A good analysis. The #fauxlamicrepublic of Iran doesn’t really NEED TO BE able to enforce it; they just have to be able to credibly raise the risk of passing through it enough that insurers won't cover it and shippers conclude that risk is too great.

AND it's a bargaining chip in the broader […]

#trumplies. The #fauxlamicrepublic of Iran lies. Fortunately, there are empirically recorded data. And once again, our #liarinchief amazingly manages to make THE IRANIAN GOVERNMENT look like A TRUTH-TELLER.

Bigly. 😅

It takes a lot to make the #fauxlamicrepublic of Iran look like the adults in the room....

Oh the indignity! 🤣 Evidently the #fauxlamicrepublic came so close to LIBERATING US from the fascists that #cadetbonespurs the #cowardlylyin' had to be smuggled out of Turkiye via a delivery truck and a secret plane (NOT the old Air Force One that we were led to believe).

(Or maybe […]

I started predicting a couple of weeks ago that #whiskeypete was gonna be the designated fall guy because the #fauxlamicrepublic isn't gonna let #agolfshitler out of this stupid war he started before the midterms--and Chancellor Shitler is gonna need somebody not him to blame […]

Man, the #fauxlamicrepublic is just NOT gonna let our #sundowningsuzerain outta this stupid war he started before the midterms, are they...? 😅

My prediction: the #fauxlamicrepublic of Iran will still exist long after #agolfshitler's #turdreich has ceased to.

In sha' Allah 😅

By extension, this would mean it's unfair for the #fauxlamicrepublic NOT TO HAVE NUKES, too, if other countries in the region #israelatwarcrimes have them....

In other words, the #fauxlamicrepublic just threw Hezbollah (and Lebanon) under the bus as THEIR ticket out of this war--since it should be fairly obvious that #israelatwarcrimes withdrawing from their #ethniccleansing campaign is no more likely to happen than Iran giving up its nuclear program […]

At THIS point, THIS voter (and career global & national security expert) would be willing to pay more for gas IF IT WENT TO SUPPORT DEVELOPMENT OF AN IRANIAN NUCLEAR WEAPONS CAPABILITY.

I'm no fan of the #fauxlamicrepublic. I grew up while […]

"Trump repeated that sentiment in comments to reporters, saying, 'We don't like a pope who says it's OK to have a nuclear weapon.'"

Oh, REALLY, President Pot...? 😅

Also, you DO know that there's only ONE illegal nuclear weapons state in the region--and that its NOT the #fauxlamicrepublic of […]

As much as I hate the prices I just paid at the gas station, im glad to see this fail. For all its flaws and crimes--and there are many!--the #fauxlamicrepublic of Iran is the victim of unprovoked armed aggression, illegal under the UN Charter, that by the aggressors' own admission existentially […]

Look, I'm no fan of the #fauxlamicrepublic--but they were THE VICTIM of unprovoked, unlawful attacks by #israelatwarcrimes and #agolfshitler's #turdreich, yet here's MSN dutifully carrying water for #genocidesbodyguards by making it sound like Iran was the aggressor, and linking the protests to […]

ʾInnā li-llāhi wa-ʾinnā ʾilayhi rājiʿūn.

May Allah accept him among the martyrs, replace him with a warrior no less ferocious in pursuit of #justiceforpalestine, and humiliate the oppressors. 🤲

There's a lot to criticize about the Houthis--as there is about the #fauxlamicrepublic in Iran--but […]
