Click on Owen Jones 'An economic tsunami which will change our lives forever, which will change the course of our history forever. Seems to be very little understanding or awareness of this. Although Italy's defense minister has said he is losing sleep. He says, sorry, he says he cannot sleep because of his awareness of what is about to come. Now that's the consequences of the US/Israeli illegal war in Iran. A catastrophe which will prove the biggest strategic defeat for the United States since its emergence as a superpower. Perhaps proving the final kill or blow for American hegemony. Now before we come on to that, it's worth noting Donald Trump's latest threats because that's obviously linked. He says the United States of America is in serious discussions with a new and more reasonable regime to end our military operations in Iran. truly bizarre spin given in actual fact the US/Israeli assassinations of Iranian leaders means that the Iranian regime is now more hardline than it was before. It's also benefited from its base being consolidated because of a backlash within Iranian society. For some reason, ordinary Iranians don't like being pummeled with bombs from the air. But he goes on to say this, "Great progress has been made, but if for any reason the deal is not shortly reached, which it probably will be, and if the Hormuz Straight is not immediately open for business, we will conclude our lovely stay in Iran by blowing up and completely obliterating all of their electrical generating plants, oil wells, and Kharg Island, and perhaps all desalination plants, which we have purposefully not yet touched. This will be in retribution for our many soldiers and others that Iran has butchered and killed over the old regime's 47-year reign of terror. Now, to be clear, what he's talking about here is committing grave war crimes, obscene war crimes. There's literally just boasting about violating the rudimentary basics of international law governing the conduct of warfare.Now, we saw the normalization of war of war crimes with Israel's genocide of the Palestinian people. And because of the lack of outrage over what Israel has done, as we warned many of us at the time, this would simply normalize barbarism. And that's what we're seeing because now Donald Trump can just willy-nilly attack, you know, suggest war crimes, threaten war crimes. No outrage. It's not described as threatening war crimes by most media outlets, not by our politicians. You know, any pretenses of saving the Iranian people gone. Because what he's suggesting here would devastate Iranian society. It would have a catastrophic impact on the lives of ordinary Iranians. It would take many years to recover from such a catastrophic attack......'
