PLEASE UNDERSTAND THE AMERICAN 🇺🇸 PUBLIC DOES NOT WANT WAR. Its leader DONT listen to us blame them and ELITES EVERYWHERE.

Britain caused this mess.

Then go to hell.

Says another hypocrite

@@eileensheeran4464 Ridiculous retort.

Agreed!

Totally correct

Iran is evil 😡 wake up

Iran's regime is main enemy of it's own people

Iran attacked 1st on oct7 using Palestinian terrorists

As a 8th Gen American Joe Biden is the most inept President we ever had.

Lol, why would Biden de-escalate?

Biden is hardly in charge, he’s simply going through the motions. There is a whole host of decision making which goes on behind him, it’s called the “shadow government” and it’s no conspiracy theory. The only great leader the US ever had was JFK, who simply upset the shadow government for calling out the Lodges. RIP JFK, taken from us so prematurely

Because he wants this war. Along with Israel

What about the heads of other countries. What have they done?

Big bullies fall hard when they will meet their match

That's because Iran is the master terrorist of the world and has been for decades, per the US State Dept.

ME didn't say anything about Syria, Yemen, The Taliban, Isis, Al-Qaeda etc. etc. Islamic colonialism/terrorism needs to be dismantled.

@@Chisel_ChestIslamic colonialism Hhhhhh😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

And Israel had the right to retaliate against rockets sent into its country by the paid proxies of Iran.

israel attack the building next to embassy, not the embassy itself. but why Israel attack the building?

@@cz287cj Because the top military terrorists from Iran were in that building. Like Suleimani.

What about people from religion of peace who do terror attacks all over the world🙄?

Aka israhell

Yeah Israel is a gand of rabid dogs at this point alright...

Explain who is the entire world and who is the gang?

Palestinians are losers. Poverty, squalor and dirt can be had anywhere. Why don't they move somewhere to some mud huts and call that Palestine?

😂😂😂😂

Name checks out.

The Israeli state has gone wrong...real wrong.

IF IRAN HAD ANY SELF RESPECT, THEY WOULD HAVE RETALIATED BY NOW

Come on guys Israel is being surrounded by Iranian proxies 😅

Israel provoking Iran, tell that to Hamaz hezebulla and houthi 😂😂

​@@joshuadpkIsrael attacked and destroyed an Iranian Consulate building with missiles on foreign soil ..

Yes he is. Iran provoked this by ordering their proxies to attack Israel on October 7. Iran plays stupid games, they win stupid prizes.

He's a Hamas apologist, pure and simple.

paid in dinars or riyals ?

@@TedATL1 H0l0C4ust apologist, pure and simple.

Yep. They've also exported most of the radicals out of the middle East and into Europe 😂😂.

People didn't know

Day after day they are grtting exposed by thier hypocrisy

The only double standard is from Iran. They attcked Israel via its puppets Hamas, Hezbullah and Houthis, and then pretend they are the victim wehn Israel hits them back

There's no such thing as rules. Winner takes all, that's it. The US is in an active plan to take over the world in a one world government.

Iran attacked 1st on oct7 using Palestinian terrorists

So does Israel.

Totally agree

​@@marilyn5208not by hitting other country's embassy. The U.S shouldn't allow Netanyahu to manipulate them

@@Matt-ou7tu Bedtime for Bonzo.

Great patience???? 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 uhmmmm ever read history books that go as far back as 1972 minimum? Iran - patient? Howwww when they are architects of taking hostages (1972) and stoaking wars. This so called historian is saying because Iran has not attacked directly (because to be attacked indirectly is better) they are good??? These people are forever waving the victim card. Miss me with that crap!

Iran doesn't want attack directly because it's proxies doing it. This so called professor doesn't even understand basic conflicts in ME. I mean he doesn't even know that creation of Hezbollah by Iran was part of their plan to wiping out Israel! It didn't had anything to Gaza or Palestine.Iran wants total annihilation of Israel , the supreme leader Of Iran says that every week.I don't believe this so called expert doesn't know these things.

