"A year ago, here in France, I compared Trump's presidency to Nero's Court," Malhuret began. "I was wrong – it's the miracle court. An anti-vaxxer, former heroin addict as minister of health [Robert F. Kennedy Jr.], a climate skeptic minister of economy [Scott Bessent], an alcoholic TV anchor, minister of the armed forces [Pete Hegseth], an old Qatar agent, minister of justice [Pam Bondi], a groupie of Putin, minister of national security [Tulsi Gabbard]."

"A Turkish proverb says, 'When a clown settles in a palace, he does not become king, it is the palace that becomes a circus," Malhuret continued. "This great team has decided to create a competitor to the UN. Since the creation of the Board of Peace, Trump has triggered more military strikes than Biden during his entire term."

"Every time the Epstein affair resurfaces, bombs explode somewhere in the world and cause a distraction," he added. "Bomb more to win more."

Our allies having no respect for us and have a strong history of what kings are.

He loses even more soft power?

[–] Know_not_Scotty_does@lemmy.world 6 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I mean, soft power doesn't really matter to a dictator that insists on using hard power.

[–] FaceDeer@fedia.io 8 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Except that suddenly he's realizing that soft power did matter, as he casts about looking for anyone to help him out of this mess he's got himself into in Iran.

[–] doc@fedia.io 5 points 2 days ago

It's charitable of you to think that he's connected those dots.

[–] tomiant@piefed.social 3 points 2 days ago

I love being part of the production server he is learning how to use a computer on.

[–] Skullgrid@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago

He doesn't lose soft power, the US loses soft power.

I think it’s better to mark this as a potential turning of the tide. The more this sort of talk from other countries government officials, the bolder others will hopefully become. If the world begins a united shunning of the US and Israel it would be a win

They certainly do. Most of our European allies still have literal kings, and almost all of them are 100% controlled by Israel just like the US. Heck, many of them will send their own citizens to jail or prison merely for criticizing Israel. Talk is cheap but governments actually willing to stand up to the United States of Israel are few & far between. About the only country I have respect for in Europe right now is Spain. Macron merely talks like he opposes some actions by Israel to his people, but then cordially meets with Netanyahu & parrots his talking points when push comes to shove. His handler student-groomer Brigette is no better.

Okay, I've heard this before, but why does Israel have so much power over these countries? I've seen evidence that they do over the US, but I haven't really looked into other countries. I'm seriously asking what your opinion is, why does a small country in the Levant have so much power over huge economies?

[–] hitmyspot@aussie.zone 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

You mean Spain and Sweden that pushed to recognise genocide and Palestinian statehood? That kind of power? Germany has deep guilt about WW2. Israel has outsized influence but not the owned politicians like in the USA.

[–] pelespirit@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I'm not trying to have a fight with anyone, just trying to understand and have a discussion.

[–] hitmyspot@aussie.zone 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Yes, and I was adding to the conversion, more addressing the poster above you.

However to limp all of Europe as one entity of monarchies and Israeli influence is disingenuous. Misguided at best, propaganda at worst.

Israel is abusing its relationship and historical persecution of Jews to allow them to persecute others, including with genocide. They are (quietly) expanding into Lebanon while people are looking elsewhere. The ceasefire in Gaza still kills Palestinians with frequent Israeli actions.

The whole war seems to be at their behest and the involvement of Iran is directly linked to their bombing of Iran 2 years ago. However, Iran is also the supporter of much of he resistance against their genocidal actions. As it was mainly carried out in a terrorist/guerrilla type fashion, Israel's view os that they have no choice but to act. It's obviously concerning that no government in the west seems concerned that they claim valid cause to have violent relations with every neighbour.

They shriek about nuke development while not being a party to nuclear disarmament treaties and having their own nukes. It's disingenuous but works for propaganda purposes. They claim the un is biased and lacks authority, glossing over the fact that the creation of Israel was via un processes.

In the case of Europe, the monarchies that are mentioned don't hold power and are mostly ceremonial. As an Irish person, I'm completely against the idea of inherited authority and wealth of nations, but the USA seems to give more authority to their ordained families. Look at the head of healthcare. If he wasn't a Kennedy, do you think a former heroin addict vaccine conspiracy theorist who thinks autistic people should be in work camps would be a potential leader in any other country?

To be fair, this isn't normal and crazy for everyone but the diehard magas. The Kennedy's were all democrats, I have no idea how the magas adopted them.

[–] hitmyspot@aussie.zone 1 points 2 days ago

It is normal for a Kennedy to walk into a political position, though. Maga just magnifies the problem. They didn't create it.
