Cheap fuel was never cheap.
For 47 years, it has come mixed with Iranian blood.
So go ahead. Fill your tank. Drive on. Pretend not to notice.
But since the free world loves to talk about economics, let’s break down the actual alchemy of your hypocrisy.
Your politicians stand at their podiums and tell you that suffocating inflation is the unavoidable cost of "war" or "instability in the Middle East."
It is a mathematical lie.
Look at the €1.80 you pay for a liter of fuel.
Barely €0.50 goes to the countries extracting the crude.
€0.30 covers the physical reality of refining and transport.
The remaining €1.00? *More than half the price you pay at the pump* is pure, unadulterated tax revenue sliding straight into the vaults of European governments.
They could slash your fuel prices and kill your inflation tomorrow simply by taking a smaller cut. They choose their revenue instead.
But here is the truly sickening part of the transaction: to protect that massive stream of domestic tax money, your governments need the oil to keep flowing without interruption. And to keep it flowing, they demand "market stability."
Do you know what "stability" means to a European diplomat?
It means shaking hands with the terrorist syndicate occupying our country. It means preaching "diplomatic engagement" with a death cult. It means looking the other way while they butcher our youth on the asphalt, just so the global markets don't flinch and the tax ledgers stay green.
You complain about the cost of war at the pump. But the grim reality is that your governments are keeping the prices artificially high, while quietly funding our executioners just to protect their own profit margins.
You are paying with euros.
We are paying the rest of the bill with our blood.

付き合ってない関係って、やっぱりどこか切ない。
付き合ってないのに毎日LINEして、
どうでもいいことまで送り合って、
付き合ってないのに写真も共有して、
気づいたら一日の中で当たり前の存在になってる。
付き合ってないのに会いたくなって、
実際に会えば自然と距離も近くなって、
言葉にしなくても通じてるような空気になる。
それなのに、付き合ってないからこそ、
ちょっとしたことで嫉妬してしまうし、
勝手に傷ついたりもする。
期待していい関係じゃないって分かってるのに、
気づけば期待ばかりが大きくなっていく。
ほとんど恋人みたいな空気なのに、
ちゃんとした名前がついてないだけで、
どこか曖昧で不安定なまま進んでいく。
だからこそ、終わるときは本当にあっさりしてて、
あんなに近かったはずなのに、嘘みたいに一瞬で距離ができる。
名前もついてない関係だからこそ、
まだ手に入ってない感覚が強くて、
その分だけ余計に独占したくなってしまうのかもしれない。
ちゃんと形がないまま深くなっていく関係ほど、
綺麗だけどもろくて、気づいたときにはもう戻れない位置にいる。

This week was tough. I had dinner with my intelligent friends from European countries, people who have spent half their lives working within the United Nations. We were having a good time until the conversation turned to Donald Trump and Iran. Everyone, without exception, spoke badly of Trump: that he causes problems for everyone, that war is terrible, that it is illegal, and so on.
I stayed silent. When everyone finally became quiet, I asked only one question: who is actually going to collect and remove those more than 400 kilograms of uranium?
My French friend said: Trump is no better than the regime. On top of that, he has started an illegal war, and many countries have nuclear power plants why shouldn’t Iran have them too?
I exploded inside, but I remained silent at first. When I finally broke my silence, I said: was it illegal when the United States helped the French during the Second World War? Was it unnecessary?
Then silence returned.
I kept thinking about how to express everything happening inside me; how to explain the regime to a European-someone surrounded by left-wing ideology, enclosed within indirect forms of censorship, and always ready to say that war is terrible, yet surprised when I say many Iranians wanted it.
How do you explain to people who live in safety that some nations sometimes see outside pressure as the only remaining path when every internal path has been closed? How do you explain that they do not even speak in geopolitical terms, but judge only from a position of moral comfort, while others are speaking about survival?
Europeans who, despite democracy and free internet, still do not know what happened in Iran on January 8–9. Europeans who believe every conflict can be understood through the same moral template. Europeans who condemn all violence in theory, but have never had to live under a Islamic system where violence is part of everyday life.
And I sat there with the feeling that the distance between our realities was greater than the table around which we were sitting…

@marklevinshow Mark, please make sure the president knows the vast majority of Iranians both inside and out of Iran only want one leader. That's @PahlaviReza

@JohnnyNash77 Gentlemen, we understand you’re all excited to talk. However if you’re jumping at the chance to speak the second after Johnny, mind you the host, has finished a point, are you truly having a conversation?
I’d wager you’re not listening, just trying to get your voice heard.

