Robin Williams Acknowledged He Channeled Demonic Spirits For Comedic Power

Robin Williams acknowledged that he had opened himself up to transformative demonic powers that aided him on stage. Without the aid of such demonic powers, it is likely that you would have never have heard of Robin Williams and many other famous celebrities.

Fame in Hollywood often comes with a deadly price

“And he asked him, What is thy name? And he answered, saying, My name is Legion: for we are many.” Mark 5:9

Suicide is not the unpardonable sin, neither is murder, divorce, fornication, homosexuality, drug addiction or anything else you could possibly do. No, the only sin that God cannot forgive is the one of rejecting the free gift of salvation that is found only in Jesus Christ. The generic “higher power” many meet in rehab may get you sober for a time, but will damn your eternal soul if you die without meeting Jesus in particular, and not just “god” in general.

Don’t make the fatal mistake of confusing sobriety with salvation.

Everybody is currently talking about Robin Williams and his tragic suicide. Many are puzzled as to how a man, who made so many people laugh, could be so depressed that he would violently end his life. What people are not learning is the deeper truth about the insidious forces that tormented Robin Williams and drove him to suicide.

Robin Williams acknowledged that he had opened himself up to transformative demonic powers that aided him on stage. Without the aid of such demonic powers, it is likely that you would have never have heard of Robin Williams and many other famous celebrities.

“Yeah! Literally, it’s like possession ‑ all of a sudden you’re in, and because it’s in front of a live audience, you just get this energy that just starts going…” – Robin Williams

Williams also recognized that these powers had manifested a very evil influence on stage and that there could be a hefty price to pay for their assistance. Williams told James Kaplan of US Weekly:

“Yeah! Literally, it’s like possession ‑ all of a sudden you’re in, and because it’s in front of a live audience, you just get this energy that just starts going…But there’s also that thing ‑ it is possession. In the old days you’d be burned for it…But there is something empowering about it. I mean, it is a place where you are totally ‑ it is Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, where you really can become this other force. Maybe that’s why I don’t need to play evil characters [in movies], ’cause sometimes onstage you can cross that line and come back. Clubs are a weird kind of petri dish environment. I mean, that’s where people can get as dark as they can in comedy ‑ in the name of comedy, be talking about outrageous stuff and somehow come out the other side. I mean, that’s one place where you really want to push it” (Robin Williams, “Robin Williams,” by James Kaplan, US Weekly, January, 1999, p. 53).

Williams’ last statement quoted above answers the question as to why the demonic powers use entertainers. Their goal is to promote evil and darkness and increase mankind’s rebellion against God.

Williams went on to say on the heels of that admission:

“The people I’ve admired ‑ Jonathan Winters, in his best days, was out. Gone. But the price he paid for it was deep”

Sadly, it seems that the price Robin Williams has now paid is just as deep as that of his idol, Jonathan Winters. In fact, in the same US Weekly Interview, James Kaplan says:

“With a gift for mimicry and improvisation that verged on demonic possession, Williams could even approach the artistry of his idol Jonathan Winters—a man whose genius took him, once or twice, over the edge into mental illness. Williams’ own version of hell has been extensively chronicled”.

Like Robin Williams, Jonathan Winters had to contend with the tormenting demonic powers he utilized for fame and fortune. “These voices are always screaming to get out,” Winters told the Fort Worth Star-Telegram, further admitting “They follow me around pretty much all day and night.”

At the height of Winter’s success, he voluntarily committed himself to a psychiatric hospital for eight months. Winters would later claim that if he were not careful, the authorities would put him back in the “zoo,” an obvious reference to the mental institution. Winters, like Williams, often fell into deep depression and struggled with heavy drinking.

While many only knew Robin Williams to be what they considered a somewhat “family friendly” actor, he was one of the most successful crude stand-up comics who ever lived. It was during his stand-up where he was most able to tap into what he calls “possession…Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde… that’s where people can get as dark as they can in comedy ‑ in the name of comedy” .

