Why do so many people assume I'm a man? Why do Republicans assume I'm a Liberal? Why do Liberals assume I'm MAGA? Some people would rather ASSume I'm the opposition than face the fact their preconceptions regarding a subject might be wrong.

@adamscochran That's not what happened and it pales in comparison to the other 27 Iran executed between December and January. Not to mention the tens of thousands of protesters that were actually killed by the Iranian Government.

Iran has never contemplated to initiate an unprovoked attack on Europe. Israel, on the other hand, has spent decades theorising what’s dubbed the “Samson Option". Israeli military historian Martin van Creveld put it bluntly back in 2003: " We possess several hundred atomic warheads and rockets and can launch them at targets in all directions, perhaps even at Rome. Most European capitals are targets for our air force… We have the capability to take the world down with us. And I can assure you that that will happen before Israel goes under.” Now, who poses a real threat to the world. A country that has only ever fought defensive wars, or an expansionist apartheid regime with a documented record of genocide that's openly prepared to turn on its own allies the moment support wavers?

🇮🇷 The "told you so" crowd has it backwards... Every hawk on the internet is pointing at Iran's missile range and multi-country retaliation as vindication. "See? We had to hit them. Look how dangerous they are." That reasoning collapses under its own weight. Iran didn't launch anything until it was attacked. Responding to being bombed is not the same as posing an imminent threat. If self-defense proves you deserved to be attacked, then every country with a military is fair game for preemptive war. Capability without intent is not a threat. Brazil has a military. So does Indonesia. Nobody is suggesting they need to be neutralized. The moment you start treating the mere existence of weapons as justification for striking first, you've created a world where every nation on earth is either attacking or waiting to be attacked...

🚨🇺🇸🇮🇷 BREAKING: Trump gives Iran a 48-hour ultimatum to fully open the Strait of Hormuz or the U.S. will obliterate their power plants, "starting with the biggest one first." Three weeks of "winding down" talk just ended with the most aggressive threat of the entire war. Destroying Iran's power grid would plunge 90 million people into darkness and trigger a humanitarian catastrophe. The next two days will define everything. Source: Truth Social

Only the US doesn't need to win militarily. We just need to hold the line and watch them get attacked by their enemies from behind while their people move to overthrow the Islamic Clerics that took over their nation.

@HeerJeet Yeah. He gets it. Very simple. Impossible to impose sanctions that are bypassed by black market trade. Simple.

Yeah, really. And what exactly are they going to do about that? That strange moment where everyone sits back stunned and realizes they have nothing. Power plants fall under the duel-use target category. The restrictions regarding this are rather vague, but when the target also supports a military target it becomes a grey area of intent.

@HarleyShah It helps to understand what is going on by reading the entire history behind the conflict and cherry picking the moment that just sideswiped you because you were not paying attention. congress.gov/crs-product/R4…

I have a wonderful idea. It's really very simple. TELL ISRAEL AND THE US TO STOP BOMBING IRAN. You are demanding that Iran does not retaliate to attacks that were started by those two terrorist states. That Iran should not defend itself. Iran has stated many times that they will respond in kind to any attacks on their citizens, land or infrastructure. Not only has Israel and the US continued attacking Iran, but the UK is also involving itself by allowing their bases to be used for missiles aimed there. When they stop, so will Iran. In order for Iran to cooperate, the first thing has to happen.

@Rep_Stansbury Ok. Since no one has requested those things, it looks like you're in the clear. You can still say one thing and do another, still pick up on those government contracts. 👍

@ImBreckWorsham Yeah. 👀 I'm a rebel. I never picked a side. I learned a long time ago that anyone in power is going to disappoint you. There are no heroes in this story, just people.

I’m politically homeless. War mongers to the left of me. Pedophiles to the right. I've spent my entire adult career covering politics. I always believed I was on side of the good guys. It hurts......There were none.

Yes, this is true. Just watch as the propaganda shifts and they fall into line, but it is a matter of optics and they have to make it sound like it was their idea. It will be a matter of energy pressure and international shipping. 🥱 It's like the world is being run by five year olds.

First: No soldiers have been sent to fight in a war. Second: The US is not the only ones attempting to remove the Islamic Clerics that have taken over the Iranian government and held it for 45 years, turning it into an Islamic terrorist state and killing anyone that stands in protest against their leadership. Finally, there is no blood bath and the only people that died did so in training exercises that ended in an accident. You remind me of my sister-in-law, her name is Karen.

Let’s stop pretending this makes sense: if Democrats really had the power to rig the 2020 election, why the hell wouldn’t they use it again in 2024 to keep Trump out? The conspiracy falls apart the second you apply basic logic. Looking forward to MAGA comments.

@piersmorgan This is a lie. Why do people keep saying this? No where is there a single official report saying that Diego Garcia was hit by a middle from Iran. No where!
