Pointless statement. Like saying the Minster for Defense in Ireland has any say in anything serious.
Blinken is a government spokesman
I agree,of course I do but I dont want ghettos popping up here with welfare chancers and bad eggs.
We need a serious vetting process and our lads are not doing there job.Surely we can all agree on that?

Even if Biden wanted to keep Netanyahu in check, and I think he does - but I mean if he was extremely vocal and aggressive in public about it, it would still make no difference. Israel would be doing what it is doing anyway. Israel would simply ignore such a US president, and make sure that US president faced a firestorm of propaganda against them which would ensure their defeat at the next election. Israel laughs in the face of any resistance to its crimes from the US. It has all the power.
But in the long term, Israel has likely overreached here, because it will come to be seen by populations in Europe, increasingly the US, and the rest of the world, as no more than an evil bastard. And it will turn in on itself. But it will not lose its hold over the centres of power around the world. Outside of the hopeless victims of Gaza and Palestine, it will be Europe which feels the brunt of all this. Jewish people, Muslims, societies, as mass cynicism, mass conspiracism and racism grows ever stronger, and the problems of the world become ever more intractable.

Thats my point.They should be sent straight back -No ifs buts or maybe.
They have overreached. I think everyone would agree with that. I suppose in their defence they will say everyone around them wants them gone. Blown out of it etc.
The 7th October Hamas attack never seemed plausible. I canât fathom how that wasnât on their radar that day.
What would success look like for him? Heâs supported every democratic and republican war, heâs a zionist and a puppetâŚand blinken isnât any weaker than any of his predecessorsâŚheâs more than capable of bombing unarmed arabs.
Both biden and blinken have repeatedly stated that there are no restrictions, conditions or limits regarding how the Israelis use the weapons theyâre continuing to supply.
Theyâre as responsible as Netanyahu, and anyone condemning one without condemning the other isnât condemning either

The notion there is an existential threat to Israel from outside is pure bollocks. They have the second most advanced military in the world and the most powerful one fully bought. Theyâve behaved like monsters for decades.
The existential threat is from within as Israel itself has become increasingly fascist.
Israel was warned that something like October 7th could happen but because the headbangers hold the whip hand they moved military away from the peacenik communities in the south and concentrated them to back up the fascist settlers in the West Bank.
Itâs an object lesson in what happens when you put fundamentally unserious fascists in power.

Those lads are making Henry Kissinger look like an altar boy.
Theyâre responsible for thousands of civilian deaths. Absolute neo con cunts.
Christ almighty. The Secretary of State is the #3 in the executive branch and the #4 in line to the presidency. Blinken is responsible for US foreign policy more than any of his preseasons as Biden isnât even aware of whatâs occurring.
Blinken is a neocon Warhawk, had his hand in every disaster, Irae war, Libya, Syria, Afghanistan debacle, Russia/Ukraine and now Israel/gaza. He is the founder of a defense contractor company that benefits enormously from war so totally compromised
An absolute cunt of the highest order and utterly incompetent.

You are one gormless ape in fairness.
Youâre criticising somebody for supporting Israel, evenly though you openly fervently support Israelâs genocide.
And youâre calling them a âneo-conâ.
What exactly is this genocide you support if not neo-con?
Are you on the sauce again?
Blinken is a nodding dog.
Who is he nodding at?

@Tierneevin1979 is a nodding donkey.
Why?
My goodness you are an awful clown.
Blinken has far more influence on US foreign policy than anyone in the US government. Biden barely knows what day it is and can barely read the teleprompter.

Blinken would be a Simon Harris type, cop on with the messing.
I think it is a fair question to ask Jews and indeed non-Jews outside of Israel who support what Israel is doing to Gaza: How does what Israel is doing benefit the lot of Jewish people outside of Israel?
I think itâs also a fair question to ask the minority of pro-Palestine people whether Muslim or non-Muslim who have expressed support for what Hamas did on October 7th: How does expressing support for what Hamas did benefit the cause of Palestine or indeed the lot of Muslims in the west?
