More US-Israeli war crimes in Iran

 

Iran is not rolling over.

Oh, he's SO close.

UPDATE :04/07/2026

Ongoing war crimes in Iran

 

Pretty sure this is not the first "double tap" for the US military.

And, apparently, we've been seeing too much...

And now, he's threatening Hell to "reign" down on Iran, "Glory be to GOD!"  He's talking the talk of the Christian Nationalists and Pete Hegseth now.

One minute, it's all you European countries and the rest of the world, go get your own oil, we don't need it.  Next minute, it's Hell coming for Iran if they don't open the Strait.  He's totally fucking nuts.

Two days, 10 days, 48 hours.  He's totally fucking nuts.

Meantime, Iran is kicking our ass.

Another milestone for the orange god king.

UPDATE 07:20 pm:

Don't tell someone to do something you wouldn't do yourself.

UPDATE 04/05/2026:  Fucking nuts.

Food for thought

 

US attack on Venezuela - Day 2

 

Venezuela HAS a government.  The Trump administration is acting as if it doesn't.

Machado is the woman awarded last year's Nobel Peace Prize.  She was no doubt in support of Trump's illegal operation to kidnap Maduro.  She must be pretty offended that he publicly said she doesn't have the respect needed to govern.  (Not that she's interested in the job.)

If you're leaking to the New York Times or the Washington Post (or any other mainstream media outlet), you're leaking to the wrong people.

UPDATE 01/04/2026:  Give us your country.  Or else.

Well, she's in a pickle.  Venezuelans will not allow her to do that.

Putin is only asking for Ukraine.

He couldn't have done what he did without the support and assistance of Venezuela's opposition party, which probably thought THEY'D be in charge.  The Faustian bargain is alive in the person of Donald Trump as Satan.

That's the true Trump Derangement Syndrome.  It's a virus running rampant.

Greenland and Denmark are part of NATO.  Taking Greenland would be a little tricky, but I would not put it past the mad orange king to try.

Of all the places he's threatening, this one, which should be the easiest given Cuba's location, is the least likely to even be undertaken.  Cuba has Putin's backing.  Perhaps he'll make a deal with Putin, Cuba in exchange for Ukraine.*

How many soldiers do we have?   Are we just going to send Erik Prince's mercenaries to occupy foreign houses of government?

UPDATE 08:55 pm:

What excuse will Trump use to eliminate her?

Game on, I guess.

This cannot end well.

If  you think Venezuelans are going to lay down for a Trump takeover, watch "The Revolution Will Not Be Televised."

 

UPDATE 09:23 pm:

He's not going to break the Venezuelan people, either.  He has bitten off more than he can chew.  

*UPDATE 01/05/2026:  I see the deal was already made.  But not using Cuba.

Day two - US war crimes in Iran

I started this blog when the US invaded Iraq under W Bush with bullshit intelligence, 22 years ago. I can hardly believe it's been that long. And here I am again, back in the same insane spot while we're bombing Iran. How do we think this will go?

Three B-2 bombers flying from the United States dropped six 13.6-ton Massive Ordnance Penetrator “bunker-busters” on the underground Fordow plant, while a US submarine fired about 30 Tomahawk cruise missiles at Natanz and Isfahan. President Donald Trump later declared the targets “completely and totally obliterated,” warning that “far greater” strikes could follow if Iran retaliates.

  Jerusalem Post

And, perhaps that's because, as reported, Iranians moved their stockpile before the hit.  And, it's reported, that the US told Iran beforehand that we were going to drop the bomb -- but only the one time.  So much bullshit.  

It was reported that US officials “reached out to Iran diplomatically on Saturday” to say the strikes were all the United States planned and that no wider war was intended.

  Jerusalem Post

Dimplomatically!

No war was intended! Insanity.

CBS reported that US officials “reached out to Iran diplomatically on Saturday” to say the strikes were all the United States planned and that no wider war was intended. Reuters quoted US sources repeating the same message and noting it was passed hours before the first bombs fell.

Iranian officials subsequently evacuated “most” enriched-uranium stocks from Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan before impact, an Iranian source told the regional site Amwaj media. The Indian NDTV also reported on Sunday that the US updated the Iranian regime before the attack, about 24 hours beforehand. According to the report, the information was passed on to Iran through a third Middle Eastern country.

Iran’s Atomic Energy Organization denounced the raid as a “brutal act” violating the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty and vowed to rebuild its nuclear industry.

Officials have not detailed casualties or damage, but Iranian state television said the sites had been partly evacuated beforehand.

I don't think that's it.  They don't care about Congress or laws.  They care about the fact that Trump told his loyal followers that he wouldn't get us into wars.

And now, maybe we'll stop talking about ICE raids.  And we're not talking about the MAGA assassinations in Minnesota.

That's General Dan 'Raisin' Caine.  Trumped loved that.  He's there for his name.

So...more bullshit.

We will attack, unprovoked, and then defend ourselves.

A decoy!  For whom?  We already told Iran what we were going to do!  Must have been a decoy for "the people in Washington."

Without WASHINGTON knowing.  A man in Missouri reported that he saw the B-2s leaving Whiteman Airforce base.  And the US TOLD apparently several Mideast countries what was coming.  And yesterday, before the attack was reported, I even posted the ridiculous Bloomberg report that B-2s had launched while Trump was "weighing" whether to bomb Iran, noting that the decision had obviously already been made.

After it was over, in other words.  Never mind that Congress is supposed to be the agency to approve war.  Oh yeah, it's not war.  It's just a "one-off" bombing.

CNN, finger on the pulse. On the very DAY of the attack.  Kevin Liptak should go back to school, and CNN needs an editor who's awake.

No. No, you idiot asshole, they have not.

A little late for that, Chuck.

Of course!

Trump didn't plan anything, but thanks for putting the responsibility - which he sees as credit, asskisser - on him.

You know what was a deterrence?  The JCPOA that Trump trashed.

I wonder what Pakistan was promised to get them to nominate him.

Too late.  

 In a nutshell...

AIPAC was a huge player in the Iraq invasion.

This post will be updated below throughout the day.

UPDATE 09:35 am:

War is peace.

Yeah, we didn't declare war on Cambodia, either.

I don't know why they wouldn't believe that.

Well, we don't want THEM to engage.

And now we have a genius.  Who, by the way, was one of those presidents "back then."

UPDATE 01:49 pm:

While Trump recently publicly disputed Gabbard’s testimony [that the intel community believes Iran is NOT building a nuclear weapon], according to two administration officials with knowledge of internal deliberations in recent weeks, the president’s decision to strike was not driven by any new U.S. intelligence on Iran.

“There is no intel,” says one of the officials, who were granted anonymity to discuss sensitive matters. “Nothing new, that I’m aware of… The president is protecting the United States and our interests, [but] the intelligence assessments have not really changed from what they were before.”

  Rolling Stone

Not to mention the crazy tariffs.  Maybe China would like to make a deal.

Weeeeelllllll...

Somehow, little tough man and AI are going to keep us safe.  No worries.

My posts on American involvement in war since the beginning of the blog have carried a tag of "perpetual war".

Every Sunday show Republican has said we are not interested in regime change in Iran.

Every. Time.
