It could be a thousand sailors. Pakistan will never attack Iran.

أعلن وزير الخارجية الباكستاني مقتل ثلاثة مواطنين باكستانيين وإصابة آخر، إثر هجوم شنّته ميليشيا الحوثي التابعة للحرس الثوري الإيراني على سفينة تجارية في البحر الأحمر.

Honestly, I get it, I would be very upset myself. Anyone saying otherwise is a chode.

[Jake Tapper 🦅 @jaketapper]

So the USSS thought the threat against the president was strong enough to surreptitiously remove him from AF1.

And then proceeded to let the plane full of White House staffers and reporters take off and fly back to the US.

[Old Bean @OldBean82]

@Parmenides5BCE He just cost the Replubicans the house and senate in November. His not being “All In” and the Iranians knowing he won’t bother house down. He is a joke now.

[Old Bean @OldBean82]

Damn, @realDonaldTrump is going to lose it all in November. @SecRubio I pray you become president in 29.

[The Hormuz Letter @HormuzLetter]

BREAKING: Iran has flatly ruled out any future negotiations with the Trump administration, declaring it will wait out Trump's term until January 20, 2029, per an advisor to the Parliament Speaker Ghalibaf and a senior Iranian source.

"Trump will not reach an agreement with us. We will accompany him until his term ends," Majid Shakeri, advisor to Parliament Speaker Ghalibaf says.

Shakeri adds "the path to victory is neither fighting nor a deal, it is managing the process of neither war nor peace, up to the point of victory. Publicly confirming negotiations with the US is sheer folly. The winning approach is denial, ambiguity, and strategic patience."

Unless Trump accepts all of Iran's conditions in the US surrender document, the Strait of Hormuz stays closed until 2029. Those demands include $300 billion in compensation, more than $100 billion in frozen assets released, lifting all sanctions, US troop withdrawal from the entire region, and accepting transit fees on every ship.

@Parmenides5BCE Yes, you are right, but the Israelis have already told the Americans no on the Gaza removal of troops. The Israelis have already publicly stated they find need U.S. approval for strikes. Israel has 5 other countries they buy weapons from.

[Old Bean @OldBean82]

@Parmenides5BCE If you noticed, the Israelis have started backing away from needing American weaponry. The Israelis are realizing that Trump may be an ally. But he is not a true friend like Graham. One thing Trump loves in leverage. The Israelis know they need to be own their own.

[Old Bean @OldBean82]

Are we surprised by this, the @TheDemocrats have been taken over by extremists.

"This threat cannot be ignored because it is politically inconvenient.

A counterterrorism expert testified that the Muslim Brotherhood and the DSA are united by a shared hatred of America—and a revolutionary objective to overthrow the U.S. Constitution."

Iran is the worlds only superpower

[Old Bean @OldBean82]

I know it’s a joke. But with all things considered. I could see @VP doing this to make sure they don’t get nuclear weapons.

[Old Bean @OldBean82]

@Parmenides5BCE At some point the people will have to revolt with the projectory they are on.

[Old Bean @OldBean82]

@Parmenides5BCE I would assume yes, which what the internal struggle is about. I believe the political side is worried about the economy and the people. Where the IRGC wants to squeeze out as much as possible. But they killed over 50k of their own people.

[Old Bean @OldBean82]

@Parmenides5BCE Out last them, because in Trump mind. I’m not at least putting troops on the ground. All we got to do is wait it out. But the Iranians will keep making bigger demands. They need a war.

[Old Bean @OldBean82]

Im so disappointed in this whole situation. I’ve honestly been let down. I actually bought into what they sold me. I was a putz who believed in this guy. But instead we got an incompetent and impotent president. Just resign all of you. @VP @POTUS @SecRubio

[Old Bean @OldBean82]

They are still looking for their glasses.

[MoloMonitor 🇮🇹 @MoloWarMonitor]

Where are Turkey and Pakistan?🫣

[Old Bean @OldBean82]

But………..it wasn’t Iran, it was a………proxie. My hands are tied, I can’t attack, soooooooo sorry-Pakistan, Turkey.

[Old Bean @OldBean82]

I get why the Syrians are not putting all their eggs in one basket. Diversity might help them.

[Open Source Intel @Osint613]

Syria's Civil Aviation Authority has taken over the Hmeimim international airport in Latakia from Russia, saying work has begun to prepare it for flights.

The handover follows a Syria-Russia deal on the fate of Russian bases, under which civilian infrastructure passes to Damascus while military facilities become joint training centers.

[Old Bean @OldBean82]

You can try to tell us they are negotiating.But in the eye of the viewer. We look weak and ineffectual. We are a paper tiger like Russia. We are letting the loser set terms. Also can we stop leaking into the press. You guys look so disorganized. I supported all of you, not no lor

[Old Bean @OldBean82]

I know @JDVance @VP sometimes will answer tweets. What is the end game. You said yesterday, that they want a deal. But publicly for some reason we are telling everyone we are out of missiles. Is this a B.S. way yo get out of it. The longer you wait, the more they rebuild.

[The Wall Street Journal @WSJ]

Tehran’s new demands for major concessions come days after the White House had signaled a deal to clear commercial passage was within reach. https://t.co/0DE7VZtU3g
