    Now if only Trump, Putin, and Netanyahu would follow his lead.

    • becomes martyr at the hands of people he's said were "the devil" for decades proving his point.
    • Inspires supporters to fight against the existential threat the enemy has proven themselves to be.

    It seems a very stupid thing for US-Israel to give them all the ammunition in their internal propaganda war.

    I mean, yeah, but also it depends on America's war aims. If the plan is to just blow him up and leave ala venezula I'm not sure trump cares.

    You mean distracting the masses from the Epstein files?

    I really think you guys need to wake up to the fact that they don't care about distracting from the Epstein files because they know they can't be held accountable whatsoever.

    The reality is every file could come out unredacted tomorrow and absolutely nothing would happen (maybe one or two major donors would get house arrest at best).

    They're not trying to distract from anything because it doesn't matter. No one will do anything.

    They are just furthering the US's economic and military goals by toppling unfriendly governments because they can. They don't care about optics, but they do care about whatever goals they have underlined for themselves.

    The most likely unsettling reality for most American progressives, I imagine, is that toppling Iran, establishing a friendly government and gaining military power in the region, benefits them as well, just like with Venezuela, but it is a dark reality for most of the rest of the world. Not because Iran's government was great, they were absolute shit, but because that means the US will just extort whoever they want whenever they want.

    Some Americans probably prefer to believe this is a distraction than to see how this ultimately does benefit their own country's immediate military interests at the expense of almost everybody else, not to mention setting an incredibly grim precedent for the future.

    Basically, I think people are being naive or deliberately playing dumb when they pretend they don't understand how this benefits the US military industrial complex, and instead think it's all a distraction. Yes, what benefits you guys actively harms other humans. That's the sad reality of geopolitics sometimes.

    Makes perfect sense if you dont really care about the iranians and just want to ensure continual conflict in the region so you can gain cheap resource access and can legitimize your authoritarian regime because your country is oh so threatened all the time.

    they're still just a useful punching bag, there's only so much they can do squirreled away digging oil from deserts in the middle of nowhere

    the funny part is, the West's enemies best avenue for attack/disruption (*especially the US) is a direct consequence of the mass propaganda they go out of their way to depoly against their own citizenry

    The leaders are not endager and everynthing iran does in retaliation only makes trump's supporters become every more violent. In Facebook they are outright calling for the mass murderer of Muslims within their own country.

    Of course Facebook does nothing to stem this.

    No, the domain works.. I had heard of the domain change which happened around the NSFW topics being segregated some years back. Then after the hacking a few months ago I wondered if the site got moved elsewhere but I guess it's all still there. Thanks

    Like they have been edited for this post? Or Is this a 4chan meme? The date does seem to say 1st March , 2026. Unless it's 26th March 2003 of course

    Other than the white house, has there been any confirmation he was killed?

    It just seems... Suspicious.

    Edit: IDK guys a few more of you could let me know if Iran confirmed it or not
