In 2024, I joined a law professor mission to Israel hosted by the @WorldJewishCong to bear witness to October 7 and its aftermath. We met with officials, hostage families, and we visited the sites of the Hamas atrocities. We also watched the compilation film of the Hamas selfie videos on October 7. The link to my Substack essay about what I learned from those videos is in the first reply.

I hope to soon make available to the general public recordings of my lectures in my final year of teaching at Pepperdine University. They will be offered wi thout charge and in the hope that whoever downloads them will make them available, also without charge, to as many people as possible; for example, by posting them on his website if he has one. The lectures will be accompanied by the pdf version of my main written work, Capitalism: A Treatise on Economics. Here's the link to it: drive.google.com/open?id=1hUVjK…

I'm sorry, Michael, but this is simply not true. The Islamic regime Iran has been in a *declared* war against the U.S. since 1979. Here's just a few of the facts demonstrating the continuous attacks and attempted attacks on U.S. citizens, servicemen, and officials in the Islamic regime's war against the U.S. (there's too many to list in a single X post): The Mullahs call the U.S. the "Great Satan" (and Israel is the "Little Satan"), and have chanted (and acted) on "Death to America" from 1979 up through today. The Mullahs' first act of war was endorsing the invasion of the U.S. embassy and taking U.S. citizens hostages in 1979 within months of their Islamic revolution; literally, a casus belli under international law. If this wasn't enough, Iran directly killed 241 U.S. Marines and soldiers in Beirut in 1983 (thru its terrorist proxy army of Hezbollah). The Islamic regime also killed innumerable U.S. soldiers in the Iraq War through its terrorist proxy armies there. It's also killed an estimated 50-100 U.S. citizens over the past four decades through continuous terrorist attacks by its many sponsored terrorist groups around the world. The Mullahs have tried to assassinate U.S. citizens and others in the U.S. In addition to the direct killing of U.S. civilians and soldiers by the Islamic regime of Iran, the Mullahs actively planned to assassinate a U.S. president - twice. Again, this is a casus belli under international law. At this point, the Islamic regime of Iran has killed far more Americans than the Nazis had in December 1941 when the U.S. declared war on the Nazis. According to the logic that there must be a mushroom cloud over NYC or Tel Aviv before considering the Islamic regime a threat, the U.S. was completely unjustified in declaring war on the Nazis in December 1941 because it had no interests at stake. The Nazis weren't directly threatening the U.S. in 1941. This is undeniable. But unlike with the Nazis on December 8, 1941, the U.S. is already in a war declared against it by the Islamic regime of Iran in 1979. It's been a war with continuous and repeated attacks on U.S. citizens and officials for 47 years. The U.S. military response to the Islamic regime of Iran today is no different than the U.S. response to Nazi Germany in 1941 - it is justified self-defense by the U.S. In fact, as I mentioned, it's even more justified today than in December 1941, because Americans have been dying at the hands of the Islamic regime of Iran, which has been in an explicit holy war against the U.S. since 1979. If anything, the military response by the U.S. in 2026 to the Islamic regime's acts of war is 46 years too late.

And America was confused …

Apparently I'm a billionaire shill, and an Israeli embassy asset. But I think my checks are getting lost in the mail. So, for my handlers & anyone else who actually wants to help, I have a new website: Nikos.org Pass it to your favorite oligarch, or Mossad agent.

I'll be performing around the country throughout the first half of 2026, come enjoy the show! Get tickets here: itzhakperlman.com

#Repost @riliongracie ・・・ Today I would like to pay tribute to a true icon of martial arts and cinema: Chuck Norris. I had the great honor of meeting him when he promoted the very first Gracie Jiu-Jitsu seminar in the United States, bringing a team of Gracie family members — including myself — to teach and share our art. It was a historic moment and a privilege to witness his genuine interest in learning about our Jiu-Jitsu. Chuck Norris has always been an extraordinary martial artist — disciplined, respected, and admired around the world. But what impressed me most was his humility and openness to learn. After being introduced to Gracie Jiu-Jitsu, he became deeply fascinated by the art and went on to become one of its great supporters and promoters here in the U.S., helping present the effectiveness and philosophy of our Jiu-Jitsu to the American public. His contribution goes far beyond the screen. He helped open doors, build bridges between martial arts communities, and inspire generations of practitioners. My deepest respect and gratitude to this great warrior, artist, and human being. REST IN PEACE CHUCK NORRIS 🙏 Oss. #gracieelitenortmiami #gracieelitecoralgables #rga #gjj #selfdefense

Chuck Norris, the martial arts champion, emblematic Eighties tough-guy, and 'Walker, Texas Ranger' star, has died at age 86.

George Lucas was heavily inspired by the films of the National Film Board. From showing him the power of special effects, to the idea of The Force, the NFB had a big impact on him.

@kevin_nealon When Adam Sandler says hi to you does he say Ke Von Nee Lon. I just imagine he would.

I have my mother’s phone number in my contact list still. She passed away. People that pass away in my contact list, I don’t delete them because it just seems so insensitive. I leave them in there. But I’ll put this emoji 😵 next to the name so I don’t call them, get all bummed out and be like oh that’s right they died. You know what I mean? I called my mother a couple weeks ago and this guy named Hector answered the phone. I said this used to be my mother’s phone number and I thought I was gonna hear her voice when you answered. He goes oh what does she sound like? Maybe I do an impression of her. I said no, cause I’ll know it’s you now cause you told me you’re gonna do that, and he hung up on me. But what Hector doesn’t know is because he has my mother’s phone number now, by default he’s my emergency contact.
