The world is drowning in a tsunami of lies, and the truth about Israel's stand against Iran is the first casualty. You are being told a story of Israeli recklessness, of American heroism, of disproportionate force. It is a comforting, simple, and utterly false narrative, carefully constructed to conceal a terrible truth: when civilization was on the brink, when a genocidal regime was moments from acquiring the tools of Armageddon, only Israel had the courage to act.

This is not a story with two equal sides. It is a battle between a nation that cherishes life and a death cult that exports terror. It's time to choose a side.

A Masterclass in Deception

Let’s start by dismantling the cynical fiction being peddled by the world’s media. They tell you the United States swept in to clean up Israel’s mess, that American diplomacy and airstrikes resolved a crisis Israel recklessly started. This is a lie, a face-saving fantasy for a Western world that has abdicated its responsibility for decades.

For years, the West pursued a failed policy of appeasement, showering the Ayatollahs’ regime with negotiations and sanctions relief, all while it spun its centrifuges faster and chanted ‘Death to Israel, Death to America’ louder. Israel acted because the diplomatic path was a dead end, a charade used by Tehran to buy time. The United States intervened not to stop Israel, but because Israel’s courageous action finally forced their hand, shattering the illusion that the Iranian threat could be managed with polite conversation.

They scream about the 71 casualties at Evin Prison, branding “Operation Am Kelavi” a failure of precision. How dare they? Let’s be clear: every innocent death is a tragedy. A tragedy engineered, orchestrated, and guaranteed by the Iranian regime. A regime that illegally embeds its highest-value military assets—the very leaders of the IRGC, the architects of global terror—inside and beside civilian infrastructure. They use their own people, and even political prisoners they despise, as human shields. The moral responsibility for those deaths lies squarely with the monsters in Tehran who made that cynical, cowardly choice, not with the soldiers who had the impossible task of surgically removing a cancerous tumor woven into healthy tissue.

And what of the dissident who claims the strike worsened his plight? It is heartbreaking, but it is also a testament to the regime’s depravity. It proves that this is a government so vile that it responds to an attack on its terror apparatus by doubling down on the torture of its own people. Israel offered a blow for freedom; the regime answered by tightening the shackles. Blaming the rescuer for the kidnapper’s cruelty is a grotesque inversion of morality.

This deliberate deception extends to Gaza. You are shown heartbreaking images from a hospital courtyard or a beachfront cafe, but you are not shown the Iranian-made rocket that came before it. You are not told that the terror groups firing those rockets are funded, trained, and directed by the same IRGC masterminds Israel targeted in Tehran. The media presents these tragedies in a vacuum, severing the cause from the effect. They want you to see an Israeli strike, but they work tirelessly to hide the Iranian fingerprints all over the weapon that made it necessary.

The Burden of Truth: The Patience of a Nation Staring into the Abyss

To understand why Israel acted, you must understand the years of restraint. This was not a rash decision. For decades, Israel has been the primary target of Iran's global terror network. Through proxies like Hezbollah in Lebanon and Hamas in Gaza, Iran has orchestrated a relentless war against our civilians, firing tens of thousands of rockets at our homes, schools, and cities.

We endured. We built world-leading missile defense systems. We issued warnings. We shared intelligence. We pleaded with the international community to recognize the existential threat posed by a regime that denies the Holocaust while simultaneously planning another. How we hoped the world would see. How we prayed for a coalition of the sane to rise and face this threat alongside us.

But the calls went unanswered. The world chose appeasement. It chose to believe the transparent lies of a regime that has never once honored a single agreement. So when our intelligence confirmed that Iran had reached the nuclear “point of no return”—that the dream of a nuclear-armed Ayatollah was days from reality—the time for patience was over. To wait any longer would not have been prudence; it would have been suicide. Israel, once again, had to stand alone to defend not just itself, but the entire free world from a nuclear nightmare.

The Unmistakable Moral Chasm

Look at the two sides in this conflict and dare to claim moral equivalence. On one side, you have Israel: a vibrant, raucous democracy where the government’s actions are fiercely debated in parliament, protested on the streets, and dissected by a free press. When extremists within our own society—the so-called “settler terrorists”—cross a line, they are condemned by our own leaders, from the opposition to the far-right. It is painful, it is shameful, but it is the sign of a healthy, self-critical society that strives for a moral high ground. Where is the equivalent condemnation from Tehran for the IRGC’s global campaign of murder? It does not exist, because the IRGC is the state.

On the other side, you have the Islamic Republic of Iran: a tyrannical theocracy that hangs dissidents from cranes, murders women for showing their hair, and whose entire foreign policy is based on spreading extremism, terror, and chaos. Israel targets senior military commanders and terror infrastructure. Iran indiscriminately fires heavy missiles into Israeli civilian centers. Israel acts to defend life. The Iranian regime acts to export its death cult.

There is no grey area between a firefighter and an arsonist. The world, through its lazy condemnations and cowardly divestments, is choosing to stand with the arsonist.

The Cold Logic of Survival

The critics, sitting in their safe newsrooms and university halls, call “Operation Am Kelavi” a reckless escalation. It is a breathtakingly foolish assessment. True recklessness is allowing a genocidal regime that publicly promises your annihilation to acquire the ultimate weapon. True recklessness is believing that such a regime can be reasoned with.

This operation was not an escalation; it was the prevention of a far greater catastrophe. By striking the head of the serpent—the IRGC’s command structure and its nuclear scientists—Israel paralyzed Iran’s ability to wage a wider war. We didn’t trigger a regional conflict; we prevented a nuclear one. We acted to restore a deterrence that had been eroded by years of Western weakness. A world without the IRGC’s leadership is a better, safer world for everyone, from a child in Tel Aviv to a dissident in Tehran.

Every article you read that condemns Israel, every pension fund that divests, every celebrity who chants slogans they don’t understand, emboldens the tyrants in Tehran. It tells them that the world’s moral compass is broken, and that they can continue their march toward Armageddon with impunity. Your silence is not neutrality; it is complicity.

The line has been drawn. It is not between Israel and its enemies. It is between those who defend civilization and those who appease its destroyers. It is between clarity and confusion, courage and cowardice, right and wrong.

What can you do?

• Share this truth. Do not let the lies stand unchallenged in your social media feeds or in your conversations. Be a voice for moral clarity.
• Demand action from your elected officials. Tell them to stop equivocating and to stand unequivocally with the region's only democracy against the world's leading state sponsor of terror.
• Do not be silent. Your voice is a weapon in the fight for civilization. The time to use it is now.
