@MazMHussain Agreed, though one wonders what will happen when the US asks to return. Both sides will need to demand better terms for domestic political purposes, and Iran may reasonably feel it needs stronger protections from US unreliability. Doubt Euros will put up much fuss, though. — PolitiTweet.org

I’d expect that the legacy of Iran Air 655, a civilian airliner shot down by the US in 1988 amid the confusion of ongoing conflict, will add to the trauma of this moment for Iranians. Just terrible. — PolitiTweet.org

Yet more indication that Iran deliberately telegraphed this attack: they came right out and said they were likely to target nearby US bases with medium-range missiles. https://t.co/0JMJZSZeqU — PolitiTweet.org

Ali Shamkhani had telegraphed this. https://t.co/j0yvqAZn4S https://t.co/7Nwg2Cldjh

Given the high likelihood that such a message would be intercepted by the Americans, or even relayed, this feels like more suggestion that Iran deliberately telegraphed the strikes https://t.co/iVIb3nuGzt — PolitiTweet.org

Just for the record, this @washingtonpost headline is flatly untrue and not supported by any evidence whatsoever. The story makes the same baseless and irresponsible assertion. https://t.co/yJhYVBi166 https://t.co/3ibnKIMPXO — PolitiTweet.org

Trump withdrew from the Iran nuclear deal claiming Iran was “on the cusp of acquiring" a nuke, which his own military+intel flatly contradicted. The resulting cycle of crises has now led to Iran withdrawing from all nuclear limits. Will look wild in the history books! — PolitiTweet.org

One point to stress, though: Iran gets talked about in the US primarily as a nefarious adversary, but it is also a country of 80-plus million. Regular people, families, already suffering under sanctions. The greatest costs of war always fall on civilians. Worth keeping in mind. — PolitiTweet.org
Max Fisher @Max_Fisher
Iran’s nuclear program is partial and appears dormant. Still, the mere possibility of breakout creates an escalatory pull. US might feel pressure to strike nuclear infrastructure early. Iran might feel pressure to restart development while it still can. — PolitiTweet.org
Max Fisher @Max_Fisher
Iran has a network of allies and proxies. It has demonstrated assymetric capabilities. But its conventional power is significant as well. I reported last year on its partial but meaningful progress toward missiles that could reach well beyond the Mid East. https://t.co/OrBwdNM8qu — PolitiTweet.org

Activists often argue FPTP gives their opponents a structural geographic advantage, but this almost never bears out. FPTP consistently favors the PV winner. Two rare exceptions, 1987 and 2010, saw *Labour* with slightly more efficient vote/seat ratios despite losing the PV. — PolitiTweet.org

@chrislhayes @mattyglesias The big distinction IMO are personalization and presidentialization, which are genuinely new as defining political forces and really change the nature of norm-trampling, since they allow or even compel that institutions will attacked in much more damaging, lasting ways. — PolitiTweet.org
