When I was first assigned this story, I expected it to be another “leftist Hollywood star says something dumb on Twitter” article. After reading what actress Rose McGowan has been posting since the killing of terrorist mastermind Qasem Soleimani, I can only feel sorry for her. She’s clearly misguided, which is normal in Hollywood, but also seems to have some kind of mental challenge that prevents her from understanding exactly what she’s saying. She’s like a modern day Hanoi Jane Fonda, only with Twitter at her disposal.
Here’s the first Tweet that drew the ire of many.
Dear #Iran, The USA has disrespected your country, your flag, your people. 52% of us humbly apologize. 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. #Soleimani pic.twitter.com/YE54CqGCdr

This Tweet led to many responses that also seemed to trigger McGowan as badly as the news of Soleimani’s death. She responded to several, but as the night wore on, her responses become more and more unhinged from reality.
Here’s a sampling:
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. This is about WWIII, so none of that shit matters anyway. #TeamStayAlive #RoseArmy pic.twitter.com/l7MtDXUVuy

Of course #Soleimani was an evil evil man who did evil evil things. But that at this moment is not the fucking point. The United States is morally corrupt and acts illegally. It is only logical to appeal to Iran’s pride by apologizing. I’m taking one for the team. #TeamStayAlive

The way McGowan framed her apology to Iran was as if a majority of Americans were opposed to the righteous killing of the (formerly) most proficient living murderer of American citizens and troops, a title he took on after Osama bin Laden was killed. You didn’t see the American left begging al Qaeda not to kill us. You also didn’t see the American right denouncing the move, as we generally side with America over partisan considerations. It was a good thing that the Obama administration took down bin Laden, just as it’s a good thing the Trump administration took down Soleimani.
Conservatives on Twitter were not kind:
Dear #Iran: please adopt Rose McGowan. https://t.co/QFWeUvjj0z

Imagine being a woman who fought against sexual assault and for women empowerment 'apologizing' to a regime that their own people hate and who routinely jail and kill women for just taking off their hijabs. This is quite disgusting. https://t.co/j5z4sYMwEl

1. You have a passport and can leave at anytime. I wouldn’t suggest visiting Iran, though, because they don’t care about self-gratifying tweets from D-list Hollywood actors.
2. Iran already killed a lot of Americans. That’s what tonight was about. Justice and future safety. https://t.co/ad231g3bCe

Dear Rose, you have no idea what you are talking about. Remember who the people were who backed you up when you came forward with your abuse account. Stop standing up for actual dictators who have murdered millions. Your hyperbole doesn’t help. Try wearing that outfit in Iran. https://t.co/pdJL8nZQdx

Apologizing to Iran for killing a guy responsible for the deaths of hundreds of Americans just to own Trump.

Who apologizes and begs for mercy from an evil regime on behalf of some 150+ million people? She must have collected a lot of signatures for her petition awfully quickly. https://t.co/lZqIE67u7H

Dear Rose McGowan,
You can “escape” the USA, you treasonous psycho, by immediately moving to Iran. https://t.co/VbbujqDpa4— Robbin Young (@Robbin_Young) January 3, 2020
He led an attack on our embassy where people chanted "Death to America" and is responsible for killing hundreds of Americans and maiming prob thousands more.
If you wanna escape, Delta's ready when you are.
P.S. Soleimani would kill you simply for identifying as non-binary https://t.co/ZZsPi5LP0h

I’m Iranian by birth. Iranians are happy. Do you realize that this guy was psychopath? Part of a group that tortured, raped, sodomized its own citizens? Do you have any F***ing clue or do you just want attention? #Soleimani makes Hervey Weinstein look like a saint.

What Rose McGowan’s “Dear Iran” Tweet demonstrates is the real motivation for leftist hatred of President Trump. They cannot see any action he takes, even positive ones, without assuming the worst. They live in fear of… everything.
Update: McGowan acknowledged that she “freaked out,” likely regarding her initial “Dear Iran” Tweet and perhaps subsequent Tweets when she’s insulting people.
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.
