Der Führer der "Green Party" (#Islamismus-nah) regt sich darüber auf, dass "#Palästina-Aktivisten ins Gefängnis müssen. Es sei "herzzerreissend". Fakt ist: Diese Aktivisten haben versucht eine Polizistin halb tot zu schlagen. Man hat ihr mit einer Eisenstange die Wirbelsäule gebrochen. Es sind mörderische Terroristen und diese gehören ins Gefängnis. Es gibt eine Bodycamaufnahme, die aber zu brutal ist. Man sieht sehr genau, wie einer der Palästina-Terroristen die Eisenstange nimmt und der Polizistin brutal die Wirbelsäule zertrümmert.

Thank you Tulsi for exposing their lies! It’s moments like this that should serve as a reminder why we worked so hard to win in 2024.

Even after last night’s briefing by a senior Trump administration official, it is difficult to ignore the major weaknesses in the emerging deal with Iran: • The agreement could unlock up to $200 billion in sanctions relief and Gulf investment, providing the regime with a massive economic lifeline at precisely the moment it is under pressure. • The deal appears to rely on the assumption that Iran will fundamentally change its behavior and stop sponsoring terrorism, despite decades of evidence to the contrary. • No clear enforcement mechanism has been presented to prevent covert funding of Hezbollah, the Houthis, Iraqi Shiite militias, and other Iranian proxies. • The ceasefire in Lebanon risks freezing the campaign against Hezbollah before its disarmament has been achieved. • Israel may retain the right to respond to attacks, but it remains unclear whether Hezbollah will be allowed to rebuild infrastructure, rearm, recruit, and restore its capabilities as long as it avoids direct fire. • There is a significant difference between the right to retaliate after an attack and the freedom to prevent military buildup before it becomes a threat. • Even the nuclear verification and inspection mechanisms are still not fully defined. • The administration’s own official placed the chances of success at only 75%, acknowledging the uncertainty inherent in dealing with Iran. • Iran could begin benefiting from economic normalization and international legitimacy long before any long-term behavioral change is proven.

Israel will not be bound by a potential Iran deal but must coordinate with the United States, a senior diplomatic source told Israel Hayom, saying Israel would still be able to defend itself if an agreement is reached. US President Donald Trump told Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that Iran’s nuclear program, missiles and Hezbollah must be addressed or there would be no deal, according to the source. If talks fail and Iran continues military activity, regime change in Iran could be considered in Washington, the source added.

Dichtung und Wahrheit. Wir sind gespannt auf den Text. Was bisher bekannt ist nur, dass @realDonaldTrump erpressbar ist und wohl nur in Orwellschen Sinne eine Niederlage einen Sieg nennt.
Trump on Truth Social: Barack Hussein Obama’s Deal with Iran, the JCPOA, was an easy, beautiful, smooth road to a Nuclear Weapon, which Iran would have had six years ago, and would have used long before now. My Agreement with Iran is the exact opposite, A WALL TO NO NUCLEAR WEAPON! In fact, they no longer want a Nuclear Weapon, nor will they have one, either through purchase, development, or any other form of procurement. The Deal is scheduled to get signed tomorrow, and immediately after it is signed, the Hormuz Strait is OPEN TO ALL. Our relationship with Iran is a much different and better one than previous Administrations have had. Unlike Obama’s Hundreds of Billions of Dollars in payments to them, including 1.7 Billion Dollars in green, cold cash, no money will exchange hands. At the appropriate time, when all is calm, we will go in and get the Nuclear Dust, buried deep under the powerful sunken granite mountains, thanks to our beautiful B-2 Bombers and their brilliant pilots, and downblend and destroy it, whether in Iran, or the United States. We look forward to working with Iran, and the entire Middle East, long into the future. Hopefully, this process will all work out quickly, easily, and smoothly. If it doesn’t, we have the ultimate alternative, hopefully never to be used again! Thank you for your attention to this matter!!!

