Trump is right about one thing... "When crazy people have a nuclear weapon, bad things happen." That's what I am really afraid of... Mizz Izzy has nukes.
Everyone knows the Open Secret that Israel has nukes and isnt regulated nor do they obey any rules... big surprise.
Will Mizz Izzy's psychotic- mad dog behavior end in a nuke?
That Mizz Izzy is the REAL Murderous Regime that has WMDs and is terrorizing the Planet with her EPSTEIN CLASS Attack Dog, Uncle Sam?
Yep, it's truly horrendous what Israel get away with. If they go for Samson option a lot of us are going to get hit, that's how they've got it rigged, nuclear weapons pointing at all countries they can reach, which is most.
I doubt Netanyahu and his crime gang are so keen to take themselves out as they say, more a case of, do what we ask or we'll press the button. Big bullies at heart as well as evil.
Interesting. From what I have read on the subject israel has only short range nuclear missiles on it's few submarines and most of it's nuclear weapons are nuclear aircraft dropped bombs. 200 weapons are what is mentioned.
The secret is not so secret if I knew about this in the 70s. I wrote a story Super Gun a space accelerator, at the time helping to build the most powerful accelerator in the world ha. Neutron showers anyone : (
It would be better if that was the case, not good but better.
They have between 200 and 400 underground ready for Operation Samson. I doubt in reality it will be used but if it is, a lot of us won't know much about it.
I asked my 6-year old son, who is the strongest boy in your class? He pointed out the tinyest and thinest one. I asked why him? And my son saId; because he is the most cruel.
I am glad he's found that out already because I agree with him, casting my mind a long time back, yet it also applies to some work situations, it is the child whose big and a bit overweight, or has say a scar or birthmark on their face that the weediest looking child could bully .
Great Question. It seems the betting public is betting heavy on nuclear weapons use. Seems I say this all the time now, I would not even entertain that thought four years ago, now I think it's 50/50 with israel/u.s. losing the war on Iran.
They've always "got it" but they have to be willing to go the so called diplomatic route or can you imagine the excuses that gives the West to lie about them. They know exactly how the US behave, I mean you only have to look at the past 25 years to see that.
This time they will not stop the fighting because it's about their very existence of their people and land. The twelve day war last year they stopped because only Israel was involved except for a quick visit from the US, and they possibly hoped after twelve days Israel would behave for a while. It did. No point of fighting Israel into the ground when you know US will be back.
1. Iran is a democratic Republic with an excellent Constitution that the people respect and follow. Every office, small to large, has free and fair elections. The Ayatollah is chosen by a committe.
2. Iran, unlike, Israel, is NOT a terrorist state.
3. The Ayatollah was a brilliant and lovely, kind person who loved the citizens and did his best for them They loved him back.
4. There's absolute coherence in the Iranians gathering around the defense of their country. When you hear otherwise, it's the CIA in your ear. [BTW, the CIA took down the trade towers, with approval of the FBI.]
5. The Iranians have expected and prepared for this war for nearly 50 years. They were ready for it.
6. The Iranians made a fatwah in 2003 against having nuclear weapons and they have kept that promise. I wish they had them because Israel has 250 nuclear warheads, enough to destroy the world, and they will before losing to Iran. It's the Samson option.
7. Iran, contrary to the US propaganda machine, is winning the war, and Israel knows it, hence the Samson option on the table.
8. Iran has a big stockpile of missiles, enough to take down Israel. Israel gets theirs from us and sells them to Bahrain. Israel, for the jews, has a high standard of living, far above ours.
9. Trump is so ignorant, he said he would be involved in the choosing of the next Ayatollah. I actually laughed out loud at that. He really does think he's monarch king of the world.
10. Go to Iran and see the real people. You will love them. Go to Israel and see the real jewish racists. You will hate them. While you are there, visit the Palestinians and feel their warmth, kindness, welcoming nature. You will love them.
Before knocking another country, such as Russia and China. Cuba and Venezuela, go there and see in person, these real countries. The most beautiful city in the world is St. Petersburg.
The biggest city in the world, 31+ million, Chongqing, China has zero pollution and NO gas stations.
Aldous Huxley said, "People who don't travel don't know anything."
I had an Iranian friend who came to England when the coup happened, he was a young teen then but missed Iran badly,he called himself Harry while he was over here, as soon as the Shah was overthrown he returned to the land he loved. We kept in touch and like you, I have been to Iran, he was married by then but I spent a wonderful month with him and his family.
I guess that's why to find out about what's happening in Iran I listen to what iranians are saying.
I agree with all you said about Ayatollah Khamenei, and I absolutely loved his sense of humour.
I don't allow MI6 or M15 to whisper in my ear, I know exactly what England is and I admit, I longed to move to Iran, hardships and all brought about by the sanctions, although they eventually found their way around many things.
I never listen to my government or "whoever" about any other country because although done more discreetly than Trump and Co, I know they lie just as much.
And yes, I agree, Palestinians are wonderful people.
Seems we share a like history : ) Thank you for your writings. I wonder what happened to my friend Mohammad. Brilliant and kind. BTW, never fuck with people who invented Algebra. I never beat him in a chess match : (
Yes, shortly after the CIA decided we control their country.
We are evil people. Just think the Grandson of FDR the personal traveling bank for the CIA. I never knew that story until a few documents slipped out. The Mike Wallace interview of Dulles was horrifying. We are all Palestinian now.
To us no, but the Western lot say it's terrorism to support Palestine.
We supported Palestine Action who were jailed here for a year before their case came to Court, that is illegal, 6 months under certain rulings is the most. And of course when they came to Court recently, not guilty, though the government are trying to appeal it and put them through it all over again. We were labeled as terrorists for supporting them by wearing t shirts with Palestine Action on the front.
Sounds like england (lowercase for disrespect sorry) is competing for most evil with the u.s. and EU. EU is retaining my uppercase with Ireland and Spain still not so evil : )
I always try to differentiate between governments and working-class populace. And perhaps due to my heritage, I include the Italian PEOPLE. Fascist US-acolyte government and elite weapons manufacturers (Leonardo), but those dockworkers did some productive actions blocking weapons shipments to Israel.
