A whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again. I don’t want that to happen, but it probably will. However, now that we have Complete and Total Regime Change, where different, smarter, and less radicalized minds prevail, maybe something revolutionarily wonderful can happen, WHO KNOWS? We will find out tonight, one of the most important moments in the long and complex history of the World. 47 years of extortion, corruption, and death, will finally end. God Bless the Great People of Iran! Posted on Trump’s “Truth Social”
BREAKING NEWS:
Attacks on Kharg Island: The US military attacked bunkers, radar positions, and ammunition depots, According to Fox News, bunkers and ammunition depots were also attacked on Kharg Island.
(Fox News)
Be much in prayer for the next 24 hours, it seems the Iranian leadership is destined for the 72 virgins, without a deal this may be the most deadly part of the war. I expect to see sine ground troop operations, always difficult and dangerous even in the best of conditions. God’s protection over our troops. 🙏🙏🇺🇸🇮🇱
After another bizarre episode of Tucker Carlson’s podcast in which he attacked the president for allegedly desecrating Easter – Trump responds in a conversation with the New York Post: “He calls me all the time; I don’t answer his calls. I don’t deal with him. I like to deal with smart people, not with fools.”
⚡ 48 HOURS IN HELL — THE RESCUE THAT DEFIED A NATION ⚡
There are missions that live in briefings… And then there are missions that become legend.
This was the latter.
A 48-hour window where time stopped meaning anything. Where survival came down to instinct, training, and sheer refusal to be captured. Where the line between life and death was measured in seconds, altitude, and silence.
🔥 APRIL 3 — IMPACT AT MACH SPEED
It starts violently.
An F-15E Strike Eagle, deep over southwestern Iran, is engaged. No warning long enough to react. No margin to escape.
A high-speed missile—estimated Mach 2.8—closes the distance. Not a direct hit. Worse.
💥 Proximity fuse detonation.
The blast tears through the airframe, shredding systems, ripping control authority apart. The jet is no longer a machine—it’s debris still moving forward.
Two men. One decision.
EJECT.
🪂 HOUR 0 — SEPARATION
Both crew punch out into hostile territory.
The pilot lands closer to friendly reach and is recovered quickly.
The Weapon Systems Officer (WSO)… drifts farther.
Alone. Silent. Invisible.
Enemy territory in every direction.
No support. No cover. No guarantee.
🌑 HOURS 1–12 — THE HUNT BEGINS
The moment boots hit the ground, the clock starts ticking.
The WSO moves immediately—no hesitation. Training takes over. Survival becomes rhythm.
But Iran reacts fast.
🚨 IRGC units deploy within hours. 🚨 Search grids expand. 🚨 Thousands of civilians mobilized.
This isn’t just a search.
It’s a manhunt across an entire region.
Every ridge, every road, every village becomes a risk.
The WSO doesn’t run randomly. He thinks, calculates, disappears.
⛰️ HOURS 12–24 — THE CLIMB
Fatigue sets in. Hydration drops. Adrenaline burns out.
Still… he climbs.
A brutal ascent to a 7,000-foot ridge—not for escape, but for survival.
Why climb?
Because elevation means:
Fewer patrol routes
Reduced civilian presence
Better observation
Harder capture
Below him, the situation escalates.
💣 US forces crater key roads to slow IRGC reinforcement. Every destroyed route buys minutes. Every minute keeps him free.
💥 HOURS 24–36 — THE COST RISES
Rescue operations intensify… and so does resistance.
An A-10 Warthog enters the fight—low, lethal, built for chaos.
But the sky is no longer safe.
🚀 Chinese MANPADS strike. The A-10 goes down.
Now it’s not one survivor.
It’s more.
And the risk multiplies.
Meanwhile:
🚁 Two HH-60W rescue helicopters are hit.
These are not just aircraft. They are lifelines.
And now even the lifelines are under fire.
🌌 HOURS 36–48 — THE NIGHT PUSH
There is only one option left:
🌑 Full-scale nighttime extraction.
No half-measures. No delays.
Everything moves under darkness:
Special operations teams
Rescue helicopters
Air cover layered above
The WSO holds position. No lights. No signals beyond what’s necessary.
Every sound could betray him. Every second could end it.
Then… movement.
Then… contact.
Then… confirmation.
🚁 APRIL 5 — EXTRACTION
In the early hours before dawn…
💬 “Package secured.”
The WSO is pulled out.
Alive.
Exhausted. Hunted. But unbroken.
