What is decadence? I don’t know. I can’t define it in abstract terms - yet. But I think I can recognise it when I see it. And I am looking at it now. (With apologies to Kenneth Clark).

🧵 Graffiti and street art in Iran after Iranian retaliation “‘War,’ ace card for governments in crisis,” referring to Israel and the IRI.
It is vital we retain a distinction between the regime & wider Iranian society. The gulf between them, in attitude, approach and above all morality, is wide and getting wider

Iran boxed itself into a rhetorical corner: it has to respond to Israel & can’t do nothing. Today’s capture of a ship probably only the beginning. But a barrage of missiles could fail to reach Israeli targets- making Iran look weak. So maybe damned if they do - and if they don’t.
Famous last words from Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian: Iran "is an island of stability and security in the troubled" Middle East. (This was the same line President Jimmy Carter used in 1977 while visiting Tehran—the rest is history) en.isna.ir/news/140301201…

2K Followers 388 Following جهان یادگارست و ما رفتنی / به گیتی نماند به جز مردمی جمهوریخواه و فمینیستِ ایراندوستThread: The UK Parliament's Foreign Affairs Committee held a hearing on Tuesday attended by former MI6 Chief Alex Younger and Professor of Iranian History at University of St Andrews Ali Ansari "as part of its inquiry into the UK’s international counter-terrorism policy."
An absolute pleasure to have the great Prof Michael Cox deliver our 5th lecture in the Trevelyan College’s Global Dynamics lecture series, on the changing and world-shaping PRC-USA relations. Wish you were there to be blown away by the power of the lecture!
Confession: the only philosopher who has brought me to tears on account of unclarity and difficulty to read is Kant. Can you see why?
On the one hand, I always tell students that (contrary to what they have been told) Kant is a great writer. On the other hand, this is ONE sentence.
After the last ten years, listening to the SNP ask for a reset and for everyone - all the other parties - to start being nice to each other and work with the SNP is… hilarious.
I was told by a high-ranking US government official that this isn’t true…

#Iran regime has published some details about April 13 attacks on Israel. For instance, Khamenei gave the operations order while reading one of his own poems about... Moses opening the Red Sea!
It takes years to build organizations. Usually much shorter to destroy them

Some responses here are revealing and prove the point. Yet it shouldn't be hard. Protest the occupation, oppose the war, call for a ceasefire (and don't forget to call for the hostages to be released). Don't glorify violence against Jews and call for the elimination of Israel.
Well said. Like Prof Waxman, I agree with some of the protesters' demands (oppose occupation, support 2 state solution) & I defend the right to peaceful protest. But I cannot support these protests: too many, including organisers, glorify terrorism & call for Israel's elimination
Well, that escalated quickly…

Well, sure. Fine. But, once again, I am struck by the way many London-based media folk are disinclined to hold SNP politicians to anything like the standard they demand of Labour or Tory ones. (Ditto with Northern Ireland, too.)
A dignified, yet quite emotional resignation from @HumzaYousaf. It's sad in many ways that his tenure has ended in this way, as I think he is a fundamentally decent person.
Words can’t express how much it means to me that I was invited to speak on stage about Iranian Gen Z. I’ll use this important opportunity to talk about Toomaj Salehi and how he’s the voice of this brave and defiant generation in Iran. #FreeToomajSalehi
