On April, 8th, 2026, President Trump announced a ceasefire with Iran which was initially supposed to last two weeks. Pakistan, working as the middleman introduced a framework for a ten point “peace agreement plan,” which has now, in various forms, been on the table for the past month. Up until now, all “negotiations” have failed, and while I strongly disagree with “negotiating” with terrorists, and make no mistake, Iran is the world’s leading state sponsor of terrorism, the “negotiations” have been pretty limited to President Trump telling Iran what to do, and Iran saying, “no.”

If we go back to the end of the first week of military operations, President Trump demanded “unconditional surrender” from Iran to halt US and Israeli air strikes, stating he would accept no deal otherwise. He asserted that Iran’s military was ineffective and called for the nation to “wave the white flag” To be crystal clear, while some Republicans are clinging to that statement and are expressing dismay that President Trump has seemingly backed away from it, “unconditional surrender” was never the reason for going to war with Iran, it was but a suggested off-ramp for the Iranian regime to bring the devastating bombardment to a halt quickly.

The Clock is Ticking…What Comes Next?

Op-ed / Commentary By: Craig Andresen and Diane Sori / Right Side Patriots 

On February 28th, 2026, President Donald Trump began what no U.S. President had the courage to do over the past 47 years – he began military action against the world’s leading state sponsor of terrorism, Iran. In concert with Israel, over the past two months, the radical Islamic regime’s military assets have been pounded into the dirt, pounded to the bottom of the sea, and eliminated from the air. The ranks of the regime’s leadership have been decimated, and their ability to continue striking Israel, their neighbors and U.S. forces has been severely weakened, but not completely eliminated.

Likewise, the Iranian regime’s ability to rearm, resupply and finance their proxy armies has also been severely damaged, but not completely eliminated, and the regime’s hold over the Strait of Hormuz,  which they rely upon for shipping oil, their primary source of income has slipped away and is now all but controlled by the U.S. and a naval blockade.

But this war is not over. Unless and until whatever remains of the Iranian regime has been driven out…out of power, out of Iran and/or permanently eliminated, the threat to Israel, the Middle East, Europe and indeed to the United States still exists.

Here is the problem – The War Powers Resolution.

North Korea’s Fate is in Kim Jong-un’s Hands

The question being bandied about on social media, as well as the mainstream media over the past few days is simple…should a preemptive strike be launched against North Korea?

Given the complexity of the issue itself, perhaps the question is, in fact, too simple.

In a recent Facebook comment to that very question, John Hawkins, the owner of Right Wing News, answered that simple question in what one would assume was a well thought out way by stating that, “Not unless we were very sure a nuclear attack was coming. Reason being…A conventional strike would lead to Seoul being leveled almost no matter what we do. A nuclear strike is a terrible post WW2 precedent to set, rains fallout on South Korea and China and could alarm China enough (are they nuking us or North Korea) to cause them to launch nukes. Our best options would be sanctions, blockades and working with China (which Trump is having some success doing) to get the Norks to get rid of their program.”

As I said, one would assume that to be a well thought out response, but assumptions are often, and in this case, most definitely wrong…and let me count the ways…
