The Saudi state is a US & UK created colonial cancer in the Middle East, pumping out the regions resources whilst using its own brand of religious-fascism to crush anyone in the region who opposes the West.

Why is Zionism racism? A 'Jewish state' - which is the goal of Zionism - is not Jewish unless it has a Jewish majority, because without that they don't control the state. This is the central logic on which all Zionists agree, and it underwrites nearly everything that Israel does and is.

The US is going for televised executions. The rest of the world is not remotely surprised. The US has been supporting and sponsoring such behaviour in dozens of 'allied' fascist states for decades. The chickens always come home to roost.

F*ck ALL of this evil imperialist shit, and fair play to the Greens for throwing themselves into the fire for human decency

That includes Miliband and Burnhams new push for a ghettoised Palestinian state in the West Bank whilst still actively participating in the Gaza genocide and locking up elderly vicars as terrorists because they hold up banners.

The political and media culture in the UK is about as healthy as bollock cancer, and about as desirable.

And now it is being used, politically weaponised - aka Corbyn - to destroy another moderate-left UK social democrat who wants to nationalise water.

But this absolute fuckery is all ignored - this slow moving holocaust unfolding right in front our eyes - because calling it racist might upset the feelings of genocide supporters / deniers.

Zionism is the ideology of building a Jewish state. The Jewish state cannot exist without a Jewish majority. The desire to create a majority leads to ethnic cleansing, massacres and systematic discrimination.

Building settlements in the West Bank whilst trying to force the Palestinians there to accept a 'two state solution' in a bunch of 5 miles wide urban ghettos, each waiting for their own Gaza style 'final solution'? Zionism.

Palestinian refugees cannot return to their homes but Jews from anywhere in the world are allowed to 'return'? Zionism. Gaza systematically levelled, rendering it unfit for human habitation, which will eventually lower the Palestinian population of the country by about 30%? Zionism.

Up coming Palestinian elections, first in 20 years; - Hamas is barred from standing - The left are fighting like cats in a bag AGAIN - The nationalist ruling party just delayed the elections AGAIN for vague security reasons.

Reasonable quality extra virgin olive oil here is about $10 a litre because we benefits from having a few supermarkets that are tied into the european food system. 1 litre is about 9000kcals

Fascinating, thanks for that. In the US is Olive oil expensive? Also how about raw cocoa powder, low sugar peanut butter?

I posted a simple breakdown recently, but the cheapest way I have found to have a long lasting shelf stable emergency pantry that is nutritionally complete is black beans and rice with vegetable oil(for dietary fats), nutritional yeast, lemon juice, canned carrots, and UV irradiated canned mushrooms

Trump now says he won't attack Iran again before the US midterm elections. Think about that. Whether another country gets bombed is apparently something that can be fitted around an empires election timetable.

Yarp, I became a Marxist during my history BA. There are right wing 'historians', but their work is generally sloppy bullshit which academic historians don't take seriously, yet publishers love. Historians for rent, in other words
