@OWRfreedom @mtracey China alters it. Closing the Strait is bad for China.

@mtracey The argument against your assertion --which claims Trump has supreme agency on foreign policy, is; US foreign policy has not deviated from what appears to be a central govt script over the last 40 yrs or so, in regards to ME. A series of POTUS admins, were feckless to alter it.

Can we get a big emotional Podcaster Reckoning over how Saudi Arabia is "dragging" or "tricking" hapless Trump into a ground troop deployment in Iran?

@mtracey Or maybe the depths of Trump's malevolence toward Iran'leaders and wish to clip China' energy supply wings are deeper than generally realised.

@famke03709014 @nexta_tv Europe has 7% of the world population yet 60% of the worlds welfare. Economically speaking, Europe is stagnant compared to America, which accounts for over 60% of the NATO budget.

@CidySean @nexta_tv Europe holds 40% of foreign assets in US-Debts. 64% of our defense budget went to US military industry. Do you really think the US could pay a slingshot on it's own? That was the deal: we pay, the USA secure. US doesn't want to? We stop paying. Easy.

The US is no longer the same: Finland’s president on Washington’s new role Alexander Stubb said that America no longer behaves like a “benevolent hegemon” and has become far more unpredictable. According to him, the US at least used to consult allies and the UN before carrying out strikes. In his view, Europe is now left to “save what it can.”

@FredBoonen @FurkanGozukara TRUMP is silly to kill.two birds with one stone?

@CidySean @FurkanGozukara You clearly don't know the fuck about global oil trade.

Total humiliation for the US Navy. General McMaster admits they cannot open the Strait of Hormuz alone and are begging Poland and Japan for mine clearing ships. He confesses it will take at least 30 days just for them to arrive. The US is completely trapped.

@FeedMuslims2dog @Microinteracti1 Yes, but Iran is not an Arab nation. IRAN'S support for the Palestinians is a way to keep the Arabs on Iran' side.

@Microinteracti1 Lets see, Iran attacking the Arab states has turned them all openly against them. Thats insanely bad planning on Iran's part.

Trump has admitted, in a single sentence, that his administration started a war without once stopping to consider what the enemy might do next. This isn’t bad planning. This is the worst planning in the history of human civilization. And I include in that list the man who designed the Titanic’s lifeboat capacity, the general who ordered the Charge of the Light Brigade, and whoever greenlit the Ford Edsel. Napoleon, for all his faults, was aware that Russia had a winter. Hitler, deranged as he was, knew Stalingrad existed. Bush at least had a map with Baghdad on it. Trump, apparently, had not considered that Iran might hit back. 99.99% of the world’s population saw this coming. Analysts. Journalists. Retired geography teachers. Teenagers eating cereal at midnight. My neighbor’s dog, probably. Every single one of them. Except the man who started the war and FoxNews. Gandalv / @Microinteracti1

@No_Kings1 @Microinteracti1 Or part of the plan from the beginning. THE US has an abundance of oil and gas, while China has none at all.

@america_dreamer @Microinteracti1 @ogafroman Reagan never used military force against Iran. No pres did until Trump.

@Microinteracti1 @ogafroman figured it out

@ZuranoAlvaro @Microinteracti1 @HansWidmer A writer on cultural Zionism spoke of the strong, confident man who comes and sees and conquers, much to the chagrin of the self-styled "wise," who holds back in every situation.

@Microinteracti1 @HansWidmer

@KamilGrka3 @Microinteracti1 How is it a mess. He is settling accounts with Iran for '79, and cutting China off from oil and gas. A master strategem.

@Microinteracti1 If you're wondering how a master tactician like Trump could get into the Hormuz mess, remember that this is the same visionary who promised to wrap up the Russo-Ukrainian war in 24 hours.

General McCaffrey doesn’t use words like “bombshell.” He uses words like “no one in their right mind.” A four-star general is now saying publicly what the situation demands: invading Iran was never a rational choice. It was chosen anyway. And the nuclear program? Untouched. The stated objective of the entire operation is still sitting there. Whatever was hit, it wasn’t that. Washington is now in the position every strategist dreads. Too far in to walk away. Too exposed to escalate. No victory condition. No exit ramp. Iran has 90 million people, mountainous terrain, and four decades of preparation for exactly this scenario. The trap is closed. McCaffrey said it out loud. In uniform. Gandalv / @Microinteracti1

@adl0107 @Microinteracti1 @Premium2Truth China' energy cut off.

