I’ll say it loud and clear: I won’t be satisfied until the Hout’his get our gas prices up to $10 a gallon!

Looking forward to Iran shutting the Straits of Hormuz as well.

If this makes me a “ terrorist supporter”, I’ll wear that badge with pride!

The UK was in 2022 debating whether to make Houthi a terrorist group. I'm sure it will make them one now.

Hamas was only declared to be one fully in 2021 by the UK and EU at the same time. Nothing to see here, of course.

I wonder if I can gather enough support from the readers of this column to declare the US a terrorist group

It seems the UK hasn't made it one yet so you are ok in the UK. Here's their list: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/proscribed-terror-groups-or-organisations--2/proscribed-terrorist-groups-or-organisations-accessible-version

Of course - he is the real reason they want to do it: https://www.theguardian.com/world/2022/apr/01/yemen-uk-houthi-rebels-aid-agencies-letter

In olden days this would be called a siege.

When talking about siege, the name Germany comes to mind.

Stalingrad, WWII, and on.

It should also not surprise us that lined up in Israel’s corner at the ICJ in The Hague are most of the Western US sycophants – led by the nose of course by the "exceptional" USA and now, tagging along with arrogant anti-Palestine statements and giving off a distinct smell like their media friend, Joseph Goebbels. (1939)...is Germany. This is the same country that showed Israel how to create a genocidal environment called the Holocaust on which they. have dined out for 78 years ......to their advantage. And how. Just look at the US Senate, the Congress, the Universities, the Pubic Service, Where does it end?

Berlin asked last Friday to be considered a third party in Israel’s defence at The Hague. That's DEFENCE, in case you missed it.

Well, with their experience in WWII, no one would know more about it than Germany. I would have enjoyed being at the ICJ for this one and then, as a courtesy, asked them a few questions in return. They have taught Israel all they know but Israel has well and truly exceeded them in no uncertain manner.

It is the nature of the beast.

It is interesting you said this. Germany's PR around remorse for the Holocaust- like that of the 'American dream' - has been really good. Like the latter, it's complete BS, but it really manipulated us all very well. I wrote a note on it:

"Germany supporting Israel at the ICJ is not surprising in any way. It is another European and Western colonial power with the same Imperialistic mindset that led to it to commit the Holocaust. It would thus wholeheartedly and without reservation support its relabelling as Zionism.

Of course, Germany - that bastion of European justice - has absolutely done away with any of its Nazi profiteering and would never dream of continuing to have such corporations that did things like create the gas to kill the Jews or use forced labour from concentration camps. (BASF, Porsche, Mercedes-Benz, and BMW, anyone? Anyone?)

And these Nazi-era companies did not continue their imperialistic brutality in any way anywhere else after WWII at all. Argentina, who?

As someone said to me: “It’s a bit like asking Jimmy Savile to testify that Jeffrey Epstein wasn’t a paedophile.”"
