It is a horrid stain on the US that it has never once held any president responsible for the vast economic and war crimes they have committed. — PolitiTweet.org
jeremy scahill @jeremyscahill
The US has waged a campaign of terror against Iraq and Iran for more than six decades. Coups, invasions, bombings, sanctions, support for despots and death squads. Trump is now broadcasting his intent to commit more war crimes. None of this is happening in a history-free vacuum. — PolitiTweet.org

While warning us that Trump is the gravest threat in US history, many leading Democrats have voted to give Trump unprecedented military budgets and sweeping surveillance powers. — PolitiTweet.org

Sidebar: since 2010, Blackwater founder Erik Prince has been pitching a plan for mercenaries to be used in a war against Iran. This White House actually listens to that maniac and his pitches. — PolitiTweet.org
jeremy scahill @jeremyscahill
US politicians who begin their statements justifying the death of Suleimani are by default supporting a catastrophic and illegal drive to war. And the people who will pay the price will overwhelmingly be Iranian and Iraqi civilians. — PolitiTweet.org
jeremy scahill @jeremyscahill
There’s no justification for assassinating foreign officials, including Suleimani. This is an aggressive act of war, an offensive act committed by the US on the sovereign territory of a third country. Consistent with more than half a century of US aggression vs Iran and Iraq. — PolitiTweet.org
jeremy scahill @jeremyscahill
The US Congress has intentionally never legislated the issue of assassination. Instead, the policy has been to “ban” assassination through executive orders. This has allowed all US presidents to assassinate people with impunity. Congress has always declined to address it. — PolitiTweet.org
jeremy scahill @jeremyscahill
The assassination of Suleimani is one of a small handful of actions the US could have taken that would almost guarantee war. This is a nuclear option advocated by the most dangerous and extreme players in the US foreign policy establishment with that exact intent. — PolitiTweet.org
jeremy scahill @jeremyscahill
A major part of the motive for the scorched earth genocidal bombing of Yemen was to draw Iran into military conflict. Obama started it and Trump colluded with the Saudis, UAE and Israel to escalate it. Obama was played by Saudi Arabia, but Trump outsourced US policy to Israel. — PolitiTweet.org

Much like the neocons came to power in 2001 with a predetermined agenda for regime change in Iraq, the Trump administration had Iran in the sniper scope from the jump. This was at the center of the collusion scandal, largely ignored by the US media, with Israel and Saudi Arabia. — PolitiTweet.org
