Khanna: Trump is threatening war crimes. You cannot strike electricity plants and civilian targets. We don't do that. We are supposed to follow international law. That's the type of things that Putin does. That's the war crimes that Netanyahu committed. And we need to be loud and clear that Donald Trump should not be threatening war crimes on behalf of the American people.

Omid Memarian, Iranian political analyst: "What they are doing to Iran now is what they did in Gaza — on a far, far larger scale." The war has shifted from military targets to civilizational destruction. This is no longer about the Islamic Republic or regime change. It is the destruction of Iran as a nation, as a people, as a civilization that has existed for thousands of years. Under international law, striking civilian infrastructure is a war crime.
