    In their eyes, since they launched a preemptive strike against Iran, any retaliation is Iran doing what they preemptively striked them for.

    You know, like the cops that arrest you for no reason so they can charge you with resisting.

    153 girls killed by the US and Israel bombing an elementary school. Seems pretty provocative.

    Iran’s foreign minister Abbas Araghchi went on NBC News to discuss the war and was actually asked by co-anchor Laura Jarrett how Iran can justify striking US military bases in the region.

    “Why is attacking US military bases abroad justified?” Jarrett asked after Araghchi said that Iran will not seek long-range missiles capable of striking the United States.

    Corpo media is just truly broken. I don’t even think you can say it’s working for its intended purpose rn

      It’s trying to, but it’s making excuses for the inexcusable.
