All hell is breaking loose as Donald Trump and Benjamin Netanyahu's war against Iran is now backfiring. Iran is now retaliating against the United States and Israel's preemptive strikes, and it's bigger than expected. Now, Iran has officially acknowledged the death of Ayatollah Khomeini, and they have stated that they will be exacting a vengeance on anybody who was responsible for the preemptive attack bigger than they ever have before. Specifically, a statement that comes from Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps is as follows. We will make sure we engage in the most massive and powerful offensive operation in the history of the Islamic Republic, which will begin shortly against Israel and US bases in the Middle East. In addition, Iran's Parliament Speaker, Mohamed Bahir Khalhabef, on Sunday, called the leaders of the United States and Israel, Filthy criminals who will face devastating blows for their ongoing attacks on the Islamic Republic. You have crossed our red line and must pay the price. We will deliver such devastating blows that you yourselves will be driven to beg. Now, that follows a social media post that Donald Trump made, where he said, Now that we've engaged in these preemptive strikes against Iran, hopefully the Iran Revolutionary Guard will join with others, and they will take take control of Iran, and they will support Donald Trump and Netanyahu.
The response to that seems to be, No, that's not happening. This is what Donald Trump's top generals and admirals and CIA, and top intelligence specialists were warning Donald Trump about. Donald Trump posted late last night, Iran just stated that they are going to hit very hard today, harder than they have ever hit before. Then Donald Trump in all caps, writes, They better not do that, however, because if they do, we will hit them with a force that has never been seen before. Thank you for your attention to this matter, Donald J. Trump. I want to show you what is going on right now in Iran, as there have been massive protests all day. Now, let's be clear. There have been some protests US out there and some people taking to the street who, of course, have been thankful and grateful that the Ayatollah has been killed. Authoritarian repressive regime. We've seen some of that. But a lot of the images that we're seeing now are these massive, massive rallies that are part of this 40 Days of Mourning, where in Iran, in these city centers and squares, it looks like there are hundreds of thousands of people who are chanting death to America, death to America, and they are demanding vengeance.
That's what's happening in Iran. I'm just giving you the facts, folks, about what's actually happening trying to cut through the propaganda and just give you the facts. In Isfahan right now, here are... Just look how many people are in this city square demanding vengeance. Here, play this clip right here. I will show you some other angles as well. Here you'll see pro-government rallies where people are chanting death to America outside. Let's play this one. Here is another view. Let's play this clip right here. Here is another pro-government rally at the Imam Reza Shrine in Mahshad, Iran, protesting the US Israeli strikes. The Associated Press reported and filmed matching crowds chanting, Death to America, at other state-backed events in Tehran as well. Let's play this clip of what was going on there so you can see it for yourself.
Now, I want to go through what's going on throughout the Middle East.
As Iran stated, it would be retaliating against US bases and US presence in other neighboring countries, whether that's the United Arab Emirates, Abu Dhabi and Dubai, whether it's Qatar, in Doha, whether it is Bahrain, whether it is Saudi Arabia, whether it is Iraq, wherever there is a US President in Kuwait, in Kuwait City, in Jordan. Iran has been striking, and of course, Iran has been striking in Israel. We've seen some massive strikes take place in Tel Aviv as well. I want you to watch here an Iranian missile hit Dubai International Airport in the morning. You can see the smoke scene rising near the north end of the airfield right there. We'll show you some photos of it. Next, I'll show you the US Air Base at Airbill International Airport in Iraq, burning in the morning after an Iranian drone and missile attack. You can see the clouds of thick black smoke rise from an impact site at Airbal international airport in Northern Iraq. Hat tip to the open source intelligence, technical and defenders. They do a good job aggregating this stuff. Take a look right here. There appears to be a direct hit this morning in Doha, Qatar.
