"It seems to be entirely targeted; it wasn't an attack directed at the whole of Israel." @amanpour , try telling that to the hundreds of thousands of Israelis who were forced into bomb shelters or the 7-year-old girl critically injured by shrapnel to her head.

Reminder: Iran turned off the cameras monitoring its nuclear facilities 11 weeks ago, and at the time @rafaelmgrossi said that if they weren't turned on within 4 weeks it would deal a "fatal blow" to #ViennaTalks . And that isn't even the "IAEA safeguards issue" being discussed

3 weeks ago, Navid and I wrote that, barring decisive and tangible action from U.S., the Islamic Republic would execute more Iranians. Not nearly enough was done. We’re witnessing the continued failure of American/Western deterrence. Is there any will to even try to restore it?

The murderous Islamic Republic regime executed #Mohammad_Mehdi_Karami while he had been on a hunger strike, and #Mohammad_Hosseini simply for partaking in anti-regime protests. Had the world taken swift actions against 🇮🇷, Khamenei would not have dared to kill them.

More, targeted, and multilateral sanctions. Pressure European allies to fully cut off diplomatic ties. Speak out more forcefully, starting with @POTUS . If you refuse to credibly threaten hard power, gotta at least TRY using your soft power.

Plenty of people have condemned the racist frat bro, condemned the Iranians who showed up as a counter protest, but remained silent about the Iranian Jewish girl who was assaulted at UCLA. You’re exposing yourselves.

This is the first interview I’ve seen with the Jewish-Iranian student who was attacked at UCLA by the anti-Israel protestors. Most news organizations didn’t even cover the incident or dozens of others at UCLA.

Now the ball is in # Iran’s court. Israel is provoking Iran into reaction. Likely Iran bides its time and not let the story on Israel change from Gaza to Syria and Iran.

@slpnumber1 I don’t, and the picture I have doesn’t identify them while it does identify the restaurant, so I’m not sharing it. I have little doubt they will continue exposing themselves though, based on their complete denial at the idea that anything they said could be offensive.

Some comments on #MAHSAAct , as some people “on our side” seem to misunderstand the activism behind it. No, the legislation will not bring an end to the Islamic Republic regime. Yes, there are other bills and policies that also need advocacy and would accomplish more. Both

Interesting how the @CNN team who spent days hunting down a couple non-student counter protestors near UCLA, stalking them to interview them outside their homes, will have zero interest in the identity of these dangerous violent psychopaths.

Once again Jews are being attacked on the UCLA campus by Antisemitic thugs that are part of the protests. This time their target is the Chabad Rabbi. Once again the press is overwhelmingly ignoring it.

As we witness Iranians get detained in Qatar for holding up their flag, note that the Iranian wrestling team will be in the US in Iowa in a month for the Wrestling World Cup Expect to see Iranian Americans demonstrating how ppl protest in free countries.
