FWIW: Israel would not have attacked Iran if the US refused support.

And their greed & need for power.... desirous of slaves to do their bidding.... And so it goes. It has all been seen before.

Israel is bombarding, literally bombarding, two Middle East capitals, Beirut and Tehran, killing 100s of civilians, and yet the US and UK media continue to portray Iran as the threat to the region. Israel has nukes, but Iran is the nuclear threat. We live in Orwellian times.

Who knew.....? And their ignorance harms so many others.

Trump’s calculation is that if he settles a whole lot of old US grudges people will forget about the Epstein Files. Venezuela, Iran and now Cuba. He’s wrong no one will forget and no one will forgive.

First the Caribbean fishing boats, then this......

I hadn't picked up on this but the US is basically killing Cuba while we all watch Iran.

"Gangster imperialism".... Says a lot......

What we see here is Donald Trump, acting as he always does, as a global chaos generator. The further we stand away from that, the better off we will be. Well said @georgemonbiot.bsky.social 👏 #bbcqt #IranWar

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marie_C... Come on @support.bsky.team do the right thing!

Hi David Can anyone please explain the terms of "whatever gas contract" was signed by John Howard >30 years ago? Tell us the "terms". Please... It must be ongoing to "eternity"!!?? No journo is telling us. It cannot be that hard. We need retain gas for domestic use, then tax the exports. #auspol

No words to describe the deranged behaviour from #Hegseth & co about the #EpsteinWar. The draft dodger bone-spur 🍊 felon has no idea what he & Netanyahu have unleashed...

🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊 #auspol

If Iran has a full copy of the Epstein Files, they should release them. They’ll do more damage than any ballistic missile.

Totally agree. I listen to France 24 most days. Such a contrast to vacuous others! Also Al Jazeera.....

The name travels every day with the new Trump deception. 🥵🤬

The summary. 2026.....

Abd then there is Chris Rea and "The road to hell"..... Loud! 😎

Spoke to family today, the parents of a couple with 2 little ones, in Dubai. All are together Scared, but calm......

It is a red wine 🍷 and Leonard Cohen rainy afternoon in Melbourne.... 🕊 Peace 🕊

In the most beautiful square in the great city of Isfahan.... 🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊

Everything genocidal Zionist Israel and the warmongering USA are doing to #Palestine, #Lebanon & now #Iran, has 2 main goals: • distract from Netanyahu's corruption and keep him out of jail • distract from the #EpsteinFiles and keep Trump out of jail. Australia is a compliant vassal state. #auspol

The rich have seized power and turned government and politicians into mere branch managers. Given the dire trajectory of fossil fuelled fascism and global heating, it's now us or them. Centrism is half the problem.

Ha, ha. Same....... 😎

And in 3, 2, 1..... The coward 🍊 felon will blame the economic consequences on his #EpsteinWar, which will do double duty to also mask the consequences of his tariffs.... Great move to muddy those waters as well.

Waiting...... Hey...... @albomp.bsky.social #auspol

Literally the only statement from an elected official I’ve read this morning worth our time. @schumer.senate.gov @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social @sanders.senate.gov take note!! Thank you @mayor.nyc.gov @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social CC: @hebagowayed.bsky.social

The bone-spurs 🍊 felon coward has no idea what he has unleashed... #auspol

This is an excellent piece by Michael Wood—and, for what it’s worth, captures as well as anything I’ve read my “strange mixture” of reactions and thoughts. open.substack.com/pub/michaelw...

Thou Shalt Not Start A War To Distract From The Epstein Files

It is the #EpsteinWar Started by two presidents who are trying to stay out of jail.... #auspol

Rep Jason Crow (D-CO): “I went to war three times for this country and learned that when elites in Washington bang the war drums, working class folks pay the price. The tough talk of a five-time draft dodger falls flat for Americans tired of military adventurism”

You know who kept Iran from getting nuclear weapons? Obama. Trump ripped up that deal and walked away, and here we are today. He's desperately trying to come up with a way to solve a problem that he created out of thin air.

Tim Kaine: "Has Pres. Trump learned nothing from decades of U.S. meddling in Iran and forever wars in the Middle East? Is he too mentally incapacitated to realize that we had a diplomatic agreement with Iran that was keeping its nuclear program in check, until he ripped it up during his first term?"

The attack on Iran will not liberate its brutally-oppressed people, but make matters worse. It could be a trigger for major conflagration.

What did "they" think would happen? Eventually bullies get punched back. And all the Republican sycophants as well. This #EpsteinWar may bring down the coward 🍊 felon.....

All because they thought playing games with the coward 🍊 felon, zionist puppet would ....... what? Improve the world? 🍊 would rather burn it all down....

Explosions in Riyadh as well, per AFP. Fuckity fuck fuck fucking fuck

Iran has launched ballistic missiles at just about every golf country. Trump potentially just started WW3… for a f**king distraction from the fact he’s a pedophile🤬🤬🤬

Getting confirmation from contacts on the ground that Abu Dhabi, Bahrain, Qatar, and Kuwait have been bombed too.

probably should have waited a bit at least before being an absolute moron

Killing Iranians through unprovoked missile strikes is a hell of way to distract everyone from the #EpsteinFiles.

Yep. The coward 🍊 felon may be surprised..... #auspim

But we give gas away for free & oligarchs play the system to pay zero tax! The tech bros have so many $$$ from ripping us all off (globally) for their damn services which we must have! Hmmm #auspol
