Rose McGowan "Apologizes" To Iran On Behalf Of "Morally Corrupt" US Rose McGowan, the Hollywood actress and Harvey Weinstein accuser who once complained that nobody took her accusations about the predatory superproducer seriously (particularly her claims that Weinstein had her followed by Israeli spies), took to twitter late Thursday to "apologize" to Iran on behalf of all Americans in a deranged Twitter rant that continued into the wee hours of Friday morning. McGowan, who was arrested for possession of cocaine back in 2017, tweeted that "52% of us humbly apologize" - a reference to the percentage of US voters who sided with Hillary Clinton during the 2016 race (which Trump won after handily beating Clinton in the electoral college). Though she supported the Iran deal (which was struck by her successor at the State Department, John Kerry), McGowan has apparently overlooked the fact that Clinton's legacy of hawkishness means many of those who backed her in the election likely supported a more aggressive posture in the region. McGowan added: "we want peace with your nation. We are being held hostage by a terrorist regime. We do not know how to escape. Please do not kill us."

In it, McGowan states that she was simply trying to "stay alive" by appealing to the Ayatollah's better nature.

I’m a registered Republican in California. I loathe the Clintons. I hate Trump. I will not vote Republican, but I cannot vote Democrat. I’d rather know what evil I’m getting, so I’ll go Republican.

Ok, so I freaked out because we may have any impending war. Sometimes it’s okay to freak out on those in power. It’s our right. That is what so many Brave soldiers have fought for. That is democracy. I do not want any more American soldiers killed. That’s it. — rose mcgowan (@rosemcgowan) https://twitter.com/rosemcgowan/status/1213101280278790150?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw!function(d,s,id){var js,fjs=d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0],p=/^http:/.test(d.location)?'http':'https';if(!d.getElementById(id)){js=d.createElement(s);js.id=id;js.src=p+"://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js";fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js,fjs);}}(document,"script","twitter-wjs"); Obama may have signed the Iran deal, but if McGowan really thinks the Democrats will save American from becoming embroiled in potentially devastating global conflicts, somebody should really fill her in on the last half century of America's foreign policy misadventures dating back to the Vietnam War.
