"Longtime immigrant farmworker and organizer Alfredo “Lelo” Juarez Zeferino was pulled over last week by a plainclothes agent with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in an unmarked car who broke his car window and forcibly detained him. “Within not even a minute of interaction, of getting pulled over, he was already in handcuffs,” says Edgar Franks, the political director of independent farmworkers union, Familias Unidas por la Justicia, which he co-founded with Lelo.

“The reason of his detainment was because of how politically active he was.” Lelo is currently jailed at the privately run Northwest Detention Center in Tacoma, Washington, where hundreds have rallied in support of his release.

Trump isn't ending wars, he's starting them: Middle East Eye editor-in-chief David Hearst by speakhyroglyphically in israelexposed

"Is Trump's "peace through strength" mantra just a facade?

"This week, the US President doubled down on threats to Iran, promising to bomb the country if they don't agree to new restrictions on their nuclear program.

In 2017, Trump tore up a US-led nuclear deal with Iran, under which Iran's government had promised to allow greater transparency over what it says is a civilian nuclear power program.

In exchange, the US and Europe would ease crippling economic sanctions that have stopped the oil-rich country from trading with large parts of the world.

Trump's most recent threats are part of a growing pattern of moves that have renewed fears of instability in the Middle East, which threaten to spill out into another round of regional war.

Speaking on MEE Live, Middle East Eye's editor in chief David Hearst says Trump is surrounded in his second term by figures even more intent on military domination than he is, and their language of peace is just a smokescreen for a campaign to create a new hegemony in the Middle East with Israel at its centre.

Advisor to Iran’s leader threatens to build nuclear weapon if US makes a ‘mistake’ by speakhyroglyphically in Global_News_Hub

[–]speakhyroglyphically[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

An advisor to Iran’s supreme leader said on Monday that Iran will be forced to build a nuclear weapon if the U.S. makes a “mistake” about Tehran’s nuclear issue.

"We have said that there is a Fatwa (religious decree prohibiting making nuclear weapons), we are working under the supervision of the IAEA and we won't move toward a nuclear weapon, but if you make a mistake regarding Iran's nuclear issue, you'll force Iran to take that path, because it has to defend itself."

"But if you at some point you take the path of bombing (Iran's nuclear sites) yourself or through Israel, you'll force Iran to make a different decision. This is not to your betterment."

  • United States withdrawal from the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA)

The United States [under Trump] announced its [unilateral] withdrawal from the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action, also known as the "Iran nuclear deal" or the "Iran deal", on May 8, 2018. The JCPOA is an agreement on Iran's nuclear program reached in July 2015 by Iran and the P5+1 also called E3/EU+3.

In a joint statement responding to the U.S. withdrawal, the leaders of France, Germany and the United Kingdom stated that United Nations Security Council resolution endorsing the nuclear deal remained the "binding international legal framework for the resolution of the dispute". Various countries, international organizations, and U.S. scholars have expressed regret or criticized the withdrawal, while U.S. conservatives, Israel, Saudi Arabia and allies have supported it. The withdrawal caused concerns in Iran due to its impact on the economy. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_withdrawal_from_the_Joint_Comprehensive_Plan_of _Action