It was in Williams’ stand-up where he would go into his manic, stream-of-consciousness rants filled with vulgar language, perverse sexuality and the glorification of illicit drugs and drunkenness. Many people express shock after seeing Williams’ stand-up, not knowing his act was so perverse. Comedians, like many famous musicians, pay the price for their fame by becoming enslaved to the demonic forces that possess and torment them.

Jim Morrison, the frontman of America’s most successful band in the 60’s, admitted that he had to drink “to silence the constant voices of the demons” (James Riordin, “Break on Through: The Life and Death of Jim Morrison,” p. 23). The Door’s photographer, Frank Lisciandro, stated that,“Jim drank to quiet the ceaseless clamor of the demons, ghosts and spirits. He drank because there were demons and voices and spirits shouting inside of his head and he found that one of the ways to quell them was with alcohol”

“I have someone else that takes over when it’s time for me to work and when I’m on stage, this alter ego that I’ve created that kind of protects me and who I really am,” – Beyonce is pictured here wearing the classic goat’s head symbol used exclusively in Satan worship.

Brian Wilson, considered the musical genius of the Beach Boys, claimed that he has been harassed by several different demonic spirit entities that so tormented him that he was bed ridden for years. Rolling Stone describes Wilson’s possession-like experience in ways that are reminiscent of scenes of Linda Blair from The Exorcist:

“Brian Wilson hears voices. They talk to him. They frighten him, distract him, confuse him…the voices are calling. His eyes roll toward the ceiling; they’ve gone blank. His brow is furrowed with thick worry lines. He is silent. Gone. He looks up, jerks his head back and forth for a few seconds, as if physically shaking away the voices” Former Warner Brother Records President, Larry Waronker, claims to have met at least five different entities possessing Brian Wilson’s body (Rolling Stone, August, 1988, p. 51-52).

Superstar Beyonce freely admitted to channeling a demonic spirit named Sasha Fierce, and that Sasha actually took over during her performances.

Ozzy Osborne admitted, “I’ve got many, many demons that affect me on many, many levels” (Harry Shaw, “Ozzy Talking,” p. 126). Ozzie further admitted, “I remember sitting through the Exorcist a dozen times, saying to myself, ‘Yeah, I can relate to that” (Hit Parader, Nov. 1984, p. 49).

Most people are blind to this diabolical pattern of celebrities giving themselves over to satanic power for fame and fortune, only to be exploited, used and abused, and then spit out after Satan is done with them.

Heath Ledger’s life ended prematurely not long after he accepted the evil role of The Joker in The Dark Knight. While Ledger’s depression began after starring in the gay promotional film, Brokeback Mountain, after his death, headlines from Australia’s Herald Sun like, “Tragic Death: Heath Ledger Battled His Demons” and The Star, stating “If it was personal demons that conspired to destroy Heath Ledger, they were already making their presence felt many years before,” underscored the fact that Ledger was dealing with some dark forces.

Ledger said of The Joker character he would portray in The Dark Knight,“He’s a psychopathic, mass murdering, schizophrenic clown with zero empathy.” However, to properly play the role to his satisfaction, Ledger would open himself up to evil spirits with even less empathy. “Well,” said Jack Nicholson, who had also played The Joker, “I warned him” (Source).

Unfortunately, Nicholson’s warning went unheeded and Ledger overcame his fears and ended up even meditating on becoming the evil Joker he would portray:

“I definitely feared it…Although anything that makes me afraid I guess excites me at the same time. I don’t know if I was fearless, but I certainly had to put on a brave face and believe that I have something up my sleeve. Something different…just closing my eyes and meditating on it…it was important to try to find a somewhat iconic voice and laugh. I ended up landing more in the realm of a psychopath — someone with very little to no conscience towards his acts” (Source).

Ledger told the New York Times that he “had trouble sleeping while portraying the Joker,”and that, “Last week I probably slept an average of two hours a night.” Ledger seems to have been so tormented that he told the Times, “I couldn’t stop thinking. My body was exhausted, and my mind was still going.” He went on to state that he took drugs, which would quell the unrest for only an hour (The Associated Press, January 23, 2008). Sadly, Ledger, died of a drug overdose shortly after the filming of The Dark Knight.

