Iranian negotiators will stop exchanging messages with the U.S. through intermediaries, and Tehran will move to fully close the Strait of Hormuz, in retaliation for ongoing ceasefire violations, Iran’s state-affiliated news outlet Tasnim said Monday.

The report, in a translated post on the social media site Telegram, homes in on Israel’s military operations in Lebanon against the Iran-backed militia Hezbollah.

      Hot take, how about no.

      I would go even further and say that they have a right to build a fully functioning national nuclear power grid including the ability to refuse ne and enrich several different types of isotopes for a variety of reasons.

      I don’t love nuclear weapons, and we were on a global track to reduce them until we decided to give them to Israel and India while also demonstrating to the world that they are a required tool to protect you from invasion.

      Iraq, Afghanistan, Ukraine and now Iran have all been severely punished for not having nuclear weapons at their disposal while North Korea gets repeatedly rewarded through non intervention just for maintaining theirs.

        Does watching gays swinging from their cranes make you fantasize about what they would be able to do with a nuclear weapon?

              I dunno, does iran try to destabilize the world because they don’t want to arrest pedofiles ? May be Iran is a shit country but at least they are not actively trying to destroy the world. Is it the love for pedofile which make you attack iran ?

                Lol funny that you focus on that. Imagine bringing up pedophiles in the US to contrast with Iran

                Iran actually has mandatory state guidelines on how to physically perform your beloved pedophilia.

                  Funny that you focus on the pedofile part instead of the world be destroyed. Did you prepare a gotcha moment ?

                    Lol, even if you suddenly (and suspiciously conveniently) don’t care about their systemic child rape anymore, you’d have to be incredibly unaware of the game the Iranian regime is playing (both internally and globally) to think they’re making the world better
