#r4today big fail by BBC news teams: so busy knocking Starmer mercilessly in the past few days they failed to see the dire effects Trump and Netanyahu's war would have eg on the world and UK economy - waking up to them today -- duh

#r4today BBC didn't seem to care that much when desalination plants and other sources of safe water were damaged in Gaza

Trump is isolating the US by attacking its allies – and playing into Putin's hands Russia’s president doesn’t need to do anything, he can just sit on the sidelines and watch as his enemies become increasingly divided

With all the fakery around, especially AI video rubbish, people just might start to recognise the importance of news outlets like, say, the BBC.
There's plenty wrong, and they are far from perfect, but you are going to get news from them that is, broadly speaking, honest and real.

No drone has hit Dubai Marina. It was debris from a successful interception Everyone is ok.

No drone has hit Dubai Marina. It was debris from a successful interception.

I wonder if a drone has hit Dubai Marina. Or whether it was just
debris from a successful interception.

If only loads of Dubai based accounts, including Isabel Oakeshott's, could tell me.

This is *nothing* dignified about wearing a cheap baseball cap that promotes yourself to the otherwise solemn ceremony to receive the bodies of the troops you had killed to distract from your bad economy and rampant pedophilia.

The gulf between what people think of Tony Blair commenting on war in the Middle East & what Tony Blair thinks people think of Tony Blair commenting on war in the Middle East is positively Badenochian.

the reverse version of those “evolution of man” drawings

This is no different from Putin saying MH17 was shot down by Ukraine or Assad saying rebels gassed themselves.

We’ve had these short wars and skirmishes for decades now. But before, even with significant ideological differences, there were always ‘adults’ in the room. Serious individuals who knew when to pause. Not now. We have a band of reckless delinquents and power crazed nutjobs running the show.

Speaking to reporters after the event, the president blamed Iran for an airstrike that hit an elementary school in Iran on Feb. 28, killing scores of children. “In my opinion, based on what I’ve seen, that was done by Iran,” he said, adding “They have no accuracy whatsoever.” A New York Times visual investigation indicates that the school was most likely hit by an American airstrike.

The NYT treats it like something debatable, when it’s madness! www.nytimes.com/live/2026/03...

Turns out, the Haber Bosch process working best with piles of cheap natural gas means that all the fertilizer is now made in like three places

Iran’s people were facing a horrible shortage of water before the war began. If we are destroying desalination plants and setting fire to Teheran we are committing unfathomable crimes.

My heart bleeds…

This is, objectively, the most hilarious thing I've seen on the socials today, and I've seen that Starmer/Military TikTok clip.

Waiting to see if Iran will look like Gaza here in a few months.

How much of the world will Trump destroy before he’s brought down is the question.

🧵Feels like shouting into the void, but it is essential to note that the Trump/Rubio gutting of the State Department and blowtorching of US diplomatic capacity and credibility is an accelerant to this spiraling war and will seriously undercut US/allied efforts to pick up the pieces after. 1/

Super excited to say that I’ll be serving my Clacton constituents today by flying to Mar-a-Lago to meet Donald Trump and to undermine the UK government. God I love being a patriot!”

Note that the electoral side is that important given how awful this proposal is but... I am sure the sight of sobbing children being handcuffed and dragged onto planes will boost the Government's standing with the progressive voters we're losing.