🛡️ THE RESULT
Against overwhelming odds:
3 airmen
2 downed aircraft
48 hours behind enemy lines
➡️ All recovered. All alive. All out.
📊 THE BIGGER PICTURE
This wasn’t an isolated moment.
It unfolded within a wider conflict that has already seen:
✈️ 13,000 combat sorties flown
That number tells its own story— Of scale. Of intensity. Of a sky that never truly sleeps.
⚖️ WHAT THIS REALLY MEANS
This mission wasn’t just about rescue.
It was about:
Trust between crew and command
Precision under pressure
The unspoken promise: no one gets left behind
In modern warfare, technology matters. Speed matters. Firepower matters.
But in the end…
It still comes down to a single human being moving through darkness, choosing not to quit.
🔥 48 hours. One survivor. A nation searching. A team that refused to fail. 🔥
I am so proud to call myself an American. The strength and professionalism of our military is off the charts. God Bless the fighting men and women of our armed forces. God Bless the United States of America. Make America Godly Again!Rh
The disciples were scared, confused and uncertain of what would happen next. All in hiding, waiting, hoping, praying…..
A quick visit to the gravesite…where is He, was his body stolen?
“Early on the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene went to the tomb while it was still dark and saw that the stone had been taken away from the tomb. So she came running to Simon Peter and to the other disciple whom Jesus loved, and said to them, “They have taken the Lord out of the tomb, and we do not know where they have put Him.” So Peter came out with the other disciple and they went toward the tomb. They both ran together, and the other disciple outran Peter and came to the tomb first. Stooping down and looking in, he saw the linen cloths lying there. Yet he did not enter. Then Simon Peter came, following him, and went inside the tomb. He saw the linen cloths lying there, and the cloth that was around His head, not lying with the other linen cloths, but wrapped in a place by itself.”
John 20:1-7 MEV
If that same Spirit…….
It is the folded cloth neatly placed by itself that tells the rest of the story. Tradition tells us when a King or prominent person gets up from the table after a meal, if they plan on returning, they neatly fold the napkin and place it beside their plates. This act signifies that the person will return and to leave all the dishes and the cups on the table.
Jesus was giving us a prophetic look into the future that the Apostle Paul would lay out in detail in 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18 “But I do not want you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning those who have fallen asleep, lest you sorrow as others who have no hope. For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so God will bring with Him those who sleep in Jesus. For this we say to you by the word of the Lord, that we who are alive and remain until the coming of the Lord will by no means precede those who are asleep. For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus we shall always be with the Lord. Therefore comfort one another with these words.”
If that same Spirit….. “But if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, He who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit who dwells in you.”
Romans 8:11 NKJV
Our hope is in what is referred to as the “blessed hope”. Jesus signified He was coming back! Praise God! Whether we go by the grave or we are translated and fly away in the Rapture, either way we shall be with Him forever.
As Christians we live in a Good Friday type of world. You know a world where chaos, fears and evil things happen on a regular basis. Sometimes we as Christians ask why? Why do bad things happen to good people, especially Christians. The simple answer is, I don’t know. However the deeper and more relevant answer is that we live in a Friday type world. You know that type of day, sickness happens, jobs are lost, fears attack us, we long for peace but it escapes us. That is a Friday world, where sin is everywhere. When Adam sinned he brought an inherent sin nature that invaded every person’s DNA. Sin is a part of the “Friday World.” Prayers are offered, but the answer never comes. That is the kind of world we all live in.
We call it Good Friday because Jesus died for our sins, but the reality is there wasn’t much good about that day. The night before in the garden of Gethsemane, Jesus had made peace with His imminent death for you and I. After all, that is the reason for His incarnation and birth. As He stood before Pilate he carried the burdens of the world, literally. He bore our sins, each and everyone one of them. You see the Jews didn’t kill Him, the Romans didn’t kill Him. He died willingly for us. (I Corinthians 5:21) He who knew no sin, became sin for us.”That was the reason He came to earth. Jesus was born to die a substitutionary death for mankind. (John 3:16) “For God so loved the world that he gave His only begotten Son.”
Paul lived in that kind of “Friday world,” beatings, riots and fear of his life. He made a profound statement when he said if all we have is this world, we are most pitiful.
Our hope in Jesus gives us citizenship in Heaven. This isn’t my world, this isn’t my home, I have a home in Heaven. Bought and paid for by the most precious element on earth. The Blood of Jesus!
The devil saw my head down and he thought he won, until I said Amen!
