Tony Blair is a war criminal and a soul-less ghoul who cares not one bit about democracy or even, I suspect, the well-being of the UK. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...
Screenshot from The Guardian reading, “The prime minister [Keir Starker] was also criticised, in comments first reported by the Mail on Sunday, by his predecessor Blair – who told a private Jewish News event on Friday that Starmer “should have backed America from the very beginning” and let the Trump administration use British airbases.

Blair, a member of the executive board of Trump’s “board of peace” – viewed as the US president’s alternative to the United Nations – said: “If they are your ally and they are an indispensable cornerstone for your security … you had better show up when they want you to.”

The problem with the discourse on antisemitism is that “hasbara culture has warped” or understanding of what it is. A recent tweet from David Frum illustrates it perfectly.
Screenshot from an article at Mondoweiss. It reads: “This is how hasbara culture has benighted Jewish political culture. It has created a world in which AIPAC and “the Jews” are interchangeable, in which any real reckoning with Gaza is framed as blood libel, and in which the line between a J Street Democrat and an actual antisemite is almost impossible to draw.”

U.S. President Benjamin Netanyahu is making sure his underlings are not going rogue.
Screenshot from Al Jazeera's live blog of the war on Iran. It reads:

Netanyahu asked White House about suspected US–Iran secret talks: Report

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu asked the White House for clarification earlier this week after learning officials in the Trump administration might have been communicating with Iran.

According to a report by US news outlet Axios, citing two unnamed sources familiar with the issue, Israeli intelligence obtained information suggesting there may have been contacts between the Trump administration and Iranian officials to discuss a possible ceasefire.

Axios reported that Netanyahu called White House officials on Monday to ask whether such talks or exchanges of messages had taken place.

One source told the outlet the White House responded by telling Netanyahu that the Trump administration was not speaking to Iranian officials “behind his back”.
