Political Thread in memory of David Reid. (R.I.P.)

The Islamist loons have declared war on Syria now. FFS, haven't the poor bloody Syrians suffered enough, without these Islamist arseholes showering missiles on them.

It's called "WAR" mon ami, should they send them boxes of chocolates?

What's wrong with Uganda ? It's not because they're black is it ? It's not just Jews, you've had trouble with blacks on here before.

Because my month in the sun is nearing its end I've been busy saying "hasta luego" to friends over here, I'm therefore a bit late in saying this post confuses me a tad because I thought the Ugandans killed Benny the Pole's brother if I recall correctly? I might be wrong but that's not normal.

What I am wondering mon ami, is why the Islamist Loons have declared war on Syria. Haven't they got enough enemies without picking up another one ? Just what has Syria done to provoke the Loons into a further bout of indiscriminate rocket lobbing.

I have mentioned before sinkov my across the road neighbour is an Iranian whose family all live in and around Tehran. He's a thoroughly decent bloke and he emailed me last night to say a million Iranians are geared up militarily to meet Trump's task force.

Images on Spanish TV are showing millions of Americans right across the US protesting on "No Kings Day" and a "video of Israeli jets bombing Syria’s Defence Ministry in 2025 has been falsely described online as Iran hitting Israel in retaliation *for U.S. and Israeli airstrikes on Saturday."

Trump is costing the US taxpayer a billion dollars a day plus for a war with no purpose or end game and the Jews are up to their usual $hitstirring antics.

US bases in the Gulf States are fair game for a sovereign nation that must defend itself.

TACO cannot win this conflict either at home or away.

Sounds a lot like Burnley's Parker to me.

[sinkov]

You sound a lot like Python's Black Knight to me, except he was in a better state than Iran.

[sinkov]

You still haven't told me just why the Islamist Loons in Iran have declared war on Syria. After all, declaring war on your neighbours is not something states do every day, they must have a reason. I haven't a clue what it is, do you ?

[The Bedlington Terrier]

One thing I have really noticed mon ami during this last month is how news media varies country to country and continent to continent.

I cannot find a single reference to Iran declaring "war" on Syria here in Spain, but as usual the Guardian is as reliable as ever...

Trump bombs 12000 miles away Iran for no discernible reason, but you deflect that monstrous act of warmongering with why "Islamist Loons in Iran have declared war on Syria." You are as mad as the evil orange manbaby sinkov.

The Pfhuck Trump movement continues unabated...

"More than 3,000 No Kings protest events in the United States were bolstered by activists across the world opposing Donald Trump.

Rallies against the president were formed across the US, but also in Germany, Italy, and Australia. Protestors in Paris, France, were spotted holding up "Dump Trump" signs while those in the streets of Madrid, Spain, rallied around a sign reading, "Power to the people." A previous No Kings movement occurred on June 14, 2025, the same day as Trump's birthday. Further protests followed in October, and a third set of rallies across the world took place today (March 28)."

BREAKING NEWS: Trump is HUMILIATED as MASSIVE “No Kings” protests sweep America, with millions taking to the streets to reject his authoritarian agenda!
From coast to coast, Americans are rising up today in the “No Kings” protests in one of the largest coordinated days of political action in U.S. history.
More than 3,200 events are in progress in cities and small towns across all 50 states, as Americans collectively oppose Trump’s war in Iran, mass deportations, attacks on democracy, and authoritarian overreach.
People of all ages and races are packed in streets with handmade signs and some in original costumes, chanting slogans as passing cars beep their horns in solidarity. In Washington DC, an estimated 200,000 people are gathered near the Capitol.
In New York City, Hollywood legend Robert De Niro marched alongside Rev. Al Sharpton and New York Attorney General Letitia James through midtown Manhattan to lead the rally, which has attracted more than 300,000 people.
In Minnesota, the flagship rally in St. Paul has drawn up to 100,000 people, including Bruce Springsteen who will perform his new song “Streets of Minneapolis,” a song written after the deaths of Renee Nicole Good and Alex Pretti.
More than 92,000 have come out in Athens, Georgia, 25,000 in San Diego, 20,,000 in Kansas City, and 15,000 in Houston, Texas.
In Hagerstown, a city of 40,000 in a deep-red patch of Maryland, more than 1,000 sign-bearing and costumed protesters showed up at an intersection in the center of town. Representatives for the state’s representatives gave speeches as did the Coalition to Stop the Camps, which is fiercely fighting a planned ICE detention center just outside the city.
This is the third No Kings Day, which follows earlier nationwide rallies in June and October of 2025. Today is by far the largest, with the anger towards Trump and his regime spreading across capital cities the world over, calling for an end to Trump’s authoritarian overreach, heartless immigration policies, and deadly, ill-conceived military adventures overseas.
In the United Kingdom, Italy, France, Spain, Germany, the Netherlands, Greece, Spain, Belgium, Mexico, Japan, and Australia, protesters marched the streets carrying signs blasting Trump and his war with Iran.
About 500,000 people gathered in London today in what was expected to be the biggest multicultural march in UK history.
If the worldwide “No Kings” protests, with millions standing up against Trump’s agenda, give you hope and strength, like and share.

They're all mad, Trump Derangement Syndrome, No Known Cure. LA International Airport closed this afternoon, due to bad visibility, caused by the smoke curling up off the heads and out of the ears of the deranged Never Trumpers.

Has he bombed Iran again yet?

[The Bedlington Terrier]

At last. The truth. It's all about the OIL.

IDF hammers Iranian weapons production sites; Iran fires salvos of missiles at southern Israel. But no problem here, as yet in northern Israel. (cross fingers! )

Israel fights on three fronts: Reporting from Amman, Jordan, Al Jazeera's Rob McBride said Israel is fighting this conflict on three fronts – Iran, Hezbollah in Lebanon and the Houthis in Yemen.

Iran launched six missile attacks at Israel between about 6 a.m. and 1 p.m. Five targeted the south of the country, while the sixth was aimed at the north and came alongside a barrage of rockets from Iran’s Lebanese proxy, terror group Hezbollah. No problem here lads I have my little tin hat ready. Plus an Air raid shelter is just behind my house,30 m away, Only thing I hate is that Air raid warning sound.
By why me ? I am from little ol' Rishton.

BT.. Israel, does not have Oil so why bomb us?? Is it the women here they are after?? :- )