Robin Williams, like Morrison, Winters, Ledger and so many others who resort to drugs or alcohol in their attempt to quell the demonic voices that torment them, fail to realize – until it’s too late – that such drugs only draw one deeper into Satan’s insidious web.

Sadly, Robin Williams must have felt like he was in a no win situation. When he sought sobriety, the demonic voices which he admits he had opened himself up to likely tormented him to no end. When he sought to drown out the clamoring voices with a deluge of alcohol, he ended up poisoning himself and teetered on the throes of death. He had tried “professional help” a number of times, but the arm of the flesh, no matter how noble the intentions, cannot overcome the demonic world.

Robin Williams felt enslaved to the industry and to the very dark powers that brought him fame in the first place. An intimate friend of Williams told the Telegraph that Williams had been working on new projects and dreaded making more films to pay the bills, as they “brought out his demons” and “left him drained and particularly vulnerable to depressive episodes.”

(End article as taken from Good Fight Ministries)

Demonic oppression and enslavement is real, and what happened with Robin Williams and many others is proof of that. The bible says that Jesus came to set the “captives free”. A general belief in a generic god of your own making, a higher power, has never and will never save anyone’s soul. If the “god” you meet in rehab is not the Lord Jesus Christ, you have met a powerless idol who cannot help or save you. Don’t ever make the fatal mistake of confusing sobriety with salvation. But believing on the Lord Jesus Christ, and asking Him to wash you clean in His shed blood from Calvary’s cross will save you for all eternity.

THE PROPHECY NEWS PODCAST: America Has Become An ‘Antichrist Nation’ And Christians Seem Unable Or Unwilling To Come To Terms With That Reality

Jesus Warned That Deception Would Define The Last Days, And Today The Antichrists Of Government, Media, Technology And Religion Are Operating At Full Power

We are living in an age when the antichrists no longer hide in dark corners but they stand beneath spotlights, speak from television screens, wear expensive suits, carry government credentials and even walk into the pulpit holding a King James Bible. Jesus Christ warned that the defining characteristic of the last days would not merely be war, disease or political turmoil, but deception. The modern world is drowning in information while starving for truth, and the louder the machinery of propaganda becomes, the more difficult it is for the undiscerning person to separate fact from carefully manufactured perception. But what about the Christian, the Bible believer who should be looking for these things, even anticipating these things? All is not quiet on the western front, and the skies are rapidly darkening.

“Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last time.” 1 John 2:18 (KJB)

On this episode of the Prophecy News Podcast, The COVID era demonstrated how quickly fear could be converted into power. Emergency declarations became lockdowns, dissent was suppressed, institutional narratives repeatedly changed, and millions were pressured to accept medical decisions under threat of losing employment, education or access to ordinary life. Then there is the expanding alliance between government, media, military power, surveillance technology and private capital. Figures such as Peter Thiel represent a technological world capable of collecting, organizing and analyzing information on a scale previous generations could scarcely imagine, while Pete Hegseth represents the polished fusion of television personality, political messaging and military authority. Most disturbing of all is deception inside the professing Church. Political deception can corrupt a nation, but spiritual deception can destroy souls. Charisma, preaching ability, celebrity friendships and institutional reputation must never be permitted to shield abuse, silence victims or prevent serious allegations from receiving an honest investigation. Kenny Baldwin didn’t fall, Jack Schaap didn’t fall, they are literal antichrists targeting the Church, with hundreds more just like them waiting in the wings. This is THE AGE OF DECEPTION – an age in which governments manipulate fear, politicians manufacture loyalty, corporations monetize personal information, media personalities sell carefully constructed narratives and religious institutions protect reputations at the expense of truth. Christian, we are surrounded by antichrists who are with one voice preparing this world to receive the Antichrist. Today we lift all the end times rocks to show you what’s crawling beneath them. Consider this your ‘golden age’ antidote!

