I am pro Iranian people. I stand with them against their own government’s repression AND against the imperial violence in the form of bombs dropped from the sky from Israel & the US who have already killed hundreds. I support neither imperialism or dictatorship. Sahar Delijani said it best:

I was born in an Iranian prison. My parents were held in their jails. My uncles lie in their mass graves.
Nothing you can tell me about the crimes of the Iranian regime that I haven't lived in blood and bone.
That doesn't mean I want my people bombed, maimed, killed, their homes in ruins.
If your vision of liberation comes only through the destruction of innocent lives, then it's not freedom you're after.
Sahar Delijani, Iranian author

May the palaces of UAE shatter - shaped from stolen Sudanese gold, relying on exploited and beaten migrant labourers, built on the betrayal of normalization, and marketed for the gluttonous global elite who will quickly abandon Emirati capital as quickly as they evacuated Burj Khalifa today.

There is no "immigration problem" There is no migrant problem There is no problem with illegals There is no border crisis Only a problem of the border and the machinery of death that upholds it.

The Environmental Quality Authority in Palestine reports over 85,000 tonnes of bombs dropped by Israel in Gaza. That’s equivalent to six Hiroshima atomic bombs on a strip of land smaller than Detroit. Almost all of those bombs were supplied by our government, paid for by our tax dollars. via IMEU
