Iranian foreign minister says they were making progress in negotiations, the same way they did last time, before in the middle of said talks, the USA and Israel decide to skip over further discussion, and attack.

They want genocide if that's what it takes throughout the Middle East. Wanting all.

Trump: Earlier today, CENTCOM shared the news that three U.S. military service members have been killed in action… And sadly, there will likely be more before it ends. That’s the way it is. Likely be more.

Reform are not the Opposition. They have had fewer MPs elected than the Green Party, which had five elected under their banner in this Parliament alone.

STOP. MAINSTREAMING. REFORM.

If the BBC had given them coverage proportional to their actual significance, we would barely know who Farage is.

The attack on Iran happened because Donald Trump wanted war, not because Iran posed an imminent threat.

The costs of this Iran war debacle will likely be more than the cost of extending the ACA health insurance subsidies.

If you asked Americans, which do you want: another war in the Middle East or lower health care costs at home, is the margin 90 to 10? 95 to 5?

There are so many take aways from this Iranian conflict.

1. The vulnerability of Dubai.
2. The vulnerability of Putin - have you read how they waited for the Ayatollah?
3. The stance taken by Australia - impressive
3. The courage of Starmer to refuse the use of our bases

Dubai imports most of its food. By air and sea. How is that going to work if flights are cancelled for much longer?

Reckon pressure is on Trump to stop this. He might have to hand his plane back.

Aside how this is pushing us more and more towards involvement, why is the government making major defence announcements concerning ongoing conflicts exclusively though a video on Twitter?

Would be interested in how this categorisation works in US?

In UK there is a list of nationally-important consumers who shouldn't be load shed, but including: oil refineries, airports, some banks, some military bases.

However the Heathrow blackout incident exposed this is not working very well.

Starmer is allowing a wanted International Criminal, and a suspected Paedophile, to use British military bases.

In an illegal war against a sovereign country.

And Healey said earlier, the terror threat in the UK was being reviewed.

We no know why.

Starmer seems to be treading a very thin line here - claiming attacks on Iranian military bases are merely β€œlimited defensive” interventions, and that by fueling and launching the bombing raids the UK is not really participating in them. Not sure the Iranians will see it that way

US military says three of its troops killed in first Iran operation casualties Three U.S. service members have been killed and another five have been seriously wounded, in the first casualties of the unfolding U.S. operations against Iran, the U.S. military said on Sunday.

Reports indicate at least 100 children have already been killed in strikes on schools. That is unconscionable.

Three U.S. service members are dead as a result of this entirely preventable war of choice.

The blood of these service members, these children, and every civilian rests in Trump’s hands.

The death of Iran’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei brought a sense of disbelief to a nation divided over his legacy, as loyal supporters gathered in mourning and opponents celebrated his demise.
