Marco Rubio is standing exactly in a piece of land that has been part of the Greater Iranshahr, (Iran-city) for centuries; the vast geography that was directly affected by Iranian-Islamic civilization, culture, language, architecture, rule of law and art. And his deranged boss dared to threaten to wipe out that civilization over a night. Americans are really ignorant.
Few places on Earth have historically played such an important role in global trade and commerce as Samarkand. It’s an honor to be here today — not just to remember the history, but the opportunities for the future.

🇮🇷 An oil tanker struck a naval mine south of the Strait of Hormuz on Monday, causing an explosion and fire in its engine room, according to Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) Navy. The IRGC claimed the vessel had switched off its navigation and positioning systems and was attempting to exit the strait through an unauthorized southern route.

“If Iran didn’t exist” Notice how easy the pro-Israel people, who scream about anyone questioning Israel’s ‘right’ to exist, happily and casually talk about disappearing entire countries - Rubio here on Israel, Trump the other day on Somalia.
Marco Rubio on Palestine: If there were no radical Shia clerics in Iran, if they didn't exist, if that wasn't there, none of these problems would exist. You may still have a Palestinian issue. I would argue that issue would be easier to deal with if Iran didn't exist.

For thousands of years city-states became mercantile capitals by enforcing trust - ‘Dictum Meum Pactum’ (My word is my bond) - but in 2026 ignoramuses ask why states care about treaties. Treaties matter because if they are not binding there is no security, can be no commerce.
Ironic that Trump chose Versailles to surrender

NEW: The hits just keep coming for Saudi Arabia. The Saudi-backed Yemeni government has now seen 58 killed and more than 200 injured after an Ansar Allah strike on the Shabwa training camp. It’s very hard to summarize this conflict as anything other than a total shitshow for MBS.
The death toll from a Houthi missile attack on a Yemeni government security forces training camp in Shabwa has risen to 58, with more than 200 injured and 14 missing, according to the provincial governor.

Three years ago today, an Israeli airstrike on St. Porphyrius Church in Gaza killed 18 Palestinian Christians, including children, who were sheltering there. May their memory be eternal. ✝️🇵🇸

The powers that be would rather you blame immigrants, especially muslim ones, for all your problems rather than expose them for their warmongering bootlicking. This is how they'll gaslight you back into supporting Israel.

🚨❗️🇺🇸 Glass is not just another man implicated in the killing of Hind Rajab. He is the man who most likely gave the order to open fire on the vehicle carrying Hind and members of her family, including other children. That Glass can roam the streets of the United States as though nothing has happened is intolerable. He must be brought to justice.
🇺🇸🚨 The #HindRajabFoundation has filed an urgent request with the U.S. Department of Justice, demanding the immediate investigation, arrest, and prosecution of Sean Glass, currently present in the United States. Glass commanded the Israeli unit implicated in Hind Rajab's murder. HRF's investigation places the 52nd Battalion—including Glass and his Vampire Empire Company—near her vehicle during the killing. Today, Glass walks free in the U.S. ➡️ More → bit.ly/4iv2Zio

The commander of the Israeli military unit likely responsible for killing 5-year-old Hind Rajab is currently in the U.S. As a party to the Genocide Convention and the Geneva Conventions, our government is obligated to arrest and investigate him for these war crimes and acts of genocide. I stand with @HindRFoundation in calling on the DOJ to follow the law and take action.

Three months since MbS decided to intervene in Yemen by bombing Sana'a airport. Result: - Saudi Oil tankers banned from Bab el Mandeb - Main Saudi airport (Riyadh) closed - Saudi-backed forces losing ground in Yemen - Several Oil installations damaged - Several global events cancelled *bearing in mind that things can still escalate further..
Clear footage of the moment Saudi Arabia carried out airstrikes on Sana'a Airport. High likely Air-Launched cruise missiles (ALCM) were fired from a safe distance.

In Iran, paramedics and Red Crescent staff are killed by Israeli-backed rioters. And the government is blamed! In France, medics are killed by police and the European Union is silent. That’s ridiculous.
⛔️This is France Macron today. An innocent unarmed medic got killed by the French police. He should be able to do his job without fearing for his life‼️ ⛔️Someone must answer for this immediately ‼️

MAJOR BREAKING: Ansar Allah (Houthis) announce multiple successful strikes on YANBU, as well as strikes on the King Khalid Airport in Riyadh that was initially set to reopen this morning, and the Shaybah Oil Field. Saudi Arabia is DEFENSELESS.

Well, if they had the bomb they would not have been attacked in the first place.
Its funny, I think you can actually make the argument that the Iran War shows that Iran doesn't need nuclear weapons. The exact thing Iran has been worried about for decades happened, and the regime survived.
