UK prime minister granted US the permission to use their air bases for: ”Limited defensive opetations”.

Immediately B-52 and B-2 bombers landed there.

… sure, trust me bro, these devices purpose-built for carpet-bombing, will kill Iranian civilians entirely defensively!

A transcontinental heavy bomber aircraft literally has no defensive uses. Are the British really this stupid? Is everybody stupid? Or is Starmer just as much post-truth as Trump? 🤔

[NYTimes-Gifted article]: How Trump and His Advisers Miscalculated Iran’s Response to War By Mark Mazzetti, Tyler Pager and Edward Wong Reporting from Washington

In the lead-up to the U.S.-Israeli attack, President Trump downplayed the risks to the energy markets as a short-term concern that should not overshadow the mission to decapitate the Iranian regime.

NYT Iran Has a New Supreme Leader. What Does That Mean?

"Trump just put in charge of Iran a guy considered to be a hardliner *before* we killed his father, mother, and wife. We helped cement his rule by blowing up a girls elementary school, scorching their skies, and cutting off their water. We should expect retaliation—and blame Republicans for it."

"Israeli settlers have shot dead five civilians during invasions of Palestinian olive groves, villages and grazing land, in the brief period since Israel and the US launched a new war on Iran at the end of February. A sixth person died on Saturday after inhaling military-grade tear gas used by the Israeli army."

"Beirutification” should become a word if it is not already. By that, I mean the slow normalisation of periodic attacks on a city by a capricious and violent state, until blasts and death become woven into the fabric of urban life. It is urban death by a thousand knives. It is the suffocation of imagination and the thwarting of any civil attempt at a better life, and the gradual dilapidation of a nation to the point where it can no longer stand again"

"Lindsey Graham yesterday: this is a religious war. My name is Lindsey Graham. I love women. No, I just disagree. What he actually said was, quote, 'This is a religious war and we will determine the course of the Middle East for a thousand years.'"

"When church and state overlap, brutality follows, and justice bends with the whip. ...

Religious extremism has taken Iran back to the seventh century, yet somehow, even as Trump tries to topple Iran’s brutal theocracy, his Christian Nationalists can’t see that their own agenda leads to the same place."

#Spain firmly rejects #Trump camp claim that it now supports US- #Israel war on #Iran

Foreign Minister Albares:

"Our 'no to war' stance remains clear and unequivocal.

I’m the Foreign Minister of Spain and I’m telling [them] that our position hasn’t changed at all"
