Hi there!
commondreams.org is on my PiHole block list for some reason, is it a low quality news source, or some such? It’s not a news outlet I’ve heard of, at least.
Edit: Ah, because it’s a shell going to a CDN that scoops up data and such, seemingly.

You say they, not including yourself.
You’re a member of the rich ruling class, then?
It’s an interesting perspective that working class teenagers brought this on themselves.
They generally seem quite restricted in their agency and impact, indeed they are usually the most vocal and proactive age group for bringing about positive change, but the incumbent oppressive system of late stage capitalism (not any one individual, group or organisation, but the collected interests and power of the ruling class put through the lens of capitalism) resists that change with great strength.
If the USA government says it’s not involved, that means it’s involved, right? Every lie from them is a truth these days.
Interesting way to say a British ship was attacked in International waters.
Lets sit back and watch my government do fuck all about it.
Maybe they can give Israel some money to make them feel better? There there poor Israel, the naughty aid workers are in prison now it’s okay that food won’t reach the people that need it, phew that was a close one.
Are you suggesting there’s a separation between church and state? howdareu
My TV doesn’t have a Jellyfin app, only a Plex app. I’m not buying a new TV just to use my preferred media server, sadly :-(
…Why must every single news story about anything happening anywhere in the world somehow be about the USA?
I tire of constantly having America thrown in my face at every juncture, even when they’re not relevant.
I’m curious how they would convert this to be a functional Air Force One plane.
That aircraft is disassembled and reassembled almost entirely on a regular basis to keep it in tip top shape and find sabotage and issues, etc.
It’s also equipped specially with military defences, and of course has an onboard suite of equipment and personnel to run a war from the sky, in air refuelling, etc etc.
It’s an EXTREMELY specialised version of that very reliable aircraft, is what I’m saying.
How would they bring this new plane up to that standard, and why should they waste tax money on doing so? What’s the benefit to the nation?
It all seems ridiculous from the outside looking in. It seems that they’re just trying to appease a stupid man who thinks like a dodgy car salesman, and thus is happy to accept big dumb bribes, always getting the worst end of a deal, when the smarter people play him over and over.
…no?
A ritual dance is physical intimidation? I suppose you’d say having aggressive body language (looking angry) is physical intimidation too.
We should put all government officials on valium so they don’t accidentally get too emotionally invested in what they’re discussing, lest they accidentally physically intimidate someone with an angry face.
Obviously ministers with resting-bitch-face will have to be permanently barred from attending parliament, for the safety of their colleagues. We wouldn’t want such blatant physical intimidation on the day to day after all.
The point being, if you think a native ritual dance is the same as being physically intimidated, rather than seeing it as their culture’s way of expressing their feelings on some important matters, then you’re entirely missing the point and showing a lack of understanding of your own nation’s culture at a basic level, and probably shouldn’t be representing those same citizens at the government level.
I imagine politicians that clueless would just say “Oh my, the natives have gone feral! Look at that display of raw physical intimidation! Jeeves, fetch my musket and don’t fire till you see the whites of their eyes!”
If you feel physically intimidated by what is essentially some well known and well respected people in a debating hall being angry about the current topic of discussion and telling you they’re angry in a recognised and common cultural manner, then I can’t help you.
Are these guys Labour like the UK’s Labour (basically a centre-right wing party in disguise these days), or are they legitimately a left-wing pro socialist workers rights party, like Labour should be?
If the latter, good for them! They deserve good things over there.
This is an Art Attack,
gasp, they won’t let him visit the guy that went through the death camp?

Drone bombing? So, like, starting a war?
I’ll be interested to see how that pans out. Another powerful Dictator recently invaded a much smaller weaker nation, and that didn’t turn out how everyone expected, so…
Strange, what reason did the USA give for economically attacking all of their trading partners except Russia and Russia’s close allies?
How do you know what country we’re in?
Are all nations helping Israel? That seems unlikely.
The “undesirables” that saw the signs early enough to escape Germany before the real purges began were the smart, lucky ones.
We often forget about them, but I’m glad they got out. I’m happy to see similar lucky escapes happening today, though sadly I suspect for every person that’s able to escape now, ten thousand will meet a dark end at the hands of US Blackshirts later :-(
no no u don’t understand, brexit will free us from the evil european foreigners grip allowing us to make good deals, some say the best deals, with medicine providers, saving the british people from the suffocating unelected brussels smothering that’s causing all our problems!!!
we’ll finally be rid of all the euro migrants coming over here with more qualifications than us, taking our highly paid jobs and providing valuable social services to the people. it’s a disgrace and must be stopped!! blue passports!!!
Probably the Americans.
Let’s see if they bother to take any actual real action though, or if they just keep insisting there’s nothing they can do.
I have a vested interest in them actually doing something positive about their situation, because in a few years if they don’t, Europe and her allies will find itself in a World War, defending itself from Fascist USA aggression :-(
Scumbags?
Good luck, 47.
