If it was hit by Israel, I'd believe it was being done deliberately. Just saw a video where they shot a 14 year old kid and watched him bleed out for 45 minutes, and they're deliberately obliterating Lebanon like they did Gaza. 😣
I could accept the US doing it, but I don't see how they benefit.
I wish this were harder to believe.
I still think it’s about neck and neck, Hegseth’s utter incompetence versus his utter lack of humanity or professionalism, but neither would surprise me at this point.
I can believe this. Because I do think they have a callous disregard for all lives (except maybe American) and because they would not foresee any consequences that they could not lie their way out of.
I'm so sorry.
Hard to say which is worse: that it was done on purpose, or that they simply didn't give a shit one way or the other.
Nah. It's super counterproductive. Way fewer pros than cons. The outrage about this is universal (supposedly even in MAGA circles) and in Iran fury must be way stronger than intimidation.
Unless... they want to provoke a terrorist attack in response. But those are 2 layers of conspiracy already.
I want to think it’s impossible. The fact that I don’t think it’s impossible though is damage enough
I’m so sorry but I just read this post on the other site and the revelatory truth of it hit me like a ton of bricks. The US government has proven it would violate every ethical and legal norm & constraint to achieve political goals. Why not this.
Nothing can get past this genius
"The war on Iran is bad because of the price of eggs." Get it together, Democrats. I am begging you, a not particularly big guy with tears in my eyes.
It’s all so much worse than we can comprehend or acknowledge.
Just leaving this here (again)
Same goes for these baseless anti sharia law policies, BDS bans, and Israel loyalty pledges. It’s all undermining the very foundations of your constitutionally protected human rights. The future is bleak.
We warned you Islamophobic policies would eventually affect your rights too.
“Case was seen as major test of the first amendment and whether the US could use broad anti-terrorism statute to prosecute leftwing protesters”
I think we have to consider the possibility they’re just fleeing US airspace.
When I was 19, I simply didn’t kill 20 people a day.
The shoot and cry propaganda will never end, they are always the victim
Concentration camps are hard on the guards
I just watched a documentary on him yesterday
“Genocide hurts us more than it hurts the victims of our genocide”
“Soldiers are tormented”

Anyone who works for Tablet magazine is complicit in this *ape denial.
Six years ago today, 26-year-old Breonna Taylor was shot six times and killed by police officers who forced entry into her Louisville, KY apartment. Her death sparked nationwide outrage and calls for an end to police brutality and gun violence against Black people. #SayHerName #BlackLivesMatter
The ADL has been celebrating this war and despicably connecting it to Judaism from the start.
⚠️ The US and Israel are reportedly using Ben Gurion Airport for military purposes—which means they’re using civilians as human shields.
If you don't know anything about Sde Teiman, I wrote about it a bit here (with links to other good reporting): www.bugeyedandshameless.com/p/welcome-to...
We should be completely clear that the consensus of the Western ruling class is that expressing "from the river to sea" is orders of magnitude worse than presiding over a genocide.
This woman was arrested, while the Israeli president recently visited Australia and met the PM without any consequence
The abuse inflicted on Palestinian detainees at Sde Teiman prison — including the murder of a Palestinian doctor — was inhumane. This one case, brought because the abuse was *caught on camera*, was a small sign that rule of law in Israel still worked.
The Israeli government has dropped the case.
“the ongoing war”
By Israel’s war on Iran.
