The ICJ says Israel is an apartheid state. An independent commission of inquiry of the UN says its committing genocide. @sdoughtymp.bsky.social : "We have a strong & ongoing relationship with Israel" Yes, you're siding us with a genocidal apartheid state. Is that why you entered politics?

"Are they still a friend?" Middle East minister Stephen Doughty: "Of course they are still a friend & indeed a partner" Israel is a genocidal apartheid state led by someone wanted for war crimes. That's who we're friends & partners with.

So what we know now; Israel knew of the impending attack, a festival was moved into the path of the attack, Israel killed probably hundreds of its own people, 400 of those who died were security services, the tales of atrocities were hugely exaggerated. The Guardian skips all that of course.

Part of the British Establishment propaganda campaign over Palestine is to pretend the 2 state solution has a pulse, that way the reality facing Palestinians can be avoided even as Israel openly declares there will never be a Palestinian state. The Guardian of course as ever is onboard the lie.

I can't disagree with this at all. I would add the issue of Garvaghy Rd which has quite a few of the British political class questioning their own membership to an outdated predominantly male organisation which dabbles in sectarianism & links to paramilitary groups of a violent nature.

Ukraine can defend itself while negotiating, or it can agree to a conditional ceasefire. This madman drivel really needs to end. How come whenever the West decides to start a war the target is always a madman, Always. I mean it can enable genocide but the opponents are always madmen.

Steve Clarke @gaudd.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

Ukraine has insisted on an unconditional ceasefire, that is unacceptable to Russia for very obvious reasons. No conditions mean that Ukraine simply can rearm, see Minsk2. Europe backs this stance as they have no interest in genuine peace talks. Ukraine can at any time join talks..

Steve Clarke @gaudd.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

You do know there is not a factual accuracy in your post. It was not Russia who walked away from peace talks in 2022 nor was it Russia who declared Minsk2 dead in January of that year too. In fact Russia has repeatedly said it is open and ready for genuine negotiations..

Steve Clarke @gaudd.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

At what point does the UK/EU decide that their proxy war has failed and Ukraine has suffered enough. Every poll shows that Ukrainians want the war to end through negotiation. Zelensky does not, for when this war ends he has a reckoning to face, and that he is not keen on at all.

000

Steve Clarke @gaudd.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

The support the UK/EU have given has lead to the population of Ukraine being halved since the start of this war. It has led to daily scenes around the country of unwilling men being beaten and dragged into vans to be trained for three days and pushed to the front. Its economy is shattered..

Steve Clarke @gaudd.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

Ukraine, or rather Zelensky, allowed his country to be used in a proxy war. One that the West believed would be quickly won by crippling economic sanctions. The objective, to collapse the Russian Federation as it nearly achieved in the 1990s. Some never gave up that goal and here we are today..

Steve Clarke @gaudd.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

A negotiated peace. Not the one the West sabotaged in 2022 as Ukraine has lost that opportunity, that's what happens when you fight a failed proxy war.

Steve Clarke @gaudd.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

Now the EU could try a different approach; it could accept that the world is changing and adapt to that change. If it continues its King Cnut act then the most likely outcome is that it will drown. Slavery to the US as economies tank is what the EU's ideological insanity has gained .

000

Steve Clarke @gaudd.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

The third is that the population of Europe isn't slow to notice that their needs are being abandoned in the relentless pursuit of ideology. It is leading to the rise of the far right and undermining trust in governments which in the end may produce a level of self harm which dooms the EU..

Steve Clarke @gaudd.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

The second major flaw is that the dedication to geopolitical games has witnessed the rise of those ideologically dedicated to such, where ideological commitment trumps ability and talent. We thus have imbeciles in top posts in the EU who are quite frankly out of their depths..

Steve Clarke @gaudd.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

Trump can now demand whatever he wants from the EU, impose whatever he wants, and the EU will instantly fold. Anything to keep him onboard the proxy war. So it pays 4 times the amount for LNG and of course its economies are suffering accordingly. The powerhouse of the EU is collapsing..

