Just reading about what could happen if the US and Israel keep bombing the Bushehr power plant and the stupidity, insanity and pure evil running rampant right now is sickening beyond belief.

And anyone who doubts how insane and depraved he is, consider this 'Easter message'

Anyone who doubts how insane and depraved Trump is, take a look at his 'Easter message'.

Back to the Stone Age One World Under a Madman

My substack piece on Trump, the Stone Age and the 'silence of the lambs' re US-Israeli war crimes that is paving the way for even greater calamities. open.substack.com/pub/mattcarr...

Insane, lying, ignorant, stupid, psychotic speech from a man who is far closer to the 'stone age' in moral stature and intellectual capacity than the country of 93 million he wants to send there 'where they belong'.

Like watching evolution going into reverse.

Thanks America!

Are You Not Entertained? MAGA’s Theatre of Cruelty

My substack news letter on the MAGA fantasy of American greatness... and that fantasy is coming apart. mattcarr.substack.com/p/moby-trump

So the criminal madman is 'postponing' his threat to blow up Iran's energy infrastructure - a war crime - and wreck the lives of millions both inside and outside Iran.

Thank you criminal madman. As Mark Rutte would say, we're really grateful to you for keeping us safe.

On the day Trump threatens to bomb Iran's energy and water facilities, Rutte jumps straight in with full support for Trump’s lies.

This is not diplomacy but shameful, grovelling complicity in this criminal catastrophe.

Boom! Kerching! Minab and the New Age of Barbarism

Trump: Rushes into illegal war

Illegal war doesn't go well

Trump discovets that Strait of Hormuz exists

Pleads with allies to keep it open

Allies see the trick. Dont want to be dragged into illegal war

Trump threatens NATO

Black Rain Destroying Tehran in Order to Save It

My substack newsletter on the military doctrines behind the bombing of Tehran's oil refineries and the devastation of Beirut: mattcarr.substack.com/p/black-rain

Trump now claiming that 'based on what Jared told me', he believed that Iran was going to attack the US.🤡🤡🤡🤡

Seems clear now that Iran is 'winning' this atrocious conflict. Not in the sense that it can define the superpower and its lackey, but through surviving.

Clear also that millions of people in Iran and beyond, will pay a terrible price for Trump and Netanyahu's reckless criminality.

Law and Disorder in Sixteenth Century Seville - Aspects of Crime For much of the sixteenth century, Seville was Spain’s emblematic imperial city. It was the main port of entry for silver, gold and other treasures from Spain’s overseas empire, and the port of embark...

My piece on the Aspects of Crime website on prisons, crime and policing in 16th century Seville. aspectsofcrime.com/law-and-diso...

And blowing up an oil refinery, thereby pouring burning oil through and potentially lethal contamination on to a city of 9 million?

We know the answer. But once again, the silence is deafening.

Wouldn't want to upset our 'allies' etc etc.

We will all pay for this

And blowing up a girls school in multiple strikes?

Once again, there is only the rustle of tumbleweed

What if Iran, in the midst of negotiations with US and Israel, suddenly carried out missile strikes on Washington, perhaps blowing up the White House?

'Treacherous...deceitful...intolerable evil etc'

Yet when Israel and US do it...nothing

How do you think Western govs would react if Iran found a way to kill Trump or Netanyahu?

My guess is 'horrifying', 'monstrous barbarism', 'rogue state', 'lawless terrorism' etc

Yet barely a word of criticism re. assassination of Khameini

Lots of discussion of rising oil prices etc today. Not a word of protest from any of the defenders of the 'rules-based order' about what Trump/Israel have done to a city with a population of 9 million people.

The Blood-Dimmed Tide Trump sets the world on fire

"This is gangster-imperialism in practice. This is one more reason why Operation Epic Fury should be called Operation Epic Depravity: a rampant display of lawless violence, unconstrained by any humanitarian or legalistic considerations or any pretensions to nation building or democracy building."

The Blood-Dimmed Tide Trump sets the world on fire

"In The Godfather...Michael Corleone attends his nephew’s baptism, while his hitmen massacre the rival Barzini and the Tataglia families, who the Corleones had lured into a negotiated peace. The Witkoff/Kushner team played the same game with the Iranians..."

A weird and disconcerting combination of messianic self-belief, hubris, cynicism, intellectual shallowness, and grovelling servility to the rich and powerful.

Not in the least surprised that Tony Blair wanted the UK to support the criminal US-Israeli strikes. A thoroughly despicable, hollow, messianic, dogmatic advocate of endless war,who has never reflected, never learned anything, never understood how shallow he is.

Yep. I don't see him doing it though

This is coming. Starmer is not Sánchez. You may prefer him to Badenoch and Farage in this situation - who wouldn't? But he will fold and join this fuckery and already partly has:

www.theguardian.com/world/2026/m...

Not in the least surprised by this. Starmer 'standing up to Trump' was always theatre/sleight of hand, eliding the distinction between offensive/defensive.

He may not be Badenoch but he is closer to Merz than he is to Sánchez.

Sánchez saying what should be said. How much would I like to have leaders in this country who can talk like this

This is the kind of orientalist racist garbage that people like Niall Ferguson used to spout.

You don't have to love the Iranian regime to recognize that it is as capable of geopolitical decisions in what it perceives as its national interest as any other county.
