Luxon’s trainwreck interview defending invasion of Iran
In his response to the US and Israel’s bombing of Iran, Prime Minister Christopher Luxon suggested his defence policy is something of the opposite – the foreign policy equivalent of Homer Simpson quietly retreating into the bushes.
No one expects a New Zealand Prime Minister to be able to lecture on the history of the Middle East. Helen Clark was perhaps the last of them. Our politics is weighted towards domestic issues and it breeds politicians whose gaze looks inward, rather than outward.
But taking questions on his Monday morning media round, and later at his post-Cabinet press conference, Luxon struggled to articulate where New Zealand stood on the conflict, what it meant for the country today, and the world in which New Zealanders live.
You have to see it to believe it, he tripped over himself so many times trying to avoid the question that he may as well have done the interview from the floor.
This is an illegal war, this Government have sucked up to Israeli and American war criminals as their starting point and then blame those our war criminals are attacking.
It is more important to this Government to criticise Palestinians and Iranians than Americans and Israelis.
Watching the fear in Luxon’s eyes as he slipped over and over and over again on why NZ was supporting the attack on Iran needs to be mocked ruthlessly.
This is our leader, a war criminal apologist.
How proud we must all be of National, ACT and NZFs moral cowardice.
Jesus wept, talk about a stunned mullet. This inept, walking example of the Peter Principle is our Prime Minister!
Christopher Luxon is a blessed servant of the Almighty and a true God fearing warrior, anointed by the Holy Spirit Himself and standing unyielding on the RIGHT SIDE OF HISTORY as he pledges his allegiance to the American administration in the removal of the terrorist leaders of the Iranian regime.
Only the ENEMIES OF FREEDOM who are slithering serpents in the shadows, agents of Satan himself, would dare oppose this righteous war, for it is the Lord’s own battle against the forces of darkness!
New Zealand must awaken from our slumber! We must dispatch our valiant military brethren forthwith, marching arm in arm with the United States and Israel, God’s chosen instruments, to unleash the glorious floodgates of FREEDOM and DEMOCRACY upon the oppressed Iranian souls! Let the trumpets sound, for the End Times draw near, and victory belongs to the Lamb of God! HALLELUJAH
Gee Zelda, you’ve still got your invisible friend you had when you were three
Now that,Zelda was a masterful response, clearly depicting the idiocy, the superinflated religious fanatacism ,the ignorance ,the brutality ,the utter inhumanity of the bloated protaganists in this illegal war on Iran.
Satire at it’s best!
