The height of humility is that the one who has less than you should never feel that because you have more, you are better. And the one who has more than you, should realize (in your presence) that he is not better because he has more.

Yesterday the VP said Iran would be stupid to blow up the ceasefire over Lebanon

Well what does it say about the US that we're willing to blow up the global economy over Israel's desire to ethnically cleanse and annex half of Lebanon?

Now imagine if Putin had said about Ukraine what Trump is saying about Iran.

[Arnaud Bertrand @RnaudBertrand]

It's incredible that Trump would admit to this because the "Iran killed peaceful protesters" narrative was pretty much the only moral fig leaf the pro-war camp could still hide behind.

In effect he's confirming: "no, I assure you, my war is 100% indefensible. Zero moral basis whatsoever."

It's also yet another immensely depressing illustration of the extent to which we're still all manipulated by the media.

Which mainstream outlet, globally, questioned the "peaceful protesters" framing? The Iranian government kept saying this wasn't true, but which outlet even entertained the possibility they were telling the truth?

Not one, as far as I could see: this was universally dismissed as Iranian propaganda. As is sadly almost always the case, the media just ran the US State Department script: the Iranian "regime" is massacring innocent civilians for wanting "freedom". The ridiculously cartoonish narrative that women just want to show their hair and get killed for that...

Except we now have the President of the United States confirming that the protesters were in fact sent "a lot of guns," making them actual US-armed insurgents🤷

Hopefully it finally shames the media into doing the bare minimum, i.e. their actual job: treat Western government claims with the same skepticism they reflexively apply to official enemies. But I'm not holding my breath...

When you are destroying infrastructures, then the war was never about nuclear weapons, it was about greed, treachery, wickedness and covetousness. There is no God in any of these, just pure evil

[Simwal @Simwal]

Shame on you, Riley, if you still have any sense of shame. Less than two weeks ago, numerous people lost their lives in multiple bomb explosions in Maiduguri. Yet, you stayed silent, perhaps because most of the victims were Muslims.

Your efforts to destabilize Nigeria will not succeed. You are a group of heartless individuals who show no regard for human lives, despite claiming to be the most civilized. Instead, you spread hatred and sow division under the guise of democracy.

Biden, Blinken, Harris, and Sullivan should be facing war crimes charges, not writing books and doing the lecture circuit.

His entire presidency is about giving people permission to be their worst selves.

Another post before he deletes it, repost for the ignorants who think he is genuinely concerned about Christians in Nigeria.

The people you think are messiahs are the agents of chaos; they are only hoping on your foolishness to create division and destabilize our nation.
