Iranian General killed by US Drone.

Typical viewpoint of someone who hates the West unreservedly, without objectivity.

Britain has made a whole host of mistakes in the Middle East but haven’t participated in the purposeful slaughter of innocent people, forming militias that ignore the Geneva Convention.

Britain’s main party doesn’t threaten to wipe another sovereign country off the face of the planet and have mushroom clouds as it’s emblem.

Britain doesn’t participate in religious extremism.

Western intervention has been a mess and Britain has played a part in making the situation worse, don’t for a second claim that any British General is on a par with this murdering animal.

It is possible to criticise Britain in the Middle East and not defend the Iranian leadership, who are brutal tyrants that engage in terrorising the general population in more than one country, including backing internationally recognised terrorist groups.

The comparison is absurd but not surprising, given the fact these views ended up leading the Opposition of this country.

It is ridiculous really, it's almost as though Bin Laden, Al-Baghdadi, Hussein and the others were just lovely fellas.

We can't excuse the interventionism and ill consequences of that but let's not pretend that those places were prosperous countries run by teddy bears until we got involved.

The Middle East is just a hotbed of factions and we are on one faction of allies and others like Iran are on another. Basically, you can't win.
 
Isn’t it funny that the hard left, accused of antisemitism, wish to back a country’s leadership who are hell bent on “wiping Israel off the map”?

Transparency indeed.
If the UN decided to create a Gypsy homeland in Wales and millions of Welsh refugees moved to England this would no doubt cause severe resentment and disruption in the area. Throw oil into the mix and Russia, the US, China you'd have a heady brew.
 
You seem to have confused being a useful figurehead for intelligence.

It's pretty much impossible to make an argument that Trump is intelligent. First and foremost just listen to him, he's incoherent, has the vocabulary of a 9 year old and cannot express any sort of complex thought.

Then there's the fact he's used legal coercion to suppress his school records because he's so ashamed of them, or that at the university his dad paid through the teeth for him to get into, his professor would regularly lament that he was the dumbest student he'd ever had the misfortune to teach.

We know he's lost his 9 figure inheritance, we know he's bankruptedalmost every business he's tried, we know he lost more money than any other American between 1984 and 1995, and we know that he's been living off 10 figure loans from Deutsche Bank guaranteed by Russian Billionaires who've most likely been using him and his name to launder money for 15 years.

The idea that he's intelligent because he got elected holds about as much weight as him being a genius businessman and self-made billionaire because that's what The Apprentice made him out to be. The program that used to film around things like his helicopter getting repossessed or buildings they were supposed to film in getting shut down because he couldn't pay his bills.

His entire life he's been a bullshitter, and one day TV executives realised that they could sell the bullshit to TV audiences. Then political advisers realised that the single most important factor in a US election is name recognition and he had tons of it, so they picked him up and sold him. Twice they failed, because democratic voters didn't take him seriously, so they had him swap to being a far right republican and found that their voter base was far more receptive of racist populism.

He's a puppet, not a genius.

see you’ve just done what you accuse him of, you’ve started of saying he’s incoherent with the vocabulary of a 9 year old, that’s a bigger load of shit than anything I’ve ever heard Trump say
Don’t like the man one bit but it just gets silly, given money or not, gone bankrupt or not, the man has gotten what he wants most of his life and lived in a way most of us could only dream of, his wives and children have never wanted for anything so to be bankrupt and still have the ability to provide that life for them is pretty impressive IMO
Then he runs for president and everyone laughs ( including me ) and now he’s one of the most powerful men in the world. He may not talk like Sam Harris or Christopher Hitchens but he’s sure got street smarts.


People are to scared to say anything positive about Trump as they are attacked with Venom if they dare say so, it’s like someone suggesting a man is still a man even if he pretends to be a woman and I feel it’s cos the world has moved to this left wing snowflake bollocks that people voted for Trump in the first place
 
Add Britain to what appears to be quite a list.

Look we are all on a side here but the self loathing from some of us, the USA and the west in general is as baffling as it is ridiculous.

For me its a hatred of Israel and thus anyone who supports them.

Those you mention would have all indeed been lovely lovely geezers were it not for the dreadful infidels from the west, were it not for the habitual rape and plundering of the evil British and American imperialist crusaders the whole of the middle east and Africa would now be like the garden of eden, a gigantic woodstock if you like, saturated with peace and love.

Some people are just clueless! Dont you know anything?

By any objective measure, Trump has led a remarkable life.
