The Pasteur Institute has been an icon of Iran’s health care system, a symbol of modern Iran, established a century ago along with foundational health and education institutions. Destroying it could have no other purpose than assaulting Iran’s history, erasing the history of its modernization and development—take Iranians back to the Stone Age.

When you’re threatening to reduce civilian living conditions in a foreign country to stone age levels, you need to ask yourself some questions.

Israel's goal in this war is to ensure that Iran becomes a failed state. Complete state collapse. Since Trump has no plan of his own, by default he is following Israel's lead. Hence Trump's comments about bombing Iran back to the stone age...

Pasteur Institute of Iran, a 105-year-old medical research center founded in partnership between the Imperial State of Iran and the Paris-based Institut Pasteur, has been destroyed in airstrikes by the United States and the Israeli regime. Horrifying scenes from Tehran

More than 1,000 international law experts (myself included) warn that U.S. strikes on Iran violate the U.N. Charter (no evidence that Iran posed an imminent threat that could justify a self-defense claim) and may be war crimes (attacks on civilian sites). trib.al/lyTCOJB

Trump says he “terminated” the 2015 nuclear deal because it sent money to Iran while neglecting to mention he’s allowed Iran to sell billions of dollars in oil just this week.

Important acknowledgment here. Yes, Israel is a great ally in… advancing Israel’s interests, not the US’s. There’s a massive DC think tank/advocacy machinery dedicated to pretending Israeli and US interests are identical, which they are not, as this war is showing conclusively.

Good point, Robert Kagan! On Israel as a “great ally” against Iran: “It’s kind of like saying South Vietnam was a great ally in the fight against North Vietnam.” From 16:20: youtube.com/watch?v=WqNVsa…

Carter Doctrine, over. Transatlantic alliance, in tatters. US global reputation, pariah status. Great job following Israel’s lead here!

Trump wants European powers to help open the Straits of Hormuz, but why on earth should they? They were not consulted about this war, and they cannot make much of a military difference. As far as they are concerned, this is Trump's debacle.

Important: The threat of American military force has lost its potency in the US-Iran equation. This fundamentally changes the dynamics between the US and Iran. The US can no longer approach diplomacy as a matter of dictating terms - it has to be real give and take

It’s not a stretch to call the war in Iran one of the most unpopular in U.S. history. The American public never bought the notion that Iran was an imminent threat; Trump made no attempt to build a persuasive case (because there wasn’t any) and Congress never authorized it.

(Reuters) - Two-thirds of Americans believe that the U.S. should work to end its involvement in the Iran war quickly, even if that means not achieving the goals set out by the Trump administration, a Reuters/Ipsos poll found. Some 66% of respondents to the poll, conducted Friday through Sunday, voiced that view, while 27% said the U.S. should work to achieve all its goals in Iran, even if the conflict goes on for an extended period. Six percent did not answer the question. Among Trump's Republicans, 40% supported ending the conflict quickly even if it did not achieve U.S. goals, while 57% supported a longer involvement. The month-long war has spread across the Middle East, killing thousands of people and has hit the global economy with soaring energy prices, fuelling global inflation fears.

Hormuz was open to the world. This crisis followed U.S.–Israeli strikes on Iran and the retaliation that disrupted shipping. Allies lose trust, markets stay volatile, and the Gulf pays the price for a war it didn’t start. De-escalation is the only path to reopening the strait.

By letting Israel decide how the war should be run, Trump has made the US complicit in bombings of orphanages. Yes, you read that right. The US and Israel are bombing orphanages in Iran.
Sana Noor Haq • سناء نور حق@sananoorhaq

At least two people have been killed by a US-Israeli strike on an orphanage west of Tehran, Iran’s semi-official Fars News Agency reported Monday, as human rights advocates warned against the scale of destruction. Five others were injured in the attack on a newly built orphan charity complex in the city of Fardis, about 25 miles west of Tehran, the agency quoted a regional official as saying. Rights groups have condemned the number of civilians and children killed in US and Israeli strikes and the targeting of educational establishments and residential areas. In Iran alone, strikes have killed at least 230 children and injured a further 1,800, the state-run Islamic Republic News Agency reported on Sunday. On Friday, the UN human rights chief escalated calls for the White House to publish an investigation into a likely US strike on an elementary school in Minab, southern Iran, on the first day of the war that Iranian media said killed 168 children and 14 teachers – the single deadliest attack so far. “The images of bombed-out classrooms and grieving parents showed clearly who pays the highest price for war: civilians with no power in the decisions that led to conflict,” Volker Türk, the UN high commissioner for human rights, told a Human Rights Council meeting last week.
