dalla guerra in #Afghanistan in qua, gli Stati Uniti hanno usato le #ForeverWars per tenere costantemente a destra la barra della politica italiana,affinché la politica italiana privilegiasse aumento spesa militare e *missioni militari* anziché welfare

The 4 American troops killed during renewed fighting between the #US & #Iran in recent weeks are no longer listed as part of the #IranWar death toll in the #Pentagon’s official casualty count. They have been placed in a new, separate category Sunday. It raises questions about properly counting the impact to US service members as the #Trump admin has escalated strikes on Iran. #TrumpsWar #ForeverWars #law #Congress #WarPowers #geopolitics #NationalSecurity #MiddleEast

Though the votes forced by #Democrats are largely symbolic, they are meant as a strong signal to #Trump that his support on Capitol Hill is chipping away as the war drags on & lawmakers in both parties have questioned his admin’s endgame. #TrumpsWar #IranWar #ForeverWars #law #Congress #WarPowers #NationalSecurity #MiddleEast #economy #inflation #affordability #CostOfLiving #oil #energy #EnergyCrisis

The #Houthis, an #Iran backed group in #Yemen, claimed Wednesday that they had targeted 2 Saudi #oil tankers with missiles and drones. If the Houthis manage to block #SaudiArabia from using the #RedSea, they would be cutting off about 4% of the world’s oil supply & leaving Saudi Arabia, one of the world’s biggest producers, with very little access to global markets. #US #Iran #TrumpsWar #IranWar #ForeverWars #Trump #law #Congress #WarPowers #NationalSecurity #MiddleEast #economy #EnergyCrisis

“The conflict has entered a decidedly more dangerous phase,” analysts from RBC Capital Markets wrote on Wednesday. Even though #oil prices have risen a lot in recent weeks, “we still see them as a lagging indicator of the extreme pressure building in the region,” they added, forecasting that a “full regional #war” could send prices toward $150 a barrel. #US #Iran #TrumpsWar #IranWar #ForeverWars #Trump #law #Congress #WarPowers #NationalSecurity #MiddleEast #economy #EnergyCrisis

Despite Simmons’ comments, #Trump went on to make much the same claim as #Hegseth during an April 1 primetime address from the Oval Office. Trump said that “every single one of the people, their loved ones, said, ‘Please, sir, please, finish the job.’ Every one of them.” And Trump’s conduct surrounding these dignified transfers has also raised plenty of eyebrows. #kakistocracy #TrumpsWar #IranWar #US #Iran #ForeverWars #law #Congress #WarPowers #geopolitics #NationalSecurity #military #service

At the one earlier in March, #Trump wore a baseball cap that is for sale on his business’ website. And just days later, his PAC used a photo of that dignified transfer in a fundraising email. It featured Trump saluting with a flag-draped transfer case, which holds the remains of a soldier, in the foreground. #kakistocracy #TrumpsWar #IranWar #US #Iran #ForeverWars #law #Congress #WarPowers #geopolitics #NationalSecurity #military #service

Now #Trump is doing something similar by claiming the troops most recently killed “don’t want to see Iran have a nuclear weapon.” And everything that’s happened in these episodes makes very clear why∶ Because when troops die, Trump can’t help but think about it in terms of raw politics. #kakistocracy #TrumpsWar #IranWar #US #Iran #ForeverWars #law #Congress #WarPowers #geopolitics #NationalSecurity #military #service

Charles Simmons, the father of 28-year-old Tech. Sgt. Tyler H. Simmons, told NBC News “that was not something we talked about.” While Simmons had some kind words for #Trump & #Hegseth — & made clear he didn’t speak for other families — he said he had not urged them to keep fighting the #war. “No, I didn’t say anything along those lines,” he said. #kakistocracy #TrumpsWar #IranWar #US #Iran #ForeverWars #law #Congress #WarPowers #geopolitics #NationalSecurity #military #service

The #US military’s official tally of #deaths in the #IranWar has risen to 14 service members, with the death of a Navy pilot in a helicopter crash in early July in the Arabian Sea. The number of wounded troops from the conflict also has grown to >400 as of Monday. Capt. Tim Hawkins, spox for CENTCOM, said the majority of them suffered traumatic brain injuries. #kakistocracy #TrumpsWar #Iran #war #ForeverWars #Trump #law #Congress #WarPowers #NationalSecurity #economy

The revocation came hours after the British military said 3 tankers were struck by projectiles in the #StraitOfHormuz. They were the latest attacks targeting vessels moving through the fuel-shipping waterway that is central to negotiations seeking a permanent end to the #war between the #US & #Iran. #TrumpsWar #IranWar #war #ForeverWars #Trump #law #Congress #WarPowers #geopolitics #NationalSecurity #MiddleEast #economy #inflation #affordability #CostOfLiving #oil #energy #EnergyCrisis

Morning, all, President Donald Tantrump described going to war with Iran as a “massive and ongoing operation.” Shome mishtake? "Special Military Operation," shurely? It seems the only thing worse than awarding that Man Of Peace, Donald Trump, the Nobel Peace Prize is denying the Man-Toddler any hope of ever winning the Nobel Peace Prize... #Trump #GOP #MAGA #USpol#TyrantTrump #FelonTrump #WarCriminalTrump #WarMongerInChief #NoKings #ForeverWars
