock out Spencer Pratt, who finished second on Election Night, in the first round with a whole lot of ‘late arriving ballots’ for the third place candidate, Nithya Raman.

It’s not remotely credible for a third place candidate who finished on Election Night in the twenties to be picking up 40% of late arriving ballots.

The previous defense that Democrats pick up more late arriving ballots doesn’t work either because it turns out that the Democrat who gets the most late arriving ballots is… the one who needs them more.

Magical isn’t it.

All with a turnout that somehow topped the much more popular and momentous 2022 mayoral election.

You know, getting rid of the Mullahs is all well and good, but unless and until the Democrat/Left is wiped off the face of the earth for all time (rhetorically speaking of course!) we are going over the cliff.

Have a great day,

  . . . Yep, that’s exactly what we assumed, since we had been watching Joe glitch for more than four years, despite the best efforts of his “American Politburo” of minders, led by the ambitious Jill, to conceal her husband’s frailties.
