The only risk in playing Russian Roulette is that you pull the trigger when a bullet's in the chamber. Otherwise it's perfectly safe.
The UK government is refusing to comment on whether US bombers from RAF Fairford or Diego Garcia are being allowed to use cluster bombs.

Watching Politico get told they're sanewashing shit by the guy they're sanewashing is just excellent. Media cooked. Getting dunked on by the people they're protecting. We are in the post-dignity era of the press.
they're gonna spend $50B re-opening the Strait of Hormuz over the next 6 months and then act like it's this huge victory when they only thing they accomplished was restoring the pre-war status quo
Hey #FIFA, hope you kept the receipt for that "peace prize" of yours.
Donald Trump is notorious for filing lawsuits at the drop of a hat. He's filed over 4,000 of them. Many for defamation.

Finally, America playing catch-up with the UK for a change, we've been jailing peaceful protesters under terrorism laws for ages.
Maybe if he got involved in fascist politics and did a couple of Nazi salutes the government would stop using his platforms? ...... Oh, wait.
“But, as you see, it's a beautiful day, the Strait of Hormuz is open and people are having a wonderful time.”

Wow. I hope that £1.2bn is covered by insurance and not coming out of the taxpayers pocket.
That's 90% of the UK eligible then.

UK govt "will not tolerate" energy firms profiteering from Iran war.
It will do what?
