There is absolutely no excuse for
buying into the war propaganda about Iran after what we all saw with Iraq.

As Iran
mounts an effective response to Israel's war of choice, why should the
president now risk US lives to join it?

The Folly of a War With Iran
Chris Hedges
Iran
has a large arsenal of ballistic missiles it can unleash on Israel, as well as
on American military installations in the region. While initial waves can be
intercepted, repeated attacks would swiftly deplete the Israeli and U.S. air
defense stockpiles.

Will Iran reply to Israeli Attacks with “War of Attrition?” Will its Nuclear Red Line Hold?
Ibrahim Al-Marashi and Mohammad Eslami
Historians may well mark June 13,
2025, as the day the world crossed a line it may not easily step back from. In
a move that shocked the international community and sent global markets
reeling, Israel launched a wide-scale military operation against Iran in the
early hours of the morning, striking targets across at least 12 provinces,
including the capital, Tehran, and the northwestern hub of Tabriz. Among the
targets were suspected nuclear facilities, air defence systems, and the homes
and offices of senior military personnel. Iranian state media confirmed the
deaths of several top commanders in the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps
(IRGC).

A Brief History of U.S. Military Interventions Within the United States
Zoltan Grossman
Although the National Guard has
often been used against civil rebellion, deploying federal military forces
within the U.S. is a drastic and historically rare move. I’ve studied the
history and geography of U.S. military interventions from the “Indian Wars” to
the Middle East, and have documented only a handful of times that Army,
Marines, or federalized National Guard forces have been used against U.S.
citizens over the past century. For Trump to take such a profound leap is an
admission that a conflict at home is being equated to an overseas war. Sending
in soldiers trained for combat will only make a bad situation worse, by
launching a war at home against domestic dissent.

Meet the Think Tanks behind MAGA’s new free speech crackdown
Robert Inlakesh
The administration of U.S.
President Donald Trump—and many of his most prominent right-wing supporters—are
directly linked to some of the most radically pro-war, pro-Israel organizations
in the country. These connections form a sprawling web of lobbying groups, tech
billionaires, and media figures who consistently promote Israeli interests
above those of ordinary Americans.
