I don't know how long this will last, but all I hear is: Iran, Israel, America... as if Gaza doesn't exist, as if the world has forgotten the people suffering there.

If a regional war breaks out between Iran and Israel, Gaza will be forgotten. We will continue to suffer this suffering and will not be mentioned in anything. We will be forgotten forever.

I think it indicates a very specific sort of chauvinism to engage in open acts of aggression against another nation and immediately follow that with "We got what we wanted and now there can be peace". You'd need to think that your country is so mighty that your victim wouldn't even think of going to war with it, that they'd accept any peace offer no matter how disadvantageous or humiliating. The idea that you can de-escalate a situation through limited violence only makes sense if you think that you're capable of a lot worse and that the target both knows and fears this.

Either that or one thinks of their initial violence as clearly justified, and so makes an offer of de-escalation less because it's likely to be accepted and more so one can take the moral high ground when their victim rightfully retaliates. Either way, the fact Trump and his clique saw it as a good idea to directly attack Iran then immediately announce they wanted peace indicates a pretty distorted view of the US Empire's current degree of material and moral superiority in global geopolitics. It's the sort of action one takes when they are or want to assert themselves as undisputed hegemon; it's a bad idea to act like that when ones hegemony can be successfully disputed. I wonder how much longer until the USA's political leadership collectively realises that they're no longer living in the end of history

 I got a couple of movies from Netflix and they had these cool Halloween-themed mailers. Maybe I’m easily amused, but they’re kind of nifty!
