IRAN WAR: ‘The UAE🇦🇪 has been the MOST EFFECTIVE militarily of any of the Gulf States.

They do have the capacity to defend themselves, more so than most of the other Gulf States.’

Israel’s Finance Minister Smotrich:

‘Israel has no interest in joining the limited confrontation between Iran and the United States…the current situation is the best possible for us.’

Drag the US into a war for your apartheid state, and leave the US’ soldiers to fight and die in the war you wanted.

‘America’s closest ally.’

Why the US🇺🇸 hates Cuba🇨🇺 and makes up fictitious lies to justify a regime change war against Cuba:

Nelson Mandela to Fidel Castro:

"Our friend Cuba, which helped us in training our people, gave us resources to help us with our struggle, trained our people as doctors. You have not come to our country…when are you coming to South Africa?”

When the US speaks of ‘third worldism’, it means Cuba has backed liberation struggles against US-backed barbaric regimes in the global south.

Pete Hegseth: The US has spent $37 BILLION for the war on Iran

Here’s what $37 billion ($290 per household) could have gotten for the American people:

370,000 teachers at an average total annual compensation of about $100,000 (salary plus benefits).

740,000 affordable homes if each unit cost around $50,000 in federal subsidy.

More than 10 years of the National Cancer Institute’s budget, which is roughly $7 billion annually.

About four years of the CDC’s budget, which is roughly $9 billion per year.

Nearly the entire annual budget of NASA, which is around $25–30 billion, with billions left over.

More than three times the annual cost of the Post-9/11 GI Bill, which serves hundreds of thousands of veterans and students.

Over 9 million Pell Grants of $4,000 each for college students.

Replacing or renovating thousands of bridges and schools, depending on project size.

37 new state-of-the-art hospitals at around $1 billion each.

740 elementary or high schools costing roughly $50 million each to build.

370,000 nurses for one year (assuming total compensation of about $100,000 each).

On this day in 1946, Zionist terrorists of the Irgun organisation, led by future Israeli PM Menachem Begin, bombed the King David Hotel, the British Administrative HQ in Palestine.

At the time, it was the deadliest terror attack targeting British subjects. Disguised as Arab workmen and waiters, the members of the Irgun planted a bomb in the basement of the main building of the hotel, whose southern wing housed the Mandate Secretariat and a few offices of the British military headquarters. The resulting explosion caused the collapse of the western half of the southern wing of the hotel.

91 people of various nationalities were killed, and 46 were injured in the attack. In 2006, former Irgun fighters and right-wing politicians commemorated the attack on the King David Hotel in celebration with a conference, and also unveiled a plaque in front of the King David Hotel in a ceremony.

Current Israeli Prime Minister and genocidal war criminal Benjamin Netanyahu attended the celebration and gave a speech defending the Zionist terrorists of Irgun.

Donald Trump claims the American people aren’t against the war on Iran despite the high gas prices, because they don’t want Iran to have a nuclear weapon.

This is the most unpopular war in American history. 59% of Americans oppose the war according to a July Washington Post/Ipsos poll.

Trump is destroying his own Presidency with foreign policy delusions, spoken into his ear by an echo chamber of neocons.

Donald Trump salutes as the 4 US soldiers killed by Iranian strikes are brought back home.

As this war continues and becomes more severe, scenes like this will become more regular, causing disaster for his own Presidency…

As the US population becomes increasingly more outraged by the pointless, failed war.

The question that will baffle historians for decades is why an American President torpedoed his own Presidency for a war for Israel’s national security interests, and a war which served none of the US’ security interests.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio:

'The people who are in charge of the country don’t know what they’re doing. They don’t know how to fix their economy. They don’t understand basic concepts.’

Cuba estimates the losses caused by the US embargo to be US$2.1 trillion (adjusted for the price of gold).

The US strangles Cuba’s economy by not even allowing fuel imports.

Marco Rubio either doesn’t understand basic concepts of how US sabotage and economic strangulation crippled a country, or is deliberately lying.

JUST 6% of Britons would volunteer to fight if the UK🇬🇧 faced an invasion, and only 14% would serve if called upon.

The shocking poll was conducted by YouGov.

Aside from Britons not wanting to die for a corrupt elite in a pointless war against Russia🇷🇺

Here is another potential reason for Britons not willing to fight and die for their politicians:

"I speak as a goy, a mere goy…the Jews were put on the face of the earth to be a light unto nations, and Israel is being that light.”

—Retired British Army Officer Richard Kemp:

This is what you get when the British military is associated with a genocidal apartheid state, and nothing but war crimes and imperialism abroad.

Why would just 6% of Britons volunteer to fight if the UK🇬🇧 faced an invasion?

Here’s how the British Army treated Iraqi children during the illegal invasion and occupation of Iraq.

After the British population have been left to suffer economic decline and mediocrity for decades, and have been robbed by an oligarchy….

The British public do not want to serve in a country associated with war crimes and barbarism, even if their own homeland were invaded.

