@DalrympleWill The catastrophe is a war that never should have happened. Ukraine would still have all its territory if US/UK hadn’t (via Boris Johnson) pressured Zelenskyy to not sign the agreement Ukraine had reached with Russia. That Ukraine could defeat Russia was simply delusional.

I’m actually grateful to Trump. His open lawlessness, his obvious ignorance, his unapologetic bigotry, his public bullying, and his trademark vulgarity, have all pulled back the curtain on the reality of the US empire, and the dangers it poses to people across the US and around the world. Even those who did not want to see this under previous administrations are now forced to admit reality. Trump’s ruthlessness is hastening the sinking of the empire. Hopefully, this will compel countries in Europe, the Mideast, and the South to finally begin to build escape routes from US hegemony, lest they go down with the ship.
NEW: 🇩🇪🇺🇲 The German Chancellor Olaf Scholz calls on EU countries to stand together against the US attempt to take Greenland from Denmark:
"Borders must not be moved by force. This principle applies to every country, whether in the East or the West. In talks with our European partners, there is an uneasiness regarding recent statements from the US. It is clear: We must stand together."
Interestingly, the Scholz government fully supports Israel in moving its borders to Palestine, Lebanon and Syria.

BREAKING: After Carrefour’s closure in Jordan due to sustained BDS pressure, Majid Al Futtaim Group, the partner of the French Group Carrefour in most of the Arab region, announces “Carrefour will cease operations in Oman” as of January 7, 2025.
Israel is upset that Egypt is taking steps ON ITS OWN LAND to protect itself in case of an invasion through the Sinai. Literally their complaint is that the steps they're taking could present obstacles to an Israeli invasion.
So, here are the first rumblings of incitement against Egypt. Soon, Egypt will only be referred to as "the promised land." You'll hear about how desolate it is, just waiting for zionists to make bloom. They'll call it a "den of terrorists" or "uninhabited." I'm sure "antisemitism" will fit somewhere in that narrative.
I said to Ukrainians Several Years Ago, Don't Let the U.S. Use You.
You'll End Up Destroyed.
And I say the same to my many friends in Taiwan.
Don't let the U.S. use you.
NOW Neocons Are READY: Make Taiwan The Ukraine Of Asia
Jeffrey Sachs Should be a Nobel Prize Winner
My old man is the shit. Like many little boys, he was my hero growing up. But, as I got older, he stayed my hero.
He’s spent his life making art for the struggle. He inspired not just Banksy but a whole generation of ‘street artists’.
His show at Whitechapel is on til 19 Jan.
Palestinian healthcare workers are under attack. Use @PSCupdates action to demand the British government ends its complicity in genocide! https://t.co/8ZUiaPRXp9
Prof. Jeffrey Sachs: Russia did not cut off gas to Europe.
The U.S. cut off gas to Europe through its agent, Ukraine.
So Ukraine stopped the gas shipments.
This will hurt Ukraine.
This will hurt Europe.
No, it's it's but it just shows the falsity that we live with our governments lying every single minute.
