Is Macron trying to pretend like France has never killed civilians as a result of war? Or I don't understand what gives him moral validity to scold others...  Also if I'm not mistaken, Macron is the same guy who tried be soft and compassionate towards Putin after he did the same in Ukraine. Again, why should anybody listen to him? Is he trying to win Palestinian votes in next elections or smth?

Yup, and probably trying to nip the impending riots in Marseille and Paris suburbs in the bud.

David Cameron returns to UK government as foreign secretary
Former PM makes surprise comeback as part of reshuffle in which Suella Braverman replaced by James Cleverly as home secretary

https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2023/nov/13/david-cameron-returns-to-uk-government-as-foreign-secretary

David Cameron has returned to government as UK foreign secretary, in a stunning comeback for the former prime minister that highlighted Rishi Sunak’s willingness to take risks as he looks to revive his political fortunes.

Downing Street announced on Monday that Cameron would join the government, accepting a peerage in order to do so, as part of a wider reshuffle in which Suella Braverman was sacked as home secretary and replaced by the foreign secretary, James Cleverly.

A spokesperson also confirmed Jeremy Hunt would remain as chancellor.

Cameron posted on X, formerly known as Twitter: “We are facing a daunting set of international challenges, including the war in Ukraine and the crisis in the Middle East. At this time of profound global change, it has rarely been more important for this country to stand by our allies, strengthen our partnerships and make sure our voice is heard.

“While I have been out of front-line politics for the last seven years, I hope that my experience – as Conservative Leader for eleven years and Prime Minister for six – will assist me in helping the Prime Minister to meet these vital challenges.”

Cameron stood down in 2016 after losing the Brexit referendum, but reportedly told friends in 2018 he wanted to return to frontline politics, preferably as foreign secretary.

Since then he has maintained a relatively low profile, though he became embroiled in scandal two years ago when he lobbied government ministers to provide financing for the now-insolvent financial services company Greensill Capital.

He returned to the headlines last month when he said Sunak’s decision to cancel the HS2 high-speed train line between Birmingham and Manchester was wrong, adding: “We are heading in the wrong direction.”

Cameron has also been a strong supporter of the UK retaining its commitment to spending 0.7% of gross national income on international aid, a commitment Sunak has since junked.

Cameron said in his online statement: “Though I may have disagreed with some individual decisions, it is clear to me that Rishi Sunak is a strong and capable Prime Minister, who is showing exemplary leadership at a difficult time. I want to help him to deliver the security and prosperity our country needs and be part of the strongest possible team that serves the United Kingdom and that can be presented to the country when the General Election is held.”

Sunak’s decision to bring back Cameron is likely to please moderates in the Conservative party who have been dismayed by Braverman’s aggressively rightwing rhetoric on issues such as immigration, policing and homelessness.

It could also fuel anger on the right of the party, especially given Cameron’s last meaningful political action was to lead the failed campaign to remain in the EU.

Reacting to Cameron’s appointment: Pat McFadden MP, Labour’s National Campaign Coordinator, said: “A few weeks ago Rishi Sunak said David Cameron was part of a failed status quo, now he’s bringing him back as his life raft.

“This puts to bed the prime minister’s laughable claim to offer change from 13 years of Tory failure.”

I think Suella is suffering from a syndrome occuring in some semi-Pakistani people.
It's the syndrome of whitism - they want to become white.
Being a Tory is only a mild instance of the syndrome but it seems she is afflicted by the works.
The Tory party has carried out research and they are appointing such people as home secretary.

Time to put CCTV on the pig pens.......

An unofficial biography of David Cameron written by the Conservative donor Lord Ashcroft contains a series of allegations. They include that the prime minister spent time in a drug-taking environment at university, that he took part in a bizarre dinner club initiation ritual, and another claim about Cameron’s knowledge of the peer’s offshore tax status.

One specific allegation is that, in the words of the Daily Mail, Cameron took part in an initiation ceremony in which he “put his penis” into a dead pig’s mouth. It cites a source – a current MP – who claims to have seen photographic evidence. It allegedly took place at a notorious Oxford University drinking club, the Piers Gaveston Society.

Migration and Multiculturalism Crisis: Sweden's Retreat

 

Migration and Multiculturalism Crisis: Sweden’s Retreat – Lessons and Solutions

https://www.rodaportal.net/?p=1054

 

INTRODUCTION

Migration and multiculturalism are two topics that have garnered significant attention and debate worldwide. The complexities and challenges associated with immigration are undeniable, and if not addressed effectively, they can lead to adverse consequences. In this article, we will explore the multifaceted aspects of unchecked migration and multiculturalism, using Sweden’s experience as a case study. Our aim is not just to highlight the problems but also to delve into solutions and emphasize the importance of well-thought-out, strategic approaches to these complex issues. Join us on this educational journey!

The Multiculturalism Debate in Sweden:

Multiculturalism, often celebrated as a symbol of diversity and inclusivity, is a defining characteristic of many nations. Sweden, once recognized for its social cohesion and cultural homogeneity, witnessed a transformation in its immigration policy in recent decades. Before welcoming a significant number of immigrants from outside Europe, Sweden’s immigration was relatively low, with an average of around 6,000 immigrants per year between 1871 and 1940, mostly from neighbouring countries such as Germany, Denmark, and Norway, who shared linguistic and cultural similarities with the native Swedish population.

