So when some retired Army general labels a routine crisis footing “extremely unusual” or some egghead Tom Friedman equates it to a Cuban Missile Crisis-level decision, don’t believe the hype.
“We were told [by Iran] that it’s going to be a limited response,” an unnamed member of Iraq’s parliament who reportedly has close ties to Iranian-backed militias told The Washington Post, explaining that Tehran “doesn’t want to expand the war.”

War With Iran Imminent?

Three ways you’re being misled

Ken Klippenstein


Jill stein- the U.S. is a full partner in  the genocide in Palestine and allowed it to expand with impunity. People opposed to genocide and expanding conflict in the Middle East are alarmed by the cozy relationship between the U.S. and Israel. We should not be providing weapons for genocide and certainly not for this to be expanded into a regional war.

US, Europe warn Hezbollah to ease strikes on Israel

U.S., European and Arab mediators are pressing to keep stepped-up cross-border attacks between Israel and Lebanon’s Hezbollah militants from spiraling into a wider Middle East war that the world has feared for months. Hopes are lagging for a cease-fire in Israel’s conflict with Hamas in Gaza that would calm attacks by Hezbollah and other Iranian-allied militias. With that in mind, American and European diplomats are warning Hezbollah about taking on the military might of Israel. Escalating strikes between Israel and Hezbollah appeared to at least level off this past week. But a former U.S. diplomat in the Middle East says Israelis still seem to be arranging themselves for “an entirely different magnitude of conflict.”

In reality the US empire has marched along in all its usual depravity despite its official leader having Swiss cheese for a brain this entire time. They got their genocide in Gaza and their world-threatening proxy war against Russia, as well as China policy that is vastly more hawkish than that of Biden’s predecessors. The imperial murder machine hasn’t skipped a beat in its nonstop campaign of steadily increasing global tyranny.

Really Think About What It Means That The US President Has Dementia

Listen to a reading of this article (reading by Tim Foley): It’s very revealing how everybody’s focusing on what Biden’s dementia-addled debate performance says about his ability to win re-election instead of on the fact that the current, sitting president of the United States has dementia.

The penalty of non compliance is that they won’t pay for the student to learn the hasbara of why you can’t graduate for protesting genocide: The measure comes amid a resurgence of mandatory military service being considered and reinstated by other European nations.

Congress is weighing automatic registration for wartime draft

American men ages 18 to 25 could be automatically signed up for the draft with a measure making its way through Congress.

Task & Purpose

So let me get this straight: it’s completely unreasonable for Putin to have concerns about NATO putting missile bases on Russia’s doorstep, but we must start World War III to stop Russia being on NATO’s doorstep? It seems to me the people who were outraged about Ukraine being called a buffer zone are upset that Ukraine is no longer a buffer zone.
NATO already has its new propaganda line: self-defence is not an escalation, it’s a right.

The court had found the humanitarian situation in Rafah is now "disastrous" and has "deteriorated further" since the ICJ issued its last order to Israel in March.
The court ordered Israel to "open the Rafah crossing for unhindered provision at scale of urgently needed basic services and humanitarian assistance."

ICJ Orders Israel to 'Immediately Halt Its Military Offensive' in Rafah | Common Dreams

Defense lawyers for Israel did not convince the International Court of Justice that the ongoing evacuation operation in the southern Gaza city had enhanced "the security of civilians."

Common Dreams

security minister Itamar Ben-Gvir used to spend his time beating up Palestinians and was convicted of inciting racism and support for terrorism in 2007. Imagine calling the people you illegally occupy “terrorists” when you have a literal terrorist in your government.

Defending Israel would be the worst possible reason for starting World War III

Obviously, there is no good reason, but this would be the worst...
