John Major Condemns the Iran War.. Content Warning.
I can't say I've cared for many Conservative prime ministers. Most, if not all, Tory leaders have been enemies of the working class, despite the ethos of one-nation Conservatism. Look at the last shower of Tory leaders we have had before Sir Keir Starmer took the keys of No 10. However, I actually didn't mind John Major, who became prime minister after the fall of Margaret Thatcher. Unlike many Tories, John Major was not from the Oxbridge set. Sir John Major was born in Brixton and came from a fairly ordinary background. He worked his way to the top and replaced Thatcher. Major and his wife seemed like they could have lived next door to you. Nothing controversial about them or scandalous. The most you could say about the Majors is that they were dull and boring. But compared to the last 5 Conservative prime ministers, we have had, starting with David Cameron and ending with Rishi Sunak, I'd rather have had dull and boring.

Trump: Considering Occupying Kharg Island.
When Israel and the US decided on 28 February to take military action against Iran, they were in for a shock, or so it seems. The policy of decapitation of enemy leadership has always been Israel's policy. Countless leaders that Israel regards as enemies have been assassinated in this way. Whether from Mossad, the IDF, the Israeli Air Force, whatever. The US, of late, has also adopted this policy. The reasoning being that killing the leaders of an enemy organisation or country will cut off the head of the snake. The problem with that is the snake grows another head. When Israel killed Hezbollah Chief Hasan Nasrallah, yes, it shook the group to its very foundations. But the group under a new leadership is battling Israel in Lebanon now as we speak.