Iran has been provoking Israel longer with their proxies

he is evil

yes because hamas started it

Yes Iran opposes Israel's 56 year occupation.

Shut up fooool

He needs to be dealt with. Along with his buddy Trump

Why did Iran establish agents in the region in the first place?

@@reemah5996 Iran never want to take direct conflict due to collapsed economy .. so they will use proxy war

So wise that they have been wallowing in poverty, hate and violence for the last 40 years. The only country in the world run by wacko priests. So wise.

It officially started in 1948 and Izrael is to blame

There will be no release of prisoners without an exchange between the two parties

Exactly. They make it sound as if Iran has nothing to do with this, and that Hamas is a party that one can negotiate with. I wonder if he’s really that naive?

@@aeg9394 Maybe if Izrael wouldn't coming genocide on Palestinians there would be no hamas.

Isreal should never be a thing in the first place , it’s the Palestinians land , and always will be

yep minding their own business just doesnt happen.

Why?

​@@AbdulQ.KhanCosmicTiger It's a terrorist state.

😂😂😂 he might be antisemitic 😅😅😅

@@haidarasmari He must be! He said something truthful about israel!

Nice try, hasbara bot

But tell us what he's said that's not true??

@@abyrahman6610 The terrorists from Lebanon attack Israel at first. Iran pays for the rockets. But Fawar Gerges says that Israel has been provoking. It is not true what he says. Israel is a democratic country and the people there include Israeli Arabs could vote for other government. Israel has a future. But Lebanon has no future with the terrorists. Lebanon is a failed state.

Izrael is the one who started this all. The state was created by terrorism. Its ruled by terrorists. It has been commiting terrorism throughout its existence.

😅 hostages are starving or under the rubble ask idf

İdd, and where are they ? Still alive ?

Fine. Let them fight it out. But the fact is Iran is scared to death to actually take on Israel. That's why they use idiot proxies as cannon fodder.

Then it happened.

Yes we wouldn't have earthquakes and hurricanes if Trump was in office

😅😂🤣🤣

Trump left the Iran nuclear deal, killed Suleimani in an illegal airstrike and pushed the Abraham accords which is total crap

people really chose WWIII on three different fronts over no mean tweets 😂😂

Israel is carrying out a Genocide in Gaza, enabled by the West ...the entire planet can quite clearly see this indisputable fact...except for a small group of people who either have no empathy or compassion or are just plain racist..or are in a Religious death cult....but most probably all three.

Isn't iran who was attacking Israel dumbass.

Who seems to be attacking civilians Destroying infrastructure Displacing 2 million people r ople from their land And constantly lying

Zionist who attack Falastinians since the end of WW2

Israel hasn’t stopped attacking Lebanon since Hezbollah forced Israelis out from southern Lebanon, Hezbollah only responds to Israeli attack’s & aggression. ….before October 7: Israel murdered four women travelling in a car in southern Lebanon to escalate tensions with Hezbollah.

Exactly

It doesn’t.. only Israel and Us keep saying that to attack Iran … in fact America supplies weapons to Israel to kill innocent people

Nothing goes in and out of Gaza’s blockade for 17 years so if that it’s true is by the blessing of Israel government #truthhurt

But the U.s. U.k .Germany can fund Sh!tsrahell and thats ok right ??

i respect good people religion doesnt make people more or less deserving in my opinion people need to stop splitting the world on religion, why not split it on good or bad people ?

