@Cardiinal_ @georgegalloway @SizweLo Yes, Hitchens was only outclassed by Scott Ritter and mark Danner but in a very narrow debate; these two were subject matter experts and Hitchens took them on in their backyard but lost. What galled him was because Galloway could match his breadth&capacity fo ferocious putdown

@SizweLo @georgegalloway Debating with Galloway is a terrible idea. He even once annihilated Christopher Hitchens who is considered one of the best debaters of our era

George Galloway dismantles Piers Morgan. Morgan suffers from the disease of Western exceptionalism where only Western standards are correct. To him, billions of people living under different systems have no standing to weigh in on global affairs, no matter how many they are

Iran is not for beginners.

@squinteratn @UnoHimYerMan The best ever advertising story is about a peregrine falcon.

@DanBilzerian @PeteHegseth Stop acting like you're morally superior @DanBilzerian you've literally fucked 18-year-olds and bragged about it. An 18-year-old is basically a kid.

@Divine1Right @skedeschi No other small nation has given the world more literary or artistic genius. No other small nation has had as rich or powerful influence on the world.

@skedeschi Honestly from what I’ve seen of Ireland lately you can’t convince me we would miss much of it was a crater. What does Ireland do for the world exactly, anyway? They sided with the Nazis and now they’re siding with the jihadis. They’re on the wrong side every time.

If the IRA had 150k missiles on England's border + fired 14k at civilians, or parachuted into Glastonbury, murdered teenagers, dragged their bodies through belfast with Irish people spitting on corpes, kidnapped babies and partied around their coffins - Ireland would be a crater.

@LorcanKelly14 @KKriegeBlog That’s not what Gore Vidal said

@charmagh6 @KKriegeBlog The Stonewall name predates Jackson being ensconced behind an actual stonewall at Fredericksburg. It allegedly comes from a remark by Barnard Bee at First Manassas. Some of Jackson’s contemporaries also suggested it came from “Stonewall country” a nickname for the region the…

Today, my book Infantry in Battle, 1733-1783, released. Why should you care? It changes the story of 18th century battles by telling the experiences of enlisted and NCOs, not just the officers. Battle looks different when you are enlisted. A thread for the infantrymen. 1/20

@fredrain @SMO_VZ It won’t take you long to do what? Put a number on long and put objectives against the what.

@charmagh6 @SMO_VZ It won’t take us that long. Not throwing shade on Ireland at all. My favorite country I’ve visited. Just a beautiful place.

🤥🪖 Trump’s military playbook for Kharg, Hormuz: Three avenues to hell All signs point to the US gearing up to seize Iran’s Kharg and possibly islands in the Hormuz Strait. Which military scenarios are likely to occur? 🔴 US military buildup underway A ground force for an invasion of the Iranian islands may include:  ➡️ ~2,200 Marines from the 11th Marine Expeditionary Unit ➡️ ~2,200 Marines from the 31st MEU ➡️ ~3,000 troops from the 82nd Airborne Division ➡️ additional forces from US Army Delta Force, SEAL TEAM-6, the 5th Special Forces Group, USAF 621st Devil Raiders, and the 75th Ranger Regiment  ➡️ in general, the US has around 50,000 troops in the region 🔴 Why Kharg? 📍Kharg hosts Iran’s main oil terminal — the nation's financial lifeline 📍A small, fixed target with defenses reportedly degraded by prior strikes  🔴 Why Hormuz Strait islands? 📍Taking the strait under control 📍Limit Iran’s ability to threaten tanker traffic  🔴 US military options 🔴Option 1: Economic chokehold via Kharg Island ➡️ Initial airstrikes to neutralize remaining military targets ➡️ Insert Marines and airborne troops via MV-22 Ospreys ➡️ Secure critical infrastructure, including the 5,922-foot runway at Kharg airport, to prevent Iranian reinforcement ➡️ Establish control of the island, freeze Iran’s oil exports, and force concessions in negotiations 🔴Option 2: Control the Strait of Hormuz ➡️ Coordinated Marine amphibious landings + heavy airpower  ➡️ Seize key islands around the strait: Qeshm, Abu Musa, Greater Tunb, Lesser Tunb  ➡️ Capture strategic coastal zones: Bandar Abbas and Jask  ➡️ Create a multi-kilometer buffer zone to protect shipping and suppress Iranian missile/drone threats  🔴Option 3: Option 1 combined with Option 2 for broader strategic impact 🔴 Why all three options are a recipe for disaster 🌏Kharg and Hormuz islands sit close to Iran and are highly exposed to missiles, drones, and fast-attack craft  🌏Seizing the islands and strategic coastal zones would incur casualties; holding them would be even costlier  🌏Air and sea resupply would face constant Iranian strikes from missiles and drones  🌏US forces could be trapped and neutralized before achieving any economic or strategic objectives

@fredrain @SMO_VZ Ireland, who was first occupied by the worlds greatest power in 1167, fought and outlasted them, driving the last British soldiers out in 1998 and still stands to this day?

@SMO_VZ This long winded post is laughably ignorant. You obviously do not know our military capabilities. Much more advanced than Ireland’s 😂

@Owie39Rob @richardmarcj More than likely only because he had a great many possible fathers.

