SHARE Monday, November 18, 2024 Biden lifts restrictions now allowing missile strikes deep into Russian territory
According to Biden administration officials the president has lifted restrictions on the Zelensky regime in Ukraine to use ATACMS (Army Tactical Missile Systems) to strike deep into Russian territory. The move is a serious escalation of the war. It seems unprecedented such a move would be carried out by a lame duck administration. What's to gain by it? It will only bring more devastation to Ukraine w/out changing the outcome.
SHARE Saturday, November 16, 2024 Speculation of Trump's second coming
It's been 11 days since Trump won re-election. And speculation about his second coming is @ fever pitch. Yet speculation of what Trump may or not do is merely a forecast. Forget what he said during the campaign. It was campaign rhetoric. Even looking @ his major appointments it's still speculation of what influence they'll have on him & what he'll actually do. Trump is so unpredictable he still could change his mind on a whim.

Well there it is; Trump is victorious. Kamala Harris was terrible choice for the Dems. They should have held an open convention to find the best candidate against Trump. Instead they chose her after Biden's disastrous debate performance against Trump. Most women voted for her but men in the swing states voted for Trump. What we do know about Trump is he's unpredictable so be prepared for the next iteration of Trump.
SHARE Friday, October 25, 2024 Is war with Russia and China on the horizon?
Geo-politically the world has changed since the demise of the Soviet Union in 1991. What is most profound today is the US directly provoking Russia and China the world's two other nuclear weapons superpowers- something that was not done during the cold war- save for the Cuban Missile Crisis in 1962 which ended w/ the diplomacy of JFK & Soviet Premier Khrushchev. Is the US preparing for war against Russia & China?

Israel invaded Lebanon earlier today. W/ this invasion Israel could have very well set the region on fire. However, there is a way to stop the carnage. The UN Security Council should authorize a UN multi-dimensional military force to the Israeli, Lebanon border w/ the express purpose of stopping Israel's military campaign in Lebanon & formally notify the Israeli's after the Council's decision is made. The problem? A US veto.
SHARE Saturday, September 21, 2024 Is Israel intending to start a larger Middle East war?
Yesterday Israeli IDF fighter jets attacked Lebanon killing a top Hezbollah commander & some of his officers. This came after days earlier Israeli Mossad remotely detonated thousands of pagers Hezbollah uses to communicate killing 12 people & injuring thousands. The next day Hezbollah walkie-talkie's were detonated in the same fashion. Hezbollah leader Hassan Nesrallah described the attacks as a declaration of war.
SHARE Monday, September 9, 2024 12 days ago the Israeli IDF invaded northern Palestinian West Bank cities with thousands of troops
There's a story that's not made the headlines but should have been front page news. On August 28+ the IDF, Israeli Defense Force, began invading northern Palestinian West Bank cities w/ thousands of Israeli soldiers supported by helicopters and drones. It was reported Israeli forces killed 30 Palestinians including children. The brutality was not only Israeli military but also Jewish settlers attacking & killing Palestinians.
SHARE Friday, August 30, 2024 The IAEA inspects nuclear power plants in Ukraine yet places no blame when attacks on these facilities occur
The IAEA (International Atomic Energy Agency) has had its inspectors at the Zaporozhye nuclear power plant (in the formally held region of Ukraine now a part of Russia) since September, 2022. Over the past week drone strikes have occurred near the facility. There were reports a drone strike fell next to the plant's storage of spent fuel last week. The IAEA reports the attacks yet places no blame of who is authorizing them.

