President Donald Trump has issued a statement in response to Iran’s retaliation following U.S. airstrikes on Iranian nuclear sites.

On Monday, Trump took to Truth Social to announce that the United States very effectively countered Iran’s attack on U.S. bases in Qatar and Iraq. He also thanked Iran for providing early warning of the strike, which he said helped ensure that no lives were lost.

“Iran has officially responded to our Obliteration of their Nuclear Facilities with a very weak response, which we expected, and have very effectively countered. There have been 14 missiles fired — 13 were knocked down, and 1 was “set free,” because it was headed in a nonthreatening direction. I am pleased to report that NO Americans were harmed, and hardly any damage was done. Most importantly, they’ve gotten it all out of their ‘system,’ and there will, hopefully, be no further HATE. I want to thank Iran for giving us early notice, which made it possible for no lives to be lost, and nobody to be injured.”

The president then wrote that he hopes there can now be peace in the region.

“Perhaps Iran can now proceed to Peace and Harmony in the Region, and I will enthusiastically encourage Israel to do the same. Thank you for your attention to this matter!” he continued.

Trump released a second post thanking Emir or Qatar for everything he has done to seek peace in the region.

“I’d like to thank the Highly Respected Emir of Qatar for all that he has done in seeking Peace for the Region. Regarding the attack today at the American Base in Qatar, I am pleased to report that, in addition to no Americans being killed or wounded, very importantly, there have also been no Qataris killed or wounded. Thank you for your attention to this matter!”

“CONGRATULATIONS WORLD, IT’S TIME FOR PEACE!” Trump concluded.

The DARK TRUTH about Iran’s regime

“We’ve seen this movie before,” Glenn Beck warns after President Trump bombed Iran. The last time Islamists attacked America, the country united to destroy them. So, Iran may want to think twice before retaliating. But will Iran care about the consequences? Glenn explains the dark truth about Iran: this isn’t a “Muslim” nation. It’s an evil, fascist regime.

Iran’s Crown Prince Reza Pahlavi Says a Transition Plan is in Place If/When Khamenei Falls What do the people of Iran want?

The Iranian regime is a scourge to its own people, to Israel and to the West, so to see it fall would be an occasion for celebration. According to Trump:

Iran was “a few weeks away” from developing a nuclear weapon before Israel launched strikes last week…adding that he now seeks “total and complete victory,” not a ceasefire.

But the question of what comes after is another matter. While regime change is not the same thing as nation-building, it is understandable why so many want the current regime to fall. In reading the plethora of reports circulating about the Iranian Islamic regime’s downfall, there is no certainty about what might replace the regime should it fall. One also needs to keep in mind that a majority of Western media has long become activist media, and given their anti-Israel bias, they lack credibility in reporting and analysis.

French President Emmanuel Macron also weighed in, but he is a leftist globalist who has shown little goodwill to Israel given the historic truth about its deadly enemies. Macron is not so fond of his own country, either, given his open-door immigration policies. He has not protected Western interests; also, he has a habit of calling for “ceasefire” whenever Israel justifiably and prudently retaliates against its enemies and is winning. He did ask one reasonable question, however, that highlights the uncertainty of the fall of the Iranian regime: “Does anyone think Iraq in 2003 or Libya a decade later were good ideas?” Although a valid point for discussion, every situation is different. Iraq and Libya were not nuclear states, and Iran is perhaps the only country where many of its people were celebrating Israeli attacks on their own country.

As Iran continues to grapple with political unrest and calls for reform, Reza Pahlavi, the crown prince of Iran, is an important figure in discussions and debate about the future of Iran. His role could become increasingly central as he provides needed insight, direction and even a possible future role for himself in an Iran free of its current regime. Not only has Netanyahu stated that Israeli attacks “pave the way for Iran regime change,” but Pahlavi is calling for regime collapse.

In 2013, Reza Pahlavi established the National Council of Iran in Paris, comprised of an exiled opposition group. He now lives in America, where he has long been an active voice for regime change in Iran for secularism, human rights and democracy. That vision is a solid one, which will certainly be backed by the dissidents of Iran, by Israel and the US, unlike in the cases of Libya and Iraq, where regime-change efforts lacked vision and a solid plan.

Well-known Iranian-Canadian human rights advocate Shabnam Assadolahi, who was arrested and imprisoned at age 16 for eighteen months in Iran’s most notorious prison, Evin, gave me a statement on Crown Prince Reza Pahlavi’s role in leading Iran’s transition:

Crown Prince Reza Pahlavi is a legitimate and unifying figure, widely recognized by Iranians—particularly those inside Iran—as the trusted leader to guide the country through the critical transition following the fall of the Islamic Republic’s occupying regime. For decades, millions of Iranians have upheld the memory and legacy of the Pahlavi era not only with nostalgia but with renewed calls for national revival, justice, and secular governance.

During nationwide uprisings, particularly in 2017, 2019, and 2022, powerful chants such as «رضاشاه، روحت شاد» (“Reza Shah, may your soul be blessed”) and «ولیعهد کجایی، به داد ما بیایی» (“Crown Prince, where are you? Come to our aid”) resounded across cities and villages alike—despite brutal repression. These are not empty slogans; they are a direct mandate from a people yearning for principled leadership and national sovereignty.

The Iranian people have called upon Crown Prince Reza Pahlavi to lead the transitional phase and prepare the country for a genuinely free, fair, and democratic election—one conducted without interference from the United Nations or any foreign entities whose historical involvement has either empowered theocratic tyranny or compromised Iran’s independence. The future of Iran must be decided by Iranians alone.

