“We are the only ones who can have nuclear weapons. And long range missiles. Because we are the only ones the world should trust to not use them. Even though we’re the ones who have used them the most. Lmao.
In order to illegally assassinate the Kant philosopher and security minister, Ali Larijani, you identified several properties he "might" have been at and blew up all those neighbourhoods. Hundreds died just so you could kill the one man who might have negotiated peacefully.
So by your own definition, is this an admission of a war crime? Or are you exempt?
Israel running to the International Community for help in a war they started while the International Community wants them for war crimes is exactly where we're at.
There’s a deep irony in watching the United Stated and Israel break every tenet of International Law with Western support and then see the same bunch of Western criminals try and use that same doctrine against Iran. It’s just a shame our media is too corrupt to mention this.
The funniest thing happening in the world right now is the way the western political/media class is asking us to be shocked and outraged that Iran would attack US allies who are actively collaborating toward its destruction in an unprovoked war of aggression. It's hilarious.
Think about how dehumanized the Muslim world would have to be in your perception in order for that kind of thinking to make sense. You'd have to see them as so unlike yourself that it would astonish and baffle you for them to be retaliating against unprovoked aggressions like any normal human being. Your view would essentially have to be, "Why are those Iranians hitting us back? Don't they know their role is to be killed, and our role is to do the killing? They've got the natural order of things completely backward!"
Iran is fighting for its very existence as a state. Obviously it's going to respond aggressively toward everyone who's helping to destroy it. It's a symptom of a profoundly sick and twisted civilization that this would seem abnormal or surprising to anyone.
The lack of self awareness that so many leaders are displaying is astonishing. The Strait of Hormuz WAS open and Iran was letting the world use its territorial waters for FREE until they got sneak attacked in the middle of negotiations.
Now you want to threaten them further?
The problem is that when you arrogantly and defiantly blow up civilian centers for 2.5 years, massacring hundreds of thousands of innocent people, including tens of thousands of children, you can’t expect people to give a shit when your cities get the smallest taste of that
The only consistent United States foreign policy principle is that if you attempt to place your resources beyond the reach of US capital you are a rogue nation and an example must be made of you
Venezuela has:
– 303B barrels of oil (largest on Earth)
– 195 Tcf of natural gas (top 5 globally)
– Thousands of tons of gold (Latin America’s largest)
– Major diamond deposits
But yeah, totally about drugs and human rights. 🙃
“International law” was engineered by colonial powers as a framework to police and control the colonized. It is wielded against politicians in Africa and the Middle East, while the foundational structures of imperialism remain unaffected and protected. It’s working as intended.
Right-wing media: “Trump has liberated the Venezuelan people from tyranny. A true humanitarian”
Trump: “did it for the oil. we are taking the oil. it’s our oil now. I love oil”
Also, I hope it’s not surprising to you guys that the 2 countries the US decided to bomb within a 2 week span (Venezuela and Nigeria) also happen to have some of the world’s largest oil reserves… With Venezuela being the largest in the world.🙂↔️
