“A large-scale military assault”
Just kills a lot of innocent folks.😮
Just ask Putin how air assault
Is just murder till you’re broke.

“A report by the National Intelligence Council completed before the United States and Israel launched attacks on Iran predicted that even a large-scale military assault on the country would be unlikely to topple its theocratic government, according to U.S. officials”

Left: Black-and-white 1860s portrait of Louisa May Alcott seated at a small table, wearing a dark Victorian dress with a high collar and ribbon tie. Her hair is pulled back and up neatly, and she gazes calmly to the side with a thoughtful expression. Right: Modern paperback cover of Little Women by Louisa May Alcott (Signet Classics edition). Four young women in colorful 19th-century dresses and shawls stand arm-in-arm on a grassy hill, seen from behind, with the title in elegant blue lettering and "LOUISA MAY ALCOTT" in white at the bottom.
American novelist and poet Louisa May Alcott died #OTD in 1888.
Alcott’s most enduring work is the novel 𝘓𝘪𝘵𝘵𝘭𝘦 𝘞𝘰𝘮𝘦𝘯 (first published in 2 parts in 1868 & 1869). Never out of print, it has sold millions of copies worldwide in 50+ languages. #booksky #fiction #WomensHistoryMonth #WHM
At times of uncertainty, governments that are committed to human rights and international humanitarian law need to walk the talk.
Unfortunately, Europe’s initial response on US/Israel's strikes on #Iran and retaliatory strikes has been characterized by double standards, and hypocrisy.

That's Noem, Lewandowski, and Bovino out.
Wannabe fascists, perhaps, but you are not living in a fascist country. Public pressure, embarassment, legislative opposition - all of them helped to turf these folks. That's what I mean by "the levers of democracy still work and you should use them."
BREAKING: Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem will be replaced with GOP Senator Markwayne Mullin, President Trump says.
Wow! That was fast! 💨
Mullin? Yes, sufficiently daft.

Looks like Noem
May lose her D.C. home! 😢
And be deported (ha!)
Back to South Dakota. 🥶

Black-and-white formal portrait of Alva Myrdal (1902–1986), the Swedish diplomat, sociologist, politician, and Nobel Peace Prize laureate. She is photographed against a dark background, resting her chin thoughtfully on her left hand, which displays a large, ornate ring. Her expression is calm, wise, and slightly introspective, with deep-set eyes, fine lines of age, and a gentle smile. Her silver-gray hair is styled in a soft, voluminous updo typical of the mid-20th century, and she wears a dark tailored jacket or dress with a simple collar, along with a distinctive metal wristwatch on her left arm. Alva Myrdal was a pioneering figure in social policy, women's rights, and international disarmament. With her husband Gunnar Myrdal, she co-authored the influential 1934 book Kris i befolkningsfrågan (Crisis in the Population Question), which shaped Sweden's progressive family and welfare policies. She served as Sweden's Minister for Disarmament and Church Affairs (1966–1973), headed UNESCO's social science department, and played a key role in the United Nations. In 1982, she shared the Nobel Peace Prize with Alfonso García Robles for her lifelong work on nuclear disarmament and peace advocacy through organizations like the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI) and Pugwash Conferences. Known for her intellectual rigor, feminist principles, and commitment to global justice, she remains an icon of principled leadership in diplomacy and social reform.#AlvaMyrdal #NobelPeacePrize #Disarmament #SIPRI

Shot her down.

As if they silenced her renown!
Ten men with guns
Can’t kill one
Woman with guts.

If Twump goes to war with Spain
I hope Republicans complain:
“That’s it, Don! The final straw!
You didn’t get our permission!
But since we’re in another war
We wish you luck & praise the mission!”

Donald Trump's illegal war with Iran has already cost $2 BILLION. Americans don't want another endless war.
We should be funding health care not warfare.

But then I sigh, and, with a piece of scripture,
Tell them that God bids us do good for evil:
And thus I clothe my naked villainy
With odd old ends stol’n forth of holy writ,
And seem a saint, when most I play the devil.
Stock market dropping like bombs
On children and on palms 🌴🌴🌴
