Mark Hamill once again reminds everyone he’s the real Jedi as he shares his stance on Donald Trump’s war

Like many people, Mark Hamill is having some severe deja vu. A Republican president has cooked up some flimsy excuse to contain America in a war in the Center East, is telling wild tales of secret weapon programmes we should cease instantly, and is now floating the prospect of a regime change that’ll 100% positively for real no kidding lead to peace, prosperity, and democracy. We promise!

Yup, it’s the early 2000s throughout again! Longtime critic of Trump and all-time film icon Hamill, is predictably, not right here for this. Taking to BlueSky, he stated:

“I hate once I go to mattress early on a Saturday night time and get up Sunday morning solely to find we’ve gone to war in the Center East with out the consent of Congress.”

I hate once I go to mattress early on a Saturday night time and get up Sunday morning solely to find we’ve gone to war in the Center East with out the consent of Congress. 😡

That is truthful sufficient, although the most bog-standard “Hollywood liberal” response potential. Trump’s assault over the weekend was obscene and pointless – and would have been obscene and pointless with or with out Congressional sign-off!

Mark, buddy, in case your primary objection is that Trump merely didn’t get the correct kind stuffed out earlier than launching his disastrous bombing strike on Iran, you would possibly must verify your priorities.

Keep on with wars an extended, very long time in the past

And anyway, at this level, Hamill is standing on some fairly skinny ice in relation to commenting on American overseas coverage. In spite of everything, again in 2023, Hamill proudly acknowledged that “America stands with Israel. ALWAYS”:

Idiotic jingoism like that is exactly what bought us to the level of Trump launching bunker-buster bombs into Iran and bringing the world to the fringe of World War 3. Unquestioning assist of Israel irrespective of what number of civilians they obliterate, irrespective of what number of neighboring international locations they assault, and irrespective of how overtly genocidal their politicians and leaders are, is the actual motive why Trump was so overtly manipulated by Netanyahu into becoming a member of his war.

Hamill later walked again his “ALWAYS” stance barely in 2024 by claiming “I fully support Gaza/Palestine” however, as many identified, that’s successfully a nothing assertion that doesn’t imply something. In spite of everything, if he’s now important of Israel then have the guts to come back out and say that!

Mark Hamill looks like a pleasant man and I suppose his coronary heart is in the proper place. However in relation to politics – particularly overseas coverage – he ought to possibly preserve his confused and ill-defined opinions to himself from now on.
