Update (Day 969) Swords of Iron “The Hard Way”

The IRGC—the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps—continues to do what it does best: terror. 

This morning, Iran attacked Kuwait with missiles and drones. Unbelievable. U.S. Central Command confirmed strikes against Iranian aggression in areas including Qeshm Island and Kharg Island. Each side is claiming it responded to the other, but the truth is clear: Iran is the aggressor. It has always been the aggressor.

Iran claims it struck the U.S. base from which the American attack was launched, warning that any American action would be met with force. Shortly after, Kuwait announced it was dealing with a missile and drone attack. So who is escalating? Who is spreading war across the region? The answer is obvious.

Now Iran says it has ended all negotiations and contact with the United States. Does that mean we are heading back to full-scale war? We’ll see. But one thing is certain: Israel must step up, especially in the north.

In Beirut, certain areas in its Dahieh district have been ordered to evacuate after Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Israel Katz announced that Israel will strike Hezbollah strongholds there. In response to Hezbollah’s repeated ceasefire violations—its attacks on our cities, civilians, and soldiers—Israel is no longer playing games.

Hezbollah is not willing to surrender its weapons. They do not want to evacuate. They do not want peace. So if they choose the hard way, they will get the hard way.

This terror group continues firing on Israel while hiding behind Lebanon’s civilians and infrastructure. But Israel will defend its people. We will not allow our northern communities to live under rockets, drones, and fear.

The message is simple: terror will be confronted. Iran, Hezbollah, and every proxy threatening Israel and the free world must understand that the era of endless games is over. 

Deuteronomy 33:27–29 says Israel will dwell in safety, its enemies will be exposed as liars, and Israel will tread upon their high places.

That day is coming.
