@Rainmaker1973 DAP gone forever

Daniel Davis has floated the 25th Amendment & impeachment as well as called “war crimes” on certain actions of the USA military — which, by extension, makes Commander-in-Chief a war criminal. OTOH, Davis has not named any recent actions by Iran “war crimes”. The colonel is borderline TDS — blaming Trump, excusing Iran. He does not possess the requisite objectivity to assess decisions by Potus wrt Iran’s acquisition of nukes. I hope the WSJ is more neutral than DD.

@realHelenAng @DanielLDavis1 " He is not a media practitioner to judge the merit of WSJ reportage". Come on, you don't need to be a reporter to see the propoganda in today's media. You just need common sense. No expertise required.

A profoundly flawed assessment from the WSJ and yet the latest evidence for the rot that has plagued our alleged elite class in America. Diplomacy did not “fail to stop” North Korea from getting a nuclear weapon; the presence of a reflexively antagonistic foreign policy pushed them in that direction. Remember, it was in 2002 that Bush declared North Korea part of an “axis of evil” and convinced them that the U.S. had made them an enemy and the only way to guarantee they wouldn’t b the next victim of regime change was to go nuclear - which they did in 2006. It was precisely the *absence* of diplomacy that led to this war now, bc we had a nuclear deal *in place* that would have guaranteed Iran nvr developed a nuclear bomb, but Trump destroyed it in 2018. Then on the 26th of February he had another golden diplomatic achievement in hand as Iran offered a better deal than the 2015 Obama version, agreeing to ZERO enrichment. But Trump destroyed that deal too, ignoring the offer, choosing instead to plunge us into war. That the WSJ considers itself an emit paper is not laughable, but dangerous bc we can only conclude they intentionally ignore these basic facts to instead provide fodder to support yet more war, regardless of the immorality of it or the cost in blood of our troops. This kind of thinking is a danger to our Republic.

@Dove2050 @DanielLDavis1 @Dove2050 I’m not a nuclear expert. I’m not a military historian. I’m not a diplomat. I studied journalism in uni & worked in English-language 🇲🇾 newspapers. For several years, I wrote a column on socio-politics. I choose for my bio in X to say: “Love dogs”. ❤️🐶 ❤️🐶 ❤️🐶

@realHelenAng @DanielLDavis1 Last verified Helen Ang is from Malaysia and she “loves dogs”.

DAP has six Indian 🙈🙉🙊 MPs who have failed to notice the online hate directed at Indians in general b’cos of one drunk driver. Rayer has spoken up about the ‘murder’ charge but what abt the rest? Usual ⛪️🐁 silence? @GobindSinghDeo @ramkarpal @rsnrayer @ganabatirau1 @mkula_official & V. Sivakumar c/o @dapmalaysia

SO TRUE!!!

To everyone asking why Iran is making LEGO videos… do you know the literacy rate in the United States???

The GCC, in one voice, have strongly condemned Iran. Half the GCC countries have already broken/downgraded diplomatic relations with Iran. Damaged bases can be rebuilt after the war but Iran will find it more difficult to rebuild the relationship with its Arab neighbours that Tehran attacked. Iran has fired ~400 ballistic missiles at UAE & ~50 at Saudi Arabia. All the GCC countries have been attacked by Iran, e.g. a Kuwaiti oil supertanker was attacked by Iranian drones, a Watari oil tanker was hit by Iranian cruise missile How do you think the Saudis, Emiratis, Kuwaitis, Qataris, Bahrainis & Omanis (Sunni Arabs) feel about the mullah regime (Shia Persians) today & tomorrow? Between Donald Trump & Daniel Davis, I trust Potus more. Why? B’cos Davis is retired from the military & did not serve in Iran although he had experience in Afghanistan & Iraq. He is podcasting from home/his studio & does not have intel from Iran. Davis’ anti-war audience overlaps with the anti-war Dave Smith audience. While I still have some respect for Davis, all I can say about Smith is — “never been”, never served, never stops talking. The anti-war crowd is so addled by TDS & disinformation that it has impaired their critical thinking.

@realHelenAng @DanielLDavis1 Congratulations to General Trump. He's destroyed all our bases in the GCC country's. And went to war with no congressional debate. That in itself is TDS.

