UNHCR: Up to 3.2 million Iranians temporarily displaced in Iran as conflict intensifies | UNHCR GENEVA โ€“ Between 600,000 and 1 million Iranian households are now temporarily displaced inside Iran as a result of the ongoing conflict, according to preliminary assessments, representing up to 3.2 million people. Most of them are reportedly fleeing from Tehran and other major urban areas towards the north of the country and rural areas to seek safety. This figure is likely to continue rising as hostilities persist, marking a worrying escalation in humanitarian needs.

โ€œNew York needs to go through a reckoning. Out of it may emerge legislative and executive reforms that can improve law enforcementโ€™s ability to fight such monstrous crimes.โ€œ

They either didn't know Iran would shut down the Strait of Hormuz or they knew and didn't have a plan.

Either way - just totally clear they don't give a damn about what this war means for hardworking Americans.

How do we know that Israel ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ฑ is limited by United States? Supposedly, Trump surprised by oil depot attacks. Will he be surprised by nuclear attacks? U.S. has no control over Israel except to stop military spending.

Trump saying, They have lost their navy. They have lost their air force. What have we lost? Our reputation for doing good in world. Hitting girlsโ€™ schools and desalination plant. We have copycatted our targetting to that of Israel.

As a country we have made a lot of mistakes in foreign wars over the last 2+ centuries. But Iโ€™m not sure we have ever looked as feckless, foolish, incompetent and ridiculous at the leadership level than right now.

U.S. Plan to Unblock Strait of Hormuz Collides With Realities of Global Insurance The U.S.-centric insurance idea runs counter to the realities of an international market, according to industry executives.

"U.S. officials called London insurers and brokers, trying to figure out how the market operates, industry insiders said."

When applied to the current administration, I urge caution in using terms like "plans," "strategy," "policy," or "doctrine."
