@moltenlava73 @MdesiU @DailyIranNews You are welcome to stop them. They'll just mine the whole strait and drone strike any minesweeper. Then you'll need a ground invasion to hold the coast. Then they'll butcher your guys.

@MdesiU @DailyIranNews we are at war with a hostile nation and want to choke them economically. On what planet would we allow them to control the strait and charge tolls?

Chinese Defense Minister Admiral Dong Jun: "We have trade and energy agreements with Iran; we expect others not to interfere in our affairs. The Strait of Hormuz is open to us." China is issuing a warning to the US.

@HorribleFour @corundogs @Sievo666 @sentdefender There would be no global theme park. Only nuclear winter where Americans would die of starvation.

@corundogs @Sievo666 @sentdefender What? Nations attack nuclear powers all the time. The United States had justification to completely glass the whole middle east after 9/11 and turn it into a parking lot for the next global theme park lol.

According to Fox News, citing two U.S. officials, Vice President JD Vance’s final offer delivered to the Iranian delegation in Islamabad last night, prior to the breakdown of peace talks between the two countries mediated by Pakistan, consisted of the following demands: 1. End all uranium enrichment 2. Dismantle all major nuclear enrichment facilities 3. Retrieve highly enriched uranium 4. Accept a broader peace, security and de-escalation framework that includes regional allies 5. End funding for terrorist proxies Hamas, Hezbollah, and the Houthis 6. Fully open the Strait of Hormuz, charging no tolls for passage

@ccoombs20 @based_yeoman @dccommonsense What's verifiable is the launches went down but success % went up. So seems to me like their strategy worked.

How on earth could you possibly know that. Every Iranian supporter said Israel would be leveled in a conflict within days. They would overwhelm their air defenses and it would be over. Missile launches started strong and then trickled down to near nothing. That’s verifiable. So why did they save their supposed thousands upon thousands of missiles? Or is it more likely they blew their load, and then were fragmented with little capability to centrally coordinate and lacked launchers. Perhaps they have super secret stashes, but common sense and empirical evidence would say otherwise

1. This "do you want Iran to have nukes?!" argument wonderfully obscures the much thornier larger question: This is an 80 year old weapons technology that (ostensibly) no one who doesn't already have it is allowed to. How long is that a tenable situation? Permanent inferiority?

@based_yeoman @dccommonsense You really believe your own propaganda? Iran could fire everything they have, totally overwhelm all counter measures, and still have thousands of missiles land on all critical infrastructure rendering Israel uninhabitable. Why haven't they?

@TheDadaTweets @dccommonsense I imagine the 90% + missile interception rate is the real reason why these places have not been affected in a meaningful way by the Islamic regime lol Important little detail there

@EasyMode476 @based_yeoman @dccommonsense Oh yes they do

@TheDadaTweets @based_yeoman @dccommonsense Neither do Jewish Israelis

@based_yeoman @dccommonsense They've had missiles that could obliterate desalination plants, power plants, and other industrial bases, turning Israel effectively barren, for a while now as they've demonstrated. Yet they didn't. Does the imam only appear from radioactive smoke?

@TheDadaTweets @dccommonsense Shia fanatics WANT WAR to usher in their 12th Imam. They NEED their 12th imam to defeat Dajjal (israel) as a prerequisite for their golden age or whatever. If they get nukes they will use them on Israel. Israel HAS nukes and they do not use them on Iran, restraint.

@EasyMode476 @based_yeoman @dccommonsense True, non Jewish Israelis don't really want that.

@TheDadaTweets @based_yeoman @dccommonsense That’s not “the Israeli worldview”

@based_yeoman @dccommonsense You're proving Dan's argument, the thornier larger question being wonderfully obscured, by yapping on about but do we reallllly want Iran to have nukes

@TheDadaTweets @dccommonsense That’s a red herring. We’re talking about Iran having nukes.

@CarlosCMTF @based_yeoman @dccommonsense Bet you can't even explain why it's 1) dangerous? 2) Islamist? 3) propaganda?

@TheDadaTweets @based_yeoman @dccommonsense That's exactly the same dangerous Islamic propaganda that makes it unacceptable for Islamists to have nukes.

@based_yeoman @dccommonsense What about the Israeli worldview of bringing about their Messiah and then enslaving non-jews as cattle?

@dccommonsense Dan, I’m not sure you’re giving enough emphasis to the regime’s apocalyptic worldview…..