Don't apologize, I often use lower case for the same reason. England has always been that way, I don't lose sight that my ancestors invaded here as Anglo Saxons and took over.
I was so desperate at one time I tried to see if anyone way back in time canoodled with one of the Celts but alas I can't even distance myself that way. I can't ever remember a time when England didn't live up to its name, given by other countries of course, of Perfidious Albion. I still think of it that way.
Yes, and not long ago I would have said no there are easier ways to get oil.
I am wondering now after writing a story about resource depletion, Dirty Dozen to Mars if Ghawar oil field is depleted to the point water injection for head pressure has reached the limit of returns. That would cause panic globally. The Nation of Caitlin should be non crude oil use.
I visited Iran as well, but, unlike you, I did meet people who did not like living in a theocracy. Sitting down in a hotel in Tehran, or was it Esfahan? I listened to the guy playing piano, I was surprised to hear him play "Imagine" by John Lenon. We all know the lyrics to that.
Unfortunately, some of the people I met do not understand that the enemy of my enemy is not my friend.
I was lucky enough to get one of those beautiful boxes of gaz a while back, and am hoarding it. Let's share a sweet piece in honor of the Iranian people.
That my friend was a brilliant synopsis of recent events. I myself even though protesting against the CIA/Iraq war on Iran didn't really understand the evil of what we in the u.s. did to Iran in 1951. The Dulles brothers probably the most evil people in the world having supported Adolf as well along with wait for it, wait for it, FDR Grandson infiltrating with cash building pretend groups of anti gov. mobs in Iran against the elected Mohammad Mossaddegh. Yep, FDRs Grandson a senior CIA official buying the media and forming both anti gov. mobs and pro gov. mobs, to burn hospitals, police stations, damaging property as well as homes of gov. officials all because Mossaddegh wanted more than the 16% oil revenue of BP. Saudi was getting 50% as he found out. Mossaddegh was a brilliant person educated in england and switzerland with many degrees.
When I was a kid, I had a friend, foreign exchange student from Iran. We met on a wrestling team. He was brilliant and kind. His Father asked me to come to school in Iran and work for his oil company, 1973. Humm.
Please continue writing. These facts spark my curiosity : ) Thank you.
I felt almost proud. Strange isn't it. IF only we in the u.s. had a competent, intelligent leader or even a CONgressperson like that. I would at least not feel hopeless staying in the u.s.
My Son is not a political person other than the occasional question when he reads or hears something he knows to be a lie. I never have lied to him. He now talks of leaving thinking the u.s. can not be saved from it's own gov. At first I thought he was kidding or
playing to my own politics. NOPE, with the Genocide Don gov. shutting down, the EPA, the FDA and companies realizing they no longer have to test water, waste water, food at anywhere near the level they had been His company who he was a Dir. of Microbiology for is downsizing operations around the world so, time to move on he said.
With so many people leaving the u.s. we really don't know where to go or even if we would be welcomed or make their situations worse. I have worked in a number of countries from the EU to South America in Science so I know what kind and loving people most are except for the young French people who would call me Coke-a-Cola ha.
I had thought in the not to distant future, something like the Nation of Caitlin would form
from the kind, loving and caring people like Caitlin and Tim. The Nation of Caitlin or satellites in many countries coming together to support each other. Sounds a bit like the old U.S.S.R. ha. now all we need is Che Guevara on his motorcycle : )
'There were fairly intelligent people who bought into the Iraq war propaganda. Many anti-war folk assumed Saddam probably did have weapons of mass destruction — they just didn’t buy into the narrative that war was the answer. There really were interventionists who sincerely believed the war could do good things for the Iraqi people.'
Indeed. Speaking for myself, I was focused on the horrors of Saddam's rule. In hindsight, I can see that I was played -- the goal was never to bring about a more acceptable Iraqi state -- but at the time...
Now? What's going on is just open evil. Those who attempt to defend are simply lying -- either to themselves or to the rest of us. It's a sick carnival of murderous bigotry, blatant dishonesty, and shamelessly serving the most evil state the First World has seen since Nazi Germany.
Saddam Hussein wasn’t exactly Mr. Nice Guy. But his government was SECULAR, included Christians and women, and he did NOT TOLERATE Islamic radicals. Who the fuck do you think he had killed?
I knew from the beginning that his overthrow would devolve into abject chaos. Yay me, I was fuckin correct.
Do you KNOW any Iraqis who lived there under Hussein? I DO. They said they had good lives, and left because of ISIL, not Hussein.
Colin is rightous in his assertion because that's what he has known / experience. The ridiculous affair is to argue whether Saddam was (or not) a good leader for Iraq. Likewise you / we are fallen in the trap of whether the Iranian government is "evil" ande that according to those who don't even live in Iran... I think it is time to speak of the western governments as the true global terrorists and that they need to tend to their internal affairs before judging the non-western, the colored, or muslim nations.
And! Exactly WHO made Iraq into a military power? USA, in USING Iraq to attack Iran, using chemical weapons from Germany, killing and severely injuring Iranians. AND! The Iranians have spent all their efforts SINCE THEN to build up their military BECAUSE they knew the Outlaw Empire (and the zionist settler colony) WILL come back and try again. So this is the THIRD direct US war on Iran, not to mention all the CIA ops.
The aWful W administration exploited Americans' ignorance and bigotry to wage a war of opportunity in the Middle East and deflect from the fact they had utterly failed at homeland defense. VOILA, a bureau of Homeland Security arises thereafter, subsequently to be used against law abiding Americans.
Just commented on that about the Iraq propaganda. Most of us had no clue our government was already that far gone. 25 years later we have learned much. Sometimes I wish i didn’t know.
This is why you need to reject the qualification of many who begin by saying things like 'Irans human rights record is appalling but...' This is deflection from the main issue. This is naked imperialism because IF the USA loses the gulf it is a nail in its coffin, and will mean an end to Bibi's idea of a Greater Israel. There is no option, no qualification - we MUST support Iran. Back at the time of the Tet Offensive the US propagandfa machine used it to describe the NLF as 'savages'. It was an attempt to blind people - to deflect from what the USA (the GREAT SATAN) was about. It failed and we MUST make sure if fails against Iran.
