If there is a dubious silver lining to the US-Israel war against Iran, it is the utter ignorance fuelled by the fuel of racism and hubris. What was supposed to take a few days has evolved into a costly war that appears to end up giving the US its biggest military defeat since 1945.
US President Donald Trump lies so much that it is difficult to separate fact from fiction. His latest Jesus stunt is a further reminder that the US has lost the war.
The war that Trump and Israel have waged against Iran is being watched closely by many. Some hope that the US will lose because it would put an end to Washington’s reckless might-is-right gunboat policy. Israel has also gone too far by bombing, killing, and committing genocide.

Jos haluat esimerkin Suomen myötäsukaisesta ja hampaattomasta ulkopolitiikasta kansainvälistä kiusaajaa, kuten Yhdysvaltain presidenttiä Donald Trumpia, kohtaan, kuuntele puolustusministeri Antti Häkkänenn (kokoomus) lausuntoja. Ei pidä myöskään unohtaa ulkoministeri Elina Valtonenta (kokoomus), jonka sanat ja vakuuttelut ovat menettäneet uskottavuutensa.
Kysyttäessä Trumpin ja Netanjahun uhkauksista tuhota Iranin infrastruktuuria jos Hormuzin salmea ei avata, Häkkänen ei kertaakaan maininnut, että kyse olisi sotarikoksista.
– Kansainvälisessä oikeudessa on tietyt rajoitteet, ja he varmasti arvioivat, mitkä kohteet listalle otetaan seuraavaksi, hän totesi tuomitsematta Trumpin suunnitelmia.
Reaktio muistuttaa hämmästyttävän paljon Suomen hallituksen reaktiota Israelin sotarikoksiin Gazassa.
Suomen ulkopolitiikka on häpeällistä ja pelkurimaista. Se on myös opportunistista, koska siinä uskotaan, että se, mitä Iranissa tapahtuu, ei voi tapahtua meille.
Finland was the first country in Europe to grant women the right to vote in 1906. This is true, but it is only half of the story: Finnish women were granted the right to pass on their citizenship to their children (jus sanguinis)only in 1984, that is, 66 years after independence!
The amendment to the Citizenship Act (HE 43/1984) entered into force on 1 September 1984 with the support of Parliament, as well as that of President Mauno Koivisto and Minister of the Interior Matti Luttinen, also a Social Democrat.
Apart from the 63 women MPs at the time, which amounted to 31.5% of all lawmakers, men MPs pushed for a change in the Act.
Finland had already amended the Citizenship Act of 1920 by allowing a child of a Finnish mother to acquire Finnish citizenship if the father was unknown.
However, women in Europe did not have a general right to pass on their citizenship to their children. The situation began to change after the Second World War, when several countries, such as France, Spain, and Italy, granted women equal citizenship rights. Between 1970 and 1990, many European countries reformed their legislation.
The restriction was far from harmless. For example, I could not obtain Finnish citizenship because only my mother was Finnish. This meant that I had to do my military service in Argentina during the so-called Dirty War, one of the most violent periods in the country’s history, during which around 30,000 people disappeared. My life would have been very different if I had had the right to Finnish citizenship.
What makes the issue even more interesting is that Finland was a country of emigration between 1860 and 1999, during which approximately 1.2 million Finns moved abroad. In addition to being a clear case of gender discrimination, one may ask: did the authorities fear that foreign men would “take” Finnish women and that so-called “mixed-race” children would be born?
Finland used to be a country of emigration. Before the Second World War, most of the emigration was to North America. After World War 2 most Finns moved to Sweden.
Whatever the case, Finland should give an apology to women and those children who were discriminated because of the law.
Suomi oli ensimmäinen maa Euroopassa ja kolmas maailmassa, joka myönsi naisille äänioikeuden vuonna 1906. Tämä pitää paikkansa, mutta se on vain puolet tarinasta: suomalaisille naisille annettiin oikeus siirtää (jus sanguinis)kansalaisuus lapselleen vasta vuonna 1984, eli 66 vuotta itsenäistymisen jälkeen.
Kansalaisuuslain muutos (HE 43/1984) tuli voimaan 1. syyskuuta 1984 eduskunnan tuella sekä presidentti Mauno Koiviston ja sisäasiainministeri Matti Luttinenn, molemmat sosialidemokraateja, myötävaikutuksella.
Sen lisäksi, että naispuolisia kansanedustajia oli tuolloin 63, mikä vastasi 31,5 % kaikista kansanedustajista, miespuoliset kansanedustajat ajoivat lain muuttamista.

Even if far-right politicians of the Perussuomalaiset (PS) were yelling victory because the city of Vantaa had prohibited – according to them – the niqab and burqa, it was a now-you-see-it-now-you-don’t moment.
Even if PS politicians said the prohibition was aimed at the niqab and burqa, the Vantaa school district denies this. “The policy applies to covering the face during the school day, meaning that students are not allowed to cover their faces with any type of clothing or mask,” said Tua Tähkapää, a communications specialists for the city of Vantaa, who replied to Migrant Tales’ questions sixteen days later.
Tähkäpää continues: “The city of Vantaa has not banned the wearing of any specific type of clothing. It would be against the law to ban, for example, specifically the niqab or burqa. The policy applies to covering the face during the school day, meaning a student may not cover their face with any type of clothing or mask. We are not aware of any complaints.”
If the measure by the city of Vantaa was not singling out Muslims, why wasn’t this mentioned in the first stories?
PS Finance Minister Riikka Purra exposes the final aim of the prohibition”…the PS wants to prohibit the niqab and burqa in Finland and everyone.”
The policy in Vantaa, which is epxected to be adapted in Espoo and Tampere comprhensive schools, follows a debate about face-covering clothing in public schools. The imatter got national attention last year when some politicians especially from the PS and National Coalition Party raised the possibility of in broader restrictions on the usage of the burqa and niqab.
If you want a shameful example of appeasement to the Trump administration’s and Israel’s war crimes, Foreign Minister Elina Valtonen is a terrible example. In the face of the ethnic cleansing in Gaza by Israel, her most infamous quote is that “Israel has a right to defend itself.”
But what could you expect when the prime minister and president are members of the National Coalition Party?
Foreign Minister Valtonen was on A-Talk Monday and she was asked by the reporter her opinion about the illegal war waged by the US and Israel against Iran.
“For us Finns, it is important that international law works,” she said, and then the reporter asked her if he thought it was politically ok that the US and Israel have waged an illegal war against Iran. Her answer revealed her ideological bankruptcy: “I cannot give you a straight answer.”

