We’ve been at this for forty-seven years.
Forty-seven years of broken promises, proxy wars, nuclear lies, and the same regime testing our will every single time we show the slightest hesitation. And now, here we are again in July 2026, hitting targets while the same voices tell us Iran is “desperate for a deal.” Really? They’re firing at our bases, attacking tankers, and enriching uranium while we’re supposedly in a ceasefire. That doesn’t look like desperation. That looks like the same game they’ve played since 1979.
I’ve said it from the beginning: unmistakable power and unapologetic strength is what actually works. Not this back-and-forth, not this calibrated response, not this “we’re tough but we’re reasonable” routine. That approach has only one result — it keeps the regime alive and our people in danger.
History is very clear on this. When Japan was beaten, they still didn’t want to surrender. Even after we dropped the atomic bombs, there were still hardliners ready to fight to the last man. We didn’t win by playing nice. We won by making the cost of continuing so unbearable that they had no choice but to stop. We carpet-bombed cities. We didn’t limit ourselves to “military targets” while the enemy hid among civilians. We understood something we’ve forgotten: when you’re fighting an ideological enemy that would rather die than give up, you either break their will completely or you prepare to fight them again later.
That’s exactly where we are with this Islamic Marxist theocracy in Iran.
The problem isn’t that we lack the power. The problem is we keep refusing to use it decisively. We tie one hand behind our back with slogans like “no boots on the ground” and “no forever wars,” while the enemy laughs and waits us out. They know our real strategy: hit them hard enough to look tough, then pause for talks. That’s not strategy. That’s whack-a-mole with American lives.
Here’s what we should actually do:
Take Kharg Island. Immediately. That one move starves the regime of the money that funds everything they do. No revenue, no proxies, no reconstitution of their nuclear program. We secure it, we control the exports, and we put the money into an escrow for the Persian people — not the mullahs.
Unleash Israel completely. They’ve been the only consistent ally in this fight. Give them everything they need with no restrictions and no public lectures.
Arm the Persians and the Kurds. The people who actually want this regime gone. Stop pretending the theocracy represents the Persian people. It doesn’t. Cyrus the Great freed the Jews. This regime murders its own women for showing their hair. We should be helping the people who want to reclaim their country, not negotiating with the people who hijacked it.
Hunt the leadership. Publicly. Loudly. Announce that the IRGC commanders and regime decision-makers are now targets, wherever they hide — hospitals, schools, residential areas, it doesn’t matter. They chose to use their own people as shields. That’s on them. We either go after them or we accept that they will keep using human shields forever.
And we stop with the nonsense about them being “desperate for a deal.” They’re not desperate for peace. They’re desperate for time. Every pause we give them is another opportunity to rebuild and come back stronger with help from Russia and China.
Look, I’m not calling for wanton slaughter of civilians. I’m calling for the same seriousness we showed in World War II when we actually wanted to win. Either we destroy this evil regime’s ability to threaten us, or we accept that we’ll be right back here in a few years — only next time it might be worse.
We didn’t start this fight. But we are the only ones who can end it. And ending it requires doing what evil actually understands: overwhelming, sustained, decisive force until they have nothing left to fight with.
No more managing the threat. Destroy it.
That’s the only way this ends without a mushroom cloud over one of our cities. And I’m tired of pretending otherwise.
Fall down nine, get up ten. But when it comes to evil, you don’t get back up at all. You stay down for good.
What say you?
