UN planning for a nuclear strike on Iran by US/Israel

[surfered]

Mahamad Safa, formerly the permanent representative to the United Nations for a major human rights organization, resigned from his diplomatic positions on Friday to leak a dramatic claim, along with a desperate plea to the United States and elsewhere.

His post on On X. I did not include the photo of Tehran he included in his post.

Mohamad Safa
@mhdksafa
I don't think people understand the gravity of the situation as the UN is preparing for possible nuclear weapon use in Iran.

This is a picture of Tehran. For you uneducated, untraveled, never-served, warhawks licking your chops at the thought of bombing it. It's not some low population desert. There are families, children, family pets. Regular working class people with dreams. You're sick to want war.

Tehran is a city of nearly 10,000,000 people. Imagine nuking Washington, Berlin, Paris, London, or beyond, bombed with nuclear weapons.

I gave up my diplomatic career to leak this information. I suspended my duties so as not to be part of or a witness to this crime against humanity, in an attempt to prevent a nuclear winter before it is too late.

Yesterday, nearly ten million people protested “No Kings” in the United States. The possibility of the use of nuclear weapons must be taken very seriously. It's dangerous. Act now. Spread this message worldwide. Take the streets. Protest for our humanity and future. Only the people can stop it. History will remember us.

1. Where is your information

coming from? Who wrote this? Serious charges without attrition?

[surfered]

2. I edited my post to include a link to Raw Story. In it is a link to his X post, which I copied to my post

I also edited to a link of corroboration from the UK Independent as to the WHO’s planning .

[Farmer-Rick]

49. Just look at the links

They have much more details.

[SCantiGOP]

54. Typical Raw Story nonsense

They are about as authentic as the National Enquirer.

[bucolic_frolic]

3. I don't doubt it.

I can feel it in my mood and my bones.

[Blue Full Moon]

9. Trump has said since his 1st administration

That he wanted to order a nuclear strike. The yes men morons he has installed will never tell him no. Every single nuclear site in this country is now under threat. If the demented fool does it there will be retaliation.

[ananda]

17. Mark Miller stopped him during his first term.

Who's going to stop him now?

[Igel]

18. No claim of attempted use.

Just a claim that Milley took steps to prevent it should Trump try.

[ananda]

33. It was going to be against China.

Milley had to call China and tell them
it was not going to happen.

[Blue Full Moon]

20. Exactly

[wnylib]

31. Greg Stillson in Stephen King's book, Dead Zone.

It was far-fetched fiction back then.

[Hudly]

58. The wolf is loose

[AloeVera]

4. To be clear, this is about emergency preparednesss in a worst-case scenario.

The WHO, part of the UN system, has started preparing for radiation-related risks.

But I understand where this man is coming from. If the threat has moved from the unthinkable to the possible, then, where the hell is the UN in denouncing this madness?? We know it's a toothless institution now but at least make an effort for Gawds's sake!!

[LearnedHand]

6. That's how I read it as well

The UN is preparing for the case in which TSF drops a nuke or three on Iran, not planning such an attack
BY the UN.

[AloeVera]

11. Yes. I mean it would be an alternate universe for the UN to start a nuclear war..

Clearly. Second, even if it wanted to drop nukes in a fit of psychosis or whatever, the UN has no nukes.

Or... does it?


In a bit of twisted thinking - maybe then it could actually fulfill it's mandate!

[rso]

5. Iran

Having served in the military as an officer and subsequently working with the military as a foreign service officer for 27 years, I am certain that our military chain of command would disobey a first-strike nuclear attack unless we were also being attacked with nuclear weapons.

[surfered]

7. I hope and pray you are right.

[leftstreet]

12. What about Israel?

[paleotn]

42. That's a problem.

I wonder if their command and control would say no as well. Surely cooler heads remain in Tel Aviv.

[haele]

43. I'm inclined to believe so, also.

My late FIL used to train Minuteman silo duty officers in the 1970's/1980's.
It was understood that policy on all sides was never to initiate first strike, that it would mean the end of whichever country did "shoot first".
I doubt even with the Focus on the Family takeover of the Air Force that the majority of the Military involved with nukes would be willing to be the one to start Armeggeddon. There are still protocols in place to keep a delusional paranoid or narcissist jackoff that goes through a mental breakdown to push the button.

