Just saw a Republican on BBC News saying that only Iran has schools near military bases - 'who does that, we don't do that, only Iran does that'.
The BBC didn't challenge him.

U.S. Air Force B-1 And B-52 Bombers Now Striking Iran From The UK
The U.S. Air Force now operates three distinct bomber aircraft, all of which can trace their development back to the Cold War.
US bombers loading up on UK airstrips before raining down bombs on Iran.
Parliament wasn't consulted - and polling shows huge numbers oppose it.
When do MPs get a say over our involvement in this war?

I COULD row across the North Atlantic, enter the United States on an un-monitored beach, walk to the Whitehouse, do a shite, and throw afore-mentioned shite over the fence, onto the Whitehouse lawn.
Would I?
About the same chance as Iran launching a drone at the US from a boat in the Pacific..

It turns out the U.S. did a โdouble tapโ attack just as emergency responders were arriving at the girlsโ elementary school. This is what the Russians do routinely in Ukraine.
Thatโs a war crime under international humanitarian law.

I am also shocked by the lack of coverage of this fire. Itโs so far only affecting the Union Street buildings, but one of those has partially collapsed, from what I can tell backwards into the station. And itโs not yet contained. This is major and more than halfway down BBCโs homepage.

It would be an unusual move to bomb a school on your own country by accident when there are no foreign troops in the area. It's usually Israel that bombs schools, its the US this time.

This a delusion. I've spoken with ordinary people in the Caribbean and the Commonwealth is an irrelevance to them. Further Education, funding and opportunities come from the US whilst China builds their hospitals. The CW is a now just an imagined hankering by the UK for the long gone days of Empire.
