I was briefed on the intelligence last week.
Iran posed no imminent threat of attack to the United States. Iran was not close to building a deliverable nuclear weapon. The negotiations Israel scuttled with their strikes held the potential for success.

The bombing of Iran was to support a nation conducting genocide.
The Australian government supports the bombing and thus the genocide.

"We're now in a position where we are relying on Iranian restraint...That's why these attacks were always incredibly risky and unnecessary."
"If that regime feels cornered and feels like it has no choice, then of course it's going to respond. That was always the danger." @emmashortis.bsky.social

The fog war is thick, but for all the talking points claiming “there was no other option” or that this is some brilliant play at forcing Iran to make a “deal” to prevent it from possessing nuclear weapons, never forget there WAS such a deal - it was unilaterally abandoned by Trump in 2018... (1/2)

Had @abcnewsbot.bsky.social on this morning while getting ready. How they humanised Israeli victims of the bombing in a way they haven't for victims in Gaza over the past 2 years. Amy McQuire has a video on this. The double standards are appalling.

I really think there needs to be more focus on the fact Israel is luring starving people out into open space with food, and then turning tankfire and machine guns on them.

Almost an entire day locked in on budgets orvproposals. So much still not ticked off though. Everything takes longer than you think it will. It feels like even simple requests take forever. It's neverending.
