As much as I loathe Trump - this is absolutely, unequivocally the case.

Juxtaposition of videos of the left protesting today while Iranians celebrate, you can't make this shit up.

Can only hope more centrists abandon the party of mental illness, performative virtue and doom.

One of Trump's greatest legacies will be how he blew up a half-century of western diffidence, restraint, and failure on terrorism. As the era of Islamic terrorism began in the 1970s, western countries (very much including Israel) spun up all kinds of pseudo-sophisticated theories and excuses to avoid carrying out the only successful policy, which is killing terrorists -- as many as you can, whenever you can.

There are entire university departments, think tanks, media outlets, NGOs, foundations, and political parties devoted to promoting self-defeating, enervating fictions about terrorism designed to tie the hands of the West. We just have to live with it, deal with it, accommodate it, accept the barbarism. Terrorists have grievances. It's partly our fault, after all, because reasons. There are no military solutions. If we're nice to the terrorists they will actually help us stabilize the region. The tropes go on forever and they are invented by people who want the west to lose, and who would rather be wrong but appear sophisticated than be right and appear crude.

Trump wants our side to win. The winning approach to terrorism is very simple. Bomb them to smithereens. Kill them off. Decapitate the regimes. Sanction them until they have no more money for jihad. Trump gets it, because unlike so many people in politics, he doesn't care whether Harvard likes him.

Winning is going to generate a real peace dividend for America. Finally dealing with Iran -- the head of the snake -- will enable the US to step away from the Middle East. It will send a message to our adversaries that the big dog is still in charge. And very enjoyably, it will sweep aside decades of dumb elite groupthink about how we have no alternative but to cut deals with terrorists. Thank you President Trump.

@3PuttsAgain @NoContextHumans In the Thai army he's definitely getting laid. Whether the senior guy uses lube or not is another question.

@taylorplusyou Exercise, cook / eat and then either mix electronic music, play ARMA with the boys, read or watch something interesting on youtube. Occasionally I'll go socialize.

@Avabelly__ @avabelly__ a whole thread here with some thoughts. 💤

I speak from experience, having navigated this with a neighbor's barking dog.

[RA @ReviewWithRA]

@Avabelly__ kinds of agency over your own, to i clude your responses to his behavior.

Neuroplasticity is a wonderful thing. We are marvelously adaptable creatures.

I hope you can get some good rest. Good luck. 🙏🏻

@TrumpDailyPosts The division of our nation by 5th generation warfare (propaganda, psyops, etc.) according to the tactics laid out by Dugin in "Foundations of Geopolitics", affected by BRICS nations in an attempt to usurp American hegemony.

@europemaxxed Can we talk about that many shooters shooting for that long all missing the spine? 🙄

[RA @ReviewWithRA]

@0mNam0 @Megatron_ron @Mahesh10816 lol.

Xi needed Trump to come to China very badly just to maintain power.

All of these theatrics were for that domestic (party elite) audience.

There's no question about who runs shit geopolitically after Venezuela and Iran.

Ceasefires that keep terrorists breathing are surrender dressed as diplomacy. Israel is crushing Hezbollah in Lebanon. YES Perfect. When evil rises, you Do NOT PAUSE it you BREAK it. If Trump hesitates and America cannot do it, allow Israel to destroy the Islamic regime, which is holding the Strait of Hormuz hostage. The Middle East knows the number one threat is the Islamic regime in Iran and its tentacles in Lebanon, Yemen, and Iraq. FIRE MUST MEET FIRE.

[Brigitte Gabriel @ACTBrigitte]

I’m from Lebanon.

I know how these people operate and what motivates them.

Iran is never going to make a deal with the US.

And if they do make a deal, they will not honor it.

Iran’s determined to destroy us no matter, their ideology demands it.

We have to destroy them first.

@TrumpsWarCrimes @BriannaWu "I watched a season or two and am authortitatively arguing against your statements from my confidently-wrong void of knowledge".

Fascinating microcosm of modern political extremist (right or left) thought / discourse in America right here.

[Brianna Wu @BriannaWu]

Homeland is about an American Democrat brainwashed by an Islamist terrorist operating out of Syria who is opposed to America’s alliance with Israel and our joint strikes on Iran’s nuclear weapons program.

He tries to assassinate the vice president of the United States and the joint chiefs.

Today, the Democratic party is opposed to America’s alliance with Israel and our joint strikes on Iran’s nuclear weapons program.

How many of the people I work with would watch this today and think Nicholas Brody was a hero for trying to assassinate senior leaders of our government?

[Will Chamberlain @willchamberlain]

The Iranians opened up the Strait without getting the Americans to lift the naval blockade in return.
