Trump administration waging illegal war on Iran, experts say
Administration offers shifting explanations as it acts without congressional approval or legal premise
The Trump administration is waging an illegal war on Iran, one that defies both the US constitution and international armed conflict laws, according to several legal scholars and bipartisan lawmakers.
The Senate will vote Wednesday on whether to halt Donald Trumpβs military offensive, which he launched on 28 February. Hundreds of people, including six US personnel, have been killed in a conflict that has now expanded to Lebanon, Syria, Iraq, Israel and the Persian Gulf. Continue reading...

A new space race could turn our atmosphere into a βcrematorium for satellitesβ
Planned βmegaconstellationsβ of satellites could cause unforeseen harm to the ozone layer and climate systems. Global regulation is needed before itβs too late.
"...We estimate that a million satellites could mean that a teragram (one billion kgs) of alumina accumulates in the upper atmosphere β enough, alongside launch emissions, to significantly alter atmospheric chemistry and heating in dramatic ways we do not yet understand."

Trump belittles Starmer with 'no Churchill' jibe but can the special relationship recover?
The remarks came amid a row over the refusal to permit the use of UK bases for the initial US-Israel strikes.
A special relationship is built on mutual love and respect.
An abusive relationship is when your partner belittles you, gives nothing back, threatens you, keeps negatively comparing you to an ex partner and despite it all assumes you'll always be there for them.

If you disregard Spain's sovereign rights today, you're essentially telling every EU member state that their sovereignty is conditional on American approval.
That would be the behavior of an occupying power and we Europeans will not accept that. We still have significant leverage over the US.π

News: Commanders across dozens of U.S. military bases told troops the war on Iran is part of "God's plan" so Trump can bring about "Armageddon"
News: so Trump can bring about "Armageddon." The Military Religious Freedom Foundation (MRFF) has been
"inundated" with complaints since the U.S. and Israel launched attacks on Iran over the weekend, receiving more than 110 complaints from U.S. military personnel stationed at dozens of sites across the Middle East.
Journalist Jonathan Larsen broke the story, sharing specific complaints made by troops. One such complaint made by a noncommissioned officer reported that their commander had
"urged us to tell our troops that this was 'all part of God's divine plan' and he specifically referenced numerous citations out of the Book of Revelation referring to Armageddon and the imminent return of Jesus Christ."
"He said that 'President Trump has been anointed by Jesus to light the signal fire in Iran to cause Armageddon and mark his return to Earth," the NCO continued. "He had a big grin on his face when he said all of this which made his message seem even more crazy."
MRFF told Larsen that over 110 complaints came
The Military Religious Freedom Foundation has received 110+ complaints from US service members across 30+ sites about commanders using religious rhetoric
Including calling the war with Iran "part of God's plan" and Trump "anointed by Jesus to light the signal fire in Iran to cause Armageddonβ