The International Olympic Committee (IOC) has completely lost its mind allowing a transgender boxer to compete against women born female. This occurred yesterday @ the Paris Olympics. It is a fact not open to conjecture. Someone born a male, went thru puberty as a male, is stronger, faster & quicker than someone born female. A transgender woman should never be allowed to compete in any sport against a biologically born female.
SHARE Wednesday, July 24, 2024 Kamala Harris is likely the Democrat nominee against Trump in November yet there is a red flag to her leadership ability
Kamala Harris is likely to be the Democrat nominee for President against Trump in November. There is a clue to her leadership skills which most people are unaware of. In the Summer of 2022 it was revealed more than 13 high profile aides had left the Vice President in less than a year. She apparently didn't trust most of her key staff as most chose to leave. That's a red flag to her leadership ability.
SHARE Sunday, July 7, 2024 In most people's perception Biden could not have fared worse in his debate with Trump
In the debate w/ Trump on June 27th Biden looked frail, stumbled as he spoke, hard to understand, was weak, confused & hesitant when speaking. He couldn't have fared worse. It's people's perception of the candidates is what counts; not the quality or lack thereof what they're saying. If Biden remains Trump's opponent in November the Dems may go down in flames. Lose the House & the Senate to the Repubs. They may never recover.
SHARE Friday, June 21, 2024 Is America fascist?
Is America fascist? In today's America the fascism is more subtle camouflaging itself outwardly embracing freedom and democracy and following international law but ignoring and disobeying them whenever it sees fit believing in its own omnipotence and doing whatever it wants, whenever it wants and won't be challenged. That is the American empire.
SHARE Tuesday, June 18, 2024 Putin is in North Korea meeting Kim Jong-Un. Tomorrow he's in Vietnam. The US is none too happy with his diplomacy
Russian Pres. Putin is in N. Korea meeting its leader Kim Jong-un. Tom'w Putin will visit Vietnam. The US is none too happy w/Putin's int'l forays. A US embassy spokesman in Hanoi said, "no country should give Putin a platform to promote his war of aggression, allow him to normalize his atrocities & blatant violations of int'l law". As if the US hasn't committed wars of aggression, commits torture & violations of int'l law.
SHARE Sunday, June 9, 2024 Freedom of speech in America is a mirage
Freedom of speech in America is a mirage. If one disagrees w/ "official" policy they're demonized. If they don't condemn Russian President Putin they're his apologist. If they're against sending $billions each year to Israel they're labeled as an anti-Semite. And if they support the Palestinian's under siege in Gaza they're condemned as a supporter of Hamas. What happened to abiding by the 1st Amendment of the Constitution?
SHARE Wednesday, May 29, 2024 The Washington Post reported Trump at a campaign event for donors said he'd have bombed Moscow if they attacked Ukraine
Yesterday the Washington Post reported @ a campaign event for donors Trump told them "he would have bombed Moscow if they would have attacked Ukraine and attack China if they moved to assert sovereignty over Taiwan. Trump's campaign dismissed the Post's report as "fake news". Trump is completely unpredictable. Yet despite his legal entanglements he'll still likely be the Republican nominee for president in November.
SHARE Tuesday, May 21, 2024 Yesterday President Biden said what is happening in Gaza is not genocide, yet it is just that
Yesterday President Biden @ the White House celebrating Jewish American Heritage referred to the situation in Gaza w/ the following, "Let's be clear, contrary to allegations against Israel, made by the International Court of Justice, what's happening is not genocide. We reject that." But when the Israeli Defense Force kills women, children & old people indiscriminately as it is doing in Gaza, that's genocide.
SHARE Saturday, May 11, 2024 The State Department report criticizing Israel stopped short of accusing Israel of specific violations in Gaza
The US State Department has released a report criticizing Israel in its war against Hamas in Gaza. Yet it stopped short of accusing Israel of any specific violations that would require the US to stop the flow of weapons to the Israeli's. Thus there's little wonder why the Israeli assault in Gaza continues unabated with no end in sight.
SHARE Tuesday, April 30, 2024 Why are the Constitutionally protected rights of peaceful assembly being violated by police on US college campuses?
It is appalling to see student protesters against the Israeli siege of Gaza being brutally beaten, dragged off and arrested by police on US college campuses nationwide. Why are the Constitutionally protected rights to peaceful assembly being violated by police on these college campuses? What are the students demanding other than an immediate cease fire in Gaza and the US stop funding the Israeli war machine.
SHARE Friday, April 19, 2024 Early this morning Israel Attacked Iran as well as military airfields and radar sites in Syria and Iraq
In the early hours today Israel attacked Iran as well as military airfields in Syria & Iraq. This latest attack came days after Iran sent missiles & drones into Israel in retaliation of Israel attacking the Iranian consulate building n Damascus, Syria. What is worrisome at this point these retaliatory strikes by Israel & Iran could lead to a Middle East conflagration w/ worldwide implications.
SHARE Monday, April 1, 2024 Political foolishness has reached its zenith in America
Political foolishness has reached its zenith in America with Pres.Biden proclaiming Easter Sunday as "Trans Day of Visibility". A lot of Christians took umbrage w/ the president ignoring Easter. Didn't Biden's inner circle realize most people in America refer to themselves as Christian? Why not express the nation as becoming all inclusive, rejecting all discrimination against anyone as being un American. And leave it @that.
