Turkey is taking a significant step toward joining the global military elite by testing a missile that would put much of Europe and the Middle East within reach and eventually lead to the launch of real-time intelligence satellites, according to people familiar with the plans.
The country showcased an intercontinental ballistic missile at an expo this week, joining the US, Russia and only a handful of other powers that have the weapons. Turkey’s ICBM has a range of 6,000 kilometers (3,750 miles) and the plan is to test fire it in Somalia later this year at the earliest, the people said, declining to be identified when talking about sensitive defense matters.
As I said earlier in another post, Turkey is the next big Muslim country to be wary of in the Middle East. Leadership of turkey has openly said, “we will dance around Jerusalem”, and they are not talking about in friendship, but in the defeat of Israel. This is a NATO country that is a thorn in the side of Israel. Ezekiel 38 talks of Iran, Turkey, and Russia leading a coalition against a peaceful Israel. It will happen. Be wary of Turkey. Rh
Reports that the U.S. and Iran are at the closest point to an agreement since the war began.
• The naval blockade by the US and Iran will be gradually lifted during the detailed negotiation period.
• The US will commit in the memorandum of understanding to gradually remove sanctions and release tens of billions of dollars from freezing.
• Negotiations are still ongoing regarding the duration of the uranium enrichment freeze. Three sources said the freeze will last at least 12 years, and one source estimated the final result will be 15 years. Additionally, the US wants to include a clause in the agreement stating that any Iranian violation regarding uranium enrichment will extend the freeze period.
• Two sources claimed that Iran will agree to remove the highly enriched uranium in its possession from the country.
• The United States expects to receive Iran’s response within the next 48 hours on several key points in the draft framework agreement.
Trump to PBS: Trump to PBS network: It is possible that we will reach a deal before my visit to China next week. There is a good chance to end the war with Iran. I don’t think I will send Witkoff and Kushner for talks.
More from Trump to PBS: The enriched uranium will be transferred to the US as part of the deal. Iran will not use underground facilities. If there is no agreement, we will bomb them to hell
IMO – it will never happen. Iran’s leadership is fractured. Hardliners only want delay, the more moderate faction does want some type of deal. What will Trump do? Who knows, Mr preference is take ‘em out. Rh
Update:
Bottom line:
Once again, the political level of the Islamic Republic is making promises to the Americans that the military level – which is de facto ruling the country – is not in agreement with.
Below is a powerful tribute to a roaring lion for the nation of Israel. Some love him, most hate or despise him. He and Trump, (IMO) are much alike. Raised for such a time as this, together they have proved a valiant and resolute pair of compatriots against the evils of the day in the Middle East, especially there firm conviction that Iran must be de-clawed. Never count either one out. Cheers and God’s best to them both. Rh
I well remember asking a new Israeli friend in 1996 how to pronounce the name of a rising politician, one running for prime minister of Israel against the old lion, Shimon Peres.
The new lion would do quite well for himself.
Benjamin Netanyahu, against all odds, beat Peres in 1996 and though he lost to the hapless Ehud Barak three years later, he re-emerged later to become Israel’s longest-serving PM.
(When I say “hapless,” I mean that Barak was as a politician. As a commander within the IDF’s elite counter-terrorism unit, Barak was truly elite. Israel’s fighters-turned-politicians often do maddening things once in office. Netanyahu himself has bucked that trend and has served with distinction.)
Netanyahu was hated from the beginning, although he’s always had a strong base within the Likud Party (somewhat akin to our Republicans). Raised on a strong diet of Zionism from Benzion and Cela, he and his brothers have been devoted lions for the state of Israel. I remember in Bibi’s book, A Durable Peace, he described a training maneuver that took his unit through the Negev Desert, emerging at Masada one night. Sweating, breathing hard as he looked at the ancient fortress, Netanyahu felt a real link to his ancestors. This is the essence of Zionism and has served him well as he navigated evil leaders like Arafat, Clinton, and all UN chiefs.
