[This is the first of a four-part series in which Buzz relates his personal experiences serving our nation in uniform and his current observations about the state of our union and our world. In this series, we look at exactly what’s going on in Israel, Gaza, Iran, and the surrounding region from someone who’s spent much of his adult life serving there.]

The incredibly barbaric attacks on Israel over the past week have reconfirmed yet another undeniable truth. Despite what your corporate media will effort to tell you, the Middle East continues to be its traditional cesspool of Arab angst, failed ideologies, democratic failures, poverty, human rights denials, and a base where terrorism and bloodshed are routinely launched against the West. Looking back at decades of attacks on the US, Israel, and Western allies, the Middle East has not evolved much beyond the tribal conflicts over the thousands of years since Jesus Christ walked and talked. Despite a region that has untold riches with the oil revenues and the opulence that now is fully on display in Saudi Arabia, Qatar, the UAE, and Iran, the Middle East continues to be the epicenter of international terror, violence, false hope, and greed.

In my 20 years of service as a pilot in the United States Air Force, I spent many a day on duty in and out of the Middle East, whether in times of supposed peace or outright war. In all, I served in Egypt, Israel, Jordan, Turkey, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Yemen, Oman, Pakistan, and some places I shouldn’t really talk about. I’m left with my observations.

With the barbarism and savagery of Hamas and their attacks on innocent Israeli citizens last week, I’m reminded precisely why this region continues to be the world’s flashpoint. With the latest invasion of a sovereign Israel and the evil murder of concertgoers and babies by the terrorist group Hamas, I’m astonished at the lack of knowledge and intentional manipulation of facts on the part of many Americans, predominately leftists. I’m looking at you, American media, Muslim Brotherhood, AOC, Tlaib, Omar, Hollywood, and Harvard students, to name but a few. 

The ignorance and willful blindness to the history of the region, Israel’s founding, 75 years of attacks on their nation by neighboring Arab states fully intent on their extinction, the barbaric group that Hamas is, and Iran’s sinister involvement in all of this is mind-blowing. Yes, the Iran that seized an American embassy under Jimmy Carter; the Iran that birthed Hezbollah and the attacks on the US Marine Corps Barracks in Beirut in 1983: the Iran that underwrites, trains, and supports Hamas; the same Iran that Obama sent pallet loads of cash in unmarked jets to in the middle of the night; and the same Iran that Biden (Obama’s Mini-Me) recently bequeathed (the world’s largest state sponsor of terror) with another $6 billion. We are seeing a genocide, indeed, but it’s not of the so-called Palestinians, which the American Left continues to peddle, but of Jews. And it’s a coordinated crime against humanity. 

So, what’s going on here? Here we go:

The American left has crossed a line into disloyalty and subversive actions that undermine not only our national interests but those of our allies and fellow democracies. In this case, Israel. We especially see it in our universities, whose facilities are dominated by radicals who were birthed during the Vietnam War. We also see this subversion in our corporate media, which has become a critical tool for anti-American leftists and Islamofascists alike.

In this series, we’ll lay down the truth, the reality of the evil that prevails in the region, from someone who has lived it from the American military perspective. Specifically, I will provide you with the absolute truth about today’s conflict, exploring the foundations of the State of Israel, the true nature of the region referred to as “Palestine,” the reality of Hamas and Hezbollah, and the ultimate nexus that is Iran. We’ll also explore the complicity of the American Left and the upcoming brutal slog of a ground war in Gaza for Israel’s Defense Force.

We are potentially on the verge of a global war. Let’s understand why. Join me for this series. And let me hear your thoughts.
