    If only you could show half the empathy for the tens of thousands of Brown people being murdered in an ongoing genocide that you’re complicit in, you racist, spineless piece of leftover gammon.

    @freediverx @woe2you @MontgomeryGator @aral I guess that it is pleasant to blame the Jews for the racism and imperialism of the US and UK establishments, but I am sorry to tell you that they were at it long before Israel existed and will be at long after that evil regime has collapsed.

    I will acknowledge that Netanyahu and the Israeli establishment are expert at leveraging their position in the US imperial project to further their own genocidal goals. It is a far cry from them using the imperial hegemon as a puppet

    @woe2you @freediverx @MontgomeryGator @aral the UK was an imperialist venture long before Trevor Chin was born and long before the Labour existed to be friends with anyone. It seems so obvious to me that Israel uses leverages its position in the Middle East to destroy the Palestinians. It is only able to do that because it serves the US's imperial agenda. They are the inheritors of Britain's empire.

    Until white Europeans and Americans, and some non-white ones too, face up to the fact that it is their ruling class who are driving oppression world wide, neither Palestine nor Britain nor anywhere will be free.

    I have no doubt that plenty of deeply committed anti fascists in the 30s genuinely thought that Rothchild was the problem. Hobson, in a slightly era, is a good example. They were wrong. They believed it because they couldn't face up to the task that was before them. It was easier to blame an outside malign influence. That was one of the reasons why they lost. We should not make the same mistake.

    @RobertoArchimboldi @freediverx @MontgomeryGator @aral If Starmer hadn't mounted a leadership challenge funded by Zionists like Chinn, Jeremy Corbyn would have still been in charge of the party at the last general election and would likely be the PM today.

    So yes, they're directly responsible for the UK's participation in Israel's latest fuckery.

    @woe2you Corbyn stepped down after he lost the election in 2019. He lost that election because he was foolish enough to let Starmer et al manoeuvre the party into opposing Brexit. It turned out, and who could have guessed, that the British establishment preferred colonialism and austerity to Corbyn's milquetoast anti-atlanticism and Keynesian economics.

    Sure Trevor Chin put up some money and is an odious man. Except at a level of detail that is so fine grained as to be mere gossip, Chin (and the Labour Friends of Israel) are irrelevant.

    Blaming a few individual Jews for US imperialism is like blaming Epstein for the sexual abuse of teenage girls. (Hint: it is a patriarchal culture which idealises the 15 year old girl as the epitome of sexual desirability)

    @woe2you sure, yes. Epstein is and was monster. He should have been punished. Netanyahu (and Starmer) should be sent to the middle of the Gobi desert. Chin should, at the very least, have no place in society. But it doesn't make them the problem.

    I don't know a single straightish man, including myself, who can truly say that they have never been way out of line towards a woman. It is true though that most of us manage to leave the kids alone. As Seun Kuti says, free Europe, free America and then Sudan and Congo and Palestine will free themselves.

    We need a revolutionary change. Until we stop fantasising that Europe and the US would be morally pure if it wasn't for the corrupting influence of a few individuals who just coincidentally happen to be Jews, we will never be free.

    I doubt that I have much more to add, so you are welcome to the last word.

    @RobertoArchimboldi I don't know who you're arguing with here, but it's not me. I never said anything about being morally pure, just that the Zionist lobby capturing the Labour party is why we're involved in this specific genocide.

    @aral This is the kind of fear you have to live with as a robber baron. It comes with some necessary protection (conveniently posted behind curtains so that it does not ruin the show on "normal" days) just to survive. Have some empathy!

    @aral Trying to murder murderers, (If that's what this was, rather than a staged false flag event), doesn't bring justice to the murderers victims or families.

    Watch how they spin this story, it's purpose is theatre.

    "3rd assassination attempt failed" by "will of God", etc. Expect more Trump as Jesus pics.

    Imagine someone had really just tried to kill you, would your first statement be "should I post this on Twitter?" that's verbatim what Trump said on the CCTV (Sunday Telegraph UK)

    @aral

    C'mon now

    If Britain must appease the fragile ego of Trump, then let's do it condemning violence and supporting a free press.

    I would expect the same message from a Tory PM if it were Biden or Obama

    @TCatInReality We’re all to happy to condemn violence and suport a free press. It just depends on which violence and the definition of freedom.

    @aral I'm friggin' tired of all this whining about political violence from people, who have spent tens if not hundreds of billions of dollars/euros/whatever to directly support much more horrible violence and mass murder for years. And in most cases it is against the will of the majority of people these a-holes are supposed to represent and work for.

    @aral Did #Starmer notice the women were left to fend for themselves, including #JDVance’s pregnant wife? The men were escorted by security while women crawled along the floor to escape. #Trump was trailed out, not even walking. Is Starmer aware Trump spent yesterday musing about five ways to kill people in custody - hanging, firing squad, electrocution, lethal injection & gassing? Did he notice the hypocrisy of supporting Israel’s genocide in #Lebanon & #Gaza?

    @grob @aral Would it really matter? Movements, ideologies and systems (MAGA) are bigger than one individual. When Trump falls, someone else will take his place.
    History offers plenty of examples.
