Apparently, the Iranians have got themselves a new leader to replace the snuffed out Ayatollah, but they aren’t saying who it is because Netanyahu & Trump’s death squads will probably set out to bump him off as well.

Which again prompts me to muse about why the fuck can’t somebody - anybody - please do an Ayatollah job on the Tango-hued tosser ?

Americans seem to be quite good at bumping off politicians - think JFK, RFK (snr), MLK, Lincoln, Charlie Kirk, Malcolm X, Abe Lincoln, and so on. That kid in Pennsylvania failed rather badly, mind, as did John Hinckley on Reagan in 1981.

So why don’t they get their shit together and rid us of Trump?

The protections in place around the US president are understandably tight, but don’t assassins love a challenge ?

A fundamental conceptual question, here : Exactly when did it become more or less universally accepted (for it seems to be) that the USA, as the biggest economy on the planet and the most powerful military force on the planet, has the right simply to attack any other part of the world that its (these days invariably deranged) leader decides to , and for any reason it might deign to give ?

It's Khamenei's son.

Trump and Netanyahu’s war on Iran has, it seems triggered a fucking global economic shock wave, with prices not just of oil and gas, but fucking everything else as well going up like rockets and endangering the UK Labour government’s hard-won progress on economic stabilisation and inflation rate reduction.

And all because of the sheer caprice of a fucking orange-tinted fuckwit whom our American cousins have decided to have as their president. As illustrations of consequences go, this one’s a brammer.

Thanks, USA. Fucking thanks a fucking bunch, you utter, utter cunts.

It's fun to commit war crimes.
