You’re probably not going to see it reported many places in the Western press so you might as well see it here.
The U.S. military reportedly struck a wedding party Tuesday in its renewed bombing attacks on Iran, killing five people and wounding at least 60.

This is the type of military action, whether it was by accident or on purpose, that will only strengthen the Iranian people’s resolve against the American military operation and make the U.S. even more of an international villain in the eyes of people worldwide.
There is simply no legitimate national security objective for what the United States military is doing in Iran under orders from Trump. In fact, it’s the opposite. We are becoming an international pariah hated by most of the world, and that doesn’t help keep us safe as Americans in any way. If you are planning to travel internationally, I would advise you to hold off on those plans until tensions die down. Amerians are not going to be safe in foreign countries in the wake of Trump’s vicious assault on Iranian sovereign territory.
Meanwhile, you’ve got Secretary of State Marco Rubio making bizarre statements, warning other countries not to conduct trade with Iran. Rubio told Fox News anchor Brian Kilmeade:
How tone deaf could Rubio get? Under the leadership of this administration, there is no bigger sponsor of terrorism than the U.S. government.
The U.S. killed 165 Iranian school girls and their teachers on the first day of this war on February 28.
Also on February 28, U.S. Precision Strike Missiles (PrSM) struck the Iranian city of Lamerd, killing at least 21 civilians, including four children, and injuring approximately 100 others. Independent analyses by The New York Times, BBC Verify, and Airwars confirmed the use of U.S. missiles, which detonated in mid-air and sprayed tungsten pellets over a sports hall used by a volleyball team, an adjacent elementary school, and residential neighborhoods.
The Trump regime has not apologized or even acknowledged any of this civilian carnage. And until I hear an apology, I can only assume these were not accidental targets.

I’m not going to sugarcoat it, folks. They killed female volleyball players. They killed school girls. They killed teachers. They’ve bombed hospitals. They’ve destroyed bridges and power plants and they’ve weaponized our American dollar to create economic pain for countless civilians in multiple countries around the world, simply because we don’t like their governments. Now they’ve wiped out a wedding party in a residential home. You can say what you want about Iran, and we all know they are not ruled by good people, but the United States government right now is in no position to talk. The United States has the most bloodthirsty, warmongering government of any country in the world. Anyone who thinks this war on Iran is anything but evil needs to check themselves. Why do you think the Secretary of the U.S. Army, General Dan Driscoll, just resigned, following other high-level military resignations this year? They don’t want to be a party to this illegal and unwinnable war.
And anyone who thinks these repeated bombings of civilians will do anything but harden the Iranian people against us is living in Trump’s deranged world of make-believe American Golden-Age greatness. This is not how great nations act.
Pray for peace but prepare for war. Because when the inevitable payback comes our way, it is going to more brutal than anyone would imagine possible.

Attack comes on the heels of the U.S. bombing of a girl’s school and a sports complex earlier in the war.
