Big Events:
July week 1, 2026: Israel–out of control–aided, abetted, enabled by the United States Government–is attacking Gaza, West Bank, Lebanon, and Iran non-stop, with smaller violent incursions in Yemen and Iraq. Reports of Israeli atrocities flowing thick and fast. Now Israel is threatening Turkey which has the largest land army in the region.
July 3-9, 2026: Largest funeral in human history held for Ayatollah Khamenei. All told, over 40 million mourners with dignitaries sent by over 100 countries around the world, including China, India, Russia, Pakistan, and Western countries and US allies. World response should be understood as a message to the US and Israel that the game has changed and the world supports Iran against them.

July 8, 2026: At NATO Summit in Turkey Donald Trump calls Iranian leaders, “cancer” “cheats” “cuckoo” “evil” “liars” “scum” “vicious” “violent” people. (in short, he called them all the names people around the world call Trump). Reported in Fortune magazine which pointed out that last month Trump was calling Iranians “very rational people” “nice to deal with”.
Loss of Narrative in America:
With gas and food prices climbing because of America’s war against Iran on behalf of Israel, and increasing predictions of catastrophic economic depression, and US Strategic Petroleum reserve due to bottom out in two weeks (recall that on March 18, 2026–when he thought the Iran war would end in days with US/Israel victory– Trump boasted to Americans the US had a 120 day oil reserve), Americans are beginning to wake up to the fact we are in trouble and a lot of it is because of Israel.
July 01, 2026: Israel leases stolen Palestinian land in Jerusalem for 99 years to the United States for symbolic $1 so the US can build an embassy there. Symbolic waste of another American dollar. Israel unlikely to last 5 years much less 99.
Loss of Narrative in Arab States:
July week 1, 2026:Nearly all countries in the Middle East now aligned against Israel. The few holdouts, UAE, Bahrain, Kuwait, which didn’t send official delegations to Ayatollah’s funeral, are still hoping for handouts from the United States . That door is closing.
Loss of Narrative in Israel:
July week 1, 2026: Israeli fanatics and MAGA (what’s left of it) cheerleader Laura Loomer are calling on Israel to bomb the Ayatollah’s funeral. Netanyahu knows that would result in Iran turning Israel into a parking lot, so Israel has backed down. To compensate the blood lust Israel continues bombing Gaza, West Bank, Lebanon but keeps away from Iran.
July 4, 2026: Much hated Israeli Security Minister Itmar Ben Gvir , for the second time, cancels scheduled trip to the United States [this time was for a United Nations Police Summit, no less] after the Hind Rajab Foundation, the Center for Constitutional Rights filed complaints with the Department of Justice and NY Attorney’s office calling for an investigation into Ben Gvir’s crimes. There’s also an excellent chance of rioting if he shows up in the US.
Loss of Narrative Worldwide:
02 July, 2026: New York Times reports that the United States government warned Iran earlier this year that Israel was plotting to kill Iran’s top negotiators during peace talks. Story goes global.
