Actually, "Iran has long insisted
publicly that it isn't interested
in building a nuclear weapon —
including earlier Tuesday, when
Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas
Araghchi wrote on X that 'Iran
will under no circumstances ever
develop a nuclear weapon'":
"Even as the president considers
an attack, his State of the Union
address offered little more than a
brief repetition of vague talking
points from recent days" ...
... including his claim that "the
US 'obliterated' Iran’s nuclear
programme last year, contradicting
his special envoy Steve Witkoff,
who said Iran is 'one week away'
from a nuclear bomb":
"The best antidote to this massive
disinformation campaign, as
always, is to read books by
learned and responsible scholars
and critical thinkers":
"The
post is the
latest in a series of recruitment
pitches
in Farsi, Korean, Russian
and Mandarin that
offered secure ways to contact the
CIA":
Settler violence and Israeli war
crimes continue:
"Running battles were reported on
some campuses, with videos showing
fistfights between the Basji
state-backed militia and
students.... Elsewhere, students
found themselves barred from entry
if they had been identified as
being involved in previous
protests":
"These attacks constitute a fully
fledged crime and a blatant
violation of all humanitarian and
international laws that
criminalise attacks against
civilians"--- Sudan Doctors
Network:
"[W]e will not tolerate behavior
that targets or demeans any
community based on their faith,
background, or immigration status
— particularly from our own
members" -- City Council Speaker
Julie Menin:
"Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty
identified the journalist as
Shinnosuke Kawashima":
Founder Alaa Shehada says that in
London "he gets solemn and
supportive 'mmmm's' instead of
laughs – the audiences mulling
over it, perhaps laughing later
when they’ve had time to think":
