Analysis:  If the USA were to go now against Iran’s nuclear and ballistic supply, are there enough munitions?

“The question of whether the US can destroy the Pickaxe Mountain nuclear facility will partly be an intelligence race of who can outwit whom, matching offensive and defensive capabilities.”¹

Charles C. Johnson lied, and lied, and lied; and that’s how he revved up tons of Jew-hatred.

• He claimed to be an FBI informant to gain credibility and threaten and pressure businesses to form relations with him.
• He fabricated slander and lies connecting people with Epstein and child sex trafficking who were not connected.
• He leveraged these lies to increase antisemitism, pinning crimes on Israel, and to fuel holocaust denial.
• His writing was quoted by many media outlets in the USA, Britain, and the Middle East, even after the FBI discredited his information as baseless suspicions without any evidence.

US Attorney Jeanine Ferris Pirro said, “These additional terrorism-related charges carry a mandatory life sentence under DC Code, while also reflecting the reality that this act was in fact an act of terror.”

Rodriquez was filmed on video calling out “Free Palestine” after he fired 20 shots from a semi-automatic handgun. So now it looks like he’ll spend the rest of his life in prison, if convicted.

Last year Israeli Embassy staff members Yaron Lischinsky and Sarah Lynn Milgrim were shot deat outside the Jewish Museum in Washington DC.  That was in May 2025.

One side says, “He’s abandoned the Iranian people to die in the streets!” Meanwhile the other side says “How would we really know what he’s up to when he’s made clear that his strategy is one of unpredictability?”

Two sides represented below, first by the Jerusalem Post editorial team, the second by Rabbi Pesach Wolicki:

What do you think?  How must we pray?

• Iran state media claims 3,117 deaths.
• HRANA confirmed over 6,800 as of early Feb.
• Iran International and Time magazine cited estimates around 30,000.
• Ramin Parsa, refugee from Iran, heard from hospital workers that it’s likely over 100,000 in reality.

All this time I’ve been mystified, hearing that in the Gaza cemetery where Ran Gvili’s body was found, news stated that his body was dressed in a police uniform. So I put that together with the hundreds of Palestinian fighters buried in the same spot – and that his body was hidden for 843 days there – did they dress his body up in a Gaza police uniform to conceal his identity or just to make things difficult? Or what?

Then I found this report:

“He was reportedly found in a body bag from Gaza’s Hamas-linked Shifa Hospital, still wearing his Israel Police uniform, shoes, and belt.”¹

OK – so that means the Gazans knew that he was Israeli and not Gazan – at least – if anyone was paying attention. Maybe not, during the chaos of the early days.

Here’s a bit more about his job, his life, and his broken shoulder:

“Gvili, who was laid to rest Tuesday in the military section of the Meitar cemetery, served in the elite Yasam Negev unit of the Israel Police’s Southern District. On October 7, despite having recently suffered a motorcycle accident and being scheduled for surgery on a broken shoulder, Gvili joined the fighting. He managed to save the lives of dozens of partygoers at the Re’im music festival before being killed and abducted near Kibbutz Alumim. He became known as “Rani, the protector of Alumim.”²

Nablus, the Roman name for the ancient Biblical city of Shechem, is where Joseph’s bones were buried after Israel transported them out of Egypt during the Pessach (Passover). Located just up the road from here in Shomron (Samaria), today, Shechem is an Arab Muslim city under the Palestinian Authority, and is one of the main sources of Islamic jihadist terrorism in Shomron.

Despite all this, Jews have been going there to pay their respects to Joseph, as well as to pray–monthly under great IDF military protection–but since 2000 in the Second Intifada, only at night.

That changed yesterday:

Ran Gvili’s body–the last hostage–has been returned as of Day 843, aka the 26th of January 2026. As such, Hostages Square in Tel Aviv held a closing ceremony, and the big digital clock went dark at 843 days, 12 hours, 6 minutes.

See below:

 

 

Let’s continue to pray for all the families of the hostages and their recovery, as well as for the surviving hostages.

The timing is very interesing indeed.

 

IDF Commander states that Hamas obstructed, rather than assisted, the recovery of the body, found in part thanks to intel from an Islamic Jihad fighter during interrogation in Israel.¹

Note how this fool uses the tired old “synagogue of satan” phrase from Revelation (2:9 & 3:9).

It ought to be obvious that one cannot build a dogma out of just one unique Bible passage.

In these two verses, part of the letters to the seven congregations, translators could have chosen less-charged words such as “congregation” or “assembly.”

That said, just because two first-century Turkish* congregations (Smyrna and Philadelphia) had some issue with some assembly of Satan or other, that certainly does not mean that ALL such congregations are affiliated with the enemy.  One has to be a special kind of sophomore to jump to that conclusion.

But this clown really thinks he’s right, and he believes he is honorable for being willing to pay the legal price for his hate.