BREAKING: Four U.S. aircraft reported either shot down or damaged over Iran today: 1 F15, 1 A10, 2x Blackhawks This, after SecWar Hegseth & Chairman of Joint Chiefs Gen. Caine continue to tell America all of Iranian air defenses have been obliterated. Self-evidently that was untrue. The Intercept has revealed in the last 24hrs that Pentagon officials have also been hiding actual U.S. military casualty numbers. Why is the White House and Pentagon so opaque with the American people on the truth of this war? The justification for launching this war of choice was also an absolute lie - the alleged "imminent threat" of a nuclear Iran, even after the same Admin claimed their ability had been "obliterated" last year. Further, they lied to us by claiming the Iranian regime was "as weak as it has been in 47 years" prior to the war, implying that all we needed was a hard push and they'd collapse. That obviously didn't happen either, and now here we are, with a rising casualty count, increasing numbers of combat losses - now into the many billions of dollars - and the allegedly weak Iranian government and military firmly in control of the Strait of Hormuz. We have no military means to force it open, and we've forfeited the option of negotiations, because we twice lied to Iran about good-faith diplomacy, only to reveal that we used it as cover to launch military ops. This is the bitter fruit of fraud and arrogance. I fear we've yet to find out how deep the cost will be before this war finally comes to an end.

Zaid Ibrahim: “[PAS] do not need a bunch of non-Malays mosquito parties to give them a veneer of respectability and a moderate tag.” ✔️ Zaid Ibrahim: “PAS, with its allies, is confident of the non-Malays' support for governing the country.” ✖️ REALITY of GE16 ☑️ PAS is able to get Indian support on its own ☑️ PAS can succeed without Chinese support ☑️ The next gomen will be a bumiputera coalition ☑️ Cina will stick to DAP & become the opposition after 2027/8

The good news of this week is the PAS's rejection of the Muhiyuddin coalition. Yes, PAS, with its allies, is confident of the non-Malays' support for governing the country. They do not need a bunch of non-Malays mosquito parties to give them a veneer of respectability and a moderate tag The non-Malays have begun to realise that the greatest danger to the country is not hudud, but the breakdown of law and order. The institutions of government have all been penetrated by Mafia operators, not dissimilar to the way the Epstein class have taken control of the American government Our Mafia operators are the elites consolidating their hold on government and the privately owned assets. They carved out billion-dollar projects for themselves and their goons. They redefine national interests to fit their agenda Ordinary Malaysians of all races are acutely aware of the need to disembowel the beast so that the country can be governed properly. They know that greed must be managed with firm leadership through a transparent and responsible government. Somebody must put the chameleon aside

@CrashOveride513 @userwhothinks @catturd2 Shed ‘your’ blood: Are you in the military?

@userwhothinks @realHelenAng @catturd2 Seems like if that was the case the Arabs could just smite them and be done with it. Why do I have to shed my blood and spend my tax dollars "defending" Isreal. The Bible was 2000 years ago "Isreal" was created in 1945. Let them defend themselves.

Batshit crazy. Listening to doomers 24/7 will rot your brain and soul.

Col. Davis is the expert to provide us more clarity on the Kharg Question. Calculus of Costs on potential amphibious/air assault to seize and hold Kharg Island. He said it’ll be a “suicide mission”. • Assess KIA/WIA thresholds. How much of the assault force does he expect to be lost in the initial insertion? • Equipment attrition (helicopters/Ospreys, resupply aircraft, naval assets in confined waters of the strait) • Medevac (Israel’s is super high tech), daily sustainment rates where units can remain combat-effective • Under fire from Iranian mainland & drones, viable extraction of the landing force These are the things you could be asking Col. Davis to provide his analyses on. FYI (my country): The Strait of Malacca in Malaysian territorial waters is a similarly narrow chokepoint & vital to shipping & next door to South China Sea

@realHelenAng @DanielLDavis1 You can’t take that island and hold it. We have no navy to back it up or any other resources. After what happened today how could you possibly send troops to that island and think it’s going to make a difference?

It’s a norm to curate sensitive info during wartime, e.g. letters home from WWI soldiers must pass through military censors. Israel tries to blackout news of where missiles landed (coordinates) in their homeland b’cos they don’t want to provide targeting advantage to the enemy. Likewise, when a fighter jet is downed, the news is not immediately confirmed & blared to the world or else the rescue helicopters would come under Iranian attack too. The pilots who ejected are still trying to evade capture on the ground. So it’s understandable that USA might prefer to keep certain details under wraps, incl. slow-rolling any announcement of fatalities. But in the age of Internet, your Podcast Bros are demanding immediate 100% transparency & increasing risks for the troops.

@realHelenAng @DanielLDavis1 If it’s not as bad as you think, why defend the US government in not releasing actual numbers? Your defensiveness doesn’t make sense? People want their governments to be transparent!

