No War with Iran by Dr. Jill Stein

What happened:

On April 1st, Israel launched an unprovoked airstrike against an Iranian consulate in Syria. It was nothing less than a criminal act of war that killed 16 people, including multiple senior IRGC commanders.

Two weeks later, Iran launched a major attack against Israel as a direct response to the assault on their consulate. Iran’s operation constituted a major show of force, but did not result in any deaths and only one significant injury caused by debris.

Following that barrage, Iran’s envoy to the UN issued a statement citing their right to legitimate defense under Article 51, and stating they consider the matter “concluded” unless Israel continues their aggression.

In the span of a few hours we went from what appeared to be the certainty of a widespread, regional war drawing in U.S. and European powers – to a clear statement of intent to de-escalate.

Instead, Israel has chosen continued aggression and escalation, launching another strike on Iranian sovereign soil last night.

The U.S. and U.K. just imposed new sanctions against Iran, rejecting Iran’s effort to de-escalate.

Biden refused to condemn Israel’s attack on the consulate that started this conflict. He refuses to stop pumping billions in arms to Israel to continue their war crimes.

Before the first missiles were launched from Iran, Biden promised "ironclad” support for Israel no matter what – an insanely reckless move that threatens to plunge us into World War III.

Biden has abandoned his responsibility as our Commander in Chief, effectively ceding authority to Netanyahu to make unilateral decisions with huge U.S. foreign policy implications.

Warmongers like Biden are too dangerous to remain in power. WE DO NOT CONSENT to war with Iran.

Ours is the only anti-war, anti-genocide, pro-worker and climate action campaign on track to be on the ballot all across the country. It’s time to abandon Biden and vote for PEACE.
