 Operation Epic Disaster Leaves The Iran Regime Alive

Host And Founder Of ‘Now The End Begins’ Geoffrey Grider:
Operation Epic Disaster Leaves The Iran Regime Alive As Tehran Survives To Reload, Rebuild Its Terror Proxies And Prepare For The Next Round Of War Against Israel And The West

Iran did not need to conquer the military might of the Pentagon. Iran did not need to defeat Israel on the battlefield, and Iran did not need to march into Riyadh or sink the U.S. Navy. All Iran needed to do was survive. And if the regime survives, then Tehran has achieved the one strategic victory that matters most, the victory of time. Welcome to Operation Epic Disaster, otherwise known as the Obama Nuclear Deal 2.0. Has President Trump snatched defeat from the jaws of victory? That’s the question.

“They have said, Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation; that the name of Israel may be no more in remembrance.” Psalm 83:4 (KJV)

Back in March, the White House itself promoted Operation Epic Fury as a “peace through strength” campaign to “crush” the Iranian regime and end the nuclear threat, quoting allies who described Tehran as a terror regime responsible for killing Americans and oppressing its own people. But now, after more than three months of regional war, that very same regime is reportedly being left in place under a tentative U.S.-Iran agreement to extend the ceasefire and reopen the Strait of Hormuz. That is not victory. Not if winning is still the main metric of victory. That is a wounded serpent being allowed to crawl back into the rocks to reload, rebuild, rearm and reactivate. That is why this proposed deal is so dangerous.

A ceasefire with a defeated enemy is one thing. A ceasefire with an undefeated terror regime is something else entirely. It is not peace, it is a pause button, just as Obama’s 2015 Nulcear Deal with Iran only allowed them to get closer to a nuclear weapon. Trump’s Iran peace deal is not resolution, it is reload time. It is not the end of the war, it is the intermission before the next act. There’s a reason why Iran is mentioned in the Bible and the United States is not. Trump is preparing to send billions of dollars to Iran if this ‘peace deal’ go through, and that is bad, bad news on any level, and on every level. Today we bring you everything you need to know about what will possibly the worst deal America has ever struck with a foreign adversary.




Harbinger’s Daily
By Dean Dwyer: (Queensland, Australia) — When God created mankind, He also established a relationship amongst humanity which we would come to know as the parent-child relationship. Humanists would argue that this relationship exists largely for the purposes of reproduction but we know that this relationship extends far beyond biological processes.

God’s intention for the family unit was for parental authority to restrain the sin nature in the child as the child grows in the understanding of God and His commandments. As that process unfolded, the overall purpose in God’s design was for the child to draw closer to God through the teaching of their parents.

Throughout the Book of Deuteronomy, the emphasis is often on the next generation. In Deuteronomy 6:5 we read: “You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your strength.”

Then, in verse 7 we read: “You shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, when you walk by the way, when you lie down, and when you rise up.”

Consider also Proverbs 22:6: “Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it.”

In that proverb, the word “train” means to dedicate something. In this context, it impresses upon a parent the need to dedicate a child to God and prepare the child for future responsibilities and adulthood. In other words, they are not to bring up a child in the way they think he should go, but in the way God wants him to go.



Prophecy News Watch
By Zachary Patton/The Washington Stan: Time is officially running out for the crown jewel of America's safety net.

Recent projections have determined that the Social Security Old-Age and Survivors Insurance Trust Fund is steadily trending towards its insolvency deadline in 2032. If the clock does in fact run out and Congress stalls to act, federal law mandates an immediate 22% reduction in monthly benefits for nearly 70 million Americans.

The average middle-class retiree receives a single $1,900 check each month, meaning this looming statutory trigger represents an overnight loss of more than $400 a month, depleting crucial funds for groceries, utility bills, and prescription medications.

Touching the program has long been considered the "political third rail" in D.C. politics, so a bipartisan coalition has quietly formed and concocted an escape hatch: the Bipartisan Social Security Commission Act.

The new legislation would create an independent, 13-person committee that would handle establishing a comprehensive solvency plan behind closed doors, protecting lawmakers from the political fallout of making difficult, oftentimes unpopular choices alone.



