Jesus entered a synagogue and healed a man with a withered hand. The Pharisees came to watch. As the scripture reads, they were there to see whether he would heal on the Sabbath so that they might accuse Him.

You see, the Pharisees — the so-called and self-appointed elites of their time — were there to witness, to write everything down, and to report. But their hearts were hardened, even though they witnessed a literal miracle. It didn’t matter to them. They were only there to explain away the goodness in pursuit of their agenda. As the passage ends, the Pharisees went out and immediately held a council against him, plotting how they might destroy him.

Probably to clear the strait of Iranian mines, duh.

Yeah, right.

This is so sick.

I feel so badly for those proud Americans who signed up to fight to protect their country.

Here, they are protecting Israel. And they are protecting the billionaires including Trump who what to steal Iran's oil.

Iran poses no direct threat to the US. Our soldiers should not be sent to die in this undeclared war that's begun by Trump as a distraction from Epstein.

I have family in the military. They did NOT sign up for this.

What a bizarrely naive comment. They’re not “protecting Israel.” The US (and other countries) are trying to open the Strait so that oil can be supplied around the world. Why is the strait closed? Because Iran chose to lay its mines there. Take it up with Iran.

You’re naive. The US has been bombing and destroying Iran and Iran closed the strait to get the US to stop. Nothing was happening to the US to make US start killing Iranians. On the other side Israel has been destroying Beirut, pretending it’s about Hamas, but it’s not. It’s about taking their land. Don’t be gullible.

Is that why 40 countries have rebuked Iran for laying mines in the Strait and blocking ships, as well as demanding Iran open the Strait back up? Huh, interesting.

DP You just can not help yourself can you? The strait is open just have to make a deal with the Iranians and pay some money. Oh and there are no mines. Ships who have made deals go through the strait every day. If there were mines ships would be sinking. That is how mines work.

I love how you, a random troll, thinks you speak with more authority than you know, the people who actually know what's going on. Please educate yourself before opening your mouth and wasting everyone's time. Iran has left a path open to ships willing to pay a toll. The US Navy has a map of the mine-laden areas and are working to clear them because Iran is too incompetent to do it themselves.

You do not even understand how traffic works in the strait or how mine clearing operations work but you call troll? If there were mines it would take one to three months to remove them if no active measures were taken by Iran. The US does not even have mine sweeping ships in the region. The US has very limited capability deployed in the Middle East for mine sweeping and those ships are nowhere near the strait. So how are they mapping your mines?

Also the Iranian have underwater drones that act as mobile fields. They have a range of 600km and can stay out for 4-6 days. The Iranians have not mined the strait and the strait is now open. Tell us that is possible?

So if I am understanding correctly, we are worse off because a toll is charged where it wasn't previously and there are mines we have limited ability to remove?

What a complete cornball liar. As if he got exactly the right sermon at exactly the right time for his rant. Does he think anybody takes him seriously?

We need to be honest about what we are seeing here. The Iranian government is still the same theocratic dictatorship and the Iranian people are in desperate straits after the US promised them liberation. The Iranians still control the Strait of Hormuz, still maintain their right to collect tolls; iran still have their nuclear program and have Trump promising to return them $20 billion in frozen assets. The markets also have concluded that this is the end, Trump has thrown in the towel.

A massive strategic failure by the USA.

Crazy, Trump actually said no to his boss Netanyahu. Should we expect more Epstein files to be released soon?

[Anonymous]

Any MAGAs care to explain how things are better because from what I see, the Iran situation is worse after our attack. Trump claiming victory, nothing is improved, they are getting money from us, they control the Strait with tolls. Iran citizens still in a horrific dictatorship just as our interference in Afghanistan still left Taliban in control.

This is.... Embarrassing.

I don’t understand his tweets at all. Why are Iranian officials’ tweets less confusing? English is his first and only language.

Pharisees were Jews so this is an actual anti semtiic comment.

This is just lovely. The two lovelies are a circular firing squad (Christian Zionists and Jewish Zionists)

Seems to be a Christian crusader. Wonder if he has plans to take Jerusalem?

Ya think? Hegseth only has a giant crusader cross on his chest. The man wasn’t allowed to serve on basic security details when he was in the national guard because of all his questionable tattoos. Of course he sees his role as SecDef in messianic terms.

Face it, Obama secured a better deal with iran for a longer term, with more surety and significantly less money.

And still the GOP complains about the pallets of cash Obama theorhetically gave to Iran.

The is surprising.

The last time a president tried to reign in Israel war efforts was probably when they invaded Beirut and Reagan told them to stop their Holocaust of the Lebanese people.

He’s the last person who should be trying to bring in messianic times. His own mother hates him. she took his ex wife’s side in the divorce. When does a mother ever turn against her own son? She’s a Republican too so this is not political.

He says this all the time. It means nothing and neither Israel nor Iran take him seriously
