Still defending the sponsor of WORLD TERRORISM .
I worked with Iranians who bailed during the hostage crisis. They loved their country but absolutely hate their leadership that causes them so much harm.
You need to STFU .

Joker is either just an anti-Semite or an internet troll paid by the Iranian regime.
He probably didn't like this interruption of live Iranian TV. 🤣

I have found this to be true. I learned a lot from rooming with Iranian brothers from Shiraz in the 80s. They were cool, cooked great food like chefs, obeyed God's word to the letter, patriotic, had pride in themselves, exhibited first rate character as young men, knew basic right from wrong (a far cry from today's leftists), etc...I could go on and on. One thing's for sure - they hated the regime in Tehran but couldn't do anything about it.

Perhaps she was saying "please excuse this urgent message from Israel - you may now exit this way!"🤯

Winning Bigly!!!

Messages passed by Tehran through intermediaries seek a return to talks if the U.S. stays out of the fight. Reuters: Iran has appealed to Qatar, Saudi Arabia and Oman to contact Trump, so that he can pressure Israel to agree to an immediate ceasefire.
Winning Bigly!!!

@Thinkerbell He hasn't a clue. No idea Netanyahu and Trump slyly worked together to distract the Iranian tyrants enabling the attack completely unexpected.

@Thinkerbell Actually a simple job for Adrian Paul and his Highlander sword would work well on their necks. But I doubt he would take any powers because they're too brain dead to know the situation they're in.

Netanyahu and Trump hatched a Scheme
That made mullahs and their Team Scream
Quietly stacked the Game
Iran's now in Shame
'Tis a wild final nightmarish Dream!

CNN has reported, US intelligence shows Iran was "not actively pursuing a nuclear weapon."
But US intelligence assessments had reached a different conclusion – not only was Iran not actively pursuing a nuclear weapon, it was also up to three years away from being able to produce and deliver one to a target of its choosing, according to four people familiar with the assessment.
Another senior US official told CNN that Iran is “about as close as you can get before building (a nuclear weapon). If Iran wanted one, they have all the things they need.”

The times of Israel also cited CNN report so now the people of Israel knows Bibi is a liar.

Is that the same CNN that for years pooh-poohed Biden's perfectly obvious cognitive decline? 🤣 🤣 🤣
And in the article you linked, Jokester, one has to dig quite deep into it to find:
" US Central Command, responsible for American military operations in the Middle East, has conveyed a greater sense of urgency than the civilian intelligence community when it comes to Iran’s pursuit of a nuclear weapon.
In the lead-up to Israel’s latest attack, Central Command had endorsed a more dire timeline, believing Iran could obtain a usable nuclear weapon more quickly if it were to sprint towards that goal, according to a source familiar with the discussions."
But of course, one would never know that if one only read CNN's title to their piece:
Israel says Iran was racing toward a nuclear weapon. US intel says it was years away
So basically it was a hit piece against Netanyahu and Trump, using the same technique often used by the NY Times: head the story with a misleading title, and then mention contrary facts on page 53, if at all. 🙄 🙄 🙄

@Thinkerbell 13 years ago, Netanyahu: "Iran is weeks away from developing a Nuclear weapon."

Baloney.
That picture was of Netanyahu speaking before the U.N. 13 years ago, arguing against the nuclear deal with Iran (that the Mullahs would subsequently cheat on, time after time).
You can read the whole speech here:
https://www.americanrhetoric.com/speeches/benjaminnetanyahu2012unitednations.htm
And when Netanyahu refers to "weeks", it is NOT weeks away from the time of the speech, but "months or weeks" from whenever Iran completes the second stage of enrichment.
"What I've told you now is not based on secret information. It's not based on military intelligence. It's based on the public reports by the International Atomic Energy Agency. Anybody can read them. They're online. So if these are the facts -- if these are the facts, and they are, where should a red line be drawn?
A red line should be drawn right here: [picture]
Before, before Iran completes the second stage of nuclear enrichment necessary to make a bomb; before Iran gets to a point where it's a few months away or a few weeks away from amassing enough enriched uranium to make a nuclear weapon."
So this is merely another instance of some anti-Israel source not telling the whole truth, Jokester.
Too bad for you (and your phony source) that the whole truth can be looked up. Of course, you (and your phony source) count on people not doing that, but fortunately, not everyone is quite that dumb. 🤣 🤣 🤣