There is division in America. That is a fact, no one can doubt that premise. However it is not by politics, but by sin. The division comes from two opposing world views. One is a Biblical worldview and the other is a secular humanist worldview. That is the red line in the sand. Neither side will give in. I will never compromise my Biblical Moral Worldview.
America has a rich tradition of being a nation built on traditional family values, Judeo-Christian values. God ordained us to spread the Gospel around the world and we did that by sending missionaries to far off distant counties. Our mandate came through a prophecy by Vicar Robert Hunt (1586-1608) the first Anglican chaplain of the Jamestown expedition and is renowned for a 1607 prayer and prophecy dedicating the new American land to God. Upon landing at Cape Henry, Hunt planted a seven-foot cross and “declared a covenant in the Gospel would go forth from that shore to the entire world”. Furthermore he stated “we should focus on the mandate to raise up Godly generations after us”.
I will say, we tried. The United States experienced three or four Great Spiritual Awakenings:
First Great Awakening (1730s–1740s): Led by figures like Jonathan Edwards and George Whitefield, this period focused on personal conviction, redemption, and a shift away from traditional, formal religion.
Second Great Awakening (1790s–1840s): Characterized by camp meetings and the rise of itinerant preachers like Charles Finney, it resulted in significant church growth and reform movements.
Third Great Awakening (1857–1859): Often called the “Businessmen’s Revival,” this movement began with prayer meetings in New York City during a financial crisis and spread nationwide.
Fourth Great Awakening (Late 1960s–early 1970s): Debated by some, this wave is often linked to the “Jesus Movement” and rapid growth in conservative denominations
What America needs is not a new or reformed political party, but another great Spiritual awakening. Our government as it is now is a corrupt “ruling class” entity that does whatever it desires. Two passages in the Bible give us an insight into how the Almighty looks at us. It’s not a pretty sight. One thing I know is that God is not mocked, we will reap what we sow.
1 Timothy1:9-10
“knowing this: that the law is not made for a righteous person, but for the lawless and insubordinate, for the ungodly and for sinners, for the unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers, for fornicators, for sodomites, for kidnappers, for liars, for perjurers, and if there is any other thing that is contrary to sound doctrine,”
Take a look again at some phrases:
murders; abortion and rage of violence
fornicators; our sex craved society
sodomites; the entire gender mafia
kidnappers; sex slaves
liars; our government hides and lies constantly
perjurers; truth has fallen in the street
Read Isaiah 59:1-10: hands defiled with blood, feet that run to evil, no justice, lack of truth, and our thoughts are continually on evil and iniquities.
We need an awakening, repentance and a turning from the evil that permeates our society. The division is caused not by political, but spiritual warfare that divides us more than even a civilian war based on political ideology. We need intercessors more than candidates. We need hungry hearts and souls that long after the Lord. Humility filled with a desire for the things of God. Turning from evil and pushing into the holy place where God resides.
Unfortunately the majority of the American church is living in a daze of the prosperity gospel, feeling they have need of nothing. Bills are paid, money in the bank, but all the while Jesus is knocking on the door of our hearts desiring a deeper relationship with His church.
We need the Ekklesia to become the remnant that pursues the holiness of God more than the pleasures of the world. Jesus is the only solution for a deprived world. He is our only hope. The world is on a downward path, the Bible tells us for a fact that a spirit of anti-christ will invade the last days. We are there now.
Let me be clear, I am not saying we shouldn’t be involved with politics. We most definitely should. We as Christian Conservatives vote our Biblical values. It is our duty and I believe a mandate from the Lord. Look through the slick commercials and line up your candidate with the Word of God. What I am saying is this…we need a “Great Awakening” to save this country.
Spiritual warfare is real and we must win the spiritual war first and then the awakening will come. Lord Jesus raise up holy intercessors in this time.. You were born for such a time as this.
Rubio was on Fox talking about NATO, state of the war and mostly Iran.
“This is a regime led by people who believe it is their calling and their purpose in life to usher in the end of the world.
Araghchi is a liar.
This guy was on television… denying that Iran had any missiles beyond a certain range — and then they fired two of them.
They were aiming to become the next North Korea — not a North Korea run by a regime that is troublesome and hard to understand, but an Iran run by radical Shia clerics with intercontinental missiles.
We can see the finish line. It’s not today or tomorrow, but it’s coming”.
This is interesting and a conversation worth having.
Secretary Rubio says “since NATO isn’t allowing the U.S. to use their bases then we have to ask, “Why are we in NATO?”
Rubio says the U.S. is “going to have to reexamine the value of NATO and that alliance for our country.”