@Microinteracti1 @Premium2Truth

@Pinguuugnip @Microinteracti1 @CaramelleH Strategic bankruptcy. If you believe that the Strait being closed was not part of Trump's plan, you don't understand the depths of his malevolence (towards China as well as Ukraine).

@Microinteracti1 @CaramelleH Are you surprised?

@WW3finalboss Germany is already by far the greatest net contributor to the EU. When Ukraine joins the EU (Russia nas dropped its objections), Germany will have to help with the huge additional EU levelling up payments to Ukraine. It's 50km belt of territory that Russia demands Ukraine cede.

🇩🇪🇺🇦 Germany signals a harder line on Ukraine "Ukraine needs a strong army and should not be forced to cede any of its territory".. - Friedrich Merz 🇩🇪 That’s a clear shift in tone from Berlin, less talk of compromise, more emphasis on strength and sovereignty. The message is pretty direct, no land for peace, and Ukraine stays armed.

@NXT4EU India has a space program.

We believe Europe needs a Moon program. Similarly how Kennedy united the US with a great goal, Europe will be united via common goals we can all be proud of achieving, together. Because apart, Europe isn't a player, but a pawn.

@DakdaR22 Well has dropped its objection to Ukraine joining EU. So Poland can now step up and become a net contributor to the EU. You don't think Germany can pay for the levelling up payments to Ukraine that will be necessary, do you?

- Donald Tusk- PM.of Poland: "This war was not Ukraine's or Zelensky's choice. Their choice was to defend themselves against an aggressor, defend their state and their citizens, and defend their dreams of freedom, human rights, and of joining NATO and the EU. For Poland, this is about aggression versus self-defense, and about Ukraine’s right to choose its future, including NATO and the EU. Thank you for your support 😉 🫡

@PhillipsPOBrien He is hurting Iran and China most.

Hi All, I originally pressed send on this piece before Trump announced his ceasefire of sorts. I went ahead and updated it with information about that. What Trump has done is strongly support the central argument of the piece. The US does not want regime change in Iran and might be pursuing the worst example of “mowing the grass” in history.

@Mylovanov Actually, that is more true of Trump, who has been publically calling for attacks on Iran since 1979. Since then, he has added China as a county that must be contained. And the closing of the strait hurts China more than any other country. So he kills two birds with one stone.

Bolton: Iran's ideology has not changed since 1979. I don't think you can negotiate with it and believe that they'll adhere to their commitments in good faith. The only way to get to peace and stability in the Middle East is to get a new regime in Iran. 1/

@JPLindsley @Telegraph @ZaluzhnyiUA Trump war was planned to close the Strait. Done deliberately to cut China off from Iran

In a @Telegraph op-ed, former Ukrainian commander-in-chief @ZaluzhnyiUA argues that Ukraine's resistance to Russiaa has already shattered the old global order. He writes that Ukraine’s battlefield innovations, especially the widespread use of cheap, highly effective drone technologies, have fundamentally transformed warfare, enabling even smaller nations to wield disproportionate power and turning traditional strategies obsolete. Applying these lessons to the Middle East, General Zaluzhnyi, now the Ukrainian ambassador to the UK, cautions that any ground invasion of Iran would be catastrophic, as modern “kill zones” dominated by drones make conventional troop deployments suicidal and economically devastating. His central message is stark: the world is entering a new era of war that few fully understand, where technological asymmetry and attritional conflict replace decisive victories, and where Ukraine, paradoxically, is among the few nations already adapted to this harsh new reality. What do you think of General Zaluzhnyi's ideas? telegraph.co.uk/world-news/202… UnderFire.News

@shashj Yes. Safer from CHINA.

It's incredible how far beyond his mandate & NATO consensus Rutte is pushing this issue.

@FurkanGozukara The real target is China, which has no oil or gas.

The most brutal 40-second summary of Trump's disastrous Iran war. James O'Brien completely dismantles the incoherent, contradictory lies being fed to the public about nuclear capabilities, regime change, and the Strait of Hormuz. Absolute humiliation.

@JohnCleese It is very sad to see eminent people such as Mearshiemer peddling this absurd canard.

This makes very good sense
