Damon Joshua, an employee of Severn Trent Water Supply in the U.K., has been fired from his job due to a social media post he put up in observance of the one-year anniversary of the Hamas attack on innocent Israelis.

On Oct. 7, 2024, the sewage worker took to an employee website and characterized those who raped, tortured, mutilated, and murdered 1,200 Israelis as a “group of violent and disgusting terrorists.”

For mildly — one might say, timidly — stating an obvious truth, he was let go within hours.

Raping, torturing, mutilating, and murdering people is, to say the least, “violent.” Calling people who rape, torture, mutilate, and murder others, many of whom were women and children-- and all of whom were unsuspecting -- “disgusting” is a firing offense.

The Hamas terrorists did unspeakable things to mothers and their babies. And made others watch. “Disgusting” doesn’t begin to describe them.

Disgusting? Disgusting? That is a vile understatement. “Sick.” “Repulsive.” “Heinous.” “Satanic.” Any or all of these would be a better fit but would still not suffice. Would Damon have been fired had he called Lucifer “disgusting?” We know for sure that he wouldn’t have been fired had he called, say, Donald Trump or Christians “disgusting.”

The heads of Severn Trent Water Supply are “disgusting,” that is for sure.

Britain is lost. There is no peaceful way back, which means there is no way back.

Because racist thugs like Starmer made a business pandering to them. Like the Biden family pandered to the idiots who support Ukraine.

I’m beginning to think that arms smugglers should get active Western Europe. Although it may already be to late to save those people from the October 7th that is coming to them.
