I resigned as U.S. Ambassador Ukraine when Trump kept siding with Putin over our democratic partner. Now, my successor is doing the same. I knew I had to speak out and run for office because siding with dictators is just not who we are.

@danobrien20 🤣😂🤣😂

For decades, Europe had hoped China would play by the rules, even as it subsidised its companies and kept in place a range of measures that hindered European companies in the Chinese market. Nothing much happened because everyone was making money. Now, as European companies are being pushed out of China and Chinese goods flood the European market, Europeans are pushing back. Beijing's response: threats. Anyone who thinks that a pivot to China is some sort of 'geopolitical hedge' is naïve, or worse.

@Narandeltallzin @karaponet Imagine commenting on a very stupid post only to be just as stupid, but in a different way. Japan literally made slaves of the people it colonized.

@karaponet Japan registered all people within its sphere of influence as human beings and governed them equally, so it was different from what you call colonial rule. Singapore is the command center for colonial rule in Southeast Asia.

there are currently only four types of high-income countries in the world: English-speaking countries, countries close to England, resource-abundant countries, and Japan and its former colonies (namely Taiwan and South Korea). nber.org/papers/w32667

I’m struck by Reza Pahlavi’s dignity and empathy, which come through in his visible indignation at the journalists’ behavior. Nothing about it feels staged : you can sense how deeply he suffers from what his people are enduring and from the appalling way they are treated.

@YourGirl_Rae @BeijingDai 🤣😂🤣😂 バカ

@BeijingDai That's cheap propaganda. I met many Japanese people in my life. One of my best friends was Japanese. None of them was disrespectful or rude, not even once. Japanese tourists are always polite and calm. Japan has the right to complain about rude foreigners.

Except for Chinese and Koreans, the world did not know much about Japanese in the past. People around the world — especially in Western countries — grew up watching Japanese anime, playing with Japanese toys, using Japanese electronics, and driving Japanese cars. In their impression, the Japanese are polite, constantly bowing, apologizing, or expressing admiration for the West. For a long time, people had a favorable impression of Japan. Then, seemingly overnight, they started reading what Japanese users were actually saying on X — and they realized that the Japanese are, in fact, a deeply dark, socially Darwinist, power-worshipping, perverse, evil, and racist people. And they find it utterly disgusting. I've said it before: Japan has the most isolated internet enviorment in the world. The Japanese-language internet is the largest echo chamber in existence. No one outside Japan could read Japanese — and most Japanese couldn't read any other language. They were like animals in Australia, disconnected from the rest of the world, gradually evolving all sorts of strange shape. Japanese post wildly outrageous comments without restraint, developing all kinds of extreme and distorted theories. Then Musk introduced automatic translation — and the mask fell off. To everyone's shock, the vast majority of Japanese netizens turned out to be right‑wing extremists, each more radical than the last. They fight with everyone around the world, flinging insults and attacks, lying through their teeth, refusing to acknowledge their own historical crimes, and casually calling for the "elimination" of anyone who disagrees with them. That's when people finally understood: the Chinese and the Koreans were right all along.

@MatejFabiani @Megatron_ron So you're saying Trump is a hero?

BREAKING: 🇺🇸🇮🇱 Israelis do not pay for the weapons "we sell them," rather American taxpayers pay for them - Quincy Institute Most US arms "sales" to Israel are conducted through the Foreign Military Financing (FMF) program. This aid is like a gift card for purchasing weapons. What appears to be an arms sale is in practice funded by American taxpayers.

Greenland is Denmark. Donbas and Crimea are Ukraine. Falkland Islands are British.

@vonderleyen @ZelenskyyUa You belong in The Hague.

Today is a good day for Europe and Ukraine.   Last time I was with you in Kyiv, dear Volodymir @ZelenskyyUa, I said we would deliver the €90 bn loan - one way or the other.   Today, we deliver on this promise. x.com/i/broadcasts/1…

@bundeskanzler How can they stop something that they never had? You complain about something that's not even happening but make excuses to support genocide. I really hope you and your ilk are sent to The Hague where you belong.

