L'Iran a accéléré son rythme de production d'uranium enrichi à 60%, selon l'AIEA
L'Iran a accéléré le rythme de production de ses réserves d'uranium enrichi à 60%, alors que le seuil nécessaire pour fabriquer une arme nucléaire est de 90%, selon un rapport confidentiel de l'Agence internationale de l'énergie atomique (AIEA) consulté par l'AFP mercredi 4 septembre. Mais cette information date d'avant « la guerre de 12 jours » déclenchée par une attaque d'Israël contre l'Iran.

America has tons of fancy academics and pundits explaining the complexities of US foreign policy to us. But in all seriousness, 90% of it is about a fear that some brown people are being disobedient out there on the hazy horizon, and this makes our tummy hurt.

When I was Labour leader, the Chilcot report condemned the party for its disastrous war in Iraq. We need a similar inquiry now, says MP Jeremy Corbyn

Etonnant silence en France sur la brutale rupture du cessez-le-feu à Gaza par l’armée israélienne, avec l’assentiment des Etats-Unis. Il est la traduction la plus spectaculaire du relativisme trumpien qui se généralise. Devenons-nous insensibles aux massacres ?

En France, tous les responsables devraient s’insurger contre les atteintes au droit international dont est notamment responsable Benyamin Nétanyahou. Ils sont comme tétanisés à l’idée d’être mis dans le même sac que LFI et ses dérapages.