You can see these smoke clouds billowing there. Iranian strikes on hotel complexes in Manama, Bahrain. Bahrain has been getting hit over and over and over again. We've seen residential complexes that are known to be frequented and lived in by American soldiers being hit there. Large plumes of smoke are seen in Bahrain right there. Then let's zoom in on what's going on in Baghdad this morning as pro-Iran regime protesters attempted to breach the Green zone there, trying to get into the US Embassy in Baghdad.
We'll show you what that looked like here. Let's just show a little bit of that in Baghdad so they can see. Let's play that clip.
Next, we'll bring you to Pakistan, where protesters broke through the security barricades and entered the US consulate in Karachi, largest city there. The video footage you will see here shows with one demonstrator holding a brigade flag. Just look at that. The protests appear to be part of this anti-US demonstration wave in the region, but this is at the US Consulate in Karachi. Here, take a look right there..
. Reza, Reza, Reza, Reza, Reza, Reza. Going back to Dubai for a moment, you'll see here the Palms was struck, the Burj Al Arab Hotel was struck as well. You can see those images right there. Also, some of the early reports coming in out of Iran suggests that Ayatollah Khamani's son, Majdaba, is going to be named as the next Supreme Leader. There was this succession plan that was already being discussed. So Majdaba is believed, we'll see what happens, to be the next Ayatollah. It's being described that this will symbolize his father as a martyr who died waging a holy war against the West in the name of Imam Ali Ibn Abhi Talib. And Mujdaba is just as extreme, if not more extreme than his father. He was known for propping up people like Ahmadinejad as the President. He's also known for the brutal protest crackdowns that just took place where as many as 33 2,000 protesters may have been massacred. To the extent anybody thought that this was going to be some Kumbaya moment and that the Islamic Republic was just going to collapse and they were just going to take it and roll over and surrender.
The opposite seems to be taking place as we are looking at what's going on in the region. The latest YouGov poll, do you approve of the way Donald Trump is handling Iran? This was taken on February 28th. 50% of Americans disapprove, only 35% of Americans approve of the way that Donald Trump is handling everything that's going on in Iran. But according to Lindsay Graham, war monger, chicken Hawk, Lindsay Graham, he says, Look, if American soldiers are going to die in Iran, it's going to be great, he says, because you will die a noble death. For all the soldiers soldiers, for all the parents of soldiers. If you're worried that your kids or if you're worried you're going to die in the Middle East right now, according to MAGA, it's great because it's going to be noble. Your children will be martyrs, as That's basically what Lindsay Graham is saying, for the MAGA regime change plan. Here, play this quote.
And if we lose anybody in this operation, they will have died a noble death because they will have risked their lives and sacrificed their lives to make safer here at home.
Now, you will all recall that, I guess, Donald Trump and his regime, the Trump regime. I think we're first trying to tell us that what this was all about was trying to stop Iran enriching uranium. That was one of the things. Although they said back in June that all of the uranium was obliterated and it was mission accomplished. Remember Operation Midnight Hammer? What do they call them the one right now? Operation Epic Furie. I think the Epic Furie is how the American people feel about this despicable Trump regime, how Trump's MAGA supporters feel about the betroth, how all Americans feel When Donald Trump promised no wars, no regime change. Epic Furie is what the American people are feeling right now. But we should be calling this war on Iran Operation Epstein furie or the Jeffrey Epstein War. That's what we're calling it here at the Midas Touch Network, Operation Epstein furie or the Jeffrey Epstein War, because that's what this is all about as well. The Trump regime covering up Donald Trump's dark past, his connections to Epstein, All of the things that we're uncovering right now in those Epstein files, gastly, ghoulish, grotesque with Trump and 1,600 Pennsylvania, our White House at the center of that child sex trafficking cabal cover up that's taking place.
