Iranian Dies in ICE Custody as Trump Administration Bombs Iran

Iranian Dies in ICE Custody as Trump Administration Bombs Iran - Lemmygrad
>While the current régime has justified the illegal war in Iran by claiming it
is making the country safe for democracy, Iranians under the régime’s care
suffer from unjust detention and threats of deportation to a country that in
many cases would be likely to kill them. > >On March 6, ICE reported the death
of Pejman Karshenas Najafabadi, a 59-year-old Iranian man who had lived in the
US for 35 years. Najafabadi died of heart failure 9 days after being booked into
an ICE facility in Louisiana, despite ICE itself having records of his chronic
illness going back over a decade. > >Ryan Costello of the National
Iranian-American Counsel states, “We have received reports of deplorable
conditions… at ICE detention facilities, including those where [Najafabadi] was
detained… We know that some detained Iranians who did not face the prospect of
retaliation from the Iranian government willingly chose deportation back to Iran
in recent months rather than continue to be detained in such awful conditions.”
Other Iranians, including a same-sex couple, do face retaliation from Iran’s
government, and are therefore stuck between two horrific options. (Taken from an
email sent to me by Never Again Action.)
Afghan asylum-seeker dies in ICE custody

Apolitical - Lemmygrad
>Mohammed Nazir Paktyawal became the 12th person (at least) to die in ICE
detention in the first three months of 2026, leaving behind a wife, six
children, and a pending asylum case that will now never be resolved. > >We
highlight Paktyawal’s case because of the unique way that the Trump-Miller
régime betrayed him. He came to the U.S. for safety after working with the
military in his native Afghanistan. The operation that brought Paktyawal and his
family to the U.S. was specifically designed to help protect Afghans who had
aided the U.S. from retaliation when the Taliban took over. The racism,
Islamophobia and xenophobia of the current régime and ICE/DHS runs so deep that
Trump, Stephen Miller and company are flagrantly betraying their own allies in
their attempt at ethnic cleansing. (Taken from an email sent to me by Never
Again Action.)

Seattle and nearby cities move to block ICE detention centers - Lemmygrad
>Seattle has taken proactive measures to curb the U.S. government and the
corporations it contracts with to build ICE detention centers in the greater
Seattle area. > >This month, the Seattle city council passed a one year
emergency moratorium on expanding detention centers or building new ones within
its city limits. At least four cities in the area have also passed similar
measures. These ordinances come after DHS submitted a presolicitation proposal
for the expansion of ICE detention in the Seattle area. > >Lawmakers in the
greater Seattle area are attempting to do their due diligence to keep ICE
detention out of their jurisdictions, before contractors have inked deals with
the U.S. government. (Taken from an email sent to me by Never Again Action.)
Top architecture firm won’t design more ICE prisons after employees revolt

Top architecture firm won’t design more ICE prisons after employees revolt - Lemmygrad
>One of the largest architecture firms in the world, DLR Group, has responded to
a revolt from the ranks of its own employees by swearing off any new work with
ICE. Though the firm endorsed the idea of “humane design” of detention
facilities, working on contract with CoreCivic to rehabilitate Diamondback
Correctional Facility in Watonga, Oklahoma convinced an overwhelming number of
employees that the very idea is a contradiction in terms. > >Architects and
engineers throughout the firm revolted at the possibility of completing the work
on Diamontback or accepting further contracts for detention facilities.
According to one of them, “By the time I got to ‘This isn’t even our first
detention center,’ that’s when the cold sweat hits. One of my greatest fears in
life—and this is going to sound dramatic—but I don’t want to be one of the
people in the village who said they didn’t know. This has turned me into one of
those people. I am now actively profiting off making people disappear.” > >DLR
has long worked on building prisons. In the short term, management has conceded:
“We will not do work to expand the portfolio of facilities that private
providers own and operate with a fiduciary interest in promoting actions that
increase the use of incarceration.” Courageous DLR workers are standing by to
make sure that management stays the course. (Taken from an email sent to me by

Populace now views apartheid régime more negatively than positively, poll finds - Lemmygrad
>American voters now view Israel more negatively than positively, according to a
new poll by NBC News that adds to a growing body of surveys demonstrating
eroding support for the country in recent years. > >The poll, published on
Monday by NBC News
[https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2026-election/poll-israels-standing-plummets-democrats-fueling-primaries-left-rcna262995],
found that among registered American voters today, 39% view Israel negatively
while 32% view it positively. > >The survey’s findings marked a decline in
positive views held by Americans for Israel since NBC News conducted a similar
survey November 2023, which found that 24% viewed the country negatively
compared to 47% positively. > >The new poll was conducted between Feb. 27 and
March 3, during the beginning of the current war with Iran, and surveyed 1,000
registered voters nationally. > >The poll also found that, beyond declines
across the board, views of Israel remain sharply divided along partisan lines,
with most Democrats holding negative views and most Republicans expressing
positive ones. > >Among Democrats, the poll found that 57% viewed Israel
negatively, compared to just 13% who viewed the country positively, a
significant drop from 34% who held positive views in 2023. For independents, 48%
expressed a negative view, while 21% held a positive one. > >But positive views
of Israel among Republicans also declined between 2023 to 2026, according to the
survey, falling from 63% to 54%. > >Waning support for Israel, and increasingly
bipartisan [https://www.jta.org/?p=1897866] disapproval of the war in Iran, has
loomed large over the primary elections, with candidates increasingly spurning
the support [https://www.jta.org/?p=1898021] of the American Israel Public
Affairs Committee and sharpening their criticism
[https://www.jta.org/?p=1897794] of the country. > >The new poll comes weeks
after a second national poll [https://www.jta.org/?p=1897493] found that
Americans sympathized more with Palestinians than with Israelis. > >The NBC News
poll found divided sympathies, with 40% of voters saying they sympathized more
with Israelis while 39% sympathizing more with Palestinians. The margin of error
was 3.1 percentage points.

“Trump, you’re a useless piece of shit. I voted for you three times. Apparently,
I’m an idiot.” At gas stations across the US, Trump voters are hurling insults
at him after his brutal aggression against Iran caused fuel prices to skyrocket.
Fascism and nationalism only bring misery and war, and some of its brutalized
