Bulwarks, No Bulwarks

"The peoples of the region are defending themselves, and will continue to defend themselves, against the terrorists.

"The government and armed forces of the Islamic Republic of Iran will help them everywhere.

"Iran is a cornerstone of stability in this sensitive Middle East region, which is today dominated by unrest, security problems, massacres and fear." 

So said President Rouhani yesterday.

Of course Iran is a bulwark against terrorism in the Middle East. If not, then where is? Saudi Arabia? Qatar?

It is time to get the hired help of them and of the State that IS mysteriously never attacks out of the way, and to stand instead with our gallant Iranian, Syrian and Lebanese allies who are already in the field against IS.

Again, in marked contrast to the State that will not so much as take any Christian refugees from Syria or Iraq.

  1. It is time to look at the role of money from Saudi Arabia, Qatar and "the State that IS mysteriously never attacks" in keeping you out of the Labour Party, out of Parliament and out of the media.
