Iranians gather on the bridges threatened by Trump

Is Trump really about to bomb these bridges and infrastructure, even with thousands of Iranian civilians using their bodies to protect them?

Vance is no better than Trump

Does Vance really  believe we’re this stupid? The United States is engaging in terrorism, not Iran. Iran was attacked, and they responded as any rational nation would. The US, by attacking a sovereign nation, is responsible for the “economic terrorism” now inflicted upon the world, not Iran.

The war was first about nuclear enrichment. Now it’s about opening the Strait of Hormuz, which was open before the war began. Iran is not going to bow to this kind of pressure. Their response tonight will be a big F U.

Tulsi Gabbard might be able to take the wind out of the war by resigning and joining Joe Kent in publicly denouncing the war. Why hasn’t she?

Will Trump really destroy all civilian infrastructure in Iran?

After Israel bombed Gaza until it was nothing but rubble, many warned that this was a template that Israel would use on other countries. I didn’t think they could get away with it a second time, but I hadn’t taken into account the possibility that the US would join in. I truly didn’t believe Trump would descend to that depravity. He apparently has. The goal looks to be the demolition of Iranian civilization.

Trump’s threats directed at Iran sound a lot like genocide

Flippant threats made against an entire people should disqualify any President from continuing to hold office. Sounds like he’s talking nuclear annihilation of a nation that’s done nothing more than insult him and refuse to bend to his will.

Our military can’t find the downed pilot

To think, bombing civilian infrastructure, murdering thousands, and attempting the total destruction of a country that hasn’t attacked you would actually make the civilian population want to rip you limb from limb. Rules of engagement exist in case one of our own is captured, but Trump has thrown any civility by the wayside. This may be the most consequential argument against a ground invasion. Trump’s indiscriminate, even gleeful, targeting of civilians means our POWs would be tortured and lynched almost immediately.

One month ago: Marine Corp veteran gets treated like trash by Capitol police

March 4th, Brian McGinnis gets violently dragged out of a Congressional hearing because he stood up and said “Israel is the reason for this war”. He is immediately attacked, no verbal warning, no one asks him first to leave peacefully. He’s brutally manhandled, yet continues to speak out, even when his arm breaks. The commentary at the end, “You’re all robots”, is perfect.

ICE arrests Soleimani’s niece and grand-niece in apparent hostage-taking

Iran has shot down our aircraft, and have apparently taken US soldiers hostage, because there is no other explanation for the arrest of Soleimani’s niece and grand-niece, other than leverage for a prisoner swap. They were in the country legally, by the way. Rubio’s revocation of their green cards was probably at the behest of Trump.
