I say this as somebody whose films are banned in Iran.
As somebody whose books are banned in Iran.
As somebody who would probably be arrested by the authorities if he stepped into Iran.

First we must have a country.
Then we can fight for its freedom.

It’s simple.

An absolutely priceless scene from a high-profile Iran war debate!

Two giants of geopolitical thought, Stephen Walt and John Mearsheimer, facing off against two unapologetic advocates of war, expansionism, and imperial dominance: Mike Pompeo and Victoria Nuland.

“The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly”, political edition! 🤭😂

The propaganda war is raging, and even mainstream analysts are now admitting that pro-Iran narratives are dominating large parts of the online battlefield.

“Checkmate in Iran.”

This op-ed is important because it comes from inside the American foreign policy establishment itself.

It is written by Robert Kagan, one of the leading architects of the neoconservative movement and a co-founder of the Project for the New American Century,

WHEN WAR LOGIC BECOMES COMEDY!

Remember what Marco Rubio said in the early days of the Iran War about why the U.S. “had” to join after Israel decided to attack Tehran?

Here, this Indian comedian tears that rationale apart in the most precise and devastating manner possible 🤭

A new and unsettling report by no other than the Washington Post on the extent of the damage inflicted on U.S. bases in the Gulf by Iranian strikes.

The myth of American invincibility is cracking.

Watch.

“The Iranians proved to be tough M F…ers!”

This is the reaction from MAGA influencers as the scale of Trump’s strategic failure starts to sink in.

“Unprecedented destruction”! What Iran has done to the US bases in the Middle East.

[H. M. Fazeli @Hossfazeli]

“Unprecedented destruction.” PART 1

That’s the word. Not from fringe voices. This is CNN talking.

Dozens of U.S. positions hit. Systems destroyed. Costs exploding.

Watch.

Once it ends, this war will be remembered as the biggest U.S. strategic defeat since Vietnam.

[H. M. Fazeli @Hossfazeli]

Wow! If there’s truth to this, we’re dealing with evil, medieval type!

My family in Iran, the part that is still left, complained for years about the dryness of the air and environment and the lack of rain, which was not the case when I was growing up there as a kid...

Shall we get into the numbers?

This is a report by Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS) on the volume of ammunition the US has so far burnt through in the Iran war. The scale is staggering.

It’s refreshing to see an American on the world stage act with sanity and empathy.

And no, Donald. AI, stupidity and a super inflated ego do not make you Jesus!
