The US. The UK. Palestine
The US
Well, folks another week in and as far as world events are concerned, a most unpleasant week it has been with further evidence of the incursions of the West in other countries affairs having extremely adverse effects on these countries.
Let me start with the US for although I have many dear friends who live in the US, I fear they suffer from extremely bad governments, and not only the people who live there but unfortunately, people all over the world.
I could probably write a book on the foreign policy disasters of the US, but don’t worry, I won’t, or at least not tonight anyway. However, it does seem that any country with reasonable natural resources is at risk of the US installing “democracy” in that country normally by way of NGOs ( Non-Governmental Organisations.
Yes, that is what they do, they set up these groups (generally through the good offices of the CIA) who look for merging areas of dissent. They then pour money into these small groups, making them big groups, and before you know where you are you have insurgent groups trying to oust governments. As happened in Syria, Libya, Ukraine, etc., etc. Sometimes of course they dispense with the formalities as they did in Afghanistan, and Vietnam, etc. etc, and simply invade the country, usually preceded by a false flag incident such as the Gulf of Tonkin or 9/11, where they blamed an ex-employee who had a Kalashnikov, a pair of sandals and was holed up in a cave in the Tora Bora mountains with a Nokia analog phone on which he planned the whole thing. For Al Quida read MOSAD.
Ok, so to cut a long story short, my American friends have chosen the short straw in choosing leaders and this year have the choice between Genocide Joe Biden who should be in a care home, and Donald Trump who should be in a lunatic asylum.
The UK
We in the UK had the good news today that our economy is in recession. The only surprising thing about that is that it took so long. The reason is that we started in 2016 when as an act of public suicide we left the EU and became a candidate for the next third world economy.
Now that was it seems, not bad enough, so a couple of years ago we then followed the US ( as per usual) and placed huge sanctions on Russia who supplied most of Europe with cheap gas and oil. As well as grain and agricultural products. Mind you the EU was as bad and now they are in an awful state with Germany almost crippled financially as after the US blew up the Nord Stream gas pipeline they had to depend on the US for gas supplies and Uncle Sam readily agreed to supply them at four times the price they had been getting from Russia. Talk about stupidity. Now Germany ( and the UK for that matter) are talking about going to war with Russia, taking idiocy to a new level.
We have a general election this year and it is going to be a laugh, because we have a choice between a Tory government that supports genocide in Palestine and who has gotten the country into a bloody mess, with its corrupt practices and a Labor party under “Sir “ Kier Starmer who’s family are Jewish and is firmly implanted into the rectum of the other genocidal nut Netanyahu of the manufactured country of Israel. Starmer says he talks daily on the phone with Netanyahu.
So, not a lot going for the UK at the moment.
Palestine
This brings me to Palestine and I really do not know what further I can say about these poor people. There is mass slaughter of Palestinians being perpetrated by Israel. They have ignored a judgment of the International Court of Justice, which instructed them not to continue killing Palestinians in a manner that could form Genocide.
They just go on and on ignoring all forms of humanity in their desperation to establish a greater Israel.
World opinion is speedily going against Israel but the problem is that meanwhile, the slaughter goes on. There are 195 countries in the world and only about 25 of them support Israel by way of designating Hamas as a terrorist organization. The rest, and the UN recognize Hamas as the elected government of Gaza and a resistance force.
In the north, we have the West Bank which borders Lebanon. There we have Hezbollah who are much stronger than Hamas and have been returning the aggression shown by Israel in no uncertain manner. These soldiers are battle-hardened by years of fighting in Syria against ISIS which is a terrorist organization formed by both Israel And the US. Israel will do anything to prevent an all-out war with Hezbollah.
In the bible, it reads that the end days will come with a final battle at Armageddon where good will battle evil. Armageddon is at Mount Megiddo. It is in Northern Israel.
So to all my friends the world over I wish you a pleasant weekend among all this doom and gloom brought to you by politicians the world over. Time for a pint and I will leave you with one of my wee quotes
Sit in the same place for long enough and the whole world will pass you by. You will, however, probably be arrested for vagrancy.
