Let me fix it for you @ArianeTabatabai & @jrezaian

"The debunking of Iran regime apologists/lobbyists... is truly damning & makes me want to cry."

"These Iran regime apologists/lobbyists parrot Tehran's talking points & provide the mullahs such priceless support... "
@ArianeTabatabai @jrezaian This short thread shows @ArianeTabatabai being debunked after criticizing the killing of Qassem Soleimani, the world's most notorious terrorist.
@ArianeTabatabai @jrezaian Here's @jrezaian rushing to the support of @ArianeTabatabai & @farnazfassihi, another known & disgraced Iran apologist.

Fassihi has published many NYT articles literally praising Soleimani who killed, wounded & displaced millions of people across the Middle East.
@ArianeTabatabai @jrezaian @farnazfassihi And while the likes of @farnazfassihi, @jrezaian & @ArianeTabatabai claim to be "reporters" & "journalists," listen to the remarks of a former Iranian intelligence minister about how Tehran uses "reporters" & "journalists" in the West.

 @SenSanders won the New Hampshire primary.
#Iran apologists/lobbyists support Sanders.
One individual is @hodakatebi, a regular at events held by Tehran’s DC-based lobby group @NIACouncil.
She also called for burning the U.S. flag after the killing of Qassem Soleimani.
@SenSanders @hodakatebi @NIACouncil 2)
Let me emphasize this again:

On Jan 3, @hodakatebi called for burning the American flag after U.S. President Donald Trump ordered the killing of Qassem Soleimani, the world’s most notorious terrorist who has killed, wounded & displaced millions of people in the Middle East.
@SenSanders @hodakatebi @NIACouncil 3)
Reminder:
Soleimani also has American blood on his hands.

“Qassem Soleimani, the Iranian military general who was killed in a U.S. airstrike in Iraq on Thursday, was responsible for the deaths of over 600 U.S. soldiers in Iraq.”

Feb 11 - Tehran, #Iran
Jomhouri (Republic) Avenue
While regime officials are claiming a "million man march" marking the 1979 revolution, video shows merely a few dozen people in the street.
#41YearsOfFailure
Feb 11 - #Iran
Images from Tehran, Sanandaj, Shahre Kord & Ramsar show Iranian people boycotting the regime's so-called "million man march" marking the 1979 revolution.
Locals say only IRGC members & administrative employees, both under orders, are attending.
#41YearsOfFailure
Feb 11 - Urmia, NW #Iran
Voice says not even a hundred people have gathered for today's pro-regime rally marking the 1979 revolution.
Iranians across the country are boycotting these events & posting on the ground videos/images showing the extremely low turnout.

Here's a thing that happens: "We tried your advice by not trying your advice except partly where we did what we want but gave it your labels and it didn't work and therefore you are wrong."
Now, if you've given that advice for many years, and followed it in your own endeavors, and you, your teams, and many others have succeeded with it, what are you to make of such a statement?
Well. Let's not hedge, the world has too much hedging, the truth is the first fifty times one experiences this one is likely to assume the statement-maker is some kind of fool.

"Doofuses gonna doofus."

"You can't come, TehTeh," Jeongguk tells him as he packs his little Cinnamoroll backpack, putting in the most vital essentials of survival.

Colouring pencils, his DS, spare pair of undies, three different kinds of lollipops and a plastic fork.

He's always prepared.
"Why not?" Taehyung squeaks, his own Pompompurin backpack hanging limp in his hand.

Jeongguk adds a pack of stickers, just in case. Never know when you're gonna need them.

He sighs, conflicted. This is tough.

He needs to be delicate about this. "They don't like you."

Okay.
"They don't like me?" Taehyung repeats. "Why not?"

"They think you're scarwy." Jeongguk sighs.

Taehyung processes that, looking down at himself. He looks at his sharp black claws and and tongues over his fangs.

Pft.

He /knows/ he looks cuddly.

NEOCON TARGET: VENEZUELA

Venezuela is the latest act of geopolitical vandalism by the USA. Post 9/11 hawks have ruled in Washington. Those favoring diplomatic means as effective in bringing the world together in peace were marginalized.

Neocons became preeminent & all-powerful.
NEOCON TARGET: VENEZUELA

Neoconservatives needed a catastrophic event to win power. They achieved this in the fear-driven aftermath of 9/11 where those with the most forceful voices were dominant.

But the Neocons didn't only want to attack terror, they wanted global hegemony.
NEOCON TARGET: VENEZUELA

Neocons are blunt & hardly hide their intentions. They sneer at nuance, diplomacy & compromise. They are the modern day equivalent of Nazis & see no need to obey any international law.

In their view the interests of the USA are of exclusive importance.

AU idea I've been toying with writing, kinda blurry on the details. Might take me a while to type it all out since I'm kind of preoccupied atm

NurseConnor gets hired by Hank because he needs extra help taking care of Cole.
Being Lieutenant and on the homicide division leaves him with unpredictable hours, and he feels bad having to call his neighbors at 2 or 4 in the morning if he gets called in, especially with Coles unpredictable condition and with the type of care he requires.
Cole is epileptic, has been since he was a baby, and Hank's ex-wife is less than helpful when it comes to helping her husband and caring for her son. Hank just wants someone to be with Cole when he can't, in case there's an emergency.

@StalinIsBack
1/8 My favorite #quote by #JosephStalin, which explains the scientific, #DialecticalMaterialist explanation of true freedom in material reality, not just as an abstract ideal. #StalinIsBack #StalinLives #JVStalin #Stalin #StalinQuote #StalinQuotes #Truth #MELS #MarxismLeninism
2/8 Having an #objective, #rational, #ScientificSocialist, #Dialectical, & #Materialist viewpoint allows us to accurately see & evaluate & analyze #Truth & #Reality as they truly materially exist in this universe.
3/8 An idealistic, dogmatic viewpoint, which capitalists have, however, makes one irrational enough to 'see' freedom where freedom stays trapped on a piece of paper while people are oppressed in their actual lived lives.
