That time at the beginning of the war against Iran when an unarmed Iranian ship was invited to take part in an Indian naval exercise alongside the United States.
Its sailors were welcomed on land and paraded before the president as a gesture of cooperation.
Then, at the last moment, the United States abruptly withdrew from the exercise,only to turn around and torpedo the very ship it had just stood beside.
What followed was even more grotesque.
After attacking an unarmed vessel, the US refused to rescue the sailors it had thrown into the sea, abandoning them to drown.
The grim work of recovering bodies was left to the Sri Lankan Navy.
This wasn’t warfare,it was treachery of the most disgraceful kind: an ambush carried out under the pretense of diplomacy, followed by a cold refusal to show even the most basic human decency to the dying.
It would represent a collapse of every norm that supposedly governs civilized conduct at sea.
And yet, instead of outrage, much of the American media response has been indifference or rationalization.
The bombing of a girls’ school is brushed aside; talk of carpet-bombing Tehran is floated as if it were just another policy option.
When atrocities are normalized and cruelty is laundered into “strategy,” the line between reporting and complicity begins to disappear.

Sometimes I feel bad for Americans.
Then I remember they watched an ICE agent shoot a woman to death in broad daylight and half the country said she should have complied faster.
They watched police kneel on a man’s neck until he died, and debated his criminal record.
They watched children massacred in schools, again and again, and decided the problem was doors.
If this is what they accept at home, what do you think they believe is acceptable abroad?
This Iranian scientist had once considered leaving Iran. But she stayed—rooted in her homeland, dedicated to her science.
The US and Israel killed her.

“You’re an antisemite.”
I’m anti-satanic. You don’t get to bomb hospitals, commit a genocide and traffic children to blackmail politicians and then play the victim.
Israel will now consider Palestinians who fly kites (yes, KITES) as legitimate military targets.
I do not support MY tax dollars shooting children for flying kites.
I think that’s a moderate position.
