I assume that when you stare in to THIS void, there's audio description.

A imagem é um meme composto por duas fotos do mesmo homem, com textos em verde sobrepostos. Na parte superior, o texto diz: "We're bombing Iran?" (Estamos bombardeando o Irã?). Na parte inferior, o texto diz: "But I thought violence wasn't the answer?" (Mas eu pensei que a violência não era a resposta?). O homem tem cabelo curto e escuro, barba por fazer e está vestindo uma camisa vermelha com gola branca. Ele está em um ambiente interno, possivelmente um tribunal, com um fundo desfocado. A expressão do homem é séria e pensativa, refletindo a mensagem do texto.

The global rejection of the genocide in Gaza had begun to carve its way into political decision-making circles in the “West,” where Israel has always received its impunity.

Five countries — the UK, Australia, Canada, New Zealand, and Norway — imposed sanctions on Itamar Ben-Gvir and Bezalel Smotrich, the Israeli ministers most explicit in their genocidal intent.

This was the first time I've ever cried from a film. And that experience made me addicted, both to Steven Spielberg and A.I. and also to watching films seriously. Taking in what the directors is trying to do. Letting the film overwhelm you. Letting it break you. And perhaps made me a better filmmaker myself.

Spain claims exemption after NATO agrees 5% spending deal byteseu.com/1128694/ #Europe #NATO


Keir Starmer has been accused of providing "political cover" for Israel and the US after Trump attacked Iran's nuclear sites.

The PM has been urged to push for de-escalation of the conflict through diplomacy, while others criticised the UK’s response as “siding with the aggressors” and "enabling escalation".

Following the attack, Starmer said the US had taken action to "alleviate" the threat of Iran developing a nuclear reaponse.

If you're afraid of the consequences of doing your job in the open, then what you are doing is wrong.


Wondering how the Govt. is going to fund the £1bn in job support for the disabled that is to make up for the £5bn cut in benefits?

So is the Treasury...

While the cuts are to be voted on soon, strangely there's been no news on how the supposed into-work support (that was supposed to ensure no-one really lost out) is to be funded....

This is just business as usual for (any) Govt. - easy to announce & push through cuts.... less so, (new) supportive services!

" #Trump said you can measure a presidency by the wars you avoid, and for once he was right. Saturday's Iran bombing was the exclamation point on his abject failure

Trump is copying dictators from Mussolini to Putin in seeking glory through pointless war"

2/ "This is not America’s war. Those bombs were not dropped on Iran in my name, or yours. This is Donald Trump’s war, and his alone. There is arguably no justification for waging unprovoked war, either under U.S. or international law. There is certainly no moral or logical justification. In launching an attack without consent from Congress, without public debate, and with minimal consultation with allies, Trump’s move is the 180-degree opposite of what America’s founders intended."

3/ "The truth is that Donald Trump is not, in his blackened, Big Mac-clogged heart, a warmonger. Trump is also not a peacemaker. His attitude about war and peace, life and death, and policies that reverberate for 340 million Americans, 91 million Iranians, and the rest of the world centers on One Big Idea: What’s in it for Trump? His only ideology is toxic narcissism."
in reply to Laffy

4/ "But however what’s left of Iranian leadership decides to retaliate, or not retaliate, Trump’s rash and irrational war-making is only going to accelerate America’s slide into authoritarianism. Trump would not be the first U.S. president, unfortunately, to use the threat of a terror attack to curb the First Amendment rights of everyday Americans, but he would take it to a new level."

5/5 "This is a moment for resistance and for accountability, in whatever ways are possible today, and more forcefully once the people can take our country back. And it starts with this basic understanding: that Trump is revealing the fallacy behind “strongman” rule.

He bombed Iran because he is a weak man."

Andrea Pitzer said the same thing: 47 wants to create a world in which he is the never-ending center of attention and will do anything to bring that into being. That's all he is about. This will not change. When I worked with someone who turned out to be a sociopath and began learning about what they're like, one thing was clear and that was they are not able to change.

Sadly all it took (probably) was Bibi saying to TFG, "If you had any guts, you would take care of this."

Weakling, fragile ego Trump, just had to do it then.

in reply to Laffy

Yep, those are the right words to describe what drives #Trump ; “toxic narcissism” !!!

Among American Jews, Jewish identity has often been framed as a problem in need of resolution, most often through the framework of Zionism and the project of the Israeli nation-state.

This perspective insists that Jewish identity must be grounded in statehood, militarism, and loyalty to a specific territory.
