Iran’s videos of its missiles attacking Israel include one of a fire in Chile months ago (portrayed as an Iranian missile hitting an Israeli military base) and a Russian rocket (not an Iranian one) being fired ten years ago. Pathetic and only fit for domestic consumption.

Some people are commenting that Britain has two prime ministers—Sunak for domestic, Cameron for foreign affairs. Trouble is that both suck.
