This is one of the most sick, twisted, depraved massacres yet. Israel fired tank shells into a crowd of starving people waiting for food, killing over 50. They're not even denying it.

There is literally nobody in the world other than American neocons and pro-Israel warmongers who would say: Just because you want to bomb a country and forcibly change its government doesn't mean you have to know basic facts about that country. Just bomb and check later.

Tucker didn’t ask him to name 5 great poets from Persian history. He didn’t ask him when the Umayyad caliphate ended. He asked him what the population of the country was. The only reason that sounds “sophomoric” is because in the U.S. we don’t expect our leaders to have even the

the dismissal of the populations of major countries as trivia when we’re talking about engaging them militarily is an indictment of American education Cruz went to Princeton and Harvard

Focus on Iran has let Israel off the leash in Gaza. Hundreds of people were waiting for food, and the IDF dropped two bombs into the middle of the crowd. Tanks fired at the fleeing people as snipers picked them off. At least 72 now confirmed dead. They’re barely even bothering to

What Cruz’s ignorance reveals is that to him Iran isn’t a real place filled with actual people. The Iranians being blown up are just NPCs in a video game. The whole country is just some dark malevolent force from Lord of the Rings.

Vowing to starve a population of 2 million people by blockading food, then starving them for months, then giving the facade of aid because you admit you're forced to by international opinion, then using aid centers daily to massacre civilians seeking food, is a new kind of evil.

Trump created the problem. The single reason Iran was so close to obtaining a nuclear weapon is that Trump destroyed the diplomatic agreement that put major, verifiable constraints on their nuclear program.

If the world is interested in secret nuclear programs in the Middle East, there is a country that doesn’t allow ANY IAEA inspectors: It’s Israel.

There’s actually not a huge negotiating difference between the Iranians and the U.S. government. The U.S. wants no nuclear weapon or high level enrichment, the Iranians agree to no weapon but want a symbolic amount of low level enrichment under international monitoring. It’s

It’s hard enough to believe that anyone listens to Bill Kristol about politics or the national debt after being so epically wrong and dishonest on Iraq. That anyone would give him an ounce of credibility on another regime change war in the Middle East over alleged WMDs is

1) Six atomic bombs worth of explosives have been dropped on an area both smaller and more populated than Hiroshima. The death toll is an undercount 2) You have to go back to Vietnam to find an equivalent atrocity carried out by the U.S. empire. That’s 50 years, not 2.

Trump again provides a clear historical link to George W. Bush’s invasion of Iraq by dismissing clear intelligence indicating that Iran was not on the verge of weaponizing its nuclear program.
