"Sen. John Hickenlooper (D-Colo.) acknowledged to Andreone that “there are a lot of special interests involved” in Trump’s decision to go to war in Iran, but said regarding Israel’s influence over U.S. foreign policy, “I don’t think it is that prevalent.”

Says the man with $2,491,132.00 of AIPAC money in the bank.

It's hilarious and embarrassing at the same time. It is also utterly catastrophic. John Hickenlooper, you are a disgrace and a traitor.

So wait. The US is now attacking Iraq, too, and the UN Security Council condemns Iran but not the US-Israeli aggression? And this after Trump has shit all over the UN?

Elizabeth Warren: she talks a progressive game let's see if she along with most Dems give Trump the additional $50 billion for slaughtering more children/citizens/hosptals/schools, in Iran. Most Dems are hawkish psychopaths just like the Repubs. Watch what they do....not say!

We'll see. I don't have her pegged for a warmonger. She rarely talks foreign policy.

Her stabs in the back tend to be more on other issues.

But can't rule it out either.

"U.N. Security Council condemns Iranian attacks on Gulf states in new resolution: The U.N. Security Council adopted a resolution Wednesday condemning Iran’s attacks on Gulf Cooperation Council states and Jordan, with 13 votes in favor, and Russia and China abstaining. The resolution, presented by Bahrain and co-sponsored by 135 countries, said the strikes violate international law and threaten international peace and security, and condemned Iranian attacks on civilian infrastructure. **The measure did not reference the ongoing U.S.-Israeli strikes on Iran that have killed more than 1,300 civilians.**"

Is this the same body that still can't decide if the 2-1/2 years and counting genocide by Israel is really a genocide? Or is it a different body of suck-ups and ass-hats?

3.2 MILLION humans displaced. The hardest part of reading DSN is the mind-numbing number of people suffering under the madness of the authoritarian monsters driving this horror. I have to stop myself from continuing on to let it sink in. Staggering. Meanwhile, zionist freaks bomb GAZA? How do we wrest power from these cretins, and bring them to justice?

Iran war is going bad so now FBI is trying to plant the seeds for the next war on Mexico.

I do not believe that targeting a school was an accident. It’s too much out of the Israeli playbook - including first blaming the victims, and then declaring it a whoopsie.

More, this was one of the very first strikes in the attack. It is not credible that the first bombs dropped were based on ‘outdated’ information. Perhaps after day 10 or 20, but not in the first hour.

Thirteen days in and I am already compelled to remind the world that Israel and the US began a massive bombing and assassination campaign against the Iran, for **no justifiable purpose**. None. Not one reasonable excuse.

While I think "demanding answers" over the cruise missle-murdering of 175 elementary school girls is a normal thing to do in response to such barbarity, I do find it odd that the same intensity and "letter writing" by our Senators is absent regarding **the fucking war itself**.

Israelites have been fighting with neighboring lands and peoples for thousands of years. Boorish Bibi did not drag megaloquacious Donnie into war in Iran, the Country Club Casino Gaza Strip, Saudi sword dance, Quatar airplane swap. Land grab and grab ass is his own. In the area of press Murdoch did write T-rump glam quotes on Page Six. The consequences of Don-&-Doge cutting departments, personnel directly led to the elementary school bombing based on an out-of-date map and intel in the capable hands of men who absolved themselves of slavery, chattel laws, land erosion, slag piles, Deep Water Horizon - the threat to species only known in the Gulf of Hormuz.

Genocide in the Middle East won't stop until Zionist Israel has crushed all rebellion to its total domination of their lives.
