Continuing from previous circle (28), wheels keep turning onto another personal circle relating to Iran:

Within Ask For The Nations – Psalm 2:8 my pre-blog email of 16 April 2011 circulated to friends, I recount the following astonishing dream vision of 7th January 1992 – NOTE repetition of “dominoes are falling” 34 years later!

‘The BBC late evening news on 6th January 1992 announced that leaders in the Muslim community wanted to establish a Muslim parliament in Britain…:

In a dream that night I saw Western Europe, mainly France and the Mediterranean, as if from the space shuttle and heard the popular worship chorus ‘All Hail The Lamb’ being sung, as if in the atmosphere! This praise was repeated many times most melodiously, as though by angelic choir ,and seemed to spiral upwards. Then I heard a very loud, authoritative voice declare, “As Communism fell, so too will Islam fall”.

I understood this as the Almighty’s declaration that Islam’s demise would come when Muslims themselves want to be free and rise up en-masse. Clearly, by referring to the events that had rippled across the Eastern Bloc to end the Soviet empire, we could expect a similar, unanticipated wave to sweep across Africa, the Middle East and Asia to the Pacific. It, too, would be like dominoes falling. In fact, some commentators are likening what’s happening now to that effect – Telegraph and Foreign Policy reports.’

First signs of changes occurred during the Arab Spring that began 16 years ago in Tunisia as a series of pro-democracy anti-government protests, uprisings, and armed rebellions that spread across much of the Arab world in the early 2010s. Sadly, it led to significant regional instability, with the Syrian civil war lasting over a decade and culminating in the fall of President Bashar al-Assad’s regime in December 2024 after a rebel offensive.

POST-SHABBAT WAR UPDATE: The Dominoes Are Falling

Even though many of the dramatic events unfolding right now have nothing to do with Israel on the surface, they are all deeply connected. We are watching a geopolitical earthquake, one that could reshape the Middle East and the world, and Israel sits at the center of it, whether the headlines admit it or not.

For the first time in decades, Iranians are flooding the streets in record numbers, openly challenging the Islamic regime. And something unprecedented is happening: the regime is hesitating. It is not unleashing the mass slaughter we have seen so many times before. Why? Because President Trump made it unmistakably clear that if the regime starts gunning down peaceful protesters, the United States would get involved.

That warning may have just stripped the regime of its greatest weapon against its own people, fear.

This could be the best chance yet to witness the collapse of the Islamic Republic, the liberation of the Iranian people, and even the potential fragmentation of Iran into its historic tribal and ethnic components. If that happens, the ripple effects would be massive. The engine that has fueled jihadist terror across the Middle East and the world for decades would finally be sputtering.

And then came Venezuela.

Trump’s decisive move, seizing the narco–prime minister to put him on trial in NYC for flooding America with drugs that killed Americans, sent shockwaves through the same global axis.

Venezuela is not some isolated socialist failure; it has long been the Western hemisphere ally of the tightly linked axis of Iran, China, and Russia.

A Venezuela on the road to freedom is a direct hit to that alliance.

And watch who rushed to condemn Trump for it.:
Britain. France. And other Western European governments were quick to denounce decisive action against a narco–terror regime.

Once again, they exposed exactly which side they stand on, not with freedom, not with victims, not with moral clarity, not against a global axis of terror and narco-terrorism, but with hollow process, appeasement, and moral paralysis.

With every such statement, Western European leaders make themselves more irrelevant to the real forces shaping the world.

Take the terror supporting regimes of Iran and Venezuela out of the equation, and suddenly the energy markets shift, returning to Western control, Iranian and Venezuelan leverage evaporates, and China and Russia are isolated, feeling pressure they have not faced in years.

This brings us back to Israel.

Israel continued striking Hezbollah targets in southern Lebanon over the weekend, while Trump’s deadline for the Lebanese government to disarm Hezbollah has come and gone.

Everyone knows the truth: the Lebanese government cannot disarm Hezbollah. The Shiite grip inside the government and the army makes that fantasy impossible. The question was never if Israel would have to finish the job in Southern Lebanon, but when.

With Iran weakened and distracted at home, that “when” becomes far more feasible.
Zoom out, and the pattern is impossible to ignore.

2026 is shaping up to be a year of expanding freedom, not because the world suddenly grew wiser, but because strong leadership returned. Trump and Netanyahu, each in his own arena, understand something the global elite refuses to grasp: evil retreats when it is confronted.

And none of this began in a vacuum.

It all started when Iran’s carefully decades-old planned, multi-front assault on Israel collapsed after Hamas decided to launch its October 7 attack alone, without coordinating with Iran. [RB emphasis]

What the Iranian-Qatari jihadi axis intended as Israel’s destruction became the catalyst for its own unraveling. Israel was finally forced to fight back, seriously, strategically, and in doing so, it exposed and weakened Iran’s entire proxy network across the region.

At the same time, it left Iran’s global partners more vulnerable than ever.

History has a way of turning arrogance into downfall.

Now the responsibility returns to us.

Israel must finish what it was forced to begin, restoring deterrence, eliminating existential threats, and ensuring that October 7 can never happen again.

That means decisive action in Gaza, Judea, and Samaria, paired with clear policies that remove all Hamas and Palestinian Authority jihadi infrastructures and incentives rather than managing them. Maybe Israel should do a middle of the night kidnapping of Mahmoud Abbas to put him on trial for all the money he has used to support the killing of Jews?

And after that, finally implement Trump’s emigration plan for Gaza, Judea and Samaria.

Moments like this do not come often. When they do, hesitation is a luxury we cannot afford.

The world is shifting. The axis of terror is cracking.

And if Israel stays clear-eyed and resolute, the future can be far safer, not just for us, but for millions who have lived under tyranny for far too long.

Am Yisrael Chai!!!
