Trump Rolls Over for a New War

Do dumb things and then lie about it It is generally believed that American voters elected Donald Trump president at least in part due to their embracing his lies that he was a peacemaker who would not involve the United States in the pointless wars that have proliferated since 9/11. Trump’s predecessor the hapless Genocide […]

Trump Takes America to War

The attack on Iran will lead to endless and pointless slaughter There is a somewhat troublesome backstory to President Donald Trump’s glorification of how Saturday’s US forces attack on three Iranian nuclear sites that “completely obliterated” their targets was carried out without any declaration of war against a country that has not attacked and was not […]

“Bad Things” Happen in Washington

Will this idiocy ever end? There were quite a lot of what Donald Trump might describe as “bad things” taking place in Washington over the past week, to include the worsening of relations with China shortly after what appeared to be an agreement had been reached over tariffs; the arrival at an apparent impasse in negotiations with […]

Remember America’s Dead on the USS Liberty

Israel is no friend and never has been one It often pays, literally, to be perceived as a perpetual victim, a status that Israel and the Jewish institutional constituency have exploited relentlessly since 1945. It is now eighty years since the Second World War ended and the numbers of those receiving “holocaust” reparations from the […]

Nuclear War Ala Mode?

Trump and Netanyahu conspire to destroy Iran One of the more interesting aspects of the expanding war between Israel and Iran is the way the media and the crowd of “experts” have avoided any discussion of the possible, or perhaps even likely, upcoming decision of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to dig deep into his secret […]

Making Palestine Go Away

The US and Europe give Netanyahu a green light for ethnic cleansing It has been another exciting week in a world at war where the word “diplomacy” has no meaning and would probably be defined by America’s head of Homeland Security Kristi Noem as a doctrine in which you shoot someone first before he or […]

The Magical Mystery Tour That Wasn’t

Trump has mixed results in both the Middle East and with Russia and Ukraine It has been an interesting few days with the United States renaming the Gulf of Mexico and Persian Gulf while also doubling down on spying directed against Greenland in expectations that it will be acquired as a US territory sometime soon. […]

The Suppression of Christianity in Its Birthplace

Israel is no friend to Jesus My rewrite of the famous quote by Lord Palmerston regarding “interests” to have it reflect the reality of Israel and its powerful friends would go something like this: “I say that it is a narrow policy to suppose that Israel is to be marked out as the eternal ally […]

More Exciting News from the White House

Donald Trump has appointed a Jewish community liaison officer I know that those who read my articles will be interested to learn that President Donald Trump has appointed Martin Marks to be his administration’s liaison to the American Jewish community with the title Special Assistant to the President and Director of Jewish Engagement in the White House […]

Are You Tired of Hearing About Antisemitism?

Simply stop killing Gazans and the anger directed at Jews might end One might well ask how a group composed of little more than 3% of the US population has managed to gain control of the nation’s foreign policy, its legislature and executive branches, its media, its entertainment industry, its financial institutions, and its elite […]
