“Western idealism has been disastrous”

The kindest thing I can say in response to your ‘contribution’ is that it is a narrow, selfish, extremely biased non solution. Indeed it is a recipe for further Oct 7th attacks except next time it will be far more vicious..
In its illegal, barbaric, criminal, inhuman murderous revenge attacks on largely defenseless women and children, Israel has forfeited its right to exist. That is the plain fact of the matter. I hope and pray that the terrorist state of Zionist Israel will cease to exist and the sooner the better.

When you kill their children they hate you. That is the formula. I have already read lists of statements by Israeli leaders dehumanizing the Palestinians. Using war rhetoric to justify a slaughter is simple-minded propaganda. The more we get of that the less we listen. It sounds like you want a war with Iran. Which means you want America to be in a war with Iran.
Yeah, from the river to the sea is actually a Jewish slogan. When students say it at protests over here though it gets counted as anti-semitism. We are in “a ferocious surge of antisemitism” says Biden.
We get tons of Israeli propaganda and manipulation in the US. It has basically destroyed the democratic party. Because most democrats want to focus on our problems, like the SW Border. But the power players in the Biden administration, mostly Jewish, ignored the Border and are spending all our political capital on Israel. See this list of Jews in Biden administration. Only in an Israeli newspaper. This list was never published in US. So I think there is probably a good chance that you get your wish and America is manipulated into yet another war to protect Israel, because your country is controlling the politics of mine. Biden and his administration is controlled by Israel.

I agree. One might cite this interview (and Unherd are right to conduct it, for our information) as an example of self-inflicted Stockholm Syndrome on the part of the erstwhile “ambassador”, i.e. without having been captive as such.

Dalton appears to be an example of that species of diplomat who regard geopolitics as essentially a game between various more or less hostile powers, a game to which issues of ideology and religion are simply not relevant. This results in a blindness to the sincerity and fervour (and barbarity) of the stated aims of Hamas and others, and makes it difficult if not impossible for a person like Dalton to understand what such groups and their Iranian funders are really up to. In the 1930s there were likewise British officials and politicians who thought that Hitler’s stated aims, for example in Mein Kampf, could be disregarded as so much playing to the gallery of his followers. Presumably this blindness arises in part from the blandly unideological psyche of the typical old-school Western diplomat, something which of course has its advantages – but an inability to conceive of fanatical mindsets is a disastrous impediment in politics.
Btw, when Sayers asked Dalton ‘What should Israel have done instead?’ I knew even before he replied that he would not answer the question. This is characteristic.

The US (and its vassal UK) sought / seek the utter destruction of Iraq, Afghanistan, Lybia and now Russia and Iran. So what’s the difference? The difference is this: USUK has CARRIED OUT its plans with murderous effectiveness! Millions of dead innocent people to show for it.
But Iran merely ‘wishing for the same in relation to its enemies is reprehensible is it? Is there some logic and/or reason in your views or are you just a blind, narrow minded racist thinking its okay for the West but appalling for the East to hold similar views? ..and even Okay for the West to carry out its many genocidal attacks? Are you incapable of simple objectivity?

You remind me of Talia Perkins. The same ardor, revolutionary uncompromisingness and answers to everyone who is not interested in your opinion

All the best!
