2. Do you have a source for that? Recall Mark Twain's adage.

I guess it was Mark Twain.

Thanks, and good morning.

https://truthout.org/articles/us-israeli-attacks-have-damaged-nearly-500-schools-300-health-centers-in-iran/ gives as unbiased a take on it as Truthout's reliance on the impartial Iranian sources could allow. Ahem.

We really can’t afford to give US taxpayer dollars to a rogue state, hellbent on killing its neighbors in such a sick way, only the Nazi’s could have appreciated.

Let Israel’s rightwing government, put on its big boy pants and try to figure out how to pay for all the calculated death they want to inflict on muslim women and children.

We could possibly use that money in a more practical way, and start taking better care of our own vets instead.

They're a rich country and have been for quite some time. They should pay their own goddamn way!

AIPAC should be outed for what it is. A funding source for war criminals and Zionist nutters. No different really than Sinn Féin bagmen in Boston funding IRA atrocities. Just bigger and sucking up OUR tax dollars. At least the IRA was privately funded.

It’s most of what passes as “left” as well, with a few notable exceptions that could never win power.

They should charge Trump, HegSeth, Bondi, Speaker Johnson, CJCS Dan Caine for enabling the ongoing illegal military action
And present them at the Hague
And sanction all Trump family members, and cabinet members
