The US and UK created the Islamic Republic by having their spy agencies depose a popular democratically leader and emplacing a puppet dictator. All because he thought Iranian oil should belong to the Iranian people not US and UK oil companies.

They're going to write books about all the big brain moves of this gang of imbeciles and among them will be "Spending a year trying to kill renewable energy and then launching a war that sends oil prices soaring"

Or, perhaps, intended to trigger nuke fears to keep the rest of the world quiet. Shitbags are running the USA.

There IS no good news, you idiots!
The US has ruined everything, everywhere, without regard for the consequences.
You are welcome to destroy your society but you didn't have to take the whole world with you.
And your Christofascists can burn forever in whatever version of hell they believe in.

β€œSocial media disinformation is why Donald Trump is president, and Big Tech has made it clear that they’ll happily continue to lick Trump’s boots as he drives America off a cliff.

People who don't already hate the USA soon will.

If there’s a country that needs a regime change, it’s the United States.

Each day there is something new to enrage us. Unbelievable and, yet, unsurprising. The only way to fight the overwhelm is to focus on one thing at a time. For me, it's keeping my country out of the war

Thanks for the memory. I went through a phase of reinterpreting rock/pop music as jazz songs and picked it for a workshop. I think what's special is that the lyrics are, simultaneously, clear and vague. Performer and listener each create a story unique to their own experience and current state.

But when you act like a brainless yob, people will believe the worst about you, even if it's not true. "Hmmm. Sounds like something he'd say."

"Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed."

Come on, Minister.
You should also condemn the USA's illegal, unwarranted and dangerous first strike.
Yes, get Canadians out. But there's no need to take sides in a war we want no part of.

Also NATO countries: You started it. Sorry.

Exploring my anti-Americanism: Cuban Missile Crisis. Civil rights violence. Vietnam War. Travelling with Yanks afraid of anything foreign. Watching them as fellow expats. Noticing transactional, "win at all costs" approach. And bossy!
They earned my disdain and fear long before Trump and aftermath.

Anyone who looks good on camera and can read a teleprompter can be a "talking head" (news anchor). Almost none of them are actual journalists. Actual journalism doesn't fly with the popcorn eaters who just want to be entertained.
(I learned that working in TV news.)