Steve Clarke @gaudd.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

And as ever they view the US as a major tool in the hegemony arsenal. Unfortunately for the EU there are flaws with this approach. The first being the US looks after its own interests second, Israel of course coming first. So the US is taking full advantage, to the EU's detriment..

Steve Clarke @gaudd.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

Well it quite depends on how you protect it, and if you are willing to publicly abandon the globalisation and free trade policy that you previously espoused. The EU doesn't appear to want to do that, instead it appears to want to prevent others competing. It wants to preserve hegemony..

Why is demanding Ukraine fight to the last Ukrainian in a western proxy war right in any way?

Steve Clarke @gaudd.bsky.social · 02/10/2026

China is a threat as it had the temerity to stop being a supplier of cheap labour and began to outcompete the West. Russia is a threat as it is huge in both landmass and natural resources, and insists of taking it;s own path. The rest are there to be exploited not to seek a seat at the table

Steve Clarke @gaudd.bsky.social · 02/10/2026

Josep Borrell summed the EU attitude to the rise of the global south and the multipolar world as the war of the Garden vs the Jungle. That is precisely the ideology of the neoliberal cabal running the EU, and the UK as well of course. It's a war they see as one of civilizations that they must win..

Steve Clarke @gaudd.bsky.social · 02/10/2026

Oh not by any means. The UK is bad and so is the EU. Two negatives do not make a positive. Rejoin the EEA by all means, but as long as the EU is obsessed with its war of civilizations to the detriment of all else, then we keep out.

Steve Clarke @gaudd.bsky.social · 02/10/2026

The pre-Trump US enabled genocide, a war in Iraq where 1m died and produced a Dem UN representative who declared half a million dead Iraqi children a price worth paying. China, Russia, Iran and all the rest are not seeking confrontation, we are, and the reason is we are being eclipsed.

Oh and btw the Leave campaign during Brexit took their play sheet from the British Establishment's fear mongering No campaign during the Scottish independence referendum. Comes back to bite doesn't it?

Steve Clarke @gaudd.bsky.social · 02/10/2026

And we have also recently seen that when a democratically elected government in Europe dissents from the neoliberal warmongering hymn book they're threatened with punishments. Is that a sign of democracy? There's no democracy in the EU now, there is conformity or else.

Steve Clarke @gaudd.bsky.social · 02/10/2026

That's some heavy lifting there. Macon and Merz are barely above single digit popularity, the engine house of the EU. And as we have seen over the past few year, Panzer Leyen considers herself the president of Europe. Who voted for her? Who voted for Kallas, a total imbecile..

"Russia often uses real facts and citizens' concerns in its propaganda. Therefore, it can be difficult to recognize its influence," - President of Moldova, Sandu, Um... So Russia.. um.. reality.. OK, no, I have no clue what she is complaining about there either. "Stop mentioning facts" Maybe?

The poll numbers however aren't so good when voters are asked about a single currency and free movement. As it is, it's going to be interesting to watch how Burnham explain that a 2nd referendum on Europe is democracy in action, but a 2nd referendum on Scottish independence is out of the question.

A corrupt US politician, hold the front page. I would be more shocked if it was revealed a Republican wasn't corrupt, and that goes for most Dems too. The whole US political system is rotten with corruption, it is why Israel can buy it wholesale.

So far the Iranian plot that Burnham and Trump have confirmed consists of 5 guys in 3 vans carrying an oil transportation company logo which contained 1 barrel of diesel and several empty barrels. Unusually all suspects have been granted bail. Why is the media not asking questions?

Palestinian villagers wailed over the mangled remains of their olive trees on Wednesday after Israel's military uprooted them with bulldozers, days ahead of the annual ‌olive harvest, normally a source of joy for Palestinians in the occupied West Bank.

I voted Remain in 2016 but I would vote against rejoining the EU now. The reason being that the EU in 2026 is not the EU of 2016. The EU now cares nothing for the social or economic well being of Europe and its citizens, it is wholly dedicated to its ideological war of civilisations.
