Orban should just fuck off
He is also insanely incompetent, and has caused Hungary to have some of the worst economies in EU!

He can’t just fuck off and he’s not incompetent, he’s a thief. Him and his buddies have stollen so much of Hungary’s money and resources that if they’re taken out of power there’s a considerable of chance of people having to go to jail.

That’s why we’re seeing all these kinda desperate acts. He’s trying to cling to power through any means.
It’s gonna be a rough month for Hungarians, but I hope they can pull it off.

He is absolutely desperate and its lovely to see. I hope we’ll eventually get to see him crashing out live on TV after our neighbors remove him and his filth from leadership.

If they did this to comply with the Islamists for economical purposes, then that’d be some clown show shit lmao.

If the US wanted to boost trade, economy, and stability of the environment and peace in the reigon, and actually help the people of Iran

USA/Israel don’t care about the Iranian people, that’s merely a propaganda stunt.

Furthermore, India, North Korea and even China trade and help Russia in its wars.

An open conflict with China is undesirable by both parties almost in equal measure. NK is already sanctioned up the ass, an open conflict would lead to a conflict with China. And I would like you to notice that India is being gradually weaned off the Russian teat, so to speak. Take a look at India’s trends in regards to defense-related imports. Its not a process that started recently, but almost a decade ago. They used to get +65% of their shit from Russia, but in the present that number dropped to 40% and they’ve been replaced by France and Israel. I have a hunch that these numbers will continue to lean geopolitically west-ward.
India buying of Russian oil has been deemed as an acceptable cost, as they value India’s resources more - and India’s greatest value is people, they have a lot of those. Cheap labour for western capital.
Hence the “mother of all deals” that was recently signed.

A genocidal aparthied and oppresive family dictatorships are considered US allies by your standards?

I’m sorry. Are you new to the whole USA business?

Oh its not about the nuclear stuff, I don’t think even the Trump admin believes that shit, even though they lie about it. I mean it from a military point of view and geopolitically.
Israel, USA and USA’s partners in the area (Middle East) stand to gain because the Islamic regime is the one financing opposing factions in the are.
And on a larger scale, USA and USA’s allies stand to win because the Islamic regime is the one actively aiding Russia in its war of conquest against an European country - for how many months/years now … 3 years? 4 years? I lost track. Anyway, for a loooong time they have sent thousands upon thousands of drones to bomb Ukraine.

Ok, but this says that the google search for “Epstein files” died on 18 of february, 10 days before USA/Israel started the attack. So the war is not about the Epstein files, which I agree with. It is about USA’s foreign policy.
It is in the interest of USA and Israel to severely damage the Islamic regime of Iran.
It is in the interest of western allies to help or be quiet about the attacks and not to raise too much of a ruckus about it.

One of the UK immigration officers - Chi Leung “Peter” Wai - is on trial at the Old Bailey. The other - former Royal Marine Matthew Trickett - was found dead in May 2024 after he had been arrested and bailed.

So China killed that guy?

Perfectly reasonable

Sometime in the future we should also include countries like Australia, South Korea, Canada, and others. Although, for the time being I hope the focus is to extend trade partnerships - especially finishing the FTA with Australia and a new one with ASEAN, that’d make me very happy.
This shouldn’t really be about some sort of euro-nationalism, but rather a pragmatic approach that allows us to best counter USA and China.

They’re too busy with their siestas, drinking wine and talking very loudly to read international media.

Straight up lying about what other governments agree to.
Like, I don’t even know what the purpose was here… what did they think, the spanish won’t be hearing about it because its in english?

Doubt it. Solidary with Spain doesn’t necessarily translate to agreeing with Spain, but defending Spain’s right to sovereignty.
Similar to how someone’s defense of others’ free speech doesn’t translate to agreement of whatever it is that they say.

A whole lot of slop when the article should’ve started from the get go with this point here

According to the Times, Israeli officials estimate that they have destroyed 50 percent of Iran’s missile launchers.

If that number is remotely true, then its an insane number.
Maybe Israel is lying, wouldn’t be the first time. Let’s halve it to 25%. Even with that number, removing 25% of Iran’s missile launch capabilities in a couple of days is fucking crazy.

And its that kind of thing that completely changes the military calculations. Sure, they’re a lot more expensive, but if you fuck up your enemy’s capability to launch missiles, they’re very much worth it.
And missile launchers cannot be built at the same fast rate, it goes without saying.

Its things like these that make me (extra) distrustful of western media. Do an actual genuine effort at estimating capabilities and stop it with the clickbaity slop, I’m tired.

But the 27-nation bloc isn’t capable of speaking with one voice, because the war in Ukraine (and Hungary and Slovakia’s lack of support) once again weighs in, alongside Brussels’ dependency on the US across a range of sectors, from energy and defence, to tech and finance.

The author seems to forget another crucial matter. Its not just that Europe relies heavily on American weapons/military both for its defence and for the war in Ukraine, it is also that the Islamic occupiers of Iran have directly and explicitly involved their military industrial complex in an European war on the side of the aggressor.

They have built an entire drone industry inside Russia and for years they have directly helped Russia in its imperialist quest of conquering Ukraine with the thousands upon thousands of drones that have struck hospitals, schools, residential areas, energy infrastructure, military infrastructure, etc.

The Islamic occupiers are directly invested and benefit directly from Russia’s war of aggression.

And that’s another matter that I argue weighs heavily on the European choice of silence.

Can we ban those usaian monsters from the whole union, please?
Its bad enough that many EU countries have already so many cars, we don’t need those micro-dick-energy metal death boxes to clog our streets too.

On the good side LNG tankers don’t do much damage to the environment when compared to oil tankers, also they cost a lot more - like 3-4 more than oil ones, on the bad side there is no bad side.

We need to forbid American social media at national or EU level