That being said, Kegsbreath is a F'ing insane, deluded drunk (I doubt he's a dry drunk anymore) in a position of power way out of his mental or emotional capabilities.
I could only hope the cadre of uniformed yes-men and oafkeepers he's surrounded himself with have half a brain to go along with their political greed.

[Hudly]

50. As a Vet

I would like to believe the chain of command would work as planned. But if that were the case, wouldn’t there have been mass resignations/retirements by now over this illegal war with Iran? Their going along with the plan without dissent.

[usonian]

8. It's a lock.

Trump's a copy-cat.

He issued the order, explicitly or implicitly, for a double-tap school bombing on the order of the bombing of Dresden or the incendiary bombing of Japanese cardboard homes, without batting an eyelash, or perhaps, some glee.


Yes, MY LAI.

In his imitation of Democrats (or the reversal of their policies and actions) he is up against the Hiroshima and Nagasaki atomic bomb drops AND WON'T BE OUTDONE.

"Only the people can stop it."

One person can stop it. By doing the right thing.

There are families, children, family pets. Regular working class people with dreams.

Trump DESPISES such beings. He rapes them.

[calimary]

57. Shit - that mouth.

It always makes me think of a baby wanting a tit (or something) to suck.

[usonian]

59. I grab background images off the internet for memes, mashups and mods.

It ain't fun.

I avoid the mods that are against DU rules. hint, hint.

He reminds me of the joke about two terrorists.

One tells the other to go blow up a car.

The other returns with his lips all burned.

"I inflated it up but the exhaust pipe was terribly hot"

[H2O Man]

10. Recommended.

There have been a number of retired military/intelligence people on a variety of pod casts saying that there is a growing chance that Netanyahu may resort to this option. They are able to identify the three targets that Israel has had for "emergencies" involving Iran that have been in place for many years.

[spanone]

37. It would not surprise me if trmp joined Netanyahu.

He's that insane.

[H2O Man]

41. Agreed.

The felon has asked why have nukes if you never use them, and suggested them for hurrican control. He loves explosions. And at this point in time, Netanyahu has the lead in being this era's worst war criminal. The felon has a compulsive (and repulsive) need to be at least tied for first in everything.

[Boomerproud]

44. They need to be on more than podcasts.

If this is an emergency situation, and it certainly can turn into one, where is the urgency in the halls of power.

[H2O Man]

48. Most all of

them say they have been in contact with a number of former co-workers and members of Congress. Even the majority of maga in DC recognize this war is a terrible mistake, and that we are heading into a much worse situation. However, they do not dare publicly disagree with the felon-in-chief. The republicans aren't going to hold press conferences to address this honestly. And the corporate media is obeying the implied censorship from the administration, or the direct censorship in Israel. Hence, I think these pod casts, while clearly not the only thing being done, is an essential form of educating the public. I think that an increasing number of people recognize that pod casts frequently provide more accurate information than the regular media.

As a result, it is essential that we have accurate information when we contact our elected representatives. That is what we really need more of.

[bluestarone]

13. My thinking. this COULD happen by Israel, with TSF full support. (behind the scenes ofcourse)

TSF would say, "i had no idea" but we gotta finish this now that it started. I 100% think this will happen.

[H2O Man]

16. Interesting!

I am under the impression that the president isn't exactly "hands on" in determaning any strategy in the war. He reportedly favors watching video clips of bombs blowing things up. Netanyahu knows how to play him, and might let him know as it unfolds, but does not think there is any need to get his approval first. Thus, the president will tell what he believes to be lies, no matter what.

Perhaps the bombing of the Iranian gas field you reference is the perfect example for our consideration. It escalated the violence to a higher level, that poses much greater risks of leading to the use of nukes.

[flashman13]

14. If I had friends and/or family in Tel Aviv, I would tell them to get out - NOW!

[flashman13]

15. The same advice for Tehran as well.

It's unthinkable, but it might be best to take precautions before it's too late.

[enid602]

28. Shields

The Israeli Government is trying to keep Israelis from leaving. They’re needed as human shields.

[highplainsdem]

19. Horrifying possibility. But please change your thread title to make it clear this is a nuclear strike

by the US and/or Israel that the UN is worried about. The way your title is currently written suggests the UN might strike Iran with nuclear weapons.

If you could change that to

UN planning for a nuclear strike on Iran by US/Israel

it would make it clearer. Thanks!