🇺🇦🇷🇺Ukraine’s new Commander-in-Chief Drapaty makes derogatory remakes about the people of Donetsk and Luhansk, calling them criminals, and saying many of them don’t want to work and only want freebies.

Remember, this is how Ukraine’s officials see the people of Donbass, who they supposedly consider as citizens of Ukraine.

Russian-speaking civilians in Eastern Ukraine were treated as second-class citizens since the Maidan Coup, which laid the groundwork for the slaughter of their own people in Donbass.

Now that these regions have joined Russia, the mentality exposes itself again.

Why would Russians in Donbass ever want to be part of a state that views them like this? A question NATO nation media will never explore.

Ex-Israeli Negotiator Daniel Levy on why the US-Iran MoU failed: ‘These agreements LACKED SERIOUSNESS & DETAIL.’

‘The MOU is a not unreasonable reflection of the respective balance of power coming out of a war that the US and Israel initiated where the US got very frustrated.

The outcome that they had envisaged did not come about. And so that MOU, I think, gave a basis on which not only to end that US-Israel war against Iran, but also to build something different.

The problem with it, the problems with it are manyfold.

But what you have is a paper of headlines, and if there was an understanding on the US side of what they had committed to and a good faith seriousness of purpose in seeing this through and in saying, “now we're going to expand on this, we're going to put the details on there”, then maybe this was the beginning of something.

But that's not what we've seen across any of the fronts, in which people who aren't versed in this material have been sent to negotiate on behalf of the United States, have reached these headline agreements.

And then it's been all about the interpretation comes down to the relationships of power.

So in Gaza it's a terrible agreement. Israel has the power, and Israel has continued and occupies more of Gaza…

But I'm saying if you look at the different agreements that the US has reached, because this is similar to the 20-point Gaza plan in some ways, what I'm saying is that these agreements lack seriousness and detail.

So the JCPOA, the original Iran nuclear agreement between the P5+1 and Iran, that's 150-odd pages with the annexes. This was two pages. You need to fill out that detail.

And so what I'm saying is it comes down to, is there a relationship of power in any given situation, which means that the text on paper can then be turned into something that the more powerful party seizes and uses to its benefit.’

Former Israeli Negotiator Daniel Levy: ‘Trump-Netanyahu Rift DOESN’T MATTER. Trump is still fighting a war against Iran which ISRAEL initiated.’

‘There is frustration on the part of the American president. That’s clear. We’ve seen some of the verbal jousting. 

It doesn’t matter very much. What matters is policy. And to what extent is the US still tethered to Israeli policy where it matters?

Frustration is not policy. Expletives are not policy. Your Vice President saying, ‘Hey, they’re running an intel operation, a covert ops info operation against me. What do they think they can do? Kill everyone in the region to peace?’

And yet Trump has done a deal between them and Lebanon, which serves Israel’s ongoing occupation of Lebanon. Israel is still allowed to get away with murder in the literal sense every day in Gaza, it’s Israel does as it pleases in the West Bank.

And you are still fighting against Iran in a war which Israel initiated for you.

Things are not going swimmingly. Things are particularly questionable when it comes to the fact that Israel’s going to an election. And will Trump support Netanyahu in that election? Undoubtedly.

The Americans signed an MOU with Iran that Israel did not like. Israel’s clearly losing the support of public opinion in the US. There is a war inside the MAGA camp.

But when you stack those things up alongside the long, long tail of decades of an American policy that has been so deferential and marinated in Israel’s interests, in what Israel wants you to do, then we’ve still got an awfully long way to go to break that Gordian knot.’

Donald Trump:

'I'm going to send Chuck Schumer a beautiful Palestinian outfit tomorrow so he can greet Bibi Netanyahu when he comes to town next week.’

Despite currently fighting a disastrous war against Iran which Netanyahu initiated for him, Trump still finds time to insult Palestinians and defend Israel.

A President completely owned by the Israel lobby.

Ex-Israeli Negotiator Daniel Levy: ‘Israel’s deal in Lebanon made Iran realise that the US was NOT SERIOUS About the Memorandum of Understanding.’

‘Israel didn't like the MOU with Iran. Israel was trying to undermine that MOU with Iran.

The deal done with Lebanon. The B team in Washington, if you like, there's one team doing the MOU with Iran, trying to get an end to that war. There's another team that didn't like the MOU, was looking at ways around it, was trying to still be Israel's guys in Washington.

So that second deal with Lebanon, I think played a significant, not a unique, not an exclusive, but a significant role in reminding the Iranians that the Americans weren't serious when it came to what they signed in the MOU.

You've now, in the last days, had the titular Lebanese President, Joseph Aoun visiting Washington. And there's this hullabaloo around Israel withdrawing from these so-called pilot zones, if it indeed sees through that tiny withdrawal in southern Lebanon.

But the Israelis have turned around and told us these are outside the security zone we've taken anyway, these were irrelevant. We only took these tiny areas to give them back. So it's a bit of a joke.

The Lebanese are trying to say, hey, this is the beginning of something. But the Israelis are being very clear. We are maintaining that occupation.

So this was one of the building blocks to undo the MOU. There were others.’
