@visionergeo Never asked for a cessation of violence committed against their own population.

‼️‼️ According to AXIOS, the US has presented strict conditions to Iran in exchange for peace and a ceasefire, which were delivered to the recipient by Egypt, Qatar, and the United Kingdom.
🇺🇸👉🇮🇷 The US demands 6 commitments from Iran:
1. Renunciation of the missile program for five years;
2. Complete cessation of uranium enrichment (with zero levels);
3. Decommissioning of the bombed reactors at Natanz, Isfahan, and Fordow;
4. Strict external supervision of centrifuges and nuclear facilities;
5. Regional arms control agreements, limiting the number of missiles to no more than 1000 units;
6. Complete cessation of funding for puppet groups — Hezbollah, Houthis, and Hamas.

🚨BREAKING: TRUMP SAYS IRAN IS OUT OF MISSILES

In case your’e wondering, the UK-has:
- no exo-atmospheric Anti-Ballistic Missile interceptor system
- No layered missile defence architecture
- No integrated national system protecting our cities or infrastructure.
Our best system is the T45 Destroyer with the Astor/Viper. But it’s primarily a fleet protection asset.
The fact is that we and Europe depend heavily on US detection, US interceptor missiles and platforms, and US command architecture.
The harsh reality is that capabilities amongst European states, incl. the UK, are very limited and patchy indeed.

@visegrad24 Hear come the "fear" part of the campaign to justify an unjust war.

@Libertymama888 @EylonALevy Israel's missiles can reach America. How do we know America isn't being threatened. After all Trump is just Netanyahu's poodle.
English

@EylonALevy Israel has nuclear weapons
Israel has them pointed at Middle Eastern and European capitals
Israel has threatened to use them
Most Europeans as well as the rest of the world understand Israel is the problem.

🚨 BREAKING: President Trump announces the US is ON THE VERGE of 100% completing the Iran war, and that America will NOT be responsible for securing the Strait of Hormuz once it's won
"We are getting very close to meeting our objectives as we consider WINDING DOWN our great Military efforts..."
NO FREE RIDES!
"The Hormuz Strait will have to be guarded and policed, as necessary, by other Nations who use it — The United States does not!"
"If asked, we will help these Countries in their Hormuz efforts, but it shouldn’t be necessary once Iran’s threat is eradicated. Importantly, it will be an easy Military Operation for them."

@Iskesullas @paulmurphy_TD Perhaps it's time to dust off the four day working week campaign. That will save energy.x.com/i/status/18013…

The Irish government and their commentariat mouthpieces are no doubt drawing up plans to ensure that the people least able to shoulder the burden will pay the price for this, as they did during the great recession.

@EricLDaugh Starting a war and walking away. Bit of a tell that you can't finish what you started. Some might say cowardly.
English

🚨 HOLY CRAP. President Trump is now considering PULLING OUT from the Strait of Hormuz after defeating Iran, forcing our “allies” to defend it themselves
No free rides!
“I wonder what would happen if we “finished off” what’s left of the Iranian Terror State, and let the Countries that use it, we don’t, be responsible for the so called “Straight?” That would get some of our non-responsive “Allies” in gear, and fast!!! President DJT”

@overton_news It's well known at this stage that America is subservient to Russia, so the US moving away from a conflict with Russia comes as no surprise.
English

John Bolton ADMITS that by European leaders failing to support the U.S. in Iran — especially those who said “this is not our war” — it INVITES President Trump to say:
“Ukraine is not our war.”
BOLTON: “I will say I think the Europeans make a mistake by responding to that kind of juvenile behavior with juvenile behavior of their own.”
“A number of European leaders, including Kaja Kallas, the European Union’s chief foreign policy official, have said expressly, ‘Iran is not our war.’”
“That’s a very dangerous way to put it because it invites Donald Trump — it almost teases him — to come back and say, well okay, Iran is not your war, Ukraine is not our war.”
English

@JChimirie66677 Is Israel part of NATO - No.
Did America start this war - Yes.
Iranians only targeted the RAF base in response to being attacked, so I don't think going around starting fights then claiming you are under attack is a truthful comment.

Trump Has Just Told NATO Allies They Are On Their Own. Starmer Did This.
Donald Trump has just posted the most consequential statement about the Western alliance since its foundation. NATO allies, he wrote, privately agreed that Iran could not be allowed a nuclear weapon but refused to help when asked. America no longer needs or desires their assistance. We never did. Let that land.
This is not bluster. It is a doctrine. Trump is telling every European government that the Article 5 guarantee they have sheltered under for seventy years was always conditional, and that they have now demonstrated they will not honour their side of the arrangement when it matters. The mutual defence alliance that kept the peace in Europe since 1949 has just been publicly declared a one way street by the President of the United States. Every adversary watching, Russia, China, Iran, will draw the same conclusion simultaneously.
Britain's fingerprints are all over this moment. Starmer blocked Diego Garcia. He needed a drone on his own runway to reverse the decision. He consulted his team on minesweepers. He watched France, Greece and Spain defend a British base while HMS Dragon sat in Portsmouth. He offered an aircraft carrier after the war was won and was told it was no longer wanted. He issued a joint humanitarian statement about Lebanon that did not mention Hezbollah once. At every stage of this crisis he chose the path of least domestic political resistance over the obligations of the oldest and most important bilateral relationship in British foreign policy.
Trump's post also hands every adversary a strategic map. A Western alliance whose European members privately agree on the threat but publicly refuse to act against it is not an alliance. It is a talking shop with a defence clause nobody intends to honour. Putin will have read this post with considerable satisfaction. So will Beijing. The fracture that Starmer and his European counterparts have opened is not merely reputational. It is structural. And it will not be repaired by a press conference or a carefully worded statement about the special relationship being in operation.
Churchill understood that alliances are maintained by behaviour not words. You show up or you do not. Britain did not show up. Trump has noticed. And he has said so, in capital letters, for the entire world to read. The consequences of Starmer's calculations are no longer theoretical. They are here, on Truth Social, signed by the President of the United States of America.
"At every stage of this crisis [Starmer] chose the path of least domestic political resistance over the obligations of the oldest and most important bilateral relationship in British foreign policy."

🚨 BREAKING: President Trump reveals he is partially asking for help in the Strait of Hormuz just to see if our "allies" will actually act like allies
"I'm almost doing it, in some cases, not because we need them, but because I want to find out how they react!"
"Because I've been saying for years that if we ever did need them, they won't be there. Not all of them, but they won't be there."
"I was very surprised with the United Kingdom. Because the United Kingdom, two weeks ago, I said, why don't you send some ships over?"
"And he really didn't want to do it. I said, you don't want to do it. We've been with you. You're our oldest ally. And we spend a lot of money on NATO and all of these things to protect you."
"I mean, we're protecting them. We're working with them on Ukraine. Ukraine's thousands of miles away, separated by a vast ocean. We don't have to do that. We did it!"
