A couple things…

The “conflict“ in Iran *IS* a war.
It is a war of choice.
It is warfare without conscious.
It was unprovoked.

And I’m sick and tired of people suggesting & implying the only tragedies herein are that US Service Members have died. The people of Iran are innocents in this conflict!

Good thing the economy is doing so well that we can easily afford the $1B a day cost of the war in Iran 😳🤬🤬🤬. This is our war of aggression at the behest of Israel). I didn’t realize we elected Netanyahu as our president. 🤬. This is going to be prolonged and it will be extremely costly to everyone

Iran held a mass funeral yesterday for the 165 schoolgirls murdered in the February 28 bombing by the U.S.

That’s 165 martyrs for Iran to avenge.

Kansans challenge state law that invalidated trans residents’ IDs ahead of midterm elections The new state law went into effect Thursday after Republican lawmakers overrode Gov. Laura Kelly’s veto on Feb. 18, immediately invalidating trans residents’ identification.

A new state law making it harder for transgender Kansans to vote is “dangerous and cruel voter suppression,” @equality.house.gov said.

And now, activists are concerned other states will follow suit, potentially locking them out of the electoral process just months before the midterms.

How We Actually Pay for War and Billionaire Tax Cuts
Trump is launching us into what could be another costly and deadly forever war.Meanwhile, he and Republicans are making How We Actually Pay for War and Billionaire Tax Cuts

At more than $5 billion and counting, the cost of Operation Epic Fury so far could cover SNAP benefits for more than 2 million Americans.

But instead of feeding hungry people at home, we're cutting food stamps in order to lower taxes for the rich and boost military spending to record levels.

There's no reason for Iran to attack NATO nation Turkey—but a drone did. Iran denies sending it.

There's no reason for Iran to attack a UK base in Cyprus—but a drone did. Iran denies sending it.

Now Azerbaijan has been attacked. Iran denies involvement.

I think this is Israel.

The lack of understanding of the Hulqu'minum Treaty Group is shocking and the fact that this is Quw'utsun Traditional Territory is common knowledge. Douglas never followed through with the treaty and the steamrolling of Indigenous Rights needs to come full circle to be properly addressed.
