it won't help.

the next assahola in line is apparently his son, if he can fight off some other pile of assaholes that all want to be the grand poo-bah.

iran needs systemic overthrow.

the kurds in the mountains are the best solution. they're armed. they can actually fight. they won't just get mowed down. but they need air cover.

all of these people saying "but there's no day after" are dead wrong. there's a potent army waiting for the signal. the best comparisons really are the french and spanish revolutions, and we don't want them eventually getting slaughtered by the red chinese army.

mark carney has a full time job.

so long as he still wants to be prime minister of canada, he should not be accepting requests to join the transitional government in gaza and, in fact, that would appear to have been somewhat of a trick appointment by donald trump. it both places canada subservient to american hegemony and labels carney as a palestinian sympathizer, which will not help him electorally. in canada, anybody that stands up for palestine at all instantly loses their seat. i don't know if it's in reaction to the extremist protests we've been seeing here or if it's more deep-seeded, but identifying yourself as pro-palestinian is just about the best way to lose an election in canada, at almost every level of government. it's consistent. this is an underhanded insult.

the opposition should correctly make a big issue out of it and even try to topple the government over it.

conversely, if this scheme is to have any prospect of success, it will require focused people to actually run the place. gaza needs a functioning government, not a board of oligarchs.
