And then you see a steady stream of very "convincing" pleas on TikTok: "I am Iranian, and I am ecstatic that the United States of America, and President Donald Trump are taking decisive action to LIBERATE my people... 🥳 " These assholes are a dime a dozen and really the shame of humanity. I hope they are getting paid enough for that. Actually I hope not, but I am sure there is some good money involved. 🇺🇸

Machiavelli warned about exiles in The Prince. Paraphrased: “One must be cautious of those who come from other lands, especially if they have left their own country. Their judgment is shaped elsewhere; their loyalty is not to your state, but to their own interest. They may admire your institutions or despise them, but either way, they can do harm if trusted blindly.”