@ML7077 @zaidibrahim You’re pathetic, @ML7077. I said at least 3,000 — that is three zeroes ⤵️ x.com/realhelenang/s…

@realHelenAng @zaidibrahim Let's see the evidence of 30,000 Iranians killed. Show your photos

When Iran let our oil tankers through the Straits of Hormuz, many thought it was because of our famous telephone diplomacy. We like to show off how we could call the head of state of so many countries. For those with short memories, Iran was nice to us not because of the telephone calls but because it remembers. Iran remembers that in 1988, after the deleterious 8-year war with the US/ Iraq, it had no money to buy anything. Dr M supplied palm oil, construction, and foodstuffs in a barter trade. That's how we helped them in times of crisis. Iran has not forgotten We are different now. When the maniac Trump and Israel bombed Iran, promising the world they would put Iran back in the Stone Age, we did not utter a word of condemnation. Of course not. We welcome US battleships to refuel and replenish . We are now buddies with America, Amazon, and BlackRock. If this country decides to go the Satanic way, what can we do? We can only hope Iran will prevail because Iran remembers.

Good morning & happy Caturday. No mayhem. Only a merkitten playing under the sea.

It’s well for me to clarify here — I do not think Iran is a bad country & I don’t see Iranians as bad guys. I see the post-1979 regime as totalitarian & some people (I don’t know how many percent) living in Iran want change. My country 🇲🇾 is part of the Islamic world (OIC countries) & the impact of the 1979 Iranian revolution spread & affected Muslim countries. Think burqa, as one example. If the trajectory of 1979 is reversed, it will again affect Muslim countries. War & peace decisions are above my pay grade. I’m only venting here b’cos I see Daniel Davis going down the Tucker Carlson rabbit hole — one track & agenda driven.

@Yasthetwit @realHelenAng @DanielLDavis1 If you know anything about history you would know why Iran chants death to America. But I’m guessing you just think they spontaneously started hating the USA HINT: Our government is not the good guys here.

@Yasthetwit @EddieG3141 @DanielLDavis1 Noted

@realHelenAng @EddieG3141 @DanielLDavis1 I took this still from the clip you just posted. There for all to see: in Farsi it’s written “marg bar Amrika” in English, it’s Down With USA, not Death to USA but DOWN with… because Farsi lacks the term “Down with…..”

@michaelapuscar @DanielLDavis1 Apa khabar? Selamat sejahtera. Jom makan! Agree with you. Least govt control with smallest bureaucracy, fewest legislation/least red tape is best.

I moved to Colombia, I like it there. The best countries are new with weak central governments. Then you're free to do whatever you like without government interference as long as you don't violate anyone else's rights. Because governments universally lie. They need to justify their own existence and growth. Btw I used to speak fluent Malay 25 years ago but I forgot most of it. 😅

I’m not sure how credible Daniel Davis is anymore, e.g. he characterised (presumably) the taking of Kharg Island as a “suicide mission”. By what metrics? He did not say. His recent analyses are overblown & tinged with TDS —like he’s pushing an agenda at all cost (his otherwise valid military observations aside). In my country 🇲🇾 we may dislike our PMs but never to the point of derangement as the Blue Americans & Dave Smith types are constantly exhibiting. His second-guessing & the Podcast Bros chorus are undermining the war that USA has already entered.

@realHelenAng @DanielLDavis1 If World War II had had Internet coverage like today. There would’ve been a lot of second-guessing and a lot of senior commanders that would’ve been removed. Colonel Davis is just telling the truth on just how terrible our military has become

@Yasthetwit @EddieG3141 @DanielLDavis1 Thanks again, Yasmin. All the best to you & your loved ones. Stay safe. Here’s the replica missiles clip I failed to attach earlier.

@realHelenAng @EddieG3141 @DanielLDavis1 And you can hear them here saying “marg bar” and burning Zarif’s picture (ex foreign minister). There isn’t another way to show discontent.

@michaelapuscar @DanielLDavis1 Point taken. If you’re American, is there some other country you’d prefer to reside in where you think the govt is more forthright?

@realHelenAng @DanielLDavis1 Oh I don't know, the Epstein files, every job and inflation report for the last year, fake negotiations with Iran, 8 tankers going through the Strait of Hormuz, I mean it'd be more difficult to find what they have been straight about.

Thank you for explaining, Yasmin. We can hear the “marg bar Amrika” chant in this video clip. The thing is, Iran’s death chanters also display replica missiles. So there is no mistaking their intention.

@realHelenAng @EddieG3141 @DanielLDavis1 American schoolchildren can say “Down with Mexico”! Iranians can’t because they don’t have the term “Down with”. To condemn something they say “marg bar” (Death to). Iranians wish death upon heavy traffic, a bad cold or anything they’re pisses off with.
