Iranian state media is reporting that Iran has closed the Strait of Hormuz in response to Israeli attacks on Lebanon, which have continued today.

Israel has said a ceasefire struck between the U.S. and Iran late yesterday doesn’t include its war with Hezbollah in Lebanon, where it launched its largest co-ordinated strike in the war to date.The Lebanese Health Ministry said 112 people have been killed today.

Most stranded oil and gas tankers remained inside the Persian Gulf.

      Correct. Palestine should be fully reinstated, and all peoples, Gazans and Jews, should have equal status as citizens. One state solution.

      It sickens me that more American politicians still think a two state solution is best.

      Honestly if Israel spends their defensive weapons, I could see their enemies taking advantage and attacking.

      I really love the bullshit “doesn’t Israel have the right to exist” question, as if they care about anyone’s right to exist, fuck off and cease existing yourself already Israel

        I felt that way until i learned about the history and colonization of Israel. Most people in the U.S. don’t know that much about that region. They just see a supposed ally that occasionally gets attacked.
