The Window of Opportunity Was Ajar and Only The Israelis and Trump Breathed In Its Air

Nadene Goldfoot                     

                         The Book of Esther in Bible

The question continues to be asked by all the reporters, why now?  Why did the USA join Israel in attacking Iran?  I have the answer.  

It was destined by a force no one can yet understand, that certain events would happen at the same time.  Purim, a holiday of remembrance of history that took place in  a huge empire about 1,513 years ago, that held many Jews.                      

Jews had been remembering this close call to their being, their religion if you wish ever since that day.  It was a happy memory and celebrated  in that manner.  We celebrated it again last Monday.  

God commanded the Jewish people in the Torah to remember and observe several specific holy days, primarily outlined in Leviticus 23. These include the weekly Sabbath (Shabbat), the three major pilgrimage festivals (1.Passover, 2. Shavuot, 3. Sukkot), and the High Holy Days of 4. Rosh Hashanah (Feast of Trumpets) and 5. Yom Kippur (Day of Atonement)

Jews knew that this event of being saved from extinction needed to be remembered and celebrated as well. They didn't realize it would be copied in the future by a Hitler doing Haman's work 1,540 years from then starting in the 1930's CE/AD.  

                       Queen Esther with son Darius

 Jews were to be killed which was brought about by Haman. Under King Xerxes I (in Hebrew-Ahasueros(reigned 486–465 BC), (Queen Esther  lived during the 5th century BC, roughly between 487 and 465 BC, in the Persian capital of Susa. As queen to King Ahasuerus (commonly identified as Xerxes I, who reigned 486–465 BCE), she lived during the period of Persian rule over the Jewish diaspora. the Achaemenid Persian Empire was at its peak, forming the largest empire in the world up to that point.) It spanned approximately 5.5 million square kilometers (about 2.1 million square miles) and covered parts of three continents: Asia, Africa, and Europe.   This took place about 1,487-1,465 years ago according to my figures.                             

             Esther Denouncing Haman (1888) by Ernest Normand

This would have been complete extermination of all Jews in the world !  

So this special window creaking to open a bit of the special air coming through brought on Persia's new kingships of Ayatollah's  of the Islam faith of  Shi'a that had become murderous.  The leadership had taken on Hitler's position of the aim to kill all Jews. They kept their own Jews living in Persia for last as a ruse to their aims.  Their plan was unique.  They spent so much time arming all their henchmen in other countries dependent on them, Persia-now called Iran, that they neglected  their own basic duties keeping water running or food growing in their land.  Hence, a Rebellion leading to Revolution !!! Tousi has it all documented !!!

People, young and bright, realized this as they were losing their jobs, money, and were becoming desperate.  They took to the streets and rebelled, finding other like young people there as well.  (They opened the window a wee bit)


 Reza Pahlavi (born 1960). Known as the Crown Prince of Iran,  has lived in exile (USA) since the 1979 Islamic Revolution and is a prominent political opposition figure calling for a democratic, secular state in Iran.  He has been its leader of a Revolution since the beginning.  Reza opened it wider.  The West has not been mentioning him, but Tousi in England has.  He has TV hookup from Iran during their blackout that is showing what is happening to the Rebels.  I remember 60 minutes also doing an hour on Reza.  Possibly it's to keep him alive, safe from the goons that go around shooting and killing for the Ayatollas in power.

                         Palestinians of 2 camps who could never work together,  fed ammunition to use against Israelis by Iran as Iran did to all countries they helped to develop hatred for Israel such as Syria, Lebanon, and the terrorists of like Hamas and Hezbollah, etc. .   

Israel was facing instant death of all of them with Iran's intercontinental missiles with nuclear power that Iran promised to hit them with.  The day of Iran's success in creating such a air missile death was almost upon them!  Evidently the rest of the world was unmoved by such a threat, even though it included the USA who was called the big Satan;  Israel being the little Satan by Iran's measurement.  Israelis saw a window open on PURIM !

          Israeli Air Force, flying in tandem with USA over Iran the first time hitting sites they thought were now gone forever...

In the meantime, Israel has been joined by the USA's Trump who gave the people his promise of help if the Ayatollah started to kill the rebels, and he had ships in the water aimed for Iran. 

