Israel: Ceasefires, humanitarian pauses, and related absurdities including when President Biden will be asked to condemn his own party

The New York Times effectively calls for Hamas to apologize on national TV, world governmental bodies have no interest in justice and no means to deal with Hamas, the Biden Administration wants to pause the fighting to resupply the enemy, and no one in the mainstream media wants to talk about the antisemitism rampant in… Continue reading Israel: Ceasefires, humanitarian pauses, and related absurdities including when President Biden will be asked to condemn his own party

The world is at war in slow motion, until it isn’t

There is a sense of watching some sad tragicomedy unfold, wondering what unexpected and unanticipated catastrophe will happen next, oblivious to the reality that – as at the start of World War I – we might literally be one bullet away from worldwide destruction.  On June 28, 1914, Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria and his… Continue reading The world is at war in slow motion, until it isn’t

Free speech dies in federal court when an out of control judge takes aim at former President Trump and every American citizen

There is little more fundamental a right than the ability of voters to listen to completely unfettered Presidential candidates before making their own personal choice.  In a sense, Judge Chutkan has abridged the rights of every American to decide – for themselves and in and of themselves – who to vote for and why. “Mr.… Continue reading Free speech dies in federal court when an out of control judge takes aim at former President Trump and every American citizen

The media provides material support to terrorists and should be investigated under the Patriot Act

Multiple prominent media organizations including The New York Times knew exactly what they were doing when they broadcast Hamas’ claim that Israeli conducted an airstrike on a hospital.

Israel: Get ready for the progressive backlash to go mainstream

The over/under could be as little as a week, when all our claims of unity with Israel go up in the smoke.  Whatever President Biden may say today, he hasn’t the stomach to oppose key members of his party, his movement, and a global government apparatus that has long ago decided Israel is to blame. … Continue reading Israel: Get ready for the progressive backlash to go mainstream

I could be bounded in a nutshell, Shakespeare’s genius in three cryptic phrases

In one sense, Hamlet spins out the statement in a play of words, not intended to have any logical meaning, but to confuse his audience, hiding his real thoughts beneath the mask of insanity.  In another, it contains the meaning of the entire play and Macbeth besides. O God, I could be bounded in a… Continue reading I could be bounded in a nutshell, Shakespeare’s genius in three cryptic phrases

Israel: If not Iran, who funded the attack and why does President Biden refuse to say it?

To his credit, the President delivered a moving speech on the atrocities, even as some in his own party openly support the Palestinians and believe the slaughter in Israel was justified, but no one in his administration has yet to clearly identify Iran’s pivotal role. “You know, there are moments in this life — and… Continue reading Israel: If not Iran, who funded the attack and why does President Biden refuse to say it?

Hillary Clinton can deprogram this

Rarely, does a single interview capture so much of what is wrong with our politics today, highlighting both the deep denialism of supposedly mainstream Democrats and further cementing that party as one completely adrift from anything resembling traditional American principles of government.  Last week, two time presidential loser and perennial election denier Hillary Clinton re-entered… Continue reading Hillary Clinton can deprogram this

Biden’s third war in three years makes this the worst foreign policy ever

At every turn, President Biden has chosen a path that prioritizes talk over action, believing that countries saying they are for something is the same as actually achieving that something, and has failed to deliver actual progress while the world continues to burn. This weekend, President Joseph R. Biden, Jr. completed a tragic trifecta the… Continue reading Biden’s third war in three years makes this the worst foreign policy ever
