Our only vital interest is getting the SOH open so oil can flow. This is what we need to focus on, not a formal deal or more bombing.
We would have more leverage if we take away Iran’s ability to strike us—we do this by getting our troops / bases out of the region.
We can then condition sanctions relief on opening the SOH. This incentivizes Iran to open the SOH. Also w/out us in the region Iran loses the justification for their aggression.
If there was a military solution to this problem we would have executed it before the ceasefire or MOU was ever proposed. We got into both because the military options didn’t work.
Resuming our bombing campaign in an effort to get a grand deal is a recipe for escalation or the same GWOT style self licking ice cream cone that got us into quagmires in the Middle East for decades.
Andy Burnham is a Keir Starmer with more posh and expensive designer glasses, and more urbane and sophisticated designer Zionism.
Notice that in 3 minutes of vernal weaseling and pretend facial innocence, he does not say anything concrete about Israel and its actions. He is only direct and concrete when condemning Khamas and antisemitism - and, to make sure all who watch understand the danger of challenging these two religious Western truths (byt the way: the only religious truths held and imposed in the West), he leaves them opaque and menacing: not explaining neither why he condemns Khamas or October 7, and what 'antisemitism' means, or why just one group of humans be exempt from collective responsibility to action it collectively performs.
He doesn't explain because no one can explain these two things, and therefore they must be violently enforced, and they have to be violently enforced only because they make no sense, and can't be explained.

Language itself has long died in the West, and nothing means anything anymore. It is all constant verbal diarrhea meant to sound like humans communicating, when in fact it is not a conversation, but the sound produced by government data centers. 'The initial response to the treatment of Gaza' means absolutely nothing. Again, to tell us he means nothing by this, he doesn't go into any detail that will force him into any conclusion.

The same toxic waste repackaged for the luxury and comfort of the wider base of the Epstein class - the people who may or may not not be pedophiles themselves, but who are perfectly comfortable with a system in which every decision maker is a deranged avid pedophile and devout supporter of the Nazis of our time.
The ones who go to the parties but don't religiously partake in the child-sacrifice ritual, because they conveniently know precisely where not to look, or go.

The West is dead. Its political structures and culture establishments, judicial systems, media landscape - they are all run by armies of ghosts. There is no meaning and no purpose to anything except amassing more death and more money, and children's suffering.
Even people on the radical fringes do not get how much of s desolate wasteland Western societies have become (alongside societies influenced and controlled by them). The spell of fake reality is extremely powerful. But the real picture underneath is that of total grey destruction; a hellscape populated by ghosts and lost souls trapped in a dimension of endless misery.
The only hope left is the kind of destruction that will equalize what we feel and know to be true and the kingdom of fake we are forced to inhabit.
but it is all dead. Burnham is just another demon face from hell
"Ukraine has effectively been wrecked.
It is likely to lose more land before the fighting stops.
Its economy is in tatters with no prospect of recovery in the foreseeable future."
Political scientist John Mearsheimer is killing it in the EU Parliament.
This is not about authorization, but about everything, from armaments to economic coverage. Although Israel has a cutting-edge military industry and its production has been growing, it still falls far short of the numbers needed for a conflict with Iran.
Netanyahu is trying to secure reignition of the front alongside the GCC countries, but I think that’s unlikely, just as it’s quite unlikely that these countries have attacked the Iran in recent days.
Maryam-e Moghaddas Station on the Tehran Metro is a tribute to Iran's Christian community

See how the head of the biggest, most powerful and most important country in the world welcomes the leader of a tiny African nation (genocided by the Germans over a century ago).
Humanity is beautiful. Western colonialism is malignant cancer. And this is just fantastic