I don't know who you protested with but, NOPE you are wrong. In fact There are NO Weapons of Mass Destruction was on many protest posters and signs at the camps. In fact I have a photo of me standing on an overpass in Chicago.
You should have lead with the horrors of the CIA forcing Saddam to go to war on Iran.
Are you sure you bother to ask anyone around that was anti-war what the truth was?
I never believed any of it. That Saddam was a thug, yes. Quite a few world leaders are, certainly including all of ours since Carter, but making war on his country was no solution, and that wasn't the motive, which I thought transparently obvious--but I wasn't getting most of my info from "mainstream" media. I knew the aluminum tubes story had been debunked by an expert whose wife, in the CIA working on detecting nuclear weapons, was then outed by the Bush regime, highly illegally, in retaliation. I knew that Colin Powell's stunt at the UN was lies and that he had objected to doing it--but did it anyway, permanently discrediting himself. I knew that inspectors had combed through Iraq and found no evidence of WMDs. I knew that Israel had nukes, as did the US and everyone else wringing their hands over Iraq's and now Iran's imaginary nukes. I knew about the Project for a New American Century had lusted to take out a list of Middle Eastern countries including Iraq and Iran, but lamented that it would be hard to justify "absent a new Pearl Harbor," which 9/11 provided. I knew that W had told a biographer that he wanted to be a war president. I knew about the long ugly history of US & CIA interventions on behalf of corporate interests all over the globe.
Everyone's afraid of the schoolyard bully. They're all just glad he isn't picking on them. Until they realise they are all in danger of being terrorised, then they gather together, jump him and wrestle him to the ground, giving him a good hiding. That's the only way to deal with a bully; standing and watching can never stop him.
But while most are busy just trying to keep out of the bully's way, quietly sneaky pupils are running underhand operations selling catapults and chocolate contraband, supplying the bully to keep him sweet. Once he's been dealt with, their business enterprises are exposed.
I guess then the West would get the third world war that they crave and they do crave another total world war. Don't fret, Iran will do a lot better than people imagine. Once USA has had a taste of what it's been handing out since 2001, in a much shorter time frame, they may leave Iran alone for a very long time.
You took my meaning wrong and yes I know about the constant bombing in Somalia, works out at the rate of one every other day, I do what I call my daily rounds very first thing in the morning to keep up with what is going on around the world but I agree many people aren't even aware that is going on.
The US are expanding their military base across the border from Somalia as they want a bigger runway.
Though in my defense I'm unsure what people were saying over a week ago, I used to read the newsletter on Lew Rockwell page because I prefer to be a paid up member as Caitlin and Tim deserve that, so I didn't come on here until I'd saved up for that.
How I see it is we can't all go gung ho about it, most of our governments in the West are reading from the same playbook as USA. How to get them to change is a problem, kind of like what you are having. I mean ordinary people can't just catch flights into your country, ICE would round us up and throw us into one of the camps.
I don't know what the answer is, dropping bombs on each other isn't going to help.
I resist here in England in the best way I can but I'm open to listening to suggestions if you have any.
I do understand how you feel, I really do, the powerful are going nuts and help is what you need, though to be honest it's little better here, our government just do it quietly.
Yes but we still have the problem that it's our governments and their paymasters who go to war, not we the people. I haven't got a stock of missiles to lob at someone and I doubt you have either.
When we solve that problem, we can do something about it.
Trump is being blackmailed because of his pedo past, and the world is going to pay the price for his wretchedness and cowardice. He is israel’s perfect pawn.
Jim, I wonder about that. I think both Trump and Netanyahu are pawns in a bigger chess game. They are like siblings fighting to be the number one pawn. If you look closely you can see how they undermine each other more so than they do each other's bidding. They are just the face of a deeper more corrupt power that rules this world. The Epstein files are a horrendous example of how depraved these folks are, but it's not new. It is just being used as a tool of division or a distraction. We can be assured of that because not a single person in the USA will be prosecuted. It feels more like bait and switch to me. It certainly has taken our focus off the genocide in Gaza. Now we have even a bigger distraction, the US-Israeli war against Iran. Meanwhile, Greater Israel plans have been amplified and is going full steam ahead.
Maybe a bit but he's always been an egotistical liar so not a lot new there, I think they picked him because his overinflated nature was perfect for the job.
Ah, but Caitlin, the US and Israel are invading Iran to bring about Armageddon so that the righteous Christian Zionists can rise naked to the right hand side of God. All those fat asses floating through the sky should be an interesting, possibly amusing, sight.
Considering people like Mike Huckabee support this blasphemous lie of Christian Zionism. If they truly believe in Christ then they are bound for hell for their idolatry. Vance, Hegseth, Trump and the IDF (Randy Fine);soldiers in US Congress should go to the front lines
Anyway, nobody of influence and authority believes any of that "Rapture" crap. Otherwise, they would not be frantically laying up for themselves treasures on earth but in heaven.
Hello Susan T. I've called the final plan the "Arm-a-Gideon end run" for years. The book of Revelation reads like a bad acid trip. That's why christians and jews pound sand so much...
Where's Leonardo Da Vinci when we need an artist to climb up a ladder and paint a sacred nationalist vision upon the ceiling of an architectural marvel? And Trump bulldozed the White House for less....
You are 100 percent correct. The Iraq War had nothing on this horrific conflict. The fact that we are fighting a war on Israel's behalf makes it even worse. This conflict is not in America's national interest, and anyone saying differently has a dual loyalty issue. They serve Israel, not America.
Iraq was 100% on Israel's behalf. Operation Shock and Awe killed between 7,500 and 10,000 Iraqi civilians and displaced a million in the first few days.
Most of the wars in the Middle East have been on behalf of Israel. Netanyahu has been the biggest mouth screaming about what nation is dangerous to its existence. Next country on the list, Turkiyie. So there you go. Routes and resources by any means necessary.
Well no. It's not like the US kings did it purely on Israel's behalf. They also had to satisfy the military-industrial complex, stop an oil-rich country from selling oil in other than US dollars--the petrodollar is the only thing allowing the US to run trade deficits and debt at levels that have other countries under IMF austerity regimes--and it wasn't letting US oil companies take most of the profits. The war in Ukraine, largely instigated by the US, was not on Israel's behalf.
