Apple Maps has removed almost every town in Lebanon from the map while keeping every podunk town in Israel and Syria clearly marked.

Iran's Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi:

In intensive talks at highest level in 47 years, Iran engaged with U.S in good faith to end war.

But when just inches away from "Islamabad MoU", we encountered maximalism, shifting goalposts, and blockade.

Zero lessons earned.

And, oil prices up again.

BREAKING: CENTCOM says the U.S. will begin a naval blockade of all ships entering or leaving Iranian ports on April 13 at 10 a.m. ET.

This is the result of Hezbullah's main mode of attacks this war with concentrating rocket fire not Israel but on Israeli forces in Lebanon where they are known where and have no AD

They mentioned two but give it a few days and you will hear that Israeli casualties are closer to 800 now.

Last time it suddenly jumped to 500 when they were barely reporting a injury or two every other time

However it stays painful for us that there are no Israeli army deaths (at least being reported for those who think Israel hides deaths)

‘To avoid destabilizing the region’

Yeah buddy I got news for you…

Didn't report what the Lebanese PM said today because I didn't bother read it.

He is a nobody that isn't worth the dirt on a shoe used to walk inside sewage

🇺🇸 JD Vance says the goal is getting Iran to commit to not build a nuclear weapon.

It already made that commitment in 2015 under the JCPOA—a deal Trump tore up.

Now this admin has dragged the country into a pointless war to recover ground it gave away—and American families are paying the price.

~40,000 housing units destroyed or heavily damaged in just 35 days — ≈16% of total war damage since Oct 2023.
Most affected: Southern Beirut Suburbs, Nabatieh, Bint Jbeil, Sour.

Trump is insulting the Pope

A low even lower than this Jewish slave can be

📢 🇺🇸 🇻🇦 Trump lashes out at the Pope tonight, calling him "WEAK on Crime, and terrible for Foreign Policy."

Pope Leo is WEAK on Crime, and terrible for Foreign Policy. He talks about “fear” of the Trump Administration, but doesn’t mention the FEAR that the Catholic Church, and all other Christian Organizations, had during COVID when they were arresting priests, ministers, and everybody else, for holding Church Services, even when going outside, and being ten and even twenty feet apart. I like his brother Louis much better than I like him, because Louis is all MAGA. He gets it, and Leo doesn’t! I don’t want a Pope who thinks it’s OK for Iran to have a Nuclear Weapon. I don’t want a Pope who thinks it’s terrible that America attacked Venezuela, a Country that was sending massive amounts of Drugs into the United States and, even worse, emptying their prisons, including murderers, drug dealers, and killers, into our Country. And I don’t want a Pope who criticizes the President of the United States because I’m doing exactly what I was elected, IN A LANDSLIDE, to do, setting Record Low Numbers in Crime, and creating the Greatest Stock Market in History. Leo should be thankful because, as everyone knows, he was a shocking surprise. He wasn’t on any list to be Pope, and was only put there by the Church because he was an American, and they thought that would be the best way to deal with President Donald J. Trump. If I wasn’t in the White House, Leo wouldn’t be in the Vatican. Unfortunately, Leo’s Weak on Crime, Weak on Nuclear Weapons, does not sit well with me, nor does the fact that he meets with Obama Sympathizers like David Axelrod, a LOSER from the Left, who is one of those who wanted churchgoers and clerics to be arrested. Leo should get his act together as Pope, use Common Sense, stop catering to the Radical Left, and focus on being a Great Pope, not a Politician. It’s hurting him very badly and, more importantly, it’s hurting the Catholic Church! President DONALD J. TRUMP

Me and my friends be like:

— I’m not a Christian. Nor am I particularly fond of Pope Leo XIV. In fact, quite the opposite.

But, whether you like it or not, the Pope represents the religion of 1.4 billion Catholics worldwide.

And, in a general sense, the Pope as an institution has always been an advocate for peace around the world, whether we agree with their specific statements or not (as Muslims we certainly have our reservations)

Pope Francis for example did a lot for Gaza, he spoke out openly against Israel many times, and he was overall a mostly respectable man.

Anyway, Trump needs to put some respect on Pope Leo’s name. Catholics can’t keep allowing him to use their religion only when it benefits him, then thrashing the Pope on a random Monday evening during an ego trip.
