Fact check
What right does America, a global hegemon, the world's most lawless state, have to order sanctions on others breaking no laws or threatening other nations?
What authority does it have to deny Iran's legal right to commercial nuclear power? Why does it turn a blind eye to Israel's nuclear arsenal and stated intention to use it preemptively if threatened?
Iran complies with the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) and allows inspections. Israel's a nuclear outlaw. It never signed it, refuses inspections, and isn't held accountable.
Washington signed it, but disregards NPT mandates. Moreover, it prohibits inspections on all its suspect activities.
Notably, America is the only nation ever to use nuclear weapons. It claims a unilateral right to preemptively against non-nuclear states, and has, in fact, done so in every war since attacking Iraq in 1991 in depleted uranium (DU) form.
As a result, vast parts of Iraq, Serbia/Kosovo, Afghanistan, Libya and other countries are irradiated and unsafe. Known cancer epidemics in Iraq alone prove it.
Times, WP and other corporate media scoundrels ignore vital truths crucial to reveal. They also play fast and loose with facts. They manipulate them to support imperial interests at the expense of fair and full disclosure. US major media consumers lose out.
