And btw, there is no doubting that the US-Israeli bombing of Iran was illegal.

Keir Starmer is giving the US permission to bomb Iran from Britain while retaining secrecy over the precise US military presence in the UK.

We believe these are the key US military/Intel sites in Britain, which include major air bases and smaller sites.

France, Germany and the UK say they are prepared to β€œdefend their interests and those of allies” in the Gulf, including taking β€œdefensive action” against Iran.

β€œThe decisive question is whether Europe can decide, command, and act together at speed, and whether political leaders are ready to own the consequences. Defence is ultimately about responsibility.”

Keir Starmer has said that the US can use British military bases for 'defensive actions', which includes bombing Iran. One of those bases is RAF Fairford in Gloucestershire.

Starmer has taken us to war and made us all targets.

Pentagon offers no evidence to support claim it attacked Iran in defense The Trump administration’s effort to construct a case for war after shots started flying has few historical parallels.

Cool, cool.

International law died yesterday. And Europe helped kill it. Macron, Starmer and Meloni gave their stamp of approval to Trump's illegal invasion of Venezuela to run the country and take its oil. Who can take them seriously now on Russia's invasion of Ukraine?

European leaders have acquiesced to the end of international law. They can no longer credibly speak of upholding it. This has implications for πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡¦.

We need to be realistic about this, and decide where we go from here.

There is no more international law.

To all those people who repeated the US/Israeli lie that it was an Iranian missile that hit the school in Iran:

#GMB: "An Israeli missile struck this school in Minab, killing at least 150"

Any reason they didn't say 'children'?

It is utterly depraved that our governments talk about the criminality of Iran to justify the slaughter of children while Israel is now expelling hundreds of thousands from their homes in Lebanon with massively expanded bombardment. Nearly the entirety of the Western world is without redeeming value
