“At least 15 cases of sexual assaults, including rape. Shot with rubber bullets at close range. Tens of people’s bones broken,” organizers of the Global SumudFlotilla posted on the Telegram social media app.
“While the world’s eye is trained on the suffering of our participants, we cannot emphasize enough that this is a mere glimpse of the brutality Israel imposes daily on Palestinian hostages.”

Agent Orange.

Let's sit with this for a moment.

The U.S. military, between 1961 and 1971, sprayed approximately 20 million gallons of herbicidal chemicals over approximately 4.5 million acres of Vietnamese land.

Primarily a compound called Agent Orange, contaminated with dioxin, one of the most toxic substances known to human science.

The stated purpose was "defoliation."

Destroy the jungle canopy.

Deprive Vietnamese fighters of cover.

What it actually did was poison a country for generations.

The people who were directly exposed developed cancers at catastrophic rates.

They died of diseases their bodies had never been designed to fight.

They had children with devastating birth defects: missing limbs, destroyed nervous systems, bodies that could not function.

Those children had children who were also affected.

The dioxin settled into the soil, into the water, into the food chain, into the bodies of everyone who ate and drank and breathed in contaminated areas.

This did not stop in 1971.

The poison is still there.

The birth defects are still happening.

The cancers are still happening.

There are Vietnamese people alive today, born decades after the war, whose bodies bear the mark of a chemical weapon deployed before their parents were old enough to fight.

The U.S. government spent decades denying responsibility.

Fought legal battles to avoid compensation.

Eventually offered amounts so insulting they functioned more as mockery than reparation.

And then, this is the part that should make every person with a conscience unable to sleep, they continued to present themselves to the world as the "moral authority."

The defenders of the "rules-based order."

The nation that other nations should model themselves on.

Vietnam did not model itself on America.

Vietnam defeated America.

And Vietnam is still here.

🇧🇷🇨🇺🚨 BREAKING: Lula just said what the world has been thinking. "Stop this damned blockade on Cuba and let the Cuban people live their lives." Cuba has problems. But they are Cuba's problems. Not Lula's. Not Trump's. Not the empire's.

The US has punished Cuba for decades. Sanctions. Blockades. Regime change attempts. None of it worked. Cubans are still standing. Still surviving. Still waiting for the world to let them breathe.

Lula is not begging. He's demanding. The blockade is not policy. It's cruelty. And the world is tired of watching.

Spread the truth. Free Cuba. Not from its leaders. From the blockade. Let the Cuban people live.

IRAN'S FULL "OPEN LETTER" TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE:

"To the people of the United States of America, and to all those who, amid a flood of distortions and manufactured narratives, continue to seek the truth and aspire to a better life:

Iran—by this very name, character, and identity—is one of the oldest continuous civilizations in human history. Despite its historical and geographical advantages at various times, Iran has never, in its modern history, chosen the path of aggression, expansion, colonialism, or domination. Even after enduring occupation, invasion, and sustained pressure from global powers—and despite possessing military superiority over many of its neighbors—Iran has never initiated a war. Yet it has resolutely and bravely repelled those who have attacked it.

The Iranian people harbor no enmity toward other nations, including the people of America, Europe, or neighboring countries. Even in the face of repeated foreign interventions and pressures throughout their proud history, Iranians have consistently drawn a clear distinction between governments and the peoples they govern. This is a deeply rooted principle in Iranian culture and collective consciousness—not a temporary political stance.

For this reason, portraying Iran as a threat is neither consistent with historical reality nor with present-day observable facts. Such a perception is the product of political and economic whims of the powerful— the need to manufacture an enemy in order to justify pressure, maintain military dominance, sustain the arms industry, and control strategic markets. In such an environment, if a threat does not exist, it is invented.

Within this same framework, the United States has concentrated the largest number of its forces, bases, and military capabilities around Iran—a country that, at least since the founding of the United States, has never initiated a war. Recent American aggressions launched from these very bases have demonstrated how threatening such a military presence truly is. Naturally, no country confronted with such conditions would forgo strengthening its defensive capabilities. What Iran has done—and continues to do—is a measured response grounded in legitimate self-defense, and by no means an initiation of war or aggression.

Relations between Iran and the United States were not originally hostile, and early interactions between the Iranian and American people were not marred with hostility or tension. The turning point, however, was the 1953 coup d’état—an illegal American intervention aimed at preventing the nationalization of Iran’s own resources. That coup disrupted Iran’s democratic process, reinstated dictatorship, and sowed deep distrust among Iranians toward U.S. policies. This distrust deepened further with America’s support for the Shah’s regime, its backing of Saddam Hussein during the imposed war of the 1980s, the imposition of the longest and most comprehensive sanctions in modern history, and ultimately, unprovoked military aggression—twice, in the midst of negotiations—against Iran.

Yet all these pressures have failed to weaken Iran. On the contrary, the country has grown stronger in many areas: literacy rates have tripled—from roughly 30% before the Islamic Revolution to over 90% today; higher education has expanded dramatically; significant advances have been achieved in modern technology; healthcare services have improved; and infrastructure has developed at a pace and scale incomparable to the past. These are measurable, observable realities that stand independent of fabricated narratives.

