Now watch as Warren does nothing that stops it from happening.
She will SLAM the Republicans and rip their shirts for show. That’s the role for democrats fascism.
Things are looking up… for Iran.
I am not asking for much, I just want the US to lose to Iran even more decisively and quickly than it lost to Afghanistan, and for Tel Aviv to look like Rafah today.

oh! firefox translate doesn’t give me much of a meaningful translation, but it seems to be about north korea?
It is tricky to translate since it is not in Standard Arabic. It basically contrasts the sorry state of the Arab World at the mercy of the US with North Korea’s resilient and heroic opposition to the US. Here’s a translation:
If only I were North Korean,
Standing tall, my head held high.
Embarrassing that fool Bush,
Crushing his head beneath my sandals.
If only I were North Korean,
Never yielding, never wavering,
Never once showing cowardice,
Never bowing in humiliation or compromise.
My head as firm as the mountains.
If only I were North Korean,
Saying with a thunderous voice:
“We do not fear you, you deluded one.
Do whatever you wish —
You don’t know the men you’re facing.”
If only I were North Korean,
Never once in his life did he submit,
Never allowed his palace to be searched,
His hands and waist never trembled,
And he twisted the ropes with confidence.
If only I were North Korean,
Saying: “I have a reactor for you,
Producing thousands of bombs,
With range reaching all the way to New York,
You fool, son of fools.”
If only I were North Korean,
I’d burn you in the middle of your home —
You and everyone who joined your war.
Don’t think I’m Mubarak,
Nor am I Saddam in my foolishness.
If only I were North Korean,
The Arabs are a strong nation,
But their zeal betrayed them,
Ignorance slaughtered them,
And their foundation became people of foolishness.
If only I were North Korean,
If we had walked upon the path of Islam,
We would not have been defeated nor lost,
By God’s will we would have triumphed,
And gained honor and beauty.
If only I were North Korean…
Oh, North Korean…
well, north korea does not have oil afaik, so there’s no reason for the us to invade …
Good thing you clapped at Trump’s war speech you dumb fuck
Imagine giving standing applause to your political opponent for genociding millions for overthrowing the evil regime ™ only to be desperately less down when you find out that he’s gonna fuck it up as usual.
At this point it might be better if the US goes in without a plan as having one didn’t seem to work out the last 50+ military conflicts.
“Wow, are you going to give further details?”
“Then we might have to actually do something, so… no. But hey, elections are coming up! Maybe we can form a committee to look into it in the next ten to sixteen months if we win.”
Hey, friendly reminder that this bitch voted for Marco Rubio right along with everyone else in the Senate.
Please don’t use that sexist insult.

The story keeps changing because they don’t want to admit that this was done to touch off Armageddon, and bring on The Rapture. The soldiers were specifically told that by their commander. The reason is literally “because God told us to.”
At least 200 soldiers have filed formal complaints.
Do you have a source for that quote? I would like to send it to some people.
It’s not a controversial issue, or a conspiracy theory. It’s been well-documented:
their commander had “urged us to tell our troops that this was ‘all part of God’s divine plan’ and he specifically referenced numerous citations out of the Book of Revelation referring to Armageddon and the imminent return of Jesus Christ”.
“He said that ‘President Trump has been anointed by Jesus to light the signal fire in Iran to cause Armageddon and mark his return to Earth’”, the NCO added.
US troops were told war on Iran was ‘all part of God’s divine plan’, watchdog alleges
There’s a huge number of articles about it
Sen. Angus King, the independent from Maine, said it’s “very disturbing” that Trump took the U.S. to war because Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu wanted to bomb Iran. Past U.S. presidents, he said, “have consistently said, ‘No.’”
"Busy droning children, maybe later.”
Obama, probably
Actually that’s pretty much what we thought, but it’s good to get a second opinion from someone on the inside.
basically yeah
I am a simple man, I see Elizabeth Warren I post
ELI5 please?
I think it dates back to the 2020 primary campaign where she ran as a spoiler for the left. She rushed to be the first to declare candidacy, she tried to accuse Bernie Sanders* of defaming her and to cause a rift between her campaign and his, she stayed in the race when everyone else was dropping out, which was clearly a collusion to peel off voter share from Bernie while everyone else was endorsing Biden.
*Who then proceeded to not run in 2024, take a whole bunch of compromised positions especially on the first year of the Gaza extermination campaign, and do a few nothingburger “fighting oligarchy” rallies and tours that don’t even attempt to leverage any power.
There are plenty more examples of Warren being disingenuous and flimsy on progressive positions. On consumer protections and anti-monopoly stances she’s pretty good, but doesn’t amount to more than a machine politician outside of that.
If someone is going to be a successful progressive politician, they’d better take principled socialist stances, stick to them, and fight for them. Otherwise we just get an endless string of Obamas who defise radical movements, triangulate with the Republicans, and eventually their entire legacy is overturned by the next Republican administration.
This is how “ratchet politics” works.

I was under the impression that he declared war on brown people with no fucking plan whatsoever because he’s racist, under the false impression that being at war means he can stay in office no matter what (despite his entire life being filled with counterexamples), and him trying to distract from his close ties with and probable crimes as a child rapist.
I actually don’t know how it could be worse

Tbf it’s working for Netanyahu
And for Zelensky.
Liberals were scratched lol
Yeah, Zelensky banned opposition parties and suspended elections, justifying it with the war, so objectively the war is the only thing that keeps him in the office as his term is long gone.
Whether you like him or agree with his cause is irrelevant.
“You are right to be worried, the Trump administration has no plan in Iran,” Warren said
Ah, so it’s much better than I thought on one side.
Question is, how much of a plan does Iran have?Seems like they’ve been preparing for this for a long while.
I mean, how many empires have passed through Persia, through that area? How many conflicts has that civilization endured? I’m not trying to hype myself up but, like, Iranians are fighting in home turf with thousands of years of military knowledge of their own terrain, against a hegemon that’s mobilized from half way across the globe. They must have something up their sleevse
The hubris of the burger reich is truly astounding. They really think they can just waltz in and destroy a whole civilization that’s thousands of years old.
There’s been a massive bot campaign across social media to convince people that US and Israel are winning big time.
Anyone that can put 2 and 2 together knows it’s not true. But the propaganda is necessary, because that’s all the US has left.
Neoliberalism has hollowed out the US. It cannot keep up with economies not focused on maximizing profits.
Also, imagine, if Iran is doing this to the US, what would China do. They could probably destroy all of NATO in less than a month if they wanted.
I always think about the millennium challenge where the USA Armed forces came together to run a test, the USA’s military vs Iran, and Iran decimated the USA so much they had to stop the test, change the rules son the USA has to win, and then declared victory for the USA
This is amazing, thank you.

Funny, my mom told me about this years ago but didn’t mention that it was about Iraq or Iran.
You see boys and girls, if you want to take Putin out of the Kremlin and control all Soviet oilfields, this is how you do it. Start from Venezuela, then Iran, Russia will fall in less than one year seeing the effort NATO has already put in over the years to break up the Soviet Union. Then China will be the last one standing before we run over Shanghai.
