Trump's response to Iranian Foreign Minister's vow to develop a nuclear weapon

THE HAGUE, Netherlands — Iran’s nuclear dreams got a reality check this weekend when U.S. military strikes turned their facilities into a garbage dump. But apparently, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi didn’t get the memo. He’s doubling down, insisting the terrorist regime will keep chasing its nuclear ambitions, uranium enrichment and all.

Fun Fact: the Compromised News Network reported with scant, unreliable evidence, that the nuclear sites were not severely destroyed and may be up and running in a matter of a few weeks. This was reported by the same lame so called journalist, Natasha Bertrand, along with the remainder of the three stooges, Katie Bo Lillis, and Zachary Cohen who did the anti-Trump bashing. It was Bertrand, and the puffy McStuffy Brian Stelter, who are famous for saying the Hunter Biden laptop was Russian disinformation; a veritable genius.

“Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said his country will not abandon its nuclear program and that it must now rethink how to protect its facilities after strikes by Israel and the U.S.,” Newsweek reported Wednesday. “The top Iranian diplomat said the attacks will have ‘serious and profound effects on the course of the nuclear program,’ adding: ‘We need to rethink how we protect our nuclear facilities.’” 

Good luck with that. First they'll need to find a way to clean up the mess and perhaps they'll have to deal with radiation in the area.

Enter President Donald Trump, who wasn’t in the mood for Araghchi’s bravado and bull at the NATO Summit on Wednesday. He shut it down, saying Iran’s not “building bombs” anytime soon because their nuclear sites are now a smoking crater.

“They’re not going to have a bomb and they’re not going to enrich...we won’t let that happen, militarily,” 'The Donald' said. “The last thing they want to do is enrich anything right now, they want to recover.” 

“We had a tremendous victory, tremendous hit,” he added, crowing about the B-2 bombers and Tomahawk missiles that rained down from a U.S. sub. “They’re not going to be building bombs for a long time.” Translation: Iran’s nuclear program just got sent back to the Stone Age, where their culture has been stuck since that time.

But in classic Trump fashion, he left the door cracked for a deal, noting, “They’ve got a country and they’ve got oil.” 

So, what’s it gonna be, Iran? Play ball or keep picking fights you can’t win?

Geert Wilders Blows Up Dutch Government Coalition

A year ago, Geert Wilders, the firebrand Dutch populist, stood triumphant after his Freedom Party’s electoral surge. He traded his shot at the premiership to cobble together a coalition, believing he’d aligned the stars to dismantle what he saw as the European Union’s ruinous edicts, in large part, its immigration mandates. 

In July 2024, a government including Wilders’ PVV took office, igniting hope across Europe that the progressive tide was receding. “The Netherlands’ new cabinet was sworn in Tuesday,” we were told, marking “the first time that Geert Wilders’ far-right party became a part of the Dutch government.” 

A hard-right shift, the sharpest in decades, promised to choke off migration and demand an opt-out from the EU’s border policies.

This wasn’t just a Dutch affair. Migration has become Europe’s obsession, fueling nationalist and far-right ascents from Paris to Berlin. Marine Le Pen’s National Rally stormed France’s first round of voting, only to be kneecapped in the second by the usual establishment maneuvers. 

Germany’s hard-right, despite soaring to second place in votes and public favor, faced similar sabotage. The pattern is clear: the people’s will, expressed at the ballot, is too often smothered by the elites’ machinations.

Wilders, undeterred, raged against the bureaucratic sclerosis stifling his promised revolution. His coalition scored one defiant victory, spitting in the eye of Brussels’ high priestess, Ursula von der Leyen. When she came peddling her multibillion-euro European defense fund, the Dutch parliament, by a razor-thin 73-71 vote, told her to find other fools to bankroll it. The motion, sparked by the right-wing JA21 and backed by three coalition parties plus the opposition Socialists, wasn’t binding, but it was a middle finger to the EU’s grandees. “The Netherlands’ parliament on Tuesday narrowly voted against a multibillion-euro European Union defense plan,” the reports noted, leaving von der Leyen’s scheme wobbling.

Yet, for all the bluster, the battle always circled back to immigration, the issue eroding the Dutch way of life. 

On Tuesday morning, Wilders detonated his own government over it, pulling his five PVV ministers from the coalition. “No signature for our asylum plans. No changes to the [coalition] agreement. PVV is leaving the coalition,” he declared on X, plunging The Hague into chaos. The government, a fragile alliance of Wilders’ PVV, the populist Farmer-Citizens Movement, the centrist New Social Contract, and the liberal VVD, had been teetering. 

Crisis talks collapsed when Wilders demanded immediate commitment to his “ten-point plan” on asylum, including a radical proposal to “close the borders to asylum-seekers.” His partners balked. “The PVV promised voters the strictest asylum policy ever,” Wilders told reporters, his voice taut with conviction. “I had no choice but to say: We rescind support for this Cabinet.”

And so, the Dutch experiment in defying the EU’s open-borders dogma lies in ruins, not for lack of will, but for the stubborn resistance of a system that bends only to break those who challenge it. Wilders’ gambit, like those of his populist kin across the continent, exposes the chasm between the voters’ cries and the elites’ intransigence. 

The fight, it seems, is far from over.

Climate protester self-gluers-to-masterpieces sentenced to prison

Self-important virtue signaling climate protesters who glued themselves to famous paintings have been sentenced to prison Wednesday. Each received two-month sentences, one of which was suspended, so they will only spend one month incarcerated for their stupidity. 

