| second: At the basis of fascism’s appeal for its followers, Camus argues, is an aggrieved sense of entitlement. The far right’s recruits feel cheated by the world, with progressive causes favouring “others” (minorities, liberals, Jews, Muslims, etc.) at their expense. [go to link] |

| second: At the same Tuesday press session in which he mused on the “worst case,” Trump said that he’d been told about a few possible successors to the ayatollah who might be friendlier to Western interests, but they were killed in U.S.-Israeli bombing raids too. “Now we have another group” of potential replacements, he went on, but “they may be dead also, based on reports. … Pretty soon, we’re not going to know anybody.”
This was another hair-raising remark, all the more so because Trump didn’t seem to realize he’d made a staggering admission of his failure to plan ahead. He had killed the puppet government! [go to link] |
| second: In his efforts to make his war on Iran seem thought through and sensible, President Donald Trump is only bolstering the case that it was spun from pipe dreams all along.
The most head-spinning confirmation came on Tuesday, when a reporter asked what would be the war’s worst-case scenario. “I guess,” Trump replied, “the worst case would be we do this and somebody takes over who’s as bad as the previous person—right? That could happen.”
The president may have thought he was coming off as a hardheaded realist, but in fact he looked more irresponsible than ever. [go to link] |

| second: MAGA critics of Trump’s new military conflict say they’re struggling to reconcile it with his “America First” principles and long record of criticizing costly and protracted American military interventions.
“I think to them it feels legitimately like a betrayal on a fundamental tenet of Trumpism.” Calling them losers, Trump has dismissed the idea that his critics could speak for the Make America Great Again movement: “MAGA is Trump,” he said in an interview with independent journalist Rachael Bade on Monday.

| second: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth took time from his Wednesday briefing to complain about the media coverage of President Donald Trump’s unauthorized war on Iran.
“When a few drones get through or tragic things happen, it’s front page news,” Hegseth said. “I get it—the press only wants to make the president look bad, but try for once to report the reality.”
In his remarks, Hegseth glossed over the reality that Trump and co. entered the conflict without congressional approval, can’t keep their war plans straight, and admitted that there was no evacuation plan for trapped civilians when bombing began. Hegseth refused to give details on the cruel acts that have already been committed by U.S.-Israeli forces, the most extreme being a strike on a girls’ school in Iran on Saturday that killed up to 168 people, many of them children.

| 6ixStringJack: “The position of the Government of Spain can be summed up in three words,” said Sánchez in a televised address Wednesday morning. “No to war. Twenty-three years ago, another U.S. Administration dragged us into a war in the Middle East. A war which, in theory, was said at the time to be waged to eliminate Saddam Hussein’s weapons of mass destruction, to bring democracy, and to guarantee global security but.. it unleashed the greatest wave of insecurity that our continent had suffered since the fall of the Berlin Wall.” CORRECTION: The EU allowing 53 MILLION MUSLIMS in your borders since 9/11 is what unleashed the greatest wave of insecurity your continent has suffered since the fall of the Berlin Wall. |

| second: Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez doubled down on his refusal to become involved in the Iran conflict and rebuked U.S. President Donald Trump’s threat to cut off trade with Spain as a form of punishment.