@@vincentvangogh8092 So, religion doesn't make a difference? Read this ..... The Talmud teaches that wherever it is possible, a jew should kill Christians (they meant any non-Jew) and do so without mercy. "The life of a Goi (any non-jew) and all his physical powers belong to a Jew" (A. Rohl, Die Polem p. 20). Even non-Jews who read the Jews' Talmud are slated for death: "Rabbi Jochanan says: A Goi who pries into the law is guilty of death" Sanhedrin (59a). In Zohar (I, 25a) it says, “The people of the earth (non-jews) are idolaters, and it has been written about them: Let them be wiped off the face of the earth." These rabbinic writings are not isolated aberrations, but rather they are the definitive norm of jewish thought. The homicidal tendency is cultured bloodlust in a petri dish from cradle to grave.Jews are taught from childhood, the fundamental justifications for the taking of innocent life. Their deviant theology is clearly reflected in the immoral pathology of Talmudic exhortations that, 'thou shalt kill'. That's why there is no comparison to jewish law and God's Law of the Christian Bible when dealing with the subject of taking life. For example, murder committed by a Christian (or any non-jew) is punishable, whereas if a jew murders a Christian or any other non-jew, there is no death penalty (according to the Talmud). If a jew accidentally kills another jew when his intent was to kill a goi, he is not criminally liable (Sanhedrin 78b-79a).The American public has been inundated with jewish propaganda touting the brotherhood of jews and Christians. However, the following passages betray any such association: "The Jews are human beings, but the nations of the world are not human beings but beasts" Saba Mecia 114, 6; "It is permitted to kill a Jewish denunciator everywhere. It is permitted to kill him before he denounces" Schuichan Qruch, Choszen Hajpiszpat jog; "An orthodox Jew is not bound to observe principles of morality towards people of other tribes. He may act contrary to morality, if profitable to himself or to jews in general" Schalchan arach, Choszen Hasisxpat 348; "To communicate anything to a goy about our religious relations would be equal to the killing of all Jews, for if the goyim knew what we teach about them they would kill us openly" Libbre David 37; "It is the law to kill anyone who denies the Torah. The Christians belong to the denying ones of the Torah" Coschen Hamischpat 425 Hagah 425.5; "Christian birth rate must be diminished materially" Zohar (II 64b); "Jews are not to prevent the death of a Christian " Choschen Ham (425 5); "Do not save Christians in danger of death, (jews) instructed to let them die" Hilkkoth Akum (x,1); "Even the best of the Goim [Christian] should be killed" Abhodah Zarah (25b)T; "If a Jew kills a Christian he commits no sin" Sepher Or Israel 177b; "Extermination of Christians necessary" Zohar (11 43a); "[a jew is] Innocent of murder if intent was to kill a Christian' Makkoth (7b); "Christians who are not Jews enemies must also die" Iore Dea (158, 1).

Who is arming Hezbolla and Hamas?

No the vast majority of the Israeli population support the genocide in Gaza.....Israel has gone wrong...real wrong

Hamas only a exist because it's created by Israel

And the US supplied ISIS, Osama, and various other proxies, Syrian Rebels. Your point?

Iran support Hamas, Hezbullah and the Houthis. All are attacking Israel at the same time. When Israel hits Iran pack they still play the victim. Real psychopaths.

Yes, Shlomo. What a disappointment, right?

The Islamic Republic always gets others to do its dirty work.

The Russians won't die for the Mullahs🤣

Yeah! Thugs of the world unite.

@@rcgunner7086 that would be the usa.. where war is business. Educate yourself

No-one cates about the hostages, least of all Israel. That’s a red herring, they want a land grab and to eradicate or displace the Palestinians. Look at what’s happening inthe West Bank. And everything that happened int he past year -many Palestinian deaths and home thefts, settler attacks and no justice. this didn’t start on October 7th. The gaslighting and hypocrisy of the main state players is astonishing and everyone except the a bots see it.

Blah blah blah.... wake up!!!!

The ...U.S. Backing Sh!tsrahell against the palest!n!ans isnt also a pr0v0cat!on ?

Most journalists are left wing spokes people.

So what?!

I ran😂

Not true at all. Hamas, Hizbullah and Ansar Allah are all backed by Iran. But are completely independent. From Iran and each other. Their leadership does not sit by the phone and wait for any orders.....

Stuxnet, murdering scientists in Iran. Wonder who did all that? These are years and decades ago.

did Israel not provoke Palestine fore 75 years

No It was Israel murdering Iranians all the time and boasting about it Scientist , top generals ...

No. Nice try at the israeli spin though, playing the victim card does not work anymore, sorry. The world is onto the Israeli lies.

Yeah better listen to all the IDF spokespersons and warmonger military experts 😂

He is Lebanese American
