There is such a larger picture at stake here even the experts are not sure about anything! Some say it was deliberate so the US could start a war with Iran! The possibilities right now are innumerable. The other side of that coin is that it's been reported (although I can't find the article or video) the IDF actually wound up killing a large percentage of Israel's on that day.

Please everyone stop using acronyms. It does not help people to understand. I believe this is a ploy by Govt. to misdirect us.

Spell the words out.

The whole world is NOT American.

YES. I do believe this concerning Iran.

One thing the Americans don't know about Iran is:

They are well educated. They know their History.

I expect Biden to announce war against Iran any day.

The Persian people were scholars/artists/thinkers.

There's been some really great interviews which back up what you're saying - although they also say Iran will not get involved with this war and did not know about October 7th nor did they plan it. Charlie Rose just did two excellent interviews - which I highly recommend to all

Thanks for this reply.

I am not optimistic.

I do not have a TV or 'phone. I rely on substack and French news. + The Guardian (which by the way took a huge HIT )in England from false info.

The Guardian is no slouch.

As for Iran:

Joe Biden is losing in the polls.

To my mind this will mean war. IF the US takes on Iran they will lose.

Americans know no World History this is why it has become a defunct super power.

The 'sheep elite liberals' who still vote Biden are the biggest problem for the US

Eventually Europe will 'grow a spine.'

At present we have Marine Le Pen and believe me compared to American facists she is centre right.

One of the best things about French politics is: Separation of Religion and state.

After all the Religious Wars we will NEVER bow down to Religion.

Having said this. I wonder why Nuns are able to wear their nun's clothing while denying French Muslims (in schools) to wear headscarves.

We are all confused by our Governments.

It seems we are heading towards annihilation of the Earth.

I really am so tired and exhausted of fighting the right to live our lives.

You couldn't be more right on everything you just said. I too do not own a tv nor have I for over 25 years I too also spend my life reading Substack and a few others!! It is truly unfathomable that everything barrels down to money! How much human life needs to be shed so this scum in Washington can continue to prosper from the Jewish donations? The best was Tulsi Gabbard who instead of defending Israel outright she went on a tangent against Hamas There are no words to describe the world today how we have no regard for human life none whatsoever - I'd love to see them accept the donations from the Jews with a picture of the children that have been murdered! How do you possibly do that? How could you possibly accept money let alone support Israel? Just so you can stay in office? How is it not one of them can stand up to them? At this point I'm all for wiping Israel off the map!

Dear BJ

I am the last to condemn you for your last comment BUT it is not OK.

Thousands of people in Israel were demonstrating in the streets against Netanyahu. They did not want a facist right wing government. Please, these are young people with mothers and fathers and grandparents. Don't let your anger control you because of ONE man.

As to the 'scum' in Washington.

In the USA the people ALLOWED this to happen (even you) I suspect?

When you were following the propagandist 'American Dream' while your Country decimated others in the name of Democracy. You were happy. your needs were met. You bought Chinese goods/never voted. Your education and welfare is abysmal.

As long as you were happy you did NOT care what your Government was doing.

When 9/11 happened I was there in California and I felt so sick. Out came the American flags. US has never suffered a real war. This was YOUR comeuppance for meddling in other county's in the name of Democracy.

We left the USA when GWBush got in. We saw the writing on the wall.

IF the US now will be in a Civil War it is because you didn't give a shit about the wars you engaged in.

You may be like me. I am a nature lover and the world is doing it's best to destroy our planet.

With empathy to you

Jenny

You're right! I am angry but it's not only about this it's about everything! The complete and total degradation of society! I blame everything on the cells phones! Never have we lived in a more narcissistic world then today! Everywhere you go people have the in their hand. The only thing they care about is themselves. It's all about me!! It was a deliberate diversion and intentional dumbing down of society and it certainly worked!

BTW I do not vote never did nor will. I refuse to support and enable the massive corruption malfeasance subterfuge and cronyism! I do however follow politics religiously just to keep track of the extensiveness of the lies. They don't even hide it anymore! Now it's just gaslighting!

We live in a completely lawless society and have no regard for human life! How any people were murdered because of Covid and how many more were killed because of the injections? How many Ukrainians were sent to their death for a proxy war? How many more will die in the Middle East? How could you even think about bringing children into this world today? A human life today means nothing!!!

You're right about 9-11. Here's some inside information. I volunteered at Ground Zero for a month. Three days after 9-11 people reverted right back to their usual solipsistic selves!! We have gone so far off the edge there is no coming back from any of this!