This week, I thought he got a nice tribute via X, as @liberallikudnik wrote:
“Begin grew old and weary and handed over all of Sinai to Egypt. Rabin grew old and weary and brought armed terrorists into the heart of the country. Sharon grew old and weary and turned Gaza into Judenrein and a terrorist state. Netanyahu in their age, a hero like a lion, full of vigor, building in Judea and Samaria, leading the IDF back to Gaza, to Lebanon and Syria, and eliminating the regime of evil in Iran. May he be healthy.”
True enough. Although I take exception to the partial description of Menachem Begin, a truly elite PM for Israel. As the winner of the premiership in 1977, leading Likud, Begin has arguably been Israel’s most religious prime minister. He was a great man. Yes, he tired at the end, but his mind and body were spent fighting as a Zionist. May his memory be a blessing.
I would say Yitzhak Rabin, as perhaps Israel’s least religious leader, made some fundamental diplomatic errors, yet. Sharon inexplicably emptied Gaza of Jews, but I suspect that had a lot to do with intense pressure from the George Bush gang. Among the weakest Israeli PMs—if you can call Naftali Bennett’s and Yair Lapid’s five minutes in office actual leaders—are those two, ideological foes that still came together in their hatred of Netanyahu.
New Israeli elections will emerge this fall and as usual, like clockwork, Netanyahu’s political obituary is being polished up as we speak. It can be added to the dozens more than have come before. It’s a bit like Oklahoma and Texas, or vice versa, not having a chance against the other in the Cotton Bowl. Then…the inevitable upset.
Benjamin Netanyahu has been criticized, heavily, by literally everyone. He has a polarizing personality, but I would argue not of his own making. I haven’t always liked his decisions, but everyone does that. I will go to my grave believing that he is much more the young man that sat around the family dinner table in the Old Katamon neighborhood in Jerusalem. As I’ve written before, I knew the old man the last decade he lived, and a couple times walked a few blocks over to gaze on the sublime scene of Jerusalem’s Old City in the moonlight. My wonderful conversations with Benzion make it clear to me all three Netanyahu boys will take Zion into their hearts for the duration. All three served in the same unit, Sayeret Matkal.
At present, there is no one fit to tie Netanyahu’s shoelaces among their political echelon.
The scene at Ben Gurion Airport on April 23 carried a significance that stretched far beyond a routine arrival. As 240 members of the Bnei Menashe community stepped onto Israeli soil, many wept, embraced relatives, and lifted prayers of thanksgiving. Their journey–from remote regions of northeastern India to the modern state of Israel–was not merely geographic. For many, it marked the culmination of generations of longing tied to identity, history, and faith.
This latest arrival, part of “Operation Wings of Dawn,” represents the beginning of a broader effort to bring thousands more from this community home. The Bnei Menashe trace their lineage to the biblical tribe of Manasseh, one of the “lost tribes” of ancient Israel. While scholars debate aspects of that claim, what is beyond dispute is their persistent preservation of Jewish customs across centuries and continents. Their Aliyah–the Hebrew term for immigration to Israel–reflects a powerful combination of cultural continuity and spiritual conviction.
Yet this story is not unfolding in isolation. It is part of a much larger and ongoing movement. Even amid the conflicts with Hamas, Hezbollah, and Iran, Jewish immigration to Israel has not slowed–it has, in some respects, intensified. Full article on Prophecynewswatch.com
“For I will take you from among the nations, gather you out of all countries, and bring you into your own land.”
Ezekiel 36:24 NKJV
As one noted Messianic Jew said, “in today’s world amid anti-Semitism, the safest place for a Jew is in the land of Israel”. I second that statement. Even during war and terror attacks being home for the people of Jewish faith is still something they long for. The government of Israel has been planning for months to handle the influx of Jews returning to Israel. The draw home is two fold in those desiring “Aliyah,” which is the Hebrew term for immigration to Israel. Most importantly it is the Almighty who is drawing them, second Israel is a safe place. Even amid chaos it’s always good to be home!. Rh
I am a supporter of Trump, however he just made the two biggest mistakes he will regret. With all his talk and bluster and egomania he portrays, he blinked. Israel was two weeks away from total victory in Gaza, ceasefire, Hamas is rebuilding as we speak, Never did lay down their arms. Still recruiting, the “Board of Peace” is a joke. Typical diplomacy.
