With Trump running Venezuela, how much oil money will be allocated to help the victims of the powerful earthquake? #Venezuela #earthquake

More than 20 others were injured in the attack, which came hours after the funeral of the head of Hamas’s armed wing.

There won't be a US-Iran peace deal as long as: - the US top negotiators are a bunch of amateurs - Trump keeps posting lies about any agreement on social media #iran

After the Venezuela operation, Trump was optimistic he could obtain a similar result in Iran. He was on a roll. Which begs the question, if the alleged F15 rescue mission was so successful, why did he agree to a cease-fire which favoured Iran? It makes more sense that the Isfahan mission,

Cease-fire agreement is only a few hours in force and Netanyahu is already rejecting a key condition: stop Lebanon assault. Let's hope that Trump starts handling Netanyahu the same way he has handled his NATO an European allies thusfar. #iran

Iran suddenly being able to shoot down at least 1 enemy airplane, possibly 2-3 more, appears to be a political move after Hegseth sacked 1-2 US generals who likely opposed a ground invasion. If so, Iran is signalling that such an invasion would be very stupid on behalf of Trump/Hegseth.

There's no military plan for Iran, let alone a strategically coherent one. It completely relies on 1) Trump's "feelings" and 2) GI Joe Hegseth's desire for wanton destruction. No planning, no thought about consequences, just incredibly stupid behavior with grave global consequences. #trump #iran

So true #trump

Even if the US successfully cuts of Iran's economical reliance on oil exports, oil prices would likely remain high. Not only because of the threat of the remnants of the Iranian regime but more importantly due to resistance groups in the region likely attacking allied oil facilities, ie in Saudi A.

Trump says he wants to take Iranian oil by taking over Kharg island. He must be unaware that oil comes from mainland Iran via underwater pipes. Iran can just close that pipeline and nothing flows to Kharg. #Iran #trump

The biggest risk to US troops in this war is not Iran, not the Houthis: it's Israel. Israel has its own objectives and has already struck targets the US avoided. When US boots eventually hit the ground, Israel is the biggest liability, not an asset nor an ally. #iran #Israel #trump

After the Venezuela operation, Team Trump thought they could deal a definitive blow to China by also cutting off its access to Iranian oil. But China is far less reliable on oil imports. Its economy works fine without it. And Trump's fuck-up re Iran means oil still flows to China. #iran #china

Trump and Netanyahu have totally different goals for Iran. Bibi now hints that 'boots on the ground" might be necessary. And he doesn't mean the IDF Daniel Levy breaks it down www.facebook.com/share/v/1E11... #iran #Trump #israel

So Trump says he did not know about Israel's attack on the Iranian gas plant. But White House officials say he did. And now Netanyahu says Israel acted alone. Is it perhaps possible that pro-Israel stooges within the White House betrayed their oath and acted solely on behalf of Israel? #iran

Never has there been so much strategic incoherence in the White House than now. This has created a competence gap which China could exploit. Arab allies, feeling betrayed by the US, could drop the petrodollar, thus undermining US economical dominance, while Trump is busy blaming Biden #iran #trump

PETRODOLLAR AT RISK? Imagine if China is able to offer Arab nations in the region more security, perhaps even accomplish a cease fire. They would have a great opportunity to get rid of the petrodollar in favour of their own currency. That would mean the end of the US empire, their ultimate goal.

So now Trump needs the warships of other countries to keep the Strait of Hormuz open? How's that gonna work when Israel frequently ignores (and lies to) its #1 ally? How are other nations gonna send their ships to the area when Israel poses a huge additional layer of uncertainty? #iran #trump

Trump says US may strike Iran’s Kharg Island oil export hub ‘just for fun’

Imagine the state of affairs when the regime of your enemy is now more trustworthy re the whole conflict than that of your own democratically elected president. #iran

That's it #illegalwar #Iran #allies

So is "Liberating" Cuba on the agenda in the coming months? Because Trump desperately needs a military win after Iran's monumental disaster. I am pretty sure Rubio will push the idea. It's closer to home, does not require the involvement of allies and Cuba has great real estate potential!

