I swear, he puts that "Thank you for you attention to this matter" in there just to piss me off.

And thank God he put the all caps 'signature' at the end, or we'd never know who it was from. Utter nincompoop.

Wtf kind of tweet shit is this? Is this a president speaking? Someone please relieve this thing of duty.

He's admitting American systems wouldn't have been able to detect and intercept the missiles had Iran not tweeted about it? Fucking 4th grade level elitism here

All hail the king

My understanding is that Iran gave several states, including the US and Qatar, advance warning of their attack. Iran expected that none of their missiles would hit their targets.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago

What was the point, then?

[–] [email protected] 15 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (3 children)

You would be correct. Its kinda weird and honestly annoying that Iran keeps taking the high road in its conflicts with imperialists. They are just going to keep getting stepped on.

[–] [email protected] -1 points 3 days ago

Iran really does not have a choice. They can not seriously attack Israel. Their missile launchers seem to be destroyed and they hit very little. Air force is not an option either. Hamaz is at war already, Hezbollah has been bombed hard and can hardly fight, much less supplied.

They could bomb some US military installations, but best case they kill some Americans.

Blocking the Persian Golf would fail as well and piss of pretty much the rest of the world.

So ending it is a good option.

I mean, Iran wants this to end as soon as possible probably. Their air defenses are decimated and they don't have enough missiles to really accomplish anything important.

This is going the end the Hezbollah way. Iran took massive losses in their leadership. If they tap out now that Israel is out of interceptors they will go down in the future when Israel keeps doing this again and again.

I agree, although Hezbollah was not as wary of retaliation as Iran has proven to be. I’ve made plenty of arguments in favor of their skittishness but I simply don’t understand anymore.

The only thing I can think of is whether they’re changed their stance on nukes, and use this time to build them.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 3 days ago

Nowadays, to me, it’s a coin flip whether a tweet is fake or real. That’s not something I would’ve expected 5 years ago.

Why did he start signing his truths with thank you for your attention to this matter?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 days ago

Probably trying to be all official and presidential and stuff.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 3 days ago (2 children)

Shortly before he started signing his name after that.

It's crazy to me how he's been on Twitter for decades but is somehow regressing to more geriatric patterns. This is what I'd expect an 80 year old to do when first joining Twitter.

But this motherfucker has been tweeting for years. WHY NOW?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 3 days ago

I got a dollar that says he's signing off more formally to cement privatized social media as official communication channels. Remember when he got hammered for blurring the lines between POTUS and Dunald J Duck accounts?

Today I woke up and my penis was inside of a double quarter pounder with cheese.

It was warmer and felt much nicer than Melania.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 days ago

My freezer is warmer than melania

Trump is a complete piece of shit.
