@RealNetTechNerd @ShadowofEzra @ItsJuliansRum Translation? I just presumed that was her talking.

@ShadowofEzra @ItsJuliansRum The translation is a dude.. I’m dying..🤣🤣

Brigitte Macron, while at the White House, says the First Amendment needs to be restricted and limited because too many young children are suffering. She says she can read signals from these young children. “I think that liberty does have some rules. We have to be free, but adapt to certain codes.”

@LoLo_0707 @JacobShap @JonahPlatt You pretending that having a Canaanite descent gives a claim to the land of the people who were there when mass immigration to the region began. Of course the Jews who were already living there had the right to continue living there; outsiders did not.

@JacobShap @Bricebbd @JonahPlatt You, pretending to be a "grown up" w/ a "graduate degree in Jewish studies" while not even knowing that Jews are of Canaanite descent:

You cannot colonize a place you are from. There is no other land to which Jews as a collective are connected. Every Muslim site in the land is literally built on top of a Jewish one. A state founded by an indigenous people, who either already lived there or were returning from exile, without a mother empire, mostly fleeing as refugees for survival, does not meet the definition of settler colonialism by any stretch of the imagination.

@MouinRabbani Why would the top official on global arms control know about Israel's nuclear capabilities??? /S

“It would be outside my purview, as the arms control non-proliferation under secretary, to discuss that specific question [regarding Israel’s nuclear proliferation activities and nuclear weapons arsenal]”. Tragicomic.

@gonerogue27 Which is the robot? 😅

I honestly feel like apologising to my children for these strange times we are living in...

@antonioguterres If they give shelter to those attacking Iran has every right to attack their neighbors. If you're trying to kill me and hide in my neighbors homes you make them a target and they do also by aiding you.

The conflict in the Middle East has gone too far. My message to the US & Israel is that it’s high time to end the war – as human suffering deepens, civilian casualties mount & the global economic impact is increasingly devastating. My message to Iran is to stop attacking their neighbors that are not parties to the conflict.

@GrahamT42640895 @JohnCleese Indeed...I don't need to be told.

@Bricebbd @JohnCleese Killing is bad Brice

Maybe if the Muslims stopped threatening to kill infidels, that would help ?

@moymiz @antonioguterres @UN The U.S. and Israel are the active threats in and to West Asia.

@antonioguterres @UN Letting a member country threaten another one.. and doing nothing.. got us here. Countries that are an active threat to the region like Iran shouldn’t be able to be member states.

The war in the Middle East is out of control. It is time to stop climbing the escalation ladder – and return to diplomacy & full respect of international law. I have just appointed Jean Arnault as my Personal Envoy to lead @UN efforts on the conflict & its consequences.

@antonioguterres @UN The U.N. lacking the backbone to call upon their member states to stand against the U.S. and Israel is the problem.

@StateDept Apparently our president will accept nothing less than this country's absolute defeat.

PRESS SEC: The President's preference is always peace, but if Iran fails to accept that they have been defeated militarily and will continue to be, he will ensure they are hit harder than ever before. President Trump does not bluff.

@mozaka11 @sahouraxo Unfortunately they're claiming the strike isn't effecting operations. These chemicals shouldn't be used at all on people.

@sahouraxo I hope it was completely destroyed by 🇮🇷?

Iran struck the Israeli chemical complex in the Negev (ICL Rotem). The sole supplier of white phosphorus to the US military. The same chemical weapons used by Israel to burn civilians, homes, and farmland in Lebanon and Gaza. ICL is Israel’s largest chemicals company.

@BadMCPO @RepNancyMace There's a very good reason the U.S. has never sought direct conflict with Iran...it is a suicide mission. Strategically unfeasible!

@RepNancyMace Agree, but after 47 years of sponsoring terror, killing Americans, I think it is high time we spanked some Iran ass. Signed, American Veteran (of war too).

Just walked out of a House Armed Services briefing on Iran. Let me repeat: I will not support troops on the ground in Iran, even more so after this briefing.

@mideastXmidwest "Sure we could have saved all these children from dying...it was awful, but don't you have empathy for our defense contractors? ~Anthony Blinken, probably