@richardmarcj He was famously low Church.....I think he got this from his Mother ? I maybe wrong

In 1908 Asquith objected to a Catholic procession in London for the Eucharistic Congress: 'This gang of foreign cardinals taking advantage of our hospitality to parade their idolatries through the streets of London [is] a thing without precedent since the days of Bloody Mary'.

@Mr_Andrew_Fox A lot of people don’t know what a ‘holocaust survivor’ is. Why don’t you be a good chap and tell them. It’s quite a broad definition isn’t it? Like anyone who lived in any part of German controlled Europe between 1931-1945. It includes the 5000 Jews still living in Berlin in45

I had the honour of speaking to a group of Holocaust survivors last year and they said the atmosphere in London was like 1930s Germany. You look at the Greens’ rhetoric, and you look at the pro-Iranian regime march in London this weekend… We're there. What do we do now?

@BROKENBRITAIN0 That’s sainsburys

Iranian trollling is getting too good 🤣

@GovMikeHuckabee Thanks for your cowardice. You’ve lied well.

My statement re Prohibiting the Latin Patriarch of entering Church of Holy Sepulcher on Palm Sunday: While all Holy sites in the Old City are closed due to safety concerns for mass gatherings including the Western Wall, Church of the Holy Sepulcher and Al Aqsa Mosque, the action today by the Israel Nat'l Police to deny Latin Patriarch Cardinal Pierbattista Pizzaballa and 3 other priests from entering the Church to offer a blessing on Palm Sunday is an unfortunate overreach already having major repercussions around the world.  Home Front Command Guidelines restrict any gatherings to 50 people or less.  The 4 representatives of the Catholic Church were well below that restriction.  Statements from the Gov't of Israel indicate the action to prohibit Cardinal Pizzaballa entry to the Church of the Holy Sepulcher were for safety reasons, but churches, synagogues, and mosques throughout Jerusalem have met with the restrictions of 50 or less.  For the Patriarch to be barred from entry to the Church on Palm Sunday for a private ceremony is difficult to understand or justify. Israel has indicated it will work with the Patriarch to accommodate a safe means of carrying out Holy Week activities.

@DrNeilStone @kasthomas Yes.

@kasthomas Big fan of Marandi are you?

Please please please stop interviewing this guy Marandi He's a modern day Goebbels Especially while most Iranians don't have Internet!!

@ChaiLife613 Since Jews don’t proselytise, you have committed the sin of extreme stupidity with your fake story.

Before I ever converted, I was a Catholic who read the Bible closely, and I couldn’t ignore what it said. God made a covenant with Israel, not metaphorical, not replaceable, not expired. Becoming Jewish didn’t create my belief in Israel, it confirmed it. Zionism, to me, isn’t political first, it’s biblical, it’s historical, it’s the story of a people and a promise that never disappeared, no matter how many tried to erase it. I didn’t arrive here by accident, I read, I studied, and I followed the truth where it led me. Standing with Israel isn’t a trend, it’s conviction. Shavua tov!

@crean_fr Sure wasn’t he christened Ahmed?

There's a growing tendency in Britain, and no doubt elsewhere, for non-Muslims to refer to Mohammed as 'the prophet Mohammed': to be avoided.

🚨SCOOP: Man filmed in Al Jazeera ‘intimidation’ mob is a serving Metropolitan Police officer @declassifiedUK has identified him as Special Constable David Soffer. He was filmed calling a Palestinian journalist a "dog" and telling him to "go back to Qatar".

@PhilMcCavity17 @zarahussain999 Epstein?

There are no Jewish rape gangs. The Jews are a civilised community. Muslims are evil. Islam is just a sex cult that advocates violence, rape, pedophilia, slavery and worse. It seems to dominate and replace. You will never be welcome like Jews, Hindus, Sikhs and Eastern Europeans. Muslims are the shit on our shoes. We need to scrape you off and throw you out.

The first Muslim nursery in Britain. It's beautiful. Before Restore Britain and Reform supporters moan and claim “we’re taking over”…… Please remember the Jewish community in London and Golders Green, have their own police service, ambulance service, schools, social care, social housing, dentists and doctors all operating in Britain. I don’t have a problem with it but it’s unfair we’re treated differently.

Iran 🇮🇷 just released this emotional video I don’t think they are stopping until all their objectives have been met

@eljefenso @TondeleoS @Sachinettiyil Don’t speak of your Protestant ministers or your church without morals or faith, when the foundation stones of your temple were the balls of king Henry the eighth

The Church of England (Anglican) was created in the 1530s when King Henry VIII broke with the Roman Catholic Church. The primary trigger was Pope Clement VII’s refusal to grant Henry an annulment of his marriage to Catherine of Aragon, who had not produced a male heir. Henry sought to marry Anne Boleyn and secure the Tudor succession. In response, Parliament passed the Act of Supremacy in 1534, declaring Henry the Supreme Head of the Church of England and rejecting papal authority. While initially driven by political and personal motives rather than theology, this separation laid the foundation for the Anglican tradition, which later incorporated Protestant reforms under Edward VI and Elizabeth I.

Princess Alexandra of Hanover, daughter of Prince Ernst August of Hanover and Princess Caroline of Monaco, was removed from the British line of succession in 2018 after converting to Catholicism.
