The World This Week From Mennies

Friday 8 March 2024

Gaza, the US. Ukraine and Russia

Well, another week in and a busy one at that, so a few observations/ opinions on what is going on in the world.

Gaza and the U.S.

Well, the slaughter goes on, willingly sponsored by the US, Britain, France and a few other poodles of the US and Israel. You know, if it wasn’t so serious, it would be comical. The US gives Israel upwards of $3.8 billion per year and recently they have been in the process of putting this up to $14 billion.

It is just as well there is absolutely no poverty, or vets ( from various US wars ) sleeping on the streets, is there?

OK, so what happens to all these billions of US taxpayer’s dollars? Well, a lot of it goes on armaments to continue the genocide of the Palestinian people, who are now literally starving to death.

Now the next part is the really interesting bit because much of the rest of it finds its way back to the US, by way of sponsorship (bribes) to congressmen and politicians. In recent years there have been 278 US politicians who have been the beneficiaries of Israel’s inverted altruistic benevolence.

So, what does Israel get for this benevolence Well you can see it every day on your news feeds. They get unadulterated and unquestioned support for bombing innocent women and children. They get support for shooting children in the streets, They get support for deliberately starving the whole population of Gaza

So, that is the merry-go-round of US-Israeli aid, you mugs make the money, you pay taxes, and your taxes are given to Israel to commit genocide, who in turn bribe your politicians to condone genocide and continually vote to increase your donations to Israel. I won’t go into the files that Mossad have on a good number of politicians from many countries who continually allow propaganda trips to Israel which include hospitality, “appropriate” to the individual’s preferences and end up recorded in Mossad files for future use.

Now briefly, the US has just announced that they will set up a temporary port on the coast of Gaza to facilitate supplies of aid. This is the strangest excuse I have heard for a long time as there are hundreds, if not thousands, of trucks stuck at border posts by the Israeli army and all it needs to happen is for the US to stop armament deliveries until these trucks are allowed into Gaza.

Now a couple of suggestions as to the real reason for this Port. The first one is that it could be the forerunner of a land terminal to service the gas fields off the coast of Gaza, and the second suggestion is that it could be a base for a reverse exodus of people from Palestine to another country or countries ( similar to the Rwanda farce perpetrated by the UK) thereby assisting the ethnic cleansing that Israel has been involved in since their invention, 75 years ago.

Ukraine and Russia

Well, as expected, by most, except the doe heads in NATO, Russia is winning and it is only a matter of time before Ukraine falls, and I mean the whole of Ukraine, not just the Donbas area which is where this all started with their declaration of independence in 2014 after the coup, sponsored by the CIA in 2014 where the democratically elected ( but pro-Russia)  government was forced from power and replaced by a regime which ended up being led by a comedian.

Russia set out to protect the Donbas as it had been constantly attacked by Ukraine forces, mainly the Azov battalion who are followers of Stepan Bandera a rampant Nazi who died in 1959. Who sided with Nazi Germany during the Second World War.  

Russia has carried out a war of attrition from the start which limited their casualties at the same time as avoiding unnecessary casualties among the mainly Russian-speaking people of the Donbas.

Zelensky stated, in one of his Columbia marching powder dwams, last week that Ukraine had lost  30,000 soldiers in the conflict but the figures are more like 400,000 and they are resorting to taking people from the street and enlisting them as cannon fodder in the army.

Well, it will soon be over and as I said way back at the start of this, two years ago, the US will have fought Russia to the last Ukrainian. Time to start talking again without the inclusion of the US and the U.K. who have turned a bad situation into a disaster.

Ok, so that is enough gloom and doom for another week and time for a pint in Mennies. So, I wish all my friends the World over, a great weekend, and that includes my U.S. friends, whom I treasure dearly but commiserate with, on their choice of governments. At present, you seem to have the unfortunate choice of Joe Biden who should be in a care home instead of the White House, and Donald Trump who should be in a lunatic asylum.

Remember:- There are many injustices in this world and they make good traveling companions of the silent people

I have been in business for well over half a century but I learn something new every day. My politics are the middle of the road. I believe that the far-right and far-left are equally harmful. Jim Murphy ( at that time, leader of the Scottish Labour party) asked me if I called myself a socialist. I said, "no Jim, I am not a socialist, I am a capitalist, but a capitalist with a social conscience.
