U.S. counterterrorism agencies are on high alert for potential retaliation after the American government joined Israel in launching a coordinated operation named Epic Fury against Iran over the weekend.
Already, at least two Americans have died and more than a dozen have been injured after a 53-year-old gunman, reportedly clothed in an Iranian flag T-shirt and “Property of Allah” sweatshirt, opened fire at an Austin bar one day after the strikes commenced. While it’s unclear if this alleged terrorism is linked to a larger revenge campaign led by Iran or a lone wolf sympathizer attack, the consensus is that there is a heightened threat of Islamic violence against Americans on their own soil.

WASHINGTON / OTTAWA — Even as kinetic strikes against Iran’s nuclear and military infrastructure have devastated the Islamic Republic’s conventional capabilities, a more shadowy threat remains intact and potentially primed for reactivation: a web of Iran-backed sleeper cells, proxy militias, and criminal mercenary networks already embedded inside North America — networks that have demonstrated the operational capacity to commit murder on American and Canadian soil.

Donald Trump tonight launched an extraordinary attack on Sir Keir Starmer, saying: ‘This is not Winston Churchill we are dealing with.’
The US President delivered a withering verdict on the Prime Minister as he continued to fume at Sir Keir for failing to back US and Israeli strikes on Iran.
In comments that immediately plunged the so-called ‘special relationship’ into an unprecedented crisis, Mr Trump declared that he was ‘not happy’ with the PM and accused him of being ‘very, very uncooperative’.
Spain is on the outs …
🚨 HOLY CRAP! President Trump is now CUTTING OFF all trade with Spain after their leftist PM said to not use bases in their country to strike Iran
“Spain has absolutely nothing we need…we’re gonna cut off ALL TRADE with Spain. We don’t want ANYTHING to do with Spain.”

Canadians may need to brace themselves for violent Mexican drug cartels moving their operations north to escape the war on drugs in Mexico.
“There is a good, strong possibility of that,” former U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) agent Charles Noonan said in an interview.
“Manufacturing in Canada makes sense,” Noonan said. “In the next six months to a year, you could see a surge in the drug labs.”

On 23 February 2026, police in Heilbronn, a city in south-west Germany, opened a criminal investigation into a retired man. His alleged crime? Calling chancellor Freidrich Merz ‘Pinocchio’. No threats. No incitement. Just a blunt, rather amusing suggestion that Germany’s national leader tells lies. Welcome to Germany in 2026, where mocking a politician is now a police matter.

Over a month ago, I decided to try writing a book. Other than hundreds of guest newspaper columns and myriad speeches on enumerable topics over the past forty years, I am not a writer. I have had no formal education to prepare me to undertake such a daunting task. Indeed, I only achieved a grade twelve diploma way back in 1970, largely due to the constant and unrelenting encouragement, and at times direct intervention, of my mother. Given this, you’d be forgiven for asking, why?
What could motivate someone like me to accept such a challenge?

President Donald Trump for the first time acknowledged a personal dimension to his decision to attack Iran, citing the country’s efforts to assassinate him in 2024 as a factor in ordering the joint U.S.-Israeli operation that killed Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
“I got him before he got me,” Trump said in an interview on Sunday night with ABC News. “I got him first.”

Every prime minister is called upon, at one point or another, to comment on the actions of an American president. For Mark Carney, still less than a year on the job, there have already been several such moments.
The latest moment of necessity arrived this past weekend, when the United States and Israel launched new attacks on Iran.
The response, a six-paragraph statement in the names of Carney and Foreign Affairs Minister Anita Anand, has raised questions with which the prime minister may have to wrestle.
Oh yes CBC Carney was far too harsh on the murderous Mullah regime!

Trump’s doctrine is simple: strike first at the guilty, strike hard from afar, skip the nation-building, and end wars on America’s terms.
War is the use of arms to settle differences—tribal, political, religious, cultural, and material—between organized groups. It is unchanging. The general laws of armed conflict stays immutable, given the constancy of human nature.
However, the manner in which war is conducted remains fluid. New weapons, tactics, and strategies elicit counterresponses in an endless cycle of tensions between defensive and offensive superiority.
That said, has President Trump introduced a novel way of waging Western war against America’s foreign enemies?

Canadian Forces exchange officers working with the U.S. military were “very likely” involved at some level in planning the weekend strikes on Iran, a former Canada major-general has warned.
If true, this should raise alarm bells for Canadians because it means Ottawa’s insistence that Canada is “not involved” in this operation is not just implausible, it’s misleading.
Canada is not likely trusted to work on such matters given our PM’s fancy for Beijing.

A 47-year war comes to a head — and a wary nation waits.
Initially, there was polling which indicated that more Americans were for the airstrike campaign, which took out Iranian tyrant Ali Khamenei and several of his top lieutenants, not to mention a host of key political, military, and intelligence facilities, and continues in a clear effort to facilitate regime change in that beleaguered country.
But polling since indicates that isn’t the consensus. More respondents indicate they’re opposed to President Trump’s decision to unleash the whirlwind on the Iranian regime than for it.
