RE: "The illusion of democracy shatters in wartime"
The statist regime called The United States Of America has been engaged in wars of aggression for the majority of time of which it has existed. Thus, I propose that what you describe as "the illusion of democracy" is in fact an inherent characteristic, inevitable outcome and required function of "democracy" (an involuntary governance structure that uses the threat of violence to coerce money from millions of people and then gives it to weapons manufacturers to engage in war crimes and racketeering operations).
It is the same here in the statist regime known as "Canada"... our tax money, taken using threats of violence, given to corporations that pillage the earth and mass murder civilians.
What people do not seem to realize (as they have been conditioned to wave flags and internalized implanted sociopolitical identities https://gavinmounsey.substack.com/p/implanted-sociopolitical-identities ) is that this is the Modus Operandi of All Involuntary governance structures on the planet. It does not matter if they call them selves "democracies" or use some other ism, if they use the threat of violence to extract money from you and the brainwashing techniques I describe in the post linked above, they are all inherently immoral and degenerative.
This is one of the many reasons why I advocate severing all ties that we can to these parasitic statist regimes, refusing to play their games, focusing our energy and skills locally to regenerate ecology, educate the youth, boycott the corporations and use our gifts to create Bio-cultural Refugia (that can weather the storm ahead and plant the seeds of hope and biodiversity to expand when the time is right).
I just shared this on Bluesky and Facebook. I hope other climate/enviro/wilderness activist writers will speak up against the horror happening in #Iran. They sure haven't (for the most part) about the #GazaGenocide.
Sharp summaries, thx, Max. fwiw the following bits from palestinechornicle.com ... "Iran’s IRNA news agency stated that the nuclear sites bombed by the United States “do not contain materials that could cause radiation.”"& "The Deputy Political Director of the Iranian Broadcasting Authority stated: “Iran had evacuated these sites, and we state frankly that there are no materials in them.”"
Thanks for the links, Mankh. It certainly seems like it would be easy to evacuate materials and people, given how long it's seemed obvious the sites would be targeted.
Be aware that this is not Adolph Bibi's War, or Trump's War. Way beyond the NeoCons, mostly Jews who were once leftists (??). This is the project that has been taught in synagogues here in the U$A and elsewhere. It has ALWAYS been about wiping out Arabs, and to give credence to this limited ideology like a Bernie Sanders attempts shows just how colonized the Judaic mind is.
Tactical nuclear weapon unleashed onto Lebanon? The Samson Option? This is a sick society, Jewish Israel, and the sickness of all those who paid spiritual and shekel support for that Jewish Murdering Raping Maiming Starving Thieving Polluting Poisoning Occupying State of Israel are part of the sickness.
Oh, those dirty rats, those dirty rats, as Jimmy Cagney might say:
"Oh, Black Rock, Oracle, all the Usual and Unusual Jewish Suspects will Come After you for your Tweets, Telegram stuff, and alas, who you associate with"
Pink Washing, Green Washing, Holocaust Industry, Hasbara, War Porn, man, where is Van Jones loving those Tomahawks when we need that green monster talking, my word? The Boy in the Uranium Laced Pajamas, the next flick out of Holly-Dirt.
It is the Century of the Jew, and that you can put your money on that. Any comments that attack anyone looking at 'their' religion, 'their' tribes, 'their' associates, 'their' lobbies, 'their' bankers, 'their' lawyers, 'their' rabbis, 'thei'r people, well, you might as well attempt to curate a murder of crows. There isn't any antisemitism as the "they" define "it."
.... The Jewish Raping Murdering Maiming Occupying Polluting Maiming Poisoning State of Israel, heil Hitler.
Breaking Bad News:
Israel has slammed a European Union report accusing it of potential human rights violations in Gaza and the occupied West Bank, calling the assessment flawed and baseless

David Lammy? We urge Iran to submit to our violence and beg for mercy because we are ready to commit crimes ... The UK wants it this way.
Israel has undeclared nuclear bombs. The US has launched a flagrantly illegal war of aggression against Iran to make sure Israel remains the only state with a doomsday weapon in the Middle East – that way, everyone else is under Israel's, and our, thumb.
More headlines:
JUST IN: Israel attacks ambulances in Iran, too. They used a drone against this vehicle in Najafabad, Isfahan.

“We urge Iran now to show restraint.”
The UK’s UN Ambassador, Barbara Woodward, spoke at the emergency UNSC session, adding that military action alone won’t deliver a lasting solution to “concerns about Iran’s nuclear program.”
“Any Iranian attack on US citizens or bases will be met with devastating retaliation,” US UN envoy Dorothy Shea warns at the UNSC, saying the time has come for the US to act decisively to defend its ally and interests.
Translated -- "We urge Iran to submit to our violence and beg for mercy because we are ready to commit crimes even worse than this one."

Well said, Gavin. You're absolutely right.
I just shared this on Bluesky and Facebook. I hope other climate/enviro/wilderness activist writers will speak up against the horror happening in #Iran. They sure haven't (for the most part) about the #GazaGenocide.
To their everlasting shame. Thank you, Janet.

Good point. And also reminds that the so-called mainstream news about what's happening may be deceptive or a complete fabrication.

Don't believe a single word that comes out of that man's mouth.
Really? He lies? 🤣 🤣 🤣 i do believe that US forces attacked 3 nuclear enrichment sites, as he said.
