“President Trump suggested Wednesday that Iran’s attacks on Kuwait and Bahrain were a direct response to prior U.S. military action, stopping short of condemning them and indicating the ceasefire remains in effect.”

In truth it was Germany's 100% support for Israel, its aggression in the Ukraine war and its own huge rearmament.
The world does not like German neo-militarism. Who knew?

Anti-black racism and Islamophobia are not incidental features of British society. They are foundational to it.

The hierarchy of racism in Britain is not an oversight. It expresses the relationship between racism and the economic structures from which it arose.

Peole are denying the reality of racism in policing, just as the Met has done ever since the Macpherson report.
Now there is even the outlandish claim that two tier policing discriminates against white people - turning reality upside down.

Israel Sells More Weapons to Arab Allies Than to U.S.

New figures from Israel’s Defense Ministry show military exports hit a record $19.2 billion in 2025.

But the most revealing detail is where the weapons are going.

Exports to countries tied to the Abraham Accords reportedly increased fivefold in just two years, while Europe’s share of Israeli weapons purchases dropped sharply.

As Gaza burns and Lebanon remains under bombardment, parts of Europe are slowly becoming politically radioactive terrain for Israeli defense companies.

Meanwhile, Gulf normalization is evolving into something much deeper than diplomacy: an expanding security and surveillance architecture built around war technology, AI, border systems, drones, cyber capabilities, and regional military integration.

The Abraham Accords were always about infiltrating markets, intelligence coordination, and the normalization of a regional order increasingly fused through weapons, data, and security infrastructure.

Occupation comes in many forms.

[UNISON - UK's largest union @unisontheunion]

Local government unions have rejected the 2026 pay offer and are demanding meaningful pay negotiations in a letter to employers signed by all three unions - UNISON, Unite and GMB.

UNISON are balloting members for strike action from 9 July.

This is most striking figure from Millburn Review. They estimate that around half of the 18-24 population who are not in education, employment or training (NEET) are not claiming any benefits. This limits how effective reforms to the benefit system can be in cutting NEET rates.

[Socialist Economic Bulletin @SocEconB]

Two-thirds of all NEETs either do not claim any benefits at all or receive benefits but have no prospect of work because they have a severe diability.
Cutting benefits is simply punitive without addressing issues such as job creation or training.

This is very good. It should be widely read and shared.

And Germany lost its habitual seat among non-permanent members of the UN Security Council, while the US House passed the war powers resolution.
Maybe only small straws, but they clearly show the direction of the wind.

It is crucial to understand that this is a major reason for the West’s increasing belligerence toward China over the past decade. China’s development is challenging Western monopolies. This imposes a direct squeeze on Western profits but it also undermines a core tenet of imperialism.

The West’s monopoly power allows them to impose dependency on the global South. The South is forced to export large quantities of raw materials and intermediate goods in order to pay for imports at monopoly prices.

This produces large net flows from the global South, propping up the West’s growth and profits. If the West’s monopoly power declines, this flow gets cut off. They are desperate to prevent this from happening, to the point of fantasising about going to war with China to destroy China’s industrial base.

The West’s whole model for capital accumulation depends on Southern dependency. As that arrangement becomes increasingly unstable, the Western ruling class will become increasingly violent.

Black people are almost 9 times likely to be stopped and searched, 5 times more likely to have force used against them. Much more likely to be charged and to be refused bail - National Police Chiefs' Council.
Real discrimination. Real two tiers.

BREAKING: The House just passed a resolution to end the war on Iran by a vote of 215-208.

Just 3 months into the war, this is the earliest that a chamber of Congress has ever voted to reject an active conflict in U.S. history.