ERETZ YISRAEL - That was always the Zionist Jews plan. Break up the Countries in the Middle East into small fiefdoms and Kingdoms so they can slaughter the Goyem and steal the land
Remember how when obama was voted in to office, and people were all “a black man in office, oh things will change?” Haha , this is how naive we really were. Less so now one hopes.
Israel led ZOG by the nose into this cluster-fuq of a war.
Now the lap poodle US is taking responsibility for Israel's war crimes!
The infamous girl's school that murderous Israel intentionally hit slaughtering more than a hundred youngsters,
NOW THE US IS TAKING RESPONSIBILITY FOR IT!
This paragraph from Reuters should be etched in stone forever.
Reuters:
----------
The officials, who spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss sensitive military matters, did not rule out the possibility that new evidence could emerge that absolves the U.S. of responsibility and points to another responsible party in the incident.
----------
You caught that, right!? Doesn't even say Israel, it says that it might not actually be the US that did it,
it might turn out that ******** "another responsible party" ********** did it.
David Korabell, you said, "He grabs a knife and starts stabbing you for no apparent reason."
The reasons are apparent but they've been ignored.
Leading up to that day when "he grabs a knife and starts stabbing you..." he's been getting away with unmitigated murder. He has not been held accountable for any transgression since the day he was born. He has been protected from anyone who would point it out that this child is a menace to society. He has been allowed to bully, curse, impede, demoralize, rage, and spew hatred towards anyone he pleased. His parents looked away, coddled him, excused him, protected him, fought others on his behalf or said, "Don't mind Johnny, he didn't mean it."
The USA is a baby nation, built on the genocide of the indigenous and the backs of enslaved Africans. None of its crimes against humanity have been dealt with and it has set itself up as the last word giving itself "veto" power. The world allowed it. The world joined with the USA in its incessant wars around the globe. The world joined in its crimes against humanity and lawlessness. And on and on.
In this instance, there was definitely a reason that "Johnny" grabbed a knife and stabbed his parents. He was given carte blanche to do whatever he wanted to do. What we see happening now, is the results of allowing "Johnny" to escape being accountable for his actions. All the way down to killing his parents.
His parents are the other European colonial powers whose children are their descendants living right here in the USA. The USA is largest colonial power in the world. 50 states plus numerous principalities which were all stolen by various European nations then taken over by the USA with its Manifest Destiny. The USA is a house of cards that is doomed to fall because it has been allowed to escape being accountable for its atrocities.
I was in the "Believe Hans Blix, not George Bush" camp back in 2003. For those old enough to remember, he was the United Nations inspector that was tasked with finding Saddam's WMD's before the invasion began. And his report basically refuted everything the Bush Administration was saying, so they kicked him out of Iraq.
He was the most truthful authority on Saddam's WMD program, which by that time had basically degraded to the point of uselessness. But far too many people were duped by Dubya, Colin Powell, and Condaleeza Rice.
In the UK, we had Dr. David Kelly, who concluded the same thing. He suddenly and mysteriously 'committed suicide' after declaring there were no WMD in Iraq. He displayed no suicidal tendancies.
Actually, the war on Iraq had been in the making for a long time before the WMD propaganda was used. Iraq suffered sever sanctions and bombings and had been in the ire of the USA geopolitical eye way back during the Clinton era. Warmongering hit a fever pitch during the Bush era. Ironically, they bombed Afghanistan after claiming it was Saudi nationals that attack the USA on 911. That action set the template for what we see today. Pre-emptive strikes got hard wired into the warmongers' playbook with the claim of it being a war on terror. It set the stage for never ending wars, covering the fact that it was really all about routes and resources. Remember that pipeline they wanted to create through Afghanistan? Destabilization of the Middle East is all about routes and resources and nothing about Democracy, human rights or international law. Unfortunately, the rabble rousing for war after war after war, seems to have the ability to erase the memory of the masses who tend to forget how many times they have been duped into going to war for the benefit of the banksters.
The biggest differences is we (US) had been attacked recently. We also had good reason to believe Saddam may have been involved and may be in possession of WMD.
To the youth…You must understand that at that time it was not widely accepted that our government was actually devious enough to lie about such things. Democrats didn’t believe it but they really had no first hand knowledge; they just hated GWB. The thought that our government could have had something to do with the 911 attacks was also out of bounds. Turns out we were wrong about both.
The point I am trying to make is present day is far more insane. Hell we don’t even have a good lie to believe in nor were we wronged by Iran.
Now that has been made clear I believe karma will prove to be a real mother fucker this time around. I am going to call it right now, Iran has ALREADY WON. Trump cannot leave now. If he decides to cut and run Iran will lob more ballistic missiles at the Zionist State than they currently are now. The Strait of Hormuz will continue to be off limits and our bases will continue to be bombarded.
-We have dicked them over twice during negotiations
-We have targeted civilian infrastructure
-Murdered 150 school girls
-Cowardly killed over 100 crew members in an attack on their ship in International waters.
These are just a few things that come to mind. As God as my witness I never believed Trump had it in him. I have never been more wrong and never been more disgusted. But I can promise you this, unless Iran lets him off the hook (no clue why they would) he and his administration will pay dearly. We are all going to some degree. In fact, what is coming will most likely be to the detriment of the entire world.
The idea that Saddam may have been involved in 9/11 was always a false assumption pushed by the NeoCons in the White House. But those of us who understood the Middle East better than your typical American knew that Bin Laden considered Saddam an infidel and not part of his ideological boy's club known as Wahhabism.
I never bought the involved in 911 lie. I did however suspect he had WMD because he had used them before.
You know I was just thinking, Saddam really was a bad dude (I think). Not saying that is a legitimate reason for his removal. The reason I mention is because I have never really heard anything too bad about Iranian leadership? Saddam you would hear about torture rooms and the cruelty of his sons, etc. Got me curious about the Iranian Leadership. Like I said never really heard anything specific about them.
gypsy33, so much for your bedside manner... however you are speaking the truth. Saddam was in the hip pocket of the USA, it was used in the 8 day war for the express purpose of taking down Iran with the WMD's it got from the USA. Then Saddam found out that he was disposable. If you dance with the devil, you can't choose the tune.
