It's human instinct to dismiss what we disagree with. But Trump, Bannon, Musk, Farage benefit from being underestimated. "It gives credence to the notion their radical politics is necessary. Left unchecked, 'outlandish' possibilities can become concrete realities" Take it seriously. My thoughts 👇

When the Justice minister who once overlooked the execution of women in public squares, assumes 90% of Syrians want Sharia law, its alarming. Syrian Muslim communities do not resemble this man and his extremist ideology must have no place in Syria's justice system. Its really that simple.

It's naive to expect a billionaire not to use a paper he owns to further his own ends. Media and government capture are reasons why billionaires should be abolished by heart taxation and asset confiscation.

@AJEnglish: Amnesty International says Israel’s detention of Kamal Adwan Hospital director Dr Hussam Abu Safia is emblematic of the “genocidal intent” in Israel’s broader attempts to “annihilate” Gaza’s healthcare sector. 🔴 LIVE updates: https://t.co/ng9Cds7ZkB

Not particularly surprising to see #bojo #truss #farage cavorting with the fascists - they have shown who they are.

Our leaders must demand the immediate and safe release of Dr Hussam Abu Safiya and all detained Gaza health workers. Health workers are not a target, and impunity for Israel's destruction of Palestinian healthcare must end. Please share.

Russia's chief military officer, Valery Gerasimov, has declared arms control a relic of the past, citing a lack of trust between Moscow and the West. This statement marks a significant shift in Russia's stance on nuclear arms control. #ArmsControl #Russia #Gerasimov

As ever with @BBCNews the focus of this article is about Israel not why Ireland might be critical of Israel, for the warcrimes and genocide it is perpetrating against Palestinians. The real question should be - why the UK has anti-Palestinian policies www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

No meetings, no accountability, no oversight. The National Conventional Arms Control Committee (NCACC) hasn’t functioned for over 5 months, while South African arms exports continue unchecked. Is this incompetence or neglect?

Worried what will happen to #Syria's chemical weapons? Me, too. Important to remember @OPCW and other int'l orgs have experience with "Non-Proliferation in Areas of Limited Statehood". Good opportunity to re-up an older @SWPBerlin research paper on lessons learned ten years ago: is.gd/3S7oZX

When the EU supports Israel, turning a deaf ear to pleas from member States even to suspend trade, why are we "boosting" its ability to wage war?

The Conservatives brought back diseases of poverty unseen in generations. Labour policies are continuing this trend. Wellbeing per capital, not growth for growth's saje, must be the measure of success.

"There are an estimated 2.9m people in England with malnutrition. Hospital admissions resulting in nutrition-related diagnoses in England increased by more than 39% over the past decade. Malnourished children are being treated for scurvy, bow legs, rickets and heart murmurs."

I get the political calculation here. I'm just gonna point out that the predominance of research into European parties' efforts to outflank the far right like this has found that they merely legitimised the far right's political framing and led voters to opt for the "full fat" version.

But ceasefires are never good enough. They are an opportunity, not an endgame. If we do not resolve the real issues war will resume at full scale again.
