    John isn't a saint by any means but the BBC & others have fcked him over and minimized his voice consistently going all the way back to the Grundy show incident. He's been treated as a court jester by the British press despite, um, courting that purposely at times, he at least deserves an OBE for his many years of not only surviving but thriving as an English culture influencer. A profoundly frustrating iconoclast but a unique icon nonetheless.

  22. @sexobscura

    January 22, 2024 at 7:54 pm

    John didn't renounce the 'Rotten' name with the end of the Pistols, it legally belonged to McLaren and 'his' Sex Pistols, so by law couldn't use it – complete legality

    This is one of Johns best interviews! The interviewer kept trying to call him out or trip him up and John just turned the tables cuz he's always honest! I love Mr. Lydon. He's a treasure 💛🎶😍👍

    Johnny Rotten on the Today Show. In the 70s he'd be pissing on them.

US hits ‘dozens’ of Iranian sites in strikes, as Iran targets US bases in region | BBC News

Published

on



The US said it has hit “dozens” of Iranian military targets in overnight attacks, in response to Iran hitting commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz.

The military said it struck “air-defense systems, coastal radar sites, missile and drone capabilities, and small boats”, using aircraft, ships, and drones – including “one-way attack sea drones for the first time”.

“The Strait of Hormuz is a vital maritime corridor for global trade,” the US military said. “Iran does not control it”.

In response, Iran said it targeted US bases in Jordan, Bahrain, and Kuwait and also radar systems in Oman.

Trump demands 20% toll on cargos passing through strait of Hormuz | BBC News

Published

on



President Donald Trump has said the US is reinstating a naval blockade of Iranian ports and will impose a 20% charge on all cargo shipped through the Strait of Hormuz following days of escalating strikes between the two countries.

He said this would stop “Iran’s ships or customers” from entering or leaving the key oil shipping route, but “all other countries will have fair and open use of the Strait”.

Iran’s foreign minister later said whoever provides safe passage “should be compensated for this service”, but Iran would remain the strait’s “GUARDIAN” – using Trump’s word.

Tehran and Washington clashed over the strait’s control after exchanging strikes in the region overnight and on Monday.

The US said it carried out strikes against military targets in Iran, targeting air defence systems, coastal radars, and missile and drone sites. Iran said it responded by striking US military bases in Kuwait, Jordan and Bahrain, and radars in Oman.
