Israel flattening civilian buildings in southern Lebanon during truce, say commanders

"Trump repeated that sentiment in comments to reporters, saying, 'We don't like a pope who says it's OK to have a nuclear weapon.'"

Oh, REALLY, President Pot...? 😅

Also, you DO know that there's only ONE illegal nuclear weapons state in the region--and that its NOT the #FauxlamicRepublic of Iran, right...? 🤔 #IsraelAtWarCrimes

As much as I hate the prices I just paid at the gas station, im glad to see this fail. For all its flaws and crimes--and there are many!--the #FauxlamicRepublic of Iran is the victim of unprovoked armed aggression, illegal under the UN Charter, that by the aggressors' own admission existentially threatens it and has already killed much of its leadership. Closing the strait is its "nuclear option" to resist this aggression, and the world needs to be grateful for its example, showing that bullies that HAVE nuclear weapons, like Donald Trump’s America and Benjamin Netanyahu's #IsraelAtWarCrimes CANNOT run roughshod over what's left of international law and expect everyone else to just play Melos to their Athens.

China, Russia veto scaled-back Hormuz resolution at UN Security Council

The vote came hours before the US deadline for Iran to reopen the global chokepoint.

AL-MONITOR: The Middle Eastʼs leading independent since 2012

The only rational Iranian position on its nuclear program--when the U.S. launched an illegal & unprovoked all-our war on it after AMERICA, not Iran, tore up the JCPOA--is that Trump's war has convinced it that obtaining nuclear weapons ASAP is now an existential imperative.

And that any negotiation on this point going forward must include AS A PRECONDITION the full nuclear disarmament of the only state HAVING illegal nuclear weapons in the region... #IsraelAtWarCrimes.

May #IsraelAtWarCrimes burn, until they submit in repentance to the One God of Abraham; of Moses, Jesus, and Muhammad, and humbly return (as they have done many times before) to His straight path. 🤲

Hey, BBC...

IRAN DIDN'T START THE WAR.

It's AMERICA AND #ISRAELATWARCRIMES that are holding the world economy hostage, by continuing their illegal attacks ON IRAN.

It's almost like you guys were state-owned media of a complicit nation IN these war crimes--oh, wait.... 🤔

I mean in fairness, #EthnicCleansing is what the whole Zionist project IS ABOUT. #IsraelAtWarCrimes

Hey, great idea! And since THEY didn’t cause the problem in the first place, maybe the best way for them to DO so is, you know, TO STAND UP FOR INTERNATIONAL LAW by siding with the people of Iran against this unprovoked war of aggression by the #Donjjal and #IsraelAtWarCrimes....
