Judgement day has arrived and it has potentially historic implications for Scots law and its current "unjustifiable restrictions" to a proper legal remedy in malicious prosecution claims. Many thanks to all those who have supported this important case. civillibertyscotland.com/news/judgement…

Iranian men and women undertake military training, all 70 million of them. It's going to take more than 5000 US marines to take Iran.

To occupy and "pacify" all of Iran the US would need at least one million troops on the ground. That would require conscription in the US signed off by the Draft-Dodger-In-Chief, T-Rump.

IT'S TIME to get ready for 🇺🇲 "boots on the ground" INSIDE Iran. (Believe me, I know the risks, and yet I'm still saying it.) I believe that the good Persian people would gladly HELP any American troops that they encounter. I'd volunteer for the mission myself, but I couldn't keep up at my age. 😉😎 cc: @persianjewess @IACTN @IAC_TX "Khoda hafez."

@TKovachNashvil Changed days, just remember what the Somalis did to you in Mogadishu dressed in sandals and firing rusty AKs. Iran is a modernised military population and also Shia - who believes that martyrdom is a blessing. Put boots down, you will get fucked over. youtu.be/4TXqRn9WcVs?si…

Your tone seems a bit "gleeful" as you mention the possibility of an American humiliation. When the population of America was HALF of what it is today, we had at least TWICE as many troops in uniform. We sustained personnel losses over enough years to simultaneously defeat two empires across two oceans and thus WON World War Two. The geopolitics of the wars in Korea and Vietnam were somewhat different, but we weathered the storms. I have known plenty of PROUD Vietnam War veterans (including several of the men that trained me). Technological advances changed the battlefield "math" (e.g.: 100,000 Iraqi troops dropped their rifles and surrendered) in more recent times. War against Iran is justified on multiple levels. It is a sad fact that people can get injured or killed. But, as I said in the original post, I would volunteer to go myself -- if @PeteHegseth would let a 68-year-old man go -- if for no other reason than so that my children would not need to go. President Trump is doing the job that other presidents since February of 1979 have failed to do. (Yes, sadly, that includes the great Ronald Reagan.) Nice try at spinning, but: FAILED.

Men and women over the age of 18 undertake military training in Iran, all 70 million of them. It's going to take more than 5000 US marines to beat that.

10 yrs ago I interviewed Ali-Akbar Salehi, the former head of Iran's nuclear agency & former Foreign Minister. A former physicist and politician he insisted Iran had legitimate reasons to develop/build Small Modular Reactors to meet energy needs.

Our family buried a hero. I’ve raised our children alone. And still, some dare call justice “warmongering.” I’ll say this as many times as it takes for the truth to pierce through: My husband, SSG Alan Shaw, was ripped from us February 9, 2007, blown apart by an Iranian-backed militia IED in Baqubah, Iraq. Our kids were 10, 7, and 6. I clutched our little girls’ trembling hands while our 10-year-old son, barely more than a baby himself, stepped forward like the man of the house, leading us through the rows to his daddy’s fresh grave in Section 60 at Arlington National Cemetery,. His small shoulders squared against the wind, his eyes already ancient with a pain that should never touch a child. Then an officer dropped to one knee before us and pressed that folded flag into my shaking arms. Our babies watched their forever change in an instant, silent tears carving tracks down tiny faces. Pentagon numbers: at least 603 American souls murdered by Iran’s proxies in Iraq 2003-2011. One in six combat deaths. Numbers etched forever on white stones. Iran has drenched American blood for decades: Beirut, Khobar Towers, Iraq’s deadly streets, and on. When they shriek “Israel First” or “escalation,” they mock every widow’s shattered heart and every fatherless child’s empty chair. This isn’t politics. This is the silence at bedtime where a father’s goodnight kiss should be. This is the rest of our broken lives. Iran has waged war on us since before my children drew breath. Looking away didn’t end the killing. It fed the graves. America First means honoring every fallen hero by ensuring their sacrifice stops the next knock on a door, not letting it happen in vain. 🇺🇸 No more impunity. Hold them accountable! 🔥 #IranWar #AmericaFirst #GoldStar

@loonshire1 @DStacks72 76% of people born in the UK do not hold a passport. The reasons racists hold against immigration from outside the UK are the same "valid" concerns Scots could have about English immigration to Scotland.

@Documark @DStacks72 Is a uk passport holder moving from one part of the uk to another classed as an immigrant is that correct ?

If the SNP came out backing a Rupert Lowe style immigration system, they’d win an independence mandate overnight. I’m as big a Unionist as they come, but even I’d vote Yes if it meant ending immigration and ensuring Scots never become a minority in our own country.
