    Begin took the money for Nobel Peace Prize in 1978 and then 4 years later presided over the bombing of Beirut. I don’t think they asked him to pay it back.

    Damn, I missed this. I could have used it to reply.
    I will try to look for the tweet about Begin winning Nobel Peace Prize? Oh well.

    I’ve just read the piece. Workers need to take note! This is odd though
    left wing attack on Labour in a right wing paper?

    I tweeted that a Labour government when it introduced its incomes policy, pay norms? Pay cut by any other means. Employers said that they wanted to pay staff more, to which Labour brought in a law any Employer that broke the law break their incomes policy faced prison.
    I remember Dennis Healey, I think, when he bought in his incomes policy, wage cuts, saying; “it would hurt him more”
    Who needs enemies with friends like Labour.

    The leader of Israeli terrorist group, Menachem Begin, later became Israels Prime minister.
    Just tweeted that maybe Hamas are doing the same, it worked fine (terrorism that is) for Zionists.

    Before the creation of the state of Israel, he was the leader of the Zionist militant group Irgun, the Revisionist breakaway from the larger Jewish paramilitary organization Haganah. He proclaimed a revolt, on 1 February 1944, against the British mandatory government, which was opposed by the Jewish Agency. As head of the Irgun, he targeted the British in Palestine.[3] Later, the Irgun fought the Arabs during the 1947–48 Civil War in Mandatory Palestine and, as its chief, Begin was described by the British government as the “leader of the notorious terrorist organisation”.

    That passage from Antonio Domene about “Knowing the Zionists’ greed for power and money” seems rather anti-semitic. Why single out the Jewish nationalists (Zionists) for this when it applies to all capitalist states? It sounds as if he means “knowing the Jews’ greed for power and money”. Which is definitely anti-semitic.

    Definitely not acceptable language here. But it does put the party case succinctly, that wars (obviously not a full on all out war in this instant) are fought over natural resources, trade routes including water tributaries, land and people. Even if the author would probably not call himself ‘class conscious’? This is the first time l have read about what appears to be a sizable potental economic opportunities in the region.

    X twitter someone has made a poll. Who should Socialists support? Israel or Palestine. Can’t find the poll now?

    I tweeted this: Neither. Workers have no country. This is a basic tenent of Marxism.

    Just as the Party opposition to the State of Israel, we oppose the creation of a Palestinian state. Only Socialism,a Stateless, moneyless, production to meet needs, with free access to goods and services is in the interests of the working class.

    As I have mentionedLiverpool. Their former captain Jordan Henderson who left for Saudi club Al-Ettifaq FC.
    Henderson was prominent
    during the FA, it’s kicked homophobia
    out campaign. Handing out rainbow
    laces to teammates.
    He has now signed for £700,000 a week, a 3 year contract, Liverpool FC received £12m from the deal.
    Does he have a problem going to play in the country where its human rights abuses are in question?
    In fact, he says he is hurt by the criticism?
    However, criticism is that
    Saudi has strict rules on homosexuality, it has the death penalty for homosexuality.
    In fact, Henderson he is hurt by the criticism?
