If we had held the war criminals of Iraq accountable perhaps we would not be doing the same thing again. But instead we gave them a podcast.

Breaking: German Chancellor Friedrich Merz says "Israel is doing the dirty work for all of us" to ZDF network at G7 summit

Phew

We don’t have to imagine any more lads.

this point of difference is significant I think, last time round they put some effort into their lies, enough that respectable people could repeat them with a straight face. this time they are cutting to the chase.

This is the massive and dangerous norm erosion that has taken place over the last 20 years. And it has to be put at the door not of right-wing populists but of Third Way triangulators who've totally sold the pass on human rights, the rule of law, democracy, and truth in politics.

this is probably a total coincidence, but it turns out the thing that is needed to save western civilization is - once again - whatever israel's interests are in a region 7000 miles from america. I am as surprised as you are

"UK ministers say allegations of genocide are for courts to decide upon, while government lawyers in court assert that there is no genocide. This is not just moral evasiveness but tactical contradiction, designed to sustain arms sales & diplomatic cover." theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

you've really got to be kidding me
