I hope he has learned a lesson from Venezuela and Iran to keep his location secret and use indirect communications channels. When Trump starts "negotiating" it seems to be a prelude to decapitation.

Not the result of the Pentagon asking "Claude, where is the next target" then?

In his own mind he is a warrior.
In coverage he looks and sounds like a thug.

Trump says they have destroyed all Iran's missiles and air defence and have "won the war", also "does not need UK help". So what are they bombing now? We need to revoke use of RAF bases now or be complicit in the destruction of an ancient civilisation.

It's quite simple.
Some people think it right that Israel establish a Jewish state and take as much land as they need to do that. It's a point of view.
But don't be blind to the fact that the land is being stolen from others who already live there and some of them fight back.
The rest follows...

Trump says he "doesn't need UK support" and has "destroyed all Iran's missiles and air defences". So what are our RAF bases being used for? Defence? No. We should take him at his word and revoke use of the bases immediately and have nothing to do with this attack on an ancient civilisation.

With Putin and Trump on either side acting as though might is right and ideas you like are "true", Europe still stands for inclusiveness, moderation and science. There are other places in the world which do also. That the two powers have leaders at the moment who don't is no reason to change.

Putin, like Trump's minions, is on a crusade with evangelical zeal (and self enrichment). They are bedfellows in worldview.
Europe, trying to be moderate; tolerant; diverse and science led, representing as much of its population as possible, has an entirely different worldview.

Until the Armageddon they want.
Personally I can't wait until all the lunatics are "raptured" and then the rest of us can make the world a better place.

At least it it has reached some of the main press.
Make Armageddon Great Again.
These nutcases sometimes talk of Islam as a "death cult", but their Rapturism is the ultimate death cult.
I respond by offering Ragnarok.

Military Leaders Say Iran War Is So Trump Can Bring About “Armageddon” Troops have logged more than 110 complaints about such comments with the Military Religious Freedom Foundation.

Sheer insanity.
I have often observed that there is a section of the evangelical right in the US that thinks this, but I didn't suspect that it also infested the leadership and military.

Of course there will be a strong response.
Israel was expecting Hezbollah to get involved. It makes an excuse for another incursion into Lebanon. They now have troops available freed up from Gaza. This time they will keep it. "Greater Israel"

That will be reversed as soon as he realises it will catch some of his supporters with dodgy bank accounts.

Hegseth wants military robots that will descend to the same ethical level as ICE operatives.
If Anthropic complies I hope they realise that would make them liable for prosecution in any criminal actions their equipment commits.

Interesting, but the data seem only to show that spending on elderly goes up as the number of elderly goes up, which is surely quite obvious?
The problem of needing to increase investment means finding funds across the board. Time to tax pensions, earnings and capital gains all the same.

Not sure the UK is doing it for ethical reasons. Just lining up with the same stance from Saudi and Qatar. We don't want Iran retaliating against UK bases in the Middle East.
All this is why the second carrier group is needed. The attack can only be done from the sea.
Makes the US look quite weak.

Far too many rumours about what goes on there. Best one is that bin Laden wasn't executed, but is being held there.
Truth is that it is just a convenient stopover point for long distance missions and a "Camp Paradise" for free holidays.
Our part is small - see pic of "Brit Club" - impressive!
