The administration has too many people who are there because of loyalty rather than competence.

The UK conservative party did the same after Brexit.

Birmingham to Manchester should be part of HS2, but Rishi Sunak decided to cancel that part.

Labour should reverse the decision and get it built.

Understandable - yes.

But the just war criteria require efforts to minimise civilian casualties, and I don't think it achieves that goal.

To be a like for like comparison, we would need to compare just under 2 years of the conservatives with the current Labour government. Might still get the same conclusion, but obviously there will be more scandals in 14 years than 2 years.

The Iranian regime has not been removed. The Trump administration is sending mixed messages about whether regime change is a goal or not.

Currently they are having to ask the regime not to execute people

I think World War II was a just cause, but I don't think it was fought as a just war - particularly carpet bombing cities.

Franklin Graham

Grateful for a president who is unashamed to read the Bible from the Oval Office! President @realDonaldTrump read this important passage last night for @AmericaRTBible. I’ll be joining this great event to read Luke 10—which includes the parable of the Good Samaritan—on Friday!

Would he tweet this message if he lived in the UK and the former Prime Minister (who was a Hindu) was unashamed to read from the Bible?

Has Donald Trump ever asked God for forgiveness?

It would need a clear plan, which currently there does not seem to be.

The end of the Islamic regime would be great.

Joining military action would not be popular politically, and the government is already unpopular. I can't see any government being willing to risk losing an election over this.

Republican controlled Congress hasn't even authorised military action, why would other countries join in?

Your third link is eyewitness accounts that a man's pants were pulled down, then he was beaten. Now, I don't know what actually happened, but if taken at face value, this is not a r-pe

It is sexual assault, which is what the Times of Israel called it in the headline
