A spokesperson of the U.S. government says the Biden administration doesn’t think it is “appropriate” for there to be an international investigation into the destruction of the hospital in Gaza. Why would the U.S. oppose such an investigation if it believes Israel didn’t do it?

Tonight, after spending 11 days in Iran, I returned to Beirut, Lebanon for the fifth time since Israel's genocide in Palestine began. The mood of the passengers on my flight from Cyprus to Beirut was relaxed, but when I got into a taxi at the Beirut airport terminal, the driver told me that the Israeli military had issued an evacuation notice for an area that is adjacent to the airport. As he drove us through that area, the taxi driver made humorous remarks about Lebanon. Upon my arrival at my hotel, staff at the reception desk asked me a series of unusual, security-related questions. They said that those questions were necessary because Israel had conducted precision strikes on several Beirut hotels in recent days. In the days ahead, Reason2Resist will be on the ground in Lebanon, reporting on Israel's latest violations of the ceasefire. #Lebanon #Iran

This is France’s only nuclear-powered aircraft carrier, the Charles de Gaulle. It’s now docked at the Souda Bay naval base on the Greek island of Crete, where I’m currently located. The Charles de Gaulle is scheduled to depart on April 7 for the eastern Mediterranean, to conduct unspecified operations. On April 2, French President Emmanuel Macron stated publicly that it would be unrealistic to launch a military operation to force open the Strait of Hormuz, and that the only way to reopen the Strait was to engage in dialogue and cooperation with Iran. Macron is of course correct, but that begs the question: why has he sent this aircraft carrier into the eastern Mediterranean? Given their history of treachery and double-dealing, Western leaders have no credibility when they claim to be seeking peace with an official enemy of Washington. Like the genocide in Gaza, the war of aggression on Iran is a de facto NATO operation. #Iran #IranWar

As much as I enjoy the World Cup, I’ll be boycotting the World Cup this year. FIFA has disgraced itself by worshipping Donald Trump and refusing to expel Israel. Please join me in this boycott. #NoUSHosts #NotTheirCup #SaveFootball #SaveWorldCup #DisqualifyUSA #GoalsNotGuns

Moments ago, while strolling across the magical Imam Square in Isfahan, Iran, we heard several explosions in the distance (one of which is audible just after the 1-minute mark of this video). Yet no one flinched. No one screamed. No one ran for cover. Compare the calm response of Isfahan’s residents to the frenzied fear of Israeli colonists when missile sirens ring in their cities - and bear in mind that Israelis claim to have missile defence systems that are vastly superior to those of Iran. Finally, note how many adult women are walking in public in Imam Square with no head covering. They’re telling you a pack of lies about Iran. #IranWar #Iran

While in Iran, we spoke with the mayor of Shiraz, Mohammad Hassan Asadi, about the US-Israeli war of aggression. Shiraz's is Iran's 5th largest city. Like all political figures we met with in Iran, the Mayor spoke to us in a public place and was not accompanied by bodyguards.

Today, I gained access to a private conference held in Athens, Greece to promote deeper ties between Israel, Greece and Cyprus. The speakers included Israel's Deputy Foreign Minister, Israel's Ambassador to Greece, Greece's Minister of Tourism and Greece's Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs. This week, Reason2Resist will publish excerpts from their speeches. The excerpts reveal how Israel, Greece and Cyprus seek to profit from the criminal war of aggression on Iran. One of the speakers at the conference was Averof Neofytou, a Cypriot MP who was formerly the President of the Democratic Rally of Cyprus. In this clip, Neofytou tells Israel's ambassador to Greece (seated second from the left) that, having started the war on Iran, Israel must now "finish the job" and that "we must suffer" the consequences.

Today, in Imam Square in Esfahan, we had a cup of tea with two vendors of Persian rugs. We asked them for their views about the U.S.-Israel war to ‘liberate’ them. We also asked them about diaspora Iranians who support Trump, Netanyahu and the Shah’s son. Have a listen.

A prominent journalist who works for German state broadcaster ARD is reporting on the Iran war from Istanbul. She won’t come to Iran because, she says, the censorship is too extreme. Having spent one week in Iran during the war, I decided to respond to her concern.

Today in Ottawa, we announced the filing of a lawsuit against the government of Canada for violating its duty to prevent genocide. Our clients, two Palestinian Canadians whose families in Gaza have been devastated by Israel's genocidal rampage, allege that Canada has violated their constitutional rights. It is time for Justin Trudeau and Mélanie Joly to answer for their support for Israel's genocidal regime. #Gaza #genocide #cdnpoli #Palestine

Today in Tabriz, Iran, we visited the ruins of a residential building destroyed by a U.S.-Israeli airstrike. The bombing killed a father and two sons, aged 3 and 13. The father was the local barber. The mother was injured but survived. Her name is Solmaz. Other residents of the building were also injured. Solmaz and a local rescue worker who tried to save the father and sons came to the site of the atrocity to speak with us. Solmaz had a message for Reza Pahlavi and the Trump and Netanyahu regimes. This is what she said. #Iran #iranwar tim anderson Propaganda & co

Upon arriving today in the Iranian port city of Bushehr, we learned that, for some absurd reason, the Epstein Regime had destroyed the city's main meteorological station. Fortunately, we found a weather man to update the locals on the weather that lies ahead. Propaganda & co #Iran