Worth viewing and understanding. #iran vt.tiktok.com/ZSuj77WXQ/

Some essential semiconductor parts for US Patriot missiles come from ..... China! And Trump initiated Operation Epic Failure on Iran with regional Patriot PAC-3 stockpiles dangerously low! ME allies, who did not chose this war but are nonetheless taking hits, are running out of Patriots. #iran

Ironically, US' allies in the region, utterly ignored in this whole recent conflict by the US in favour of Israel, now have a very good reason to halt oil- and LNG production thus increasing prices globally. That is the only way, it seems, for Trump to take their interests seriously. #iran

This is a monumental clusterfuck by the Trump regime. They relied way too much on Israeli "intel" who told them this would be over in 2-3 days. They thought they could repeat the Venezuelan success. They were misled by Israel by not realising how Iran would attack key US allies in the region.

Iran's Khamenei was 87 years old. Him dying (from whatever causes) surely was anticipated by the Iranian regime. Expecting Iranians to rise up now that Khamenei is dead, like Trump is doing now, is extremely disingenuous. #iran

Khamenei's death, now confirmed by Iran, is offset by the death of a 100 children in a US/Israeli missile strike on a school. One has to be extremely dumb to think that ordinary Iranians will ignore the 100 school children and rebel against their government. #iran

This is the 2nd time the US has attacked Iran during negotiations. Thusfar, Iran's response has been much harder and they are likely going all-in. And that is something Trump, already facing uncertain midterms, does not want nor need. But Bibi tricked him once again.

So how does one bomb a country into Regime Change? Just curious... #iran

Aljazeera reporting an explosion in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. #iran

It looks like they are all heading for Riyadh as UAE, Qatar and Bahrain airspace are now closed. The high-lighted Atlas Air 747 was already heading to Riyadh but had to alter its route. It looks like the other aircraft I posted about earlier, are diverting there too. #iran

A whole bunch of aircraft which had just departed Dubai have been circling in the area, unable to proceed to their destinations due to the ongoing war. It appears they are now all heading south but Aljazeera just announced the UAE closed its airspace. #iran

Perhaps Board of Peace´s Tony Blair can explain what Iran's "imminent threat" exactly consisted of. He has some experience in that field... #iran

During the past 60 years or so the US has repeatedly reminded the Rest of the World (ad nauseum) of the uniqueness of the US Constitution and how it protects their Democracy. Now it turns out it was all a load of BS. #maga #trump #fascism

Trump's Strategic Blunder US forces currently lack the capability to operate effectively in the Arctic. It relies heavily on the Arctic experience and specialised equipment of NATO allies such as Norway, Sweden, Finland and the UK. After last week, it is likely NATO will not exist for much longer

Trump is now threatening 200% tariffs on French wine and champagne in an effort to get Emanuel Macron to join his Peace Board. Delusional #trump #greenland #France #tariffs #madkinga

One thing Trump can do to pressure Europe on Greenland is to negate further military assistance to Ukraine. Though that would surely re-affirm he is more committed to Rusia's security than that of the US, I am afraid a lame GOP and non-existent Democratic Party would offer little to no opposition.

Trump has been more threatening to Greenland and NATO than he has been to Putin. #greenland #trump #NATO

To call Marco Rubio's appearance on the Sunday morning news shows an unmitigated disaster is too kind. The secretary of state has no fucking clue what's happening next in Venezuela. Like everything Trump does, it's all empty bombast with the hope that they'll figure it out later.

Now might be a good time to watch the 2003 documentary titled "The Revolution Will Not Be Televised". Made by Irish filmmakers who had rare, fly-on-the-wall access to Hugo Chavez during the 2002 coup attempt, it's a powerful reminder of how media, power, and reality can collide. Find it on YT.

Early morning at the farm #pampanga

Venezuela does not produce drugs. 87% of Colombian drugs goes through the Pacific, 8% through the Carribean off the Coast of Colombia and 5% through Venezuela, off which half is intercepted by Venezuelan authorities.

"Collective self-defense of other nations"? WTF? www.the-independent.com/news/world/a... #venezuela #trump #fascism

What's to get straight? Trump murdered 11 civilians from Venezuela in international waters. End👏🏾 Of👏🏾 Story👏🏾 Trump murdered them without so much as a warning.

A drugboat off the coast of Venezuela with a crew of 11 people? Makes no sense at all. Drug boats typically have a crew of max 3 because more people onboard = less capacity for drugs and less speed. So either they inflated the number of "terrorists killed" or this wasn't a drugboat.
