"Howard tied us to America so tightly, it would take a world-altering event to unshackle us. The tragic truth is though, even then, we would probably be on Americaβs side, even if it meant our own destruction," writes @amyremeikis.bsky.social.

The crazier thing about this is that before Israel attacked Iran, there was finally the *slightest* shift in the way Canada and other states started to check Israel.
Apparently all they had to do to stop that was literally start bombing more brown people in a different place.

"WH apparently did not realize that starting a war with Iran *with strikes aiming to remove the regime from power* would trigger Iranian action against Hormuz and regional energy infrastructure.
They directly threatened this regime's survival.

Corporate Media Buries Story of US and Israel Killing 168 in Girls School Attack
No front-page stories in NYT, WSJ, WaPo. No mention on NBC and CBS Sunday Shows. No stand alone segments on Evening News shows. A death count on par with the OKC bombing is relegated to the back page.
I wrote about how the US and Israel carried out an attack on an Iranian girls school on par with the OKC bombing and US media relegated it to a back page story. No stand alone evening news segments, no front page stories, it made A11 in the NYT then everyone moved on.

if you were to write a prophecy of the future back in 2000 that "in 2026, President Donald John Trump has launched a war on Iran with Israel after previously attempting a coup to stay in power in 2020", people would think you've gone insane

Buildings in central Israel damaged in strike barrage: Report
Citing emergency services, Haaretz is reporting damage to multiple buildings across central Israel amid a fresh wave of Iranian strikes.
Journalists at AFP, meanwhile, reported the sound of two waves of simultaneous explosions in Tel Aviv shortly after 21:00 GMT.
Sirens continued to ring in Tel Aviv, central Israel and the occupied West Bank, Haaretz said.
The thing about interceptor missiles is that they run out.
The thing about drones is they are cheap.
