"Five days of bombs, over 1,000 dead, and they’re quibbling over the word
war.' ...
When you fire missiles and drop bombs and the leader of a foreign nation is killed, along with much of its top political leadership, when a girls’ school is hit by a bomb and more than 160 schoolgirls die, when six U.S. service men and women are killed,"

"when a U.S. submarine sinks a foreign warship and sends it and more than 180 sailors to the bottom of the sea, when explosions topple buildings and civilians die in the fire and rubble, I thought, at least until today, that we could agree that we were waging war."

The hype that they have around murdering children, around turning cities into rubble is absolutely depraved. We need another word for depraved. It is sick and twisted."

in reply to William Lindsey • • •"We now have the faces and some of the names of the Iranian children who were killed in what apparently were double tap airstrikes by the U.S. and Israel. A clear war crime. Double tap means they hit it once and then as people tried to flee, they hit it again. And these are just six of the nearly 200 children who were killed as a result."

Bombing a school for girls. Killing nearly 200 little kids. Is that not a war crime?"

This is a real report.
