Just seen the video and at one point Morgan says "This country says they are a terror group. Should they stay in power?"

Amazing arrogance that we in the U.K. should tell the Palestinian people who they should elect.

Well England had always had very strong views about other countries electing people who they consider terrorists.

Book rec that's relevant for our times: recently I've been enjoying White Malice by Susan Williams, which is largely about how the Belgians, USA and UK were all plotting to kill Patrice Lumumba, the first elected prime minister of the Congo, for the crimes of 'well, what if he decides to become a Communist?"

It's got the CIA MKUltra chief Sidney Gottlieb flying over with tubes of poisoned toothpaste, it's got the UN Secretary-General dying in a mysterious plane crash, and it's very much a good read on the chaotic and self-serving whisper-chains that can lead to 'Western intervention.'

That isn't true, sometimes they are elected as a direct result of western intervention.

In the latter case it's not your money and then you get to keep a percentage of it as your money.

Ok I think I've solved it.

When an Actual Hitler is elected, the likelihood of Western intervention is directly proportionate to the Actual Hitler's opinion of Actual Actual Hitler (Josef Stalin)

The nurses didn't mention anything about (not)pissing myself when I had a CT scan a few years back, but as soon as it finished, and I sat up on the table, I threw up and only some of it went in the cardboard bowl.

Almost as good as the time they gave me a big syringe of morphine as a teenager.
