According to the State Department's own reporting in their 2022 report on Global Terrorism, state.gov/wp-content/upl… , none of the top ten terrorist groups, ranked by fatalities, were connected to Iran. However, there is evidence that some of them, maybe all of them, have received funding or weapons from Israel or US (USAID, CIA).

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent@SecScottBessent

Iran is the head of the snake for global terrorism, and through President Trump’s Operation Epic Fury, we are winning this critical fight at an even faster pace than anticipated. In response to Iran’s terrorist attacks against global energy infrastructure, the Trump Administration will continue to deploy America’s economic and military might to maximize the flow of energy to the world, strengthen global supply, and seek to ensure market stability. Today, the Department of the Treasury is issuing a narrowly tailored, short-term authorization permitting the sale of Iranian oil currently stranded at sea. At present, sanctioned Iranian oil is being hoarded by China on the cheap. By temporarily unlocking this existing supply for the world, the United States will quickly bring approximately 140 million barrels of oil to global markets, expanding the amount of worldwide energy and helping to relieve the temporary pressures on supply caused by Iran. In essence, we will be using the Iranian barrels against Tehran to keep the price down as we continue Operation Epic Fury. This temporary, short-term authorization is strictly limited to oil that is already in transit and does not allow new purchases or production. Further, Iran will have difficulty accessing any revenue generated and the United States will continue to maintain maximum pressure on Iran and its ability to access the international financial system. So far, the Trump Administration has been working to bring around 440 million additional barrels of oil to the global market, undercutting Iran’s ability to leverage its disruptions in the Strait of Hormuz. President Trump’s pro-energy agenda has driven U.S. oil and gas production to record levels, strengthening energy security and lowering fuel costs. Any short-term disruption now will ultimately translate into longer-term economic gains for Americans – because there is no prosperity without security.

But definitely dont ask why the United States has a military base 15,000km away from its territory, on a coral island in the middle of the Indian Ocean, that was illegally cleansed of all of its native inhabitants to make way for the installation

Iran just fired two missies at a target 4000 kilometers away. London is 4400 kilometers from Tehran. Tell me Iran is not a threat to the world. (Paris, Rome, Vienna and Berlin are closer…)

When Eisenhower was asked why the United States did not allow the 1956 Vietnamese reunification elections agreed upon at Geneva, he answered with unusual honesty. He said that if elections were held, Hồ Chí Minh would win with approximately 80 percent of the vote. So they cancelled the elections. Think about that every time an American politician talks about "spreading democracy." They cancelled the democratic election because the "wrong" person would win. They then spent the next two decades killing people to prevent the government that would have been democratically elected from taking power. And they called the other side anti-democratic. This is not ancient history. This is the logic that still governs every "democracy promotion" operation today. Democracy is acceptable when it produces the "right" results. When it does not, you cancel the election, back a coup, fund the opposition, impose sanctions, and call the government that the people actually chose a "dictatorship." Vietnam exposed this logic completely. Not with arguments. With history. With the receipts.

Slavery was legal. People who freed slaves were criminals. Segregation was legal. People who stood up for equality were criminals. I heard this story once about a teacher who took a fish out of its bowl and left a classroom of children as it flopped around.. telling them that if anyone left their seat, they would be expelled. All of the children sat and watched as this fish flopped gasping for air, not wanting to get up in order to avoid getting in trouble. Finally, a girl sprang up from her seat and ran to the fish, placing it back in the bowl. Ultimately, she was the only one who refused to watch the fish die. When the teacher returned he told the class that this was a lesson. That the fear of getting in trouble should never stop you from doing what's right. That sometimes.. you may have to oppose authority and group think, simply because it's the right thing to do. Never use legality as a guide to morality.

I am a US citizen & Surgeon who took care of the Boston Maraton Bombing victims in 2013. I paid for 7 years to own a small apartment in downtown #Beirut for my 3 kids to enjoy summers there. Today, #Israel reduced my dream home to rubble, with american weapons, paid by my taxes.

The notion that infectious disease is purely a “personal choice” collapses the moment it encounters reality. If someone has active tuberculosis and refuses treatment, courts can order isolation or detention until they are no longer contagious. This happens in the United States with regularity because untreated TB spreads and kills. Public health has never operated on the libertarian fantasy that microbes respect individual autonomy. They do not. They spread. Vaccination is simply the civilized method of reducing that spread without resorting to quarantine cells and court orders.

Science did not ‘refuse’ to study autism and vaccines. It studied it repeatedly, in hundreds of thousands of children, in multiple countries, with regression-specific analyses too. Those studies keep finding the same thing: no causal link. Your complaint is not that the question was ignored. It’s that the answer wasn’t the one you wanted.
Steve Kirsch@stkirsch

Grok admits that it cannot name a single pediatric practice where rapid onset autism was more likely to happen BEFORE the vaccine appointment vs. AFTER. They simply REFUSE to study the single most important statistic that would confirm or deny the connection between autism and vaccines. There will NEVER be a study of this because they don't want to know they are harming kids.
