🏴‍☠️ | The Kurds who relied on and became silent sheep behind the Americans have publicly been betrayed by the Americans themselves. Trump retorted: “The Kurds were paid tremendous amounts of money. We gave them oil and other things. They were doing it for themselves.”

Today, Kurdish propaganda is trying to protect the faces of Mazloum Abdi and those who sold their communities, but they must know—A betrayed and treacherous leadership within a community becomes the greatest enemy of the people living under it. It is evident today that America has betrayed the Kurds, and tomorrow they will betray Julani and Erdoğan as well.

⚡️🇺🇸🇮🇷U.S. President instructed officials in his administration to blow Iran off the map they assasinated him.

"Well, they shouldn't be doing it, but I've left notification. Anything ever happens, we're gonna blow the hell. The whole country is gonna get blown up. So we've you know, originally, Biden should have said something.

You know, when they made a statement, we always said, why isn't Biden saying anything because he didn't? But a president has to defend a president, like, if I were here and they were making that threat to somebody, even not even a president, but somebody like they did with me, I would absolutely hit them so hard. But I have very firm instructions.

Anything happens, they're gonna wipe them off the face of this earth."