“Not only is Iran not required to stop supporting proxies, it is reconnecting itself with Hezbollah terrorists through the agreement.“
🇮🇱 SENIOR ISRAELI OFFICIALS: U.S. AGREED TO IRAN’S MAIN CONDITIONS, ISRAEL’S KEY CONCERNS LEFT UNADDRESSED Senior Israeli officials say the emerging U.S.-Iran deal reflects acceptance of Tehran’s “main conditions,” warning that “the Iranians are not agreeing to this for nothing.” “This is the same framework as the agreement to end the war in Gaza,” one official said, questioning what leverage Washington will have if Iran fails to meet its commitments after a ceasefire. Officials also warned that “the uranium extraction has become uranium dilution and the missile system is not part of the agreement at all,” arguing that Israel’s core war objectives remain unaddressed. “Not only is Iran not required to stop supporting proxies, it is reconnecting itself with Hezbollah terrorists through the agreement,” an official added.

Netanyahu has decided to accept the Iranian deal. Security officials are despondent and see it as a disaster. Ynet brings some high level quotes from them: 1) A senior Israeli official said "Nobody is happy with this. We understand it is not good for us, and that it harms Israeli interests. What is troubling is that Israel cannot influence it. Its voice is not being heard." 2) The anger at Trump is palpable.: "Trump screwed us, we took the hit. We're no longer in the loop and can't really influence anything." 3) Israelis fear Iran will be economically revived: "They've blown money on the Iranians, who are getting everything they want. They'll build a missile corps, and we'll have to pour money into interceptors." Israel sees oil revenue flowing back into the exact capabilities the war was meant to degrade. 4) They don't believe a deal will adequately deal with the nuclear issue: "The real test of the deal is removing the uranium and destroying it. If that doesn't happen, the sense of a bad deal will turn into something more concrete." 5) They fear this will embolden Iran: "Iran has smelled that it can achieve things by force, and it will use that against its neighbors and against us." 6) The deepest worry is not military. It is perception. After months of direct fire, Iran is seen across the region as the side that took the pressure and did not fold: "the regional working assumption will be that it was signed under Iranian pressure and American capitulation, rather than the reverse." Israel is concerned that Iran will be stronger, the US will be weaker and that the future for it will be bleak in the region. This war has been a disaster for Israel.

It is nothing more than a tactical pause. If @realDonaldTrump loses interest in these negotiations, it will mark his greatest defeat. He has already betrayed the Iranian opposition to the mullahs.
The Institute for the Study of War (ISW) said on Saturday Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi’s account of a proposed memorandum of understanding largely matches reporting by IRGC-affiliated media, indicating growing consensus among Iranian leaders on negotiating red lines. The think tank added that Tehran appears to be structuring the MoU as a way to reduce US leverage in later nuclear talks, while portraying the agreement domestically as a tactical pause in the war rather than a final settlement.

120 Länder sind mehrheitlich christlich. 50 Länder sind mehrheitlich muslimisch. 7 Länder sind mehrheitlich buddhistisch. 2 Länder sind mehrheitlich hinduistisch. Wie nennt man es, wenn man den einzigen mehrheitlich jüdischen Staat abschaffen will?
Die JUSO Schweiz fordert in ihrem neuen Positionspapier die „Einstaatenlösung“ auf dem gesamten historischen Palästina: Rückkehrrecht für Millionen Flüchtlinge, Ende des „ethno-nationalistischen“ (jüdischen) Staates Israel, „komplette Dekolonialisierung“ und Umverteilung. Kein expliziter Gewaltaufruf – aber faktisch die politische und demografische Vernichtung Israels als jüdischer Staat. Die Zweistaatenlösung wird als „Scheinlösung“ abgelehnt. Klassische linke Israel-Abschaffungsrhetorik unter dem Deckmantel von „Gerechtigkeit“. juso.ch/de/positionspapiere/…

Must-read from Sam Harris in @australian on why he refuses to engage in most Israel debates: because too often they start from false assumption that Israel is the problem, while ignoring the ideology that glorifies October 7, martyrdom and the destruction of the Jewish state.

Die AntiDeutschland-Allianz #AfD #BSW findet zusammen - für russische Grossmachtsinteressen, gegen Europa und unter dem Beifall vieler Libertäre, die früher suggerierten, sie stünden für die #Freiheit. Trump-, Urban- und Musk-Fans haben nichts zu bieten außer Selbstzerstörung.

Dieser Aufruf zur Scham kommt jetzt ein wenig spät bei Nastić, die einen prorussischen serbischen Nationalisten und Reserveoffizier mit Verbindung zu Dugin und Identitären beschäftigte. Und es ist nicht so überraschend, dass so jemand bei den russischsten AfDlern willkommen wäre
