Hugh Hewitt: Our War, Our Ally and the Hinge Point of History

Monday, March 30, 2026

The United States has allies in this battle with Iran, though you’d be hard-pressed to prove it from coverage in mainstream media.

Israel has fought valiantly beside us, absorbing the blows that the enemy wishes it could rain down on our country. We in America ought to at least bring their stories forward.

Israel has been at war with Iran since its proxy Hamas launched the attack on October 7, 2023, and the massacre that followed.

Right now: The American and Israeli militaries are methodically smashing the military that the Iranian radical regime has built up over 47 years. If it was a boxing match, the referee would stop the fight. But it’s a war, and the target list is long and it’s not done.

This battle is the story of this decade, and its outcome one of those very few-and-far between hinge points of history that are obvious as they occur, such as the fall of the Berlin Wall.

Our legacy outlets ought to be telling the story. The whole story.
