I don’t think Iran would do such evil. However, if they were so minded, would they be more likely to hit a certain target in Florida or NY?

It’s from an Israeli government minister? I suppose you’d expect that line from a government of racists & mass murderers.

What will he do. Bomb their children’s schools? I doubt America’s international reputation has ever been lower.

Anything to do with Lawler’s uncritical support for Israeli mass murders, property destruction & theft in Palestine?

Perhaps the Israeli mass murderers need reassurance & counselling.

Imagine Putin had an asset in an US president. His wants would be for the asset to destroy the support of US allies, betray allies, lead US into a disastrous war, deplete US military resources, financially cripple US finances, undermine confidence in US rule of law & democracy, sow civil discontent.

If the UK authorities can take the citizenship of a silly teenager for associating with terrorists, why not take the citizenship of dual nationals convicted of corrupt major financial practices?

Such is the low moral state of the US, that they are sanctioning jurists of the International Court of Criminal Justice.

Let’s see. They steal their homes, their property, expel them, they carpet bomb them. They corral them into restricted zones. They continue to kill them. They expel the people What happens next? Camps? Mass killings? We know who did this before. Would it amaze to know who’s doing it now? Sadly no.

Mass murder, mass theft & apartheid. Shame on Israel & its allies.

As a European, I agree.

The US seems to be doing it best to separate the US from the world economy. They don’t seem to realise that they’re making Iran the heroes & the US/Israel the villains. That’s quite a feat.

That would be great.

He’s definitely a Russian asset. The question is whether he is intentionally or unintentionally.

Israel is built on apartheid & genocide. Its principal policy is to destroy Palestinians.When is Europe going to treat it like apartheid South Africa?

Does he think it’s okay for American born Israelis to take land from native Palestinians?

Rubio had to sanction the ICC. He was instructed to do so by the Israeli lobby in the US & must obey.

He’s also blowing through your international allies, goodwill and confidence.

Is there no depth that the Trump presidency will not go to humiliate themselves or the United States?

He’s given up on winning the Nobel Peace Prize and accepts he’ll only win the FIFA peace prize again.

The carpet bombing & the deaths of 33k children & about 60k adults, the theft, destruction of property on the West Bank, the reduction in Muslim & Christian populations from 85-90% in 1914 to what it is today. Hertzl, father of Zionism, foresaw land purchase, expropriation & removal of the natives.

The clear answer is that he cannot be trusted.

Opinion is saying, never mind the mass genocide perpetuated by Israel in Palestine, look at AI and social media. So much for morality.

She first asked Tucker Carlson if he recognised Israel’s right to exist. She admitted she was imbedded with the IDF for the Gaza War. Judge from that.

This is a sad waste of two military lives. How do Americans feel about the deaths of 30000 innocent children in Gaza, murdered by Israel with unconditional American support, or the thousands of Iranians people killed by Americans in a war America initiated?

Anything or anyone that annoys Trump has to be good.

You didn’t mention, the murder of 30,000+ children, 50,000+ Palestinian adults, the destruction of Gaza, the state supported pogroms in West Bank against Palestinians, the apartheid operation against Palestinians whose birthright is Palestine, the wars against Iran & Lebanon. Who owns you?

Gerard McDermott @gerardmcdermott.bsky.social · 16/07/2026
Is it exclusive or have you been fed this story by a very discredited US State Department? Concentrate on the misconduct allegations against the president of the United States. I’d believe the ICC any day over the USSD.

Gerard McDermott @gerardmcdermott.bsky.social · 14/07/2026
It would be funny if it wasn’t so serious. All US power now seems concentrated in Trump, who cares little for the rule of law. The US government is now intent on destroying the international rules based order.

A question for the Academy of Ideas: Imagine being a prominent member the Trotskyite Revolutionary Communist Party for two decades. You become a Tory appointed unelected life member of the House of Lords proclaiming libertarianism but criticise an independent individual for standing for election. ??

These are cheap comments from nasty anonymous people. He’s a private citizen who happened to bring a lot of entertainment to people over a long time, now retired and enjoying watching tennis.

WOS. This is the guy who campaigned successfully to have no controls on the consumption of water, one of our most important resources. Consequently it is wasted.

Trump got totally screwed over by a genocidal state called Israel. This is what will bring America down.

Americans lecture Europeans on civilisational decline but the evidence of such decline is in the US. Examples like Trump, a very corrupt political system, a politicised judicial and police, the corruption of honest media, the widespread use of firearms and an almost total disregard for the poorest.
