New video footage shows a US Tomahawk missile hitting an IRGC facility in Minab, Iran, on Feb 28, showing for the first time that the US struck the area. The footage also shows smoke already rising from the vicinity of the girls’ school, where 175 people were reportedly killed, including children.
Stephen Fry: “I’m deeply worried by the darkening shadow that’s going over the world, a shadow that we have to call fascism”
Laura Kuenssberg: “You would use that word?”
Stephen Fry: “Oh absolutely. It’s a cult of power; and power only speaks to power”

They're going to poison a city with 17 million people
This is the man Senators who present themselves as serious human beings are going to rubber stamp into the office of Director of Homeland Security. Show some self-respect and some love of country and vote no.
I just finished watching this speech regarding Russia, Epstein and others by Senator Sheldon Whitehouse. It is 48 minutes long but it’s fascinating.

Foreign Secretary Yvette Cooper responds to President Trump’s latest outburst.
“The job of the British PM is to take decisions in the national interest of the U.K., not in the interests of other countries… we don’t outsource foreign policy to other countries”.

Sadly Tony Blair has not.
He’s endorsing it 😖
Indonesia suspends its participation in Board of Peace
“Indonesian FM Sugiono said the decision to suspend participation was taken because of the latest military escalation in the region, which has directly affected the foreign policy priorities of countries involved in the initiative”
Do you think they might have cottoned on that the Board of Peace was just another scam from Trump to get money out of stupid people?
It is absolutely insane that the US appears to have targeted desalination plants first – putting them onto the board. Iran seems to have already retaliated against one in Bahrain. This is one of the most obvious ways this could spiral.
I like this Ben Stiller fellow. When he made a movie in Wilmington, Ohio, he was nice to people. And look — he stands up for himself rather than allowing himself to be ritually humiliated.
Now comes the ritual humiliation of NFL players. Just a few people speaking out in defense of their own dignity would make a big difference here.
Trump and Hegseth lying on Airforce One:
Reporter: “Did the United States bomb a girls’ elementary school in southern Iran on the first day of the war and kill 175 people.”
Trump: “Based on what I’ve seen that was done by Iran.”
Reporter: “Is that true Secretary Hegseth?”

Is anyone surprised?

Unconscionable.
Congress needs to aggressively reassert its authority. Stop this illegal war from becoming even more deadly. Now we know it was likely a U.S. bomb that caused mass casualties at the girls' school in Iran.
No more of our taxpayer dollars funding this savagery.
My thoughts on Amy Coney Barrett speaking in Santa Fe, NM.
Dutch prime minister says strikes on Iran not in line with international law
“Both the attacks on Iran last week and the unacceptable retaliation from Iran on countries in the region fall outside the framework of international law,” Rob Jetten said.

Doesn’t seem to shock anyone any more 😖
Gentle reminder for those idiots that want Britain to get fully involved in an illegal war in the Middle East built on a false argument around WMD, in 2003 we had an economy larger than China and could put about 60,000 servicemen and women into the field.
It's history, not current affairs.
In the Novopavlivske direction, Ukrainian forces have advanced east of Ivanivka, pushing Russian positions back and strengthening their hold on the sector.