How does Tony Blinken reconcile his Gaza legacy? Speaking at the Harvard Kennedy School, former Secretary of State Antony Blinken was asked yesterday about how he sees Gaza — and whether the Biden administration should have cut off arms to Israel. The moderator, New York Times journalist David Sanger, described Gaza as probably the "weakest" part of the diplomat's legacy. "Of course, for me, coulda woulda shoulda, is something that will always be there when it comes to Gaza," Mr. Blinken said. "Given the level of human suffering, given the horrific loss of of life among Palestinian women, men, children — you can't help but ask yourself on a regular basis, could we should we have done something different?" A Harvard student pushed further during the Q&A. He asked the former secretary of state more specifically about the 2024 USAID conclusion that Israel had blocked aid to Palestinians despite Mr. Blinken telling Congress the opposite, overriding experts to continue sending weapons to Israel. "You had opportunities to distance yourself and your administration from arming Israel, which committed what leading Holocaust scholars and human rights agencies call a genocide," the student said. "You rejected them and continued arming Israel. This is your legacy. How do you justify to the countless Palestinians, including thousands of children, that died from your decisions?" The student then read the names of several young children were killed in Gaza. "How do you reconcile with this and how do you reconcile with your legacy?" "This is something that I grappled with and will continue to grapple with for as long as I can see into the future," Mr. Blinken said. "Could we, should we have done things differently such that the suffering that people endured, the loss of the children you just listed and so many others could have been averted. The short answer is: Maybe yes. "We had to make judgments. We had to make judgments in real time about how to try to get to a better place. We made those judgments. People will make their own judgments about what we did and what we didn't do. "But let me just add a few things... and my great friend Samantha [Power] is here and we had this, you know, ongoing discussions in our own administration on the question of the assistance that was getting or not getting to Palestinians in Gaza throughout 2024. I was on this every single day, literally every single day. And we had a series of reports come out suggesting that there was an imminent famine that was about to happen. And then the next report would say actually fewer people are in danger even though people were leading terribly hard and difficult lives. "That didn't just happen. It happened because every single day we were on the Israelis to try to get assistance in, to open more crossing points, to flood the zone. They did that profoundly inadequately. They did that in ways that were not the way I would like to have seen it done, but we got some of that done. "When the report that you referred to came out and this was the product of the so-called NSM, the national security memorandum. If you look at that report, it lays out a lot of the actions that Israel were taking that were of more than deep concern to us. And I think that report actually served a very useful function in motivating the Israelis to do better. Not to do as much as they should have and as we would have wanted, but to do better. And at various points the aid went up, the number of trucks going in went up. The distribution even with the trucks going in was a huge problem. Looting, criminality, etc., all difficult problems that are really hard to control for. "But yes, of course, you couldn't be and I wouldn't be human if I didn't ask myself every day, could we have done things differently. "The one thing I want to suggest to you as well… I believe and look maybe I'm wrong that the nature of the the trauma in Israel, which is, there's no hierarchy of trauma, the trauma in Israel, the trauma among Palestinians, the same. The loss of a Palestinian life, the loss of Israeli life, the same. But on the Israeli side, the trauma was such that I believe the determination across that society to take the actions that they took in Gaza was such that irrespective of what we did, they would have continued to do what they did. And cutting off arms, sure, that was an option. But I don't actually believe that at least in the near term, it would have changed things. "And I also believe it would have led to an even wider war as Israel's enemies, and they were multiple, jumped in and that only would have extended the war in Gaza, not ended the war in Gaza. "We thought that the best way to get to an end, to protect people, to help people, was to get to a ceasefire, with hostages coming out and with aid going in. And you know I fully—more than respect—I empathize with people who felt this so, so deeply. I do remain with a question in my mind about why barely a word was spoken in all those months about Hamas, which was an actor too and is responsible for so much of what happened. "But yes, we all look at it, I certainly look at it, and say maybe we could have done differently. Maybe we could have done better by the people. I wish we could have."

@LoLo_0707 @JacobShap @JonahPlatt The subtle point you miss is that there was no right at all to establish a state on top of where others already lived.

@Bricebbd @JacobShap @JonahPlatt Arabs are indigenous to the Arabian Peninsula, not the Levant. Origins in the Arabian Peninsula make someone genetically Arab. Origins in the Levant make someone genetically Levantine. Some Levantine people are genetically & linguistically Arabized aka COLONIZED.

@Yousefiaa I wouldn't be surprised at all if numbers are up already for AWOLs and desertions. It is the only sensible or moral choice.

@Bricebbd Seriously, these guys have access to news we see. What the fuck are they thinking? I don’t get it. Abort abort abort. None of them should die for Israel.

What are 1,000 “elite” members of our armed forces going to do in the strait of Hormuz exactly? Don’t these poor disposable heroes and cannon fodder for Israel know the command and control of all missiles and all drones and all torpedoes is 6,000 miles under Iranian mountainous terrain? Don’t they know #Iran has a million active and reserve soldiers? @CENTCOM what’s the current incentive in sacrificing American men and women in uniform for Israel. Explain to the American people what are the objectives of this mission. Thanks. CC: @DougAMacgregor @RealScottRitter do you gentlemen know the plan by any chance?

@UN @antonioguterres There is a diplomatic solution: the militaries of the assorted UN states can collectively stand against the two rogue nations in every way, including militarily as necessary.

“War is not the answer. We need a way out of this disaster. Diplomacy is the way out. Full respect of international law is the way out. Peace is the way out.” — @antonioguterres calls for an immediate end to the war in the Middle East. un.org/sg/en/content/…

@StateDept 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

PRESS SEC: The United States military continues to decimate the terrorist Iranian regime's offensive and defensive capabilities. Just over 3 weeks in, it's abundantly clear that Operation Epic Fury has been a resounding military triumph.

@JanayKinney @RpsAgainstTrump My resume cover letter: VIBES! Every page after is the same.

@RpsAgainstTrump Great. I'm gonna take my Black ass to Washington D.C. & see how far I can get with a resume that just says "good at reading people".

@RealNetTechNerd Surely we're living in all of the dystopian fiction at once.

@Bricebbd One dated Epstein before Trump The other is probably going to be used against us if there’s any type of civil discontent, in our country

JUST IN: First Lady Melania Trump appeared at the White House alongside an AI-powered robot, calling it “the first American-made humanoid in the White House.” Giving off SkyNet vibes

@RealNetTechNerd And which of the two in the video is the robot?

@RealNetTechNerd The first humanoid in the white house was the president.
