Ted Cruz was asked how many people live in Iran. He didn’t know.
That should scare the hell out of every American.
Even Tucker Carlson, who normally agrees with Cruz on just about everything, had to stop and say: “How can you not know that?” Tucker tried to spell it out for him, slow and clear. He was basically begging Ted to understand why it matters.
And that’s the point. We are staring down the barrel of a potential war with a country Ted Cruz couldn’t even pass a fifth-grade quiz about. That level of ignorance in someone pushing for war should terrify every thinking person in this country.
How can you support going to war with a country when you don’t even know if it has 700,000 people or 90 million? That’s not a small oversight. That’s the difference between a short campaign and a generational bloodbath.
Iran isn’t Iraq. It isn’t Afghanistan. It’s a nation of over 90 million people with a real military, advanced drones, hardened militias, and tight alliances with Russia and China. And yes, they have missiles. Not just any missiles, but supersonic, long-range missiles that can hit every major American city.
We can’t stop them. These missiles fly too fast. If Iran fires, they land. New York. Washington. Dallas. Los Angeles. No warning. No defence. Just impact.
When the U.S. invaded Iraq, it took eight months of planning and over half a million troops. Iraq had around 35 to 40 million people. Even with all that, it was a disaster. Thousands of Americans dead. Trillions wasted.
Now they’re talking about war with Iran like it’s just another weekend mission. No preparation. No thought. Just tough talk from people who don’t understand what they’re provoking.
This won’t be a repeat of 2003. This could be the first war in generations where American cities are hit at home.
You will be remembered for helping to enable the Gaza Holocaust by repeating lies about beheadings and rape for many months, and for hiding the fact that Zionists murdered hundreds of their own citizens intentionally, blaming even those deaths on Hamas.
You’re a child-killer.
The world can move on without the United States.
100 years ago, the British Empire dominated global commerce, commanding more than 20% of the world’s wealth. Many believed its sun would never set.
200 years ago, France bestrode Europe’s stage, its armies feared, its culture envied. Napoleon declared himself immortal.
400 years ago, the Spanish crown reigned from Manila to Mexico, its treasure fleets groaning with silver and silk. The kings thought their glory would last eternal.
Each empire proclaimed itself indispensable. Each was ultimately eclipsed.
Power wanes, influence migrates, and legitimacy dies the moment it’s assumed rather than earned. Should America forfeit the world’s respect, it will discover what every fallen empire learned too late:
The world moves on. Always.
Question is: did Israel know @s_m_marandi was in the TV station conducting an interview with @piersmorgan when they bombed it? And if they did how did they know it?
Imagine, just imagine, the response from the West if the Iranian government, in international waters, had rammed and then boarded a European ship, filled with European citizens, and taken them captive.
But it's Israel, so it's all good. Our citizens don't matter.
Janikheel residents are protesting as 15 civilians (7 women, 8 children) were injured in a #Pakistan army drone strike. A woman & child were also killed in a mortar attack on May 6.
People are protesting outside the military base. No government official has visited them yet.
I assert this with absolute conviction, having consulted three authoritative figures from the U.S. State Department, Department of Defense, and Pentagon, who are closely monitoring the India-Pakistan conflict. Their unanimous assessment is that the current ceasefire represents a strategic pause by India, intended for restocking, regrouping, and reassessing targets, reflecting a shift in Indian military doctrine. When I proposed a 20-day timeline, they unanimously disagreed, estimating a shorter duration of approximately two weeks or less, and noted that India’s strategic targeting of Pakistan’s rear air force bases signals insecurity and an intent to exploit these vulnerabilities again.
They emphasized that Pakistan requires clear strategic foresight and well-defined objectives to navigate this crisis effectively. This pause, they caution, is a prelude to India’s calculated escalation, underscoring the need for Pakistan’s resolute preparedness.
Images of the IDFs airstrike hitting a camp for displaced Palestinians in Rafah are horrifying.
Images so terrible I won’t share them.
The world is failing the people of Gaza.
Canada is failing the people of Gaza.
We must do everything we can to stop this.
#CeasefireNOW
Not just @Meta . For months now they have been shadow banning posts on @facebook and @instagram . @X is doing the same despite @elonmusk pretending to protect free speech . All of these companies are distorting reality on behalf of Israel
You expelled them in 1948, you massacred them in 1956, you expelled them again in 1967-71. You occupied them in 1967. You tortured them in 1988-90. You imposed checkpoints in 1991 & lockdowns in 1994-98 & 2000-5 & siege in 2007 & mass slaughter in 2008-9, 2014 & genocide 2023-
