@JustNowReport Dear Qatari Prime Minister:
Please take back the luxurious 747 plane you offered Trump. He is an ungrateful bastard who has no qualms about stabbing his allies in the back.

BREAKING: Qatar’s Prime Minister:
This war needs to stop immediately. The aggression needs to stop immediately.
Because everyone knows who the main beneficiary of this war is, and dragging the whole region into this conflict is.... View more

@susanabulhawa What's most disturbing is the fact that negotiations with Iran were reported as being very progressive, all the way up the day before the US attacked Iran.
The Trump administration is an unforgivable disaster. No communication, only high-strung egos duelling with each other.
English
this statement reeks of zionist obfuscation tactics.
1. ignore the unprovoked US-Israel aggression that started the war (as well as the cruel sanctions and previous unprovoked attacks preceding this one)
2. ignore Iran's repeated efforts at diplomacy.
3. ignore Iran's decades long restraint, not retaliating after repeated unprovoked attacks (downing of civilian flight, Israel's assassination of their scientists, assassination of Soleimani, assassination of Haniyyeh on their soil, and so on).
4. pretend the dozens of massive US military bases surrounding them in neighboring countries and use of their airspaces have nothing to do with the merciless aggression against Iran.
5. name Iran's retaliation and self defense as irrational aggression.
6. condemn Iran.
7. flip the script to make it seem like Iran is attacking its neighbors without provocation.

@SenMarkey Dear Senator Markey!
You must do everything to stop Trump from further dragging the US into oblivion.
You must turn a blind eye to what is required by the constitution. Desperate times require desperate measures.

@ChinaGlobl How is it that leaders from other countries speak with reason, logic, and intelligenz.
While we have to watch and put with an impertinent, arrogant, ignorant maniac destroying the world economy?

🚨🇨🇳🇮🇷 BREAKING |
Chinese President: "If Gulf states want to protect their oil from Iranian strikes, they must prevent the U.S. from attacking Iran and its leadership from bases within their territories. This is justice."

@redpillb0t GAZA is a delicate subject.
HAMAS was operating among the civilians. It had many underground stations. And it had the support of Iran. To watch the horrific humanitarian tragedy was terrible. Where was the United States then?
English
Jeffery Sachs: “Israel's doctrine is kill its adversaries. Kill them in mass numbers, kill the civilians, kill the women, kill the children. They don't discriminate between civilians and military targets. They leveled Gaza... It is a rogue, brutal regime...”

@RepMcGovern And dropping drones and killing people on fishing boats accused w/o proof of drug smuggling is
MURDER, PLAN AN SIMPLE!

By blocking power to Cuba’s hospitals, the United States is guilty of committing a serious human rights abuse.
Under Donald Trump’s leadership, America is becoming an international pariah.
Diplomacy and engagement should be our strategy. NOT a blockade.
English
@carlbildt Mexico is also sending oil to Cuba.
Trump: "I know nothing about it."
Trump's attempt to pit the Latin countries against each other fails.

Two 🇷🇺 oil tankers are approaching 🇨🇺 in defiance of 🇺🇸 attempts to strangle the islands energy supplies. Let’s see what happens.

@Ignis_Rex Exactly!
The US Air Bases were installed to protect the economy and people of these gulf states and serve as a springboard for fighting other wars in the region.
Unfortunately for these states, the US enemy Iran is just across the Hormuz Strait.
English
Let's call it by its right name:
Without the US bases in Saudi Arabia, Qatar, UAE, Bahrain, and Kuwait, this war would never have reached this scale.
If America had to launch every sortie from its own soil, it wouldn't have the courage to do so.
Those who turn their lands into bases of attack become parties to the war; Iran also has the legitimate right to strike these countries.
Hasan Akaras@hasanakaras
Adını tam koyalım: Suudi Arabistan, Katar, BAE, Bahreyn ve Kuveyt'teki ABD üsleri olmasa bu savaş asla bu boyutta olmazdı. Amerika her sortiyi kendi toprağından yapmak zorunda kalsa buna cesaret edemezdi. Topraklarını saldırı üssü haline getirenler savaşın tarafı olur; İran'ın da bu ülkeleri vurması meşru hakkıdır.
English
@Its_ereko That's great news!
Can anyone remember just one country that Trump has helped in natural disasters or other calamities.
English
🇲🇽🇨🇺 BREAKING: Mexico will send oil to Cuba. Trump's blockade has fallen.
60 years of embargo. 60 years of trying to starve an island.
Now Mexico breaks the siege. Oil shipments. Solidarity. Sovereignty.
The US can sanction. Can threaten. Can block.
But neighbors help. Neighbors deliver. Neighbors don't forget.
Cuba has been alone too long. Mexico just changed that.
The blockade isn't gone. But it's cracked. And cracks spread.
Mexico sends oil. The world watches. The empire fumes.
Solidarity wins. Every time.

