Chelsea guilty of 74 charges fined £10m and a transfer ban. Nobody said their trophies were tainted. Nobody called for relegation or their owners to sell the club. City are seriously loathed by rival fans that much they want City to disappear. Ruined them!

MBS’s duplicity: condemn Israel and Netanyahu before the Shura Council, then seek Israeli help against the Houthis behind closed doors.
Saudi-IDF meetings in Germany make the contradiction even starker, given the IDF’s role in Gaza.
Oh, the irony
MBS at the podium in front of the Shura: “We will respond decisively.”
Meanwile billions spent on weapons and on proxy armies who are outshone by fighters in flip-flops.
You can buy an army. You can’t buy the outcome.
Al-Burhan’s diplomacy, in meme form:
🎤 Publicly: “We won’t bow to Washington!”
🛂 Privately: “Would bowing help my visa application?”
The fist is for the cameras. The folded hands are for the consulate. 😂
MBS betrayed the trust with MBZ by turning against UAE-backed forces in Yemen.
Renewed Houthi pressure forces MBS to seek reconciliation with Abu Dhabi, leaving him begging for help from the ally he once turned against.
The Houthis are coming, and the Saudis are crying for help.
MBS diplomacy has gone full circle: USA → Turkey & Pakistan → Israel → Russia & China → back to the USA.
The self-proclaimed “mightiest army” in the Middle East is looking more like a paper tiger.
The walls are closing in on Abdel Fattah al-Burhan.
The U.S. has sanctioned him, and Washington has determined that members of the Sudanese Armed Forces committed war crimes.
Now he faces allegations of production and use of chemical weapons. Next stop the ICC.
The future for Abdel Fattah al-Burhan looks increasingly bleak.
His forces are responsible of war crimes, crimes against humanity and chemical-weapons use. Sudan’s victims deserve evidence, accountability and justice.
Abdel Fattah al-Burhan’s diplomatic isolation is deepening.
As Sudan’s war drags on, the dictator faces growing international pressure and scrutiny. Doors that once opened for Burhan are now closed
