‘A very dangerous person’: alarm as Pete Hegseth revels in carnage of Iran war
Critics say brash, bombastic Fox News host out of his depth to guide US military through murky new Middle East conflict
En voor de duidelijkheid, deze religieuze extremisten zijn niet een paar randfiguren die aan de zijlijn meeschreeuwen, maar zijn letterlijk mensen aan de top van de regering in VS, waaronder minister van defensie Pete Hegseth zelf. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026... @robjetten.bsky.social

De oorlog tegen Iran wordt geleid door extremistische christennationalisten die geloven in het bewerkstelligen van armageddon. Deze oorlog steunen is immoreel, irrationeel en suïcidaal. @robjetten.bsky.social @katipiri.bsky.social @estherouwehand.bsky.social @laurensdassen.voltnederland.org

Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez has been outspoken in his criticism of US strikes, provoking anger and threats from the White House. But rather than back down, Sánchez and his government have doubled down. https://cnn.it/4s3PkBi

Iran's government is more hardline, its people are poorer and more isolated, the region's on fire, and the global economy feels like its about to go into shock
If you want to know why people wanted to avoid war with Iran for so long, you're finding out in real time

Seven US Regime Change Wars, Ranked by Disastrousness
Trump has killed Iran's supreme leader and is demanding 'unconditional surrender.' But history tells us that US-led regime change efforts abroad almost never bring positive results.
"Many Americans seem to have forgotten just how catastrophic US regime change wars have been in the past. So, with the risk of history repeating itself once again, here is Zeteo’s list of seven of the US’s most disastrous attempts at regime change, ranked"

Civilians in Tehran are reporting toxic oily rain following US and Israeli airstrikes on oil storage facilities. An estimated 10 million people face exposure to hazardous chemicals, with risks including skin burns and lung damage.

De VS en Israël begaan hiermee oorlogsmisdaden die ver boven de verschrikkingen uitstijgen die Rusland begaan heeft in Oekraïne, en de oorlog in Iran is nog geen twee weken aan de gang. Stop nu iedere vorm van steun hieraan! @robjetten.bsky.social @katipiri.bsky.social @estherouwehand.bsky.social

Groenen winnen verkiezingen in VK en Duitsland. Maar het gaat in het nieuws vooral over de zetels voor ReformUK en AfD i

Het valt me op dat er steeds meer taalfouten worden gemaakt in het nieuws. “Drie keer zoveel dan voorheen.” “De regering … het vindt dat” (verkeerde lidwoord of aanwijzend voornaamwoord bij het onderwerp. Enzovoort enzovoort. Is dit het nieuwe normaal: als je het maar begrijpt?

Ossoff: "The president owes Americans a real explanation. 2am posts on Truth Social just aren't good enough when you're sending Americans into combat. He was dancing at his beach club the same night he ordered air crews to launch into combat & hours before our service members endured missile salvos"

Greens overtake Labour in sensational poll
The Greens have polled higher than Labour in the latest poll by YouGov, which puts them only two points off Reform UK and five ahead of the governing party.
"Of those who voted Labour [in 2024], just 37% would vote Labour again".
Read that again to absorb the full, astonishing weight of what it means.
Starmer, Reeves and co have burnt their house down.

They always have trillions of dollars for illegal wars in the Mideast, but SCOFF in your face and clutch their pearls when you ask for universal healthcare. You are all being played.

Two things are simultaneously true:
1. The Iranian regime treats its people with extreme brutality and cruelty, and we should honour the citizens seeking to overthrow it.
2. A US attack on Iran would turn a crisis into a catastrophe.

1. Pointing out that the Iranian regime's actions are horrific does not in any way subtract from the horror of the Israeli government's genocide in Gaza, or from other atrocities. There are, unfortunately, plenty here who seem to believe we should be partisan in our denunciations. They are wrong. 🧵

A brilliant article that everyone commenting about Iran should read. The Iranian government is not your friend, and never will be, unless you happen to be a clerico-fascist enthusiast of mass torture and mass murder. But weirdly, many in the West who claim to be on the left seem to support it.

Update #IranProtests (240):
Velen vragen zich af hoe het mogelijk is dat, slechts enkele weken na #IranMassacre, waarbij tienduizenden mensen omkwamen, studenten hun leven riskeren en een nieuwe golf van protesten beginnen?

In the end it also hints at the importance of education to fix the society (as far as I remember), so it’s not entirely bad in this respect.
