We cannot let the despair of our enemies’ relentlessness, resources, and hollow halls of power impede what we do have control over: how we fight, resist, and build. I wrote this essay when I had a clearer mind than I do now, published today: acaciamag.com/issue-03/where…

"Time in war is often measured by intensity rather than duration." Dr. Samaneh Moafi and Omid Montazery provide a harrowing account of Iran during Israel's twelve day siege.
Ongoing thread of the names, images, and brief bios of Iranian civilians killed during #Israel's attacks on #Iran from June 13 to June 24:

From Tehran 💔 After Israel’s intense bombing on the eve of the ceasefire, everyone I spoke to in Tehran said last night was the worst night of their lives. “Ceasefire” is need relief, but it is neither accountability nor justice.

This would be the best moment to push for an arms embargo on Israel
"I'm really unhappy" with Israel, Trump says. He says he is also unhappy with Iran, but keeps emphasizing Israel's role. Referring to both nations' conduct today, he said, "They don't know what the fuck they're doing."

The Israeli army has issued an evacuation threat for District 7 in Tehran, Iran — an area it identified as a potential target in the capital. 🔴 LIVE updates: aje.io/i7kij0

Israeli soldiers are now regularly and systematically massacring Palestinians at their "aid" sites. They do it nearly every day and more than 400 people have now been murdered this way. It is sincerely one of the most evil things I have ever seen.
Former CIA Director John Brennan confirms on MSNBC: - Iran has no nuclear weapons program. - Iran posed no imminent threat to anyone. - Iran was nowhere near producing a nuclear warhead. - Iran wouldn't even use one in a first strike if it did.
How can anyone trust the US - they scheduled negotiations last week, then a few days prior support Israel’s surprise attack (including an assassination attempt of Iran’s negotiator!), bomb Iran’s lawful, civilian nuclear sites — & THEN say let’s talk? Why, to do it all again?!
“We’re ready to negotiate this in a peaceful, in a diplomatic way. We’ve been prepared to do that for days. They are the ones that played games, as they have done for 40 years, as they have done to multiple presidents, they tried to play games with @POTUS, and they see what…
America so deindustrialized we don’t even manufacture our own consent