Sweden enjoyed a high standard of living, a well-functioning welfare state, and a low crime rate. The society was tightly-knit, with shared values and a common purpose. However, with the entry of multiculturalism into Sweden’s political mainstream, the country began accepting refugees from non-European countries, leading to a substantial increase in the proportion of immigrants of non-European origin from 2% to 15% between 1985 and 2015.

 

The rapid change in Sweden’s immigration policy led to integration challenges, with many immigrants struggling to find employment and adapt to Swedish society. This transition resulted in higher crime rates, especially in marginalized immigrant communities, where criminal gangs often recruited young immigrants who felt excluded from society.

Sweden’s experience underscores the importance of finding a balance between celebrating diversity and ensuring social cohesion. It highlights the need for thoughtful immigration policies that promote integration and shared values while preserving a nation’s identity and security.

Economic Implications:

Unchecked migration can have significant economic consequences, especially when a considerable portion of immigrants face integration difficulties. Sweden’s economy, which was once robust, experienced changes as it opened its doors to immigrants from non-European countries. This influx of immigrants increased the demand for social services, putting a strain on public resources. Many immigrants relied on state assistance, adding a financial burden to the Swedish economy and diverting funds from crucial services like healthcare, education, and infrastructure development.

Sweden’s experience serves as a reminder of the importance of immigration policies that align with a nation’s economic needs. Policies should promote integration and self-sufficiency among immigrants to ensure their positive contribution to the economy, rather than relying solely on state support. Striking a balance between the economic benefits of immigration and potential economic strain is crucial for addressing the challenges posed by multiculturalism and migration.

 

Crime and Security Concerns:

Sweden’s experience illustrates how a lack of integration can contribute to higher crime rates. Criminal gangs, often composed of marginalized immigrant youths, have become more prevalent in the country, leading to security issues related to gang violence, drug trafficking, and organized crime. These issues not only pose security threats but also impact the overall quality of life in affected areas, raising concerns about public safety.

 

Social Division and Polarization:

The debate around multiculturalism in Sweden has exposed significant societal divisions and polarization. Different cultural groups may not share common values or understand each other’s perspectives, leading to social fragmentation. This division makes it challenging for Swedish society to find common ground on important issues, contributing to political polarization and impeding effective responses to social, political, and economic challenges.

 

The Need for Reform:

Sweden’s experience highlights the need for reform in addressing the consequences of unchecked migration and multiculturalism. Host countries must consider implementing comprehensive policies that prioritize integration, language and cultural education programs, and alignment with economic needs. Immigration should be calibrated to correspond with the nation’s goals, ensuring that immigrants are equipped to actively contribute to the workforce and overall prosperity.

 

Conclusion:

Sweden’s journey offers valuable lessons for nations worldwide grappling with the balance between celebrating diversity and ensuring social cohesion. Responsible and effective immigration policies are crucial, and Sweden’s experience underscores this fact.

The immigrants are of three kinds, in any country, in any historical period.

a) Good guys
b) Criminal elements
c) Hostile elements-spies

The a's are the big majority no doubt (but the wave of Bin-Ladenism after the nineties casts a doubt in this).
So it's a rather worrying prospect.
The racists at the same time are gathering strength and we are caught in the middle.

My grandfather from my mother's side was an immigrant. Fought in Flanders, gained American citizenship, was killed in an industrial accident a little later.
One of my uncle's was also an immigrant in Australia. That one was a war hero.
You know what he did ? He saved Papandreou from the Germans who were ready to transport him to Dachau.
In a kaik boat he crossed the German lines in the Aegean and reached Cairo.
From there Papandreou went to Lebanon to become head of the government in exile while my uncle joined the army and received an award from general Alexander.
Well, many Greeks think Papandreou did not deserve to be saved but anyway after the war Papandreou said to my uncle "you saved me, I owe you a big favour".
To this my uncle replied "fine, arrange with the Aussies a grade A visa for me and my family". He lived there to the age of 105.

Israel-Hamas at war: Israel's Ambassador to the UK

 

She has called the Nakba a lie. The Nakba describes the forced expulsion of 750,000 Palestinians by Zionist paramilitary groups from 1947 onwards. Around 600 Palestinian villages have since been wiped off the map in order to create a Jewish majority in Israel. Israeli historians have called this process “ethnic cleansing”. Despite volumes of evidence, Nakba denial has been mainstreamed by far-right Zionist groups. 

She is the grandaughter of Irgun terrorist

During the 1936–1939 Arab revolt in Palestine against the Mandatory Palestine, the militant Zionist group Irgun carried out 60 attacks against Palestinian people and the British Army.[1] Irgun was described as a terrorist organization by The New York Times,[2][3] the Anglo-American Committee of Enquiry,[4] prominent world figures such as Winston Churchill[5] and Jewish figures such as Hannah Arendt, Albert Einstein, and many others.

She has called the Nakba a lie. The Nakba describes the forced expulsion of 750,000 Palestinians by Zionist paramilitary groups from 1947 onwards. Around 600 Palestinian villages have since been wiped off the map in order to create a Jewish majority in Israel. Israeli historians have called this process “ethnic cleansing”.
