Are you freaked out over US “Operation Epic Fury” in Iran? What about the rising gas prices? Or a terror attack by two men in NYC? The US Military is in a game changing battle. Let me use a story to give you hope: one that comes from a silly basketball game.
Last night, March 10, the Western College Championship basketball game was played in Las Vegas. We were cheering for the Gonzaga Bulldogs from Spokane, Washington. It looked bleak for the first half, as the players who normally win games seemed to malfunction. But the second half was another story altogether. The players came out of the locker room on fire. They passed the opposing team and never looked back. Was it a tough fight? Yes. The opposing team had outstanding scorers, but Gonzaga battled with their whole heart. And won. The point of this little detour? To remind everyone that no matter what you hear from left-wing media, or Iranian propaganda, or Democrat fools, the US is going to win. Period, end of story.
The left-wing media, Democrats, and liberals appear to be cheering for the Iranian regime. Never mind how many Iranian protesters – even women, and children were slaughtered in January 2026. Never mind how many US soldiers have been murdered or torn apart by Iranian bombs over the last 47 years. The US Military and the Israeli military together are a united game changer.
Here’s a list from John Tiegen, one of the heroes of Benghazi from 2012:
“1. Direct Attacks by Iran on U.S. Interests • 1979-1981: Iran Hostage Crisis – Seized U.S. Embassy in Tehran; 52 Americans held 444 days (1 died in rescue attempt). • 2019: Downed U.S. Drone – IRGC shot down RQ-4 Global Hawk over Strait of Hormuz. • 2020: Missile Strikes on U.S. Bases in Iraq – Fired missiles at Al-Asad & Erbil; 100+ troops injured (brain injuries). 2.

Other Threats (Verbal, Cyber, Economic) • Verbal: “Death to America” chants; bases as “legitimate targets.” • Cyber: Hacks on U.S. infrastructure; 2024 election interference. • Economic/Maritime: Threats to close Strait of Hormuz; ship harassment. • Homeland: Post-2026 strike warnings for U.S. soil attacks. 5. Americans Currently Detained in Iran (as of March 2026) • At least 4-6 held (mostly dual nationals on bogus charges like espionage). • Known: Reza Valizadeh (journalist, detained 2024); Kamran Hekmati (2025); 2-4 unnamed. • Historical: Nearly 100 detained since 1979; U.S. freed 175+ wrongfully detained globally since 2025.” John Tiegen
The US has come out of the “locker room” on absolute fire. They understood that Iran was planning a massive attack on US forces in the region. Within the opening moments, they destroyed the Iranian leadership. Within the first 12 days of the operation, the Iranian Navy, Air Force, command-and-control centers, including most of their missile and drone facilities have been neutralized.
Is this over? Not yet. It will be, as soon as we take down the opposition. It’s not a basketball game like last night, and real lives are at stake. But we have the best team on our side: The United States Military.
