It would be a different world if people would consider the outcome on children when they join an extreme group or succumb to mental illness. Unfortunately they don’t; anger gives rise to violence and children become collateral damage.
As Trump unravels, he becomes more dangerous to children and people everywhere. One is reminded of the image of Saddam Hussein -looking up from his hiding place – and can supplant the face of Trump over the image. It’s clear that he’s dug himself into a hole that he can’t get out of now.
Domestic and worldwide terrorism only gets worse from here as MAGA and Iran take revenge on their citizens, each other, and their enemies.
In the end many America First supporters will blame the war on Hegseth, Netanyahu and others, for having caused an old man to go off the rails. They may lament, “why did they talk Trump into going to war with Iran?”
As a result, a strange phenomenon is taking place in America where left and right political groups are coming together against the War. – for opposite reasons. On the left – it’s that bad people are causing genocide and misery. On the far right it’s because Jews are subhuman.
Either side could generate domestic terrorists including those blowing up synagogues.
Additionally, as bombs fall on Iran and southern Lebanon, an Iranian hornets nest has been unleashed on the world – first on Israel, the Persian Gulf States of Oman, United Arab Emirates (UAE), Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and Kuwait – then everywhere else.
But the truth is that violence will not change the minds of Iranians terrorists any more than it would the minds of MAGA terrorists in American ICE goon squads.
Therefore, the evidence is clear that we now live in a terrorist world both domestically and globally.
This is why on March 28, 2026 we saw protests all across America with signs that read: “No War, No ICE, No Kings!” Non-violent resistance, for as long as it takes, is the only way to effect change to replace governments hell bent on violence.
In fact, intelligent people know that there’s scarcely a shade of difference between innocent people hiding in their homes in Tehran praying they will remain alive; and people hiding in Minneapolis praying they won’t be taken or killed by ICE.
Terror is terror, and the unleashing of it means that people stop living their everyday lives. Children become unsafe to go to school, and people can’t go to work or open their shops. Instead, in the middle of violent events, people are left hiding, waiting, praying and protesting to end it, so that life can return to normal again.
The Return of the Pursuit of Happiness
What will it take to stop the Jihad against Israel and the West so that people can live in peace without fear of terrorist attacks? How much revenge is enough? The chilling answer is probably nothing at the moment as forever wars continue. They may last until the human race is worn out or annihilates itself – whichever comes first.
In America, the sabotage of happiness affects everyone. Some members of Congress are trying to stop it, but others are refusing to do anything, which leaves Americans stranded at TSA airport lines for hours, as well as terrorized by ICE agents.
The possibility for peace on the planet is possibly a million years off, and therefore we must work on ourselves as human beings in the meantime, and band together to do good things in our lives and for the world.
This means that at the same time terrorism is going on around us we must cope the best way we can.
We can turn our frustration with how bad things are to determination to find solutions and compromises to problems within our sphere of influence and control.
Ending violence occurs when enough people are sick of it to the point that they rise up collectively to stop it through non-violent means. This is why the answer to how you deconflict a terrorist group is one person at a time, starting with helping them become less angry by listening and taking constructive action.
It’s important to remember, however, that even when a democratic, sane government exists – there are those among us who will always work to destroy everything for a thousand reasons.