Israel 365 News
By Joshua Wander: The irony is almost too obvious to ignore. Once again the Jewish people find themselves watching a debate over a deal with Persia. Once again enormous sums of money are involved. Once again influential advisers are assuring a ruler that the arrangement is beneficial. And once again Jews around the world are left wondering whether anyone has learned the lessons of Megillat Esther.

One of the most chilling verses in all of Tanach appears long before Haman’s decree is carried out. Seeking to convince King Achashverosh to support his plan, Haman makes an offer: “אִם־עַל־הַמֶּלֶךְ טוֹב יִכָּתֵב לְאַבְּדָם וַעֲשֶׂרֶת אֲלָפִים כִּכַּר־כֶסֶף אֶשְׁקוֹל עַל־יְדֵי עֹשֵׂי הַמְּלָאכָה לְהָבִיא אֶל־גִּנְזֵי הַמֶּלֶךְ.” “If it please the king, let it be written that they be destroyed, and I will weigh out ten thousand talents of silver into the hands of those who perform the work, to bring it into the king’s treasuries.” The brilliance of Haman’s proposal was not merely its evil intent. It was the way it was packaged. He presented his scheme as a practical arrangement that would benefit the king. There would be economic gain. There would be political advantages. There would be profit. All Achashverosh needed to do was sign on the dotted line.

Thousands of years later, the cast may have changed, but the script feels remarkably familiar. Today we hear of another deal with Persia. We are told that sanctions relief, economic concessions, and the release of massive financial resources will somehow bring stability and security. We are assured that this arrangement will benefit everyone involved. We are told that the risks are manageable and the rewards are substantial. Many of the same voices who once condemned the Obama Iran deal as a historic mistake now appear willing to entertain an agreement that may prove even more dangerous. The details may differ, but the underlying assumption remains the same: that the regime in Tehran can be managed through incentives, negotiations, and economic benefits.

By Daniel Greenfield: Barack Hussein Obama, the son of a foreign black father with no connection to the black community, is preparing to hijack the legacy of foundational black Americans one more time, by usurping the Juneteenth commemorations to launch his library/museum/ugly dark tower.

There was a good deal of controversy over what some people are calling the ‘Obamalisk’ because it hijacked an entire area just to glorify the Obamas. But Barack Obama argued that by using black contractors, he was ‘giving back to the community’.

Now the black contractors want to be paid and get their change after being stiffed.
Contractors on the Obama Presidential Center say their invoices are going unpaid, reportedly missing millions in payments and jeopardizing the future of businesses. The Obama Center has gone hundreds of millions over its original $300 million cost estimate. The 19-acre museum and library’s construction cost has ballooned over the years to a staggering $850 million, nearly tripling the projected budget.



Jihad Watch
By Robert Spencer: A previous report said anti-Jewish hate crimes were up 71% over a year ago. But the situation is rapidly worsening, as the report below explains. As Intifada on the Hudson documents, Mamdani’s antisemitism was known from the beginning of his political career. He has even said that he got into politics because of the “Palestinian” issue. He made no secret of his disdain for Israel and Jews throughout his campaign, particularly in his notorious refusal to condemn the phrase “Globalize the Intifada,” which is a thinly veiled call for the murder of Jewish civilians everywhere. So it’s no surprise in the slightest degree that his friends and supporters would be feeling emboldened, and acting accordingly.



The Economic Collapse
By Michael Snyder: When we were told that the ceasefire extension with Iran would include “the toll-free opening of the Strait of Hormuz”, I didn’t realize that this was only for a period of 60 days. As you will see below, once the 60 days are over the Iranians will be allowed to charge vessels for passing through the Strait of Hormuz on a permanent basis. Any vessels that attempt to pass through the Strait without permission will be subject to attack by the Iranian military. In other words, the nightmare scenario that we have been enduring for the past several months will be institutionalized. I am shocked that U.S. negotiators would actually agree to this. With the Iranians in control, I seriously doubt that the flow of oil and natural gas out of the region will return to pre-war levels any time soon, and any oil and natural gas that does get exported will cost quite a bit more thanks to the protection racket that the Iranians will be running.

This is so humiliating.

The one thing that U.S. negotiators were supposed to get from this first stage of negotiations was the permanent toll-free opening of the Strait of Hormuz.

But instead, they handed sovereignty over the Strait of Hormuz to Iran.