@BobHasHopes @StealerTime Then what's the fuss all about? Zionists came to the middle east wanting conquest, now they're getting it, but you paste pictures of dead kids from one side demanding pity while not giving any back because it's war?

@TheDadaTweets @StealerTime There is no empathy in war fool. Don't commit atrocities, kill 1200 people, hold hostages for over two years. It's called consequences you fucking idiot

I would rather be a 'brown third-worldist' than remain ambivalent to the killing of children who look like I did as a boy.

@BobHasHopes @StealerTime I was about to feel empathy for another dead kid, but thank you, you showed me the bibas kids so now I want more bloodshed again. Grateful for this check on my empathy.

@StealerTime If only Islam hadn't kidnapped these babies on the 7th.....

@willchamberlain @mkthabet With this logic, anybody can beat you up on the street, if they can, and have a reasonable chance of getting away. Without it being wrong, in any sense of the word. Cool take on morality. I hope you find your opponent soon.

@mkthabet You’re getting it! Be glad we’re so nice

Wherein I explain patiently to Piers why Israel "gets a pass" for not disclosing their nuclear program

@mister_irony @EEliksen96936 @DougAMacgregor So everyone knows Iran has nothing to do with Lebanon, but the world is the US playground because the marines chose to sing a hymn about it?

Marine Corps Hymn: From the Halls of Montezuma To the Shores of Tripoli; We fight our country's battles In the air, on land and sea; First to fight for right and freedom And to keep our honor clean; We are proud to claim the title of United States Marine. Our flag's unfurled to every breeze From dawn to setting sun; We have fought in ev'ry clime and place Where we could take a gun; In the snow of far-off Northern lands And in sunny tropic scenes; You will find us always on the job The United States Marines.

BREAKING: Pakistan’s ambassador to the United States says Lebanon was included in the 2 week ceasefire agreement.

@ziggyofstardust @best8itw So people chanting 'death to America' is wrong, but your country actually going to the middle east and causing death and destruction is fine, because they don't chant it openly? And you claim to be rAtiOnAl?

@best8itw Yes, because it screams "rational person" to wish death on millions of people because of what someone else did to them. lmao y'all would be shitting yourself from here to the moon if (and when!) Americans had blanketed sentiments of Muslims after 9/11 but it is TOTALLY okay here?

when he chants 'death to america' in 10 yrs theyll say its because "muslims hate our freedom"

@OGAride @Joyce_Karam Why do i see Israelis crying and wanting blood when g-d wills their death at the hands of the Arabs?

@Joyce_Karam Poor guy. We should feel as sorry for him as he does for the 30,000 people his regime slaughtered in January. But Insallah, apparently g-d has willed the deaths of his family, so he’s good.

“While we were engaged in negotiations, they struck us,” #Iran’s Kamal Kharazi told CNN on Mar. 9. Today his home was struck, wife killed, he sustained serious injuries. NYT reports Kharazi was discussing w Pakistan possible US-Iran negotiations w VP Vance

@ggreenwald The glove which 'Israel first' is using to dissect out what they need from the dying body of the American empire. The corpse and glove will both be discarded.

What is the Trump administration?

@kimmonismus Claude needs to be a human right at this point.

Give Anthropic more compute. That’s all I’m asking for.

@RealCandaceO They want to start WW3 because they already sacrificed their red heffers, they believe their end times prophecy is about to start now and they need to now destroy the world so the Messiah can come and save them. They're already performing their ritual preparations.

Another Israeli false flag. They did this to drag European men into the war.

@AdamRFisher Jews 'were' from judea. Then some moved and inhabited various lands, some converted and stayed home. Then Europe wanted to kick out the European Jews. And Jews all over the world decided they were powerful enough to conquest their way back to their religious land.

Our enemies call us “Judeans.” In Arabic: يهودي (yahūdī) In Farsi: یهودی (yahudi) In Turkish: Yahudi All mean the same thing: people from Judea. A people whose name reflects their territorial origin. The same ancient people with an undeniable tie to the land. It's identical in Latin: Iudaei,  and of course, in Hebrew: יהודי (Yehudi). The distinction between “Jew" and “Judean” in other languages emerged in the diaspora, where Jews were stripped of their territorial identity and reduced, in the eyes of others, to followers of a religion. This linguistic disconnect fuels Western “settler-colonial” vs “indigenous” narrative. Yet our enemies’ own languages preserve the undeniable truth their propaganda ignores: Jews are from Judea.