IMO the elites thought they were on their way to a new world order just a couple of years ago. Not sure this is what they had in mind. Europe devastated and worthless, Europe-lite (Canada) worthless and a new Middle East without Iran as the bully with no teeth. Rubio is the rock star of this administration, and worthy of my apologies over concern about him. After living in Florida for 10 years, I never thought thought he was like this. Some people rise to the occasion, Rubio is acting Presidential, with strength but with some tact which is much needed in the White House. At the present time he is my pick and favorite to continue the freedom march the U.S. has begun under Trump. America is back, baby! Rh
Commentary below on what Trump might say tonight in his speech from the White House. From Amit Sega’s newsletter “It’s Noon In Israel”. Highly recommend you check him out, great updates from inside Israel.
Tonight at 9 p.m. ET, Donald Trump is set to deliver an “important update on Iran.” At 4 a.m. Israel time, most Israelis, including the leadership, will be away from their phones, either asleep or still celebrating the first night of Passover. When they eventually wake or finish the Passover meal and check their updates, I am certain they will not be blindsided by the announcement.
Most likely, Trump announces that despite the great victories already achieved, more is required to finish off the Islamic Republic. He confirms that he is still open to a diplomatic settlement, but nothing has manifested so far, and critical infrastructure remains a target. If so, that would suggest he is sticking to the original plan: another two to three weeks of strikes before transitioning to the protest phase.
Least likely, he announces a unilateral end to the war. The uranium is yet to be retrieved or more deeply buried beneath Isfahan; Kharg is still in Iranian hands, and the Strait of Hormuz remains closed. Any one of these facts would cast a shadow on Trump’s declaration of victory; all three make victory difficult to make out. Yet even if Trump chooses to declare victory regardless, Israel more broadly would be surprised, but the leadership would not. As a senior intelligence source told me last week, Israel is prepared for this outcome and still believes it can pull out a win if U.S. forces remain in the region during the protest phase.
Part of his speech will certainly be devoted to calming oil markets. Trump’s rhetoric may have a chaotic tone, but there is a clear rhythm to his comments, balancing between explosive threats and assurances that the war is almost over. So far, he has succeeded. If I had asked an expert at the outset of the war what prices would look like if barely any oil passed through the Strait of Hormuz for almost a month, $100 would be far from the estimate. Since markets are open for two more days, I would imagine Trump’s dovish side will be present tonight.
After 33 days of the closest cooperation in the histories of both countries, I think we can say with confidence that no matter how the media reacts to Trump’s comments tonight, Israel will not be surprised.
The military action we see now in the Middle East is not leading to the Ezekiel 38 war. That war is with Russia, Turkey, and Iran with other Muslim nations forming a coalition to attack Israel at a time of relative peace and security. This war is doing something no other military war or action has done. Realignment in the Gulf region.
Deterrents and consolidations. The US, along with Israel is taking its rightful place as the moral force to deter forces of evil. Iran has raged a proxy war on Israel for years, and on America for 47 years ever since the taking of the Embassy in Tehran. The radical Ayatollahs have spewed hatred and death to Israel and the US. Calling us both tools of Satan. That is the pot calling the kettle black
A shift is happening, MBS (Muhammad Bin Salim) Saudi Arabia’s crown prince has publicly called for Trump to not stop until Iran is defeated. UAE has espoused similar assertions. Terror proxies have been deterred, new alliances have been made and old partners are showing their cowardness. NATO may well be finished as Trump declares he is watching and taking notes. Trump made the statement recently that one European PM told him “this is not our war”, to which Trump replied “neither is Ukraine our war”. Point counter point. Russia is lurking.
War is chaotic and causes confusion, but it ultimately brings peace and realignment. Arab neighbors are forgetting old tribal grudges and looking toward a new stability and prosperity in the Gulf region. Netanyahu has been pushing the idea of a pipeline from Saudi Arabia across Israel to export oil, making piracy and closure of the Suez Canal and the Strait of Hormuz a mute point. Seems MBS may be ready to explore that plan. Funny how the enemy of your enemy becomes your friend. Arabs are finding out Israel is not the problem. With new alliances, comes new prosperity and that is good for the entire region.
Sometimes it takes a war to clear out the rats as they scurry to find protection. War is chaos. The military is designed to bring fury on the enemy, but the aftermath could, hopefully bring old combatants together. Let’s pray for that. God is able to bring change and new directions out of the fog of war aftermath. After all He created the world out of emptiness, nothing is impossible. Could this conflict bring about the peace and security that Israel craves and set the stage for Ezekiel 38??