THE BIBLE BELIEVERS SUNDAY SERVICE: The Secret Of The Lord And The Faith Of Him

Published

1 day ago

August 2, 2026

Geoffrey Grider

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

The Secret Of The LORD Shows Us His Ways, And The Faith Of Him Secures Our Standing — One Reveals God’s Eternal Purpose While The Other Guarantees That It Cannot Fail

The secret of the LORD is not some mystical code reserved for religious elites; it is the intimate counsel of God entrusted to those who fear Him, receive His words and walk in obedience to His testimonies. The proud man may possess information about God, but the surrendered servant is taught the ways of God. Psalm 25 shows the order clearly: fear produces teachability, obedience places us in the paths of mercy and truth, and fellowship with the LORD brings understanding of His covenant and purpose. God reveals His secret to servants because revealed truth carries responsibility—we are expected to believe it, obey it and proclaim it. Welcome to the Sunday Service of the Bible Believers Church at the Bookstore!

“The secret of the LORD is with them that fear him; and he will shew them his covenant.” Psalm 25:14 (KJB)

When God brings us into the revelation of His eternal purpose in Christ, we discover that our access, righteousness and security do not rest upon our own wavering faithfulness, but upon “the faith of him.” We believe in Jesus Christ, but we are justified by the faith of Jesus Christ; our believing receives the gift, while His perfect obedience and finished work provide its unshakable foundation. Our confidence may tremble, our emotions may change and our performance may fail, but Jesus Christ cannot falter or deny Himself. The secret of the LORD reveals His purpose, and the faith of Him guarantees that purpose will be accomplished: the servant may falter, but the Saviour can never fail.

The Bible Believers Sunday Service: The Secret Of The Lord

The Secret Of The Lord

“The secret of the LORD is with them that fear him; and he will shew them his covenant.” Psalm 25:14 (KJB)

“According to the eternal purpose which he purposed in Christ Jesus our Lord: In whom we have boldness and access with confidence by the faith of him.” Ephesians 3:11–12 (KJB)

The LORD reveals His secret counsel to those who fear Him, receive His words and walk in obedience. But our standing, access and security before God do not rest upon the strength of our faith. They rest upon the perfect and unfailing faith of Jesus Christ. The secret reveals God’s purpose; the faith of Christ guarantees its accomplishment.

I. The Secret of the LORD Is Given to Those Who Fear Him

“The meek will he guide in judgment: and the meek will he teach his way. All the paths of the LORD are mercy and truth unto such as keep his covenant and his testimonies. For thy name’s sake, O LORD, pardon mine iniquity; for it is great. What man is he that feareth the LORD? him shall he teach in the way that he shall choose. His soul shall dwell at ease; and his seed shall inherit the earth. The secret of the LORD is with them that fear him; and he will shew them his covenant. Mine eyes are ever toward the LORD; for he shall pluck my feet out of the net.” Psalm 25:9-15 (KJB)

The fear of the LORD places a man in a teachable position. God does not entrust His counsel to the proud, rebellious or self-sufficient. He teaches the person who approaches Him with reverence, humility and submission. The secret of the LORD is not occult knowledge or a hidden code. It is the privilege of understanding God’s ways, His counsel, His covenant and His purpose. Being teachable and willing to follow Him appears to be one of the LORD’s special secrets.

In the opening of Psalm 25, there are 4 requests being made in the first 7 verses.

“Shew me” verse 4
“Lead me” verse 5
“teach me” verse 5
“remember me” verse 7

Application

Before asking God to show us deeper truth, we should ask whether we are obeying the truth He has already shown us. A person who refuses God’s plain commandments should not expect illumination concerning deeper spiritual matters.

II. Obedience Places Us in the Path of Mercy and Truth

“All the paths of the LORD are mercy and truth unto such as keep his covenant and his testimonies.” Psalm 25:10 (KJB)

The secret is not merely something we hear; it is something we walk in. God’s paths become clearer as we obey His testimonies. Obedience does not earn divine revelation. Rather, obedience demonstrates that we are prepared to receive, value and act upon what God reveals.