@OunkaOnX Whenever Trump says something positive about the war, no matter how false, it is meant to influence the stock market.
That's all he is worried about. Money and power!
English
Trump: "Their Navy is gone. Their Air Force is gone. Their anti-aircraft is gone. We're flying wherever we want. Nobody is even shooting at us."
Meanwhile, US bases are hit daily, drones are flying unchallenged, and the Strait is closed. The man is living in a fantasy where reality doesn't matter
English
@AliAbunimah Iran and Qatar jointly own and share the world's largest natural gas field, known as South Pars on the Iranian side and the North Field (or North Dome) on the Qatari side.
The gulf states are playing both sides. They are treading lightly. Oil is their livelihood.
English
It remains astonishing that all these countries still cannot not spare a single word of condemnation for the Zionist-American aggression against Iran and its people, including the murder of its leaders, nor do they call for a halt to the attacks on Iran or an end to the war.

@KanwalSibal Appropriate efforts will include what?
Get Trump away from the Iran war, appropriately preferable.
But Americans can be flexible when push comes to shove.
English
No word of condemnation of continuing US/ Israeli aggression against Iran.
If Iran’s actions to block the Strait of Hormuz are illegal, so is the US/ Israeli war on Iran.
Iran’s Homuz action follows the US/ Israeli aggression, not precedes it.
If blocking the Strait is causing pain to the developing countries, so is the spike in oil prices resulting from this US/ Israeli aggression.
No word about the Israeli attack on South Pars which has provoked Iran to attack oil/ gas facilities in Qatar and other Gulf countries.
The reference in this joint statement of the signatory countries making preparations to act appropriately in the Hornuz Strait is a veiled threat of intervention which can worsen matters.
Pressure on Iran not to attack its neighbours is understandable but not strongly asking Israel and the US to end their attacks on Iran is not taking a balanced position.
Jacqui Heinrich@JacquiHeinrich
NEW: UK, France, Germany, Italy, Netherlands, & Japan issue joint statement expressing “readiness to contribute to appropriate efforts” to ensure safe passage through the Strait of Hormuz, welcoming nations engaging in prep/planning & coordinating SPR releases and ways to increase output.

@johnstanly If there are forces to help Trump win elections, can we have some of the same for Trump losing?
Oh, never mind! He is helping himself.
English
The EU, China and India should join hands and step in. They should condemn this disastrous war brought upon the world by netanyahu and trump and ask them to stop -- we all are suffering because of these two men's delusions, hubris and utter disregard for international law. They should ask Putin to mediate between trump and Tehran, and enforce a ceasefire. Iran should be provided guarantees against future aggression and it should stop its all-out retaliatory attacks. The Strait should be reopened. It's time to bring this madness to an end. Else it will further spiral out of control-- we are talking about millions of people who are going to bear the brunt.
English
@RafaMorgan64 Trump did not even consult the US Congress, just announcing his hair brained intention on X to all the EU allies.
Nobel does not have a price for biggest loser of the year. Trump would certainly get it.
English
MAGA'S FAILURE.
Trump will try by all means to blame others for his disastrous and illegal intervention in Iran.
He will blame his withdrawal not on the 60 days granted by his presidential powers, but on the allies he insulted, disrespected, imposed arbitrary tariffs on, and of course, did NOT consult before this intervention.
He made the mistake of considering the allies as vassals and encountered the Spanish, who are not vassals even to themselves.
Get your popcorn ready, the 60 days are about to expire, and we will hear all sorts of excuses from Trump, a universal loser.
The worst part will be what comes next for Americans.

@anders_aslund About number 2:
Does Trump know about this joint ownership between Iran and Qatar?
This war is getting more complicated by the minute!
English
This Trump statement is interesting.
1. Trump has no idea what Israel is doing in their joint war on Iran.
2. The South Pars field bombed by Israel is jointly owned by Iran and US sally Qatar.
3. Israel goes against US policy & Trump does nothing.
Israel is wagging its US tail.

@OunkaOnX The dealer-in-chief finally got dealt with.
But it's at the price of US troops dying, and that is very tragic.
English
@WayneWaldropW That question is no longer easy to answer.
After October 7, 2023, Israel does not want a repeat. Israel went to the culprit of its conflict, Iran, which supports Hamas and Hezbollah.
To invite the US was a big mistake. Now,more than ever, Iran wants Israel destroyed.
English
I'd like to see Trump try to publicly explain why Israel is allowed to do whatever they want and get away with it.

@WayneWaldropW The State of Israel was established on May 14, 1948, following the United Nations partition plan of 1947 and the expiration of the British Mandate. It was founded as a sovereign Jewish state, rooted in Zionist ideology, aiming to provide a homeland for the Jewish people.
English
@aleksbrz11 Notwithstanding my horror for Iran's treatment of its protesters, when Iran is attacked, it has the right to defend itself.
But threatening to dismantle the "fake" state of Israel is not endearing Israel to bury its hatchets.
However, involving the US is a big mistake.
English
🚨BREAKING NEWS
Iranian Revolutionary Guard:
"Should we trust Trump, who attacks at the negotiating table, or Netanyahu, who repeatedly promises not to harm the Palestinians and breaks that promise every time?
The end of the war is the destruction of all US military bases in the region.
The end of the war is the expulsion of the US from the Persian Gulf.
The end of the war is the dismantling of the fake state of Israel, the expulsion of the Zionists, and the return of the Palestinians to their lands."