Onlookers looked on in shock and disbelief at the Mauritshuis Museum in The Hague last week as the bozos targeted the Johannes Vermeer painting "Girl with a Pearl Earring." One putz glued his empty head to the painting as his co-putz poured a can of tomato soup over his empty head. The second jerk then glued his own hand to a wall mounting. A third idiot videotaped the display.

The clown trio spoke to the onlookers in English: “How do you feel when you see something beautiful and priceless being apparently destroyed before your eyes? Do you feel outraged? Good. Where is that feeling when you see the planet being destroyed before our very eyes?”

Museum goers screamed "obscene" and "shame on you." That should have stopped them in their tracks, but these cretins stuck to the task at hand and seemed to desecrate the paintings, according to CNN. But one of the dickweeds said, “This painting is protected by glass, it’s just fine.”

“Vulnerable people in the Global South, they are not protected. The future of our children is not protected,” he said, anticipating that one day a woman would deign to have a child with him.

One of the three stooges is due to be sentenced Friday. Their identities were not revealed by the court. Prosecutors asked for 4-month sentences in prison for each but the judge said that she worried if that was imposed, other protestors might not protest other things to make themselves feel better than the rest of us.

Dutch cops shoot jihadi waving ax

The Hague, Netherlands -- A man waving an ax screaming "Allahu akbar!" and acting all jihad-ish as he stood on a balcony of a residential apartment was shot and wounded by local police.

Rotterdam police tweeted about the shooting early Wednesday afternoon in Schiedam. They tried to calm the Muslim man but he was on a religious mission in the jasmine of his mind.

When an arrest team entered the apartment, the jihadi tried to attack the cops and in the process, injured a police dog.

Police are investigating the man's background and motive--they have no idea why he would do such a crazy thing such as shouting "Allah is greater" in Arabic. What could it be?

This latest jihad incident comes just one day after another jihadi in Belgium attacked and killed two female police officers and fatally shot a passer-by.

Nobody has a clue what this is all about. It cannot be about religion, because we all know Islam is a religion of peace--just check their record.

Dutch vote to ban burqas, allow novelty nose, mustache eyeglasses

The Hague, Netherlands -- Dutch lawmakers on Wednesday fiercely debated a limited ban on face-covering head wear worn by what appears to be Muslim women but it really could go both ways. 

The purpose of the head wear is to provide modesty for women who can be married by the age of 6 and be forced to have sex with their husbands, who may have as many as four wives and can dress any way they want.

One lawmaker who requested anonymity suggested that women who want to remain modest and chaste wear novelty nose, mustache and eyeglasses in Groucho Marx style. "It hides one's identity and it's always good for a laugh or two," he said, still wishing to remain anonymous.

The ban proposal would outlaw the veils in public places such as schools, hospitals and public transportation. It would also make sense to ban them in banks, where they make perfect disguises.

Only a few hundred Muslim women in the Netherlands are made to wear concealing niqabs (full-face burqas) but successive governments have continue to seek banning the garments as is done in Belgium and France.

Interior Minister Ronald Plasterk said the current proposal wasn't as stringent as those two countries and called the legislation "religion-neutral." However, he conceded that the debate about burqas being worn on Dutch streets has played a major role in the proposal.

Plasterk said that in a free country such as the Netherlands, people should be allowed to cover their faces in public if they want to, but in government buildings and in health and education settings such as hospitals and schools, people need to be able to look each other in the face.

I go back to banks in my argument.

The vote date is not known as yet and if Parliament's lower house passes the legislation, it must also be approved by the Senate before becoming [sharia] law.

A small group of either men or women or both, wearing full-face niqabs, watched the debate from the public gallery. Judging from their expressions was impossible.

Jaques Monasch, an independent lawmaker, called the burqa "a symbol of oppression of women," and stone wash blue jeans and shorts "what Muslim men wear if they want."

Orthodox Muslim convicted of war crimes in Timbuktu

The Hague, Netherlands -- Ahmad Al Faqi Al Mahdi (aka "Al") is an orthodox Muslim who was found guilty of a war crime by overseeing the destruction of historic mausoleums in the Malian desert city of Timbuktu. The man with the not-so winning smile and Little Orphan Annie hair, was sentenced to only nine years in prison where he will be provided with a glove-handled Koran, prayer mat, Halal food and soccer pitch.

Ahmad, a former teacher, pled guilty and expressed remorse for his role in overseeing the destruction of nine mausoleums and a mosque door by ax-wielding rebels in June and July of 2012.

His trial began this August and was a landmark for the International Criminal Court since its establishment in 2002 and the first conviction for destruction of religious buildings and historic monuments. It was the first guilty verdict delivered against a Muslim extremist.

Al Qaeda-linked rebels occupied Saharan city of Timbuktu in 2012 and enforced a literal interpretation of sharia law which included destruction of idols, or in this case, the mud-brick tombs they considered idolatrous. Al Mahdi (his friends call him "Mad Al") was the leader of one of the "morality brigades" (which is perhaps the sickest oxymoron ever) set up by the new rulers of Timbuktu.

Wearing a plain gray suit and striped purple tie (the color most preferred by schizophrenics) Ahmad remained silent after the verdict and sentencing was given. Earlier in the trial, the Islamist urged Muslims around the world not to do what he had done. This is what Islam refers to as taqiyya, or lying for the promotion of Islam. He said of these acts that "They are not going to lead to any good for humanity."

Al Mahdi faced up to 30 years in prison for destroying the World Heritage-listed sites, but the presiding judge Raul Pangalangan bought into the taqiyya bull and claimed that many factors argued for a lesser sentence, such as Mahdi's apparently sincere admission of guilt.

I wonder how Raul would feel if Al Mahdi planned to live next door to him after he's free. Kind of like how Obama would feel if he had to live next door to illegal immigrants, I bet.
