Cowards, Liars, And The Anti-American Alliance

There’s a coalition of people who are uniting to take down the United States.

These people are cowards, plus liars, plus people who despise America.

It’s a coalition of scavengers.

There are the cowards who mouth platitudes about how much they really didn’t like the Ayatollah, but then they spend their days talking about how the United States couldn’t and shouldn’t ever do anything about that.

There are the liars who literally craft stories out of nothing in order to undermine America.

And finally, there are the actual American haters who are often both cowards and liars, and really, really just despise America and her pursuit of our national interests in the world.

That coalition is now coming together, but it’s not going to win because President Trump is going to win this war.

Let’s start with the cowards. These are the people who pretend they didn’t like the Ayatollah very much, but they’re really, really upset when anyone takes action. So, for example, they’re really, really mad that international law — the precious gewgaw of the pseudo-intellectuals — has somehow been violated.

Yes. If we don’t have Myanmar’s approval of a military strike on the ayatollahs or China’s approval — and if there is one country we need approval from, it is China, currently oppressing a billion people — or Russia —which is currently engaged in an aggressive war of conquest in Ukraine while throwing dissenters out of random third-story balconies at hotels — we need Russia’s approval?

That’s international law. And if we don’t have their approval, the mullahs must remain immune.

Here is the pathetic Mark Carney of Canada:

The current conflict is another example of the failure of the international order. Despite decades of UN Security Council resolutions, the tireless work of the International Atomic Energy Agency, and the succession of sanctions and diplomatic frameworks. Iran’s nuclear threat remains. And now the United States and Israel have acted without engaging the United Nations or consulting allies, including Canada.

Who gives a sh*t? Really? You guys can’t even win a hockey match.

My favorite part of that is when Carney suggests the IAEA has been thwarted for decades, and U.N. resolutions have been ignored for decades, and now the United States and Israel won’t even go to the U.N.

He just said why those organizations are trash and do nothing. But oh, my gosh, we didn’t turn to Canada with its vast military prowess. Do we need to drop maple syrup on the Iranians?

New York City’s mayor, Zohran Mamdani, who has been happy to express support for terror supporters throughout his entire career, is now hiding behind international law as cover for his consistent opposition to Western strength.

Asked if Iran was “better off without the Ayatollah,” he answered:

I’ve said before that the Iranian government has engaged in systematic repression of its own people, even killing thousands of Iranians who were seeking to express the most basic forms of dissent earlier this year. It is a brutal government. And I’ve also said that while I may be a young mayor, I am old enough to remember the devastating consequences of our country pursuing a war with the intent of regime change in that very same region, not that many years ago.

The answer should be, “Yes.”

Even if you have questions about what comes next, the answer should be yes. Yes, Iran is better off without Ayatollah Khamenei. But according to Mamdani, the important thing is saying that the ayatollah is really bad — but the minute anybody does anything, that is so much worse. We have to make sure that Khamenei stays in place because, after all, “the Iraq war.”

This Iraq War syndrome nonsense that has been promoted by the Left and then the horseshoe Right together, that every war is Iraq, every single intervention is Iraq, is ahistorical and absurd and tripe.

In 2015-2016, candidate Donald Trump ran on the platform that the Iraq war was bad — which was a controversial opinion inside the Republican Party at the time. The idea that he is now going to engage in a new, long-lasting occupation — not the first three weeks of the Iraq War, where the United States kicked the living hell out of Saddam Hussein and ended his regime, but what came after that, is ludicrous.

By the way, the first three weeks of the Iraq War were, by every available metric, a win for the United States. It was what came after that became problematic.

The argument of the cowards and liars is that Trump is going to engage in Bush-style nation-building in Iran.

Then there are the cowards who slander Israel to somehow imply that Israel is the bad guy in the conflict between Israel and Iran.

Take Gavin Newsom, who is absolutely slimy. As I said before, the man takes more positions on politics than the Kama Sutra. This is the same guy who, in an interview with me, freely admitted that Israel had not committed genocide in Gaza. Last night, however, he went on with the “Pod Save America” bros, knowing he had to please their Israel-hating asses.

Thus, he immediately started talking about how Israel is an apartheid state.

False.

20% of the Israeli population is Arab Muslim. They’re on the Supreme Court. They are in the medical system. A huge percentage of Israeli doctors are Arab Muslims. They’re in every area of Israeli society.

How can it be apartheid for Israel to have delegated certain parts of land to, for example, the Palestinian Authority, a terror-supporting group?

But Gavin Newsom knows he has to mouth these platitudes to his far-Left friends if he wants the nomination, because the Democratic Party — as Senator John Fetterman said yesterday on my show — is moving dramatically away from Israel.

Here’s Gavin Newsom telling lies and being a coward, speaking of Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu.

He’s got his own domestic issues. He’s trying to stay out of jail. He’s got an election coming up. He’s potentially on the ropes. He’s got folks, the hard line, that want to annex the West or the West Bank. I mean, (Thomas) Friedman and others are talking about it, appropriate, sort of an apartheid state. They couldn’t even, I mean, we’re talking about regime change. For two years, they haven’t even been able to solve the Hamas question.

