US vassal states like Qatar already supported regime change in Iran.

If you really want to know, I’m sure there are medical journal articles and scientific research papers on why the “hate.”

He’s a slave in the same sense that almost all of us are: a wage slave. What sets him apart is that he’s also a fool for giving his former master months of free labor.

Eyes Left podcast: A Guide to Getting Out of the US Military (Now) w/ the GI Rights Hotline

It's much easier than the Pentagon wants you to think. Whether you're in the military or know someone who is, this is the definitive guide to walking away. And as Biden's support for genocide spins out into new US wars across the Middle East, from the Red Sea to Iraq, now would be a good time to walk away.

Featuring special guest Maria Santelli, longtime counselor with the GI Rights Hotline, which provides secure, free and expert support to any service member who wants to leave the military.

CALL the hotline anytime at 1-877-447-4487 for advice, or visit them online at https://girightshotline.org/

Maria is Executive Director of the Center on Conscience and War: https://centeronconscience.org/ GI Rights Hotline

I don’t know the state of things now, but a few days ago Iran had severed its internet due to cyberattacks related to the war.

Not only does Pakistan have weapons to reach Israel, it has nuclear weapons to reach it.

Also, Pakistan borders Iran, which means together they could move such weapons much closer to Israel.

Power aside, Iran is also a major exporter in nuclear medicine & medical equipment.

I’m not stabbing this man, I’m stabbing this man’s liver.

:illegal-to-say:

Iran’s stockpile is still within the bounds allowed under the nonproliferation treaty that Iran, the US, and all but five UN states are party to. And given what the US and Israel have been up to in West & Central Asia over the last 23 years, why wouldn’t that public taboo have been broken?

Tell me you learned nothing from the Iraq War without telling me you learned nothing from the Iraq War.

Chris Hedges: War Deja Vu | The lies told to ignite the war with Iraq have been resurrected to ignite a war with Iran. The assessments of intelligence agencies and international bodies are dismissed, replaced by hallucinations.

Despite Western war propaganda to the contrary, Russia doesn’t presently have expansionist ambitions. Previously. Previously. Previously.

What do propose the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran should do about it?

The reason that our media have incessantly repeated Iran-backed this, Iran-controlled that for decades is to convince us that Iran is the big bad guy behind the small bad guys terrorizing good guy Israel.

By now it should be obvious that Israel never was the good guy. Israel is a US-backed genocidal, fascist, settler-colonial state seeking Lebensraum for a Greater Israel. And the supposed “bad guys” have just been trying to survive under threat the of the small imperialist state, Israel, a state which only exists thanks to significant, continued support from the big imperialist state, the US.

That is why Iran accurately, metaphorically calls the US the “Great Satan” and Israel the “Small Satan”.

No, they didn’t. The Did you learn nothing from the Iraq War?