Application

The serious Bible student must come to the Scriptures with more than curiosity. He must come with a surrendered heart:

What does God say?
What does God require?
What must I believe?
What must I change?
What must I do?

III. God Reveals His Secret to His Servants

“Surely the Lord GOD will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets.” Amos 3:7 (KJB)

“And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient,” 2 Timothy 2:24 (KJB)

“Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, separated unto the gospel of God,” Romans 1:1 (KJB)

James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ – James 1:1
Simon Peter, a servant and an apostle of Jesus Christ – 2 Peter 1:1
Jude, the servant of Jesus Christ – Jude 1:1

Before God acted in judgment, He revealed His counsel to His prophets. They were called “servants” because divine revelation always carries divine responsibility. The prophets were not given God’s secret so they could admire their own knowledge. They were commanded to proclaim what God had revealed.

Application

Whenever God gives a preacher, teacher or Bible believer understanding, that person becomes responsible for what he knows.

Truth creates accountability:

Truth must be believed.
Truth must be obeyed.
Truth must be proclaimed.
Truth must never be corrupted for personal advantage.

IV. The Secret Leads Us to God’s Eternal Purpose in Christ

“And to make all men see what is the fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning of the world hath been hid in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ:” Ephesians 3:9 (KJB)

“According to the eternal purpose which he purposed in Christ Jesus our Lord:” Ephesians 3:11 (KJB)

Psalm 25 speaks in covenant language, while Ephesians 3 reveals the mystery concerning the Church, the Body of Christ. These programs must not be confused, but the spiritual principle remains: God reveals His purpose according to His own timing and to His chosen servants.

The mystery revealed through Paul was not a revised version of Israel’s prophetic program. It had been “hid in God.” It reveals the unsearchable riches of Christ and God’s eternal purpose for the Church.

Application

We must rightly divide the word of truth. Everything in the Bible is written for our learning, but not everything is written doctrinally to us.

The believer must distinguish:

Prophecy from mystery.
Israel from the Church.
Covenant promises from the Body of Christ.
The earthly kingdom from our heavenly position.

V. Our Access to God Is by the Faith of Him

“In whom we have boldness and access with confidence by the faith of him.” Ephesians 3:12 (KJB)

Our access does not rest upon our feelings, performance or ability to maintain perfect confidence. We have access because we are in Jesus Christ, and that access is “by the faith of him.” Our faith may be weak, but His faith cannot weaken. Our confidence may fluctuate, but His faithfulness cannot change. Our performance may fail, but His finished work remains eternally sufficient.

Application

We do not approach God by presenting our worthiness. We approach God in the worthiness of Jesus Christ. Our boldness is not self-confidence. It is Christ-confidence.

VI. The Bible Distinguishes Our Believing From the Faith of Christ

“Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified.” Galatians 2:16 (KJB)

This verse contains both sides of the doctrine:

“The faith of Jesus Christ” describes the divine basis of our justification.
“We have believed in Jesus Christ” describes our personal reception of it.

Our believing is necessary, but our believing is not the meritorious work that purchases salvation. We believe on the One whose faith, obedience, blood and finished work are completely sufficient.

Application

The sinner is not told to have faith in his own faith. He is commanded to believe on Jesus Christ. Salvation does not depend upon how intensely a sinner can believe. It depends upon whether the object of his faith is the Lord Jesus Christ.

VII. The Faith of Christ Provides the Righteousness We Could Never Produce

“Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference:” Romans 3:22 (KJB)

“And be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith:” Philippians 3:9 (KJB)

Salvation requires perfect righteousness. We cannot produce it, maintain it or deserve it. God therefore gives the believer His righteousness through the faith of Jesus Christ.

It is:

Not our righteousness.
Not the righteousness of the law.
Not religious performance.
Not human faithfulness.
The righteousness of God in Jesus Christ.

