      it’s an english tweet and it’s targeted at americans. phrases like war of choice are only used in english media. sadly the only framing that works on the average american is being betrayed by foreigners.

      I think the Araghchi tweet is in reference to Trump’s speech last night which claimed that China changed the outcome of the 2020 election so that Biden would win, a conspiracy theory that makes no sense.

      Araghchi is saying that Israel has more interference in US elections through lobbying and Christian Zionist politicians, than China has over any US politics.

          Biden also told the media that Xi Jinping is a dictator only minutes after speaking face-to-face with Xi in California. It is Trump making the absurd claim. The way that you quoted my sentence makes it seem like I said that.

            ??? I wasn’t trying to say you said anything, just quoted the bit that supposedly makes biden and china friendly (if true) with a fact that indicates it’s not

            I guess you’d have preferred i quoted the “a conspiracy theory which makes no sense” but i mean I was offering a fact to back that up

            Edit: this sounds more hostile than i feel fyi i ain’t mad

      I think he means that Netanyahu lied to Trump about Iran having plans to assassinate him which is why they were so keen on killing khomeini and trump tweeting after “I got him before he got me”