So we have Purim,  A Revolution in Iran led by Crown Prince Reza , an Israel living under daily threats of atomic bomb carried by Iran's intercontinental missile, and Iran was only weeks away from making it.  Trump, who has Jerad, a Orthodox Jewish son in law and may have inhaled some of Jerad's air blowing in his home, and his advisors as to attacking Iran, and it coincided with Israel's plan.   Four puzzle pieces fitting together in a once in a lifetime plan was taking place. The plan took place over a 1,600 Years ago with Purim.   The window of opportunity was here, blowing in the air only special people could breathe in, evidently;  those who are part of of the puzzle. 

On October 2024, Trump hit the sites to make such missiles.  

Israel has just repeated the job according to ynet news below, again hitting the same sites after finding Iran had been reviving it.  "The IDF said Thursday it struck the Taleghan site at Iran’s sensitive Parchin military complex, saying Tehran had sought to use the facility to advance capabilities linked to nuclear weapons development. "

Purim Then, Purim Now

 Nadene Goldfoot                                      


We have the holiday of Purim commemorating the rescue of Persian (Iranian) Jewry through the mediation of Queen Esther from the threat of annihilation engineered HAMAN.  Haman was the Chief minister of Ahasuerus, king of Persia (Est.3-9).  His resentment of the independent attitude of Mordecai (uncle of Esther) led him to detest all Jews and he planned their annihilation.  His scheme having been frustrated by Esther, Haman and his sons were hanged.  In memory of their deliverance, the Jews observe the festival of Purim.  Haman is called the "agagite" which was interpreted by the rabbis to indicate his descent from Agag, King of Amalek.  Haman has become synonymous with an enemy of the Jews.  Hitler was so much like Haman.  He even had the same goal.  Today we were facing another Persian king who wanted all Jews (Israel) killed. 

This was a huge empire, and held many Jews.  All were to be killed. Under King Xerxes I (reigned 486–465 BC), the Achaemenid Persian Empire was at its peak, forming the largest empire in the world up to that point. It spanned approximately 5.5 million square kilometers (about 2.1 million square miles) and covered parts of three continents: Asia, Africa, and Europe.  This would have been complete extermination !  

  According to the Book of Esther found in the Bible, the extermination was fixed by lot for the month of Adar 13, but the Jews escaped, successfully resisting their persecutions on that date and in the city of Shushan, also on the next day. Purim is observed on Adar 14, and the following day is observed as Purim in cities which have been walled since the time of Joshua (e.g.Jerusalem). 


Queen Esther, wife of King Ahasueros, (Megillata Esther). is the main character in this piece of history.   The date of its composition is generally placed in the Persian Period before 330 BCE.  In 2nd Temple times, the Scroll of Esther was already included in the canon.  Its reading on Purim was made obligatory, and a special talmudic tractate was written on the relevant regulations.  

Here we have a woman of power she didn't know she had who saved her people.  This event happened about 1,300 years ago or in about 350 BCE.  

                                The king greeting Esther

King Ahasuerus (Hebrew: Aḥašwēroš) in the Bible is identified as the Persian King Xerxes I (Greek: Xérxēs). Reigning from approximately 486–465 BC, he is best known historically for his failed invasion of Greece and for his role as the husband of Esther in the Book of Esther.

The Hebrew timeline never follows the historical, but here is off over 100 years.  

Between 350 and 330 BCE, the Achaemenid Persian Empire experienced extreme instability, internal power struggles, and its ultimate downfall to Alexander the Great. Following the assassination of Artaxerxes III in 338 BCE, a rapid succession of weak rulers and court intrigues culminated in the defeat of Darius III and the burning of Persepolis by Alexander in 330 BCE.                        

Ali Hosseini Khamenei was an Iranian politician and Shia cleric who served as the second supreme leader of Iran from 1989 until his 
assassination during the 2026 Iran war.  Iran has been held by a persecuting government for 47 past years,  causing threats against Israel of anhilation  by nuclear weaponry they had like an atomic bomb.  
Mossad watched their development of such and the USA bombed sites last year but may not have hit the right place. Besides that, many many young people were demonstrating in the streets for Khamenei to step down.  They wanted a new government.  They were bringing on a
 Revolution.   Thus was this window of opportunity;  a time with Trump and Khamenei and the people.  The government has been negligent.  There is no water, no food, no jobs, nothing for these people.  All the money has gone into arming the hateful groups in the Middle East.  .

Twas A Ruse! No One Guessed ! Iran Is Free !

