While today he presents himself as the defender of Palestinians under Israeli bombardment, the Russian intervention in Syria was supported by Labour’s former leader Jeremy Corbyn, and his director of communications Seamus Milne. This is why Syrians continue to despise him.

Four days before Russia entered Syria, The Observer published an interview with Corbyn in which he said he supported Russian soldiers deploying to Syria. theguardian.com/politics/2015/…

Separately from Syria, Corbyn blamed NATO for both of Russia’s invasions of Ukraine, oppose arming Ukraine, and publicly doubted the Kremlin’s Salisbury poisonings, the last of which irrevocably destroyed his opinion ratings with the British electorate. theguardian.com/uk-news/2018/m…

Time, after time, after time, Corbyn has defended, excused, or apologised for Russia’s hostile foreign policy positions, and the evidence for that is stark & overwhelming. Yet his supporters continue to present the lie that he has always stood on the right side of history.

This take is so dumb that it tips into being accidental anti-Palestinian atrocity denial

I dont think the morons in charge of the US government and the military realize it, but it is a lot easier to hire more infantry troops than insisting on experts on various technologies (that actually make the US military so powerful) doing some crazy PT nonsense...

Y'all cancelling a music platform ceo for investing to defence tech or cancelling a coffeeshop for made up reasons but you're not ready to pass on russian games made in russia funding russian aggression. I'm so fed up with western activism.

Funny, isn’t it? It’s a HUGE story. Concrete proof of Russian penetration of an influential right wing European party with the obvious aim of destabilisation. It ought to be making banner headlines. It ought to lead to a thorough & extensive criminal investigation with raids,

I'll shut this down right now: If Kamala had made trans rights a bigger part of her campaign, these people would accuse her of neoliberal weaponization of idpol and say she needed to talk more about class issues. You can't win with them.

It won't stop Putin from focusing all Russian state resources on the war against Ukraine and Europe, but the widespread tendency to assume that Russia's economic system is invincible has always been problematic

It is kinda weird how people have forgotten that Qatar is a critical military ally.

The Dems finally figured out their comm issues. The trick is to explain things to Americans as if they’re mentally challenged (they are)

Maybe that’s exactly the fucking problem? That Russia is not going to stop. And instead of shouting at NATO members trying to do something, you should at least advise them to shoot any Russian aircraft or drone violating their airspace.

Today, Romania has taken a decisive step to strengthen international sanctions against Russia. Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Romania 🇷🇴, co-initiated a new law adopted by the Gov't that transforms sanctions violations and circumvention from an administrative offence into a serious crime. Our message is

This implies Ru could've done something differently like taken the ceasefire or offered a concession, but here's the rub-- their goals are maximalist, this isn't strategy, it's intransigence. It's time to understand there will be no negotiations unless Ru is facing collapse.

The decline of Merkel's reputation has been precipitous, and remarkably, she does not seem to care a great deal.

When the AI bubble bursts the economy is gonna be ravaged

Seeing this made me realise that most if not all UA infantry vets will feel similar I think, that some part of us died; caked in sweat, blood, and black soil; in a damp, loamy, and nameless corner of some bygone farmland, alongside the brothers we've lost. We will all carry that.

I'm in Sloviansk, eastern Ukraine. Three massive Russian glide bombs just tore into the city a few kilometers away, big enough to feel their shockwaves in my apartment. Just an average night for Donbas.
