Trump asks Netanyahu to “stop the attack immediately”

The “Israeli” newspaper Jerusalem Post, citing an informed source, revealed that U.S. President Donald Trump’s conversation with “Israeli” Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu about a ceasefire with Iran was tense. The source said that Trump raised his voice during his phone call with Netanyahu, demanding that he stop the attack on Iran. The source added to the newspaper that Trump was agitated and asked Netanyahu to “stop the attack immediately,” and that Netanyahu was unable to speak and merely expressed his gratitude to the U.S. president. For its part, the British Newspaper, The Telegraph, reported that Trump was exceptionally firm and direct with Netanyahu.

Al-Waie Magazine: This is further evidence refuting the claim that the Jewish entity has the upper hand in the United States, that it can do whatever it wants without referring to the White House, and that the latter has no ability to restrain it.

CNN: U.S. strikes did not destroy Iran’s nuclear program, according to intelligence.

CNN reported that the initial intelligence assessment shows that the U.S. strikes on three nuclear facilities in Iran early Sunday morning did not destroy the core elements of Iran’s nuclear program, and may have only set it back by a few months.

CNN explained that this assessment was reported for the first time, and cited from three sources who reviewed it was issued by the Defense Intelligence Agency, the intelligence arm of the Department of Defense (the Pentagon), and is based on the evaluation conducted by U.S. Central Command following the strikes.

Two of the sources said that Iran’s stockpile of enriched uranium was not destroyed, while one of them said that the centrifuges were largely intact. “Therefore, the agency’s assessment means that the United States may have only set them back by a few months at most,” one source said.

Al-Waie: If this report is accurate, it confirms that the actual goal of the U.S. strikes on Iran was not to destroy Iran’s nuclear program, but rather a theatrical operation aimed at helping the Jewish entity climb down from the tree it had climbed by waging war against Iran, in which it became stuck, and in need of an exit scenario, especially after being harmed by Iranian missiles and failing to achieve further meaningful objectives from the war.

Hezbollah: We are not neutral and act as we see fit.

A week into the confrontation between the Jewish entity and Iran, the Secretary-General of Iran’s Hezb in Lebanon, Naim Qassem, announced on Thursday that the Iran-aligned party “will act as it sees fit” in the ongoing events.

Qassem said in a statement that the party “is not neutral” in this conflict, adding, “We act as we see fit in confronting this blatant Israeli-American aggression.”

This stance came after U.S. Special Envoy to Syria Thomas Barrack, speaking from Beirut, warned that the party’s involvement in the Iranian-Israeli war would be “a very bad decision.”

An American report pointed out that the party, once considered the strongest among Iran’s allies, has not fired a single rocket since the ‘Israeli’ attack.

Al-Waie: Iran’s Hezb has lost both this world and the Hereafter; it lost the Hereafter when it shed the blood of Muslims in Syria, and then lost this world when it chose cowardice until its military and leadership ranks were wiped out.

Enemy media: The large increase in defense expenditures has burdened the public budget

“Israeli” media revealed that the airstrike launched by the occupying state on facilities in Iran cost the government nearly $1.5 billion, at a time when the country is suffering from increasing financial pressures and a defense budget crisis. The reports explained that the large increase in defense expenditures has burdened the public budget, prompting the government to breach the budget framework set for 2025 after already breaching it four times during 2024, reflecting the fragility of financial stability amid tense security conditions.

Al-Waie: Economic indicators are among the most important factors in the survival or downfall of regimes and governments, and they have an even greater impact on the entity. Perhaps the most fitting statement is the Saying of Allah (swt),

[إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ يُنفِقُونَ أَمۡوَٰلَهُمۡ لِيَصُدُّواْ عَن سَبِيلِ ٱللَّهِۚ فَسَيُنفِقُونَهَا ثُمَّ تَكُونُ عَلَيۡهِمۡ حَسۡرَةٗ ثُمَّ يُغۡلَبُونَۗ وَٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوٓاْ إِلَىٰ جَهَنَّمَ يُحۡشَرُونَ]

“Indeed, those who disbelieve spend their wealth to avert [people] from the way of Allah. So they will spend it; then it will be for them [a source of] regret; then they will be overcome. And those who have disbelieved – unto Hell they will be gathered.” [TMQ Surah Al-Anfal: 39]

A Lebanese army unit enters Beirut’s southern suburb and searches a building

Based on a previous request from the Quintet Oversight Committee monitoring the ceasefire agreement, a Lebanese army unit on Wednesday entered the Saint Therese area in Beirut’s southern suburb and inspected one of the buildings in the area that it had also entered yesterday. This time, however, it brought in an excavator for digging, according to Al Arabiya/Al Hadath’s correspondent.

A Lebanese military official had previously explained that the army began yesterday inspecting a building in Beirut’s southern suburb, the densely populated stronghold of Hezbollah, at the request of the Quintet Oversight Committee monitoring the ceasefire agreement in Lebanon.

Al-Waie: The Hezb of Iran has not only prepared its own shroud but has also staged the final scene for dancing on the grave it dug with its own hands. Here is the Quintet committee giving orders and prohibitions. And who is this Quintet Committee? It is the Lebanese army, as the executor, the army of the occupying state, as the commander, the United States, as the prohibitor, and France and UNIFIL, as the witnesses.

Salam: We have managed to prevent Lebanon from being dragged into war… and we are working for the withdrawal of ‘Israel’ from the south.

Lebanese Prime Minister Najib Salam, speaking from Qatar where he met with the country’s Emir Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, reaffirmed that his government’s commitment to the decision to “extend the authority of the state, with its own resources, over all its territory is a priority.” He said, “We have managed to prevent Lebanon from being dragged into the war (between Tel Aviv and Tehran) and we are working to pressure ‘Israel’ to withdraw.”

Salam also reiterated his government’s adherence to the Taif Agreement, stressing that “extending the authority of the state, with its own resources, over all its territory” remains a priority, and emphasizing that “Lebanon cannot enjoy full stability as long as ‘Israel’ has not withdrawn from the Lebanese territories it still occupies, especially in the five well-known points.”

He said, “We are seeking to rally Arab and international support to compel ‘Israel’ to withdraw, and this has been part of a daily effort for more than two months.” He noted that the understanding to cease hostilities signed last November with ‘Israel,’ “has not been honored by the latter,” calling for its revival and for pressure to be exerted to implement it.

Al-Waie: The statement carries both the meaning and its opposite. When you beg the nations of the world to pressure the occupying state to withdraw its army from your land, you cannot claim that you are extending your authority with your own forces.

Extraordinary meeting of the Gulf Ministerial Council in Doha to discuss Iranian missile attacks

The Ministerial Council of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) held an extraordinary meeting in the Qatari capital, Doha, following the Iranian missile attacks that targeted the Al Udeid base on Qatari territory. Jassim Mohammed Al-Budaiwi, Secretary-General of the GCC, stressed that this meeting reaffirms the unity of GCC States in standing alongside their brothers in Qatar, and also confirms that Qatar’s security and stability are an integral part of the security and stability of the GCC states.

Al-Waie: The statements of Gulf officials and their leaders, along with their meetings, were the final scene in the play to end the war between the Jewish entity and Iran as if these shepherds of sheep, arrogant in their tall buildings, actually hold their own decisions. Were it not for Allah’s blessings on this land in the form of the Ummah’s resources which they have squandered and spent on the Emperor of the White House, they would not have preserved their thrones, their status, nor their security.
