Trump Draws The Line

There was a bit of a têe-à-tête between Israel, Iran, and the United States that broke out on Tuesday morning.

Here’s what happened. Just before the ceasefire went into place, Iran fired a barrage of ballistic missiles into Israel. One of those ballistic missiles struck an apartment building in Beersheba (Be’er Sheva), which is in the south of Israel. At least seven people were murdered, 86 more people wounded, because this is what Iran does: target civilians, including women and children. Conversely, Israel, just before the ceasefire, took out a bunch of IRGC leaders at their headquarters.

Then the time for the ceasefire came. Israel stopped; Iran did not.

Iran instead sent a couple of missiles into northern Israel after the ceasefire, because this is what they always do. It’s not a shock; when Israel essentially wiped out Hezbollah in southern Lebanon back in October of 2024, and a ceasefire was declared, Hezbollah attempted a few actions violating the ceasefire just to see if they could get away with it.

So that is what Iran did.

And Israel prepared to fire back.

President Trump then went on Truth Social, writing:

 

And then he had a rather heated exchange with a reporter talking about how upset he was that Israel and Iran were still firing at each other, essentially. He said:

They (Iran) violated it, but Israel violated it too. As soon as we made the deal, they came out and they dropped a load of bombs. The likes of which I’ve never seen before, the biggest load that we’ve seen. I’m not happy with Israel. You know, when I say, “Okay, now you have 12 hours,” you don’t go out in the first hour and just drop everything you have on them.

So I’m not happy with them. I’m not happy with Iran either, but I’m really unhappy if Israel is going out this morning because of one rocket that didn’t land that was shot, perhaps by mistake, that didn’t land. I’m not happy about that. You know what we have? We basically have two countries that have been fighting so long and so hard that they don’t know what the f*** they’re doing. You understand that? Okay.

Then President Trump walked away. There are a lot of people on every side who got very upset with President Trump about this. I am not, and the reason I am not is because I think that he’s attempting to enforce the ceasefire: end of story. That’s what this is. The president is saying, “Everybody, it’s weapons down. It’s weapons down.”

In fact, according to Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu’s office, this is actually how it ended up materializing:

The ceasefire was set to begin at 07:00 this morning. At 03:00, Israel forcefully attacked in the heart of Tehran, struck regime targets and eliminated hundreds of Basij and Iranian security forces personnel. Shortly before the ceasefire took effect, Iran launched a barrage of missiles, one of which took the lives of four of our Israeli civilians in Be’er Sheva. The ceasefire took effect at 07:00. At 07:06, Iran launched one missile at Israeli territory, and two additional missiles at 10:25. These missiles were either intercepted or fell in open areas, causing neither casualties nor damage.

In response to Iran’s violations, the Air Force destroyed a radar installation near Tehran. Pursuant to the conversation between President Trump and Prime Minister Netanyahu, Israel has refrained from additional attacks. In the conversation, President Trump expressed his great appreciation for Israel, which achieved all of its objectives in this war, as well as his confidence in the stability of the ceasefire.

President Trump was simply saying to all parties, “Stop it now. We’re done.”

By the way, I don’t think it’s bad for Israel that President Trump is seen controlling the issue, because what that says to Iran is that if it were not for President Trump telling the Israelis to stop, those bombs would still be falling on your head. So cut that crap out right now.

That is the way I think President Trump meant for it to be read. And I think that’s the way that it will be read by Iran.

In fact, President Trump then came out within a couple of hours and put it on Truth Social: “IRAN WILL NEVER REBUILD THEIR NUCLEAR FACILITIES.”

That came despite the fact that Tehran is openly vowing to restore its nuclear facilities. According to Iran’s nuclear chief, Mohammad Eslami, “The plan is to prevent interruptions in the process of production and services. Iran is assessing its damage to the nuclear industry following Israel’s intensive 12 Days campaign against it.” He also said that “arrangements are going to be made for its restoration.”

If President Trump identifies Iran rebuilding its nuclear facilities, he’s going to do something. And by the way, Israel will do something. They’re not going to sit idly by while Iran rebuilds any sort of nuclear capacity.

Here’s the bottom line: President Trump handled this situation better than any president of my lifetime. If you had told me at the beginning of this war that Israel would be able to do what it has done, that America, with effectively one B-2 sortie, would have been able to cripple Iran’s major nuclear facility at Fordow and also finish off Natanz and Esfahan in Iran — which, by the way, is what I suggested from the beginning of the war; that one B-2 flight is basically all that America would be required to do, and that would be it and then we’d get to the end of the war — I would have been stunned.

But it became true because President Trump lives in the world of reality. I can’t say this enough. He lives in the world of reality.

President Trump was never, ever going to get us into a nation-building project in Iran. For those who thought he would, have you met President Trump? Have you watched him for the last ten years?

What unbelievable lack of faith it showed in President Trump for people to suggest that Trump, of all people, was going to get us into World War III on a nation-building exercise in the Middle East.

Were they out of their damned minds?

Bruce Willis’ Daughter Fires Back After Critics Slam Her For Posting ‘Vulnerable’ Photos Of Dad

Tallulah Willis fired back after fans criticized her decision to post photos of her father, retired actor Bruce Willis, as he battles frontotemporal dementia (FTD).

Tallulah, the youngest of the three daughters the “Die Hard” actor shares with actress ex-wife Demi Moore, shared a series of photos via Instagram — several of which included her father — as they shared a “Sunday Funday” with family.

Responding to Willis’ photos — which she captioned, “Sunday funday at Grams ! Grateful” — one fan suggested that perhaps she should not share photos of her father as he continues to struggle with his health.

“I don’t think you should expose your dad to the public! He is vulnerable! And some things should be kept private! You don’t have his permission to post it!” the comment read.

“Hi. I hear that. As a family we use our discretion when posting. Today was a great day filled with smiles,” Tallulah responded to the comment directly. “I made the judgment call to show that to the world, because I know what he means to everyone.”

The majority of the comments were positive, however, and many shared personal stories of their own loved ones who had suffered from dementia or other similar conditions. Most defended Willis in her decision to celebrate and share the good moments whenever they came, saying that it was clear from the photos that he was surrounded by family and well-loved.

The beloved action star left Hollywood abruptly in 2022, publicly sharing a diagnosis of aphasia. Several months later, his family revealed that he’ been diagnosed with frontotemporal dementia.

“FTD is a cruel disease that many of us have never heard of and can strike anyone,” the family’s statement read. “For people under 60, FTD is the most common form of dementia, and because getting the diagnosis can take years, FTD is likely much more prevalent than we know. Today there are no treatments for the disease, a reality that we hope can change in the years ahead. As Bruce’s condition advances, we hope that any media attention can be focused on shining a light on this disease that needs far more awareness and research.”
