Yep we need more pacifists & we need the voice of pacifists to be heard
18.10.2025 13:07 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0I am not a pacifist as I believe in necessary wars. However there are very few necessary wars
I believe in non violent conflict resolution a principle that is at the core of the UN Charter. Great Powers sign the Charter & agree to be bound by it & then ignore it
My position is not far from yours
As Trump stands back from NATO three politicians are attempting to provide leadership - Merz, Macron, Starmer
All deeply unpopular with their electorates
This seems deeply dangerous to me
Last post for the day
I am considering giving up my Royal titles
Starmerโs government that sells weapons to Israel, provided logistical support for Israeli arms imports from Cyprus & intelligence reconnaissance flights for Israel, has today had three govt departments working on getting Israeli fans to see a football match
67000 Palestinians dead but football eh?

Zionist Labour

Starmer moves rapidly to enable an Israeli football team to have its violent fans at the game
Did Starmer ever move this fast to prevent the slaughter of Palestinians?

Much speculation on the content of Trumps phone conversation with Putin.
Did the US threat of supplying Tomahawks to Ukraine force Putin to the negotiating table?
Or did Putin remind Trump of Russiaโs ability to hit NATO military targets anywhere in Europe with missile strikes?
Starmer et al fully support the banning of Russian football teams from European competition but complain when violent supporters of an Israeli team from probably the most violent country on the planet are banned from attending a European match

Propaganda is about what you are told but also what you are not told
I think it is clear where his loyalties lie. Has been for some time

These are serious accusations

British politicians currently obsessing over alleged Chinese spying on the UK but are silent about RAF spying flights over Gaza during an Israeli genocide
Complicity in genocide is cool apparently

I have seen no evidence of due process
So what threat to Britain does China represent?

Remember Zalenskโs democratic mandate as President expired in 2024
Most European citizens are blissfully unaware of how close our war mongering politicians are taking us to a full European conflict through their gambling with Armageddon
16.10.2025 18:25 โ ๐ 2 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0If NATO proceeds with the confiscation of Russian frozen assets to fund more war in Ukraine and supplies Tomahawk missiles which cannot be fired without US Officers Russia will be further provoked & may consider striking NATO states
How many European citizens want their leaders to risk WW3?
If NATO proceeds with the confiscation on frozen Russian assets
16.10.2025 17:36 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Gaza has taken much geopolitical attention recently but the situation in Ukraine will possibly deteriorate rapidly if Trump decides to supply Tomahawk missiles to Ukraine
Three & a half years of war , a million dead and Nato politicians cannot conceive of non violent conflict resolution
Sky News happily giving a platform to Netanyahu to broadcast his lies and hate
Platforming an indicted war criminal
Trump's deal does not address the issues that drove the crisis: the Israeli military occupation of Palestinians & denial of their self-determination. Israel is already violating the ceasefire terms by restricting the entry of aid to Gaza and carrying out attacks.

Havenโt seen many Labour fans in here recently
But came access a couple yesterday - as rude and insulting as ever
Does this government ever listen to expert practitioners such as yourself?
Commercial interests and focus groups dominate
A fundamental factor in the growth of Reform support is the failure of Tories & Labour to confront their racist rhetoric
Intellectual cowardice

Billionaires, the Nazis like Kirk, and the males who whine about being "lonely" and excusing becoming fascist, racist misogynists supposedly because their only "friends" are online Nazis like Kirk, and the politicians who want to "understand" and thus normalize them, need all to be brought down.