Do you speak English? If not I will give you a pass. If so you need to take some basic reading comprehension classes. You can start with Hooked on Phonics.
Ah but think, where did you hear about those torture chambers, USA media with possibly the odd " Iraqi" speaking about horrors and collecting his pay on the way out after a job well done.
Oldest trick in the playbook, they do it to any country they don't like. I'm not saying he was perfect but name me one countries leader that is? Besides there is a true version of a horrific leader in the White House now.
We only hear generalities like how the Iranian regime tortures and kills women for not wearing their hijabs properly or how they mow down thousands of protesters. The most recent crackdowns have resulted in almost 7000 dead, for example. Brutality and repression is the name of the game in the Islamic "Republic" of Iran.
Which is quite funny as the hijab does not have to be worn, though many women do like to wear it, but they can go the loose headscarf route if they feel better with something covering their hair or not wear anything on their heads at all. It's a Western myth.
They can hardly be as down on women as our media likes to say or university wouldn't be allowed, yet it's even stevens with the men, several of the scientists that US took out the first time round last year were women.
There isn't much sharing of trade secrets or porno\promo tapes among the nations of our world that consider torture a profession and maintenance of the facilities for both increasing the fear\mystique of the government by the governed and control over all entrepreneurial trade in people and pastimes along with goods & services to be both character building and good for the nation's bottom line as well as image among other, often neighboring rulers peering over borders never more subject to change.
Despite differences in major languages, ethnic groupings, religious & social prohibitions, not to mention which side of the Islamic divide one comes down on, role of women in society and rules for men and cross-border trade (along with mapping those borders and administering them dba taxing\shakedown rates and methods of payment) along with registration of all "private" property, maintenance of the 'Corrections System' and the 'Justice System' and controls governing Syria's bounty of natural resources and management of markets the recent dissolution of the ancient nation state of Syria is instructive.
I think it might be to the improvement of the entire world. Someone has to stop the insane US government, and if we the people aren't going to do our job, it will be up to someone else to do it.
The US government, at this point, looks to me like an elephant with a bullet in its brain rampaging around, stomping everything in its path without noticing, even its own people.
All of that is so very true. I would like to think of myself as a pretty brave fellow. Sometimes thinking about this stuff terrifies me. We are a combination of arrogant, deceitful, stupid, crazy, and flat out evil.
Most of the people are good but they are apathetic sheep. Sometimes I just want to scream and wake them. Sometimes I think it simply better they remain status quo.
Unfortunately, those are the dominant traits of those who lead us. And ultimately I cannot foresee a happy ending.
Who is this “we” in “we had good reason to believe….”? Weapons inspectors were screaming from the mountain top that Iraq had no WMDs. Chris Hedges was abruptly fired from his agency spot at the NYTs for writing about it. The administration started screaming ‘Saddam!’ On 9/12 - the WMD allegations came when that bullshit was easily fact-checked, and Bin Laden claimed credit (after initially denying it, which always made his involvement seem a bit doubtful anyway.)
Initially a lot of high profile reporters opposed the WMD stories, and saw their reputations and jobs evaporate (Dan Rather received a forged document on a story that happened to be 100% accurate. When he fact checked the document, all sources pointed to the information being correct. When he shared the document, it was called out as a forgery, and the last anti war main stream journalist was destroyed.)
One could attempt to argue that Americans were somehow more ‘innocent’ back then… except this comes AFTER Vietnam, Nixon, Reagan, Iran-Contra, Salvador, Nicaragua, and Gulf I - enough data to point to determined and purposeful ignorance rather than some sort of blessed naïveté.
As you stated, very accurate. Looking back , most of us were not ready to accept how off the rails our system had already become. There’s still a great deal many of us that continue to hide I suspect.
Don’t worry about them, they’re running out of time. We all are now. The doomsday countdown has officially begun.
Luke, you said "To the youth…You must understand that at that time it was not widely accepted that our government was actually devious enough to lie about such things"
In my view, the only people who didn't know how devious our government was are those who lived under a rock.
There were so many other events that preceded 9/11 in which our government outright lied and covered up its complicity it ain't funny. The only people who didn't see the lying politicians are the ones who were never impacted by their lies. Those of us who were, knew full well that the USA and its governmental leaders were and continue to be big time liars.
One of the biggest lies and cover-ups was the assassination of JFK. But there were plenty before and plenty more afterwards.
This war and Gaza are examples of Eminent Domain at gunpoint. Taking these lands to build Greater Israel to benefit the elites that Trump has on his Rape of Gaza
Isn't this always just the Marketing strategy employed by the military industrial complex? Increase the budget to expand markets and use part of that budget for Hollywood to inundate us with propaganda movies, control religions and influence policy. You must manufacture an enemy to manufacture consent.
The trajectory of a dying empire. Iraq: massive forces with large coalition. Libya: NATO air campaign and paid-off local proxies. Syria: chemical false flags and partnering with ISIS. Yemen: a parade of aircraft carriers running for cover while bombing civilian infrastructure. Iran: became canon fodder for the Israelis while watching every US base in West Asia go up in flames. Soon to see carrier battles groups pulverised. I’m sure Shakespeare had something to say about this kind of thing…
"The U.S. attacked Iran because Netanyahu said so." And why does he have DJT on such a leash? Don't we all understand that the answer lies in the Epstein documentation? Riddle solved.
There are no words to describe the sickness of a human being that would literally end all life on earth rather than face the consequences of his guilt.
"Don't we all understand that the answer lies in the Epstein documentation?"
That most probably doesn't exist any more in DoJ files, whether Trump did it or it happened earlier. But Trump has every reason to believe -- or he knows -- it exists elsewhere.
Do you want to know why I want to know who the guilty parties are, because people are so busy worrying about the survivors who I agree should get justice, they forget the most important thing.
Pedophiles never stop, one supplier goes away, they find another. Old age doesn't seem to come into it. Over here Ted Heath was still at it until he virtually died as was Cyril Smith, I could name more but that's enough to prove my point.
