Couldn't quite articulate it. Good on Ukraine, 2 state solution in Gaza which I do not think is fair, but China policy he espoused was grating on my nerves.

Lastly, as wanton demonstration of the U.S.’ flaunting of any real ethical global strictures or standards, compromised (and probably kompromatized) Zionist puppet Mike Johnson has now openly declared the U.S. does not follow international law, because no international law supercedes American sovereignty:
Video
While that sounds great and is true on paper, it sets quite the obvious precedent for every other nation to follow. Why the hypocrisy and double standards on Russia and China, then? If international law should never take priority over national interests and sovereignty then why bleat about Russia’s putative “breaking of international law”, putting on theatrical virtue signaling performances of the enshrined ‘hallowedness’ of these ‘inviolable’ statutes? But everything is clear: it’s why the U.S. itself is strategically clever in never using the designation when it applies to itself or allies. For Russia and China it’s the hallowed ‘international law’, for the Atlanticist Empire and its putrid dependents and vassals, it’s “Rules Based Order”, which allows them to semantically skirt the inherent hypocrisy.

Gotta wonder what was said to Johnson to make him such a little Chihuahua Poodle after he once said that he wasn’t sending more weapons to Ukraine.

It appears that Schumer was right when he said that the intelligence agencies have 6 ways to Sunday to make people do their bidding or they would make their lives a living hell.

McFaul, what a great name for him, went from telling Blinken to allow Ukraine to hit targets in Russia with US weapons to skedaddling over to Taiwan to threaten China. A planned war can never be justified as self defense.

@snoopydawg

another Voronezh-M strategic early warning radar was attacked, this time in Orsk.

There was no damage this time - the drone fell some distance away from it - but the intent is clear.

Also, Orsk is 1,500 km away from Ukraine, and by straight line the drone would have to fly over Kazakhstan territory. So quite likely it was in fact launched from Kazakhstan. This was a large airplane-type drone. Just as the drone that hit the radar in Armavir may well have been launched from Georgia, Armenia, Azerbaijan, or even ships in the Black Sea.

Given that there was no immediate response to the attack in Armavir, what immediately followed was another attack. Who would have guessed...

Next on the menu presumably are the radars in Kaliningrad, Leningrad oblast, and perhaps even the one in Belarus. Given that drones (the source of which continues to not be established) have hit objects as far from Ukraine as Vyborg, there is no technical barrier to it.

I’m not looking forward to Russia’s response. But there is no way Ukraine is doing this without Biden’s permission. Or Blinken’s. 2 red lines crossed. Who’s going to blink first?

@humphrey

and many of them will be sent to the front lines. The military desperately needs more cannon fodder, but maybe he’s afraid of another coup.

I feel just as bad for Ukrainians who get dragged off to war just to die as I do for the Palestinians who can’t escape Israel’s blatant extermination. 500,000 Ukrainians dead and twice that many wounded. For what? Zelensky has sold their country out from under them. Do they know that?

The latest Israeli actions have reached a breaking point!

Except for the US and UK.

https://www.politico.eu/article/refugee-camp-strike-israel-rafah-palesti...

Excerpts from the article:

EU officials have condemned an Israeli air attack on refugee tents in Rafah that killed at least 45 Palestinians, including many children.

Sunday’s strikes — which took place in a camp where displaced Palestinians had been sheltering — come days after the U.N.’s top court ordered Israel to halt its operations in the city of Rafah in Gaza, citing the “immediate risk” to Palestinians. Over half of those killed were women, children and elderly people, local health officials said.

“There are no safe areas in Rafah for Palestinian civilians,” French President Emmanuel Macron said Monday. “These operations must stop … I call for full respect for international law and an immediate ceasefire.”

The EU’s chief diplomat, Josep Borrell, echoed calls for Israel to halt its operations in Rafah. “Israel continues the military action it has been asked to stop,” he said.

“Innocent men, women & children dismembered and burnt alive,” Humza Yousaf, Scotland’s former first minister, posted on X. “Bear witness to the images and ask yourself, are you on the right side of history?”

Italian Defense Minister Guido Crosetto told Sky TG24 that Israel’s warfare is “no longer justifiable,” noting that “with respect to Rafah, all States agreed that Israel had to stop.”

Germany, one of Israel’s staunchest supporters and a key exporter of arms to the country, has also changed its rhetoric, with Vice Chancellor Robert Habeck criticizing Israel for “its disproportionate approach in the Gaza Strip” for the first time on Saturday.

Israel’s actions were “incompatible with international law,” he said. “It is indeed the case that Israel has crossed the line there and it must not do that.”

Spanish Foreign Minister Jose Manuel Albares announced Monday that he will seek official support from the other 26 member states for the International Court of Justice’s ruling and take steps to ensure Israel respects its decisions.

“If Israel continues to pursue against that opinion of the court, we would try to take the right measures to enforce that decision,” Albares said at a news conference in Brussels with his Norwegian and Irish counterparts.

@humphrey

The Atlantic said that while it is sad than kids got killed there are times that it’s legal to kill kids.

Caitlin as usual finds the words about this heinous attack.

There was a time

Absolutely heartbreaking. Israel attacked the refugee camp right after the world court told them to cease fire on Rafah. Israel says that it was a tragic mistake while Gallant says that no one can tell Israel what to do. Meanwhile not only country has come to the Palestinian's defense. Where the F are UN troops? What are they for if not stopping this senseless slaughter?

They go where the US tells them to go, do what the US tells them to do, bomb whoever the US tells them to bomb, etc.

They have no independent agency.

In the 2022 edition, the Pentagon exonerated itself of harming noncombatants. “DoD has assessed that U.S. military operations in 2022 resulted in no civilian casualties,” reads the 12-page document.

They don't want anymore coverage of the ongoing atrocities as it is bad for their image.
