From Breitbart: Jonathan AC Brown, professor of Islamic Civilization at Georgetown University, expressed hope for Iran to develop a bomb after the United States dealt significant damage to its nuclear program.
Brown expressed his sentiments to his 75.3k followers on X.
“I’m not an expert, but I assume Iran could still get a bomb easily. I hope Iran does some symbolic strike on a base, then everyone stops. I’m surprised this is what these FDD/Hasbara people have been auto-erotically asphyxiating themselves for all these years,” he wrote.
“Ironically, the main takeaways (in my non-expert opinion, and I’m happy to be corrected) from all this have nothing to do with a US attack: 1) Iran can take a licking; 2) if Israel attacks Iranian cities, it gets fucked up pretty bad. I mean I’ve been shocked at the damage Iranian missiles caused; 3) despite his best efforts, Reza Pahlavi HVAC repair services still only third best in Nova,” he added.
Social media users erupted in fury over the shocking post Sunday night.
Did you just actually post that you hope Iran strikes a U.S. base???
Is this ok with you @Georgetown President DeGioia? https://t.co/UCnphsQ5Ih

What is going on at Georgetown University? You can take classes with this guy, but you can cannot study the science and ideas of Friedrich Hayek at Georgetown. That is the modern university in a nutshell, and your taxes are paying for it. https://t.co/Pfom24scrJ

I welcome anyone to correct me, but from what I’m reading here by @JonathanACBrown, a professor of Islamic civilizations at @Georgetown University, is he’s hoping at least one of our bases get attacked by Iran.

Monday morning, Brown caved and deleted his post. Claiming he didn’t really mean it, he wrote, “I deleted my previous tweet because a lot of people were interpreting it as a call for violence. That’s not what I intended. I have two immediate family members in the US military who’ve served abroad and wouldn’t want any harm to befall American soldiers… or anyone!”

Brown is now being blasted with screenshots of his appalling original post.
Too little, too late! Screenshots don’t go away aßshole! It matters what comes out of your mouth the first time, and not when you are trying to rewrite it.
You are simply another overeducated elite academic who hates our country! And the fact that you claim to have two immediate… pic.twitter.com/W5j5hhuDFz— Letta Libre – Maverik (@Lettalibre) June 23, 2025
It’s EXACTLY what you intended.
What you didn’t intend was that you would get dragged for supporting a terrorist regime.
Which says a lot about how IQs at Georgetown have dropped precipitously.
