It was predictable that if the West either supported or ignored an actual GENOCIDE taking place in plain view for over 2 years, then the powerful would be emboldened to effectively end the system of international law altogether The world now has the (pre-WW1) law of the jungle (and nuclear weapons and a climate crisis)

In August 1960, US President Eisenhower ordered the CIA to murder Patrice Lumumba, the first democratically-elected leader of the Congo Five months later, Lumumba was dead When former MI6 officer Daphne Park was asked if Britain had a role, she said: "We did. I organised it."

Here’s something Labour is able to take a position on.

@declassifiedUK @YvetteCooperMP Cooper has clearly been taking lessons on gaslighting from her zionist handlers.

Thread on @YvetteCooperMP Cooper in parliament yesterday trying to defend the indefensible in a debate on Venezuela. Incredibly, she backed the US overthrow of Maduro by saying he's wanted by the International Criminal Court, after 2 years backing Netanyahu during a genocide.

Disagree with Diane Abbott all you like, but on this, not only is she right, she's also much closer to Thatcher than Starmer, Farage, and Badenoch. Further evidence of just how far rightward the Overton window has been pushed in the UK.

FACT CHECK: Kemi Badenoch said "we are spending ALL our money on welfare". Welfare represents around 24% of Government expenditure. If you exclude the State Pension that drops to around 12%. Did Nick Robinson correct her? Don't be silly! #r4today @BBCr4today

@Matt_Pinner 19 for me.

10 for me!!….I feel confident nobody Has all 20!! How many for you?

On our application for Judicial Review in Scotland of the proscription of Palestine Action, the UK govt are trying Catch 22. They claim I have no standing in the case as I am not a member of PA. If I am a member of PA I will be arrested for terrorism... PA of course was never a membership organisation.

In the year of 2000 there were nine countries without a Rothschild owned or controlled Central Bank: 1. Afghanistan 2. Iraq 3. Sudan 4. Libya 5. Cuba 6. North Korea 7. Iran 8. Syria 9. Venezuela

@SaulStaniforth @MikeTappTweets So funny witnessing MPs & media types struggling with the fact that all their education/training taught them that western politicians aren't gangsters, racketeers & criminals & yet here they are supporting a genocide & kidnapping of a democratically elected president & his wife.

"Has the PM decided yet whether president Trump has beached international law?" @MikeTappTweets: "This is complex.. what we aren't here to do is give running commentary under pressure from social media.. to jump to conclusions"

What I most love about this Venezuela event is hearing western politicians and commentators struggling with the fact that all their training and education taught them that western politicians are not gangsters, racketeers and criminals.

Saddam wasn’t removed for 'freedom' -he started selling oil in Euros. Gaddafi wasn’t bombed for 'human rights' -he threatened the dollar with a gold-backed African currency. Maduro wasn’t targeted because of 'democracy'- Venezuela dared to sell oil in Yuan and step outside U.S. financial control. Every time someone messes with the petrodollar, they magically become a dictator overnight. Call it what it is, racketeering with flags. 'Liberation' is what they sell to the evening news.

@Steven_Swinford "the capture"? Are you having a laugh pet? The sTrumpet's thugs have *kidnapped* Maduro *&* his wife & attacked a sovereign state for their oil.

Exclusive: Britain will refrain from criticising the US over the capture of Maduro amid concerns about angering Donald Trump The UK will not make any assessment on whether the action is lawful. If the issue is pushed to a vote at the UN Security Council the UK will abstain The view is that it is not for the UK to make a judgement on a unilateral action by the US which the government knew nothing about in advance The government is concerned that doing so would risk jeopardising relations with the US at a critical time, particularly on the future of Ukraine A senior government source said: ‘This was a decision by the US. It is not for us make a judgment on whether it was lawful’ thetimes.com/article/b300db…

BBC journalists have been banned from describing the kidnapped Venezuelan leader as having been kidnapped. The BBC News Editor has sent this to BBC journalists.

@SaulStaniforth Yet this "advocate of intl law" refuses to recognise international law when it comes to the genocide being committed by the Israelis against the Palestinians or when those other barbaric genocide supporters in the US attack a sovereign state & kidnap their president & his wife.

Beth Rigby: "Has the US violated international law?" Keir Starmer: "Intl law is really important..." "You're not going to say whether they have or they havn't?" "I'm going to be clear that I believe in intl law, I've long been an advocate of intl law"

The pattern of postwar US interventions in Latin America was set by Britain in 1953 when it overthrew the democratically-elected govt in ‘British Guiana’. Ministers fabricated a communist threat when the issue was sugar/bauxite. Labour backed the Tories. declassifieduk.org/who-remembers-…

Venezuela has 300 billion barrels of oil, the world's largest reserve, Iraq 160 billion barrels, Gaza 1 trillion cubic feet of gas and Libya 50 billion barrels. It's not a coincidence that war is a common factor among these countries. Western politics has always been based on the plundering of peoples, starting from exploration in the New World, during which their riches were plundered and the original inhabitants exterminated, more than 100 million redskins killed and 20 million enslaved Africans. Subsequently, they colonized, exploited, bleed the African continent, which was the richest of the lands, and turned it into a symbol of famine, drought and backwardness, spreading their supremacy, looting gold mines, diamonds, oil etc... What we see today, are modern wars in Iraq, Libya, Gaza and Venezuela in modern style but with the same objective, to profit everywhere there is wealth. This is the naked and raw truth, there is no other. Copied

Quote of the day.

Listen to language Sky News uses when reporting on the US attack on Venezuela: “stunning,” “spectacular,” “lit up the night sky…” You’d never guess they’re describing a coup, illegal strikes, and a kidnapping. This is propaganda, not journalism.
