Piers Morgan brutally exposes how the Israel lobby hijacked American foreign policy. He reveals Trump abandoned his peace pledges to serve Israel, while unhinged Zionists like Mark Levin literally call anti-war conservatives "Nazis" for opposing the war.

WEICHERT: Whatever Pentagon and CENTCOM are saying publicly, behind the scenes Iran is still firing missiles. Qatar is talking force majeure, may shut off production, Saudis are selling gold to fund operations. Iran is still targeting the real center of gravity, the region’s economies. @WeTheBrandon

I talked to two Israeli sources on why Iranian launches continue to increase, despite US-Israeli claims that they have destroyed almost all of the launchers. Here is what they said: 1) The 90–95% drop in volume claimed by CENTCOM earlier in the month was probably a temporary lull as Iran repositioned its remaining launchers into hardened sites. Independent satellite analysis suggests that a significant portion of the "80% destruction" claimed by the IDF actually hit high-fidelity decoys. 2) Despite fewer launchers, the lethality per strike has increased. Iran's shift to cluster warheads has allowed a single missile to impact multiple locations simultaneously, compensating for the lower volume of launches 3) Iran has successfully set up mobile, underground units able to fire at steady rates. Iran used that quiet period to move their remaining ~100-120 heavy launchers into "Super-Hardened" facilities 4) Iran is utilizing its Zolfaqar and Dezful road-mobile launchers. These units move from hardened tunnels to pre-surveyed launch spots, fire, and return underground in under 10 minutes, often before coalition drones can re-task for a strike. 5) Because these launching units are decentralized, it is very hard for US and Israeli intelligence to get info on them. Israel and the United States do not have an answer to this problem. That is why they are trying escalation on energy sources instead. But that is backfiring.

I can't get over the fact that Dune is about an oppressed people fighting for their homeland, waging a jihad to bring down a hegemonic empire by threatening to cut off the flow of their most precious commodity after the empire had assassinated their religious leader's father.

🚨 Pregnant woman among four Palestinians killed in West Bank as Israel says it is conserving interceptors amid cluster munitions A pregnant Palestinian woman was among four killed in an occupied West Bank town near Hebron, the Palestinian Health Ministry said. Al Jazeera reported a submunition from an Iranian cluster-type munition appeared to have struck the site. The Israeli military said it is sometimes choosing not to intercept such bomblets to conserve interceptor stockpiles, as Tehran increasingly uses cluster warheads, according to The Times of Israel. 🔸 The woman, 32-year-old Asil Samir Masalmeh, was six months pregnant and died a day later from her wounds. 🔸 The strike killed four women in total and wounded at least eight others, the Palestinian Red Crescent said, marking the first Palestinian deaths in the war. 🔸 Palestinian authorities said the casualties were caused by missile fragments, though it remains unclear whether they came from an Iranian missile, an Israeli interceptor, or a submunition. 🔸 Israeli officials said the small bomblets are “unlikely to cause significant harm” if civilians are in shelters, leading the Air Force to allow some to fall rather than expend short-range interceptors. Palestinians in the occupied West Bank generally lack access to bomb shelters. 🔸 Iran has launched more than 350 ballistic missiles since the war began, with Israeli assessments indicating roughly half carry cluster warheads that disperse 24 to 80 bomblets over a wide area. 🔸 The bomblets have caused casualties. The Times of Israel says at least nine deaths have been linked to cluster impacts, including an elderly couple in Ramat Gan, a foreign worker, and the four women in the West Bank. 🔸 Palestinian authorities said the casualties were caused by missile fragments, though it remains unclear whether they resulted from an Iranian missile, an Israeli interceptor, or a submunition.

Today I$rael tried to kill me in a targeted airstrike in southern Lebanon as I was reporting on was the targeting of bridges and the forced displacement of 1 million people, an ethnic cleansing operation on a larger scale than the Nakba I have absolutely no doubt that this was deliberate. Despite claims there were no warnings ahead of the strike and no notifications sent to the Lebanese Army who allowed us to film As we have seen in Gaza they want to silence journalists who document and report their war crimes It is the western powers who provide political and military support for I$rael, arming it to the teeth to carry out genocide in Gaza and ethnic cleansing here in Lebanon. They are not simply complicit, but active participants and should be held accountable for their actions. But if I$rael thinks today’s strike will silence us and keep us out of the field they are very, very mistaken

.@joekent16jan19 goes to the heart of the matter: Without addressing America's imbalanced relationship with Israel, the current war won't end and a deal with Tehran cannot be found. "The main issue is that the Israelis are out of control, and they are driving this entire war."

That’s pretty disgraceful. In a democracy, screening a film is a reflection of our society’s freedom of expression and has nothing to do with government to government relations. This practice of banning films or books because of the offence they might cause to foreign countries must stop immediately. It’s unworthy of a mature democracy. #HindRajab

Piers Morgan finally corners an Israeli spokesman on live TV about their secret nuclear weapons. He brutally exposes the hypocrisy of Israel demanding total transparency from Iran while refusing to admit they have their own illegal nuclear arsenal.

De Niro: It doesn’t matter if you’re a Democrat, a Republican, or an Independent—no one, no one voted for new wars. No one voted for higher prices at the pump. No one voted for higher prices in grocery stores. No one voted for higher prices in the housing market. No one voted for deporting our good neighbors, and no one voted for government-masked thugs shooting down our citizens in the streets.

Rep. Jim McGovern@RepMcGovern·
23 years ago tonight, in an Oval Office address, George W. Bush announced the start of the Iraq War. 4,492 American service members were killed in the years that followed. 32,292 were wounded. At least 200,000 Iraqi civilians died. The humanitarian impact was immense. America wasted 9 years and 3 trillion dollars on a war that never should have happened—a war predicated on a lie, pushed by warmongering neocon politicians, and paid for by everyday people. Imagine what that $3 trillion could have bought here at home. Imagine the decade we could have spent focusing on America, our people, our place in the world. Imagine the lives our service members, stolen from us, would have lived. But instead, the president took us to war. Yet another costly quagmire in the Middle East. I voted against the Iraq War. I knew the White House would lie to Members of Congress and voters alike to manufacture the pretext for a conflict—and they did. Now, Iran is shaping up to be Iraq 2.0—new lies, new bloodthirsty politicians, still paid for by American families. Yesterday, we learned that Trump wants another $200 billion for his war. That's after Congress already gave the Pentagon more money than it even asked for in the budget. Enough is enough. It is not too late to learn from the past. Stop this madness. Bring our troops home. End this war.

Nowruz Mubarak to all the Iranian Americans who call New York City home! It was an honor to celebrate Charshanbeh Soori with so many of you in anticipation of spring, renewal, and - now especially - the enduring hope of a new day for the Iranian people. 
Nowruz is typically a time of good feeling, but this year is different. I continue to stand in opposition to this war, and I wish as many moments of joy as possible for all Iranians observing this special holiday.
