Pedestriansfirst“‘Sounds familiar’: how the US-Israeli war in Iran parallels Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.” Both evil. Both unnecessary. Both perpetrated by a mad wannabe dictator. Both cause incredible suffering. Both excellent for the arms industry. The people of the world need to depose their dictators and choose much better leaders. #War #Russia #USA #Israel #PPU
“Young people in Britain will be offered a gap year-style scheme by the Ministry of Defence, in an effort to introduce citizens to military life early as part of a new “whole of society” approach to defence.” Whole of society approach to war! Not sure the Peace Pledge Union are going to be too thrilled by this but the warmongers will be. #War #PPU
“The US will sell F-35 fighter jets to Saudi Arabia. One F-35A jet costs on average $82.5m.” It’s great that the money from the oil (that will help destroy our liveable planet) is being spent on something as worthwhile as killing machines. #ClimateCrisis #Oil #War #PPU
LukeJust making up a couple of white poppies from my stash for others in the family who requested them.
I wore one last week at work and two people asked where I got it, and I had a long and involved conversation with a Sri Lankan peace activist and doctoral student who happened to be at a conference I was at.
Probably a bit late to post this now but peace is not as seasonal thing.

美媒：中國禁輝達晶片，意在TikTok外迫美另行讓步；央視曝光阿里巴巴AI晶片媲美H20

“The race for the two miles-a-second super weapons that Putin says turn targets to dust. Thanks to their speed and manoeuvrability – travelling at more than five times the speed of sound – they are a formidable weapon, so much so that they could change the way wars are fought.” Humanity is so inventive. #War #PPU
