“The BBC respects freedom of expression but stands firmly against incitement to violence. The antisemitic sentiments expressed by Bob Vylan were utterly unacceptable and have no place on our airwaves…The team were dealing with a live situation but with hindsight we should have pulled the stream during the performance. We regret this did not happen.”

British state media is absolute trash. Everything that comes out of it should be considered false before proven otherwise by a reputable source.

Same, endeavorOS has been my default install for years now.

Distrowatch does their rankings by page hits, it’s not the best indicator of either usage or popularity.

After winning the Nobel peace prize, Obama dropped an average of 30k bombs / year (80 per day) during his presidency, mostly on Muslim countries, 2, 3. In 2016 alone, dropped 26,171 bombs in the Middle East and North Africa, up 3000 from the previous year. The countries bombed include Syria, Iraq, Yemen, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Libya, and Somalia.

The US must be brought to heel.

You seem to not be aware that Israel is another settler-colonial project, based on indigenous eviction and genocide, just like the US, Canada, Australia, etc.

I suggest watching these two vids :

Regime change dronies out in full force today. Banned a few of them below.

Rekt. Jesus the audacity of these reporters, pure snakes.

Is that a quote from somewhere?

US is moving navy to prepare for war with Iran

UN security council agrees to meet over Israel’s attacks on Iran.

Interesting to see how this will shake out, as 3 / 5 ( US, France, and UK) will likely back Israel, with Russia and China backing Iran

France (Germany also) defends Israeli attack, condemns Iran. How’s it going, “enlightenened democracies”?

50m ago from aljazeera:

Iran requests emergency meeting of UN Security Council Iran has requested an emergency meeting of the UN Security Council in the wake of Israeli attacks targeting its nuclear programme and military this morning, state media report.

Amir Saeed Iravani, Iran’s permanent representative to the UN, made a written request for an emergency meeting of the council, calling for it to take “decisive action … against these criminal acts”, Iran’s Tasnim state news agency reported.

“In a reckless, illegal and premeditated act, the Zionist regime has carried out a series of coordinated military attacks against the nuclear facilities and civilian infrastructure of the Islamic Republic of Iran, which are considered a clear violation of the UN Charter and the fundamental principles of international law, and whose dangerous consequences seriously threaten regional and international peace and security,” the letter said.

I highly recommend watching the documentary Zero days which is almost a decade old now, but about stuxnet.

It was mainly developed by Israel and the US specifically to target this very facility (natanz), and try to blow up nuclear centrifuges and slow down Iran’s nuclear enrichment program.

The project failed (only managed to slow down their program for a few months) and was a prime case of blowback, since stuxnet infected critical infrastructure around the entire world, and even the US had to devote considerable resources protecting their systems from a virus they helped create.

I believe there’s a pretty low chance of any meltdowns or nuclear events, due to so many fail-safes.

One of the al-jazeera posters thinks that’s unlikely, and it’s more likely that Israel is having a “now or never” moment since Trump entered negotiations with Iran.

At least some US leaders knew about these strikes beforehand:

Stickying this for now, as aljazeera seems to be doing the best live updates.
