"I can't, simply, keep track of the number of cities that are being attacked. It is getting to be a very long list now. ... All across the country you have cities ... that have been targeted. It seems to be that this is no longer just a campaign that is focused on nuclear sites in Iran. This is a very wide range of targets, including government facilities, defence ministry facilities and also the Iranian army and the Iranian national guard."
- Mohamed Vall, Al Jazeera correspondent in Tehran
"Donald Trump has made an appeal and said to the police and to the Republican Guard to 'Lay down your weapons: if you don't, it's likely that you will die.' The problem he's got is that his message isn't getting much beyond the borders here in the United States—maybe even around the world but it's not getting into Iran. He cut back Voice of America, which had a big Farsi services—which would've broadcast the words of Donald Trump."
- Alan Fisher, Al Jazeera chief US correspondent, in Washington
Marked shift in the tone of Al Jazeera coverage now the U.S. is awake.
This is part of the problem.
Listening to Netanyahu's latest speech. Same talking points as Trump earlier, about how the Iranian people are getting the support they've been asking for, how this is their rare opportunity to rally in the streets to overthrow their leaders and free themselves from tyranny. How the nations reported to have bombed a school today are "with them."
If anyone was still in any doubt about whether anyone was pouring fuel on the recent Iran protests, hopefully that's been cleared up for them today.
Apparently Netanyahu has some important elections coming up in a couple of months. 👀
By the way, now the biggest U.S. vessels are tied up within firing distance of Iran, who's defending the first island chain? Anyone know? 🤔
"I think we made a big mistake in killing Khamenei. He's now a martyr, and if Ali Larijani is still alive, he is a very competent person. ... Now whether the administration hopes he'll be the equivalent of Delcy Rodríguez in Venezuela and negotiate—I don't think so. But I'm not sure because we've killed all the leadership of Iran that's going to make them more negotiable."
- Harlan Ullman, Killowen Group
"Look, from a military perspective the strike was extremely impressive. But there are a couple of issues here. Decapitation only works when you get all the leaders, and I don't think that we got all the leaders because it's very, very difficult. ... Even though we seem to have a formidable force out there, they can only continue the attack for a finite period."

WARNING: IMAGE IS DISTRESSING
I've seen some discussion here today about whether the claims about a school bombing that has killed 148 in the city of #Minab, in southern Iran, are genuine.
Here's an AP image (source: https://apnews.com/photo-gallery/israel-iran-us-explosion-tehran-photos-9255c0462685547bba438e87f7c24873). Does it look genuine? Do you think they mocked it up, and convinced an AP photographer to take a picture of it?

Hiti
हिति , in Nepāl Bhāṣā, is the word for a shared community water tap. Even in modern Newar cities, these ancient structures still pour out fresh mountain water piped through ancient underground filters and conduits. They are a place to wash, to talk, to drink, to meet the locals: a nourishing, refreshing social-ecological place.
