The Trump administration is a fascist

Iran Theater- A number of world-renowned artists reacted to the illegal action by Donald Trump that violated international law and led to the testimony of Qasem Soleimani.

“High Fidelity” actor John Cusack, 53, tweeted about Trump’s action, which he called “full fascist 101 mode.

Cusack has fielded his share of detractors for his political opinions over the years as a blogger for The Huffington Post during the Bush administration, which he called “depressing, corrupt, unlawful, and tragically absurd.” He also criticized the Obama administration’s drone policy.

 

Cusack continued tweeting into Friday, writing that America should “remove this regime from power.”

 

“This is where the fascism ends -- in blood,” he continued. “Remove this criminal syndicate masquerading as a gov(ernment).”

 

Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has vowed “harsh retaliation” after Trump’s airstrike.

 

More airstrikes in Iraq were reported early Saturday, with one official declaring at least five members of a Iran-backed militia dead. The second attack came almost exactly 24 hours after Soleimani’s killing.

Dear #Iran, The USA has disrespected your country, your flag, your people. 52% of us humbly apologize. We want peace with your nation. We are being held hostage by a terrorist regime. We do not know how to escape. Please do not kill us. #Soleimani pic.twitter.com/YE54CqGCdr

Of course #Soleimani was an evil evil man who did evil evil things. But that at this moment is not the fucking point. The United States is morally corrupt and acts illegally. It is only logical to appeal to Iran’s pride by apologizing. I’m taking one for the team. #TeamStayAlive

Outspoken Hollywood actors John Cusack (seen in a 2015 file photo) and Rose McGowan (seen in a 2018 file photo) tweeted their scorn for U.S. President Donald Trump’s airstrike in Iran, garnering a mix of backlash and support Friday.

“Targeting cultural sites is a WAR CRIME and makes you no better than the terror you claim to be fighting,” Morgan J. Freeman wrote in a tweet in reaction to Donald Trump’s Saturday tweets in which the US president threatened to target 52 Iranian cultural sites in case Iran carried out its promised revenge over the US assassination of Lt. Gen. Qasem Soleimani.

“Donald Trump is a TERRORIST Donald Trump is a CHILD ABUSER Donald Trump is a RACIST Donald Trump is a SCAM ARTIST Donald Trump is a SEXIST Donald Trump is a COWARD Donald Trump is a LIAR Donald Trump is a CROOK Donald Trump is a CRIMINAL Donald Trump is NOT MY PRESIDENT,” Freeman wrote in another tweet.

“The *imminent threat* was to Trump’s presidency. So he started a war,” the American film director added.

Freeman referred to US Senator Elizabeth Warren as his “kinda president”, who reacted to Trump’s threats by taking to Twitter, saying “You are threatening to commit war crimes. We are not at war with Iran. The American people do not want a war with Iran. This is a democracy. You do not get to start a war with Iran, and your threats put our troops and diplomats at greater risk. Stop.”
