No apology or acknowledgement for the deaths of Indian sailors in the U.S.-Iran war

Instead we get this

Rubio tells India 'ships violating US blockade in Hormuz won't be tolerated', days after Indian seafarers killed

Ironically, Iran has condemned the incident more forcefully than the country whose citizens were killed.

[Esmaeil Baqaei @IRIMFA_SPOX]

The brutal U.S. attacks on Indian commercial vessels which have killed at least three Indian nationals, stand as clear evidence of America’s ongoing policy of armed robbery and State piracy.

We extend our sympathies to the families and friends of the slain Indian sailors and offer our sincere condolences to the Indian people and government.

The international community must hold the United States accountable for its lawless conduct, which continues to threaten global peace and security while endangering the freedom of navigation.

[Stanly Johny @johnstanly]

My point is that I understand when #India doesn't name the perpetrator when it condemns the Israeli bombing of Qatar. I understand when India doesn't name when it condemns the Russian attacks in Ukraine. I also understand if India doesn't want to name when it condemns the Iranian attack on Persian Gulf monarchies. That's strategic balancing. But I don't understand why India doesn't name the country that fired missiles at vessels carrying Indian nationals, and killed three of them, in India's neighbourhood waters!

IPL?

[Harsha Bhogle @bhogleharsha]

Bihar's total of 574 in 50 overs isn't something to celebrate. It is, instead, a worrying indicator of the standard of some of our domestic cricket.

Araghchi's last post. All OK?

[Seyed Abbas Araghchi @araghchi]

In line with the ceasefire in Lebanon, the passage for all commercial vessels through Strait of Hormuz is declared completely open for the remaining period of ceasefire, on the coordinated route as already announced by Ports and Maritime Organisation of the Islamic Rep. of Iran.

Vance in Islamabad: “I won't go into all the details, because I don't want to negotiate in public after we negotiated for 21 hours in private, but the simple fact is that (1) we need to see an affirmative commitment that they will not seek a nuclear weapon, and (2) they will not seek the tools that would enable them to quickly achieve a nuclear weapon.”

Translation: 1. Iran is not ready to hand over its highly enriched uranium; 2. Iran is not ready to give up its enrichment right.

Obama was just more charismatic and a better liar. They are both mass murderers.

There is no military objective that justifies the wholesale destruction of a society's infrastructure or the deliberate infliction of suffering on civilian populations.

Conflicts end when leaders choose dialogue over destruction, @antonioguterres says.

Yet he won’t be called a dictator.
And some of his colleagues will lecture others on international law and morality when they are sacked. But they'll not stop the madman when it is necessary.

Audacity!

[Department of State @StateDept]

SECRETARY RUBIO: The whole world has been impacted unfortunately because Iran is violating every law known by striking commercial vessels in the Straits of Hormuz.

Iran is a regime that doesn’t believe in laws, rules, or anything like that. It’s a state sponsor of terrorism.

58,000 Americans died in Vietnam.

Over 3,000,000 Vietnamese died.

And for fifty years, American culture has centered the grief of the 58,000 while treating the 3,000,000 as a backdrop.

As scenery. As context. As "the Vietnam War experience."

They built a wall in Washington with American names on it.

A beautiful wall. A solemn wall.

Good. Mourn your dead.

But understand what that wall does not say.

It does not say why they died.

It does not say what they were doing there.

It does not say what was done in their name to the people whose country it actually was.

It does not mention My Lai, where American soldiers massacred an entire village, old men, women, children, babies, and the officer who ordered it served three years of house arrest before being pardoned.

Three years. House arrest. Pardoned.

For five hundred people murdered in a ditch.

It does not mention the 2.7 million acres of Vietnamese forest doused in Agent Orange, a chemical weapon disguised as herbicide, that is still deforming Vietnamese children today.

Not in 1970. Not in 1985. Today.

Children born in 2020 with bodies twisted by a war their grandparents fought.

And the chemical companies that made it are still in business.

Still profitable.

Still un-prosecuted.

And yet they send us human rights reports.

They grade our democracy.

They warn us about our behavior.

The audacity is so enormous it becomes almost impressive.

Almost.