 Nadene Goldfoot                                                

                                                                            

Yesterday at around 5am my time, Israel attacked Iran.  Following were the American planes.  This is war.  One guess is that it will last about 6 days.   What a miraculous feat!  Every bit of it is spectacular, the secretiveness they kept, getting there and fueling, hitting exact places and people like the Ayatollah who is now dead, and with two countries, Israel and USA, not bumping into each other in the sky. 

The question comes up of WHAT NOW?  Crown Prince Reza Pahlavi (born 1960) is the exiled Crown Prince of Iran, serving as a prominent opposition figure against the Islamic Republic and advocating for a secular democracy. As the eldest son of the last Shah, he has lived in the U.S. since 1978 and is currently based in the Washington, D.C. area.  He's been guiding the Revolution youth from the USA, and said he would join them when he could get there, I presume, safely.  

I'm waiting for the main newscasters to say something about this as they all, including Trump and Netanyahu, seem to know nothing about it.  I can't imagine the Crown Prince not telling them of his plans.

Becoming Displaced For What?

 Nadene Goldfoot

  The Parchin military complex is located approximately 30 km (20 miles) southeast of Tehran, Iran. It is a massive facility focused on weapons production. Reports indicate it was struck by Israeli forces in October 2024, and later in June 2025 during conflict, with recent reports showing Iran rebuilding.

PARCHIN CYLINDER  Did the USA get these last year?  The Parchin cylinders are large, specialized metal chambers located at Iran’s Parchin military complex (southeast of Tehran) that the IAEA suspects were used to conduct high-explosive tests related to designing a nuclear weapon trigger in the early 2000s. The facility, involving a ~4.6 x 19-meter vessel, was allegedly designed for hydrodynamic experiments involving conventional explosives and potentially uranium, according to IAEA analysis.

Trump is at a dead end in deciding what to do now that Iran refuses to make a deal.  Trump is not happy with their stubborn decision.

In the meantime, everyone has been told to get to safer ground;  like Americans in Israel.  Trump has gone on and on for the past month, and still cannot face the fact of the Iranian insistence to have nuclear weapons so they can blow up Israel and of course, USA itself,   Yes, The Ayatollas are a hard one to fathom.  Trump is like the bully  who once he has to face his enemy is backing off and running.  I could be wrong and this could be a ruse to surprise Iran.  Now that is everyone has become displaced in this waiting game  of his, they may be off their guard.  It's getting old.  This window of opportunity is only open for a short time.  How long can the Revolutionaries keep up their strength?  

A Jewish lady by the name of Catherine Perez Shakdam has met senior Iranian officials and her experience tells her that they are more afraid of Netanyahu than anything.  Catherine Perez-Shakdam is a French journalist, political analyst and commentator. She specializes in West Asian and Islamic affairs. Shakdam is a former consultant for UNSC on Yemen and she is an expert on Islamic terrorism, radicalization and antisemitism.  During her studies at the University of London, she met a Muslim man from Yemen and later acted like she converted to Sunni Islam during their marriage. However, she later became a Shia Muslim and wrote several books and many articles about Shia Islam. She divorced her husband in 2014 and has custody of her two children. As of 2022, she now identifies as a Jew.  She was born a Jew.  She remains a Jew.

England and Sweden Ahead Of USA News

 :Nadene Goldfoot                             

Gothenburg rally marks 109 weeks of “No to Execution Tuesdays” and backs Iran uprising — February 24, 2025. " Gothenburg (Swedish: Göteborg) is in Sweden. Located on the country's west coast, it is the second-largest city in Sweden after Stockholm. Founded in 1621, it is a major industrial city, a significant port, and the capital of Västra Götaland County. '"  This picture shows that the Revolution (Uprising) was even known in Sweden, but in the USA???

The UPRISING of last year is called a REVOLUTION  by those involved.  Tousi (tousi.tv)   in England seems to be the only video involved. He was found by me on YouTube.  

Uprising/Revolution shown by Le Monde:  GalleryImages that capture the scale of the brutally suppressed protests that swept Iran between December 28 and January 11 are rare. Some NGOs report at least 18,000 people dead. Iranian photographer Yalda Moaiery managed to transmit her images of the January 8 demonstrations and the funeral of a man killed by the regime.

