So let me get this straight, the attack on Iran is to save its people from their rulers and to do that Merz thinks those people should be denied recourse to international law. Did he think that throuhπŸ€”

Spanish PM Pedro SΓ‘nchez on Iran: β€œSpain is against this disaster. Because we understand that governments are here to improve people's lives, to provide solutions to problems, not to make people's lives worse.

Has anyone, ever wasted such a massive majority in the house whilst still managing to devastate their own future so comprehensively before?

And all to please the rich as they burn their own support.

They never cared about the human cost of delivering their little pampered paradise.

Fuck them. Heartless cunts.

"I want a change of regime in Iran.
But what’s happening isn’t about freeing the Iranian people. It’s an imperialist, capitalist war started by bullies who take whatever they want & murder whomever gets in their way, including humanitarian and health workers"

Why would we be spending our taxes to help people who turned their backs on the country?

Does she mean panicking immigrants? Funny how they always use that pathetic little exceptionalist euphemism.

Male depression is a real problem that sadly gets conflated with male entitlement, especially in progressive circles.

Toxic masculinity is absolutely a thing but they are not the same thing. And sometimes helping guys who are struggling can nip that in the bud.

They have become a humanity vacuum. All traces of decency will be destroyed in their determination to ignore elephants.

No, no, no - you’re not alienating Muslim voters, Shabana.

You’re alienating progressive voters.

Ya know, the ones who put you into office? Your actual voting base?

It looks like lessons will not be learned after all.

With the current internal turmoil is Iran really in a position to instigate attacks on Israel?

Criticism is a measured assessment. It is fairly easy to distinguish from pathetic, desperate name calling.

Hmmm, if he thinks 40% of the voters are the "extreme of the left" I would suggest he needs to recalibrate somewhat.

No brainer for anyone who really wants to stop the RW (abd LW) extremes.
