Israeli officials warn Iran deal leaves major security concerns unresolved
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Israel Katz have emphasized that Israel is not a party to the agreement. According to the report, Israeli officials fear the arrangement would provide Iran with time to rebuild economically and militarily. Officials warned that after such a recovery period, “it will be hard for the Americans and us to go back and fight.” A central issue for Israeli decision-makers is whether Iran’s nuclear material would actually be removed from the country, a step that US President Donald Trump has repeatedly pledged would occur under an agreement.

Western diplomats and analysts treat the Islamic Republic as a conventional nation-state driven by national interest, borders, and civil welfare. This is a dangerous illusion. The Islamic Republic is a transnational revolutionary movement that captured Iran’s geography and resources, transforming a historic nation into a command headquarters to export fundamentalist ideology. At its core sits the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC). The IRGC does not merely serve the regime; the IRGC is the regime.

The latest example of cultural Marxism-infested blue states like New York is S.9316. Among its most significant changes are replacement of “mother” with “gestating parent” and “father” with “non-gestating parent.” For now, its focus is limited to state statutes, not greeting cards, so the Father’s Day card you purchased remains safe, for now.

Why The Millionaire Next Door Drives a Used Car – And What That Teaches About Real Wealth
The common thread is intentionality. Wealthy people do not spend less overall because they are cheap – they spend less on things they do not care about, so they can spend more on things they do care about and invest the difference.

A new law signed by Virginia Democrat Governor Abigail Spanberger earlier this year would prohibit the sale or transfer of vast numbers of firearms – but more than a dozen local Virginia prosecutors have said they simply won’t enforce the ban.

Second Amendment groups also subsequently filed both state and federal lawsuits, saying that the law clearly violates Supreme Court precedent.
