@POTUS Do You Know that :
Decision No. 131 of 9 July 2004 of the International Court of Justice in The Hague that "Israel, as an occupying Power, shall not be entitled to invoke the right of self-defence set forth in Article 51 of the Charter of the United Nations."
🇻🇪🇺🇸 TIME cover story exposes how Washington effectively runs Venezuela through acting president Delcy Rodríguez, a former Chavista loyalist turned Trump/Rubio proxy.
TIME's Eric Cortellessa sat down with Rodríguez, who took power after a US Delta Force raid kidnapped Nicolás Maduro from his residence in January and flew him to New York to face "drug charges." He's now sitting in a federal jail while Rodríguez, his former vice president, runs the country under what former US ambassador James Story bluntly calls "the Rodrígato": a government that stays in power while carrying out Washington's orders.
The arrangement, per the report: Secretary of State Marco Rubio personally oversees Venezuela's oil revenue and public finances through what amounts to a US-controlled escrow account. Washington collects most of Venezuela's oil export proceeds and releases funds back only as Caracas meets conditions set by the State Department. Rodríguez even consults Rubio on domestic appointments, including her Defense Minister. The two are reportedly in near-daily contact by phone and WhatsApp.
In exchange, Rodríguez gets to keep her seat, American oil majors (ExxonMobil, ConocoPhillips, Halliburton) get back into Venezuela's energy sector, and Washington gets a foothold it's wanted for decades.
Notably, Rodríguez tells TIME elections will happen only "when it is ready," and dodges repeatedly on whether opposition leader María Corina Machado would ever be allowed to run.
Marco Rubio suggests Ukrainian long range strikes inside Russia are "Bringing the War to the Russian people"
And that might end the War?
By his logic, I presume if Iran starts striking Amazon warehouses and Oil refineries in Texas, the US will end their bombing of Tehran?
Speaking to Al Mayadeen, Professor Mohammad Marandi warned that the United States will have committed a catastrophic miscalculation if it carries out its threats.
Emphasizing that the conflict has reached its most critical phase, he stated that if Trump proceeds with his threat, there will be no turning back for Iran, which will respond decisively and strike with full force.
Furthermore, Marandi issued a warning, advising citizens in the Gulf to leave in the event that the US executes its threats to target Iranian energy facilities.

Marandi: “Your regime is aiding the US in carpet bombing our country. And as it does you make false accusations against Iran to legitimize the aggression against us & that makes you complicit in war crimes.”
UK reporter: “Me personally?”
Marandi: “Yes you’re a propagandist.” 🔥
Imagine being this policewoman and telling someone, earnestly, that using a microphone is an act of terrorism. All in the service of #TheLobbyIsReal The @metpoliceuk do not serve with our consent. And every single officer involved in this farce, is PERSONALLY defending genocide.
"I have to tell you that the real problem, um, are Jews" -- Alan Dershowitz in a surprising statement, on what he calls "idiot Jews."
And the scourge of anti-Semitism continues:
Every time I watch an interview with professor Marandi, I sit back, put my feet up, and enjoy the show while he slays one "journalist" after another! I so enjoy the look on his face as he does that too!
MARANDI DESTROYS PIERS MORGAN:
"Your problem with Iran is that we are independent and reject your ruling Epstein class that rapes and murders ordinary people. We will NOT allow your regime to kill our kids and get away with it."

📈 Iranian Armed Forces Spokesperson, Brigadier General Akraminia:
"We made the most of the agreement and the ceasefire, utilizing every moment. During this period, the import of new equipment, the repair and reconstruction of damaged systems, and the production of new systems were prioritized. The new drones that we have recently used are also a result of taking advantage of the opportunities created during the ceasefire."
And yet, this is not a gas explosion, but an act of terrorism.
Key statements from the National Anti-Terrorism Committee Information Center regarding the explosion at the restaurant on Kudrinskaya Square in Moscow:
▪️An improvised explosive device detonated in the restaurant;
▪️A woman attempted to smuggle a bomb and died;
▪️One of the three dead was a security guard who prevented the woman carrying the explosive device from entering the restaurant;
▪️The third dead person was a restaurant patron;
▪️The explosion injured 21 people.
Thanks to the security guard who stopped the woman carrying the IED at the entrance to the restaurant, numerous casualties in Moscow were avoided, Alpha Group veteran Sergei Goncharov told TASS:
"It must be said that those who survived should be grateful to the security guard, our citizen, who fulfilled his duties and checked the box."
Damn! This Professor Marandi exchange was fire and exactly what is needed! No one is afraid of you Zionist Jews! @s_m_marandi did not pull any punches on Epstein lawyer!
TACO, RE-EXPLAINED
POTUS vociferations are LIES.
Iran never asked for a break.
This is what really happened:
- Iranian retaliation against Gulf energy and water infrastructure would be mega-devastating.
- Saudi Arabia and GCC refused to absorb the consequences of escalation. MbS personally asked Trump to back off.
- Iran's control of the Strait of Hormuz would not be affected.
- Global energy shock before Monday’s market opening would be inevitable.
- The TOTAL vulnerability of U.S. bases in West Asia.
POTUS: Liar-in-Chief.
TACO: reality.
