Democrats could and should do more to stop Trump. But this is a marked difference from 2002, when many senior Dems supported the war. The one deranged guy in a hoodie is the only Senate Dem who supports it now.

@BarakRavid Don’t sell them false hope, let the IRGC know what is coming their way

🚨🚨🚨Prime Minister of Pakistan Sharif: Diplomatic efforts for peaceful settlement of the ongoing war in the Middle East are progressing steadily, strongly and powerfully with the potential to lead to substantive results in near future. To allow diplomacy to run its course, I earnestly request President Trump to extend the deadline for two weeks. Pakistan, in all sincerity, requests the Iranian brothers to open Strait of Hormuz for a corresponding period of two weeks as a goodwill gesture. We also urge all warring parties to observe a ceasefire everywhere for two weeks to allow diplomacy to achieve conclusive termination of war, in the interest of long-term peace and stability in the region.

🚨🇺🇸🇮🇷Progress has been made in the past 24 hours in the negotiations between the U.S. & Iran, though reaching a ceasefire deal by President Trump's 8pm deadline still looks like a long shot, four sources tell @MarcACaputo & me. Read out story on @axios axios.com/2026/04/07/ira…

@LibyaLiberty Follow sane Iranian accounts not the looney tones Phalavists and MEL freaks

Until now I don’t think social media has been a big help in expanding people’s understanding about Iran as a rich and complex nation state beyond the political drama and trauma. I hope this changes now. Follow more Iranian accounts as a start. See my pinned post.

What percentage of American war supporters even know Iran has synagogues, or the largest Jewish population in the Middle East outside Israel, or a Jewish member of Parliament? Iranian Jews face restrictions, but one reason it's so easy to demonize a country and start wars is ignorance about that country.

@sharghzadeh You're anti Semitic in your implication of this. You'll go to hell for lying about Israel.

You might disagree with what Trump’s saying he’s going to do…but it’s also pretty sick to deliberately use women and children as human shields like this - there’s even a baby there.

💢 Iran’s UN ambassador said a UN official tasked with helping resolve the Strait of Hormuz matter is en route to Tehran, suggesting ongoing diplomatic efforts to de-escalate and end the conflict, according to AP.
Farnoush Amiri@FarnoushAmiri
👀Iranian ambassador to UN says that a United Nations official charged with resolving the Strait of Hormuz issue and help mediators bring an end to the conflict is on his way to Tehran as we speak "Iran stands ready to engage constructively with all genuine diplomatic efforts."

@Seamus_Malek @JGreenblattADL is moments away from releasing a condemnatory message. You wait.
English
Has anyone seen any Jewish organization anywhere condemn the destruction of a synagogue in Tehran from a US-Israeli attack or is everyone just going to ignore it
English
@ClayTravis Right Iran allegedly killed 45K of its people so Clay Travis will now support Trump killing 90 million Iranians.

Glenn, Iran killed 45,000 of its own people for protesting. You are angrier about a Trump Tweet than Iran mass murdering its own people.
Glenn Greenwald@ggreenwald
What's the big deal when the leader of a nuclear-armed power -- currently blowing up bridges, schools and oil refineries in Iran -- explicitly threatens to impose civilizational annihilation at 8pm ET (prime-time) tonight? Lighten up, guys. It's just Trump having his fun.

If Hegseth can’t stop Trump from committing war crimes, he needs to resign. Today.

A madman has control of the most powerful military in the history of the world and the leaders of his party are too afraid to say or do anything to stop him.

@ggreenwald The amount of money Zionists have pumped into the political system, I cannot imagine these corrupt, soulless politicians giving that up so easily. They want theirs and couldn’t care less if millions of people die.

The response of Democratic members of Congress to this genocidal threat from Trump -- in the middle of an unfathomably dangerous and destructive war that he started with Israel -- should be to talk more about Hasan Piker.
ian bremmer@ianbremmer
it looks bad for the us president to threaten genocide

@NatalieEcanow @Jerusalem_Post @FDD @SinanCiddi These Zionist Jews are Israel first religious lunatics. They have 0 care for America and its citizens.

Is Turkey on deck to become the Middle East’s new Iran?
In @Jerusalem_Post, my @FDD colleague @SinanCiddi and I explain why the answer is likely yes.
Turkey and Iran are not identical. But depicting Turkey as a nuisance or simply complicated only emboldens a maturing adversarial regime with a record of undermining its Western allies.
The Jerusalem Post@Jerusalem_Post
Opinion: Continuing to label Turkey as a reliable NATO ally is dangerous, as Ankara’s ambitions erode the very alliance structures that have long sustained Western security. jpost.com/opinion/articl…

@RoKhanna Its amazing how Zionist beholden Dem leadership refuses to defend Obama’s JCPOA

Thank you for the compliment on Obama style.
He had gotten 97% of enriched uranium out of Iran until Trump ripped up the agreement.

Classic Obama style leading from behind.

@ZaidJilani Zaid, please stop qualifying and apologizing for calling the senile old man, Hitler. He is insane.
English
Trump sounds like Hitler. Sorry, he does. And the sad part is many people in the U.S. including elites in media and politics will not rein him in when they have the power to.

"a whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again" + "God bless the people of Iran" I know it is fashionable to blame the politicians and not the people, but America is a truly sick nation if they're not doing anything to stop this unhinged maniac.

@emmabrown_02 @JavierBlas Both of you Ghouls need psychiatric help. Fuck off you Nazis!
English
The human body has a "fight or flight" response, but the IRGC is forcing a "shield and die" response on its own youth.
By calling for human chains around power plants, Tehran isn't defending national assets; they are weaponizing their own people's lives to cover for their failed blockade.
Using civilians as human shields is a sign of ultimate desperation, a regime that hides behind its students because it can't face a 2,000lb bunker-buster in a fair fight. 🇮🇷🛑
English
Iran is likely to deploy human shields to its bridges and power plants tonight. The use of civilians as human shields is banned under the Geneva Conventions (article 51).
