The two-week “cease-fire” agreement between the US and Iran has postponed, for now, what would be an unhinged war crime of unprecedented horror by the fascist Trump regime as Trump threatened: “a whole civilization will die tonight, never to come back again…” His sick threat comes on top of blatant war crimes already committed, with 20 universities, 600 schools, medical facilities and crucial infrastructure bombed in a war whose launching was itself a war crime.
THE TRUMP REGIME IS A FASCIST REGIME THROUGH AND THROUGH. They have shredded the rule of law domestically and internationally. From masked gestapo agents rounding up masses of people—shipping tens of thousands of our immigrant sisters and brothers into warehouse concentration camps in the US and into countries where these detainees have no ties, while murdering fishermen in international waters, capturing and imprisoning the President of Venezuela, and now carrying out and threatening a genocide of historic proportion against Iran.
Trump threatening to obliterate a whole civilization, a country of over 90 million people, gloating in anticipation of committing mass murder: “Tuesday will be Power Plant Day, and Bridge Day, all wrapped up in one, in Iran. There will be nothing like it!!!…” are the ravings of a fascist who must not be allowed to rule for one day more. Such threats cannot be taken back. Damage has been done.
But we have a problem: COMPLICITY of the people of this country who are not filling the streets. In the face of genocide and fascism, this is COLLABORATION. Put simply, to stay home, to do nothing, to just post your outrage on social media and “like” the outrage of others is accepting the unacceptable. Not unlike the “Good Germans” of the 1930’s.
Trump’s war of aggression against Iran is illegitimate, illegal, and immoral. It Must Be STOPPED! And we—the people—must act to stop it. If you don’t see how the bombing and threats against Iran raise the danger of global—even nuclear—war, you are sleepwalking. The streets of this country should be filled with protest at every murderous assault on the people of Iran. In the name of HUMANITY, we cannot allow a fascist madman to keep his finger on the nuclear trigger for another day.
The Democrats will not act to stop this. In fact, just 10 months ago, Democratic Senate leader Chuck Schumer was calling Trump a chicken for not getting tough enough on Iran. Working and waiting for the midterms is delusional. No thinking person should expect the tyrant who instigated, and then pardoned, the January 6th insurrectionists to respect any election he loses. Worse than just delusional, it is complicity in the continuing slaughter of the illegitimate war on Iran.
There is still a chance to stop an unprecedented threat to the future of humanity. Let the world see our determination and courage to stop a great horror and hear our righteous demands:
Stop the US War on IRAN!
TRUMP MUST GO NOW!
IN THE NAME OF HUMANITY, WE REFUSE TO ACCEPT A FASCIST AMERICA!
