There are so many US presidents who deserved to be tried before the ICC for their various crimes against humanity (Bush/Iraq, NIxon-Kissinger/Vietnam, Truman/Hiroshima, etc.). But none more deserving than these 2 imbecilic criminals:

Someone might want to warn the Gulf states that if they permit Netanyahu to turn Tehran into a smoke filled apocalyptic nightmare, that Iran can play at this game too. All those US Patriots can't stop every Iranian Missile.

Remember the last time they tried to trick us into believing we had to make war on a country based on fraudulent claims it had nuclear weapons? That's right, Iraq. How did that go?

When was the last time the US mounted a coup to overthrow a Middle Eastern democracy? Mossadegh/Iran/1953. Seems we've learned nothing in the interim...

Why Netanyahu Duped Trump Into the Illegal War With Iran

Largest civilian death toll of any US Middle East Attack in decades. Not the Dept of War. The Dept. of Genocide.

Exclusive: US investigation points to likely US responsibility in Iran school strike, sources say Military investigators believe it is likely that U.S. forces were responsible for an apparent strike on an Iranian girls' school that killed scores of children on Saturday, two U.S. officials told Reuters.

Trump- Netanyahu war on children. 170 Iranian girls were slaughtered at their desks in this bit of child murder, not "scores" as this report claims

We Jews know this in our bones as anti-Semitism. But you know what? ADL, which should be all over this over this, is more interested in cheerleading our illegal war on MAGA & Israel's behalf

Israel has declared a date of emergency. In the guise of protecting the citizenry, this prohibits any form of political protest or public gathering. A planned anti war protest was cancelled because the State seeks to suppress dissent.

The Hasbara online space has been rife with mock outrage over Iran's alleged use of cluster munitions. Apparently they conveniently forgot the thousands of Lebanese they killed with US-made cluster munitions during past Israeli invasions.

How Much Do F-15 Fighter Jets Cost? Kuwait Shoots Down Three Strike Eagles In Friendly Fire Mishap Three U.S. F-15E Strike Eagles were mistakenly shot down by Kuwaiti air defenses during active combat operations against Iran, though all crew members survived., US News, Times Now

Huge US missile defense failure as Kuwait Shoots Down Three Strike Eagles worth $50 million each. How does missile defense not distinguish between an Iranian ballistic missile and a US F-16?

AP False reporting: Ayatollah *has* designated successors for himself and all senior leadership. Nor does his assassination "cast doubt on the future of the regime." It will survive. Even if overthrown, it will continue to exist.

What Americans think about Trump's judgment on military force as Iran talks resume: New AP-NORC poll A new AP-NORC poll finds that as the U.S. and Iran head into their next round of nuclear talks in Geneva, many U.S. adults continue to view Iran’s nuclear program as a threat.

60% of Americans have little or no faith in Trump regarding waging a war against Iran

Trump's pointless war begins. A war neither he nor anyone can win. Even if he topples the clerical regime & replaces it with Shah 2.0, that will only provoke years of conflict in the region. The only winner will be Israel, which benefits from regional chaos.

Harris is "one of her party's biggest stars?" In what universe? She didn't run for president or governor this time around because she knows she's political road kill. Also, very bad idea to engage her to do a robocall.

Israel massacred far more Palestinians than anyone could imagine The Lancet report of a 35% undercount in Gaza’s death toll raises questions about the true scale of genocide - but will it move world leaders to act?

Lancet: Israeli genocide murdered far more Palestinians than the current casualty count: 90,000 dead from 10/7 till January 2025. That number could be even higher.