At the same time, the destructive and inhumane impact of sanctions, war, and aggression on the lives of the resilient Iranian people must not be underestimated. The continuation of military aggression and recent bombings profoundly affect people’s lives, attitudes, and perspectives. This reflects a fundamental human truth: when war inflicts irreparable harm on lives, homes, cities, and futures, people will not remain indifferent toward those responsible.

This raises a fundamental question: Exactly which of the American people’s interests are truly being served by this war? Was there any objective threat from Iran to justify such behavior? Does the massacre of innocent children, the destruction of cancer-treatment pharmaceutical facilities, or boasting about bombing a country “back to the stone ages” serve any purpose other than further damaging the United States’ global standing?
Iran pursued negotiations, reached an agreement, and fulfilled all its commitments. The decision to withdraw from that agreement, escalate toward confrontation, and launch two acts of aggression in the midst of negotiations were destructive choices made by the U.S. government—choices that served the delusions of a foreign aggressor.

Attacking Iran’s vital infrastructure—including energy and industrial facilities—directly targets the Iranian people. Beyond constituting a war crime, such actions carry consequences that extend far beyond Iran’s borders. They generate instability, increase human and economic costs, and perpetuate cycles of tension, planting seeds of resentment that will endure for years. This is not a demonstration of strength; it is a sign of strategic bewilderment and an inability to achieve a sustainable solution.

Is it not also the case that America has entered this aggression as a proxy for Israel, influenced and manipulated by that regime? Is it not true that Israel, by manufacturing an Iranian threat, seeks to divert global attention away from its crimes toward the Palestinians? Is it not evident that Israel now aims to fight Iran to the last American soldier and the last American taxpayer dollar—shifting the burden of its delusions onto Iran, the region, and the United States itself in pursuit of illegitimate interests?

Is “America First” truly among the priorities of the U.S. government today?

I invite you to look beyond the machinery of misinformation—an integral part of this aggression—and instead speak with those who have visited Iran. Observe the many accomplished Iranian immigrants—educated in Iran—who now teach and conduct research at the world’s most prestigious universities, or contribute to the most advanced technology firms in the West. Do these realities align with the distortions you are being told about Iran and its people?

Today, the world stands at crossroads. Continuing along the path of confrontation is more costly and futile than ever before. The choice between confrontation and engagement is both real and consequential; its outcome will shape the future for generations to come. Throughout its millennia of proud history, Iran has outlasted many aggressors. All that remains of them are tarnished names in history, while Iran endures—resilient, dignified, and proud."

The objective of the war has become undoing the consequence of the war.

The stupidest war in history.

[The Resonance @Partisan_12]

The Untited States has been at war 233 of its 250 years. That's 93% of its entire existences

In its 250 years it has invaded or bombed 70 countries that's more than 35% of the whole world.

There is no greater threat to world peace than the United States

🔺 IRGC Warning to U.S. Leadership:

“The Zionist-American invading forces, by bombing the University of Science and Technology in Tehran, have once again targeted Iranian universities.

🔹 The rulers of the White House should know that from now on, all universities of the occupying regime and American universities in West Asia are considered legitimate targets, until two universities are struck in retaliation for Iranian universities that were destroyed.

🔹 We advise all staff, professors, students, and residents near American universities in the region to stay at least one kilometer away to ensure their safety.

🔹 If the U.S. government wants its universities in the region to avoid further retaliation beyond two strikes at this stage, it must officially condemn the bombing of universities by 12:00 PM Tuesday, March 30 (Tehran time).

🔹If it wants its universities not to be targeted afterward, it must restrain its allied forces from attacking universities and research centers; otherwise, this threat will remain in effect.

I'll never forget how the Israelis bombed al-Ahli Arab Hospital in Gaza in October 2023 and the world was shocked and horrified. Israel denied it, saying they would never commit such a heinous crime.

Then they went on to bomb every single hospital in Gaza.

Now they are doing the same in Lebanon and Iran. The Israelis have bombed at least 128 medical facilities and ambulances across south Lebanon. In Iran, the US and Israel have bombed 25 hospitals and medical centres.

In Lebanon, they are committing double tap strikes to kill medics and rescue workers, just as they did in Gaza. Medics are forced to delay their responses.

These monsters are normalizing war crimes that were once unthinkable.

The US bombing of schoolchildren in Iran is the biggest single US massacre of civilians since My Lai. The Israeli bombing of Tehran’s oil storage constitutes the biggest single act of chemical warfare against a civilian population in history. Grotesque new depths of barbarism.

[Ryan Grim @ryangrim]

Spending 2.5 years crusading publicly against the very idea of international law and then posting something like this suggests something beyond normal hypocrisy. This is a mental disorder, a genuine inability to understand that both you and others are ultimately the same, and that laws and rules should be applied equally and fairly to all. They’re not just there to protect you when you want protection and to be ignored when you want to burn and flatten entire cities. How do you not get that?
