作为一个在美国生活了十七年、对美国有着深厚感情的人,作为一个曾经相信美国的制度及其榜样能够给世界带来希望和光明的人,我不得不难堪又痛苦地承认,美国近一段时间在与伊朗的对峙中表现出令人难以置信的软弱、被动、胆怯、愚蠢和短视。
无论美国的立场或者意图是什么,凭借其现有的实力和国际地位,都完全没有必要沦落到几乎完全被伊朗牵着鼻子走的境地。
我们不知道这背后究竟发生了什么。造成目前局面的原因是个人的决策风格?政治派系的争斗?战略博弈的无力?武器实力的不济?军队士气的低落?不过,无论如何,在世人看来,美国已经完全不是以前的美国了。
我此时也能多少理解那些在本土出生长大的美国人的心境了。连我都痛心疾首如斯,那些从小唱着“星条旗永不落”的美国人会有什么感受,便可想而知了。
我们该反思什么?美国的民主制度与个人主义?教育体系的僵化与无能?资本主义体制和功利思想?现代性本身?
显然,美国人要做的反思很多很多。可惜的是,我们很少看到像样的反思,只有越来越极端和情绪化的相互指责和对立。这才是最让人担心甚至绝望的。

John Thune won’t nuke the filibuster to pass the Save America Act because he wants to be nice to Democrats.
Chuck Grassley won’t get rid of blue slips to advance our judicial nominees because he wants to be nice to Democrats.
21 Indiana state senators voted against redistricting and deprived us of two additional House seats because they want to be nice to Democrats.
19 House Republicans are co-sponsoring mass amnesty legislation and going against the will of 77+ million voters because they want to be nice to Democrats.
10 House Republicans voted to extend TPS for 350,000 Haitians because they want to be nice to Democrats.
House Republicans won’t censure Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib, or expel Epstein’s Democrat friend Stacey Plaskett because they want to be nice to Democrats.
The last thing on Democrats’ minds is being nice to Republicans. When will Republicans learn?

@SenateGOP @ShellDavis27851 If Republicans refuse to pass the SAVE America Act,
I ask every Republican in Texas to vote for Ken Paxton in the Senate runoff on Tuesday, May 26th.

Senate Democrats are expected to disagree with Republicans.
But cheering for our enemy, especially for a regime that has killed so many American citizens, is beyond the pale.
Democrats in Congress ought to condemn this disgusting remark.

@podcastCWA @Pro__Trading Of course but have you admitted you agreed with Trump even once?
English

@Pro__Trading I hate trump, but I respect you and appreciate you, sir, for having the courage to admit when you disagree with him instead of just blindly following him. Takes a lot of courage to stand up for what you believe in.
