IRAN CONFUSION: The sheer number of rumors currently circulating is almost impossible to comprehend.

On the one hand, there are reports of alleged attempts by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps to seize complete control of Iran. Some even claim that President Masoud Pezeshkian and other ministers have already been arrested.

Other rumors suggest Iran is ready to return to the negotiating table on Monday.

Meanwhile, Trump has announced that several women accused of treason will not be executed after all, apparently following behind-the-scenes talks.

No matter who we talk to in Jerusalem, nobody really knows what's true right now. One thing is certain, though: the next few days will be interesting.

No, Israel did not target a journalist in southern Lebanon.

It struck a Hezbollah-linked convoy leaving a known Hezbollah facility after it crossed into a restricted zone and approached Israeli troops.

One of the members of that terrorist convoy was Amal Khalil, who worked for the Hezbollah mouthpiece Al-Akhbar.

Calling that “targeting journalists” is not reporting. It is narrative warfare.

Palestinians hurled stones at Israeli cars traveling in central Samaria. One Israeli civilian was wounded in the attack.

There was heated debate and raucous interruptions this morning in Jerusalem during a Supreme Court hearing on establishing a commission of inquiry into Oct. 7.

Many parents of Israelis killed in the Hamas massacres and of soldiers who fell in the subsequent war said that while the nation’s political leadership is at fault, the Supreme Court itself is also to blame after years of imposing procedural restrictions on the IDF.

“Everyone who touched October 7 will be investigated. This court has a part. You all need to be investigated,” said one bereaved father.

"Defies explanation"

Schneider Medical Center in central Israel was happy to announce today that a 7-year-old girl critically injured in an Iranian missile attack on Arad last month was released from the hospital today, whole and healthy.

Doctors worked around the clock to treat the girl, including a series of complex surgeries.

The girl's father stated: "We went through moments that defy explanation."

Our editor Aviel received a lot of pushback on his recent article dealing with the Israeli soldier who smashed a statue of Jesus in Lebanon.

Many readers, themselves devoted Christians, felt the soldier had done the right thing, since graven images of Jesus are seen as idols, prohibited by Scripture.

And that raised many more questions.

The Bible does not speak the language of modern religious freedom.

That is the uncomfortable truth.

What happens when ancient commands against idolatry collide with the legal and moral order of the modern state?

This is where faith, freedom, and responsibility become impossible to separate.

Trump has ordered the US Navy to start attacking any Iranian gunboats that attempt to hinder maritime traffic through the Strait of Hormuz.

American forces seize an Iranian oil tanker in the Indian Ocean.

Hezbollah fired several missiles at northern Israel this evening in direct violation of the ceasefire. All threats were intercepted.

Trump says the Oval meeting with representatives of Israel and Lebanon went well, and that the US will help Lebanon “protect itself from Hezbollah.”

Meanwhile, the ceasefire (ie. Israeli military action against Hezbollah) is extended by three weeks.

Trump was then irritated to hear from a Lebanese journalist that it is still a crime in Lebanon to communicate with Israelis.

Hezbollah is not the only problem.

Hezbollah the only thing preventing Israel-Lebanon peace

Israel and Lebanon would have peace if not for the presence of Hezbollah, a foreign-backed terrorist army dedicated to the Jewish state's destruction that effectively controls half of Lebanon's territory, exercises veto power over its government, and attacks its neighbors with relative impunity.

So long as Hezbollah's in the picture, what's the point of Israel-Lebanon talks?
