Nuclear attack on Iran? UN diplomat resigns to leak plan (m.economictimes.com)

A high-ranking allied diplomat at the United Nations has suspended all official duties after alleging that the international organization is currently preparing for a scenario involving the active use of nuclear weapons against Iran. Mohamad Safa, who has served as the Permanent Representative of the Patriotic Vision Organization (PVA) to the UN for nearly twelve years, issued a public resignation notice on X, claiming he could no longer remain a "witness to this crime against humanity."

Reading this, in the context of Albanese finally coming out and being more forthright about the US' intentions than he's been so far, I find alarming.

Suddenly makes me wonder if the Australian Government has been alerted to a specific risk identified with the US' intentions.

The prime minister has said he wants a clear outline from the US as to what it wants to achieve in Iran. 7:30 - ABC

Edit: Would they consider nuking Kharg island? Considering POTUS saying "he wants Iran's oil?"

For shits sakes, a thousand conspiracy theories, like the links I'm drawing, could be built around this idiocy to numb the poiniency of the risk.