Any serious consideration of Bibi's POV and motives should first consult with the latest online storehouses of info on his various court proceedings still in process since his last court date and process of his various well-recorded trials both civil and criminal (I speak not of metaphors here). Here are just a few from his solo and previous partnerships that preceded the current career phase dubbed by some global Muck Rakers as the TrumpanYahu Proceedings:
Netanyahu's trial has been suspended regardless — the courts are closed under the emergency measures declared since the start of the war, other than for urgent matters.

"Allegedly responsible for the war crimes of starvation as a method of warfare and of intentionally directing an attack against the civilian population; and the crimes against humanity of murder, persecution, and other inhumane acts from at least 8 October 2023 until at least 20 May 2024."
To a point but more than that, did you know to be allowed to live in Israel community you have to have at least a quarter of Ashkenazi Jewish bloodline ( I don't know if normal Jews think the same), Trump's Bavarian great grandparents were Ashkenazi Jews, he's definitely got a quarter.
Where do you get these voidoids? They're not even factoids? You should at least have the grace to note your source. It would no doubt be some kinda boon to the dyed-in-the-wool racialists who've despised Trump since his days in what White Racialists (some even with verifiably Jewish family roots that go back as long as surviving and verifiable birth\hospital docs, albeit Racial is often a psychological choice as there is plenty of ways to cease being Jewish and\or start being Jewish that have nothing to do with maintaining genetic 'purity.' Scriptures and Sages won't bring any certitude to this human construct of 'Racial.' Disagreements have preceded the scrolls and scholars as to whether matrilineal or patrilineal descent pertains.
I can only tell you what Netanyahu and one of his Rabbi's said on who can live within the Jewish community. So kind of the rules of whose running the show there at the moment. Where I heard him say it I couldn't tell you, few years ago now.
I do not touch wikipedia but that's me.
And that kind of evidence is debatable, there are many things said in UK and in the USA that are totally different to what they used to be but books remain the same.
It goes much farther. I myself am not taken in by religious superstitions, however billions of people are. Israel is the ANTI CHRIST by definition. Jews are the people that had Jesus crucified though he was a Jew. He told them the temple on the mount would be destroyed, it was history and geology show it. NO GID fearing Christian or Muslim doubts the word of God . There has been a Muslim(Islamic) shrine on that site that is holy to both Christians and Islam. The Jews want to destroy it to bring about the return of GOD. This will most certainly spark religious war worldwide. Exactly what the ANTICHRIST WANTS. That US military is being indoctrinated to assist the destruction of this holy place is well documented. Yet Christians and Catholics In US are buying this crime. That is Bat SHIT crazy because it is guaranteed to create chaos in the military across America and the world.
It's a bat shit crazy idea to think that you can invoke the return of a Messiah into a world that is wrecked by heinous destruction. If anything, it would invoke the return of a force that is essentially negative and destructive.
Gotta love the attitude of the Iranian ambassador --
Yes we're ready for anything: we're defending our home, and we anticipated possibilities.
And: no . . . we're not interested in ceasefire, US always lies.
Finally, they get it!
Trump is right about one thing... "When crazy people have a nuclear weapon, bad things happen." That's what I am really afraid of... Mizz Izzy has nukes.
Everyone knows the Open Secret that Israel has nukes and isnt regulated nor do they obey any rules... big surprise.
Will Mizz Izzy's psychotic- mad dog behavior end in a nuke?
That Mizz Izzy is the REAL Murderous Regime that has WMDs and is terrorizing the Planet with her EPSTEIN CLASS Attack Dog, Uncle Sam?
God Bless the Truth-Tellers.
Community is Our Greatest Strength ✌️
Yep, it's truly horrendous what Israel get away with. If they go for Samson option a lot of us are going to get hit, that's how they've got it rigged, nuclear weapons pointing at all countries they can reach, which is most.
I doubt Netanyahu and his crime gang are so keen to take themselves out as they say, more a case of, do what we ask or we'll press the button. Big bullies at heart as well as evil.
Interesting. From what I have read on the subject israel has only short range nuclear missiles on it's few submarines and most of it's nuclear weapons are nuclear aircraft dropped bombs. 200 weapons are what is mentioned.
The secret is not so secret if I knew about this in the 70s. I wrote a story Super Gun a space accelerator, at the time helping to build the most powerful accelerator in the world ha. Neutron showers anyone : (
It would be better if that was the case, not good but better.
They have between 200 and 400 underground ready for Operation Samson. I doubt in reality it will be used but if it is, a lot of us won't know much about it.
Super Gun space accelerator, sounds interesting.
I asked my 6-year old son, who is the strongest boy in your class? He pointed out the tinyest and thinest one. I asked why him? And my son saId; because he is the most cruel.
I am glad he's found that out already because I agree with him, casting my mind a long time back, yet it also applies to some work situations, it is the child whose big and a bit overweight, or has say a scar or birthmark on their face that the weediest looking child could bully .
Great Question. It seems the betting public is betting heavy on nuclear weapons use. Seems I say this all the time now, I would not even entertain that thought four years ago, now I think it's 50/50 with israel/u.s. losing the war on Iran.
They've always "got it" but they have to be willing to go the so called diplomatic route or can you imagine the excuses that gives the West to lie about them. They know exactly how the US behave, I mean you only have to look at the past 25 years to see that.
This time they will not stop the fighting because it's about their very existence of their people and land. The twelve day war last year they stopped because only Israel was involved except for a quick visit from the US, and they possibly hoped after twelve days Israel would behave for a while. It did. No point of fighting Israel into the ground when you know US will be back.
A few facts about Iran. (Yes, I’ve been there,)
1. Iran is a democratic Republic with an excellent Constitution that the people respect and follow. Every office, small to large, has free and fair elections. The Ayatollah is chosen by a committe.
2. Iran, unlike, Israel, is NOT a terrorist state.
3. The Ayatollah was a brilliant and lovely, kind person who loved the citizens and did his best for them They loved him back.
4. There's absolute coherence in the Iranians gathering around the defense of their country. When you hear otherwise, it's the CIA in your ear. [BTW, the CIA took down the trade towers, with approval of the FBI.]
