Emergency Actions Against The US-Israeli War On Iran - PopularResistance.Org A coalition of grassroots organizations is sponsoring emergency protests in scores of cities around the country on Saturday to oppose the Trump administration’s attack against Iran. Trump’s unprovoked, illegal attack on Iran is an act of war that threatens to cause unthinkable death and destruction. But the people of this country reject another endless war and will take to the streets now and make our voices heard. Iran has not attacked the United States. The government has been engaged in diplomatic negotiations up to the very last moment, and has again and again insisted that it has no intention of developing a nuclear weapons program (which Trump claims to have “obliterated” last year anyway).

“This is the second time in less than a year that diplomacy was betrayed by the Americans.”

Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmail Baghaei slammed the US for once again launching an attack against his country while negotiating with it.

I agree: "Labour sources said the party had not been forgiven by many of its Muslim voters for its stance on Gaza – an issue capitalised on by the Greens in the Manchester side of the constituency."

Sept. 18, 1850: Fugitive Slave Act Passed The U.S. Congress passed the Fugitive Slave Act of 1850.

#tdih 1850, U.S. Congress passed draconian Fugitive Slave Act which required that people who'd escaped from slavery to anywhere in U.S. be captured & returned. 💔 Punished those who did not comply.

Undoes claim of concern for "states rights."

NYT Less Interested Than Ever in Trans Perspectives on Trans Issues Even while feigning concern, the paper of record remains largely uninterested in centering trans people and perspectives in coverage of trans issues.

FAIR’s new study of the New York Times' front-page coverage of trans issues found:

• Trans people were 11% of sources in trans-focused stories, down from 19% in our 2023 study.
• Three of 13 trans-focused stories had no trans sources.

Certain Iranian Assets (Islamic Republic of Iran v. United States of America)

The US lost this ICJ case brought by Iran. The Court found the US violated its Treaty of Amity with Iran and gave the US two years to apologize and pay compensation. That was two years ago.

DOJ is deciding to prosecute discrimination cases [on behalf of white people and/or "Christians" only] by reading the notoriously honest and reliable X, a gathering place for Nazis, white supremacists, and those who constantly nurse paranoid, fake persecution complexes. What a brilliant plan.