Crown Prince Reza Pahlavi has repeatedly emphasized his commitment to secular democracy, human rights, and unity across ethnic and religious lines, positioning himself as a transitional figurehead—not for personal power, but for the restoration of a democratic republic or constitutional monarchy, as freely chosen by the Iranian people.

Now, more than ever, as the occupying regime loses its grip, the people’s voice is clear: the path forward must be rooted in national dignity, historical continuity, and self-determination. Crown Prince Reza Pahlavi embodies these principles and stands ready to serve—not rule—the people of Iran in this historic transformation.

Meanwhile, Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth addressed speculation during a press briefing with Joint Chiefs Chairman General Dan Caine, that the recent U.S. airstrikes on Iran were not aimed at regime change. Hegseth says the operation was solely focused on neutralizing nuclear threats. The comments followed Trump’s announcement of “very successful” precision strikes on Iranian nuclear sites in Fordo, Natanz, and Esfahan.

America is the only country with the B-2 plane that is capable of carrying the “Massive Ordnance Penetrator” — with the ability to penetrate the mountain under which the Fordo centrifuge operation was hidden.

Ilhan Omar Hates America So why is she here? To destroy it.

[Want even more content from FPM? Sign up for FPM+ to unlock exclusive series, virtual town-halls with our authors, and more—now for just $3.99/month. Click here to sign up.]

Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Mogadishuis deeply disappointed in her adopted country, and of course it is all the fault of none other than Donald J. Trump. While virtually all leftists hate Trump with hysterical, lunatic intensity, Omar goes them all one better, and she is in the process of transforming Trump-hatred into a veritable new art form. Watch for her to get an NEA grant any minute now.

Omar has gone all the other Trump-haters one better by claiming that Orange Man Bad is not just a new Hitler who is destroying “our democracy” (the term leftists like to use to refer to their own hegemony), but that he is destroying the country itself, reducing it to the level of a third-world hellhole.

This is ironic for numerous reasons, not least of which is the fact that it was the Biden regime that Omar favored, not the Trump administration that Omar hates, that opened the southern border and brought in millions of migrants. Many of those migrants immediately became a drain on the economy. Others committed various crimes, some of which involved unspeakable atrocities. Meanwhile, their presence further weakened national unity and social cohesion. It was Omar’s friends and colleagues, her fellow leftist apparatchiks, who did far more to reduce the U.S. to third-world status than Trump ever did.

Nevertheless, The Hill reported Tuesday that Omar declared that Trump’s efforts to stop the Los Angeles riots, which were themselves dedicated to stopping his efforts to deport some of those illegal migrants, were turning the Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave into “one of the worst countries.”

Trump’s efforts to stop the rioting led her to compare America unfavorably to the idyllic and carefree Somalia of her youth: “Can you imagine that image that is going to be coming out of our country? I mean, I grew up in a dictatorship, and I don’t even remember ever witnessing anything like that. To have a democracy, a beacon of hope for the world, to now be turned into one of the, you know, one of the worst countries, where the military is on our streets without any regard for people’s constitutional rights, while our president’s spending millions of dollars propping himself up like a failed dictator with a military parade — it’s really shocking.

Shocking? Maybe. Fictional? Certainly. In reality, there is nothing unconstitutional about the president restoring order, and an appeals court has sided with Trump in his legal fight against California Commissar Gavin Newsom over the deployment of the National Guard in the riots. Omar, however, has a narrative to push, and to do so, she enthusiastically wrapped herself in the old red, white and blue: “It should be a wake-up call for all Americans to say, ‘This is not the country we were born in. It’s not the country we believe in. This is not the country our Founding Fathers imagined, and this is not the country that is supported by our Constitution, our ideals, our values.’ And we should all collectively be out in the streets, rejecting what is taking place this week.

What’s that? You didn’t know Ilhan Omar had such a patriotic concern for “our Constitution, our ideals, our values”? In June 2024, video began circulating of former Somali Prime Minister Hassan Khaire standing next to a beaming Omar and saying: “The interest of Ilhan is not Ilhans, it’s not the interest of Minnesota, nor is it the interest of the American people, the interest of Ilhan is that of the Somali people and Somalia. The success of Ilhan is the success of Somalia.”

That video followed one in which Omar gave a speech in which she said: “We Somalis must have the confidence in ourselves that we call the shots in the U.S. The U.S. government will only do what Somalis in the U.S. tell them to do. They will do what we want and nothing else.” She says that the U.S. government “must follow our orders and that is how we will safeguard the interests of Somalia… Sleep in comfort, knowing I am here to protect the interests of Somalia from inside the U.S. system.”

A third video contains footage of Omar from 2022, once again speaking in Somali to a Somali audienceShe begins by saying: “We must fix our roads.” Nothing wrong with that, except that she isn’t talking about the roads in her congressional district. She is talking about roads in Somalia. Omar continues:

I am an American migrant in the U.S. Congress. But I am a Somali girl, a girl with your lineage, a girl with your language, a girl with your religion, that was a young child taken from her country, that misses her country and wishes to live there, and share with its people. I am hopeful in the future that me and my children will be able to raise our kids in this land, where I was born and raised. To make that possible, there is a lot that we need to work on together to make our land a more stable and prosperous place. It is felt by all.

She loves Somalia and longs to live there. She thinks America, meanwhile, is among “the worst of countries.” Yet despite her expressed hope in the 2022 video, she is likely to remain in the country she hates. After all, there is so much more work to do in order to ensure its destruction.
