They aren't selling oil at the moment anyway due to sanctions and the blockade, from the IRGC perspective they are getting free potshots
Perhaps unpopular opinion - @centcom should be punishing ballistic missiles that try to kill American sailors with strikes that DO kill IRGC commanders
No kidding! Israel and the United States just fought a war together, while the UK refused us basing rights. Our interests aren't identical but they seem quite a bit more aligned than they are between the US and UK
It's good to see that Rupert understands the correct line to take against Miliband's idiotic Israel sanctions even if many of Restore Britain's supporters do not
Honestly the Israelis should simply take that base from you. They’d make better use of it
On the latest episode of Counterweight, @rich_goldberg explains what's behind videos of Iranians waiting in extremely long lines for gasoline. In short: the regime subsidizes gasoline in a manner that it can't afford, so it's resorting to rationing. https://t.co/XJM7IhZv7r
It's interesting - just as things are looking solid, and the administration is clearly resolute in the face of Iranian shenanigans, the NYT gets first dibs on "intelligence reports" that say the administration is screwed and should capitulate
Hey @piersmorgan want to have me back on to talk about who controls the Strait of Hormuz?
Yeah, we won. Trusting the plan worked. The Straits are open. Iranians are out of gas and foreign exchange. Most they can do is fling a missile or two once a month. GGWP, the hawks were right
“I want to destroy Israel but I don’t hate Jews” is a lot like Jeffrey Dahmer saying “yeah I killed and consumed some black people but I didn’t do so for racist reasons”
I’m not sure why seeking to destroy a civilized country and condemn 9 million Jews to genocide and expulsion is more laudable because one wishes to see it happen for Marxist reasons rather than antisemitic ones
The Iranian economy is sprinting headfirst into a wall
If this decision holds, we will simply have to ban immigration from Muslim countries outright
This is hysterical. The idea that Fetterman - a Democrat - and @EylonALevy - an Israeli centrist - are “genocidal ghouls” that a normie Democrat should be embarrassed to be associated with is really something.
Is it just me or are people talking about Iran and Israel a lot less
I totally agree. American Muslims like Abdul need to pay reparations to the families of the victims of 9/11 and the soldiers who lost their lives in the war on terror
This might be the most insane thing Mehdi has ever said. Baghdadi took a captive American - Layla Mueller - as a sex slave. Of course Mehdi wants to trivialize that because Mehdi is an Islamist, not an American
For years I’ve said that @pressfreedom is a joke of an organization, refusing to speak up when right-wing journalists are silenced. But that’s not even the half of it - they’ve been standing up for the “journalistic” rights of literal Hamas terrorists https://t.co/70Lebp5ywP
You wonder how much of this has been going on throughout the Gulf. The IRGC is a one-trick pony. You get the sense that all the negotiation kabuki was the pro-America forces stalling for time until they felt their key infrastructure was sufficiently hardened