IMO the next war in the Middle East will likely be the Ezekiel 38 war. The Russia, Turkey & Iran coalition will attempt to move on Israel as the world looks on and hopes for diplomatic means to end the next crisis in the Middle East. But this time it isn’t a nation, but Almighty God who crushes the Gog and Magog alliance with large hailstones from heaven! It all makes sense to me. Prophecy given, prophecy fulfilled. This conflict isn’t the big one, but most likely the next one will be Ezekiel 38.
Look up your redemption draws near. Maranatha! Rh
*Update* Spain, Italy, UK, France and Poland have told the US they will not be a part of any help when it comes to the conflict in Iran. Including the strait of Hormuz. NATO is falling apart right before our eyes. They seem very cocky for a bunch of cowards who run to America for help every time Putin sneezes in their direction. Rh
Well the Save Act did not even get a hearing. We all knew it wouldn’t. John Thune is a traitor to the United States of America! He and the other milquetoast immoral and bride ridden senators are worthless and in need of retirement. At best they hate Trump so bad they are willing to sell out the country. At worst they are traitors. They have never been conservative. He and McConnell are just what they seem to be, ruling class swamp creatures who care more about their stock portfolio than the good of the country. Are there any good senators in the senate? Sound off if there are, because allowing this to happen paints a broad brush across the entire Republican Party.
I know the worst decision that Trump made after his election was to say that Thune was a good man. I firmly believe that Trump could have stopped the election of Thune to Majority leader. From that decision forward I felt betrayed, knowing nothing would get passed through the Senate. I voted for Trump three times, but his endorsement and personal decisions rival a school girl crush on a bad boy. Nothing good comes from it. He just can’t help himself.
I am Christian Conservative and I am incensed at what is going on in the hallowed halls of the upper chamber. If the Save Act is not passed we will lose the midterms and Trump will be a lame duck for the remaining two years of his presidency. All the good we could do by making our elections safe, appointing conservative judges etc, will be lost. The swamp apparently has won.
Can it change, yes elect a new leader in the Senate, one that will at least push this and other legislation through to law. Two week vacation, give me a break. They need two weeks to shelter the money they got in bribes. Rh
To the casual observer of the conflict between the US, Israel and Iran it seems we are on the verge of destroying Iran and declaring total victory. In one sense that is a factual statement. On the other hand there are still outstanding objectives.
This is the third time I have seen a major escalation of the military in the Middle East. I remember Bush Sr. stopping troops on their way to Baghdad. Bush Jr. wanted to spread democracy in the Middle East. Air superiority is wonderful, but to really conquer a country in today’s stealth environment of terror proxies, it will probably take boots on the ground.
After being of draft age during Viet Nam, that statement of ground troops is chilling to me. Limited in and out scenarios work best for the American people, and let’s be real, all war and actions militarily need the support of the citizens back home. Every politician looks at polls and the ever changing attitudes of the American people.
With that being said I fully expect troops to be deployed over Kharg Island, and also possible in Isfahan where the supposed nuclear material was secretly stashed by Iran. Some at 60% enrichment, far above any civilian use. When you throw in the Strait of Hormuz, vitally important, these are the choke points that cause Iran to think they can hold out. remember as Trump has said, “they are great negotiators”. Their great negotiation positions come from not caring about their people and the willingness to sacrifice everything to hang on to power. Plus they lie and stall while waiting out their adversaries.
With all that said, we must finish the job or this happens again. Do what it takes to effect regime change and give the Iranians a chance at a real life. Ground troops are all that I foresee to be the answer. Holding Kharg Island and clearing the Strait, makes Iran’s ability to hang on dissipate quickly.
One final note: expect to see something dramatic, (ground troops?) after the present halt for negotiations. We aren’t ready yet to go in, but to me, knowing I am not a military expert or one who served, but one that follows the experts who analyze, it seems to be the likely scenario.
My prayer is that this can be done without boots on the ground and that negotiations would cause Iran to give up. Well the devil never gives up, neither does his allies. Iran is noted for their lying and the ability to camouflage their intentions. They are master negotiators only because the western mind doesn’t understand their tribal religious mindset. Western governments have aided and abetted Iran too long, including our previous Presidents. Obama and Biden left a total mess for Trump. Probably their intention.
We are at a tipping point. America’s future and the future of regional geopolitics in the Middle East rely on what happens next. I can’t wait to see how this all plays out. What a time to be alive.
We are “Living in Prophetic Times”. Pray for our troops and pray for the peace of Jerusalem. Maranatha! Rh
