Trump in deep pooh with this war, fighting the Zionists racist and ethnic cleansing, genocidal policies to create the garden of eden God supposedly promised them.

These Zionists are very dangerous with their god delusion. They have now turned on innocent civilian palestinians in the West Bank. The rest of the World stays quiet. IDF soldiers smashing up Christ symbols with sledge hammers too. Apparently, that soldier will be jailed. Whilst IDF get a pat on the back for killing innocent civilians and journalists in Lebanon. World's gone upside down on morality.

At the same time, US weapons depleted, mega deficit to budget, no objectives on the Iran war and no exit strategy. Rest of the World suffering high inflation with the US not impacted just yet and enjoying her self the high price of oil supplying the rest of the World.

All these attrocities will come home to roost and the US and Israel will pay a price sooner or later. Limits of arrogance and abuse of power well over-reached.

I find it comical that the press here in the UK still hounding Starmer for staying out of the war by asking for his recognition about Mandelson and Epstain Israelli honey-trap shit to blackmail powerful figures. The Jewish lobby are losing their grip. I think the pubic are catching up to how these big vested interests can buy politicians and senators.

Apparently, Trump asked the Iranian football team to be removed from the World Cup and offered position to Italy. https://www.euronews.com/2026/04/23...-fifa-to-replace-iran-with-italy-at-world-cup

Whilst on the other hand some countries boycotting the Eurovision because Israel, which isn't even in Europe is included in the competition.

How low can Israel and US sink? Europe stays silent.

Worst is yet to come I guess. The future looks brown.
