Craig Murray: The War for Greater Israel — 3/3/26

Craig Murray: The War for Greater Israel

Craig Murray is an author, broadcaster and human rights activist. He was British ambassador to Uzbekistan from August 2002 to October 2004

What long-term lessons China, Russia and the Global South are learning from the abandonment by the entire West of the principles of international law, we shall see in the decades to come.

Snips —

It would appear that we are going to witness an aerial campaign to destroy Iran’s civilian infrastructure, as in Iraq where 65 percent of clean drinking water, 50 percent of hospitals and clinics and 80 percent of electrical generation was destroyed by “liberation” by the NATO powers. The object is the destruction of Iran as a viable state.

The attempted obliteration of Iran is part of a systematic attempt to eliminate by physical force all pockets of resistance to American hegemony.
We have seen Rubio’s astonishing assertion of Imperialism as a positive force. Matthew Lynn in The Washington Post exemplified the new Western doctrine. He mocked China for its pacific policy. He argued that for China to build infrastructure for the Global South was futile because the United States might simply seize, blockade or destroy any infrastructure by military force. This he viewed as not shameful, but a great triumph.

Sorry … nickname for Andrei Martyanov – Russian-American military expert – whose site is https://smoothiex12.blogspot.com/ – I understand him to say that he had checked his Russian military sources and found no such news … trust me, he knows more than Ayden about what’s going on.

He is sending our sons and daughters to die – for israel … where is Barron?

Here’s another Southern Lady – shout it out Sister!

They know how to browse TG channels by all kinds of creeps. Not a word about it in Russian media.

Mr. P

I listened to Helmer … for 15 mins.

Biased I am … admitting right away … I think he defends Trump/USA too often and … well … the business about Trump going along with ‘israel would have gone anyway’ … I totally disagree with… twice in 2024 bibi asked Biden to strike Iran and he said NO… israel could not have gone w/out US … see Tucker Carlson most recent or Aaron Tate (today with Judge Nap). imho Helmer puts his words in Lavrov’s mouth too often, expressing Helmer’s intuition, imho – which being a woman who frequently goes with ‘intuition’ I readily recognize it in others (insert smiley face if you like!) As for unconventional weapons, bibi needs American B-52 for what Helmer suggests Israel can do without US … see article at link

Give Aaron (Grayzone, and a pretty smart fella) a listen and see what you think.
