Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Deliberately killing an elderly diplomat and his wife precisely because he was working on a peace effort is one of the greatest crimes imaginable—a killing carried out to prevent a peaceful resolution.

Israel ruthlessly carpet bombed Lebanon today, killing at least 180 people and injuring more than 800.

How does the BBC report it?

“Israel says it hit more than 100 command centres and military sites in 10 minutes…”

This is how war crimes are laundered.

Please understand that Trump is not the exception nor is he unique to American history; he is a byproduct of it. He is the unfettered, morally bankrupt rotten core of American white supremacism/ imperialism staring back at us. It's always been there, its just more unmasked now.

Deep down I think the liberal corporate media/ establishment doesn't actually have a problem with Trump's policies per say (look at Pelosi, Schumer and other Dems comments on ravaging Iran), but rather that he's exposed the facade of America. That's what they find so difficult to stomach and contend with. He doesn't care to mask the true face of America's horrific violence or disregard for human life.

American imperialist hegemony built itself upon a veneer of moral supremacy that legitimized it's violence as necessary and good. America was a brand, a business, with a very specific image that needed to be sustained.

Marketed through its media, corporations and propaganda expeditiously— it depended upon upholding an illusion (myth) of moral and civilizational superiority, that covered over its true evils. That always gave it the upper hand because it was inherently benevolent.

This justified it's global dominance, even though it was always maintained through such unforgiving brutality. Yet Trump routinely exposes this with both his incompetence and variable honesty, even though he's not actually trying to be honest.

Hence they purposefully make Trump seem like an outlier to the presidency. Recall the years long obsession with the Russian collusion narrative, because of the optics.

His victory over the neoliberal feel-good, female empowerment candidate (Clinton), made America, the self-anointed bastion of democracy and progressivism in the world, look bad. That it couldn't actually elect a borderline fascist or overt racist when racism had just ended with the first Black President previously. That it must have been that some foreign entity that helped him win.

People today laud war criminals like Bush and Obama because they perceive the US presidency through the expectation of a performance. Trump lacks the relative decorum of his predecessors to mask the fallout of policies which are just as destructive as theirs, if not more.

Trump is only an exception to American history in that he doesn't outwardly behave *presidentially* because he wasn't coming off of the traditional, cookie-cutter DC establishment politician conveyor belt.

He doesn't possess the charm, wit or likeablity of his predecessors to paint over America's horrors. He has laid it all bare; gloves off, mask off.

He's given them permission to show their true essence and not be ashamed of it. There is no need to hide it any longer— the violent white supremacy— unleashed to maximum capability. Maximum lethality, not tepid legality; as Hegseth put it.

He's told them to take pride in it; to do it boldy. No fanciful language or need to spin the reality of what they're actually doing or believe in; unrelenting and unabashed; not restricted by or accountable to, any entity or semblance of morality. Just raw power.

He is America's true face.

This is a courage and a confidence in Trump’s humanity that I frankly don’t have. Moving display.

After bombing a school and massacring young girls, the war criminal in the White House is threatening genocide.

It's time to invoke the 25th Amendment. This maniac should be removed from office.

Do these people look like hostages forced to act as human shields?

This is Iran.
These are the people of Iran, the bravest nation on earth.

You cannot defeat people who are ready to die for what is right - with their heads bloody but unbowed.

He needs to be stopped.

I know the comparison to Hitler is overused but it's rarely been more warranted: he's literally speaking about erasing a whole civilization.

Judging by how POTUS swears like a teenager, it seems the US has reached the Stone Age sooner than expected.

There's a reason why Trump is nicknamed 川建国 (Chuān Jiàn Guó) - "Trump build China" - in China.

Professors are being fired from universities for expressing Palestine solidarity, but professor Martin Nowak, responsible for Jeffrey Epstein having an office on Harvard campus, who laundered anonymous grants from Epstein, is still officially employed by Harvard, on paid leave.

U.S. sanctions since 1979 have blocked medicines to Iran. So Iran developed its own pharmaceutical research and manufacturing to take care of the Iranian people. Now the U.S. and Israel are bombing Iran's medical research facilities and pharmaceutical factories. Pure evil.

[Reuben Rodriguez @ReubenR80027912]

Truly incredible stuff here. This is such an egregious error for the A section of the NYT (not a typo, genuinely not knowing what NATO stands for) that it should lead every piece on the decline in journalism