[surfered]

23. So amended

[highplainsdem]

25. Thanks!

[Amaryllis]

24. Agree. Needs to be rewritten to be clear.

[Ponietz]

21. Improbable but possible with these Bozos

Tehran is desperately out of water. The entire city will likely need to be relocated soon.

[JohnnyRingo]

22. Thanx MAGAts!

If we live to see another election please put more thought into it.

If he launches a nuke the world at large will join forces and do something about it. Netenyahu won't because he knows Israel will cease to exist as a free state, but Diaper Donny thinks the world respects him. He doesn't care who dies.

[Iggo]

32. They knowingly voted for a guy who fucks children...

…and who they knew was only running for office to stay out of jail.

They knew it.

[johnnyfins]

35. I would also add that donny is chomping at the

Bit to light a nuke. Like a kid with a toy. What a dangerous situation.

[OC375]

26. War Pigs

[lapfog_1]

27. I rather imagine that the discussion

is about the use of a small tactical nuke on a certain mountain in Iran.

One that has tunnels 500 meters below the surface where, it is claimed, that Iran has stored 2/3rds of its remaining missiles and, possibly, some scuba tank sized containers of enriched uranium.

The idea is to create enough of a shock wave to kill any people inside, and create conditions at the surface to make it difficult to enter the mountain and retrieve the uranium or remaining ballistic missiles.

the bunker buster conventional weapons cannot reach the underground tunnels and rooms.

even if a nuke is used, the effectiveness is likely unknown.

But I'm sure Donny wants to try it... not to mention the psychopath Kegsbreath.

[Kid Berwyn]

29. Sounds serious.

[Iggo]

30. Because the President fucks children.

[Seinan Sensei]

53. If it's a choice between dropping a nuke vs releasing the Epstein files

Krasnov will drop a nuclear weapon in order to save his Pedofile ass

[yourout]

34. Dropping a nuke might be enough to get his ass impeached

Even some hardcore Republicans would have a hard time swallowing that.

[Dan]

36. It will not be enough

If said event happens by the US or Israel, there will be retaliation of something of equal damage. It will happen and all bets are off.

[PufPuf23]

45. If the USA or Israel nukes Iran, Pakistan will nuke Tel Aviv. nt

60. I fear you're right.

I hope that theory never has to be tested.

[B.See]

38. The fact that such a notion can't be

dismissed as the most absurd of fantasies, not only serves as PROOF of how far we've fallen as a nation, but confirmation of the sick minded depravity of those who'd even consider such an act.

Plenty of room in the history books for more genocides tho, I'd reckon.

[2na fisherman]

39. Nukes Not Needed To Create Nuclear Catastrophe

If the US strikes Iran's nuclear power facilities with conventional explosive munitions, the meltdowns of those facilities and the ensuing dispersal of radioactive dust will make huge areas of the country uninhabitable in addition to the mass casualties. The consequences of this will last for years. Millions of people will be displaced destabilizing the entire region with additional damage to global economies likened to a Great Depression. America will have become a pariah nation and tried before The Hague to make reparations and pay for crimes against humanity. I hope Trump (and Netanyahu) are stopped before it gets this bad. But a "worse case scenario" must now be planned for because something so "unthinkable" is well within their amoral minds if they become more like cornered rats with no other options than mass destruction.

[JoseBalow]

40. Oy

[BidenRocks]

46. Remember the ending of "Fail Safe"?

What pilot would do this?

[Haggard Celine]

47. If they drop a nuke,

it will be instant world war and that will stop a lot of the Epstein talk. Also, it might give them a pretext to cancel the elections. All of this will be too much for Trump to pass up.

[Roc2020]

51. Really? then what?

Russia N.Korea Pakistan China who all support Iran will just say..oh well. That's nuclear ww111. Trump may be suicidal, not sure about the US generals.

[calimary]

61. It's certainly a novel way to try to beat the rap.

If the rest of us are too busy hiding & digging in against being nuked and trying to figure out get-arounds to help cope with the ramifications of DJT, then how will the resistance be sustained?

I think we should ALL be thinking of THAT miserable scenario and what to do/how to cope/how to survive and defy it.

55. Not a good move.

[Martin68]

56. Is there credible intelligence that either country is planning to use a nuclear weapon in Iran? That's news to me.