The 2025–2026 uprising in Iran has seen a broad coalition of social groups join the anti-regime movement, including labor unions (oil/gas workers), pensioners, and students. Critically, residents in the religious center of Qom and various ethnic minorities (Kurds, Baluchis) have joined protests, while five major Kurdish parties formed a political-military alliance against the regime   

The deal with Iran that Trump was up against a wall about was this:Iran enters critical talks on its nuclear programme with the US on Thursday, insisting a deal is in reach as long as Washington sticks by its willingness to concede Iran’s symbolic right to enrich uranium, allow Tehran to dilute its stockpile of highly enriched uranium, and not to impose controls on Iran’s ballistic missile programme.'  

Tehran insists deal is possible if Trump abides by preconditions agreed with Witkoff and Kushner !!! Don't these two consider that the uprising/Revolution that was a buy-product of Trump saying he's come if lives were being taken was taken seriously and the young people of Iran are being slaughtered by the Ayatollah's henchmen?   NO DEAL CAN BE MADE WITH THIS AUTHORITARIAN REGIME !  IT IS LIKE MAKING A DEAL WITH THE DEVIL !  ALL THEY WANT TO DO IS WIPE OUT ISRAEL AND THE VERY BAD WESTERN USA ! Iran (Ayatollah present government) will say anything.

As of February 27, 2026, the USS Gerald R. Ford aircraft carrier strike group is positioned near the coast of Iran/Israel, joining the USS Abraham Lincoln in the region. This massive U.S. naval buildup, including over 16 ships, acts as deterrence amid high-tension nuclear negotiations and threats of potential military action.

  • U.S. Presence: The USS Gerald R. Ford arrived in the eastern Mediterranean/Middle East region on Feb. 27, 2026, following a four-day stop in Crete, bringing significant naval power to the area.
  • Context: These movements are part of a major military build-up in response to ongoing tensions, with President Trump threatening action if Iran does not meet nuclear demands.
  • Iranian Reaction: Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) naval forces have conducted drills in the Strait of Hormuz, threatening to disrupt oil routes.
Simultaneously, a Chinese spy ship was reported tracking the U.S. carrier strike group in the Arabian Sea earlier in February 2026.

The Shah of Iran was forced to leave Iran when the Ayatollah took over  His son, now 65 years old, is the leader of the Revolution and says he will remain to do the job of getting elections available for the people.  It is to be a Democracy.  Reza Pahlavi (born October 31, 1960) is the eldest son of Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, the last Shah of Iran, and Empress Farah Diba. As the exiled Crown Prince and head of the House of Pahlavi, he resides in the United States and is a prominent opposition figure advocating for a secular, democratic Iran.

Business As Usual Making Money Hand Over Fist in Post Assad Era

 Nadene Goldfoot                                          


                       Old Russian Katusha rocket launcher                 

The Jerusalem Post headlines is that in post-Assad era, Hezbollah’s era shrinks to cells, smugglers, and cheap rockets - analysis.  The Iranian proxy group once helped sustain Assad’s war machine; now it stands accused of running deniable operations with cheap hardware.                         

     I'll scratch your back while you scratch mine:  Lebanon to Syria through Hezbollah

Now Syrian authorities say what Hezbollah left behind looks different: a small group operating near Damascus with drones, Katyusha rockets, and, according to officials, confessions that the weapons came from Lebanon. This is the period of selling weapons to each other, just as Omran has said.

On February 1, Syria’s new government announced it had dismantled a cell it accused of launching rockets at the Mezzeh district and the nearby military airport. 

Hezbollah’s media relations office rejected the claims, saying the group “has no presence or activity on Syrian soil” and denying any links to armed movements in Syria.

Believing any terrorist group is one's first mistake.  They cannot tell the truth.  They gain their power by being believed, so  they say what they want you to believe.                          

  • Hitler's Concept: Hitler wrote that in the "big lie" there is always a certain force of credibility, and that if a lie is large enough and repeated constantly, the masses will fall for it.

Israeli officials have issued warnings that they would strike Lebanese civilian infrastructure, including an airport, if Hezbollah intervenes in a potential U.S.–Iran conflict. 

The U.S. is evacuating non-essential embassy personnel from Beirut. 

Meanwhile, Prime Minister Netanyahu addressed the Knesset saying the country faces “very complex, difficult days” amid rising tensions with Iran and reaffirmed Israeli readiness to respond forcefully to any attack.
