@AndrewKolvet That sounds like a steaming pile of horse shit from a desperate and defeated Trump regime, because that’s exactly what it is.
English
🚨JUST IN: Was just on a media briefing call with a senior US officials who confirm the MOU with Iran has been signed and outlines the following from their POV:
"In general terms, the deal says if you're willing to behave like a normal country, we're willing to treat you like a normal country. It's performance based."
- Strait of Hormuz is open, but it will take a few weeks to get travel back to normal.
- A signing ceremony on Friday in Geneva including JD Vance, Jared Kushner, Steve Witkoff, and others, and a large Iranian contigent.
- The official stressed that we're here not just because of the last 1.5 years of the Trump administration, but because of the first 4 as well. The sanctions pressures built up and they believe created leverage.
- The reason negotiations have been "very fruitful" was because of the "degredation of [Iran's] economy" and the "scattering of their government which created a lot of internal pressure."
- There a significant new communication channels. The official describes the initial Islamabad meeting as very fruitful, despite not resulting in a deal. It laid the groundwork.
- Operation Project Freedom has been an "unsung hero" in this, resulting in over 7 million barrels of oil a day. That increased US leverage.
- The nuclear talks are described as "technical" in terms of how to retrieve the enriched uranium.
- Stressed this is not "pay for play." They will not get access to markets or release of their funds just for showing up for a meeting.
- There are "fascinating" internal political dynamics playing out in Iran. There are constituencies that want different things. Iran, by all accounts, should be incredibly wealthy.
- "We go in very clear-eyed" that Iran has been a bad faith actor in negotiations for 47 years: "Everything will be verified... all released assets and sanction relief is tied to milestones."
- The US will keep the current military force posture for now to make sure Iran "does what they say they're going to do." The deal contemplates a partial draw down upon the signing of the nuclear deal."
- "One of the aspects of the negotiation that was actually easier than others was the nuclear, because they need our technical expertise to get the dust out."
- Iran would probably love to have a nuclear weapon, but they know US intelligence is so precise that they can't do it in secret and the threat of force is now realized.
- The Gulf States generally love this deal. They saw the JCPOA as empowering Iran to be a bad actor. They see this as a regional deal that pressures Iran to behave and bring stability to the entire region.
- "The full deal will be published soon, but we're still in the building trust phase."

@AndrewKolvet This is a terrible deal and makes the US look weak. They will have a nuke because Trump cucked to Islam. Fucking morons.

To become rich from curing cancer, you have to withhold the cure from people suffering and dying from cancer. So yes, you don't deserve to get rich from curing cancer. Only in an exploitative and unethical system is this seen as acceptable.

If I cure cancer I will get very rich. And a bunch of people on this site will apparently find my sudden wealth outrageous.

I think Muslims have an overly romanticized view of marriage. They talk about it as though it's a romance novel, or a halal substitute for dating, when in reality marriage is mostly responsibility and compromise. And for women, its literally babysitting a fully grown adult male.

why do people on my tl keep crying for marriage? like what???? enjoy as long you are single 🤷🏻♀️

@WashTimes Interesting choice to exclude Social Security and Medicare, by far the two largest welfare programs in existence.

STUDY: Households headed by non-citizens use means-tested welfare programs at substantially higher rates than households headed by U.S.-born Americans in nearly every state.

@KhakanQureshi @thejuggernaut Lmao 😂 A+ for trolling. Stop larping as a Muslim if you don’t believe in the Quran.

@DerekHowell13 @thejuggernaut You've offered absolutely nothing new on the reading.
Come back to me when you find meaning in the story.

Like clockwork, every Pride Month, someone inevitably starts talking about whether Muslims can, in fact, be gay. This year, the latest round arrived courtesy of 5Pillars, a media outlet claiming to be the “voice” of Muslims in the U.K. Its handy “How To Navigate Pride Month” for “Muslims living in the West” offers choice advice: “Muslims who experience same-sex attraction…should seek spiritual support.” Then, 5Pillars set their eyes on some notable targets: London Mayor Sadiq Khan and New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani.
“The Muslim mayor of New York, Zohran Mamdani, celebrates queer and transgender New Yorkers,” said a miffed 5Pillars tweet. The blowback was swift. “My first consideration is the preservation of Islamic purity. If that upsets people, then so be it,” 5Pillars founder Roshan M. Salih, who is of Sri Lankan and Welsh descent, told The Juggernaut. “We don’t condemn people who have same-sex attraction. However…if they act upon that attraction, then they are sinning.” As for Zohran Mamdani? “He was tweeting in favor of LGBTQ Pride, and that is a clear contradiction in the eyes of Muslims.”
But it seemed like no one was talking to the very group that the whole fiasco was about: queer Muslims. What do they have to say? The Juggernaut spoke to many in the community, including Islamic scholars, to find out.