We call upon Iran to end its nuclear weapon program and to cease threatening Israel and other neighboring states. The Strait of Hormuz must be kept open permanently, reliably, and without any restrictions or tolls. 2/3

We welcome the extension of the ceasefire between the US and Iran. It is an important opportunity to resume diplomatic negotiations, make peace, and avert further escalation of the conflict. Tehran should seize this opportunity as well. 1/3

@HF99345727 @MaxBlumenthal 😂🤣😂🤣

@MaxBlumenthal Who tf r u bro? We Iranians support Trump and Bibi. Also the video you've quoted is a terrorist regime supporters gathering in occupied Iran.

"I want to give a message to Donald Trump and the pig Netanyahu: You're threatening Iran, but as long as Iran exists, you have to sit in your place."

@JonBAnthony11 @MaxBlumenthal 🤣😂🤣😂

@MaxBlumenthal Crane in the background...Incredible people like you are supporting this monstrous regime

@truthseeking19 @TheGrayzoneNews @wyattreed13 45,000!? Don't you mean 45,000,000!? Why such low numbers!? How much are the mullahs paying you!? Disgusting!

@TheGrayzoneNews @wyattreed13 oh yeah right! Because the whole world knows that people love living under an oppressive regime that just slaughtered 45,000 of their fellow citizens and family members.

@TheGrayzoneNews @wyattreed13 Wouldn't they be killed if they supported anything else?

@marklevinshow You belong in The Hague.

ARM THE IRANIAN PEOPLE ... IMHO, the people of Iran need to be armed.  Even if there are divisions among various opposition groups.  We cannot defeat the regime, which has demonstrated time and again it must be defeated, without the people within Iran having a fighting chance to destroy the regime from within.  I am not sure what the hesitancy is.  If arms were stolen, by whom and for what?  Regardless, it is the most direct way to take down the regime.  As I've pointed out before, President Reagan used this as part of his doctrine against the Soviet Union -- in Afghanistan, Angola, Nicaragua, etc.

This is legal-sounding spin, not how maritime law works. The Strait of Hormuz is an international strait. Ships have a right to transit passage. Iran can regulate for safety, but it can’t block, suspend, or selectively target traffic based on politics. This thread swaps in “innocent passage” rules (wrong regime), stretches limited powers into total control, and then adds moral accusations to shut down debate. You don’t get to close a global chokepoint and call it “lawful.” That’s exactly what the law is designed to prevent.

Except you miss five key points: First, Iran has a right to reasonably control non-Innocent passage through the strait. Second, as a coastal state, Iran can lawfully govern safety, environmental protection, and marine traffic in the Strait, particularly while the extraordinarily lawless activities of the aggressors are occurring there. Third, Iran can temporarily suspend innocent passage in the Strait during the ongoing aggression against it, as this is essential for its security.  Fourth, Iran can assert maritime law enforcement in the Strait, especially with regard to ships relating to the aggressor nations, to others complicit in the aggression, as well as those seeking transit to or from the Israeli regime perpetrating apartheid and genocide. And fifth and most importantly, international law is not a smorgasbord. You can’t assert significantly less important provisions on commercial navigation (fees) while supporting aggression and genocide(the most serious crimes). And you can’t condemn measures adopted in self-defense by the victim while defending the aggressors. Unless you are hopelessly corrupt or a soulless hypocrite, of course.

@kajakallas Far more importantly, genocide is against international law as well as attacking other countries. It's weird that you don't do anything about those far worse crimes.

Under international law, transit through waterways like the Strait of Hormuz must remain open and free of charge. This is what leaders made clear in their call on reopening the Strait today. Any pay-for-passage scheme will set a dangerous precedent for global maritime routes. Iran has to abandon any plan to levy transit fees. Europe will play its part in restoring the free flow of energy and trade, once a ceasefire takes hold. The EU’s Aspides naval mission is already operating in the Red Sea and can be quickly strengthened to protect shipping across the region. This could be the fastest way to provide support.

@CensoredVoiceHQ @AnaKasparian 😂🤣😂🤣

@AnaKasparian Ana Kastrarian wants to take Israel's right to defend itself. She referred to Jews as "trash" and wished for rerun of the Holocaust. Jew-hatred rots your brain.

Take the trash out please. Left and right.
