War, Silence, and a Resignation Washington Can’t Easily Dismiss

“I cannot in good conscience support the ongoing war in Iran. Iran posed no imminent threat to our nation, and it is clear that we started this war due to pressure from Israel (Kushner & Witkoff and their $FIVE BILLION $5000000000!!! bribe, see comment below)

> ...he could not support what he described as a war pursued despite the absence of any imminent threat to the United States. His resignation letter directly challenged the rationale behind the conflict and warned that familiar forces of pressure, political calculation, and manufactured urgency were once again driving American policy toward open-ended violence [and plunder, disorder, and #humanInsecurity]... The resignation lands as a warning from history that Washington repeatedly refuses to hear. Wars presented as unavoidable acts of defense almost always arrive wrapped in intelligence claims that collapse under scrutiny, promises of swift victory that dissolve into occupation, and patriotic language used to bury the human cost.

> Joseph Kent, director of the National Counterterrorism Center, stepped down Tuesday, stating in a public resignation letter that Iran posed “no imminent threat” to the United States. He added that he could not support a war he believes was initiated under external pressure, a claim likely to intensify debate over the justification for U.S. involvement.

Israel ‘Wants a Failed State’ in Iran: Ex-Obama Official Slams the War and the Dems’ Weak Response to It

> Politics editor & journalist Mehdi Hasan also presses ‘Pod Save the World’ host Ben Rhodes on his former boss President Obama’s disastrous 2011 invasion of Libya at the intense urging of Hillary Clinton, Susan Rice and Samantha Power — without congressional approval, nor international legal basis, nor any endgame, nor any strategic justification.

#FactChecking Trump's State of the Union Address

No surprise that it amounted to a lengthy stream of boastful fearmongering lies — about #economy, #jobs & #labor, #inflation, #crime, #immigration, #health & #healthCare, with nothing about the two big issues of our time, the #humanInsecurity from which the regime profits, and the #epsteinFiles which it — particularly the #childRapist face/puppet of the regime — evades.

> In the first State of the Union address of his second term, President Donald Trump proclaimed that "our nation is back, bigger, better, richer and stronger than ever before." But our review of his speech found that he distorted a number of facts about the state of the economy, health care, immigration and other topics.
