You talk about the ”socialist position” as if ALL Socialists (like me) are some unified bloc of opinion on #Ukraine or anything else!

Let me be very clear to you!

I believe Ukraine has an absolute right to defend itself from Russian aggression!

I believe Palestinians have an absolute right to defend themselves from #US/ #UK/ #EU-enabled #Israeli settler-colonial genocidal policies over the past 75 years!

I believe that any country/ group/ tribe subjected to external attack by anyone else has a right to self defence!

What I object to is the utter hypocrisy of the position that somehow the US/ #NATO/ West have the ‘god-given’ right to be the aggressors (viz invasion of #Iraq/ #Afghanistan as the best examples) & then claim that #Putin is a #WarCriminal (I agree that he is) for attacking Ukraine but Blair/ Bush/ Cheyney/ Powell / Rice et al are NOT war criminals who should be standing trial in The Hague for their war crimes vs the millions they murdered/ tortured/ starved to death!

I’m also entitled to hold the view that US/ NATO involvement in #Ukraine is not (as western propaganda would like us to believe) a case of ‘benevolent Uncle Sam’ riding to the rescue of ‘poor Ukraine’ but more a case of Ukraine being used as a pretext by warmongers in the US ‘permanent war complex’ to wage a proxy war vs US imperialism’s old rival - Russia!

Who *really* benefits from this US ‘permanent war’ extension if not the likes of Boeing/ Raytheon/ BaE Systems/ Elbit & all the other death merchants?

Is that all clear to you now?

Another reason, if any more are necessary, why it’s crucial to #StopStarmer!

“The Return of Tony #Blair: The former British prime minister, who left Downing Street widely unpopular, is back in favor with his party, #Labour, which hopes his political skills can be an advantage as an election nears”

“Mr. Blair, now 70, is graying, thinner and his face a little more gaunt than when he left Downing Street in 2007. But he still effortlessly held the stage as he told the audience that Britain would be in safe hands if Mr. Starmer won the next election.

‘It was like the apostolic succession was being declared,’ said John #McTernan 🤮 a political strategist and onetime aide to Mr. Blair, who added that ‘the chemistry between the two guys made you think they talk a lot and they understand each other.’”

This is what that dead #WarCriminal Zhuravlyov had in his profile: https://bird.froth.zone/users/krides/statuses/1683730280853512195

And to think that @unesco somehow decided not only to call him "journalist", but to offer sympathy for his death is beyond pale.

There must be a special connection to Audrey #Azouley for her to mention him at all, as opposed to any of other dead #Russian propagandists. And that requires an investigation 🤔

After hospitals, kindergartens and pizzerias, the #terrorist state known as #Russia is now attack #grainstores and #churches as new threats from #Ukraine.
#Putin is a #warcriminal who needs to be trialed in #TheHague.

@dw #Girkin is not just a "nationalist figure". He's a #Russian #WarCriminal prosecuted and convicted by the court in #Netherlands for downing of #MH17 flight during the initial phase of #RussianUkrainianWar in 2014.

@gloooud #WarCriminal #Girkin is done: his wife announced on his Telegram channel that Girkin was arrested this morning on accusations of extremism.

So much for the hopes of getting him tried by the #ICC in Hague 😵

Putin‘s message to countries in need of Ukrainian grain in Africa and Asia: a man made famine…
The President of Russia is a #WarCriminal. He and the Russian Army are killing civilians day by day.
And the war crimes of the Russian Army have also horrid global consequences.

In the dispute over children from #Ukraine brought to #Russia, #SaudiArabia and #Turkey are seeking #repatriation, insider said. Reported by Reuters citing Financial Times.

Negotiations have been ongoing since at least April, said a person familiar with talks. The insider was skeptical that a solution could be found. According to him, Russian President Vladimir #Putin would thereby admit that he is a #WarCriminal.

Apparently this guy was begging someone to whack him. #orc #idiot #WarCriminal #SlavaUkraїni

So much winning!
