  4. The #UK and #France are trying use their miliary to force their way into and out of #Iran's sea territory, namely the Straight of Hormuz. This can be viewed by the sovereign state of Iran as spying or an hostile act.

    They should instead use international arbitration to resolve the issue. Their reckless action has already raised international cargo and related insurance premiums significantly. A simpler solution is to stop #israel

  12. #Zionism is a European political concept, not a Judaic, religious or ethnic one. It was invented by Europeans FOR Europeans. That’s why it plays out in the so-called #middleast exactly how European #colonialism has played out on every continent: as violent taking.

  17. Imagine how successful you’d be if you didn’t have to clean up any mess you ever made. Not once, in your entire life. And then imagine you had nearly unlimited resources that entire time. Those conditions created the inadequate sophomoric octogenarian bloviating toddler that is #trump , and we continue to provide him with those conditions, like some clueless hero child despot version of us all can solve everything. Betting on hope.

    Adults? Please?
