DARRYL'S WEEKLY BRIEFING
The Week That Was
Sunday 08 March 2026
Hen Mazzig posted overnight that in the early morning of yesterday, residents of northern Israel received alerts of incoming missiles from the regime in Iran, just as the call to morning prayer rang out from mosques.
The regime in Iran targeted hundreds of thousands of Muslims who call northern Israel their home, at the exact moment they were meant to begin morning prayers.
During Ramadan.
This regime is not defending any religion, only their own hold on power.

Yet again, a highly pertinent posting from Hen Mazzig overnight. He’s an incredible young man who, unlike so many of his contemporaries, always has his finger on the pulse when it comes to the reality on the ground, especially in the Middle East.
Here’s eyewitness testimony from just a few of the Israeli hostages who were taken on the October 7:
Arbel Yehoud: “What I endured lasted from the very beginning to the very end.” She has told of being sexually assaulted by terrorists almost every single day during her 482 days of captivity with the Palestinian Islamic Jihad. Her captivity was so horrific that she attempted to take her own life three times.
Romi Gonen: “I was going to be his sex slave for life…” She was sexually assaulted by four different men on separate occasions during her captivity in Gaza, including a “nurse” who was supposed to care for her wounds.
Amit Soussana: “A Hamas terrorist dragged me and forced me to perform a sexual act.” She described being sexually assaulted by her captor while held hostage. Every day, he would ask when her period would end so he could finally have his way with her.
Ilana Gritzewsky: “On the way to Gaza, when they started to touch me and sexually abuse me, I passed out…I couldn’t handle it anymore.” She woke up on October 7 in Gaza with a broken pelvis, half-naked, her breasts exposed, and her pants pulled down, surrounded by seven terrorists.
Alon Ohel: “He puts shampoo in his own hand and starts scrubbing me in the shower.” He was sexually abused by his captor while he showered.
Sasha Troufanov: “I noticed the camera and I took the shower trying to avoid my private parts toward this angle, but I had to shower.” He said that his captor repeatedly tried to force him to perform a sexual act on himself. He also revealed that he was filmed by a camera while showering.
Dafna Elyakim: “He would always tell me that he was coming with me to shower.” Dafna is 15. She said her captor touched her constantly and told her she would stay in Gaza to marry him and have his children.
Rom Braslavski: “The goal was to crush my dignity. Tied up naked. Abused. It was the most horrific thing. It’s something even the Nazis didn’t do.” He revealed that the Palestinian Islamic Jihad terrorists sexually abused and humiliated him. They stripped him naked, tied him up, abused and tortured him.
Guy Gilboa Dalal: “He took me out of the shower and touched me all over my body.” He said his Hamas captor sexually assaulted him after a shower, holding a gun to his head and a knife to his throat.
Aviva Siegel: “The terrible thing for me was watching them torture my husband and what they did to the girls.” She told the UN – yes the UN – that she saw a young girl in captivity crying after her captor followed here into the bathroom and forced her to perform oral sex.
Nova survivor Yuval Sharvit Trabelsi: “I have never heard screams for help like the ones I heard from that woman.”
On October 7, countless bodies were found without underwear, with mutilated genitalia, or with broken pelvises.
Several Nova survivors also testified that they heard terrorists gang-raping women and men during the massacre.
So, here’s what Briahna Joy Gray – American political commentator, Harvard educated lawyer and political consultant who was once National Press Secretary for Bernie Sanders -- had to say about allegations of rape and sexual assault: “I’ll say it again and again because we need to normalise the truth: there is NO evidence of mass rape on October 7th. None. And no American politician who parrots this genocidal lie is qualified for office.”
Sometimes, it’s difficult, isn’t it, to put “Harvard” and “educated” in the same phrase.
And here’s Aaron Maté – Canadian (shamefully, Jewish) writer and journalist – “October 7 was a mass rape hoax. Zero forensic, physical, and visual evidence. Zero identified victims. And zero credible self-described ‘witnesses’. The hoax was used to justify the mass murder of Palestinians.”
I haven’t even detailed the documented and IDF-filmed footage of bodies of victims with blood around their genitals, some with their genitals shot after they were raped, or the testimony of forensic experts who examined the bodies are saw what had been done to them. Or, indeed, footage taken by the terrorists themselves on their Go-Pro body cameras and uploaded to social media to boast about their accomplishments.
There are countless more supposedly intelligent useful idiots around the world parroting this denial shit and adoring morons who lap up every word they say.
A pox on the lot of you.

