If you don’t see the link between ICE and the IDF, you haven’t been paying attention. We are being asked to accept a world where whole communities are made disposable and marked for disappearance. If we accept that for anyone, no one is safe anywhere.

Yes, it’s totally different when you have an even *dumber* president.
Vance: I empathize with Americans who are exhausted after 25 years of foreign entanglements in the Middle East. I understand the concern, but the difference is that back then we had dumb presidents

Is Fordo really the most important thing about Iran’s nuclear program or is the focus on it designed to drag the US into the war? Since Fordo is the only target that needs US planes and bunker buster bombs.
