Hugh Hewitt and Jean Case on 5 Principles for a Life of Breakthroughs and Purpose

For 47 years, the radical Islamist terrorists running Iran have conducted multiple acts of war against the United States. The regime abducted our diplomats in 1979 and kept them hostage for 444 days. Their proxy terror network Hezbollah killed more than 240 Marines in Beirut, and kidnapped Americans throughout the 1980s. Iran and its Shi’ite militias targeted and killed hundreds of Americans in Iraq while wounding thousands more.

This weekend, Donald Trump finally addressed this long war by responding to it with overwhelming force.

Some Americans wonder how this fits with Trump’s “America First” strategy—claiming Trump has gone to war to protect Israel.

Make no mistake: This fits America First. It puts American interests ahead of European appeasers that spent decades restraining the US from a proper response to Iran’s acts of war. It will fully re-establish America as the first among nations—the superpower that, once again, does not fear to protect its interests.

Ed Morrissey: Ending Iran's 47-Year War is America First

New York City mayor Zohran Mamdani recently attended prayers at an Islamic Center with documented ties to the Alavi Foundation, which the Justice Department has identified as an Iranian front organization.

While the mayor was there, an imam prayed for the Mahdi—a Messianic figure in Islamic eschatology—to kill all “infidels.”

The Constitution protects the free exercise of religion. But that does not require political leaders to legitimize rhetoric that casts fellow Americans as enemies of God—that ought to be killed.

At other recent events in Times Square, Islamic speakers have declared it: “We are a threat”—referring to themselves. This isn’t pluralism. It’s provocation.

America welcomes those who come here legally to embrace our way of life. But hostility to our faith, our freedom, and our fellow citizens can’t be normalized.

There is contemplation of war with Iran.  The truth is, Iran has been at war with us for decades. In 1979, Iran seized our embassy in Tehran and took 52 Americans hostage, holding them for over a year. Then—in 1983—Iran’s terrorist arm, Hezbollah, killed 17 American in Beirut. Later that year they killed another 241 in another bombing there.

In Spain in 1984, Hezbollah killed 18 Americans at a restaurant, and bombed the US Embassy in Beirut yet again, killing 11 more. In ’92, they bombed the Israeli Embassy in Buenos Aires, killing 29 innocents.  And another 85 they killed in Argentina two years later.  There’s TWA Flight 847 and Bobby Stetham’s public execution, and the 1996 bombing of the Khobar Towers killing 19 Americans.

On and on.

Now they seek nuclear weaponry and kill their own dissidents by the tens of thousands.

As Lincoln put it: We didn’t want war, but the war came.  Let’s not be wobbly over it.
