U.S. and Israeli forces bombed Iran on Saturday amid ongoing peace talks between Iran and the U.S. Explosions could be heard across Tehran. In a statement, Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz declared a "special and permanent state of emergency" across Israel. The Israeli government described its attack as "preemptive." Several news organizations reported that Israel
What did Trump say recently? Something like: “I have no need for international law. The only thing that can stop me is my own morality.” (Obviously, the wrong words, because he doesn’t speak that well, but the same meaning.) We all know what his morality is like. He’s OK with fucking little girls, and, possibly, killing them. The only morals he has is doing things to benefit himself.
There were multiple instances. I remember… I think it was Isikoff, asking “are you celebrating” or something to that effect. The only thing stopping universal praise was how scared people were it would start a war. That’s currently starting.
Hmm maybe, don’t know much about him personally(but probably do his work) I just remember TV media pundits, especially the so called anti Trump media pundits, having an orgasm on TV over bombing on Syria I think.
Oh, yeah, that one definitely happened. The minute it looked like Trump was gonna play ball on their plans for Syria, the entire foreign policy apparatus stopped giving a shit about anything else he did.
disagree. What Israel did to the palestinians has meaning and is legally defined globally as war crimes. I am not willing to say those laws and global agreements have no real meaning.
I hate to disagree, but laws and rules have no actual meaning if there isn’t an enforcement mechanism. Considering how long Israel and the US have been committing war crimes without even the lightest of punishment for those in charge, whatever enforcement is in place is obviously insufficient.
Trump did this last term too, we killed their intelligence chief when he landed for peace talks with Iraq.
This is a war crime, BTW. Attacking someone under a perceived state of truce or ceasefire is called “perfidy”.

And was, IIRC, widely praised for it by the pundit class.
I still remember 2017, when Donald decided to drop the MOAB on Afghanistan and Fareed Zakaria praised him effusively on CNN.
Guess he learned the lesson.
I think the “beauty of our weapons” and “Trump became president today” was a different instance from the Soleimani killing.

Honestly gladdens me to know I’m not the only one who remembers this from 2017.
War crimes don’t mean anything. It is a cudgel the victor uses to do more damage after they win.

I will agree if anyone gets convicted for any of it. I am not that hopeful
