Freedom from life ๐Ÿ˜ก

I agree that expelling Hungary would be desirable, however I doubt that EU states would allow that, they donโ€™t want to set a precedent.

The best outcome would be Orban ejected from power, but I think that he will refuse to go.

There are also Fico and Babis to contend with. โ˜น๏ธ

The EU is there to protect and support members.

Hungary is a member state, Ukraine isnโ€™t.

Exactly, there is no moral justification for standing aside.

Less nobly, even grubbily you might sayโ€ฆ

(Without getting involved in the war) Protecting civilian life in neighbouring states may reduce a shortage of resources that would cause suffering around the world.

I understand. Iran is intentionally targeting civilians in an attempt to achieve its aims. That doesnโ€™t surprise me.

War crimes are war crimes. Nobody should feel ashamed for trying to protect civilians from war crimes. (And for anyone in doubt, no amount of whataboutry can overcome that truth).

It would to the civilians being bombed simply for the misfortune of living near Iran.

(I wouldnโ€™t be surprised Iran doesnโ€™t also start terrorist attacks on civilians further afield)

What exactly is โ€œ2.5 times lessโ€, 40% maybe?

We should help defend our allies who are victims of a war that they are not participating in.

Hot off the pressโ€ฆ

Trump says he likes the idea of an โ€œinternalโ€ candidate taking over the regime in Iran but doesnโ€™t like Mojtaba Khamenei.

Trump added: โ€œIโ€™d like to see people that are inside...we have a formula thatโ€™s been very good [in Venezuela] so far.โ€

There is that.

Let me rephrase what I wrote โ€ฆ

I wouldnโ€™t trust Trump to ASSIST in replacing a light bulb.

Time will tell.

Personally Iโ€™d love for the Islamic Republic to be replaced, but I wouldnโ€™t trust Trump to replace a light bulb.

What has changed is the move from US hegemony within a liberal world order to an illiberal multipolar world.

They work primarily for themselves, Putin has no problem throwing Iran under a bus, especially if it strengthens his hand in Europe.

Maduro isnโ€™t a huge loss, Putin can live with it.

Attack the IRGC? Trump has handed Putin and Xi a giftโ€ฆ
1) Diverted and depleted what could have been PURL armaments.
2) Boosted Russian oil profits.
3) Destroyed the liberal rules based order.

Pray tell, why do you think Trump has been on the phone to Putin?

Did we ever have any clear and consistent strategic goals.

I see no mention of restricting nuclear capability, so I guess a nuclear Iran is now acceptable ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ

It looks as if in a matter of hours you will be proved right.

He has been on the Phone to Putin. At best he is foolishly seeking advice, at worst treacherously seeking instructions.

You did, but that suggests that they started in a bad place and havenโ€™t improved, I get the impression that they didnโ€™t start too badly and have actually got worse.

The UK? Going backwards.

Canโ€™t defend their own airbase in Cypress and need to rely on Europe.

Holocaust Denial as an Anti-Zionist and Anti-Imperialist Tool for the European Far Left Iranian state promotion of Holocaust denial is an example of anti-Semitism being used to generate anti-Zionism, the reverse of the normal dynamic. It has given a boost to Holocaust-denial activities w...

Insane you say.

I did some Googling, you were correct to use the word insane.

The far left go through contortions to make a narrative that Jews were co-conspirators with Hitler.

(And, topically, the new popularity of holocaust denial on the left is related to Iran)

Russian media report that Israeli aviation carried out a strike on a Russian cultural center in Lebanon. The building has been destroyed.

Very interesting.

It would be also be interesting to compare this with the left, I get the impression that the greatest holocaust denial is amongst Tankies.

(Mein Fuhrer, your biggest supporters are the communists)

Ayatollah Khamenei's son owns ยฃ50m London flats overlooking Israeli embassy Luxury Kensington apartments linked to Mojtaba Khamenei spark security fears as experts warn the properties could be used as a potential surveillance platform

Iran's new Ayatollah, Mojtaba Khamenei, owns a property empire in London. If Keir Starmer is unwilling to help topple the Iranian dictatorship by military means, perhaps he could demonstrate his commitment by sanctioning and confiscating all assets of the Islamist terrorist in Kensington?

โ€œdowngrading capabilitiesโ€ is what I mean by โ€œcutting the grassโ€.

I have little faith in the Trump gang, but hope that state institutions can keep the cart out of the ditch.

It is true that Bluesky suffers from bot like behaviour from โ€œuseful idiotโ€ accounts, but a number of professional experts remain unconvinced by this SMO.

โ€œelements of unpredictability and uncertaintyโ€ is an understatement, this might turn out to just โ€œcutting the grassโ€.

I recall that the US were also worried about Ukraine going too far. Perhaps they shouldnโ€™t have started this war of choice?

Is the US also going to tell Ukraine to back off Russian oil?

Of course flying carpets exist silly. Havenโ€™t you heard of carpet bombing? ๐Ÿ™„

Mind you, the scale in this video is all wrong, the F35 would have to be the size of a very small car, you are correct to call AI.

Interesting.

But presumably, with the straight of Hormuz closed, many of the downsides (and upsides) of depriving the IRI of Kharg island no longer apply.
