Beyond shameful! Next time the German government lectures ANYONE about human rights, remember that in Germany, you get arrested if you peacefully hold up pictures of starving Palestinian children. This video is from Berlin.
Perhaps the most important thing @joekent16jan19 told @TuckerCarlson is that the deal to end the war will necessitate some sanctions relief for Tehran - and that it lies in the US's economic interest to lift sanctions:
Two weeks into the war, Iran is still shooting missiles that Israeli air defenses fail to bring down. This footage from NBC last night shows an Iranian missile apparently dodging two Israeli interceptors and then hitting Tel Aviv with a massive explosion.
If you watch these militant Pahlavi supporters, marching as an army in a manner reminiscent of Hitler's brown shirts, and you have the audacity to doubt their ironclad commitment to democracy and freedom, you must be a supporter of the Islamic Republic. Clearly. (sarcasm)
Spoke to @owenjonesjourno about how Trump has already lost control over the war and that increasingly desperate measures are being considered as a result. In comparison, the Iraq war plan didn't go off the rails until August 2003.
An entirely new security equation will be needed after this war. Won't be easy. GCC dependency on the US is partly why they're in this dire situation. Finding a new relationship with Iran will be difficult, given Iran's attacks. But there is no other way: geography is permanent.
Told @BeckyCNN that I am baffled by the narrative that fractures within the Iranian leadership are the obstacle to a deal, rather than Trump's erratic behavior, change of goal posts, and maximalist demands...
Young Palestinian children are prevented from going to school after Israeli settlers - with the tacit approval of the Israeli state - blocked their path with a barbed-wire fence. Instead, they are forced to sit in the boiling heat to continue their education.
Israel's goal is to destroy Iran's industrial base and set the country back decades to ensure that Tehran cannot pose a challenge to Israel's hegemonic designs for years to come - regardless of the cost to the global economy, regional stability, or Trump's presidency...
Told @NewsNation that Trump always uses social media to mock his counterparts, as an effort to create the optics of dominance. But it's one thing to do trash talk in a negotiation, completely different when the US is in an actual war and diplomacy is needed to end that war...

RANDOM BULLETS is a psychological thriller with a paranormal twist. “Perfect pace, elegance, and empathy.” “Intriguing read.” “A hidden gem.” “A real ride.” The audiobook is on Audible, Amazon, and iTunes. My 24 Kindles (free with KU), paperbacks, and audiobooks are on Amazon. amzn.to/2LIpe2b

I’ll keep it simple. Everyone with ties to Epstein must testify. The survivors and the American people deserve a serious investigation. I urge Chair Comer to pursue integrity, not partisan theatrics.
