US Israeli bad faith

March 2, 2026

Alison Broinowski’s brink is now crossed. The US has launched a second war within a year on Iran without Congressional approval, and while it was to meet Iran again in Vienna for further talks. Bessent was clear that the US deliberately created economic destabilisation in Iran. Further, the UK just said it would not allow UK airbases to be used by the US for a war on Iran, then allowed US F22s flying to Israel to be staged through RAF Lakenheath.

We have all seen the picture of Trump, Rubio, Vance and Ratcliffe watching a screen while 80 people were murdered by people directed by them in Venezuela, followed by seizure of control of its oil assets. Just like Iran in the early 1950s and Iraq in 2003. Now it’s Iran’s turn again, and our key trading partner, China, risks being heavily affected by seizure of control of Iran’s oil, with a possible blowback on our economy. Our government has just allowed more destruction of the world’s only jarrah forest, because it contains the critical mineral gallium. Does Iran mean we couldn’t say no to the US on gallium with FPA bases in our midst? Still for IRBO, Albo?
