It has been 72 hours since awakening Saturday morning and learning about the war in Iran; I immediately understood what was going on, and have been waiting patiently for people , in government or media, to connect the dots. Of the hundreds of politicians and media and “experts” weighing in, I’ve yet to hear anyone fully explain the brilliant grand strategy of Trump.

Though I’m guessing most of you guys figured this out…

First, huge thanks and praise need to go to Israel. They are proving to be our strongest ally and are fighting this war with us. Israel is putting its military and civilian population at GREAT risk. No other nation is willing to step up, including the weenies in the EU and NATO, even though those nations have all complained about Iran’s state-sponsored terrorism.

Second, Trump did not start this war! Iran has been in a state of war against us since 1979. Trump is finishing the war — something no other president or country has been willing to do.

Hardly anyone is willing to point out that this mess began with the peanut farmer president overthrowing a friendly government and installing radical Islamists in Iran. That same terrible president gave away the Panama Canal saddled the U.S. economy with 15% interest rates.

For years, I’ve listened to politicians and media personalities and experts complain about Iran, yet when Trump finally does something, they scream warmonger or completely forget the facts.

And the masks are falling off the fake MAGA people, including Tucker Carlson, Megyn Kelly, Steve Bannon, MTG, Thomas Massey, etc., as they display complete ignorance of the current geopolitical situation in the world. I have lost a ton of respect for these people and their ilk. They are claiming “this is Israel’s war” or “we are fighting for Israel,” completely forgetting about the history I just stated and ignoring the military reality that Israel is actually helping the U.S.

These same simpletons and scoffers (Proverbs describes four types of people: the simpleton, the scoffer, the fool, and the wise; only committed Christians are the wise.)
are screaming “Trump promised America first, this war is not America first!” How completely naïve and stupid!

This war is primarily about China! And it is absolutely America first.

The CCP is a wicked and demonic mafia that is trying to destroy the United States and has patiently been doing so for at least 25 years with the help of many people in the U.S. government. They are extending their power and influence around the world. Trump has put America first by methodically attacking China vulnerabilities.

First, it was closing the southern border, cutting off China’s revenue stream from money laundering for the cartels and selling precursors for deadly drugs.

Should Trump’s actions in Iran be viewed primarily as a strategy against China?

Next Trump took Venezuela away from China and the basically free oil Venezuela was providing, and eliminating the Chinese military troops stationed there, including the very real threat of short-range Chinese ballistic missiles in Venezuela.

Now Iran. A major oil supplier to China, plus a major arms purchaser from China. And a gateway to the west for China. Iran doesn’t need to build its own nuclear weapons; it can get them easily from China or North Korea when the time is right.

I urge you to study a map of the eastern hemisphere and observe the geographic location of Iran. It is a linchpin, positioned to either allow or block Chinese military maneuvers. China does not have a world power-projecting navy, so it needs to use land forces, and geopolitical conflict in the eastern hemisphere is primarily and historically about the control of land.

Plus, China is a continental power, like Russia, and plans and thinks in terms of continental strategy (the U.S. is primarily a maritime power), which is why the aforementioned expert/pundit/political class don’t understand what Trump is doing.

China’s “Belt and Road Initiative” is not about economic alliances but is instead a long-term military plan.

Trump is disrupting all that.

To a lesser extent, Trump is also dealing with Russia. Russia’s largest supplier of drones was Iran, and the two have been important economic trading partners since the Russian sanctions began over the Ukraine war.

Of equal importance is Trump’s humanitarian mission for the people of Iran.

Fred Markert, who has spoken a couple of times at Ziklag and is friends with Lance, Mark Williams, and me, has been operating missionaries in Iran for decades. He told me recently that 95% of the Iranian people hate their religious extremist government, and in fact the people love America and Israel. Remember: These are Persians, not Arabs. They have been horrendously persecuted for decades. Additionally, there are lots of Christians in the country, and Christianity is exploding.

Yet these fake MAGA people, fake Republicans and fake Christians (that includes Bannon, Tucker, Megyn … Jesus clearly outlined how we discern fake from real Christians) suddenly conveniently overlook all that evil.

Please pray for the people of Iran, the people of Israel, and President Trump.
