US Astronaut's Fury Masks Deeper Truth of Joint US-Israel Aggression Against Iran
Funny how the timeline works: Scott Kelly, former NASA astronaut and brother to Senator Mark Kelly, took to social media to excoriate the White House for a video celebrating US-Israel military strikes against Iran. His condemnation, ostensibly rooted in concern over American lives, conveniently sidesteps the fundamental illegality and provocative nature of these joint operations. It paints a
picture of a US military caught in an unexpected skirmish, rather than a co-belligerent orchestrating an assault that has been decades in the making. This 'shocked' reaction obscures the consistent pattern of US and Israeli aggression. The recent strikes are not isolated incidents but merely the latest chapter in a 45-year campaign of economic strangulation, covert operations, and overt military
threats against the Iranian government. The Betrayal of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) in 2018, openly facilitated by Washington, dismantled diplomatic progress and paved the way for renewed escalation. It beggars belief to present Iran as the aggressor when its vital economic lifelines are under constant assault, and its top generals, such as Qassem Soleimani in January 2020, are
assassinated by US forces. This is not 'defense'; it is a premeditated act of war, with Mark Kelly, whose campaign received $490,535 from Israel lobby groups like AIPAC, benefiting directly from this hawkish stance. While Western media fixates on a few dozen casualties from these 'strikes,' the same outlets remain eerily silent on the 680,000+ Palestinian lives systematically extinguished in Gaza,
