I told them that Elysium should be in space.

#Iran

Once a tax-free haven attracting social media stars
and countless Brits seeking warm weather and crime-
free streets, Dubai's carefully crafted image has been
shattered and some residents believe it is 'finished'.
Thousands have fled the war-torn city, vowing to
never return as the Islamic Republic sends barrages
of missiles and suicide drones at glitzy skyscrapers
and glamorous five star hotels, even striking the world
famous Fairmont hotel on Palm Jumeirah.

Ancient heritage sites across #Iran damaged by #US - #Israel bombing

“ #Isfahan is not an ordinary city, it’s a museum without a roof. [...] In none of the previous eras, not in the Afghan wars, not in the Moghul conquest, not even during the ‘sacred defence’ [the 1980-88 Iran-Iraq war] was this ever done,” the governor said.

Will @EUCommission @Bundesregierung have the guts to stand up to #Trump and #Netanyahu ?

Remember folks, if you’re against Israeli soldiers sodomising Palestinian prisoners using knives, you’re antisemitic.

Hey, asshole… yeah, you… got an “antizionism” meme for this one? Just leave it in the replies, you sick prick.

Greenpeace warns of ‘disaster waiting to happen’ as 85 large oil tankers lie trapped in the Persian Gulf

A single oil spill in the Gulf could damage this fragile marine habitat beyond repair with devastating consequences for people, animals, and plants in the region, adding to the terrible human toll this illegal war has already taken on local communities.

When the #US & #Israel attacked #Iran, setting off an #energy crisis & raising new #inflation concerns in #FinancialMarkets. The result has been a jump in the yield on government bonds, & falling expectations for #InterestRate cuts later this year. The yield on the 10-year #Treasury note, which acts as a broad reference interest rate that underpins the US #mortgage market, climbed to 4.25% Thursday, up from below 4% before the war began.
