Not In Our Name
The US and Israel drag us into more bloodshed
The US and Israel have declared “war” on Iran?
Less of a war, more just the US and Israel illegally attacking yet another country.
It’s the usual predictable US propaganda tale, with darker-skinned people painted as terrorists, and “the West” as good guys (even though pretty much every Western nation is founded on genocide and settler colonialism: UK, US, Canada, Australia etc).
And governments which are run by Trump-sycophants (such as the UK) are supporting the US in its war crimes.
The other day 167 girls, aged 7 to 12, were massacred at an elementary school in Iran by the US and Israel. It is the greatest atrocity committed by the United States since the Vietnam War. And it is the largest mass killing of schoolgirls ever recorded in world history. And yet our propaganda papers still won’t point out that the US and Israel are the terrorists.

A friend of mine wrote this.
“‘Insane’ is not a particularly useful term, nonetheless, I think we would all agree that Donald Trump is now completely unhinged. While he is not the first psychopath to occupy the White House, previous incumbents (Nixon, Reagan, Bush Snr. & Jnr.) were at least contained by the machine and pursued a quasi-logical (from the perspective of US imperialism) foreign policy. Trump’s murderous actions over the last year have largely been determined by personal whim and a vainglorious compulsion to satisfy a dangerously overvalued ego.
“Israel and the US are now completely rogue states, bombing, killing, and effecting regime change with impunity; completely unchecked by any supposed ‘international order.’ Starmer, Macron et al have been nauseating in their obsequiousness. Yesterday’s actions mean we now live at the most dangerous juncture of the last century; certainly since the Cuban Missile Crisis, because neither Israel or the US can stop killing. How long before these maniacs feel empowered to use nuclear weapons? Iran has announced the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, one of the most important shipping channels in the world and through which one fifth of global oil supplies pass. International shipping insurers are announcing they will no longer insure vessels in the region. This has the potential to crash the world economy and precipitate the gravest financial slump since 1929- which led directly to the rise of Hitler and World War Two.”
It’s an excellent summary.

It goes from extremely bad to terrifyingly awful.
