War has resumed in Ethiopia and Christians are being slaughtered. Since 2020, over half a million Ethiopians are killed and two million are refugees. Why are people focused on Gaza. Is it a genocide in Ethiopia or it only applies to the Jewish people?

Grok: "Brendan Kavanagh, a YouTube boogie-woogie pianist known as Dr K, posted police bodycam footage from his April 1, 2025 arrest at home by six Bedfordshire officers along with his wife, both handcuffed in front of their children.
The arrest stemmed from a harassment complaint by a laicized deacon with prior child abuse allegations abroad, after the Kavanaghs emailed other Catholic parents raising safeguarding concerns about him celebrating Mass at their private chapel.
Police seized electronics worth £12,000; after two months of investigation, no offences were found, charges were dropped without apology, and the couple is now pursuing legal action against the force over the incident's handling."

I sort of feel that using a sledgehammer to break the back of a British policewoman and destroying military equipment meant for Ukraine isn't exactly noble political advocacy, but that's just me ...

This footage is from the very beginning of Russia’s full-scale invasion in 2022. Look at that little Ukrainian boy, walking towards the border in tears, surrounded by families fleeing a Russian invasion. Now consider the extraordinary moral bankruptcy of Trump, Rubio, Hegseth and Musk, whose message to Ukraine increasingly amounts to: “Fuck Ukraine. Russia gets our sympathy.”

Meanwhile, Steve Witkoff apparently sees Putin as some sort of humanitarian. Quite remarkable. Most people can distinguish a humanitarian from a man whose army bombs hospitals and forces children to flee their homes. Apparently, this requires a level of intellectual sophistication beyond certain members of the American establishment.

It hardly takes a magnificent imagination to work out which side these gentlemen might have found more accommodating in 1939.

“Never again” was supposed to mean something. It wasn’t a decorative slogan to be dusted off once a year while making excuses for the next dictator.

And to those who admire Russia as some glorious defender of Western civilisation, perhaps try learning something about the country. Russia has millions of Muslim citizens. It is hardly the anti-Muslim paradise some of its Western admirers imagine. Nor does Putin’s dictatorship represent the democratic freedoms they claim to cherish.

But then, understanding history, geography or basic human decency does rather spoil the pleasure of having absolutely no idea what you’re talking about.

That little boy understood who the aggressor was. Remarkable how many supposedly powerful adults still struggle with it.

One interesting point that Coates never addresses is what about all the Arab/Muslim conquests of the Middle East, are they not far more racist and evil than his deeply false claims about "Zionism"?
In fact, Arab/Muslim conquests included brutal slavery spanning over 1,300 years?! Most Arab countries today are deeply racist towards Africans and non-Muslims, is he going to say something about that fact?