5. The Iranians have expected and prepared for this war for nearly 50 years. They were ready for it.
6. The Iranians made a fatwah in 2003 against having nuclear weapons and they have kept that promise. I wish they had them because Israel has 250 nuclear warheads, enough to destroy the world, and they will before losing to Iran. It's the Samson option.
7. Iran, contrary to the US propaganda machine, is winning the war, and Israel knows it, hence the Samson option on the table.
8. Iran has a big stockpile of missiles, enough to take down Israel. Israel gets theirs from us and sells them to Bahrain. Israel, for the jews, has a high standard of living, far above ours.
9. Trump is so ignorant, he said he would be involved in the choosing of the next Ayatollah. I actually laughed out loud at that. He really does think he's monarch king of the world.
10. Go to Iran and see the real people. You will love them. Go to Israel and see the real jewish racists. You will hate them. While you are there, visit the Palestinians and feel their warmth, kindness, welcoming nature. You will love them.
Before knocking another country, such as Russia and China. Cuba and Venezuela, go there and see in person, these real countries. The most beautiful city in the world is St. Petersburg.
The biggest city in the world, 31+ million, Chongqing, China has zero pollution and NO gas stations.
Aldous Huxley said, "People who don't travel don't know anything."
I had an Iranian friend who came to England when the coup happened, he was a young teen then but missed Iran badly,he called himself Harry while he was over here, as soon as the Shah was overthrown he returned to the land he loved. We kept in touch and like you, I have been to Iran, he was married by then but I spent a wonderful month with him and his family.
I guess that's why to find out about what's happening in Iran I listen to what iranians are saying.
I agree with all you said about Ayatollah Khamenei, and I absolutely loved his sense of humour.
I don't allow MI6 or M15 to whisper in my ear, I know exactly what England is and I admit, I longed to move to Iran, hardships and all brought about by the sanctions, although they eventually found their way around many things.
I never listen to my government or "whoever" about any other country because although done more discreetly than Trump and Co, I know they lie just as much.
And yes, I agree, Palestinians are wonderful people.
Seems we share a like history : ) Thank you for your writings. I wonder what happened to my friend Mohammad. Brilliant and kind. BTW, never fuck with people who invented Algebra. I never beat him in a chess match : (
Yes the West conveniently forget what we gained from Iran or Persia as it was known at the time.
Did you lose touch with your friend?
Yes, shortly after the CIA decided we control their country.
We are evil people. Just think the Grandson of FDR the personal traveling bank for the CIA. I never knew that story until a few documents slipped out. The Mike Wallace interview of Dulles was horrifying. We are all Palestinian now.
I also add to this........Iran was never involved in terrorism.
To us no, but the Western lot say it's terrorism to support Palestine.
We supported Palestine Action who were jailed here for a year before their case came to Court, that is illegal, 6 months under certain rulings is the most. And of course when they came to Court recently, not guilty, though the government are trying to appeal it and put them through it all over again. We were labeled as terrorists for supporting them by wearing t shirts with Palestine Action on the front.
Sounds like england (lowercase for disrespect sorry) is competing for most evil with the u.s. and EU. EU is retaining my uppercase with Ireland and Spain still not so evil : )
EU (apart from Spain) are vassals of the US. I live here in France.
I always try to differentiate between governments and working-class populace. And perhaps due to my heritage, I include the Italian PEOPLE. Fascist US-acolyte government and elite weapons manufacturers (Leonardo), but those dockworkers did some productive actions blocking weapons shipments to Israel.
Don't apologize, I often use lower case for the same reason. England has always been that way, I don't lose sight that my ancestors invaded here as Anglo Saxons and took over.
I was so desperate at one time I tried to see if anyone way back in time canoodled with one of the Celts but alas I can't even distance myself that way. I can't ever remember a time when England didn't live up to its name, given by other countries of course, of Perfidious Albion. I still think of it that way.
It's all about oil.
Yes, and not long ago I would have said no there are easier ways to get oil.
I am wondering now after writing a story about resource depletion, Dirty Dozen to Mars if Ghawar oil field is depleted to the point water injection for head pressure has reached the limit of returns. That would cause panic globally. The Nation of Caitlin should be non crude oil use.
Non-raping of Mother GAIA more generally. Halt interference with Biosphere brilliance. Make the dumb-effer corporate world pay for restoration.
I visited Iran as well, but, unlike you, I did meet people who did not like living in a theocracy. Sitting down in a hotel in Tehran, or was it Esfahan? I listened to the guy playing piano, I was surprised to hear him play "Imagine" by John Lenon. We all know the lyrics to that.
Unfortunately, some of the people I met do not understand that the enemy of my enemy is not my friend.
I was lucky enough to get one of those beautiful boxes of gaz a while back, and am hoarding it. Let's share a sweet piece in honor of the Iranian people.
I refer to a comment I posted elsewhere about cloud-being-based religions. Potential mind-traps inviting conflict, as history informs.
That my friend was a brilliant synopsis of recent events. I myself even though protesting against the CIA/Iraq war on Iran didn't really understand the evil of what we in the u.s. did to Iran in 1951. The Dulles brothers probably the most evil people in the world having supported Adolf as well along with wait for it, wait for it, FDR Grandson infiltrating with cash building pretend groups of anti gov. mobs in Iran against the elected Mohammad Mossaddegh. Yep, FDRs Grandson a senior CIA official buying the media and forming both anti gov. mobs and pro gov. mobs, to burn hospitals, police stations, damaging property as well as homes of gov. officials all because Mossaddegh wanted more than the 16% oil revenue of BP. Saudi was getting 50% as he found out. Mossaddegh was a brilliant person educated in england and switzerland with many degrees.
When I was a kid, I had a friend, foreign exchange student from Iran. We met on a wrestling team. He was brilliant and kind. His Father asked me to come to school in Iran and work for his oil company, 1973. Humm.
Please continue writing. These facts spark my curiosity : ) Thank you.
The Dulles brothers are some of the darkest princes in the pantheon of scummiest creatures of the 20th century
You had me going until you said China has no air pollution.
