Mojtaba Khamanei, in his first statement as Supreme Leader, says that "the resistance in Yemen" – Ansar Allah/the Houthis, who haven't tapped in yet – "are ready to do their job." Says the same about the Islamic Resistance in Iraq.

"We will destroy [the enemy's] facilities. That will bring the compensation that we need. We have good relations with 15 neighboring countries... But the enemy has certain military bases in some of these countries & have used them to attack us... My advice is to stop these bases from operating."

This is the front page of the Tehran Times today.

Trump fired a Tomahawk missile on a school full of children in Minab, Iran.

Then launched another missile to kill the parents who rushed in to rescue them.

168 schoolkids killed. Then their parents.

History will never forget.

Do what’s right, even when you’re the only one doing it. Don’t let the actions of those interested in belonging to a group dissuade you from analyzing a situation and making better choices. I’d rather be excluded for who I include than included for who I exclude. ☯️🌱✌️

I was there today & spoke w local police officers who told me they were there to protect the demonstrators, who by the way were very peaceful.

The incident started when ICE ran a car off the road & there person in the car jumped out and ran into a nearby house. That’s when neighbors stepped in.

β€œSlow Pay, Low Pay or No Pay”: Trial Reveals How Insurers Try to Wield Power Over Doctors Blue Cross authorized mastectomies and breast reconstructions for women with cancer but refused to pay the full doctors’ bills. A jury called it fraud and awarded the practice $421 million.

The breast cancer center appealed thousands of Blue Cross reimbursements for being too low.

At trial, the insurer revealed that it had never considered any of the appeals β€” and that they were pointless:

β€œAn appeal is not available to review an underpayment.”

Now’s a good time to read up on the 1928 Red Line agreement, revised in 1947/48, underpinning the profound sense of entitlement U.S. companies feel towards oil in the Middle East

A preliminary Pentagon review has found that a U.S. Tomahawk strike hit an all-girls elementary school in Minab, Iran, on Feb. 28 because American forces used outdated targeting data, according to a report published Wednesday by The New York Times.
