@EndGameWW3 Wouldn't say "never again" when we have so many fucks arguing how dropping nukes actually saves lives and avoids wars.
Who knows what sort of crazy will lead the next party.

For all the dumb fucks saying Japan WW2, that was simply because we dropped nukes on them, we won't do that ever again unless its all out WW3 with Russia and China... So untill we do something like that again we won't defeat an enemy that looks at death as honorable...
@owenjonesjourno What do you mean exactly by anti-migrant?
Hungary is still in Schengen, so borders are "open" for EU citizens. Magyar is much more Pro-European than Orban was.
Are you saying Magyar is "worse" than Orban because he's keeping the strict external border controls?
It's obviously a relief that Viktor Orban's rule is over.
But there is a major caveat.
His replacement is horribly right-wing - he's even more anti-migrant than Orban.
Hopefully he'll roll back the authoritarianism and stop blocking EU action on e.g. Israel.
According to data from MarineTraffic, there appears to have been an uptick in traffic through the Strait of Hormuz in the last 36 hours, with at least 10 ships transiting and 7 more in progress.
Despite direct support from U.S. Vice President JD Vance and the Trump Administration, almost all polls show Viktor Orbán significantly losing his upcoming bid for Prime Minister of Hungary, with traders on Polymarket pitting his chances at less than 30%.
@EndGameWW3 Of course. Iran soldiers are defending their land, US soldiers are invading.
Difficult to come out as the good guys invading, no matter how strong your propaganda machine is.
Anthony Joshua just DECLINED to face off with Tyson Fury in the ring 😳
“You’re a clout chaser. You ain’t gonna tell me what to do. I’m the boss. You work for me.” 🥶
"Ukraine is a European war, not ours"
Okay. But don’t come knocking on Europe’s door asking for help with Iran five minutes later. Transactional foreign policy works both ways.
We are busy with Russia, don't bother us with Iran.
@McFaul Good chance that Hungary will get kicked out of EU if Orban gets reelected.
Broken EU = much easier to wage trade wars with than the entire bloc which can stand up to the US.
US will campaign for anti-EU parties all over the continent - Weidel and AfD, Le Pen and RN, VOX etc.
What exactly did Orban do to help our war effort in Iran?
Orban supports Putin who supports Iran.
Yes our Vice President is campaigning for his reelection in Hungary right now?
I’m confused. There is no coherency to Trump’s foreign policy.
@VigilantFox Most American people oppose going to war in the Middle East, yet every single republican senator stands behind the decision to send US troops into Iran.
It's an insane cult. Will cost thousands of American lives. Over what, exactly?
Bill Maher presses Democrat Senator to explain why John Fetterman is the ONLY Democrat backing President Trump on Iran.
MAHER: “Is this really the case? There’s only one person in the whole party who thinks differently?”
“You all miraculously came to the exact same conclusion about Iran?”
Here’s how Elissa Slotkin (D-MI) responded:
@sentdefender What a joke. He is clearly trying to calm down the markets, as Iran is firing missiles at entire middle east and their oil.
This is gonna carry on for months, if not years. Us is literally about to send in ground troops.
In a post moments ago on TruthSocial, President Trump stated that they are getting “very close” to meeting their objectives in the Iran War and are considering winding down military efforts in the Middle East directed at Iran, with those objectives including:
1. “Completely degrading Iranian Missile Capability, Launchers, and everything else pertaining to them.”
2. “Destroying Iran's Defense Industrial Base.”
3. “Eliminating their Navy and Air Force, including Anti Aircraft Weaponry.”
4. “Never allowing Iran to get even close to Nuclear Capability, and always being in a position where the U.S.A. can quickly and powerfully react to such a situation, should it take place.”
5. “Protecting, at the highest level, our Middle Eastern Allies, including Israel, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Kuwait, and others.”
President Trump closes the post by stating regarding the Strait of Hormuz: “The Hormuz Strait will have to be guarded and policed, as necessary, by other Nations who use it - The United States does not! If asked, we will help these Countries in their Hormuz efforts, but it shouldn't be necessary once Iran's threat is eradicated. Importantly, it will be an easy Military Operation for them.”
@nexta_tv US actions led to the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, only for them to tell NATO "You'd benefit if this wasn't happening" lmao
Not a single NATO country approved of this war or wants to be dragged in. US went rogue and it's not going well.
Caroline Leavitt was asked why NATO should help Trump after everything has already happened...
After all, the US president did not consult with the defensive alliance before the war began — and now he accuses it of sabotage.
And here’s what the White House responded:
"NATO allies benefit far more from the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz than the US.
It’s significantly beneficial for Europe, and the president wants to see them do more."
Some kind of talk in favor of the poor…
@pwafork Insane irony that the US blocking oil is doing more for Cuba’s green transition than any climate accord ever could. Can't blockade the wind (yet)
@PM_ViktorOrban Orban's entire election campaign is Zelensky, because he has fuck all to offer the Hungarian people.
Hopefully Hungarians will see past that. Young people certainly will, vatniks less likely.
❗️Day 19 of the Ukrainian oil blockade. Our experts are still denied access to the Friendship pipeline while Brussels still refuses to face reality: Europe cannot overcome the energy crisis without cheap Russian oil, yet their sanctions remain in place. In Hungary we protect our families, farmers and businesses with protected prices and secure supplies.
Tomorrow we march for peace. It’s time to push back against Ukrainian blackmail: @ZelenskyyUa will not give orders here!
@ericweinstein I recommend creating a list of decent accounts reporting on wars. All the news and footage appears there few hours before it shows up on MSM.
Obviously this is news on micro-level, not the top headlines.
Here is mine, but you should create your own:
x.com/i/lists/192988…
Is there no place to simply get news on Iran, Israel, the Gulf, US forces and the Middle East?
Everyone is cheerleading for something or the other.
I want to know what is actually happeing to first approximation.
How are you accomplishing this if at all? Thx in advance.
