It’s the 111th anniversary today of the birth of Harry Rée, who was a teacher and conscientious objector when the Second World War broke out, and by the time it ended, when he was 31, had invented ‘blackmail sabotage’ and got a DSO, an OBE, a Croix de Guerre, and a Medaille de la Resistance

Who came up with that phrase and would it be exactly the same as the Tea Party, or would it be a left-wing equivalent?

And before anyone asks, yeah, Trump, too. And George W. Bush. And Clinton. And Obama. Basically the entirety of the American political class, their sycophants, and their enablers, who are all complicit in the goals of empire, plunder, and genocide. Fuck the whole lot of them.

No, it's fucking stupid, and suggests that both you and the prick that posted it are on the very same side as Trump wrt Israel's genocide.

"The only reason Hamas isn't also engaged in genocide against Jews in Israel is they lack the means"

That really is the sort of shit they come out with on Fox News.
