Heavy explosions lit up the skies over Ahvaz on Friday as American bombers pounded Iranian cities for the 13th consecutive night, but as the US resumes its bombing campaign over Iranian skies, the real detonation may be happening inside the Pentagon’s war rooms.

The Anti-Slavery Advocates of Disunion
Contrary to the popular assumption that centralized political power was necessary to destroy slavery, federal power spent much of its history protecting and enforcing the institution.
