There’s no mystery to Pete Hegseth, writes Sarah Jones. “He projects bellicosity before he opens his mouth. When he does open his mouth, whether to defend our war on Iran or a different violation of international law, he becomes even more obvious … In his own mind, he is a modern-day Templar knight, and he is here to carry out God’s mission on Earth.” Hegseth now occupies a position of consequence, just in time for a new Crusade. The war on Iran is wish fulfillment for an entire class of warmongers, including Hegseth. Within this world, Iran has become a bête noire, an all-consuming obsession that, for some, has a religious dimension. To other Christians, Hegseth is a heretic. The Lord “does not listen to the prayers of those who wage war,” the Pope said in his Palm Sunday address. Perhaps, but there is precedent for men like Hegseth in Christendom and in American politics. In a column for the New York ‘Times,’ Lydia Polgreen wrote that Trump is both “a freak of history” and “its fulfillment.” “I would apply the same logic to Hegseth,” writes Jones, “who has, like his earthly master, ‘revealed a much older malady,’ our ‘unshakable faith’ in our ‘ability to shape the world to its liking, indifferent to what others might want and supremely confident that its plan is the right one.’” Read more: nymag.visitlink.me/Vs2sG1

@ryangrim Zionists aren't humans. They're like animals who only care about their own kind. Nazis weren't wrong about them.

Yet somehow it is controversial to not want to send free weapons to this country. The baseline position should be an arms embargo and sanctions. This is pure barbarism.

@kenklippenstein Mostly Mossad pedos

amazing how full of shit so many of those "OSINT" accounts are

@AJEnglish Happy Passover!

BREAKING: The Israeli military said it detected Iranian missile launches, shortly after US President Trump concluded his address, in which he claimed that Iran’s military capabilities have been all‑but crushed. 🔴 LIVE updates: aje.news/sv0juj

@PeteHegseth War crimes. Punishable by death.

Back to the Stone Age.

JUST IN: 🇮🇷🇮🇱 Iran launches missile attack at Israel as President Trump finishes his speech.

@TheEconomist Hilarious. There have been hundreds of Hollywood movies showing American soldiers as the "good guys" in Iraq. Propaganda works in different ways.

The genius of “Dhurandhar” is to reflect the world many Indians, browbeaten by years of shrill pro-Modi messaging on TV news and social media, already believe to be real economist.com/asia/2026/03/2…

Trump's magnificent speech got results! Way to go, Mr. President!

@Acyn Vote this faggt out and deport to Israel

Graham: I would move our bases out of Spain because they are unreliable country. I would be looking at reducing the number of troops we have in Europe. I would be looking at repositioning these troops in countries that are more favorable to the United States. NATO will look different after tonight.

@acnewsitics Thankfully we don't ever have to know again 🤣🤣

Imagine what Charlie Kirk would've said tonight if he saw a Black astronaut piloting Artemis II.

@SullyTalkz Suspended for what reason??! Bizarre

@Amirebrahi91824 @John_Hudson These mfrs are illiterate, they're know nothing about history

@John_Hudson They probably forget Tabas !!!! Operation Eagle Claw (Tabas Operation)

NEW: The high-risk plan to seize Iran’s uranium in a commando raid that would require building a runway in Iran and dropping in excavation equipment amid incoming fire, came at Trump’s request, signaling his interest in the complex operation

@ManUtdWomen Squad running out of steam. Club needs to spend more on depth and wages for better quality, compare our spending to other top WSL teams. Great debut season, now focus on the top 3 race.

We bow out of the #UWCL at the quarter-final stage.

@nytimes Misleading headline as usual. It's the same bill that passed Senate 100-0 and Mike Johnson was cucked into rejecting.

Breaking News: Senate and House Republicans agreed to advance a plan to fund the Department of Homeland Security, which has been closed for over six weeks. The plan does not include any of the restrictions on immigration enforcement that Democrats demanded.nyti.ms/418FFgZ

@WalshFreedom @mehdirhasan Israel doesn't target civilians - no one believes you moron, we have eyes. Fck Israel

Hey @mehdirhasan, you should publicly thank Israel every single day for the Iron Dome. Why? Bcuz Iron Dome saves Israeli lives, Palestinian lives, & the lives of all Arabs/Muslims in the region. Without Iron Dome, based on all the bombs/missiles lobbed Israel’s way over the years, tens of thousands of Israeli citizens would’ve been killed, which in turn would have led to justifiable Israeli responses leading to major wars in the region way worse than we’ve seen, and even though, unlike Israel’s enemies, Israel doesn’t target civilians, who knows how many Arab/Muslim/Palestinian lives would’ve been lost over the years. So yes, the DEFENSIVE Iron Dome saves ALL lives. But Mehdi, you hate Israel too much to acknowledge that truth.

Trump’s lawyers can’t even say for sure if Native Americans are citizens by birth. This administration is disgusting!

@RadioGenoa Where are the Muslims in hijab?

London.
