Netanyahu Sparks Outrage After Comparing Jesus Christ to Genghis Khan
In a moment that should alarm every believer across the world, Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu invoked the name of Jesus Christ in a comparison that should never have been made.

He is the Son of God, the Messiah, the Savior of mankind, the embodiment of truth, purity, sacrifice, and ete

According to reports circulating among U.S. policy circles and echoed by recent coverage, senior advisers believe President Trump is increasingly inclined to wind down major U.S. military operations sooner rather than later—potentially before Israeli Prime Minister Benjam

Allies in Name Only: America Must Never Forget Who Stood Aside
There was a time when the word “ally” meant something. It meant loyalty. It meant shared sacrifice. It meant standing shoulder to shoulder when evil threatened the free world. Today, that word has been hollowed out. For decades, the United States has carried the weight of global security on its back. American taxpayers have funded the backbone of NATO, ensuring Europe could rebuild, prosper, and sleep peacefully under the shield of American power. The United States has poured

Report: U.S. Intelligence Told Trump Iran’s New Supreme Leader May Be Gay

Intelligence sources told the Post t


Trump Calls on Allies to Share Responsibility for Securing the Strait of Hormuz
The Strait of Hormuz is not just another stretch of water. It is the beating artery of the global economy — a narrow corridor through which nearly one-fifth of the world’s oil supply flows. When Iran began choking that artery during the ongoing war, oil prices surged past $100 per barrel, sending shockwaves through global markets and threatening the energy security of the free world. And now President Donald Trump has done something Washington elites rarely do anymore: he tol

Opinion: Iran’s Hardline Leader Is Playing a Dangerous Game Against America
In the history of modern geopolitics, one fact has remained constant: the United States is the most powerful military force on Earth. Yet today, Iran’s new supreme leader is choosing confrontation instead of common sense.
