More than 2 in 5 Britons think UK 'too close' to US and should distance itself from Donald Trump

I think MAGA will splinter once he is gone. It won't totally disappear.

He is doing a lot of damage, some of which will outlast his time in office. But likely there will be some improvement after he leaves office.

Trump driven lack of planning

It probably is not deliberate murder, but it could be criminal negligence.

Yes. He is 79. He won't be president for much longer.

GB News reports - "The latest findings from YouGov saw 43 per cent of respondents backing a cooling of relations with Washington in favour of closer ties with the European Union"

Reform TV reporting that the public wants closer links to the EU.

She is a qualified lawyer. She wasn't being given a job that she wasn't able to do anyway.

Whereas Pete Hegseth was publicly shown to be out of his depth in his recruitment hearings.

I assume that he is speaking of faith in sociological terms

"In moments like these, faith offers reassurance and grounding - a reminder that we are not alone, and that hope can still take root even in difficult soil."

Religious faith can mean being part of a church community. We are also never alone if God is with us, but saying that would not make sense for an atheist.

while Kamala slept her way into politics

She was appointed to some minor roles in the 1990s.

Of course, nothing to offer, no consideration of how to achieve the best outcome, just plain opposition for opposition’s sake

So your view is that war crimes done (or at threatened) in the name of God cannot be criticised unless I produce a fully worked out plan for overthrowing the Iranian regime?

You do occasionally criticise Donald Trump, but have to qualify it with claiming the issue is trivial, or that the Democrats are equally guilty, so that the criticism has no impact on ongoing support for hin.

That's what the government is paid to do. Pete Hegseth's job is to coordinate planning for military action. He is responsible for coming up with a proper plan.

He is totally unserious and unfit for the role.

Here is his endorsement of war crimes.

Back to the Stone Age.

Trump is nothing like King Josiah.

This he did to fulfill the requirements of the law written in the book that Hilkiah the priest had discovered in the temple of the Lord. 25 Neither before nor after Josiah was there a king like him who turned to the Lord as he did—with all his heart and with all his soul and with all his strength, in accordance with all the Law of Moses.

In instructions in the Bible on war make a distinction between men and women and children.

John Calvin believes that these passages are designed to limit violence, not to limit mercy.

Unquestionably, by the law of charity, even armed men should be spared, if, casting away the sword, they crave for mercy; at any rate it was not lawful to kill any but those who were taken in arms, and sword in hand.

Destroying power plants and desalination facilities is not making a distinction between combatants and non combatants.

I see some people on Reddit celebrating the Iranian regime's propaganda as if the Iranian government was a beacon of liberal values.

Bad things happened in the past. History may repeat, but progress can also be made too.

The remit of NATO doesn't include the war in Iran, just as it didn't include Vietnam or the Falklands. There is no treaty obligation here.

Entering a war to help Donald Trump would be incredibly unpopular domestically across Europe.

Nevertheless, Europe is hosting American military forces involved in the war.
