They Are Lying to You About Israel. Here Is the Truth.

Let’s be clear. You are being manipulated. A thick, poisonous fog of lies has been deliberately rolled across the media landscape to obscure a simple, stark reality: a free nation acted to stop a genocidal regime from acquiring the tools of Armageddon. And for this, the world, instead of breathing a sigh of relief, has chosen to condemn the rescuer.

They want you to believe this is a story of aggression. Of cruelty. Of a regional bully run amok. It is the greatest and most dangerous inversion of truth in a generation. The choice before us was never between war and peace. It was between a courageous, limited action now, or a nuclear holocaust later. Israel chose action. Israel chose life.

The Anatomy of a Lie

First, they constructed a screen of tears. They showed you carefully curated images of state-managed funerals in Tehran, presenting the forced marches of a terrified populace as a great outpouring of national grief. They want you to believe that the Iranian people are united in mourning for the architects of their own oppression—the very IRGC commanders who gun down protestors in the streets and export terror across the globe. It is a grotesque charade. To believe it is to be breathtakingly naive, or worse, a willing accomplice to the propaganda of a totalitarian state. This wasn't grief; it was a command performance, orchestrated by the world’s most prolific terrorist regime.

Next, they performed a monstrous bait-and-switch, cynically conflating the difficult and tragic conflict in Gaza with the surgical strike against Iran's nuclear program. They scream 'killing field' to drown out the ticking of a nuclear clock. It is a disgusting, dishonest tactic. They want you to see every Israeli action through a lens of maximum condemnation, to ensure you never have a moment to consider the alternative: a world trembling under the shadow of a nuclear-armed Ayatollah, a regime that chants “Death to Israel” and “Death to America” not as a slogan, but as a statement of intent.

Finally, they whisper the poison of the 'pyrrhic victory.' They magnify every challenge, every political disagreement within Israel’s raucous democracy, every rocket that got through, to paint a picture of failure. They want you to ignore the central, stunning achievement: that the head of the serpent was struck. That a program of annihilation, decades in the making, was crippled. It’s like calling the D-Day landings a failure because the Allies suffered casualties. It is a lie born of cowardice and a desperate desire to see the world's only Jewish state humbled.

The Patience That Ran Out

Here is the truth they are trying so hard to bury. For years, Israel endured. It was a patience of steel. We watched as Iran, the planet's central bank for terror, funded Hamas, Hezbollah, and the Houthis. We watched as their proxies surrounded us, launching thousands of missiles at our homes. We issued warnings. We pursued diplomacy. We pleaded with the world to see the evidence: a tyrannical regime, flagrantly violating every international agreement, racing towards a nuclear weapon it explicitly promised to use to wipe us off the map.

We hoped the world would see the truth. We were disappointed. The world saw negotiations as a solution, while Iran saw them as a smokescreen to buy more time. Then came the intelligence. The final, terrifying confirmation that the regime had reached a nuclear “point of no return.” The time for talk was over. The time for hope had passed. All other options were exhausted.

To wait any longer would not have been prudence; it would have been suicide. International law is not a suicide pact. It does not demand that a nation wait for the mushroom cloud to appear over its cities before it is allowed to act. “Operation Am Kelavi” was not an act of aggression. It was the desperate, necessary, and heroic act of a nation refusing to be led to the slaughter.

The Moral Contrast Is Not Complicated

There is no moral equivalence here. Let us put the lies aside and speak of the chasm that separates the two sides. Israel uses the most advanced technology on earth to perform surgical strikes on terror leaders and nuclear weapons scientists—the very individuals plotting mass death. We mourn every innocent life, a tragedy often caused by the enemy’s craven tactic of embedding its war machine within civilian life. Israel builds, innovates, and cherishes life.

The Iranian regime is a death cult. It fires hundreds of heavy, indiscriminate missiles at our civilian centers. It glorifies martyrdom. It hangs gay people from cranes and murders women for showing their hair. It is a regime whose declared vision for the world is a return to a dark age, funded by oil and armed with nuclear warheads. A world without the IRGC is a better world. A world without Iran's nuclear program is a safer world. This is not complicated.

And to those in the West who frame this as a subplot in American politics, as a gambit by a US president: stop. Your navel-gazing is an insult to our existence. Israel’s right to self-defense is not granted by Washington. It is inherent. When our families face annihilation, we will not wait for permission to save them. We are a sovereign nation, the last line of defense for the free world in a region drowning in fanaticism. We acted for our survival, and in doing so, we did the entire world a favor.

The Choice Before You

This was not an act that brought war closer. This was an act that prevented a far greater, far more catastrophic war. By striking with precision and crippling the enemy’s command structure, Israel restored the deterrence that appeasement had eroded. It pushed the region away from the brink of a nuclear nightmare. This was an act of de-escalation, not provocation.

The narrative of Israeli failure and immorality is a lie designed to paralyze us, to make us ashamed of our own survival. It is a lie that serves only one master: the murderous, theocratic regime in Tehran.

The choice is clear. So what can you do?

• Share this truth. Do not let the lies stand unchallenged in your conversations or on your social media feeds. Your silence is consent.
• Demand clarity from your leaders. Ask them to stand with the defenders of civilization, not the agents of terror. Tell them to stop pretending there is a moral equivalence between a democracy defending itself and a tyranny seeking genocide.
• Do not be silent. Your voice is a weapon in the fight for truth against a tidal wave of deception. Use it now. Before it’s too late.
