A dominant theme of Hitler's speeches in the late 1930s is that Germany was surrounded by threats. These threats were imaginary: it was Nazi Germany that threatened other nations. But they were used to justify pre-emptive attacks. Trump is following this script.

The weirdest thing about Americans is how many of them think their laws apply to every person in the world.
But they're certain other countries' laws don't apply to them.

I'm writing about the Palestine Action hunger strikers at the moment, any of whom could die at any moment, and the astonishing media and government silence surrounding them. The Establishment seems to have become even crueller than when Thatcher was PM.

The world is rightly outraged by the illegality of Trump’s invasion of Venezuela.
But an invasion motivated by converting the world’s largest oil reserves into CO₂ emissions is not just a crime against international law - it’s an unconscionable and sadistic assault against our entire planet.

A disturbing piece. Jewish students who attended private Jewish schools in Canada and the USA talk about the pro-Zionist pro-Israel indoctrination that is integral to the schools. I wonder if this occurs at private Jewish schools in Australia too. 🤔 #education www.readthemaple.com/youre-litera...
