I'm not aware of a single country that offered a refuge for the Iraqi Baath party to set up a government in exile. In fact is there a single government that has failed to recongise the new Iraqi governments as the legitimate government of Iraq.
Yeah sure there was a bit pointless virtue signalling. I think the French government appointed themselves as International whiners in chief, but there was zero opposition to the US invasion of any ..read more

Your characterization of the Russian invasion of a sovereign country as protecting the people of Donbass is idiotic. So I guess you are just trolling as you usually do. Or, and I never rule this out with far right wingers like yourself, just not smart enough to see what is going on.
Russia protecting several millions of ethnic Russians and its 300 year old naval headquarters = "idiotic".
US trying to occupy Russia's 300 year old naval headquarters with Ukranian cannon fodder = not idiotic?
The rest of your argument is even more weird to put it mildly.

We don't walk away from our allies says Genocide Joe.
Tell that to the Afghans, tell that to the Cypriots that Joe leaves occupying Northern Cyprus. Tell that to the the Kurds, which Joe allows Turks to occupy their lands both in turkey and Syria. Tell that to the Armenians that got ethnically cleansed as soon as they started seeking an alliance with America and NATO.

There was an American ethnigenesis in 1776, 1865, and 1965
Nah.

Doesn't this 'ethnogenesis' malarky fatally wound your genetic argument?
Under this scheme, ethnicities are a matter of choice with no requirement of being born into the 'tribe'.

There's nothing more progressive than supporting blood and soil, if the beneficiaries are indigenous

London (13.5%) had the highest percentage of people who identified as black but whites still made up the majority of the population (53.8%), as of 2021. The X poster who made the false claim has never been to London and he seems to have lost his Reddit account. But if you look at predominantly black areas in London such as Brixton, whites (6,529) barely beat blacks (6,291) in terms of raw numbers. In my youth, I often walked to the Brixton tube station and the area looked really dangerous.
Ethnic groups in London
White: 53.8% (2021) White British: 36.8% (2021)
Asian British: 20.8 ..read more

In Canada, Indigenous people have been harassed right off their land.
This, like in Israel, is the basis for all land claims by the state.
It is literally impossible to have land ownership in these countries without such harassment.
It seems you very much don't like ethnic harassment and intimidation, which is good, and we can agree on that. However, you keep only talking about pro-Palestinian protestors putting up tents, and have thus far completely ignored the harassment and intimidation of Jewish students. You either care about racist harassment or you don't. Pic ..read more
