48 hours to WWIII? and What you can do
It is hard to come-up with adjectives to describe the lunatic president of the US who is a puppet of Netanyahu (Epstein Mossad files), another lunatic who just noted that Jesus Christ does not have an advantage over Genghis Khan. Israeli colonial settlers went on a rampage yesterday torching property in nine Palestinian villages while destroying Lebanon and starving Gaza. Now Iranian missiles arrive here with no sirens since most US/Israeli detection radars were knocked out.
Desperate flailing Trump just threatened to attack Iran’s energy infrastructure within 48 hours, a country of 93 million people! Iran in turn, said that if this happens, the infrastructure tied to the US and Israel will be attacked (energy and water desalination). Global starvation and destruction to follow (see links below). As I and many others have demonstrated for years, the apartheid genocidal regime will drag the US and potentially the world to ruins. It is a suicidal, genocidal, and ecocidal regime. The ongoing Zionist onslaught on Gaza that accelerated in 2023 with total destruction and genocide indeed unleashed a chain of events that only the one God (Allah in Arabic to Christians and Muslim) (if you believe) knows where they leads. No one predicted the course of WWI or II when they were unleashed.
But as I always pointed out this war, unlike all others, will not have people who declare themselves winners. While all wars are lose-lose scenarios, this war will mean the end of civilisation as we know it. Cockroaches maybe the only winners (resistant to nuclear radiation). The public and anyone in authority in the Arab world, in the US, in the whole globe (including Israelis) need to wake up to the imminent danger we face globally.
