Yeah, it's not an unconditional surrender if Iran doesn't say it themselves...🤡

Thats just in Iran . You used 170 billion to protect Israel and gave them another 50 billion the day before yesterday. Plus all the THAADS they took from Gulf Bases

Thank you for saying this omg. I feel crazy every time I see people who still defend Empire but denounce its current iteration as if its not just reaching its natural conclusion 😭 I pray the American people open their eyes one day to the terror they continue to perpetuate (and always have) globally.

The USA has been arming paramilitaries and inciting them to commit acts of violence to sow fear and confusion and instability in the Middle East for decades. This is definitionally terrorism and it is part of US strategy. Congrats, you fell for the imperialist propaganda.

Your framing here is precisely laying the ground for Patriot Act 2.0., what shameful ignorance. Get rid of this imperialist outlook. The USA's "counterterrorism apparatus" is itself a terrorism apparatus. Also, Iran cannot and will not strike the USA.

It's part and parcel of our color revolution playbook, from the Arab Spring to the Iran protests in December. In that case, CIA & Mossad assets took advantage of the unrest to k1ᒪᒪ police officers and commit other crimes.

A PENGUIN WITH THE WORDS: THE CHANCES OF THIS WAR BEING OVER QUICKLY EVAPORATED THE MOMENT THEY BOMBED A SCHOOL AND KILLED 165 GIRLS.

Imagine if that was an American school. Imagine if they were your daughters. Would you ever forgive and forget?

There are people in Iran that are going to take that quite personally. And the thing with the more dogmatic Islamic cultures the idea of Justice is not given over to the state as much. It is seen as a very personal thing. There will be those who feel the need to deliver justice themselves.

🇮🇷💥🇮🇱 No air defense visible in central Israel. Israeli channels report explosions.

Zionists: "We want the end times."

Zionists: "No, not like that!"

21/21 Remain entrenched in maximalism lose everything - left and right support in the next two presidential cycles. Or steer the communal machinery in a new direction, toward engaging with the full humanity of Palestinians, and moving Israel off the path of cyclical violence and endless occupation.

20/ This is one of those situations where the right thing to do is also the smart one. The alternative is actually straightforward: make space for dissenting voices, abandon the old paradigms, and start investing political resources in pushing for a negotiated end to West Bank occupation.

19/ The instinct among American Jewish institutionalists to respond to *any hint of criticism* by doubling down on their hardline positions - and demanding absolute fealty to a maximalist vision of Israel's future - will result in the inverse of their desired policy outcomes and further alienation.

18/ There's a straight line from that moment to last month, when the same maximalist, hubristic purism drove AIPAC spend over $2 million attacking longtime Israel supporter Tom Malinowski because he'd been flirted with conditions on aid. It backfired - the candidate more hostile to Israel won.

17/ In 2024, after Chuck Schumer took to the well of the Senate to say that Israel risked becoming a pariah and essentially called for Israeli voters to throw Netanyahu out of office, the Conference of Presidents of Major Jewish Orgs condemned his speech: "not a time for public criticisms"

16/ inside their hard-right movement - also see the long-term strategic value of hedging and opening the political space for Republicans to walk away from Israel.

*But here's the thing: too many American Jewish leaders don't see the trends, or refuse to grapple with them constructively.*

14/ As a mayoral candidate, Zohran Mamdani saw where the people were headed, which made him feel safe speaking honestly about what he has long thought of Israel. Rahm sees the same trends, which conversely are pushing him to change or at least reframe his long-held views if he is to realize...

13/ The rest of the country is moving fast in the other direction - developing an equally visceral revulsion to the Jewish state, freighted with feelings of anger, disgust, and moral outrage.

12/ The truth is that unless Democrats nominate and the country elects a centrist Jewish Gen X democrat (the options now are Josh Shapiro, JB Pritzker, or Rahm), Joe Biden will likely go down as the last American president who really feels connected to Israel at a gut level.

11/ And it would be a devastating, if predictable, mistake for American Jews with a connection to Israel's future to ignore this warning sign, this signal in the noise.

10/ Such arguments are dismissed out of hand by the Jewish establishment when someone like Beinart makes them. But Rahm - a realpolitik, archetypal Jewish centrist who seems to be angling for even more national prominence - can't credibly be ignored.

9/ Rahm's words echo the logic of arguments made by Jewish Israel critics like Peter Beinart, who have pointed over the years to the correlative studies showing that during IDF bombardment campaigns in Gaza, antisemitic violence surges worldwide.

8/ A close reader might point out that Emanuel isn't technically breaking that taboo because he still implicitly draws a distinction between anti-Israel behavior and antisemitic behavior. But establishment Jewish figures and organizations won't hear it that

7/ real accountability for the Israeli government's violations of international law from the Occupied Territories (for decades) to Gaza (these last two years).

6/ That's in part because irrational, conspiratorial hatred of Jews has lived and thrived and helped shape civilization since long before the advent of Zionism or the birth of the modern state. But the taboo also emerges out of a strategic interest; it's a political tool for blocking any...

5/ One reason Rahm's turn is so significant is that it shatters a long-held taboo in American politics and in the Jewish community against attributing any rise in antisemitic behavior (discrimination, violence, etc.) to the actions of the Jewish state.
