Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That's all the rules!

The general rule of transparency is to make you look good and strong, not like a feeble-minded limp dick.

Oh wait, do you mean he is finally starting to realize Israel is (In this case) the bad guy in the dispute?

PS Yes, yes, yes, I know, Iran isn't "the good guy" in most respects, I mean in the case of this war.

No, Russia just called and said “Iran is cancelling our drone deliveries. Make Israel stop or we release the tape”

There is a difference between demanding respect and commanding respect

[–] hddsx@lemmy.ca 14 points 1 day ago (3 children)

Wouldn’t it be more useful and/or timely to call them directly instead of posting on social media?

Trump believes he, as leader of America, speaks for all 201 countries that aren't directly part of the war between Israel and Iran, quote: "upon the 24th Hour, an Official END to THE 12 DAY WAR will be saluted by the World." VP Vance claims he knows more about Iran's current nuclear situation than anyone else, quote: "Iran is incapable of building a nuclear weapon with the equipment they have because we destroyed it."

I cannot stress enough that I want the US government to fuck off and never interfere with other countries' matters that don't concern them, and to stop acting as the world police. The US is somehow becoming more delusional.
