‼️ Prof. John Mearsheimer tells Chris Hedges that Trump's Iran War is the "greatest strategic blunder that the United States has ever made," and that "hardly anyone" could've imagined American bases being "so thoroughly destroyed." In May 2024, Glenn Greenwald argued EXACTLY this during his debate with Alan Dershowitz: "This would be THE WORST of all of those wars—because of how big Iran is, because of how sophisticated its military is." "If you thought Iraq was bad, think about what bombing Iran will entail."

🚨 "If Russia came to the U.S. and BOMBED three different nuclear facilities, would you consider that to be an ACT OF WAR?" Glenn Greenwald presses MAGA loyalist on Trump's war-making past. (ALSO: Casus belli doesn't mean "act of war." It is the reason or excuse for declaring war.)

‼️THIS FACT helps to explain why some of Washington's hawks are eager to interfere in Eastern Europe and Cuba: history is coming home to roost! TUCKER: "Jeffrey Goldberg, Victoria Nuland—these are American-born people. They're not from Soviet Moldova, or wherever." GLENN: "No, but their families are from there." "And so you don't have to come from a country. You know, I think one of the reasons why Marco Rubio is so eager to rule Cuba is because that was the lifelong dream of his parents!"

🚨 "Why do WE care so much about Israel?" Glenn Greenwald asks. "Because it is shaping and DOMINATING our foreign policy—and our country—in so many different ways." (1) "We're in the middle of a MAJOR WAR AGAINST IRAN," all for the benefit of Israel; (2) "We've spent the last two and a half years financing and diplomatically protecting one of the MOST CRIMINAL atrocities of my lifetime"; (3) "We have one interest group, AIPAC, that does not have the lives and interests of American citizens" at the core of its mission; It's not that Israel matters to the American people because they have some fixation or obsession with the Jewish State. It's that the political elite's "radical neglect" of Americans for the interests of a foreign country has become a proxy for many of their grievances.
