JUST IN: 🇨🇭🇺🇸 Switzerland says it rejected two US requests to use its airspace for operations against Iran.

He's not wrong. Time for a rethink. There can still be an alliance but without the US.

Trump urges UK and others to send ships to help secure Strait of Hormuz after Iranian attacks - live updates Meanwhile, Israel says Iran has launched a sixth wave of strikes on Saturday and in Kuwait, an air base has been hit by two drones.

I thought the manbaby had already claimed victory. Why the need for support? If he wants "allies" to send ships why not ask Russia?

Unusual to see a politician with a spine.

Not even the Nazis expressly announced they were committing war crimes. Indeed, at Nuremberg war crimes were denied.

But here, openly, the US Secretary for Defense is explicitly admitting to committing war crimes.

I'm not privy to the intricacies of American politics. But from a European perspective, why it's not possible to stop this madman is beyond me.

I like style, personality and sometimes a bit of quirkiness. Sausages casing is just absurd.

It was indeed fascinating. Everyone (in Sweden) knows about Raoul Wallenber. but I've never heard of Gösta Engzell before. He clearly kept a low profile.

I've just watched a Swedish film "The Swedish Connection" on Netflix. It's based on a true story about an unsung hero during WWII, Gösta Engzell at the Swedish Foreign Ministry. Social resistance is often talked about, he used bureaucratic resistance to save thousands of jews across Europe.

"War is peace" etc etc..

Trump lies as he breathes to the American people. Why shouldn't he, so far it has worked out well for him. But now he's using the same tactics on the international stage. Not so sure it will work this time.

🚨 Switzerland just declared US-Israeli attacks on Iran a violation of international law.
Switzerland.

The country that hasn’t taken a side in a conflict since 1815.

An elementary school bombed. A boys’ school. Freshwater desalination plants. Oil refineries blanketed in acid rain.

Up until recently, I was blissfully unaware of Lindsey Graham. Not anymore, unfortunately. He pops up on my feed every now and then, too often for my liking. I swear he came in his pants when he in lyrical terms described the almighty American force descending on the world.

Of course they would. Sovereignty is sacred to them. What better way to prove it than bending the knee to the US.

Fragile egos and desires to prove your manhood are again shaping history.

Will they continue celebrating when the penny finally drops? Trump and Netanyahu don't give a shit about delivering democracy or dignity to the Iranian people.

Who on God's green earth can back Trump? The man is clearly insane convinced he's the emperor of the world.

Hiya Callum. I love my country but I'm not blind too it's flaws. I don't galavant around the world telling everyone it's the best country in the world, that would be silly.

Europeans know all too well about crusades and religious wars. It would seem a certain part of American society are blissfully ignorant.

WTAF!?

Touché

So far, Trump has accused China, Venezuela, and now Iran of interfering with the 2020 election. Next, he will blame Greenland, giving him an excuse to attack yet another country. President of Peace my arse.

I'm a non British citizen living in UK. This might come as a shock to him, but I've never been allowed to vote in the GE.

"Sila mygg och svälja kameler" springs to mind.

“We cannot say that the United States’ actions are against international law, but we condemn Iran’s retaliatory actions as against international law,” is neither a coherent nor a compelling position.

Starmer's ability to find the exact sweetspot which pisses off everyone is extraordinary. He's a savant.

Trump made his choice a long time ago.
