Iran has cut off direct communications with the US as women and children formed human shields around energy sites after Donald Trump warned that a 'whole civilization will die tonight.'

Negotiations are continuing through mediators but the severed contact has complicated efforts to meet Trump's 8pm ET deadline, the Wall Street Journal reported.

An official said that Iran intended to convey a message of defiance and disapproval by severing communications.

Iranian state TV is now broadcasting images of civilians protesting at bridges and power plants, in a direct taunt after Trump threatened to strike infrastructure. Video showed women and children waving flags as chanting blared on a loudspeaker.

Trump said on Truth Social: 'A whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again. I don't want that to happen, but it probably will.'

He threatened Monday to target Iran's infrastructure, despite warnings that striking civilian energy and water supplies would constitute a war crime as it is a clear breach of the Geneva Convention.

......... Footage shows RAF Fairford in the United Kingdom with a Boeing B-52 Stratofortress among US military aircraft operating from the base as tensions rise over Iran. The images capture increased activity at RAF Fairford and RAF Lakenheath, with US forces moving aircraft in preparation for potential escalation in the Middle East. Reports say the movements come as diplomatic warnings intensify, with fears the situation could broaden into a wider regional conflict.         ........

American B-52 bombers have just been spotted taking off from a military base in the UK.
If headed to Iran, given around 6 hours remaining in the flight, they’d be within striking distance around 8pm ET tonight.

So what's he going to do tonight, Proud Gay?

Sit up, posting muscle memes?

Bobby posted all the good ones back in 2017.

A whole civilisation? Jews, Shiites, Sunnis?

Sure, why not? It's just a bit of harmless genocide, Lee.

When they are all races it isn't genocide.

In the present Convention, genocide means any of the following acts committed with intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnical, racial or religious group, as such:

Not in my book.

I condemn all genocide.

It's a pity you can't.

If we are talking about " racking up numbers of civilian deaths "  donny is way behind the bushes, Obama, Nixon, Regan,  jfk, probably behind bill, Hilary Demolished civilian Libya and it has never recovered, Obama gave weapons to Saudi and let the Saudis  use the satellites to kill over 2 million Yemeni.

Donny is possibly the least genocidal pres in history 

..they are targeted as 'a civilization'.

You invent people's words then argue against yourself.

The genocide by Iran is irrelevant to your idea.

civilisation: 'A complex society with social hierarchies, urban settlements, and high cultural/technological development.'

It's a pity you can't condemn mass murder.

You miss every point, heh.

You brought up the 3 religions. The verb genocide is used for both single and plural nouns. Genocide of a civilisation, of a nation, of 3 religions.

And so which ones are genocide and which ones collateral damage? In war there is always collateral damage.

If anyone dies of thirst from bombing Iran's water desalination plants, or any hospital patients die from bombing Iran's power plants, or anybody dies of hunger from bombing the power and water plants that fuel the irrigation of Iran's crops, that's just a bit of collateral damage.

So still an IF.

Our assumption is you're okay with US presidents threatening collateral genocide.

Big Donger wrote on Apr 10^th, 2026 at 9:05pm:



your assumptions are incorrect - as usual.

That's the rest of it. Perhaps you can point to where I said or intimated different? 

So you are such an idiot that you think Trump can kill everyone in Iran?
