Staff at the nationβs largest Immigration and Customs Enforcement detention facility have placed bets on which detainee will be the next to die by suicide, according to new reporting from the Associated Press based on 911 calls and detainee accounts.
For context:
Al Jazeera cracked this "enigma":
This school had many daughters of military officers and soldiers. The idea was to attract them to the school, strike it to draw in rescuers and relatives, and then strike it again to kill them.
Not only did the US, per its own βintelligence,β bomb this girls primary school, THEY BOMBED IT TWICE.

Flames and black smoke were seen rising from the US Consulate in Dubai after a suspected attack amid Iranian retaliation for US-Israeli strikes.

US marines did open fire. Took long enough for this to come out.

EXCLUSIVE: At more than 30 installations, U.S. commanders told troops the war on Iran is a Christian war.
The Military Religious Freedom Foundation has been βinundatedβ with more than 110 complaints.
One NCO said they were told the U.S. war is to bring about Armageddon and the return of Jesusβ¦
Really hating this current moment in history
Iranians came together to bid a final farewell to 168 young girls, aged 7 to 12, who were killed in a U.S.-Israeli strike targeting their elementary school.
The graves dug for 153 Iranian female school children who were killed by an Israeli-American strike.

The elites broke their own slave-built playground.
Qatar has shut down its LNG production after Iranian targeting. Saudi Arabia has shut down its largest oil production facility after Iranian drones were intercepted. Already, gas prices in Europe has spiked by 50%. No way this doesnβt send further shock waves through global markets.
Americans need to bring the US back to being a normal country. NO MORE EMPIRE.
The stink of your empire is in every corner of the globe. Your marines kill people in Pakistan!
There is only the superpower and its agents, no sovereign govts - those remaining, like Iran and Cuba, are under attack.
The Pentagon is putting the responsibility on Trump.
And bc it's Pakistan, the documentary record will be written askew and move on. As Fanon wrote, "For the native, objectivity is directed against him."
I've now heard it was US marines, Karachi police, embassy security guards. I checked with reporter friends in the country. Ultimately, the "reliable sources" are faithfully reporting what they are being told, but that's not reliable for a host of reasons and mainly muddying the waters.
Update: people are dead but now the reporting is saying "clashes with police."

βThe victims were between seven and 12 years old, according to Iran's Tasnim and Fars news agencies.β
This is likely true. Israel does NOT want democracy in Iran. It certainly doesnβt want anyone who care about Iranian sovereignty and territorial integrity behind the wheel. x.com/tariqali_new...
I do think weβve got a responsibility to really sit with the truth that some Trump administration things weβre horrified by were Obama administration things too, and we just didnβt listen.
This is a type of ICE "ruse," and is a tactic the agency has deployed for decades.
In 2015, ICE went to my former client's house posing as cops and convinced his 16-year-old US citizen niece to call him home from work with a fake story (the "identity theft ruse" explained below), then arrested him.
I remember that time I was simultaneously directing two pgms across three schools. One st faculty member was embroiled in an, um, βconflict of interestβ and decided it would be best if they cut off communication with the dept. I had to plan their classes + advise their students w/o their input π₯³
