Netanyahu has spent the better part of two decades trying to strong arm the United States into an unprovoked war against Iran and finally found a president stupid enough to do it for him. Unbelievable.

In my current work, I point to the invasion of Iraq 2003 as a moment where the public's trust in the foundational ideals of democracy, verification, deliberation, and accountability were systematically betrayed, destroying their trust in democratic systems.
Its nice the kids get to experience their own 2003 style build-up to an unjust war like we did.

The Marleen is not a security threat. Israel is the threat.
Israel has declared the Madleen (With Greta Thunberg on) a security threat, it is jamming their electronic systems and circling them with combat drones.

If it blows them up Israel will surely declare it an 'accident' but it will be their most blatant War Crime yet.

Every time the Brexit mess makes headlines it is so clear how - unlikely though it might seem - the pro Brexit whiners always sound like ageing Marxists with their “Brexit (Communism) would have been brilliant if only it had been done right.” It’s really quite sad.

This is one of the best articles I’ve read in a long time. Exquisitely written, funny, depressing, wildly evocative.
This is my love letter to an America I can no longer visit, an elegy in the form on an essay. So glad the @guardian published it. www.theguardian.com/us-news/ng-i...
The America I loved is gone
It was a nation of dreams, built for the screen. Then it shattered

God has put David Lynch in charge of Australian news.
SORRY. Sorry.
Have we seen this *incredible* news video coming out of Queensland? Wait for the witness/witnesses statement

A lot of people are asking why a Trump administration would want to create this chaos. I wrote this in the Guardian almost 12 years ago! We are not just talking about currency exchange here ofc, but for all hedging it holds true: There is less profit in stability, than in chaos. We must grasp this.

Canadian PM Justin Trudeau:

"Today, the United States launched a trade war against Canada - their closest partner and ally, their closest friend. At the same time, they're talking about working positively with Russia, appeasing Vladimir Putin - a lying murderous dictator. Make that makes sense."

I’m not a violent person, but I would happily smack the eyeliner off this chinless nazi’s face.
"Some random country that hasn't fought a war in 40 years..."

Over 500 dead British and French personnel (more than 1,000 total European fatalities) and c10,000 injured in Afghanistan 2001-2021. The only time Article 5 has been invoked.

As if I wasn’t obvious already, we now need to treat American as a hostile country.

I have written a detailed account of Trump's relationship with Russia.

"a reasonable analytical conclusion [is] that Trump has a political debt to the Russians which could prove problematic for him if fully ventilated"

Trump is a Russian agent of influence.

It's been obvious since January 6 that he was an enemy of the USA, the UK & the whole of the free world. Everybody still in his camp understands this as completely as everybody against it. They just prioritise personal interest over the national & international. And they know it. They all know it.

Time to wake up and smell the coffee. The US is currently and adversarial nation - at best, and certainly an enemy to democracy.

Trump cannot be given a state visit to the UK. It should never have been offered. The invitation must now be withdrawn. You might as well hand it to Putin.

From Starmer’s POV that couldn’t have gone any better.
