#Trump seems to suggest the #US is ferrying #oil out of the #StraitOfHormuz
Trump seemed to say that “millions of barrels of oil” have been secreted past #Iran forces in the Strait, helping to ease #energy price pressures [if so, it’s not working].

In a black-&-white video accompanying the statement, a small object can be seen slamming into the back of the ship before a large explosion erupts. Afterwards, the video zooms out, & the ship is seen floating, but with smoke billowing from the back.

#Trump told reporters in the Oval Office that the US would be striking #Iran again on Wednesday after a helicopter collision with an Iranian drone.
“We’re going to hit them again hard today,” Trump said. He wouldn’t say if he planned to follow through on threats he made earlier in the #war to attack bridges & #utilities.
He urged Iran to sign a deal with the #US, saying “we were really close to a deal but they keep tapping us along.”
#Iran says the US bombed 3 of its #water #reservoirs
Water supply to thousands of residents was cut off on Wednesday after two reservoirs in the city of #Sirik were damaged by a US strike, acc/to Hashem Amini, the head of the state-owned National Water & Wastewater Engineering Company, & the head of the local water company.
Iran’s state media published a video of what it said was a damaged water reservoir in southern Iran.

The US Apache helicopter was in Iranian airspace when it was hit.
Has this simple fact been mentioned in any of the mainstream western media reporting on this latest round of escalation? Perhaps, but I haven't seen it.
A few days ago, Israel did not respond to Iranian aggression with a counter strike (as most mainstream media sources framed it). Iran was responding to Israel's ongoing aggression in southern Lebanon over the last few months, where the Israeli military has been bulldozing dozens of villages, killing well over 3,000 people (predominantly civilians), wounding more than ten thousand people, targeting (once more) medical facilities and first responders, displacing over 20% of the population, while announcing plans to make their occupation permanent. And Iran was responding specifically to Israel once more bombing a densely-populated part of Beirut.
For decades, western media have consistently misrepresented the aggressors (US-Israel) as the victims. Whenever one of the targets of their illegal expansionist/imperialist violence retaliates, this response/defence is treated as the originating act of aggression and (retrospective) _casus belli_.
History didn't start yesterday.

IHRA : définition opérationnelle ou instrument de confusion ?
La définition IHRA de l’antisémitisme n’est pas une définition juridique, mais un outil opérationnel devenu politiquement extensif. Le problème : elle brouille la frontière entre haine des Juifs, critique d’Israël, occupation, colonialisme et résistance palestinienne. #Antisemitism #IHRA #HumanRights #InternationalLaw La définition opérationnelle de l’antisémitisme proposée par l’IHRA soulève un problème de…
