War is the opiate of the Israeli masses
Israel has once again entered war to solve its “existential problems once and for all”. History suggests those promises of total victory rarely survive contact with reality.
Israel is an apartheid state; peace in West Asia is far off
Gideon Levy speaks about Israel’s decapitation strategy, the status of the Palestine question and the scope for peace with Iran.
The lies that fuel war
The Albanese government’s support for the US–Israel war on Iran rests on claims about nuclear threat, humanitarian intent and non-involvement that do not withstand scrutiny.
Quote
One Labor backbencher made the claim that this war on Iran was to give the Iranian people "the opportunity to determine their own future, free from brutality, fear and blackmail." Even as he spoke, the bodies of over 100 school girls were being dragged from the rubble in Minab following a US airstrike.
Over the coming days, 18 hospitals and health facilities have been targeted and bombed, oil reserves have been hit and are spewing toxic air into Tehran. The Iranian people now face the brutality and fear of a vicious Israeli and US bombing campaign.
I went down this rabbit hole. Zionists and Trumpites are claiming that Iran has been leveled with 5000 targets hit on the first day or some such abomination. Their claim tries to repackage their murderous realities into obscurity by saying the enemy is annihilated. That there is no more enemy. That they are all gone. So nothing to see here, move on. That is what they want from you. How you should think and how you should act. Do not give it to them.
It is diabolical to understand that the US military has a detailed target list and be fine with the knowledge, but that aside, the 5000 targets seem to have been collected over decades with a target list out of date leading to school and hospitals being blown up.
The war hawks own argument of total devastation is also and admission of impotence. Targets aged into irrelevance on a hard disk like fine wine turning to vinegar with the passage of years. Yes there was massive destruction, but what was really achieved. What are Iran's remaining capabilities. The war hawks don't know. They did not have to know because they have TECHNOLOGY so good that failure could not possibly be a real concern for them. MAGA brain will not tolerate a Debbie Downer and they have AI to fix their mistakes. And morality is so yesterday.
And they have TECHNOLOGY so good that Cuba is being blockaded at the same time. Trump intends to steal the island. Fooling everybody he was going for Greenland he was, when actually Trump was thinking Cuba would be a great upgrade from Mar-A-Lago. A great place for the next Trump property. All he has to do is convince the Cubans to make a deal.