Asked about rethinking our military support for Israel. He replied, “It breaks my heart, because the current leadership in Israel is walking us down that path where I don’t think you have a choice. But that consideration, I mean to say this is in America’s interest at a time when affordability crisis levels, where you had an administration literally got elected, saying this is exactly the opposite of what they would ever consider doing. The fact that we are in this now regional war, all these proxies.”

He is a coward and a liar.

The fact of the matter is that blaming the attack on Iran on Benjamin Netanyahu, the prime minister, is a lie. There’s complete solidarity in Israel from Left to Right on what Israel is doing right now. From Yair Lapid, who is on the Left, to Naftali Bennett, the chief rival to Netanyahu, to Yair Golan on the far, far, far Left, everyone agrees on this.

But when you are a coward, and you’re afraid of your own party, you have to start lying.

And then there are the actual liars, the people making actual stories up out of nothing. Stories they know aren’t true, but they push them anyway. The catastrophists aren’t actually worried about World War III or a long-standing boots on the ground occupation, but try to lie to Americans that they are.

Thus, Senator Richard Blumenthal (D-CT), who has had his own shady history with the truth when it comes to his purported military service, said he’s worried that we’re going to put boots on the ground.

Does he mean that there might be special operators on the ground? Because if we’re talking about special operators on the ground, welcome to the real world, where the United States has special operators on the ground all over the world, everywhere from Asia to Africa and the Middle East.

But that’s not what he was implying. He was implying a gigantic airlift of hundreds of thousands of troops, a gigantic boots on the ground footprint. It’s a lie. It is untrue.

It’s astonishing to watch this while he is wearing the American flag/Ukraine flag pin on his lapel.

“I am more fearful than ever after this briefing that we may be putting boots on the ground, and that the troops from the United States may be necessary to accomplish the objectives that the administration seems to have, but I also am no more clear on what the priorities are going to be given this regime going forward,” he hyperventilated.

These are lies. It’s not true.

Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-MA), directly from the Native American reservation, from her teepee, says that there is no plan.

And she would know because, after all, she is a military leader and expert.

“I just left a classified briefing on Iran,” she huffed. “And here’s what I can say: It is so much worse than you thought. The Trump administration has no plan in Iran. This illegal war is based on lies and it was launched without any imminent threat to our nation. Donald Trump still hasn’t given us a single clear reason for this war, and he seems to have no plan for how to end it either. Like a lot of you, I am really angry. I am angry at what Donald Trump is doing, and I feel grief for those already killed in this unnecessary conflict. And I will keep doing everything I can to fight to end this war.” 

What a liar she is. What an absolute liar. President Trump hasn’t explained it? What’s been happening for the past 50 years?

This notion that no one knows why, that what has happened is some mystery out of the blue?

No one believes that.

The idea that there’s no plan here is horsesh*t. There is a plan here, and the military is laying it out, but the liars are going to lie.

Finally, there are the American haters. There are a lot of people who live in America who truly hate America.

There’s an easy way to tell who hates America.

If you call America a terrorist organization for killing one of the world’s most evil dictators, for example, I know you hate America.

If you say that the United States is the worst terror organization in the world, you don’t like America, period, because that is such an overt lie.

That is such a moral calumny that there can only be one explanation, and it is your deep and abiding hatred for America’s role in the world.

To make that argument, you have to deliberately obscure the difference between actual terrorists who deliberately seek to kill innocent people and nation states seeking to avoid civilian casualties, often while fighting those actual terrorists.

That is the point for people who hate America: To reduce America to the level of its enemies in order to uphold those enemies. 

You also hate America if you claim that the president of the United States is merely a tool of foreign interests without any evidence whatsoever. You are promoting lies directly mirroring those of the Iranian terrorist government, in direct contravention of truth and of the Trump administration’s own words.

President Trump was asked directly whether it was Israel that was leading him around. He fired back, “I might have forced their hand. You see, we were having negotiations with these lunatics, and it was my opinion that they were going to attack first. They were going to attack if we didn’t do it, they were going to attack first. I felt strongly about that. And we had great negotiators, great people, people that do this very successfully and have done it all their lives, very successful. And, based on the way the negotiation was going, I think they were going to attack first.”

Another game that the Coalition of Scavengers is playing here with regard to President Trump is that what he’s doing right now is wildly unpopular with the American people.

According to CBS News, 85% of Republicans support the president’s strikes on Iran.

According to Fox News, 84% of Republicans support the strikes on Iran.

According to The Washington Post, 81% of Republicans support the strike on Iran.

According to Reuters/Ipsos, 82% of Republicans support the strikes on Iran.

So, it doesn’t sound like much of a split inside the Republican Party.

Military households approve of the current action against Iran by a 20-point margin, 60-40. One of the great ironies of all the people on the Left and the horseshoe Right who claim to speak in the name of the military is that they very rarely actually talk to people who are in the military. The military is quite conservative and hawkish when it comes to actual effectuating of American foreign policy.

The lesson of all this?

Be a lion, not a scavenger.
