Are you talking about the Polish guy who is president of the expansionist settler colonial state called Israel in the Middle East?
Netenyahu is not even his real name, it was changed to sound more Middle Eastern. His real family name is Mileikowsky, lots of the Zionists changed their names in order to attempt to sound like they are from the area they are colonising despite not having a drip of Levantine DNA.
Your graph is deceiving because it starts at 20 and not 0 on the y axis. It shows a very modest increase in wage, there are much better charts out there that plot wage growth Vs productivity growth. This makes the theft all the more obvious.
Despite Russia’s failure on the battlefield they are still an old imperial power holding vast quantities of land from the days of the Romanov’s. They still hold power over multiple cultures and ethnicities and brutally suppress secessionist movements.
Fortunately the Trump government seems to be putting the American empire into an unrecoverable tail spin as a result of his and his movements almost unparalleled ignorance. We might just get to see this multipolar world, I actually think the future will be bipolar with India and China as the competing powers. The west has had its time.
There are several empires, American one is just the most powerful. The way the Chinese and the Russians treat their people does not give me hope that their empires would act any differently. Britain and France have shown they are not to be trusted either based on their past atrocities.
Would mutipolarity make things better or worse? I don’t think that it matters, the fundamental nature of power and nation states make conflict and war inevitable. A multipolar world would likely make conflict more common. Can you name any wars of aggression that have honestly been done to improve the position of the country and its people and not just the elites? Vertical power structures are the problem, I would happily see the USA lose its position as hegemon but multipolarity won’t change much.
The logical conclusion every country should be looking towards now should be acquiring nukes. Maybe this is the path to peace.
Your comment implies that it is a binary choice. Lesser evil between the USA, Israel and Russia is a difficult shout, there is a cigarette paper between the three.
The three are also not the same, the USA is a far bigger threat to the world due to its military and financial might. Russia and Israel are not eating at the same table. It could probably be argued that they have the most twisted world views of the players here and I am very glad they are not in the conversation. China and the EU are the only other potentially global players. The EU are the USA’s yes men who have been greatly upset to recently be told this reality to their face. China look to be an alternative but when you peel back the veneer they are closer to the USA in their set up than most people would care to admit.
The lesser evil one is a difficult argument to make, do you believe if either Israel or Russia occupied the USA’s position as global hegemon that they would be better or worse?
This is not some comic book battle between good and evil, it is perfectly possible for both USA, Israel and Russia to be evil, they are all expansionist imperial entities currently engaging in imperial land grabs. I would say they are all evil.
Ukraine and Iran were just minding their own business when the imperialists attacked. USA, Russia and Israel are all on the same shitty side of the coin. The rest of the world hates the lot of them.
I’m ashamed that our cowardly EU leaders have again folded behind the US and Israel in another unjust war.

Some things never change.
Securing a nation state for Jewish people at the expense of the Palestinians who have been living in the area for millennia.
This Jewish nation state was secured by colonial settler Jews not native to the region migrating to the region and taking land for themselves around a century ago after the collapse of the Ottoman empire. They are still to this day expanding their state by stealing the Palestinian land.
The hatred of Israel by its neighbors is not for no reason and it is not because they are Jews. The Irish were also not fans of the British colonising them, neither were the native people of the Americas when their land was stolen by European settlers. Israel is just another case of European settlers stealing land and causing trouble where they don’t belong.
Are we believing in polls again after they have been consistently wrong for the last decade? Almost as stupid as believing polls a year and a half out from a general election means something, like reading tea leaves at this stage. The incumbent is never popular at this point, extreme views at this point tend to temper at the polling booth, especially since the Spanish economy is doing well.
The Spanish public are still massively anti Israel due to all of their genocide and everything.
If these are “Gods chosen people” their god must be a sick cunt.
You have been called out several times for your lies about this picture, do you have anything to say to explain your position? You are accusing the Iranian regime for doctoring photos and then blatantly misrepresenting photos from an article without the context from the article? Hasbara is really scraping the bottom of the barrel these days…
This soldier died in Saudi Arabia. Unlike the gulf war, Iran can strike back with greater accuracy than they were given credit for. This is nothing like the gulf war in terms of the capabilities of the opponent. The USA will also not be able to win this war with air strikes alone, boots on the ground will be needed.
The war criminals will keep committing war crimes as long as they are allowed to without punishment. Russia was kicked out of international sporting events and the Eurovision for less crimes against humanity than Russia.
Russia are obviously also scumbags but we should at least be evenhanded in our condemnation of Israel lest we look like the hypocrites our governments clearly are.
No thanks, I’ll stick to my 1000 monkeys writing on 1000 typewriters. “It was the best of times, it was the blurst of times.” You stupid monkey!
Used to be cool…you might want to look a little bit further into IBMs past, specifically what they were doing during WW2…
We prepared for that, we lined up a type of gorilla that thrives on snake meat
I found this review paper interesting and I don’t doubt that nicotine can have therapeutic effects but the funding source worried me.

No worries, it’s hard to keep track of who America has screwed over and when.
It was the CIA who put the “Shah” into power in the 1953 coup. Before this Iran had a democratically elected prime minister who nationalised the country’s oil, his name was Mohammad Mosaddegh. The USA have never been big fans of middle Eastern countries controlling their own oil.
Israelis have been actively slaughtering innocent women and children in Palestine for years now with the public cheering on, they have started an unprovoked war with Iran by bombing a school killing 150 little girls. This is just a tiny sample of Israel’s recent crimes. Is it any wonder the world has little sympathy for them? About the same amount that we had for the Nazis after all of their war crimes. Get fucked Israel, go eat several bags of dicks.
