Authorities say at least 22 people were killed and more than 120 wounded in clashes with police on Sunday after protesters tried to storm the U.S.

Violent clashes between protesters and security forces in Pakistan’s southern port city of Karachi and in the country’s north left at least 22 people dead and more than 120 others injured as demonstrators supportive of the Iranian government attempted to storm a U.S. Consulate on Sunday, authorities said.

In the north of the country, demonstrators attacked U.N. and government offices.

The violence came after the United States and Israel attacked Iran, killing its Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. Police and officials at a hospital in Karachi said that at least 50 people were also wounded in the clashes and some of them were in critical condition.

    None of those things has anything to do with this war, so stop the pathetic attempt at a straw man. She absolutely would have continued support for Israel, who are the reason this war started. It still would have happened under her, with the exception that unthinking pubes like yourself would have zero objection to it since it was the “moral” side saying the killing was necessary. And you’re right, she wouldn’t have done it without congressional approval. Both sides of the aisle would have lined up for the chance to kill Arabs on behalf of their employers in Israel.

    But the thing your atrophied blue MAGA brain will never be able to grasp, due to your rather limited American intellectual capacity and your belief in the exceptionalism of your nation, is that congressional approval doesn’t make something moral, or even the bare minimum of being within international law.

    If she was president, I would still think the world would be a better place if the US president was assassinated and their government toppled.

      Good for you! Enjoy your trump outcome then. Or do something about it other than venting to another internet nobody. Dumb american voters brought this on the world. They deserve every bit of ridicule they get.
