The Brexit tendency seem to be absolutely losing their minds over the government's refusal to get bullied by America into an illegal war.
Quite something from the people who wanted "independence" and to "take back control."

'It would never have occurred to the US president that there needed to be an endgame in mind before dropping bombs on Tehran. The only plan Trump had ever had was to carry on until he got bored. Then he would stop and let the suckers clean up the mess.'

Trumpβs FAFO moment: America needs Europe after all
Having spent a year criticizing, insulting and threatening European leaders, Trump now sees the value of having friends in strategically important places β if they have military assets he can use, anyway.

Ukraine is fighting two parallel wars of attrtition against invader Putin:
1
Economic attrition using deep strike drones & missiles. Continuous hits on refineries, gas & oil infrastructure are strangling Putin's economy.
2
Attrition of the Russian military manpower & equipment. 1000 casualties/day
Remember the "Russia is winning, Russia's victory is inevitable, so Kyiv should surrender" narrative that the Kremlin started to push heavily last year?
It was amplified by the Trump administration and parroted by certain Western media that should have known better...
There may be something wrong with me. I find myself agreeing with Marjorieπ€ͺ

The American aims appear to be military.
Eg destroy the Iran navy.
It is not at all clear what the political aims are??
If the 600,000 armed Iranian personnel cannot be killed by missile strikes, what then occurs??
