#Biden calls #America’s democratic values the “grounding wire of our global power” & its #alliances “our greatest asset.” …#Trump, called for withdrawing American forces in #Europe & #Asia & has promised… to cut loose even our closest #allies if they don’t do as he tells them. …Trump sees all countries as unreliable, the relations between them #transactional. That sentiment has spread throughout a #GOP that once championed America’s values abroad…
During his 40 months in office, events have tested #Biden’s vision of American world leadership. #Alliances haven’t been enough to win a new European #war in #Ukraine. US #power & leverage haven’t prevented a #humanitarian catastrophe in the #MiddleEast, marked by alleged #WarCrimes. #Putin is trying to assemble an axis of #autocrats from #Tehran to #Beijing. In #China, the US faces an adversary potentially its equal in economic & military power intent on tearing down the American #GlobalOrder.
Sina Yousefi, a lawyer, announced the assassination attempt of a lawyer by publishing pictures on social media and wrote:
Afshin Ghasemi, who is a prominent human rights lawyer and a member of the Central Bar Association, was attacked today at around five in the evening by armed and unknown people.
He had previously been threatened by unknown agents related to the case party for taking charge of a case in which there were accusations of #rape against women.
It is said that the assailants were three people armed with firearms and cold weapons, who rode in a "Persia" car (without license plate) in an almost busy area and assaulted this lawyer.
At the same time as the international day of lawyers at risk (2024) is dedicated to Iranian lawyers, the government of Iran does not take any security and legal measures to prevent the murder and assassination of lawyers, but puts their lives under threat with propaganda measures against lawyers. #Hamava #woman life of freedom #HumanRights#Terrorism#IRI #Politics

سوقصد به جان افشین قاسمی، وکیل دادگستری
سینا یوسفی، وکیل دادگستری با انتشار تصاویری در شبکه اجتماعی از سوءقصد به جان یک وکیل خبر داد و نوشت:
افشین قاسمی وکیل دادگستری و عضو کانون وکلای مرکز امروز در حدود ساعت پنج عصر مورد سوقصد افراد مسلح و ناشناس قرار گرفت.
ایشان قبلاً بخاطر بر عهده گرفتن پرونده‌ای که در آن اتهامات #تجاوز به زنان وجود داشت، مورد تهدید از سوی عوامل ناشناس و مرتبط با طرف پرونده قرار گرفته بود.
گفته می‌شود ضاربین سه نفر فرد مسلح به سلاح گرم و سرد بودند که سوار بر خودروی پرشیا (بدون پلاک) در یک منطقه تقریبا پر رفت و آمد اقدام به ضرب و جرح این وکیل دادگستری نموده‌اند.
همزمان با اختصاص روز جهانی وکلای در معرض خطر (۲۰۲۴) به وکلای ایران، حکومت ایران هیچ اقدام تامینی و قانونی در راستای جلوگیری از قتل و سوقصد به وکلا انجام نمی‌دهد بلکه با اقدامات تبلیغی علیه وکلا، جان آنها را در معرض تهدید قرار می‌دهد. #هم‌آوا #زنزندگیآزادی
According to #Iran's Tasnim News Agency, #Tehran has provided #Yemen's Houthis with a type of medium-range sea-launched ballistic #missile, called #Ghadr.
The Israeli military has conducted missile strikes against Iran, a snr #UnitedStates#military ofcl told NPR Thurs. There are also reports of explosions in #Iraq & #Syria.
Iran's Fars News Agency says explosions were heard in the central city of #Isfahan, according to the Reuters News Agency.
The extent of Israel's strikes & the weapons used weren't clear.
Flights to #Tehran, #Isfahan & #Shiraz have been suspended following reports an explosion was heard in the city of #Qahjavaristan, Iranian state media reported.
Iranian regime supporters carrying IRI , Hezbollah and palestinian flags celebrating the retaliation by #IRGC againat #Israeli targets in streets of #Iran's capital #Tehran.
Mehr News Agency citing Iran's defense minister: All air traffic to and from #Tehran have been halted due to military maneuvers starting from midnight.
CBS News: "The U.S. has picked up intelligence that Iran is planning a retaliatory attack that would include a swarm of Shahed-136 loitering drones and cruise missiles. Officials say the timing and target are unknown, but a proportional response to the #Damascus attack would be to hit an Israeli diplomatic facility. The attack is likely to come between now and the end of #Ramadan next week.
Another important unknown is where the drones and missiles would be launched — from Iraq or Syria, which could prompt a thin claim of deniability by #Tehran — or from Iranian territory."
It's sickening to read all the garbage posts about Iranian attack against Israel which has absolute 0 intelligence value, but perfect propaganda tool, draw attention away from horrendous war crimes of Israel in and around Al Shifa hospital and the murder of #WCK volunteers.
And forgot about the fact that Israel literally declared war on Iran and there are no "proportional" response to such declaration than an all out war.
That is exactly what Netanyahu has been dreaming about so #GenocideJoe and "defensive" #NATO comes to his rescue.
