The arrival of U.S. bombers in Israel sends a powerful message, that the Biden/Harris administration wants to prevent Iran from escalating the war against Israel, definitely before the elections. It’s a direct signal to Iran that any attempt to expand the battlefield or directly target Israel at this time will come at a high cost. Iran’s ambitions have pushed the region toward a boiling point, and now we’re seeing a true international stance against its threats. Unfortunately, this does not stop Iran’s genocidal agenda to destroy Israel, either directly or with its terror proxies across the region, or stop its nuclear buildup.

On the other hand, Israel’s capture of a Syrian citizen linked to Iran adds another layer of complexity. It highlights that Iran is already using Syrian territory as a launchpad, perhaps even preparing an insurgent network to destabilize Israel’s borders. For Iran, Syria is a crucial front in the larger strategy of regional dominance and encirclement of Israel, and this has potentially opened a new front—one Israel has anticipated but may need to address even more proactively now.

So, what’s the prognosis? No end in sight to this conflict, so long as Iran maintains the ability to act upon its agenda to destroy Israel. 

Even if the Biden/Harris administration succeeds in stopping the direct aggression now between the two countries, and succeeds in implementing a ceasefire in Lebanon, it just kicks the can down the road until the next round, allowing Iran to regroup for future direct attacks, and rebuild its terror proxy network and re-arm.

In the meantime, Israel's intelligence and defense forces have made it clear that they will continue preemptive actions to neutralize threats, and with the support of U.S. military assets, Israel can maintain pressure on Iranian interests, even if not enough to put a total stop to the Iranian threat. 

There is no denying that escalation is on the horizon, especially with Iran’s relentless aggression and its clear mission to destabilize the region and literally destroy Israel. But what happens next really depends on the outcome of the U.S. elections.

Will escalation continue between Iran and Israel? Absolutely—unless there’s a serious, coordinated effort to stop Iran from achieving nuclear weapons. Trump just reiterated it at a recent rally: we cannot, under any circumstances, allow Iran to go nuclear. This is not just about Israel; it’s about the stability of the entire Middle East and the security of the free world. A nuclear Iran would mean an emboldened terror regime, capable of threatening not just Israel but Europe, the United States, and beyond.

We’re talking about a regime that openly calls for the destruction of Israel and America and supports terror groups worldwide. That’s why it’s critical for anyone who cares about freedom and security to support Israel’s right to act, if necessary, to prevent Iran from becoming a nuclear-armed state. And if there’s not going to be solid support from the U.S. to help Israel with that mission, then there needs to be strong backing for efforts to bring about regime change in Iran. The Iranian people deserve freedom from this oppressive regime, and the world deserves an Iran that doesn’t export terror.

Regardless of who wins the U.S. election, this should be a non-negotiable goal: prevent a nuclear Iran. Whether through pressure, sanctions, or support for regime change, we need a serious global effort here. Israel will do what it has to, as it has always done, to protect its people. But with the support of its allies—especially the United States—we can ensure a safer, freer Middle East and a more stable world.

Iran’s regime is deeply invested in the ideology of Israel’s destruction and the destruction of the West. They’re not interested in peace or negotiations; their intent is clear. If United States foreign policy does not allow Israel to destroy Iran’s nuclear military buildup, Israel’s defense strategy, therefore, must focus on containment and deterrence, working to prevent Iran from ever achieving its goal, including the possibility of changing its regime to one that rejects the current leadership’s obsession with annihilating Israel and the West.

In short, this isn't a temporary flare-up. This is a larger regional showdown that has been simmering for years, and while Israel is committed to defending itself at any cost, the solution rests on the replacement of Iran’s extremist leadership.

In the end, the path to ending this conflict is clear: Israel needs strong support to dismantle Iran’s threats, not appeasement or half-measures. If we have an ally like Trump, Israel can confidently stand strong and push back, creating real, lasting deterrence. But if Harris wins, we’re bracing for a period where Israel may have to fight harder than ever—alone, if necessary, facing the harsh punitive punishments from the Harris/Waltz administration — in order to provide a secure future and ensure the safety for Israel and the whole freedom-loving world.

We’re praying for a future where our allies stand with us, helping us secure a true peace, built on strength and deterrence, for us all.
