In a desperate attempt to make Trump and Netanyahu's war all about the UK government, you simultaneously have the Your Party tendency sowing a narrative that we're already fighting on America's side... and the Ladybird Libertarians calling it the greatest humiliation since the Fall of Singapore.

was nine years old when a Labour
government followed the US into an
illegal war in Iraq, sold to the public on
lies.

Twenty-three years later, we're back
on the streets opposing another Labour
government and another illegal war -
this time against Iran.

We have suffered our worst national humiliation since the Suez debacle, if
not the fall of Singapore. This time, though, we lack the excuse of having
been pressured by alies or attacked by foes. The decision to cower and
plead neutrality even as Iranian proxies were lobbing ordnance at us was
entirely our own.
Sir Keir Starmer's pusillanimity has left us looking weak, needy and
duplicitous. And all for what? Anxiety about anti-lsrael voters in
constituencies like Gorton and Denton? Fear of crossing our human-rights
obsessed Attorney General, Lord Hermer?
Paywall down.

In Congressional hearing, Pam Bondi told members of Congress that they should not question Trump about his Epstein ties because the DOW was above 50,000. It is far below that now. So, will she now agree to answer honest, pertinent questions about Trump's involvement in a child sex trafficking ring?

Given the unanimous reporting of our media wanting us to join an illegal war the citizens of this country are not buying it. Have the media barons pushed the public too far? I do hope so. I think their anti Starmer rhetoric has worn very thin.

I remember when ‘Brexit Means Brexit’ became a way for silly people to insist that they supported something they could neither justify nor explain. Obviously the context is very different, but something similar is already happening with the ‘war’ in Iran. And it’s mostly the same people doing it.

WAR CRIME BY THE US. An unarmed Iranian ship was takIng part in an Indian naval exercise, alongside the US. The US withdrew and torpedoed the Iranian ship. THEN the US refused to rescue the sailors, letting them drown. This is treachery, cowardice, cruelty and a war crime of the highest order.

Letters in The Times and iPaper that reflect the views of British people far better than the deeply partisan, stupid and disloyal headlines of the rightwing press. Showing there is simply no issue on which they will just calm down and support a Labour govt. Not one. Not even in a war no one wants.

Sir, For the first time I totally disagree with one of your editorials, which states that the UK should join the war alongside the Americans. To keep the UK out of this conflict is the bravest, strongest act by Sir Keir Starmer in this parliament. The Iranian regime without doubt is odious but this war is doomed to fail, just like the ones in Iraq and Afghanistan. It is not supported by the majority of Americans and will cost billions of dollars and many lives. At least the prime minister has learnt the lessons of history - unlike his counterpart in the White House.
Dr Susan Kempson
Haddington, East Lothian

PM is right to be cautious on Iran

I read James Ball's balanced column
"Trump's Iran gamble could unravel his
presidency" (The i Paper, 3 March) with interest and, yes, his all-guns-blazing action might indeed come back to haunt him.
He and his gung-ho colleagues may have read the room wrong and the American people will be furious if many of their young people die as a result of this war.
Seemingly diplomacy is at an end and his presidential call of
"America First" rings eerily empty. There is no doubt that the Iranian regime which targeted its own people had to be stopped, but is this the best way to do it?

My son was sent to the Gulf when Blair involved the UK in the last American-led fiasco.
He still bears the mental scars. Consequently, Starmer's reluctance to get involved now is good news to me.
L DGODDARD
ASHFORD

Those who criticise
Sir Keir Starmer for not supporting Donald Trump might consider the possible consequences. Has it occurred to them that the Prime Minister is trying to minimise the risk of Iranian retaliatory action, either militarily or by individuals, by refusing to participate in this conflict? His duty to protect UK citizens is a priority.

“He’s no Churchill” No but thank god he isn’t, we don’t need to follow US around and get involved in their wars. “He’s trashed the special relationship” I’m pretty sure the guy who degraded our war dead, enforced punitive tariffs, belittled our greatest city and law. He did that. Not Starmer
