Interesting. More like a warning than an "it's over."
محمدباقر قالیباف | MB Ghalibaf@mb_ghalibaf

تجاوز صهیونیست‌ها به ضاحیه باردیگر نشان داد آمریکا یا اراده‌ای برای اجرای تعهدات خود ندارد یا توان آن را. با چراغ سبز نشان دادن به رژیم نمی‌توانید امتیاز بگیرید. بازی پلیس بد و پلیس خوب قدیمی شده است. اگر اراده و توان اجرای تعهدات خود را ندارید، سخن گفتن از ادامه مسیر ممکن نیست.

“A geopolitical Chernobyl.” That’s the stark assessment of the US-Israeli war with Iran, from France’s former prime minister Dominique de Villepin. “What we see is a meltdown of the core reactor that is the US leadership.”

Amazing quote from Stephen Miller's high school classmate in this new Jazeera documentary on him: "Having grown up with him, it makes you realize that it isn't the smartest person you went to high school with who's running the country. It's the most shameless person."

@tparsi We are all lucky to have your excellent analysis in the mix, you’ve been an absolutely invaluable — also careful and balanced — voice, especially since this war began.

Friends, many of you have contacted me about the FreePress "story" and that I am set to be deported. I haven't had a chance to write, but will do so shortly on my Substack to explain what happened. Thank you all for all the support you have shown! tritaparsi.substack.com

@Megankstack I know I’m a lone voice here, but it’s utterly repugnant to me that Enron Musk can use his toxic media control to overtly fuel these vicious racist attacks, trampling our national values, yet tomorrow use our economic structures to become a trillionaire via near outright fraud.

There's nothing funny about it, so I'll just say it's surreal to see U.S. commentators so totally ignorant of Belfast they don't grasp that many of the rioters are unionist/loyalist and would fight you for calling them Irish. They do not want Ireland, back or otherwise.

Kilmeade to an agreeing Markwayne Mullin: "In Belfast they're standing up because their leaders have let them down. They're trying to take their country back. They want to label them as racist. All they want to be is Irish. They want Ireland back. And that is what we've been saying for the longest time. I see a lot of the same fights here."

@Megankstack Reminds me of the Irish Americans who'd belligerently tell me to "speak English" when I used a cupla focal at the pub on St. Paddy's. Just not understanding at all.

Also, from the reports I’ve read, these are more like pogroms than protests — masked gangs preying on anyone who’s not white and burning families out of their homes. Disgusting behaviour to cheer on from a distance.

And yes it's kind of mesmerizing to think about the layers of this and immigration and identity and what any of it even means, Irish Americans who never understood anything about Northern Ireland now cheering for their "Irish brothers" against immigrants, there's a lot there.

@clancynewyork @atrupar Hahaha ... if only he realized how many of the rioters would be offended to hear themselves referred to as "Irish."

Not Overheard at the Pentagon (b/c I am not allowed to go there anymore), from GWOT vet in response to the proposed Global War on Terror war memorial, unveiled today: "My idea was to have an eternal flame at the bottom of a big hole that you could just throw money at. That would reenact the war for me."

Do they address us this way bc we are idiots, or are we idiots bc we are addressed this way? Chicken, egg. Or maybe we’re not idiots and people actually want something better?

I watched an entire debate on Platner that ranged all over public morality and his behavior with women and what voters want in a man but nobody ever said a single word about his positions on basic issues or contemplated why a voter might make a strategic choice one way/the other.

I know political coverage remains terrible bc I've been flooded with enough "political" coverage to know more than I ever wanted about both Platt and Platner (despite living in neither LA/Maine), but barely any of the coverage ever mentions what they'd do if elected.

"An assumption of impunity and the willingness to use violence as a political tool are turning Israel into a pariah,” threatening even the country’s "financial and diplomatic lifeline to the United States." trib.al/jHCq1V0
