@TheTHNewspaper The UK and France were calling for ceasefire and coexistence prematurely, all while the IRGC was launching thousands of missiles and drones at these countries!

@AimenDean This is why the UK, France didn’t join. Which you heavily mocked, now calling it rational?

Now it makes perfect sense why the GCC didn’t rush to jump into this war alongside Trump. When your ally swings wildly between escalation and deal-making … One minute talking war, the next chasing an agreement with the very aggressive regime firing thousands of missiles at you, hesitation isn’t weakness, it’s prudence. After absorbing over 6,000 ballistic missiles and drones, the Gulf monarchies had every reason to act. But Trump’s erratic signals and obsession with a deal over decisive action made caution the only rational and wise choice.

I have a feeling - correct me if I’m wrong - that the push by Trump for a ceasefire in Lebanon wasn’t really about Lebanon at all. It was about Iran. For days now, Tehran has been hiding behind the same excuse: no serious engagement, no movement on the nuclear talks, no opening of the Strait of Hormuz, until there’s a ceasefire in Lebanon. So Trump flips the table. Fine. You want a ceasefire in Lebanon? Here it is. Now what? If that was the real obstacle, then Iran has no more cover. They either open Hormuz and engage seriously, or they expose the fact that Lebanon was never the real issue to begin with. And that, to me, explains why Netanyahu went along with it. Not out of goodwill, but to call the Iranian regime’s bluff, and to buy time for more military assets and supplies to reach the region.

@Laura_L_Cellier @zriboua Silly me😅

@AimenDean @zriboua Ahem

No it’s not

@CristianFl46703 No

@AimenDean Are you optimistic about Lebanon's future though?

Lebanon’s President Aoun was set to take a call with President Trump and Prime Minister Netanyahu, today in the middle of a war, for what was presumably ceasefire diplomacy. And he’s being threatened - with talk of civil war, no less - by Hezbollah, cheered on as usual by Lebanon’s Parliament speaker, and immortal vampire, Nabih Berri. Just think about that for a second. A head of state who can’t even take a diplomatic call without asking permission from an armed terror faction that claims to “defend” the country when in fact it is doing Iranian regime’s bidding. At that point, what exactly is left of sovereignty? And of course, this dysfunction doesn’t come out of nowhere. It fits perfectly into the Iranian playbook: stall, intimidate, and use Lebanon as leverage while buying time with the Trump administration. This isn’t 3D chess. It’s 3D BS🤦🏻‍♂️

@hobodayz This picture brings so many memories!🥹 .. Beautiful Ain El Muraiseh in Beirut!

@AimenDean Exactly! Poor Lebanon. But we are all praying for its release from being held hostage. The Saudis even quit going the for vacation.

@gummibear737 @s_m_marandi My dear friend Gummi, I’ve been hearing this kind of rhetoric for 40 years since I was a seven-year-old child growing up in Saudi .. they shout it out loud shamelessly from their TV stations, Radio stations, newspapers, religious sermons! Nothing surprises me anymore!

@s_m_marandi @AimenDean

Because of Netanyahu and Trump, Iran is preparing to destroy everything in the Persian Gulf - including all critical infrastructure in the UAE, Saudi, Qatar, Bahrain, and Kuwait. Temperatures will rise, the Peninsula will become uninhabitable, and the global economy will crash.

@JKash000 Nope 👎🏻

@AimenDean Are you saying the call is not going to take place anymore?

@CaptainCoof @JaneDzisiewski Yes, along with Hezbollah (Imad Mughniyyah) was the planner!

@AimenDean @JaneDzisiewski Aimen - were they involved in Khobar Towers in 96?

I genuinely don’t know whether to laugh or lose my mind anymore at this European hypocritical double standards. When it comes to Vladimir Putin, suddenly it’s Churchillian resolve. No compromise. No dialogue. Arm Ukraine to the teeth, sanction everything that moves, wreck your own energy security if necessary - because tyranny must be confronted. Fine. I actually respect the consistency of that … in isolation. But then you turn around and lecture us - us - the Gulf monarchies, Jordan and Israel, about showing restraint with Tehran? About dialogue? About coexistence? Are you serious? For forty years - forty bloody years - this regime has been waging a shadow war across the region. Militias, proxies, sleeper cells, terror networks, destabilizing entire countries - Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, Yemen - and threatening the Gulf monarchies, Jordan, and Israel nonstop. This isn’t theoretical. This isn’t abstract. This is lived reality. And yet here come Emmanuel Macron, Keir Starmer, and the rest of the European choir, gently advising us to calm down, de-escalate, and - what was it again? - “give diplomacy a chance.” Diplomacy with who, exactly? With a system that has built its entire regional strategy on plausible deniability and proxy terror violence? You were willing to absorb inflation, energy shocks, and political backlash at home to confront Moscow. You made that choice. You said: this is the price of standing up to a tyrant. So don’t come here and tell us - after decades of being on the receiving end - that we should just sit down, smile politely, and “coexist.” Either you believe in confronting tyranny everywhere .. or you don’t. Macron, Starmer, rest of EU leaders and top bureaucrats should just STFU and spare us the self righteous sanctimonious lectures!🤐🤫

@JeremRB01 😅

@AimenDean Dearest Aimen, you must know by now that one of the thing we Europeans most excel at since the advent of Christianity, the French revolution and Rousseau, is pontificating the rest of the world. We still do that incredibly well.

@_degroot_ The governments in UK and France fear the large and out of control Islam as populations in their respective countries! One of the motives why they treat the Iranian regime with velvet gloves!

@AimenDean dear @AimenDean , in your opinion, what does Iran have the UK and FR to offer in exchange for their soft approach towards the islamic revolutionary regime? is it a carrot or a stick?

@Dane_Giraud Thank you for you kind words🙏🏻

@AimenDean Thank G-d for you and your wisdom that so many desperately need to hear 💪🙏

@karandhar89 Nope 🙂‍↔️

@AimenDean TACO

Hang the last IRGC commander with the turban of the last Ayatollah!

@pratikclick It’s not over until the fat lady sings!

@AimenDean What happened to kharg island invasion?

After the peace talks in Islamabad fail as expected, the United States adopts Plan B: a complete blockade of all Iranian maritime trade. Aimen explains this latest move in the Iran War. podcasts.apple.com/ae/podcast/con…