As the entire world now knows, at this stage, five members of the Iranian Women’s Soccer Team who, with their teammates refused to sing the national anthem of the brutal Iranian regime at a Gold Coast soccer match, have escaped the clutches of their “minders” and have been granted humanitarian visas to stay in Australia.
As stated on the website of the Refugee Council of Australia, this decision recognises the serious safety concerns the players could (I would add ‘will definitely’) face if they were required to return to Iran.
As they say, when people are already in Australia and fear persecution or harm if they return to their home country, they have the right to such protection and to have their claims carefully assessed.
It would, in my view, have been reprehensible for the Albanese government to deny visas in this instance, given that they have, disgracefully, fast-tracked hundreds of visas for residents of war-torn Gaza with very limited security checks, despite the majority of Palestinians having elected Hamas and having supported the October 7 massacre. Even now, a majority of Palestinians would rather elect Hamas to run both Gaza as well as the Palestinian Authority in the West Bank; moreover, the government is clearly providing some sort of assistance to the ISIS brides.
So, credit where credit is due.
And a pox on One Nation for expressing their opposition to this. The entire world was behind the decision to grant the girls asylum.
You have to take each case in an airtight compartment. It doesn’t, as One Nation suggests, “open the floodgates” if properly managed in certain limited cases. It became as clear as day that these girls would be treated as “traitors” upon their return to Iran.
And we know, don’t we, what Iran does to traitors, guilty or otherwise?

Princess Greta:
“The U.S. and Israel bombed oil depots across Tehran over the weekend – killing civilians and causing a catastrophic environmental fallout that could have repercussions for years to come.”
Hen Mazzig:
“Apparently only Israeli and American bombs pollute. Hezbollah’s and the regime’s in Iran’s missiles are biodegradable.”

According to Hen Mazzig, Iranian citizens woke up yesterday seeing an SMS from the Bank Sepah and Bank Meli, telling them their account had been blocked. According to the regime, this is a “Central Bank technical upgrade to communication switches for network stability,” but in reality, according to Mazzig, they are robbing their citizens in broad daylight.
Of course, it might be possible that banks’ data centres have been hit by the bombing. If so, why wouldn’t the regime say so? Oh, right, that would call for honesty. In any event, when it comes to the Iranian regime, who knows?
That aside, it is interesting to note that amid all the suffering, financial as well as physical, of the Iranian people, regime leaders are doing very well, thank you very much.
The recently deceased Ayatollah, for example, liked to boast of a simple and modest lifestyle.
In reality, he was the head of a financial network with numerous luxury properties in several countries (including Spain and the UK) and bulging bank accounts in tax havens.
His inheritance is estimated to be around $200 billion, a figure that would comfortably place him in the top 10 on the Forbes list of billionaires.
His son, Mojtaba, has amassed a $3 billion empire, including 11 luxury properties in London worth well over $100 million.
None of these properties or financial assets are registered in his own name. They are held through intermediaries and shell companies, deliberately designed to conceal ownership and avoid sanctions.
And, according to Mazzig, Masoud Khamenei, who controls Renault vehicle sales in Iran is worth $500+ million.
Meysam Khamenei is worth $200+ million.
Boshra Khamenei is worth $100+ million
And Hoda Khamenei is worth $100 million.
All of these figures are in US dollars.
Not one member of this family needs to steal money from impoverished citizens.
Then there is Hamas, fully funded by Iran. Hamas leader Haniyeh’s son is shown in a photograph on Mazzig’s post lying across a bed in a hotel room in Qatar, state sponsor of terrorism, obviously in the lap of luxury while Gaza citizens suffered. His father was worth $4 billion.
Another photograph showed Hamas leader, Khaled Mashai, playing table tennis, apparently in his luxury hotel in Qatar. His reputed worth, $5 billion.
As Mazzig points out, the Khamenei family is richer than Rihanna, Beyonce and even Taylor Swift. All of their money was stolen from the Iranian people.

The Wall Street Journal has reported that Iranian citizens are the ones who provide Israel with information about the regime in Iran for the Air Force attacks.
Apparently, the attack on the Basij militia checkpoints yesterday was made possible thanks to the countless reports from Iranians instructing the IDF.
Let that sink in.
While the Left and mainstream media bleats about breach of “international law”, human rights and the rest of their insufferable bullshit, ordinary citizens in Iran are directing airstrikes on their own country.

Here’s Douglas Murray writing in the New York Post yesterday:
“For years excitable figures have warned that any attack on Iran would start World War III. The fact that the regime in Iran has spent decades trying to develop a nuclear weapon was always a problem for these people. After all, if a terrorist regime is developing a nuclear weapon and says it is going to use that weapon, what exactly is the world meant to do? Sit back and let it happen?
“That’s what much of the world seemed happy to do. Or rather, they hoped that someone would take the problem off the world’s hands for them. And so it fell to the governments of Israel and the United States of America to step up. To do what the German chancellor recently called the world’s ‘dirty work’ for the rest of the planet.
“But there are reasons why World War III has not remotely kicked off. The first is that for the past three years the Israelis have taken out each of the Iranian Revolutionary Government’s terrorist armies one by one.
“And now for the past two weeks, with America leading the way, they have taken the battle to the head of the snake. People should be under no illusions. The success of this American-led campaign has been extraordinary. The world’s biggest sponsor of terror has been hit in every single place where it hurts.
“Some people in Washington want hostilities to cease immediately. Others want them to stop before the operation is complete. Of course nobody wants this war to go on a day longer than necessary. But this job can’t be left half-finished.
“After all, a future US president might not have the resolve to stop the Mullah’s and their ambitions. Some day we’ll get another Jimmy Carter or Joe Biden.[1] Trump rightly started this historic mission. And he’s the only person who will also be able to finish it. But on America’s terms.”
[1] He could have added: ‘or worse, Barak Obama’.
