💬 🇺🇸 Trump:

Based on the fact that the Government of Iran is seriously fractured, not unexpectedly so and, upon the request of Field Marshal Asim Munir, and Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, of Pakistan, we have been asked to hold our Attack on the Country of Iran until such time as their leaders and representatives can come up with a unified proposal.

I have therefore directed our Military to continue the Blockade and, in all other respects, remain ready and able, and will therefore extend the Ceasefire until such time as their proposal is submitted, and discussions are concluded, one way or the other.

🤕 🇲🇽 In Mexico, police spent several days unable to find a missing girl because she had applied filters to all her photos on social media, making her impossible to recognize in real life.

💬 🇮🇷🇺🇸 Advisor to Iran’s parliament speaker Ghalibaf:

Trump’s decision to extend the ceasefire makes no sense. The ceasefire extension is an attempt to buy time for a surprise attack. Iran currently holds the initiative.

#️⃣ 🇮🇷 Iran's Tasnim:

Continuation of a naval blockade amounts to continued hostility; as long as the blockade persists, Iran will at least not reopen the Strait of Hormuz, and if necessary, it will break the blockade by force.

😭 🇮🇷🇮🇳 The Indian-flagged oil tanker SANMAR HERALD, which was fired upon by IRGC boats last Sunday, has reportedly fallen victim to a cryptocurrency scam.

According to reports, the vessel was contacted by an Indian man claiming to represent the IRGC Navy. The captain subsequently transferred a large sum in USDT cryptocurrency and received “clearance for passage.” However, when the vessel entered the Strait of Hormuz, it was fired upon by actual IRGC naval forces, who had issued no such clearance.

#️⃣ 🇮🇷🇺🇸 IRAN HAS RECEIVED “SOME INDICATIONS” THAT THE UNITED STATES IS READY TO LIFT THE BLOCKADE — TASNIM

💬 🇺🇸 Trump:

Iran is collapsing financially! They want the Strait of Hormuz opened immediately- Starving for cash!

Losing 500 Million Dollars a day. Military and Police complaining that they are not getting paid. SOS!!!

💬 🇺🇸 Trump:

Iran doesn’t want the Strait of Hormuz closed, they want it open so they can make $500 Million Dollars a day (which is, therefore, what they are losing if it is closed!).

They only say they want it closed because I have it totally BLOCKADED (CLOSED!), so they merely want to “save face.”

People approached me four days ago, saying, “Sir, Iran wants to open up the Strait, immediately.” But if we do that, there can never be a Deal with Iran, unless we blow up the rest of their Country, their leaders included!

#️⃣ 🇮🇷 At least 34 Iran-linked tankers have slipped past the US blockade, according to Vortexa, including several carrying crude oil.

#️⃣ 🇨🇳 China's Foreign Ministry on Taiwan:

There is but one China in the world. Taiwan is an inalienable part of China’s territory.

No one can stop the eventual reunification of China.

Reunification is presented as a matter of inevitability, not possibility.

Separatist attempts aimed at Taiwan independence are futile and doomed to fail.

💬 🇮🇷 Iran’s Ghalibaf:

A complete ceasefire only makes sense if it is not violated by the maritime blockade and the hostage-taking of the world’s economy, and if the Zionist warmongering across all fronts is halted; reopening the Strait of Hormuz is impossible with such a flagrant breach of the ceasefire.

They did not achieve their goals through military aggression, nor will they through bullying. The only way forward is to recognize the rights of the Iranian nation.

💬 🇺🇸 Trump:

Very good news! I have just been informed that the eight women protestors who were going to be executed tonight in Iran will no longer be killed.

Four will be released immediately, and four will be sentenced to one month in prison.

I very much appreciate that Iran, and its leaders, respected my request, as President of the United States, and terminated the planned execution.

Thank you for your attention to this matter!

💬 🇺🇸 Trump:

“YOU CAN’T COMPROMISE ON SANITY AND COMMON SENSE!”

💬 🇺🇸 White House:

Iran must turn over the enriched uranium that’s in their possession.

💬 🇺🇸🇮🇱🇱🇧 Tucker Carlson on the Israeli perspective of the IDF soldier smashing a Jesus statue in southern Lebanon:

Not only did the guy who did it get "punished" but so did the guy who filmed it. Exposing what the IDF does to the rest of the world is the "real crime."

What you don't hear is any examination of why it happened in the first place. Why would an Israeli soldier want to do this? What does it reflect of the attitudes of the Israeli military and of Israel itself toward Christianity? That's never addressed.

All that matters is how the rest of the world perceives it and specifically American evangelical Christians, who were the last bulwark of support for Israel in the last country on the globe that supports Israel with money, which would be the United States.

So the problem from the Israeli perspective is not that it happened. The problem is that American evangelicals might find out about it.

💬 🇺🇸🇮🇱🇱🇧 Tucker Carlson:

If an American soldier broke into a synagogue in this or any other country and burned a Torah scroll, he would be severely and rightly punished.

You can't desecrate other people's religious symbols. That is totally wrong, and people who do it should be punished.

In this case, Christians, whose messiah was mocked—a statue of Jesus was just smashed with a sledgehammer they paid for—are told, "No, no, no, this means nothing, and you're a bad person if you think it does."

💬 🇺🇸🇮🇱🇵🇸🇱🇧 Tucker Carlson on Israel's actions against Christians:

It's a very common occurrence where the Israeli military desecrates Christian religious symbols and churches and kills Christians. These are not accidents.

This adds up to, well, what the SPLC might call a "troubling pattern." But it's more than a troubling pattern; it's very close to a policy. And we know that because of indisputable facts of behavior in recent years.

Christian churches were bombed intentionally multiple times in Gaza. Christian parishioners were murdered by the IDF in Gaza.

A mother and daughter were shot to death by an Israeli sniper in a churchyard in Gaza. And the reaction in the United States? Well, there wasn't any reaction in the United States. In every single case Israel denied it happened.

Then when confronted with proof that it happened, because dead people are pretty easy to verify because they're dead, they said, "Oh, it was an accident. We'll look into it." Who was punished? Nobody.

In no case was anybody punished for blowing up churches and murdering Christians in Gaza.

At one point, an Israeli tank fired an artillery shell into a cross on top of a Christian church in Gaza, as if it couldn't get clear what the point of this was. The point was to take down the cross, because the cross is so "offensive," apparently.

💬 🇺🇸🇮🇱 Tucker Carlson:

Christians in the United States, who are paying for this and are the last remaining large group of supporters of the Israeli military in the United States and critical to continued funding for the state of Israel, should have asked themselves, can all of these be accidents?

The country with the most sophisticated munitions on the planet is accidentally bombing churches, and not just once, but again and again.

Do snipers really make mistakes like that? Shooting a mother and a daughter in a churchyard—could that have been a mistake? What's going on here?

Of course, if they'd asked—nobody did. And those who did were immediately denounced as "terror supporters."

Anyone who asked would have found the truth, which is that these are consistent with attitudes toward Christians in Israel, not by all Israelis and not by every government minister in Israel, but by a lot of them.

The loathing of Christianity is absolutely real.
