Does Ben Rhodes know that the US has been helping Israel with its genocide of the Palestinian people for the last nearly 3 years?

Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff have deep financial interests in the middle east. Moreover, they couldn't break up a fight in a T-ball game. Keep them TF away from any and all 'negotiations'.

A WHOLE CIVILIZATION
WILL DIE TONIGHT
My son needs lunch, and I have to put his backpack together, but a whole civilization will die tonight, so I'm wondering if they've closed their schools.
Like, a snow day, maybe, except instead of snow it's
"keep your children home so if you die, you die together" — instead of "well open back up once the plows have cleared" it's
"we don't know if we'll be here tomorrow, hold your babies tight."
It's just "talk" I'm told, which I've been told before.
"It's how the president makes his deals." But I've never heard anyone talk about other human beings this way, and I'm not certain I can look my son in the eyes if we all agree to stomach it one more time.
A civilization will die tonight, but as I zip up his backpack and kiss him off to school I think: if this is what we call leadership then I'm not entirely sure ours isn't already dead.

Body cameras show moments after federal agent shot into man’s car in D.C. The footage, which shows little of the shooting itself, was made public following D.C. Council legislation compelling its release.

DHS spox Tricia McLaughlin previously said that "Brown made a 'deliberate attempt' to run officers down. A D.C. police officer, however, testified that no LEOs were standing at Brown’s car, and Brown’s attorney told a judge that the bullets entered the car from the side, not the front."

Lebanon: ICRC outraged by deadly strikes in densely populated areas The International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) is outraged by the devastating death and destruction in densely populated areas across Lebanon today following intensified military operations.

Difficult to describe how unusual it is for @icrc.org to speak publicly like this.

"Heavy explosive weapons with wide-area effects struck densely populated urban areas, including the capital Beirut, without effective advance warnings."

London, San Francisco and Beijing achieve ‘remarkable reductions’ in air pollution Cycle lanes, electric cars and other interventions have helped 19 global cities slash levels of pollutants by more than 20%

It’s official: we cleaned up London’s air 184 years sooner than predicted.

The capital now meets legal limits for nitrogen dioxide air pollution. And you can feel the difference across our city.

Every commanding officer in the US military that gives the orders to bomb civilians, desal plants, non military targets needs to be court martialed and sent to prison. A strong message needs to be sent to our military that they took an oath to the Constitution. Iran is a war crime.

Trump & Hegseth can not stop proving they are incompetent fools. Kharg Island attacks are going to get even more infrastructure hit in every country already under attack. Let alone more cargo ship attacks

Iran’s military warns all regional oil and energy sites with American ties “will be destroyed and turned to ashes” responding to President Trump’s claims about a US attack on Kharg Island.

Ok, so Kharg island is a terminal for loading tankers, and the oil comes from the mainland. So, taking the island will not result in much of anything other than prompting the country to turn off the flow of oil to Kharg. Maybe killmead can explain to me where I am wrong.

Moments ago, at my direction, the United States Central Command executed one of the most powerful bombing raids in the History of the Middle East, and totally obliterated every MILITARY target in Iran's crown jewel, Kharg Island. Our Weapons are the most powerful and sophisticated that the World has ever known but, for reasons of decency, I have chosen NOT to wipe out the Oil Infrastructure on the Island. However, should Iran, or anyone else, do anything to interfere with the Free and Safe Passage of Ships through the Strait of Hormuz, I will immediately reconsider this decision. During my First Term, and currently, I rebuilt our Military into the Most Lethal, Powerful, and Effective Force, by far, anywhere in the World. Iran has NO ability to defend anything that we want to attack - There is nothing they can do about it! Iran will NEVER have a nuclear weapon, nor will it have the ability to threaten the United States of America, the Middle East or, for that matter, the World! Iran's Military, and all others involved with this Terrorist Regime, would be wise to lay down their arms, and save what's left of their country, which isn't much!
Thank you for your attention to this matter. President DONALD J. TRUMP

I’m guessing that’s the oil price through the roof.

After reviewing yesterday’s satellite imagery, we could see that Kharg Island was loading multiple tankers with crude oil. The Iranians were far more cautious during the Twelve Day War, when they only loaded one tanker per day. Ironically, they are now loading more without a navy. #OOTT #Tankers

Donald Trump just bombed Kharg Island destroying Iran's ability to ship oil.

Now Iran will blow up all the ships in the Strait of Hormuz and 25% of the world's Oil is gone.

Oil is expected to hit $200 a barrel.

That's about $180 profit per barrel for the people supplying it.

In effect Pete Hegseth is sentencing any US military personnel the Iranians manage to take prisoner of war (POW) to death. Why would Iranians comply with Geneva Conventions if the Americans don't? Given that a Marine Corp 'boots on the ground' op (Kharg Island?) could be in the offing, VERY stoopid.