Here we are in Iran, two weeks away from total victory, another pause. Iran now feels imbolden, they will hunker down and rebuild. China and Russia are more than ready to send all the weaponry they need.
Just minutes after the so-called halt to hostilities, Iran sent multiple missiles into Israel. Attack also in Saudi Arabia, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, and Kuwait.
It has begun, the re-supply:
China and Russia at the UN announced their intention to provide extensive aid to Iran within the next 24 hours, claiming that it is assistance for the country’s reconstruction and not for the arms industry.
However, according to reports in the Russian media, China has already sent 3 cargo ships carrying weapons, while Russian military aid planes are currently on their way to Isfahan. And military aid planes from Belarus are on their way to Tehran!
Trump’s 15 demands to Iran:
1. Dismantle all major nuclear facilities
2. End all uranium enrichment on Iranian soil
3. Transfer enriched uranium stockpiles out of Iran
4. Accept intrusive international inspections everywhere
5. Permanently renounce any nuclear weapons pathway
6. Suspend ballistic missile development
7. Stop production of long-range missiles
8. End drone transfers and military exports to proxies
9. Cut support to Hezbollah
10. Cut support to Hamas
11. Cut support to Iraqi Shiite militias and proxy groups
12. End weapons transfers to the Houthis
13. Fully reopen and secure the Strait of Hormuz
14. Stop threatening regional shipping and Gulf states
15. Accept a broader regional de-escalation framework, including limits on military escalation with Israel
Iran’s 10 demands to Trump:
1. A binding guarantee that the U.S. and its allies will not strike Iran again
2. A permanent end to hostilities, not just a temporary ceasefire
3. An end to Israeli strikes on Hezbollah in Lebanon
4. Full lifting of U.S. sanctions
5. Protection for Iran’s regional proxies and allied militias
6. Reopening the Strait of Hormuz under Iranian conditions
7. A transit fee reportedly around $2 million per ship, shared with Oman
8. Compensation or reconstruction support for war damage inside Iran
9. Recognition of Iran’s regional security interests
10. A broader framework for long-term negotiations without immediate surrender of core strategic capabilities

Insanity is expecting peace from radicals. If this is signed it just made the US a laughingstock in the world community.
This may be the last straw for me. Please let a grownup talk some sense into the President.
⚡ 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
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
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

HOLY SMOKES!! Sec. Marco Rubio just delivered a mic drop moment in the Cabinet room
“What I’m talking about is not the people of Iran. The people that run this country are RADICAL, SHIA CLERICS. These are religious FANATICS. Look what they are doing now at their WEAKEST point!”
“This is the weakest Iran has ever been, and look at what they’re doing. They’re attacking embassies. They’re attacking hotels. Imagine what these people would do if they had a nuclear weapon!”
“That is an unacceptable risk for the world. By the way, the president’s not just doing a favor to the United States and to our people. This is for the world!”
“He defined very clearly on the first night of this operation what the goal was. We were going to destroy Iran’s navy, and that is happening. We were going to, if it hasn’t already happened, I’ll let Pete speak to the specifics of it, we were going to destroy their missile launching capabilities.”
“We’re well on our way to achieving that goal. We were going to destroy the factory so they couldn’t make more missiles and more drones. And that is moving forward.”
“Every single objective the president clearly laid out on the first night of this operation is being effectuated.”
“For 47 YEARS, Iran has been killing Americans and attacking Americans across this planet. And other presidents had an opportunity to DO something about it, and they all warned about how Iran was dangerous, but they refused to act.”
“And THIS president’s not someone that’s going to refuse to act. He’s not going to leave a danger like this in place. He’s going to address it, and that is what he is doing.”