And then they have this wag the dog moment and go to war. And they say, what this is really about is regime change. That's what we want. This was all about regime change. It was never about uranium enrichment. This was about regime change. And let me be very clear. I just want to be very, very clear. I think that the Ayatollah is a despicable, disgusting, repressive regime. I pray for the people of Iran, and I hope that they can live one day in freedom and peace at At the same time, I don't want regime change wars here in the United States. If you're going to do regime change wars, you better explain to the American people what the hell is going on and why we should be engaged in regime change wars. We have so many damn problems taking place here in the United States as people are psychologically tortured, living paycheck to paycheck if they're lucky enough to get a paycheck as health care is being ripped away, as people can't afford rent and people can't afford homes, and people are suffering and can't afford anything here in the United States. And we're told, oh, the government doesn't have enough money, but the money and the taxes that are being collected are going towards regime change and cover up of child sex trafficking rings.
Are you absolutely kidding me right now? What the hell is going on? And so Donald Trump's social media posts, Oh, we're going to strike the hell out of you if you do all of this. What is that? The fact that Donald Trump was at a fundraiser all of yesterday, a MAGA fundraiser to raise money for himself, to raise money for MAGA, whatever the hell you're raising money for, and not speak to the American people and cancel all your public speaking engagements and not speak to the American people. What the hell is going on? While the Middle East is on fire, while this regime change appears to be backfiring based on all the data that I'm showing us right here, what in the world is going on? And all Donald Trump did was what? Two days ago, he posted that weird video of himself where he basically said the same thing that Lindsay Graham said, where Donald Trump's like, Yeah, lives may be lost. Soldiers may die, but that's just something that happens in war. Here, play this clip.
Seeks to kill. The lives of courageous American heroes may be lost, and we may have casualties that often happens in war. But we're doing this not for now. We're doing this for the future, and it is a noble mission. We pray for every service member as they selflessly risk their lives to ensure that Americans and our children will never be threatened by a nuclear-armed Iran.
You have all these MAGA people now who are trying to justify all of this. You have, for example, MAGA Republican Senator Rick Scott was on CNN, and Jake Tapper is like, Well, what do you say to all the MAGA people out there? The whole thing that you ran on was no regime change, no regime change. Now all you're What are you talking about is regime change. So what do you say to all of the MAGA people and America people in general? And then these MAGA Republican senators and congressmen were like, It's okay when Trump does it. When Trump does it, it's always good. Dear leader. Here, play this clip.
What would you say to a member of the MAGA Coalition who comes to you and says, Senator, this is not what I voted for. President Trump said he was going to end regime change wars. He was going military entanglements abroad. This is the exact opposite of what he said he was going to do. What would you tell that person?
Well, what this President wants to do is he doesn't want Forever Wars. He's against Forever Wars. If you look at what he's trying to do, he's trying to make the world a safer place. What he did by destroying their nuclear weapons last year, what he's doing with this was destroying their ability to produce missiles, he's making the world a better place. What he did in Venezuela, he's making the world a better place. So if you look at this, Trump, he wants peace. But we've had presidents appease, appease, coddle, and power ran for decades, and that's got to stop.
Or, for example, they had that MAGA Republican, vile influencer, Scott Jennings. Scott Jennings was asked, Well, what do you think about the fact that Marjorie Taylor-Green and Thomas Massey are criticizing what Donald Trump's doing. Then Jennings is like, Well, they're not really MAGA. They're not really Republican. Here, play this clip. This is not what we thought MAGA was supposed to be. Congressman Thomas Massey also writing, This is not America First. Do they have a point?
No, they don't have a point. I don't consider them to be actual Republicans, and I don't consider them to be part of the America First or MAGA movement, to be honest with you. They are basically Allied against Donald Trump on everything, whether foreign affairs or domestic policy. They've just become political enemies of the President of the United States, no matter what he does. That's unfortunate, but she quit, and he's about to lose in a primary in Kentucky. That'll be the end of that.
Well, that's where we're at right now, folks. Let me know what you think. I could show you so much more, but I think we got to take this all in. We've got to be very deliberative. We got to report on this in a very calm and just get the facts out there and follow the facts together. That's what we'll do here in the Midas Touch Network, okay? Hit subscribe.
