If this is sarcasm, it is tasteless. Anything else is grotesque.

Nobody did this on Oct 7. Not Iran. Not anyone. The only ones in the area who have split open babies and women is Israel bsky.app/profile/ayou...

Unconfirmed reports of Iranian strikes landing in sensitive sites in Israel, a clear retaliation for Israel/US attacks against water and oil resources in Iran.

The obligation not to aid the crime of aggression is on all states. Multiple European states are violating that obligation and are directly complicit in US/Israel aggression against Iran. We already knew about the UK. And now there are reports of German and Ukrainian involvement as well.

Human shielding is the intentional placement of ppl, usually civilians, btwn the adversary & its enemies in order 2 deter an attack against the forces using human shields.

The US govt looks 2 b housing its soldiers in hotels in order to protect them from Iranian attacks. The def of human shielding

There are open passages for rainwater etc between the road & the sidewalks in Tehran. Some of them seem to be filled with flaming oil thanks to US/Israel targeting of civilian infrastructure. This will spread the fire quickly. Ppl, homes thru the city are at risk of burning. x.com/Conflict_Rad...

Sources: Trump Is Dangerously Close to Sending Troops to Iran Advisers are urging the president β€˜to go bigger to end this once and for all.’

"[O]fficials and other close allies have privately briefed Trump that if he wants to achieve what he says he wants to achieve in his illegal war. . . then he is going to have to deploy ground troops to Iran. . .Trump, the sources say, has been receptive to these ideas" zeteo.com/p/trump-send...

As civilian infrastructure becomes increasingly subject to targeting during this war, remember it is the United States, along with Israel, that has put "dual use" objects, like electricity grids, oil infrastructure, water plants etc, at the center of war.

The pollution from US/Israel strikes will last a long time. They can't even put these fires out. They have to wait for the fire to peter out.

The US has played a critical role in attempting to normalize targeting of so-called dual use objects like oil facilities. Israel's entire military strategy revolves around targeting these objects. Together, these 2 states have brought back total war in order 2 make civilians suffer first & foremost

Targeting desalination plants is an incredible double edged sword. Iran is extremely vulnerable, but so are the countries of the Gulf Cooperation Council. If pushed to the brink, Iran could easily depopulate much of the region. Iran already struck Israel’s largest desalination plant three days ago.

Reporting on the Kurdish incursion plan has been all over the place because the plan was all over the place and met with lots of Kurdish resistance. Maybe because of that resistance Trump is now saying this πŸ‘‡. It may also have something to do w/reported US plans to seize the Kharg oil facilities