This Saturday marks exactly one hundred days since the slaughter of January 8th & 9th.
Whether this broader war continues or ends, whether a geopolitical deal is signed or not, none of that noise matters down here in the dirt. While the world panics over its diplomatic theater, staring at the sky, here in Iran there is only one frequency left in our minds: the total destruction of the terrorist Islamic regime occupying our soil.
After that massacre, it is the only thought left.
Every single morning I wake up, the very first thought forged into my head is this: This goddamn regime is still breathing on my homeland.
And every night, when I close my eyes, my mind drops right back into the wasteland of those nights.
I remember the exact taste of the tear gas choking out the air, thick with fire and smoke.
I remember the heavy metallic smell of fresh blood on the cold asphalt.
And I remember him. That one young man, unarmed, defenseless, yet entirely defiant. When their thugs rushed him on their motorbikes, he did not flinch. He stood his ground and threw a bare knuckle punch straight into the jaw of the first coward who tried to take him. So they shot him in the leg. They shattered his bone just so they could drag him down into the absolute abyss of their prisons.
But the streets were just the beginning.
We remember how the terrorist regime loaded the butchered bodies of our youth into trailers like meat, hauling them away in the dark to the slaughterhouse of Kahrizak.
They took corpses as hostages. They looked grieving mothers in the eye and extorted blood money just to let them bury the bones.
They pointed guns at broken families, forcing them to look at cameras and falsely declare their murdered children as loyal Basiji. They stole their lives, and then they tried to hijack their ghosts.
They walked right into the hospital wards, looked down at the bleeding, and executed them point blank on their stretchers just to silence the witnesses.
They even gunned down the firefighter who ran into the inferno with nothing but the instinct to save his people.
And when the Chehellom came, when the fortieth day arrived and families gathered in the dirt just to weep over the graves, they showed up with batons and handcuffs to beat the grief out of them.
They think a hundred days washes the blood away. They think a distracted world means they are safe.
But they fundamentally misunderstand the mechanics of the monster they have awakened. Every stolen body, every executed witness, and every boy they dragged into the dark is another blade forged directly into our psyche. My mind is an armory built from these memories. We are a graveyard that decided to march.
We will not forgive.
We will not forget.
We will simply keep moving forward until every single trace of this occupying death cult disappears from our land.

@BarackObama I can't believe when I was young I ever thought you were a decent president. That's life, live and learn. As I got older I came to understand the importance of foreign policy. As an american, and a persian, from the bottom of my heart, fuck you.

The victory of the opposition in Hungary yesterday, like the Polish election in 2023, is a victory for democracy, not just in Europe but around the world. Most of all, it’s a testament to the resilience and determination of the Hungarian people – and a reminder to all of us to keep striving for fairness, equality and the rule of law.

@biglizardswife いくつかの説がありますが、ペルシャ系のアメリカ人としての意見の立場で言うと、カカシ姐さんが言った様な、そう言ったイランと何の関係もなく人たちが自分のエゴを抑えることができず、自分の考えや思想が正義と真実だと思もっているんじゃないかと、と言う感じかなー

@EdwardOfIran5 Very astute observation dadash!
Per the conditions you mentioned, if that's really what was given to them, makes me wonder now what this means for our people, and remaining irgc elements...
I also agree on the notion of what's actually being discussed is never truly disclosed~

@peeta015 It was about absolute surrender and leaving the country in return for:
1- A safe passage
2- Asylum and where to live
3- How much money entitled to take
I really don't think the 5 points 10 points was the deal, absolutely not! They never advertise what was being said!

Twenty people were invited to watch a video exposing the propaganda machine operating in Gaza — children’s TV shows teaching kids to k∗ll Jews, schools funded by the UN promoting antisemitism, and a systematic campaign of indoctrination. Their reactions say everything:

The 𝐈𝐫𝐨𝐧 𝐃𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐯𝐬. 𝐬𝐮𝐢𝐜𝐢𝐝𝐞 𝐯𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐬 analogy hit hardest: “𝘐𝘧 𝘵𝘸𝘰 𝘰𝘧 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘧𝘳𝘪𝘦𝘯𝘥𝘴 𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘧𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘰𝘯𝘦 𝘣𝘶𝘪𝘭𝘵 𝘢 𝘩𝘰𝘶𝘴𝘦 𝘰𝘧 𝘣𝘳𝘪𝘤𝘬𝘴 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘸𝘢𝘪𝘵𝘦𝘥 𝘪𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘤𝘰𝘳𝘯𝘦𝘳 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘢 𝘨𝘶𝘯 𝘵𝘰 𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘵𝘦𝘤𝘵 𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘧𝘢𝘮𝘪𝘭𝘺, 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘰𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳 𝘥𝘶𝘥𝘦 𝘸𝘢𝘴 𝘣𝘶𝘪𝘭𝘥𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘷𝘦𝘴𝘵𝘴 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘱𝘪𝘭𝘰𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘱𝘭𝘢𝘯𝘦𝘴 — 𝘺𝘰𝘶’𝘥 𝘣𝘦 𝘭𝘪𝘬𝘦, 𝘰𝘯𝘦’𝘴 𝘰𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘢𝘵𝘵𝘢𝘤𝘬 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘰𝘯𝘦’𝘴 𝘰𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘥𝘦𝘧𝘦𝘯𝘴𝘦.”

لقد أجريتُ للتوّ مكالمة هاتفية مع وليّ عهد المملكة العربية السعودية، الأمير محمد بن سلمان، بشأن الوضع في الشرق الأدنى والشرق الأوسط.
وقد أكدتُ دعمي لوقف إطلاق النار، الذي يجب احترامه بالكامل وتوسيعه من دون تأخير ليشمل لبنان أيضًا. كما تطرّقنا إلى ضرورة استعادة حرية الملاحة الكاملة والآمنة في مضيق هرمز في أسرع وقت ممكن.
ومع انطلاق محادثاتٍ في إسلام آباد، اتفقنا على البقاء على تواصل وثيق من أجل الإسهام في خفض التصعيد، وضمان حرية الملاحة، والتوصل إلى اتفاق يضمن سلامًا وأمنًا دائمين في المنطقة.
