Actress Rose McGowan defends tweet apologizing to Iran after U.S. airstrike

Rose McGowan’s tweet that apologized on behalf of the U.S. to Iran for “disrespecting their flag and people” in the wake of an airstrike that killed the country’s top general was not anti-American, the actress said in the face of harsh criticism.

“I don’t support Iran over America. I want America to be better,” McGowan said during an exclusive interview with The Associated Press on Friday.

Her tweet read: “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.”

She faced outrage over Friday’s Twitter post, with some suggesting she move to Iran. McGowan acknowledged that her tweet was unusual.

“I woke up, I stupidly looked at Twitter. I was going to the bathroom, and I was like, ‘what?’” She added that she doesn’t believe the governments of either Iran or the U.S.

“So, I just thought I would do something a little strange or unusual … bloodshed should be avoided if you can,” she said. “And I kind of just thought, what if I take a really bizarre way around this. A very strange thought, I understand.”

While going to the bathroom (I'm not sure if that means she was walking to the bathroom or using the bathroom) she had the idea she could save the world.

Glad that both Rose and Alyssa have weighed in on this. Now we know how we should think....or feel.

Has Shannen Doherty weighed in yet? (Although IIRC she is a Republican)

Any woman who goes bald, and not from chemo, is usually Psycho.

See Sinead O’Connor (or whatever her Muzzie name is now)

She says this to Iranians? :)

Again, I say Jim should allow a one horrible word allowed once a year deal for a 50 dollar donation to FR.

So I could call her what I want right now :)

He’d probably finish off the FReepathons in 2 weeks :)

I think those are Iraqis, judging by the flag and the beating with shoes treatment of his face - which is DEFINITELY an insult. I think the latter is an “Arab” thing. Not sure Iranians do the same.

One of the single best arguments for repeal of the 14th amendment.

Yes, and they have replied on twitter also. They saw her tweet and were not amused.