Former US intelligence oficer, Josephine Guilbeau, says in a moving speech how the attack by the US on the Minab elementary school in southern Iran, which caused the death of some 170 children, was an act of terrorism.
Stating that the US’ and Israel’s war against Iran is a failure is a gross understatement. The hubris and bellicose styles of President Donald Trump and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu have caused suffering but could also be blessings in disguise.
Twenty-nine days have passed since the US and Israel unleashed their bombs and death on Iranians. Both, intoxicated with their hubris, believed that only a surgical strike would do the job. Murder the supreme leader, Ali Khamenei, and the country’s leadership would capitulate.
After 29 days, Iran has not crumbled but has offered stiff resistance and wreaked havoc in the Middle East. On the contrary, and in the face of a land invasion that many claim will end in disaster, public opinion has shifted towards Iran.
In my native Argentina, the hubris of the military regime was the first clear indication that it was dying, and, eventually, had to relinquish power and call elections.
In the Middle East we are seeing a similar matter. Trump and Netnyahu, whose actions reveal their racism and hatred for Muslims, believed that their superior air power would do the job.
It didn’t but instead has made the global economy vulnerable and put it on the precipice of a deep recession.
What will be the political outcome of the war? One of these could spell the end of US hegemony in the region and the end of corrupt Gulf State kingdoms like Oman, UAE, Qatar, Bahrain, Saudi Arabia and Kuwait. All of these states would see their present corrupt leaders ejected from power.

Where would that leave Israel? With Netanyahu behind bars, it could lead to a new era where Israel would learn to live with its Arab neighbors. The gesture of hope and peace would permit the birth of a long-overdue Palestinian state.
Building peace is a long path and we must begin that task now.
The recent parliamentary election in Denmark, one of Europe’s most Islmophobic countries, was a rude awakening to its Social Democratic Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen, who thought she could capitalize with the row over Greenland with the United States. Her party lost 12 MPs to receive only 21.85% of the vote compared to 27.54% in 2022.
Even if Federikson is a Social Democrat, her immigration policy is Islamophobic.
It is a sweet irony that while she has warned about Islamization, it was actually a white supremacist US adminitration that posed the greater threat to national security by wanting to take over Greenland.
“Media and politicians, including Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen, Frederik Vad, and Ida Auken, contributed to a public discourse in which Muslims’ motives and loy- alties were openly questioned. Key figures such as Eva Gregersen and Thomas Hoff- mann played central roles in monitoring and casting suspicion on Muslims and their civic engagement.”
If anything, the result proves that there is a certain saturation point for Islamophobic policies and campaigns.
It will be interesting to see how much the Perussuomalaiset (PS)* capitalize on their aggressive and hostile campaign against Muslims and other migrants.
On selvää, että hallituksen maahanmuuttopolitiikka on epäonnistunut, jos esimerkiksi Elinkeinoelämän keskusliitto (EK) toteaa Ylellä, että Suomen pitäisi poistaa saatavuusharkinta sekä vaatimus maasta poistumisesta, jos työntekijä irtisanotaan eikä löydä työtä kolmen kuukauden kuluessa. Jälkimmäistä määräaikaa tulisi pidentää kahdeksaan kuukauteen, EK mukaan.
Yksityinen, voittoa tavoittelematon taloustutkimuslaitos ETLA totesi, että Suomi tarvitsisi vuosittain nettomääräisesti 44 000 ulkomaalaista työvoimapulan kattamiseksi.
Näiden tietojen jälkeen Yle esitti videon, jossa nähtiin, kuinka työttömät ulkomaalaiset Tanskassa – joka on yksi EU:n islamofobisimmista maista – joutuvat tekemään vapaaehtoistyötä saadakseen sosiaalietuuksia.
Ylen tanskalaisessa videossa on se ongelma, että siinä oletetaan, että ulkomaalaiset ovat rodullistettuja ja työttömiä. Maahanmuuttajat ovat monimuotoinen ryhmä, joka koostuu monenlaisista ihmisistä.
Perussuomalaiset (PS)* -puolueen valtiovarainministeri Riikka Purra ehdotti äskettäin, että myös Suomessa työttömät ulkomaalaiset pitäisi pakottaa tekemään vapaaehtoistyötä saadakseen sosiaalietuuksia.
Tällaisia ehdotuksia on tarkasteltava varovasti, kun otetaan huomioon, että vuoden 2027 eduskuntavaalit ovat noin vuoden päässä.
PS-poliitikkojen vihamielisiä viestejä lukiessa on selvää, että he herättelevät Suomen rasistisia virtauksia saadakseen äänestäjiä.
Aivan kuten monet PS:n ehdottamat syrjivät ja rasistiset toimet ovat olleet perustuslain vastaisia. Perustuslain 6 § kieltää etuuskohtelun.
Alla on jälleen yksi Purran kepponen, jolla hän yrittää perustella jo kumottua väitettä, että maahanmuuttajat ovat pahoja ja uhka Suomelle.
