The UK and the European Union lack the unity and political will necessary to seriously obstruct another American war of imperialism

THE UNITED STATES will go to war with Iran if nothing is done to prevent it. This is the assumption that the world’s geopolitical actors have worked off for the better part of two decades, and there has been precious little evidence to the contrary.

While the UK Government has defended the legality of its latest intervention against the Syrian state, it has offered no response to the multiple, specific arguments that such action was illegal

IN THE AFTERMATH of the joint US/UK/French military strikes against targets within Syria last week – intended, according to Prime Minister Theresa May, to “degrade” the ability of the government of Bashar al-Assad to make use of chemical weapons – the UK Government has defended its actions as entirely legal, despite mounting evidence to the contrary.

Alex Salmond has joined Jeremy Corbyn in expressing doubt over who was responsible for the chemical weapons attack, despite Theresa May’s declarations of certainty over the Syrian Government’s culpability.

FORMER FIRST MINISTER Alex Salmond has stressed the importance of “letting the importance of international inspection complete before military action”, following Prime Minister Theresa May’s repeated assertion that responsibility for the chemical weapons attack in Douma lay with the Syrian Government.

SNP's Westminster foreign affairs spokesperson opts for Holyrood engagements

ALEX SALMOND, the SNP's Westminster foreign affairs spokesperson, missed the Prime Minister's announcement on plans for military intervention in Syria in order to attend events at the Scottish Parliament and unveil his own portrait for charity.

On Thursday (26 November) David Cameron outlined his plans for military action in Syria, centred around a bombing campaign against Daesh (Islamic State).

David Cameron has announced his "firm conviction" that airstrikes against Syria are necessary and is seeking to hold a vote in the Commons before Christmas.

THE PRIME MINISTER has claimed that a second vote on military action in Syria is reasonable if "consensus is reached" and talked of attacking the "head of the snake" by bombing Isis headquarters in Raqqa.

The Tunisian Prime Minister says UK military action is partially to blame for Libya's instability

TUNISIAN Prime Minister Habib Essid has stated that Libya's current turmoil has largely derived as a result of the foreign military intervention in 2011, which the UK played a leading role in.

The instability in Libya involves a split between an elected government in the Far East of the nation and the Islamist-led government that seized the capital together with various militias.
