Just here for US and Middle East politics, history, and Christian apologetics. I try to connect dots. I definitely don’t pretend to have it all figured out.

Everyone has been scared to call @ShawnRyan762 a Drug dealer. Why? For 3 years YouTube would limit all content if you dared say anything about Shawn Palmisano. Now I know why. He has been protected by @TuckerCarlson @men_odins

Before Trump attacked Iran unprovoked, the Strait of Hormuz was open and gas was $2.39. Just in case anyone's keeping count.

@joekent16jan19 Joe, I have enormous respect for you and I’m all about all podcast discussion whenever. I agree that targeted strikes could be helpful, but my view and approach is a bit more nuanced. In my opinion we also need a much heavier-handed approach in our diplomacy with the Iraqi government. The Iraqi government allows these Iran-backed militias to operate with impunity and with zero accountability, even though they fall under the Iraqi Security Forces umbrella as part of the PMF. Weak responses from politicians in Baghdad (and from our own diplomats on the ground like Josh Harris) only perpetuates our issues in the Middle East. Not a binary choice, exactly as you said. Always happy to discuss this further.
Joe Kent@joekent16jan19

Fair point on post Sulmani proxy attacks in Iraq timeline, I'd support hammering them back in that case, but not getting sucked into a full war against Iran, that is simply not in our interest and only strengths Iran, as we are seeing in this war. Iran withheld its proxies when Trump came back into office in Jan 25' until the start of this war, showing that Iran was seeking a deal & resects Trump. We can do limited CT without getting sucked into another cycle of regime change and lose-lose scenarios in the Middle East, its not a binary choice. Happy to discuss this on your podcast with you and Al whenever, that would probably be more productive than a back & forth on X.

It depends on what is considered “against Iran’s interests”. Rockets have been shot at us almost constantly since we showed back up to assist in the ISIS fight. We didn’t target them, we didn’t even collect against them. We never even returned fire after getting rocketed. I was engaged by the Iranian backed militias in Iraq far more than I was by ISIS.

@Alchapo_36 @joekent16jan19 Was this rocket attack out of the blue or was it a response to something else the US was doing against Iran's interests? Thanks for engaging btw. I'm purely interested in gaining an understanding of both sides.

We can address Iranian terror by targeted CT strikes, as Trump did against Sulmani. Iran responded to this by stopping their proxies from attacking us (under Trump) until the beginning of this war. Prior to us attacking Iran they weren’t holding the SOH hostage. By attacking Iran we gave the IRGC what they needed, support from the Iranian ppl. Using more military means will only make this situation worse.
Matt Tardio@angertab

Allowing Iran to terrorize the Middle East while it holds the Strait of Hormuz hostage is not “power”, its weakness. Trading freedom for security is a cowardice move and will ensure neither.

@anamericanbison @joekent16jan19 Iraq and there specifically for D-ISIS. We were explicitly ordered to not develop targets, target or even ask about Iranian backed militias and sure as heck not allowed to even think about anything against Iran. Purely ISIS.

@AliHanzla1187 @thatdayin1992 The “17” argument is a back calculation from Asma’s age, but the reports about Asma’s age aren’t consistent. Meanwhile Aisha herself says 9 in multiple narrations in Sahih al-Bukhari and Sahih Muslim. Direct testimony beats a reconstructed timeline.

@Alchapo_36 @thatdayin1992 (2/2) According to a narration by student of a companion,Aisha was 17. Reference: Seerah Ibne Ishaq. Ibne Ishaq was Student of Ans, whom Prophet PBUH started guiding when he was 10.

@AliHanzla1187 @thatdayin1992 Primary hadith in Sahih al-Bukhari and Sahih Muslim record Aisha saying consummation was at 9. No early hadith says 17. That claim comes from later timeline calculations, not the primary sources accepted by classical Islamic scholarship.

@Alchapo_36 @thatdayin1992 Lemme correct We don't just follow what's conveyed.There are rules to grade a particular narration.1 of them is:Narration closer to Prophet's life is stronger What you mentioned established centuries later.But according to a narration by student of a companion,Aisha was 17 (1/2)

Classical scholars like Ibn Hajar al-Asqalani and Al-Nawawi accepted this without dispute for over a thousand years. The “17” claim relies on modern timeline calculations based on her sister’s age, which are secondary reconstructions and carry less historical weight than the direct hadith testimony.

The “Aisha was 17–19” claim is a modern reconstruction, not the position of early Islamic sources. The earliest and most authoritative hadith collections, Sahih al-Bukhari and Sahih Muslim, record multiple reports from Aisha herself stating she was married at six and the marriage was consummated at nine.

I led Donald Trump’s first impeachment inquiry. Trump’s erratic and unhinged leadership of this war has long passed impeachment. The only solution is to invoke the 25th Amendment to immediately remove him from office.

@Alchapo_36 @thatdayin1992 No, it's not. Prophet PBUH told us, it's enough for a person to be liar if he/she conveys after hearing (without verification). So, we know better our Prophet and your reality. You people are so non serious about your eternal life. Grow up, for yourself
