🇮🇷 IRGC Navy: — The supertanker "El Gaya," maritime identification number 9325336, which intended to cross the prohibited area in the southern Strait of Hormuz, exploded after striking naval mines. Efforts to contain the fire were futile, and the entire tanker has been engulfed in flames.

A warning had previously been issued regarding the danger of this illegal transit route. The Strait of Hormuz is closed and remains under our smart control.

Iran's Press TV also claims

High res Saudi oil p0rn -

All they are doing is making him more popular while showing the world they are racist genociders. Pink was a huge letdown in this too.

If the agencies are forcing them to do this then the agencies need to be called out, the people will support them.

But but Mr. Peterson, aren't lobsters red like Elmo?

Now that the German fascists are full blown back and building a military industrial complex in Germany again.....

PressTV: If Iran sought nuclear weapons, it would not have joined NPT

Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian has rejected claims that Iran is seeking nuclear weapons, stressing that Tehran has consistently operated within international law and would not have joined the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) if it had been pursuing such weapons.

Speaking to India Today on the sidelines of the BRICS summit in New Delhi, Pezeshkian said Iran’s nuclear activities had been subject to extensive international monitoring and inspections.

“We were ready, and they would come every day to inspect and visit. We were working and are working within the framework of international laws. If we were seeking nuclear weapons, we would not have become a member of the NPT,” he said.

The president said allegations concerning Iran’s nuclear program were being used as “pretexts” to justify aggression against the country.

Pezeshkian also rejected claims that Iran had initiated the ongoing war, saying the United States and Israel had started the war and that Tehran had only defended itself against attacks.

“We did not start the war. The criminal United States and Israel started it,” he said.

Ferry with 243 people goes missing off the coast of Indonesia

NPR - Indonesian passenger ship overturns, sparking search for about 130 missing

BANJARMASIN, Indonesia — Indonesian rescuers say about 130 passengers and crew are missing after a ferry carrying more than 240 people sank in bad weather in the Java Sea on Sunday. At least 107 people were rescued and the bodies of six passengers were recovered as the search operation expanded in waters around the vessel's last known position.

The ferry was traveling from Surabaya in East Java to Banjarmasin in South Kalimantan province, officials said.

The vessel's captain had earlier reported rough seas with waves up to 3 meters (10 feet) before issuing a distress message, saying the ship was listing, said I Putu Sudayana, who heads the Banjarmasin Search and Rescue Office. Authorities later received information indicating the vessel had overturned and then sunk.

The rescue agency in Banjarmasin said it received a report two hours after contact was lost with the Virgo Transport 8 at about 2 a.m. Sunday. The ship had departed from Surabaya, Indonesia's second largest city, en route to Banjarmasin, a city on Borneo Island.

And what do policymakers look to when developing policy?

Stink tank lobbyists and polls. Polls matter. When you lost to Trump AGAIN, it was because Dems ignored public opinion and polls. Then they go into denial and abusive shaming.

Thou shalt not worship false idols.

Premium loot boxes!

Let us not blame the Democrats from running scandal ridden and deeply unpopular 's VP Gore who had Clinton's baggage to carry. Let us not blame the Supreme Court who appointed Bush. Let us look past the fact Bush's father was CIA or how the CIA installed him as Governor of Texas along with his brother as Governor of Florida where the hanging chad controversy was.

Let us not blame Gore for running a shit campaign or the Democrats for tossing the left under the bus during Clinton's administration. Or the Clinton administration for their war on labor unions and the rise of Walmart killing home town stores. People did not forget the 1999 Battle for Seattle was fresh in people's minds.

Let us not forgot how Gore just folded and did not fight the Supreme Court despite winning the popular vote in Florida.

The entitled little shits at the DNC just deflect and forget. Think they are owed and failed rather than own up to their own failures.

People who voted Green probably wasn't going to vote for the Dems anyways, especially in deep red Florida. But the guy who helped save thousands by getting seatbelts in cars gets the blame. It is never the dems fault ever. It is never the system's fault ever.

Ask a liberal - given what we seen from Obama bailing out the banks on 2008, freezing minimum wage at $7.25/hr, throwing away universal healthcare for Romney care insurance racket, having his entire cabinet dictated by Citigroup, Obama and Biden being warhawks, not closing Gitmo, and expanding on the PATRIOT ACT bullshit GW Bush did, if Gore was president on 9/11 what would have been different?
