Keira Knightley – „Official Secrets“ (2019)
Ein wichtiger Film, denn: „Das erste Opfer des Krieges ist immer die Wahrheit.“ – Und wer, sich traut sie auszusprechen, wird bekämpft. Mit Keira Knightley, Ralph Fiennes und Rhys Ifans. (ZDF, WH)
The "war" against #Gaza has been a single big war crime. It has left 200,000 people dead, among those 80,000 who died in direct combat and large numbers who starved to death or died from preventable diseases. The only other country in the #middleEast to have killed so many was #Iraq under #saddamHussein, but that was a country of 50 million, which leaves #Israel with a bad per-capita rate.
How are we providing them with weapons? How are they allowed to starve the #Palestinians to death?
Eine ethische Einschätzung der momentanen Weltlage und der "neuen" Rolle Europas in der Welt

The fall of Assad's regime has triggered a power vacuum in Syria, escalating regional instability, risking broader Middle East chaos and highlighting Japan's lack of urgency despite potential global repercussions. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/commentary/2024/12/22/world/syrians-learn-lessons-iraq/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #commentary #worldnews #syria #turnkey #iran #us #israel #russia #saddamhussein #basharassad
[Wikipedia] On 17 January 1991, Iraq initiated a missile campaign against Israel. Over the course of the next month, approximately 42 Scud missiles were fired into Israeli territory, primarily at the cities of #TelAviv and #Haifa.

#Afghanistan, #Syria & #Iraq were wars fought in the context of #saddamhussein #osamabinladen and #isis.
#russia invades #ukraine but #Israel can't rescue #hostages in #palestine?
Unfortunately, we've normalized #terrorists in every nation now. It's mearly a question of flavors.

Keira Knightley – Official Secrets (2019)
Dieses ist ein wichtiger Film, denn: „Das erste Opfer des Krieges ist immer die Wahrheit.“ – Und die, welche sich trauen sie auszusprechen, werden bekämpft. Katharine Gun wurde vor Gericht rehabilitiert. Julian Assange sitzt nach wie vor in Auslieferungshaft.
@ChrisO_wiki I remember #SaddamHussein house with golden taps.
these autocrats are insane.
Today in Labor History January 25, 2003: Fifty activists left London for Baghdad to serve as human shields. They intended to stop the U.S.-led coalition troops from bombing civilians. Kenneth O'Keefe, an ex-U.S. marine and Persian Gulf War veteran led the action. They called it the TJP (Truth Justice Peace) Human Shield Action to Iraq. He believed that thousands of human shields would make the invasion politically impossible. However, Saddam Hussein deported him several days before the invasion. And they never came close to attracting thousands of volunteers. At best, no more than 500 human shields made it to Iraq before the March invasion. None of the human shields died in the war. And the coalition forces did not destroy any of the sites where they were staying.
2003: #Iraq
"In 2003, the #UnitedStates invaded Iraq and overthrew #SaddamHussein’s government. As in Afghanistan, the U.S. attempted to establish an interim, transitional and more permanent government. The United States formally ended its war in Iraq in 2011. Since then, the country’s government structure has remained in flux."

I'm not sure if you know this but Al-Zawahiri was bin Laden’s leader. He was with Bin Laden all the way — the whole time. The #unitedstates killed him in Kabul, #Afghanistan in 2022.
As a veteran of Desert Storm 1 in the 90's I will say this. The war in #iraq was not a mistake. It was intentional. #saddamhussein was an enemy of the #unitedstates. I don't recall any #muslim nations defending Iraq in the 30 plus years we've been there.
Despite attempts by the Taliban to negotiate his arrest and extradition, the US invaded Afghanistan without provocation, leading to millions of deaths.
Cheney, Rice, and others in the admin would later run a conspiracy to convince the president, #ColinPowell, and the American people that there was a threat from #SaddamHussein in Iraq, leading the US to invade without provocation, leading to millions of deaths.
