(End of the American Dream)—I have no idea why this isn’t getting more attention. Israeli tanks are literally rolling into southern Lebanon right now. When you send tanks in, you aren’t just conducting “localized raids”. A lot of people don’t seem to understand that this is it. The IDF has initiated a ground operation in southern Lebanon, and according to Hezbollah this means that there will be all-out war. In other words, we just crossed the point of no return. Interestingly, Donald Trump just told a crowd at a campaign rally in California that he was concerned that we could “end up in a world war” in the next few months…
U.S. Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump is worried that World War III could break out in the next four months due to the policies of the Democrats leading the US government.
“I actually worry about the next three months. I really do. I worry about the next three and a half four months will end up in a world war because of this, the people that we have [in government],” he said at a rally in the state of California.
The Biden administration has been making colossal mistake after colossal mistake in the Middle East.
Now the time for talk is over and Israeli tanks have entered southern Lebanon…
Israeli tanks have burst through the gates of a United Nations peacekeeper base in southern Lebanon, the UN confirmed today.
It comes after Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu demanded the UNIFL withdraw from combat zones and Hezbollah strongholds — and accused the UN of inadvertently ‘providing terrorists with human shields’.
In a statement addressed to U.N. Secretary General Antonio Guterres, Netanyahu said: ‘The time has come for you to withdraw UNIFIL from Hezbollah strongholds and from the combat zones.
Of course Hezbollah has been quite busy as well. On Saturday, Hezbollah fired missiles at four different Israeli military bases…
Hezbollah claimed it had destroyed four military bases in Israel today as it launched a blistering rocket attack across the southern border.
The Iranian-proxy group said it had hit bases in Al-Jarrah, Za’rit and bases in the Golan Heights after claiming to have pushed back advancing forces late Friday.
Its fighters were ‘targeting the explosives factory there with a salvo of… missiles’, the group said in a statement this morning.
Then on Sunday, a massive Hezbollah drone attack injured more than 60 people in northern Israel…
More than 60 people have been injured, several of them critically, in a drone attack in northern Israel, according to first responders.
There were no immediate official reports of deaths from the attack, but the high number of injuries reported makes the attack one of the bloodiest since the war started last October.
The news comes after Hezbollah said Sunday it had fired a swarm of attack drones on an Israeli “Golani” infantry training camp in Binyamina, south of Haifa. The Lebanon-based militant group said the attack was in response to Israeli strikes in Lebanon on Thursday that killed 22 people and injured 117, according to the Lebanese Ministry of Health.
Most Americans are not really paying much attention to this war yet.
And most Americans don’t seem to realize that we will be directly involved.
In fact, it is being reported that approximately 100 U.S. troops will be operating the THAAD air defense systems that are about to be sent to Israel…
On Saturday we were among the first outlets to report that the United States is preparing to deploy THAAD anti-ballistic missile systems in Israel, a major development which will put American troops directly in harm’s way (or… boots on the ground) amid the tense showdown with Iran.
The Pentagon in follow-up statements to the NY Times has confirmed the THAAD (Terminal High Altitude Area Defense) systems will be sent to Israel, and that about 100 American troops will operate them.
If Iran and Israel start lobbing thousands of missiles at one another, those troops will be very heavily involved in what is happening.
Israel has promised to respond to Iran’s recent missile attack, and that could unleash a chain of events that nobody will be able to control.
According to the Daily Mail, the Iranians are making some very alarming threats…
Iran has threatened to recalculate its nuclear weapons programme if Israel launches a revenge strike as Biden has insisted Tehran is not building nukes. Since Hamas’s October 7 attack last year on Israel triggered a wave of regional hostilities between Israeli forces and Hezbollah militants, officials in Tehran have warned the Islamic republic could change its nuclear doctrine if it faced an existential threat. But they have been deliberately vague about what that might entail.
Pretty soon, both sides will be forced to reveal all of their cards. And once that happens, everything will change.
Meanwhile, the Russians continue to gobble up more territory in eastern Ukraine…
Russian forces have seized control of another eastern Ukrainian settlement, Moscow said on Sunday, in what would be the latest in a string of gains in the Donetsk region if confirmed.
The Kremlin said on Sunday that its Center group of forces had captured the Donetsk village of Mykhailivka.
Several settlements in Ukraine bear the same name, and Russia’s Defense Ministry statement is likely referring to the village immediately east of Selydove, southeast of the strategic Ukrainian-held hub of Pokrovsk where Moscow has been concentrating its efforts.
The Russians clearly have the upper hand at this stage.
Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky desperately wants NATO to give him permission to use western missiles to strike targets deep inside Russia, and he is also accusing the Russians of using North Korean troops against him…
Zelensky’s comments came days after visiting several European capitals to press his case for more military and financial help in the war against invading Russian forces.
“We see an increasing alliance between Russia and regimes like in North Korea,” Zelensky said in his evening address.
“It is no longer just about transferring weapons. It is actually about the transfer of people from North Korea to the occupier’s military forces.
“Obviously, in such circumstances, our relations with our partners need to be developed. The frontline needs more support,” he said.
Both sides just continue to escalate matters, and I am entirely convinced that it is just a matter of time before the U.S. and Russia are directly fighting one another.
If our leaders had any sense, they would sit down at the negotiating table before things ever have a chance to reach that point.
Before I end this article, there is one more thing that I wanted to mention.
According to the Wall Street Journal, fleets of unidentified drones have been flying over U.S. military bases on the east coast…
U.S. Air Force Gen. Mark Kelly wasn’t sure what to make of reports that a suspicious fleet of unidentified aircraft had been flying over Langley Air Force Base on Virginia’s shoreline.
Kelly, a decorated senior commander at the base, got on a squadron rooftop to see for himself. He joined a handful of other officers responsible for a clutch of the nation’s most advanced jet fighters, including F-22 Raptors.
For several nights, military personnel had reported a mysterious breach of restricted airspace over a stretch of land that has one of the largest concentrations of national-security facilities in the U.S. The show usually starts 45 minutes to an hour after sunset, another senior leader told Kelly.
The first drone arrived shortly. Kelly, a career fighter pilot, estimated it was roughly 20 feet long and flying at more than 100 miles an hour, at an altitude of roughly 3,000 to 4,000 feet. Other drones followed, one by one, sounding in the distance like a parade of lawn mowers.
I would very much encourage you to read that entire article, because it is absolutely stunning.
Our military has no idea where the drones are coming from, and they are not being allowed to shoot them down…
Officials didn’t know if the drone fleet, which numbered as many as a dozen or more over the following nights, belonged to clever hobbyists or hostile forces. Some suspected that Russia or China deployed them to test the response of American forces.
Federal law prohibits the military from shooting down drones near military bases in the U.S. unless they pose an imminent threat. Aerial snooping doesn’t qualify, though some lawmakers hope to give the military greater leeway.
If a fleet of unidentified aircraft is flying over highly sensitive military bases, you shoot them down.

I don’t even understand why there would be any debate.
My guess is that the drones are probably from either Russia or China. But if they are not from either Russia or China, that is probably an even more troubling scenario.
In any event, it has become clear that we are living at a time of wars and rumors of wars.
This war in the Middle East has escalated to an extremely dangerous level, the war in Ukraine is reaching a critical stage, and I believe that it won’t be too long before a conflict between the U.S. and China erupts.
World War I and World World War II both killed millions of people. World War III will kill billions of people, and it is right at the door.
