It’s not disingenuous to point out that the NYT did not run a single front page story of the Minab bombing. You don’t dispute this claim because it’s true. And the story that you reference on your webpage does not attribute blame to US/Israel and frames it as an allegation by “Iranian state media”

So let me get this straight ...

1. US bombs Iran
2. Oil price goes up a bit, benefitting Russia's petrostate
3. Russia gives Iran targeting info
4. Oil price shoots WAY up
5. US unsanctions Russian oil

Investors are not ready for a true shock The consensus view of the impact of the Iran war on equities and bonds may well prove too sanguine

WHAT. A. DAY in finance and geopolitics.

"Stocks wobbled, bonds tumbled, the dollar snapped its losing streak, oil prices sprang higher and natural gas went whoosh. But investors are not bracing for disaster."

Israel's System of Segregated Roads in the Occupied Palestinian Territories

How dare you call this segregation btw

you do not in fact have to take the side of israel in their war of choice against iran which has thus far involved blowing up fmr and current civilian officials, public infrastructure, schools, and hospitals because they have a better track record on gay rights than iran

Analysis Suggests School Was Hit Amid U.S. Strikes on Iranian Naval Base

The 1968 My Lai massacre killed at least 347 civilians. It led to congressional hearings and criminal trials. The bombing of the #Minab school, if confirmed to be an American airstrike, is a comparable massacre and scandal. A dark day in American history.

The American political class is utterly delusional, adrift in a dream of normality, unable to process the actual reality of events on the ground, where the US just launched a completely unprovoked war against a massive country, murdered its leadership, and demanded its conversion to a vassal state.

At least 13 hospitals and health facilities hit during attacks on Iran, WHO says Global health body investigating reports that four medics are among the 1,230 people killed in Iran since start of war

The US and Israel have bombed at least 13 hospitals and health facilities in Iran and one in Lebanon.

This is not only incredibly weak, its false equivalence between Farage and Polanski is dangerous. One of them is a threat to liberal democracy, the other one is not. The text is a prime example of how radical centrism and the profound arrogance of self-declared liberals legitimize the far right

I too remember the earlier, woke wars. tons of spent microaggression munitions strewn about everywhere, friends crying out for God as they were slowly cancelled...look, if you weren't there, you'll never understand

Every single person in the entire chain of command that massacred the schoolgirls in Minab, and that is currently carpet bombing Iranian civilians, needs to be tried and jailed in The Hague. Sick, depraved monsters drunk on imperial hubris.

Quite an opening paragraph.

Trita Parsi on American Prestige here, and yes: clearly, various Israel hawks slithered up to Trump, telling him - You only need to demonstrate your power Sire, then the enemy shall cringe in terror before your magnificence! You shall be the mightiest conqueror, everyone is saying it, more and more

Wars are extremely hard things to justify. It is intrinsic to what they are that they tend to death, destruction, and misery. Given this and some knowledge of history, one's default attitude towards powerful people purporting to do the world some great benefit by war should be extreme scepticism.

There is absolutely zero explanation for hitting targets like this unless your objective is to destroy any possibility of normal life and produce mass civilian death. Completely unjustifiable and another war crime. We saw this thirty years ago in Iraq.

I think one of the most staggering industry shifts in my 16 years as a tech reporter is that it’s not become a question of “should our product help the government kill and/or surveil people?” but “to what extent?”
