The ZioNazi mafia controlled US government has started bombing Venezuela unprovoked in an attempt to steal their oil and resources. These are crimes against humanity.
It feels like they have tried to do an inverse of the 1920s/30s. This time around start with the Business Plot and provoke a World War, instead of Great Depression and New Deal. It won't work as nobody is going to be willing to fight in their crooked war.
Everything that is happening today is very similar to 1920s/30s and 1850s/60s.

In the late 1990s Tony Blair’s MoD went to the trouble of dispatching the SAS to Bosnia to capture suspected war criminals.
They were accused of lesser abuses than Benjamin Netanyahu and Yoav Gallant. With them, the MoD has continued military cooperation.

Typical FTSE 100 CEO collects average UK wage in TWO days. CEO collects 141 times average employee's earnings. Some collect 1,110 times more.
No link between CEO pay and performance - look at water, energy, banking, gambling sectors?
Govts preach pay restraint to workers. No curbs on exec pay.

The bosses paid the average UK salary in just TWO days
The growing pay gap between what chief executives and their employees earn will reignite the debate around 'fat cat' pay as shareholder revolts against boardroom excess surge.

Spot on 👏 thankyou @premnsikka.bsky.social let's get Thames back into public ownership or more 💩🤢💰💰 for us poor customers!
Thames Water is a test for the British economy.
It profits by ripping off customers.
Pays dividends, doesn't invest.
Since March TW borrowed £1.47bn.
Paid £900m in fees/interest for the emergency financing.
Can't address crisis without public ownership.

It is a particularly British paradox that one of the country’s biggest companies can both generate hundreds of millions in profit and be at imminent risk of bankruptcy. This is the story of Thames Wat...

When will Wes realise that keeping private finance and it's profit imperative out of our NHS will help provide decent wages and resources and keep our doctors in OUR 💙NHS💙
Overseas-trained doctors leaving the UK in record numbers.
Direct result of racism and insecurity unleashed by major political parties.
Not enough home trained doctors. Takes years and high debt to become a doctor.
A healthcare crisis in the making.