Application

Stop examining yourself to determine whether you are righteous enough to remain saved. You’re not and never will be. Instead, look to Jesus Christ, in whom we have been made accepted. Our assurance rests in His righteousness, not ours.

VIII. The Faith of Christ Sustains the Believer’s Daily Life

“I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.” Galatians 2:20 (KJB)

The faith of Christ is not only connected with our justification; it is also the foundation of our Christian life. Paul did not say that he lived by confidence in himself. He lived by the faith of the Son of God. Christ loved us, gave Himself for us and now lives in us.

Application

Christian living is not attempting to ‘imitate Jesus’ through human determination. Imitating Jesus is what Antichrist will do! Rather, it is the life of Christ operating through a surrendered believer.

We supply the surrendered vessel; Christ supplies the life.

IX. The Two Doctrines Come Together

The Secret of the LORD	The Faith of Him
Reveals God’s counsel	Accomplishes God’s purpose
Is with those who fear Him	Is found perfectly in Jesus Christ
Calls the servant to obedience	Gives the believer boldness and access
Shows us God’s covenant and ways	Gives us God’s righteousness
Creates responsibility	Produces security
Tells us what God is doing	Guarantees that God’s purpose cannot fail

Combined Truth

The secret of the LORD shows us that God desires surrendered servants who fear Him, obey Him and receive His counsel. The faith of Him shows us that the fulfillment of God’s eternal purpose does not finally rest upon the servant’s strength—it rests upon Jesus Christ. We are called to be faithful, but we are secured by the One who cannot be unfaithful.

“If we believe not, yet he abideth faithful: he cannot deny himself.” 2 Timothy 2:13 (KJB)

Application

Ask yourself:

Do I truly fear the LORD, or do I merely possess religious knowledge?
Am I obeying the truth God has already shown me?
Am I a servant whom God can trust with greater understanding?
Am I rightly dividing prophecy from mystery?
Am I trusting my feelings and performance, or the finished work of Christ?
Is my confidence resting in my faith, or in the faith of Him?
Am I using revealed truth to serve others and glorify God?

Closing Challenge

The secret of the LORD is not given so that we may become proud of what we know. It is given so that we may understand His ways, submit to His Word and faithfully serve His purpose. At the same time, we must never confuse our service with the foundation of our salvation. We fear Him, obey Him and serve Him—but our boldness, access, righteousness and security rest completely in Jesus Christ. The servant may falter, but the Saviour cannot fail. The secret is revealed to those who fear Him, and its eternal purpose is secured by the faith of Him.

The War That Donald Trump Started In Iran Is Rapidly Spinning Out Of Control As The United States Appears To Be Heading ‘Strait’ Into A Strategic Defeat

Trump Said Iran Was Obliterated And The War Was Nearly Finished, Now U.S. Allies Fear Defeat And American Generals Are Warning Of Dangerous Shortages

HOW CAN THIS BE?? How can the most powerful military machine on earth spend five months pounding Iran with bombers, cruise missiles, aircraft carriers and thousands of combat sorties, only to awaken to headlines warning that America is approaching a strategic defeat? The answer is as simple as it is devastating. President Donald Trump confused the power to destroy targets with the ability to win a war. The Pentagon can publish breathtaking numbers of Iranian installations bombed, ships destroyed and commanders eliminated, but none of that constitutes victory when the enemy government remains standing, the Strait of Hormuz remains effectively closed, American forces remain under attack and the conflict continues expanding across the Middle East. Trump promised obliteration, announced victory and assured the American people that the war was nearly finished. Iran apparently never received that memo. Today all Hell is breaking loose across the Middle East, and it appears to be unstoppable.

