“National self-determination” is Leninist, bourgeois, drivel, aptly exposed by Mary Marcy and Rosa Luxemburg.
The nation-state is the executive of the capitalist class of each state. Why should workers take up arms and die for it? It isn’t theirs. The workers have no country (Mary Marcy). Down with patriotism!I think my pessimism and generalisation of fellow workers in the UK has a lot to do with where I live, in an elderly/middle-aged conservative, suburbia.
But when I think of the multi-cultural urban landscape I take some courage that it won’t be plain-sailing for Krieg Starmer & Co. to sell war, not even with the mainstream media licking their boots.
I hope not, anyway.If the rumours are true (?) that Starmer also did a deal with Zelensky over the minerals, won’t he want to ensure his finger in the pie before Trump takes the lot?
Yes, exactly.
” I have long held the belief that we live in a psychopathic system, in the sense that those in charge display maybe all or at least some of the traits of psychopathy: lack of empathy, superficial charm, manipulativeness, lack of remorse, grandiosity, impulsivity and poor behavioural control and this action surely displays this. No money for life and plenty of money for death.”
I will probably attract more uninformed grief over mentioning his name again (😨) but what you have described about our masters was perfectly presented in the honest and spot-on descriptions of them by the Marquis de Sade (for which his works were banned for so long).
If the US is to have work teams extracting minerals in Ukraine after a deal, it will not want European troops milling about and drawing Russian fire.
Ireland will send troops, alongside Starmer’s, and so will Turkey. 20 countries have signed up.

Indeed we do. But now I am worried about Putin’s intentions.
I don’t see him moving into the Kiev-ruled Ukraine while Americans are there removing minerals. I do wonder why he doesn’t want the minerals himself, which will be taken from under his nose.
I do see him wanting a pro-Russian president in Kiev (whom I don’t see the Ukrainians voting for!) and also I do see him then taking Moldova (which will reinforce the West’s narrative and make them more nervous and probably pre-empting war).
Would he attack NATO Europe if France and Britain put troops in?
I don’t know.
