Hillbilly wisdom: No one wants to call international terrorism a war– a WAR is a declaration made by Congress. Consider the events of the the past 13 months- Bombing of Iran’s nuclear program June 2025; the invasion of Iran- February 2026; and the violations of the cease fire July 2026. The attempted assassination of president Trump July 2026 and upon whose information these events took place. Information is and will remain key to good decisions. In all the previously mentioned events PM Netanyahu coordinated with President Trump and the results were the same, Iran was attacked.

Mossad, Israel’s intelligence gathering agency is recognized as one of the best in the world. The CIA, America’s foreign intelligence agency is ranked equally high. One operates “by way of deception” and the other “lives and breathes deception”. Both are extremely good at infiltration of the enemies and proficient at eliminating targets behind enemy lines. They are both good at what they do. Each provides information directly to the leaders of their respective countries. Does the information gathered by the agencies accurately reflect the information the leaders share with others? Is it possible that Netanyahu might misrepresent information if it suited his needs over the needs of the United States.

President Trump, after consulting with CIA, could wrongly interpret the information received. The facts may be mistaken or deliberately skewed. Both leaders may be charged with war crimes when the Iranian war ends. Netanyahu has already been charged and Trump acts upon his own behalf when he refuses to go before Congress for approval of military actions in the Middle East.

Congress is back in session today. Don’t expect them to do anything about the war. They are not in charge.- Failure to enforce the war powers act is a deliberate “dereliction of Congressional duty”. *16 weeks until the midterms.
