@rupechat @GiveMeADouble @mehdiy_fa @glcarlstrom @SiaKordestani And the threat worked.
If Trump won't give Iran what it wants, Iran can easily shut the strait again, much easier than the US can bring back its armada.

@GiveMeADouble @mehdiy_fa @glcarlstrom @SiaKordestani The card wasn’t the ships per say but the threat
English
@glcarlstrom @SiaKordestani They haven’t agreed to anything beyond a ceasefire and opening Hormuz. Reaching a full deal will be hard, and the ceasefire may need to be extended for a long time. Trump will not go back to the war, though. He paid a heavy political price and is happy this conflict has ended.
English
@LukeGromen Have the Israelis - and, more importantly, the Jewish Lobby in the US - signed off on this?
If Trump agrees to a deal over the objections of Israel and the Jewish Lobby, it will mark a seismic shift in DC, not seen since the end of the Cold War.
English
Have the insurers signed off on this?

*IRAN SAYS SAFE PASSAGE VIA HORMUZ 'POSSIBLE' FOR TWO WEEKS

@EstebanV333 @mv_nft @LukeGromen Yeah, we're way past these games.
"Da Joos" shtick doesn't work anymore. I realize that it's annoying when the cattle get uppity, but there it is.
English
@Scocar45 @LukeGromen Sure, we do.
The problem is trusting Trump and his crazy girlfriend Israel. Granted, even Trump seems to know that this war is lost. Israel, however, knows that this is its last chance, so it will do everything it can to blow up this ceasefire.
English
@mercycubed @LukeGromen Um, who killed the other side's negotiators?
Are you saying that dealing w/ the US and its crazy girlfriend Israel is better than dealing w/ Iran?
English
@LukeGromen Negotiations that are not direct with the theocracy of Iran are pointless.
The West pointedly ignores that Iran has a completely different structure to their nation state than Western nations. The democratic arm is only a puppet to its theocracy.
This is the same old shit.
English
@SantiagoAuFund Only the US can completely lose a war - and, yet, someone come out way ahead.
1. World will look to US & US-controlled countries for energy as ME is too unreliable
2. US will likely pull back from detrimental presence in ME
3. US may distance itself from its crazy girlfriend
English
Even if the Strait fully opens and stays open…the ramifications 6-9 months down the road are already baked in.

@captive_dreamer That she accepts the Holocaust narrative as 100% accurate should be disqualifying enough.
English
Insane to see these posts with tens of thousands of likes and nothing actually happened. These people are all mentally ill.
Marci Shore@marci_shore
I've taught European history for 30 years. Americans have always asked me how the Holocaust was possible, how Germans could have enabled a madman reveling in mass murder to carry out his plans. Now we can see in real time how this is enabled; now we have front-row seats.
English
@sufferhorse @restoreorderusa Yeah, that line is working about as well as calling people Woke Right. No one is buying it.
Instead of focusing on immigration and reshoring our manufacturing, Trump is fighting yet another stupid war for Israel.
English
@restoreorderusa Never seen so many wignats simp for third worlders
English
Believe it or not, you can express skepticism toward foreign interventions without sounding like an MSNBC resistance lib.
Some of you would benefit from keeping that in mind.
English
@RandMatthews @restoreorderusa @MaxNordau There's nothing about this invasion that should lead you to think that Trump knows better.
It's obvious that he has some weird love for Israel that clouds his judgement.
Trump should be laser focused on immigration. Instead, he's fucking around in the Middle East.
English
@restoreorderusa @MaxNordau It’s this easy. I’ll do it right now.
I am not sure if this was a wise decision to strike Iran preemptively, but I think President Trump and his team probably know better than I do. I hope it is resolved soon.
English
@SovEconomy @restoreorderusa Like the power to control the Strait of Hormuz and there's nothing that the US can do to stop it.
Turns out that power also scares US leaders.
English
@restoreorderusa People are just moral babies and they don’t want to see an unrestrained superpower known as America. Power scares them.
English
@restoreorderusa And you can keep in mind that stupid wars for Israel directly takeaway from Trump being able to push for immigration legislation and bringing back manufacturing.
This war is retard, but more importantly, it dramatically hurts making progress in other areas.
English
@ClayTravis Um, maybe because he has nukes now and isn't negotiating a real estate deal.
English
Donald Trump has made hyperbolic comments as part of negotiation tactics for a full decade, especially on social media, and yet people still run around like insane people reacting to his posts on here. I truly don’t get it.
English
@weldonwilliford @chrismartenson Actually, he seems to be doing quite well.
English
@chrismartenson You compare antifa to millions oppressed under a fundamentalist Islamic regime? My God, listen to yourself!?! Stick with covid and financial news. Politics is definitely not your thing.
English
Wait until you find out there's no verifiable source for those "tens of thousands killed" and THEN discover that the US and Israel had been supplying the 'protesters' with guns. Question: If Iran had been supplying Antifa in the US with guns, who would you blame?
Casey@caseywickland
@chrismartenson I have a question. Trump told the regime he would not sit by and let them mass execute their people for protesting for freedom. Later he told them if they did he would hit them hard. That was what the free world should have been saying not just Trump. When they started killing tens of thousands of their own people do you not think someone if not Trump needed to act? If not would 100k extrajudicial murders by the regime get you to change your calculus? What do you think should have been done given negotiations failed and we already tried paying them off?
English
@CorbrayCrypto @NickJFuentes Did I miss the immigration legislation that requires an immigration moratorium?
English
@NickJFuentes its almost like he fixed the border
English
Trump’s threats to destroy Iranian Civilization for Israel almost make you forget that 10 years ago he was elected to build a border wall, repair our infrastructure, and end political corruption.
The MAGA movement was assimilated into the GOP and hijacked by Zionist Jews.
English
@willchamberlain @captive_dreamer Looking into history should be encouraged.
Treating WWII and, particularly, the Holocaust narrative as scripture that can't be challenged is suspicious at best.
The Boomers are passing and w/ them, the reverence for that chapter in history.

Guy who spends every waking hour ensuring that we get a nuanced picture of Adolf Hitler and the Holocaust:
English
@captive_dreamer Why shouldn't we get a nuanced look at Hitler and the Holocaust narrative?
What's wrong with looking into past events?
The WWII narrative has defined the West's morality for 80 years. Probably worthwhile to see if its correct.
English
It's gotten so crazy on here that even Joel Berry is posting gems
English
@mollusk56233 @Steve_Sailer Yes, he does.
Steve has been running cover on Epstein from the start. Granted, his way of trying distract/obfuscate is much cleverer than most. But he's still a gatekeeper.
Steve's always been a gatekeeper, though one w/ a good heart.
English
The Epstein Scandal is now reaching diminishing returns.
He turned out to be mostly a more ambitious Marty Supreme, a hustler whose Outer Boroughs Moxie amused some billionaires and scientists, disproportionately of the same ethnicity.
