Thanks t, agreed on the logistics aspects which I think Mason knows but doesn't really care about because he's propagandising for more military spending and more sabre rattling with a nuclear power, so he'll take what he can get. Also, it doesn't exactly shout 'rational calculator' if you respond to an attack on one country by escalating against another. Almost as though he's arguing for a strategy of 'chaos'... And referring to what's happening in Gaza as a 'humanitarian crisis', where the real problem is that some Israeli politicians have said nasty things, as opposed to their actions, which are clearly genocidal... so hypocritical from one so keen to use the G word went it comes to Russia or China. A few examples: https://nitter.poast.org/paulmasonnews/search?f=tweets&q=genocide 'Thousands protest in London led by Ukrainian children - "Stop the genocide in Ukraine!" 🇺🇦🇬🇧' - https://nitter.poast.org/paulmasonnews/status/1629165782407020544#m 'Killing members of the group ✅ Causing serious harm to them ✅ Deliberately trying to make cities uninhabitable ✅ Forced transfer of children ✅ .. after RIA-Novostii published a plan to eliminate Ukrainians as a people ... "genocide" is not rhetoric here [image from the convention on the prevention and punishment of the crime of genocide] - https://nitter.poast.org/paulmasonnews/status/1593147531889762310#m 'The simultaneous emergence of (a) prima facie evidence of Russian genocide (b) calls by Russian state media for genocide should be a turning point for those sections of the left that have refused to openly support and arm Ukraine, and support sanctions... here's why 1/ ' - https://nitter.poast.org/paulmasonnews/status/1510935595480145924#m 'Because what defines them is not tankism - it can be eg the assertion that holding the PRC to the 1948 UNDHR is "Eurocentric", that there is no Uighur genocide etc... as Thompson said it's a theology not active reason' - https://nitter.poast.org/paulmasonnews/status/1503710049197297670#m etc etc... Russia and China never deliberately choked off food, water, medicine and other forms of aid to entire civilian populations - or killed those trying to - while they were indiscriminately bombing them and reducing their entire society to rubble. Why does he not view it as 'goodwill replenished' when Russia and Iran are attacked, including terrorism visited on civilians or diplomats? The double standards and hypocrisy should be screeching like nails on a chalk board every time Mason speaks. I wonder how many people hear it that way... jeers, I |