@KhakanQureshi @thejuggernaut I learned by reading the Quran and Hadith. Lusting over men instead of women doesn’t need an analysis lmao 😂 Lusting over men doesn’t mean rape nor sexual assault it is homosexuality and sodomy. You can’t mental gymnastics your way into any other meaning.
English
@DerekHowell13 @thejuggernaut No, I had asked YOU about the analysis, which you didn't bring forth.
Seems you learnt by indoctrination.

@DerekHowell13 @bonchieredstate 41+ times trump has claimed 'the deal is done', 'will be signed any minute' and 'Iran completely defeated'. In your mind believability of Iran is the issue? 😬
English
The most embarrassing defeat in modern American history if true.
And I’m not seeing the administration refute this by actually releasing the text.
Open Source Intel@Osint613
Iranian Mehr News Agency has published the supposed 14 clauses of the MOU $12 billion of Iran's frozen funds to be released before negotiations begin, with another $12 billion during the 60-day final negotiation window. Oil and petrochemical sanctions suspended. Full naval blockade lifted within 30 days. The U.S. commits to non-interference in Iranian affairs, withdrawal of forces from around Iran, and no new sanctions or force deployments during negotiations. An immediate ceasefire is required on all fronts, including Lebanon. The Strait of Hormuz reopens within 30 days under Iranian arrangements. Iran reaffirms its NPT commitment not to produce nuclear weapons. A 60-day window is set to negotiate a final deal covering nuclear issues and full sanctions removal. The U.S. and allies must also present reconstruction plans worth at least $300 billion. Iran's missile program and support for resistance groups are removed from the agenda entirely. No final negotiations begin until the $12 billion is released, oil sanctions are suspended, and the blockade is lifted. A supervisory mechanism will oversee implementation, with any final agreement approved by UN Security Council resolution.

@RoyEMunson9 @bonchieredstate America first isn’t Israel first. They don’t have the same interests as us

@bonchieredstate It’s so insane, and it’s all to get gas under control for the midterms. Our allies and interests be damned.
English
This is coming from White House favorite Pakistan, and it’s the same historically awful deal Iran is claiming.
If it’s not true, then release the text. At least deny it publicly.
That’d be really easy to do.
Aviva Klompas@AvivaKlompas
🚨 Pakistan has published what it claims are the key terms of the U.S.-Iran agreement: ➡️ U.S. sanctions on Iran would be lifted. ➡️ Frozen Iranian funds would be partially released. ➡️ A ceasefire would take effect across all fronts, alongside an Israeli withdrawal from Lebanon. ➡️ Iran’s uranium stockpile and nuclear facilities would remain inside Iran. ➡️ A $300 billion compensation fund would be established for Iran. ➡️ The U.S. embargo on Iran would be removed. ➡️ Iran would assume responsibility for managing the Strait of Hormuz and collecting transit fees. The terms are unconfirmed by Washington or Tehran.

The way I hate Zohran Mamdani with every fiber of my being... His fake smiles make me 🤢

establishment democrats and republicans weren’t fearful he’d fail and ruin nyc. they were worried he’d succeed and represent the threat of a good alternative
🐝@beha_hun
Mamdani closed a $12B deficit in 132 days, fixed 100K+ potholes, secured millions for gig workers, fined corrupt landlords millions, raised snow workers to $30/hr, and violent crime hit historic lows. THIS IS WHAT A LEADER DOES!!

We have to let Zohran run for president

@Libertarian2009 @MMumu87 @shycollie I would say American Muslim women are worse than those in the Muslim world. Don’t want any of their Islamic responsibilities in marriage but know their rights lmao Had a few go crazy I wanted a prenup if they wanted to make it a civil marriage.

@MMumu87 @shycollie Muslim women want best of the both worlds but responsibility of neither.
