Empathy matters. We need to see that Iranian service men are no different than US ones. Just regular good people doing a job to have a life and family. There's no need for all the military ops the US has done. They just create suffering and rarely achieve goals.

🚨🇺🇸🇮🇷 BREAKING: Former CIA officer Josephine Gillio said"In Iran, 165 innocent little girls were killed by American Tomahawk missiles fired from destroyers." "I can say this as a former officer, 'We Are The Terrorists'."

@Glenn_Diesen @mmeJen The @FT is a war propagandist, trying hard to label even this as a worthy avd just war so more msy support it.

The US and Israel bombing nuclear plants was seemingly not considered a 'serious" escalation

Today was one of the most horrifying days of my life as an academic. Walking through Iran University of Science and Technology, a top-ranked public university in Iran, I was struck by the devastation. Only last month, this campus was alive with students, bustling between classrooms. Now, parts of the campus lie in ruins, classrooms shattered, hallways choked with dust and shattered glass. I saw the offices of professors burned. A newly renovated building, where students gathered for programs, for socializing, for life, destructed. One student, tearfully, told me: “My professor’s office was still burning a little. That’s where I used to wait for office hours. To ask questions. To appeal my grade.” This is the same university that launched Iran’s Omid and Zafar 2 satellites, symbols of homegrown technological achievement. A week ago, one of its professors was assassinated. Yesterday, they bombed it. From sanctions to targeted killings, to the bombing of research centers and universities, there’s a clear pattern: de-development & de-industrialisation/ the systematic dismantling of a nation’s indigenous development, its industrial base, its capacity to stand on its own. We will never forget that as the American and Zionist war criminals blatantly target universities, schools, hospitals/ assassinating professors and killing children, and after 2 years or genocice, western intellectuals are still debating whether or not to pass a symbolic, non-enforceable BDS resolution. Photos taken by me, full report incoming.

"This is what happens when an army built on the premise of its own civilizational superiority meets a people who simply refuse to accept that premise."

Hot new news! US government says an unknown hacker obtained full unredacted Epstein files early in 2023. Could this have been Russia with their hacking skills? Not impossible Trump is being blackmailed by both Russia and Israel. His current behaviour supports this.

A new paper says lifespan gains will be small due to our biology That’s true - if we don’t change. But if we can change our biological age, the equation changes In 1700, we couldn’t imagine moving faster than a horse. Biology ruled. Then came the steam engine 🚂 🏎️ 🚀…

@MaxBlumenthal Thank you for your work Max.

Targets the US-Israeli coalition bombed this week -A major reservoir in Khuzestan as Iran suffers drought -Amirkabir University of Technology in Tehran -Three major steel plants -Apartment blocks across Tehran, slaughtering masses of civilians -The Bushehr civilian nuclear reactor It's war of terror on the Iranian people

All attacks harmed Iranian civilians and their future. There's a segment of the population who needs to wake up, the US does not care about them. It sold the same lies to Iraq, Libya etc. It's their sanctions which made you poor. They care only for the elites with influence.

@SamaHoole @Rodney91100 @NutritionMadeS3 we all know the above post is very misleading. And does not remain "undisputed" as he claims, the opposite is true. We also have the Finnish study and multiple good/appropriate randomised and population studies. He has 120k followers on here is misleading.

India ran the most important cardiovascular study of the 20th century by accident, and then immediately forgot about it. In 1967, Dr. S.L. Malhotra published a study in the British Heart Journal examining heart disease rates among 1.5 million Indian railway employees. The population was extraordinarily useful for research purposes: same employer, same healthcare access, comparable income and working conditions, spread across the entire country. The only meaningful variable was geography. Which meant diet. North Indian railway workers: Punjab, Rajasthan, UP, ate a diet built around ghee and dairy fat. They consumed up to 19 times more fat than their southern counterparts. The fat was primarily saturated: clarified butter, milk fat, the short-chain saturated fatty acids that Ancel Keys had recently been telling the Western world were arterial death. South Indian railway workers ate a diet based on rice, sambar, and seed oils: groundnut oil and sesame oil, primarily. They ate considerably less fat overall. By the standards of dietary advice being formulated in the 1960s, they should have been the healthy ones. Heart disease mortality in South India: 135 per 100,000. Heart disease mortality in North India: 20 per 100,000. Seven times higher in the population eating seed oils. Among railway sweepers specifically, the lowest-paid, most physically active workers, the gap was even wider. Heart disease was fifteen times more common in the South Indian sweeper population than in the North Indian sweeper population. Malhotra controlled for everything he could reach: smoking, where Northerners actually smoked more. Activity levels, where the relationship was inconsistent. Socioeconomic status, where executives died more often than sweepers regardless of region. He found no variable that explained the gap except the type of fat in the diet. He published the data. In a peer-reviewed journal. In 1967. The study was cited periodically, acknowledged as methodologically interesting, and then set aside. The decade in which Malhotra published was the decade in which Ancel Keys's fat hypothesis was being converted into policy. The American Heart Association was issuing guidance recommending polyunsaturated vegetable oils as replacements for saturated animal fats. The food industry was producing seed oils at industrial scale. The infrastructure of seed oil promotion was being built, expensively and with great institutional momentum. A study showing that populations eating animal fat had a fraction of the heart disease of populations eating seed oils was not, in that context, a study that anyone particularly wanted to follow up. Nobody followed up. Almost sixty years later, the finding stands unrefuted in the literature. It is not in the dietary guidelines.

If they can nudge us and persuade us over time in some areas that suit them, they will.

I have added my key takeaway now to the article.

The key takeaway - Isreal/US incited a violent coup attempt with many deaths (Iran says 7K, some sources say as many as 30K). Like what many accused Trump of doing on the Capitol, but far worse in its scale/effort/sophistication. It failed anyway, needless loss of life.

Draft of my latest article. "The failed 3 phase plan to topple the Iranian regime" Isreal/US were behind the 7K-30K protest deaths by "Incitement of Insurrection". NYT supports! rentry.co/tfon6rd8 PS. Let me know if link fails for you, it may be banned on some ISPs.

Screen shot of article here (as the draft is small):

@TheDefiantGhost @truthrazor They abuse power as it is. That they can spy on us just makes that worse. All people hired have beliefs that makes them respect the authority that hires them. They then join a group that supports those beliefs.

Edward Snowden said it the best: "When you say 'I don't care about the right to privacy because I have nothing to hide,' that's no different than saying 'I don't care about freedom of speech because I have nothing to say.'" "Simply because you are following the law, doesn't mean that you'll be exempt from governmental interference in your private life."

A U.S. State department who mistreats other countries and lies and twists. This is a disgrace.
