larry johnson has some wisdom to pass on concerning our new war you may want to consider;
Donald Trump and the neocons are wild with joy tonight over the murder of the Ayatollah Khamenei… This is just one more example of Western ignorance about the implications of the Ayatollah’s martyrdom. Let’s start with the fact that the Ayatollah is the one who issued the fatwa 36 years ago declaring that it would be a sin for Iran to build or use a nuclear bomb. So the West thinks that killing the one guy who has been the main obstacle preventing Iran from getting a nuclear weapon is a good idea?
The Shi’a communities across the region took to the streets to protest and mourn the Ayatollah’s passing. In neighboring Baghdad a large crowd of Shi’a are now trying to breach the Green Zone. Iraqi security forces are trying to hold them back. This assassination by the United States and Israel was intended to weaken the Islamic Republic and set the stage for regime change. I think it will have the opposite effect, i.e., strengthen support for the government and bolster the status of hardliners who have zero inclination to compromise with the West.
It is barely 24 hours since Israel and the US launched the decapitation strikes and Iran — within 90 minutes of the first attack — began launching counterstrikes targeting all US military installations and bases in the region. Last June, following the decapitation strikes, it took Iran almost 12 hours to pull itself together and launch missiles towards Israel. Today Iran has responded by hitting both Israel and key targets in Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Bahrain,Kuwait, Iraq, Jordan and the United Arab Emirates. An Iranian general appeared on Iranian TV and vowed to hit Israel and the US forces in the region with a new type of weapon.......more.......
nobody wants more wars for joos, especially this one;
This post is simple: it is an ongoing list of polls showing that a majority of the American people are opposed to taking military action against Iran.
All the polls are taken within the past two years (list updated on February 22nd 2026). This will be an ongoing list as more polls come out to show how unpopular a war with Iran would be.
2026 Polls
The Economist/YouGov Poll, Conducted From Feb 20 - 23, 2026 (1,551 U.S. Adult Citizens)
- Only 27% support military action in Iran with 49% against, a net -22% net support.
- If you remove Republicans, 65% of Democrats/Independents Oppose military actions versus just 12% support, which is a -53% net support.
- Only 29% support using military force to overthrow Ayatollah Ali Khamenei versus 39% who oppose.
- If you remove Republicans, 50% of Dem/Ind oppose versus on 16% support, net -34% support.............more.........
the orange man just sitting still and quiet would be a show if he could do it but what he's doing now is beyond a show. its the end of the empire potentially;
As the US and Israel launched an all-out war on Iran, they did so amid shrinking American public support.
As recently as last week, a YouGov poll found that just a quarter of Americans wanted a war against Iran.
On Friday, a Gallup survey showed American sentiment shifting decisively towards the Palestinian people and away from Israel.
Forty-one percent of Americans now sympathize more with the Palestinians, while 36 percent sympathize more with the Israelis, according to a new Gallup survey.
The poll reverses the firm’s findings from a year ago and confirms long-term trends.
Last year, a Pew survey indicated that more than half of people in the United States held a negative view of Israel – an 11-point surge since 2022, according to that organization..........more........
pcr clear and accurate as usual;
Has Netanyahu destroyed Trump’s presidency?
Paul Craig Roberts
I am happy to report that finally there is some good news. The latest Gallup Poll brings it to us. The poll shows that the attitude of Americans to the Israelis and the Palestinians has shifted and now favors the Palestinians. Little doubt this was brought about by the heartless cruelty toward Gaza civilians by the so-called “Israeli defense force.” Watching a genocide in which entire cities are destroyed, women and children are shot in the head intentionally by Satanic Israeli soldiers, denial by Israel of medicine, food and water for bombed-out Palestinian civilians, and statement after statement by members of the Israeli government that the intention is to dispel Palestinians from Palestine have all contributed to waking up America about the alleged “only democracy in the Middle East.” Perhaps the Israeli-Trump military attack on Iran yesterday will contribute to waking up the peoples of the Western world.
Americans have also noticed the growing curtailment of their free speech. In some states, such as Texas and Florida, an American citizen who criticizes Israel is disqualified from holding a state job or having a contract to supply the state with goods or services. Students critical of Israel’s behavior are expelled from university. Foreign students are deported if they criticize Israel or support Palestine. University professors are dismissed. Corporate and media employees are fired. It finally dawned on part of the American population that Israel is canceling the First Amendment to the US Constitution. It is easier for Trump to expel by deportation from America, a foreign student legally in the United States who protests the Israeli genocide of Palestine then it is for Trump to deport an illegal alien who has no right whatsoever to be present in the United States.
Additionally, Americans have noticed that president Trump represents Israel first and America afterward. It is an affront to national honor to have a president who kowtows to a foreign government...........more............
pcr speaks about the new war;
Israel Uber Alles
Paul Craig Roberts
During war, war propaganda, dominates over factual reporting, and even is turned by court historians into historical “fact” that prevails for years after the war is over. The current reporting on the Israeli-American attack on Iran is even more doubtful, considering the enormous lies we have been told by Israel and Trump.
According to Fox News, in the joint military surprise attack on Iran, Israel’s missiles targeted the Iranian leadership, and the American missiles attacked the Iranian missile sites. Israeli and American officials confirm that Israel succeeded in assassinating 40 more Iranian top leaders, including Supreme Leader Khamenei, leaving Iran without leadership.
Whether or not true, if this is a loss remains to be seen. Apparently, the Iranian leadership lacked the wits to see that an attack was imminent and continued in the negotiations that Trump was using a second time to set Iran up for a surprise attack, and the Supreme Leader made no effort to locate to a safe place. This is not a sign of Iranian intelligence.
It is likely that Iran will be defeated, the usual fate of a military that permits the strategic initiative to remain in the hands of the enemy, as Putin and Xi have also done. As Russia and China are too frightened to come to Iran’s aid, the defeat of Iran could also mean the end of BRICS and the New Chinese Silk Road. Russian and Chinese leadership are demonstrating that their support is purely verbal and means nothing.
Congratulations to Netanyahu, the Israel Lobby, and Israel’s American neo-conservative agents who are succeeding in the restoration of Israeli-American world hegemony. It seems that Israeli-American hegemony has no opponents capable of standing up to domination by the Israeli-American alliance, much less the pathetic Russian and Chinese governments. Russia and China will be knocked off one by one as they lack the intelligence to unite.
Once Trump has cleared the path for Israel, will Israel then turn on America?........https://paulcraigroberts.org/israel-uber-alles-2/
