Analyses and video evidence emerged over the weekend showing that the air strike on the Shajareh Tayyebeh Girls’ Primary School on February 28—that killed over 160 girls aged 7 to 12—was carried out by the US military.

The girls’ school in Minab is in Iran’s southern Hormozgan province close to the Persian Gulf. The school was effectively pulverized by multiple blasts, and many of those killed were obliterated and could only be identified through DNA analysis. Footage showed bodies and body parts partially trapped under collapsed floors, alongside scattered schoolbags, notebooks and dust‑covered textbooks.

    Yes indeed -

    Axios: President Trump told in a phone interview Wednesday that the war with Iran will end “soon” because there is “practically nothing left” to target. “Little this and that. Any time I want it to end, it will end,” Trump said

    Although i doubt that all this totally up to him and more like trying to be the tough guy he always wants to be

      It’s totally up to him, notwithstanding what people he talks to and Fox News tell him what to think.
      He is surrounded by yes men who actually tried to dissuade him from attacking Iran, but still support his every demented decision.

        Nobody wants to do this. It’s only him. /s

        There is a thing called impeachment. Trump gave enough causes. It’s the majority of the US elite who wants this war or they would remove him.

        Unfortunately, it’s not entirely up to Trump. Iran isn’t going to back down just because Trump is all* “Oh, jk, lol!” *

        160 Iranian schoolgirls were killed by an American missile strike. Trump is still in denial. How do you suppose that sits with the Iranian people?
