[AMV] VS #1222 MAKE IRAN GREAT AGAIN!

Justice Sotomayor, on the import of what the Supreme Court did today:

"The [Trump administration] thus openly flouted two court orders. ... [E]ach time this Court rewards noncompliance with discretionary relief, it further erodes respect for the courts and for the rule of law."

Justice Sotomayor ends her dissent by saying the Supreme Court has permitted "thousands [to] suffer violence in farflung locales," an action which "rewards lawlessness" by the Trump administration.

She says the Court has undermined the basic concept of Due Process under the law.

The outlines of a plan to suspend Iran’s cooperation with the International Atomic Energy Agency, the U.N.’s nuclear watchdog, have been approved by the national security committee of Iran’s Parliament, state media said on Monday, citing the committee spokesman. The I.A.E.A. declared earlier this month that Iran was not complying with its nuclear nonproliferation obligations. Its chief, Rafael Grossi, urged a return to negotiations during an emergency meeting on Monday, saying that Iran needed to declare any transfer of nuclear materials out of safeguarded facilities and that a cessation of hostilities was required for Iran to let I.A.E.A. teams assess the sites bombed by the United States.

In a legally mandated memo sent to Congress on Monday, President Trump said he had authorized strikes on three of Iran’s most important nuclear sites last week “to advance vital United States national interests, and in collective self-defense of our ally, Israel, by eliminating Iran’s nuclear program.”

The strikes were carried out without congressional authorization and with little consultation with leaders on Capitol Hill, which angered many Democrats and some Republicans who believe Congress should play a more significant role in determining when American troops wade into war.

The memo asserted that the strikes were carried out under the authority granted to the president to uphold his responsibility to “to protect United States citizens both at home and abroad as well as in furtherance of United States national security and foreign policy interests.”

Iran’s foreign minister, Abbas Araghchi, seemed to suggest in a post on social media that the cease-fire announced by President Trump, but not confirmed by Israel or Iran, had gone into effect. “The military operations of our powerful Armed Forces to punish Israel for its aggression continued until the very last minute, at 4am,” he said in a post on social media that came shortly after he posted that there was no agreement but said that Iran would not continue to respond to Israeli attacks if Israel halted its strikes as of 4 a.m. in Tehran.

Iran's state television is announcing a cease-fire between Iran and Israel. The cease-fire was "imposed on the enemy" because of Iran's successful missile retaliation attacks, the anchor says.

Despite expectations of an early morning cease-fire, the Israeli military just said further missiles had been launched from Iran at Israeli territory.

Iranian and Israeli media says ceasefire has begun, but confusion swirls over precise details
From CNN's Jerome Taylor and Irene Nasser

Iranian and Israeli media channels are reporting that the ceasefire between their two nations has begun. But confusion still swirls over the ceasefire’ precise details and timing.

In his initial announcement, US President Donald Trump said a ceasefire would begin around six hours from his first social media message announcing the breakthrough, which placed the timing close to 12a eastern time.

Shortly after 12a eastern time, Israeli and Iranian media began running headlines saying the ceasefire had begun.

Iran’s Press TV, which is run by Iran’s state-run television operation, said: “Ceasefire begins following four waves of Iranian attacks on Israeli-occupied territories”.

The semi-official Tasnim news agency reported one line on its Telegram channel saying a ceasefire had entered its “enforcement stage”.

Israeli news outlets Channel 12 and Ynet also ran headlines saying the ceasefire had come into effect.

Iran’s state media earlier on Tuesday declared a ceasefire had been “imposed on the enemy” but did not give a precise time.

Israel’s government has yet to make any official comment.