“Or what king, going to make war against another king, sitteth not down first, and consulteth whether he be able with ten thousand to meet him that cometh against him with twenty thousand?” Luke 14:31 (KJB)

Trump entered this war boasting of overwhelming American strength, but without any attainable endgame. Was the objective to destroy Iran’s nuclear program, eliminate its missiles, overthrow the government, reopen Hormuz, protect Israel, blockade Iranian ports or force Tehran into an unconditional surrender? No one in the Trump administration seems to know the answer to that. Washington has attempted all of it simultaneously, and has accomplished none of it decisively. The Iranian regime survived the opening bombardment, hardened its grip on the country and continued launching missiles and drones against Israel, American installations, commercial shipping and Gulf allies. Iran does not have to defeat the United States in a conventional battle. It merely has to remain standing while America bleeds money, burns through interceptors, exhausts its warships and watches the conflict spread from Iran into Iraq, Jordan, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Yemen and Egypt.

Today comes the astonishing report that America’s top general in Europe has warned the Pentagon that he needs another Navy destroyer to continue protecting both Israel and the United States. Without it, he may be forced to prioritize the American homeland. Think about what that means. Five months after Trump began a war he claimed would demonstrate unmatched American power, the Department of War is reportedly confronting a choice between maintaining the missile shield over Israel and preserving sufficient forces for the defense of America itself. Israel’s survival against sustained Iranian ballistic-missile attacks has become increasingly dependent upon American destroyers, American radar, American THAAD batteries and a rapidly diminishing supply of American interceptors. Every inexpensive Iranian drone that rises into the sky forces Washington to answer with weapons costing millions of dollars—and those weapons cannot be instantly replaced.

For many months now, NTEB told you this would happen, warned you it was coming, and now it’s here.

That is the trap Iran has constructed, America may control the skies, but Iran controls the clock. America can destroy another radar station, missile launcher or IRGC headquarters, but Iran can deploy another small boat, mobile launcher, drone swarm or naval mine and keep the Strait of Hormuz too dangerous for normal commercial traffic. Tehran does not need to sink the United States Navy; it only needs to frighten insurance companies and shipping corporations. It does not need to invade Israel; it only needs to force America to expend a finite supply of interceptors protecting it. It does not need to win spectacularly; it only needs to make the war longer, wider and more expensive than Washington can politically, economically or militarily sustain. And speaking of traps, are you aware that Iran is right now targeting 7 US states in cyberattacks on our water systems? Iran has spent 47 years planning for this war, Trump looks like he hasn’t spent 47 minutes preparing America for this confrontation.

Iran is not ‘decimated’, they are taunting Trump with these missile systems

Iran’s Kheibar Shekan is a medium-range ballistic missile that can fly 900 miles, meaning it can threaten the entire Middle East—and beyond. The Kheibar Shekan has become the workhorse of Iran’s missile arsenal during the war with the United States. Now, U.S. officials say Iran’s attacks are growing more and more complex, and that’s making the missile even more dangerous for American troops.

This is how a superpower wins battle after battle and still loses the war. Trump’s military can bomb Iran into rubble, but it cannot bomb into existence a coherent strategy that was missing from the beginning. The Iranian government remains in power, Hormuz remains paralyzed, and Iran’s proxies remain active. China is helping Tehran rebuild its defenses. American servicemen have been killed and wounded. Gulf oil infrastructure is under attack, commercial vessels are being struck, American citizens are being warned to leave the region, and U.S. allies are openly questioning whether Washington has either the resources or the leadership necessary to bring this disaster to an acceptable conclusion. Yikes.

Donald Trump is failing in Iran, and he is failing according to the standard established by his own promises. He said Iran had been obliterated; Iran is still fighting. He said the war was nearly over; it is expanding. He said Hormuz would reopen; it remains effectively closed. He promised strength; his generals are warning of scarcity. He promised victory; America’s allies now fear strategic defeat. This war was sold as a dazzling display of American supremacy, but it has become a grinding demonstration of American vulnerability. Trump expected shock and awe to bring Iran to its knees. Instead, Iran discovered that it does not have to defeat America—it only has to survive America. The president who promised to ‘end endless wars’ is now trapped inside one of his own making, and every fresh bombing raid is becoming further evidence that the previous bombing raids failed.

Even Fox News is forced to admit now that Trump has caused a massive depletion in US missile supplies, and it is changing the course of the war with Iran. https://t.co/jeC39Lls0v
