An Israeli-US attack on Iran came yesterday, Shabbat night, two days before Purim. The signs are growing that Iran’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei “is no more,” Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says in a video statement to the Israeli public

The operation is not over, it is expected to last several days and aims to behead Iranian leadership, as the current Iranian regime is an existential danger to the Jewish state and to Jewish communities around the world. For the last half-century, the radical Iranian Islamic regime has shouted "Death to Israel" and has been the main actor in the Muslim Brotherhood's war effort to promote terrorist and antisemitic groups in multiple countries.

Purim begins on the night of Monday, March 2nd, commemorates the biblical story in the Book of Esther, set in the Achaemenid Persian Empire about 2,500 years ago. Haman, a senior official in the Persian court, plots to annihilate the Jews of the empire; Queen Esther intervenes; the decree is overturned; the Jewish population survives, and Haman is hanged with the gallows he had prepared for the leader of the Jewish community at the time.

It is within that landscape that the Purim's proximity gains significance. The current iranian regime does not in the least dignify the peaceful and cooperative relations that Jews and Persians have had for two and a half millennia. It was Esther and her uncle Mordechai who helped the Persian empire create prosperity in the multi-ethnic society of that time, and this occurred a thousand years before the birth of Muhammad and Islam.

The iranian regime also does not dignify the peaceful and cooperative relations that Jews and Muslims have generally enjoyed for a thousand and a half years, recalling the story of Rabbi Mukhayriq al-Nadir of Medina, who was a close friend and died fighting alongside the Prophet Muhammad (Battle of Uhud).

It was Cyrus the Great who freed the Jews from exile in Babylon, allowing them to return to Jerusalem and rebuild their Temple. Iran, under the rule of Shah Reza Pahlavi, had a friendly and strategically cooperative relationship with the Jewish state in trade, agriculture, defense, intelligence, oil, and so on.

As Nikolai Lenin (or rather, Vladimir Ilyich Ulyanov, or rather, Srul Blank ben Moses) said, “There are weeks that change decades”. The Muslim Brotherhood and world Socialism have had disastrous weeks in 2026 since the Israeli Prime Minister prophetically declared that something would have to change in the defense of American, African, European, and Eurasian Judeo-Christian civilization.

The Epstein files revealed the absolute decadence of Western elites, Latin American and gulf oil is now under greater American control to prevent the continued funding of the deviant elites who are the ideological support for the Brotherhood's work of destruction and who already deliberately confuse what is a man and what is a woman, and now the radical Islamist Iran will tend to succumb as the Brotherhood's main military support.

Russia will not defend its Persian ally, but its Israeli ally, while still respecting Orthodox Christianity and the Russian Jews of Moscow, New York, Tel Aviv, and Jerusalem. India will lament what happened today but will not blame its Israeli ally, whom Modi visited a few days ago. China will demonstrate its usual patience and continue to wait for the collective West to collapse. Perhaps this collapse is accelerating, but Israel will remain Asian, because it was located in Western Asia.

The Porto Holocaust Museum in the north of Portugal – which has already received 300,000 Portuguese teenagers in a country with no more than one million teenagers – does not narrate the Nazi Holocaust as something isolated in history, but rather as a result of the anti-Jewish massacres that have occurred throughout the world over two millennia. The indiscriminate killing, dismemberment and kidnapping of Jews of all ages was another chapter of anti-Jewish persecution that lasted for centuries in places as different as Alexandria, York, Odessa, Seville, Lisbon, Uman, Kishinev, Kielce, Hebron, and the Oct 7 massacre in the south of Israel.