I felt almost proud. Strange isn't it. IF only we in the u.s. had a competent, intelligent leader or even a CONgressperson like that. I would at least not feel hopeless staying in the u.s.
My Son is not a political person other than the occasional question when he reads or hears something he knows to be a lie. I never have lied to him. He now talks of leaving thinking the u.s. can not be saved from it's own gov. At first I thought he was kidding or
playing to my own politics. NOPE, with the Genocide Don gov. shutting down, the EPA, the FDA and companies realizing they no longer have to test water, waste water, food at anywhere near the level they had been His company who he was a Dir. of Microbiology for is downsizing operations around the world so, time to move on he said.
With so many people leaving the u.s. we really don't know where to go or even if we would be welcomed or make their situations worse. I have worked in a number of countries from the EU to South America in Science so I know what kind and loving people most are except for the young French people who would call me Coke-a-Cola ha.
I had thought in the not to distant future, something like the Nation of Caitlin would form
from the kind, loving and caring people like Caitlin and Tim. The Nation of Caitlin or satellites in many countries coming together to support each other. Sounds a bit like the old U.S.S.R. ha. now all we need is Che Guevara on his motorcycle : )
There are whole towns for sale in the u.s. now.
I empathize with your dilemma and wish I had a cogent suggestion.
About half of my nephews and nieces have left the USA for good. The others married foreigners.
'There were fairly intelligent people who bought into the Iraq war propaganda. Many anti-war folk assumed Saddam probably did have weapons of mass destruction — they just didn’t buy into the narrative that war was the answer. There really were interventionists who sincerely believed the war could do good things for the Iraqi people.'
Indeed. Speaking for myself, I was focused on the horrors of Saddam's rule. In hindsight, I can see that I was played -- the goal was never to bring about a more acceptable Iraqi state -- but at the time...
Now? What's going on is just open evil. Those who attempt to defend are simply lying -- either to themselves or to the rest of us. It's a sick carnival of murderous bigotry, blatant dishonesty, and shamelessly serving the most evil state the First World has seen since Nazi Germany.
Colin, your assertion is ridiculous.
Saddam Hussein wasn’t exactly Mr. Nice Guy. But his government was SECULAR, included Christians and women, and he did NOT TOLERATE Islamic radicals. Who the fuck do you think he had killed?
I knew from the beginning that his overthrow would devolve into abject chaos. Yay me, I was fuckin correct.
Do you KNOW any Iraqis who lived there under Hussein? I DO. They said they had good lives, and left because of ISIL, not Hussein.
Colin is rightous in his assertion because that's what he has known / experience. The ridiculous affair is to argue whether Saddam was (or not) a good leader for Iraq. Likewise you / we are fallen in the trap of whether the Iranian government is "evil" ande that according to those who don't even live in Iran... I think it is time to speak of the western governments as the true global terrorists and that they need to tend to their internal affairs before judging the non-western, the colored, or muslim nations.
And totally abandon the words "go in there and..."
Jasmine :WRONG.
If you are unfamiliar with West Asia, you don’t get to have an opinion. Fuck that shit.
And if you think that I personally have fallen into any “trap”, there’s a bridge over the Straights of Mackinaw for sale. I own it.
You seem to be arguing with yourself. Give your opinion and walk away instead of shutting others down.
And! Exactly WHO made Iraq into a military power? USA, in USING Iraq to attack Iran, using chemical weapons from Germany, killing and severely injuring Iranians. AND! The Iranians have spent all their efforts SINCE THEN to build up their military BECAUSE they knew the Outlaw Empire (and the zionist settler colony) WILL come back and try again. So this is the THIRD direct US war on Iran, not to mention all the CIA ops.
The aWful W administration exploited Americans' ignorance and bigotry to wage a war of opportunity in the Middle East and deflect from the fact they had utterly failed at homeland defense. VOILA, a bureau of Homeland Security arises thereafter, subsequently to be used against law abiding Americans.
Bravo. I love you more now : )
I wrote this reply before I even read what you wrote, that is how much I missed you : )
Hopefully what you wrote doesn't piss me off and spoil the absolute unquestioning love : )
Not in a million years, Landru 😊
'...he did NOT TOLERATE Islamic radicals. Who the fuck do you think he had killed?'
Why is this a good thing?
ISIL?
Al Qaeda?
These names ring a bell in that nonexistent brain, pal?
Try being reasonably polite if you actually want a response. Being offensive on the internet doesn't demonstrate much...pal.
Just commented on that about the Iraq propaganda. Most of us had no clue our government was already that far gone. 25 years later we have learned much. Sometimes I wish i didn’t know.
This is why you need to reject the qualification of many who begin by saying things like 'Irans human rights record is appalling but...' This is deflection from the main issue. This is naked imperialism because IF the USA loses the gulf it is a nail in its coffin, and will mean an end to Bibi's idea of a Greater Israel. There is no option, no qualification - we MUST support Iran. Back at the time of the Tet Offensive the US propagandfa machine used it to describe the NLF as 'savages'. It was an attempt to blind people - to deflect from what the USA (the GREAT SATAN) was about. It failed and we MUST make sure if fails against Iran.
I don't know who you protested with but, NOPE you are wrong. In fact There are NO Weapons of Mass Destruction was on many protest posters and signs at the camps. In fact I have a photo of me standing on an overpass in Chicago.
You should have lead with the horrors of the CIA forcing Saddam to go to war on Iran.
Are you sure you bother to ask anyone around that was anti-war what the truth was?
I never believed any of it. That Saddam was a thug, yes. Quite a few world leaders are, certainly including all of ours since Carter, but making war on his country was no solution, and that wasn't the motive, which I thought transparently obvious--but I wasn't getting most of my info from "mainstream" media. I knew the aluminum tubes story had been debunked by an expert whose wife, in the CIA working on detecting nuclear weapons, was then outed by the Bush regime, highly illegally, in retaliation. I knew that Colin Powell's stunt at the UN was lies and that he had objected to doing it--but did it anyway, permanently discrediting himself. I knew that inspectors had combed through Iraq and found no evidence of WMDs. I knew that Israel had nukes, as did the US and everyone else wringing their hands over Iraq's and now Iran's imaginary nukes. I knew about the Project for a New American Century had lusted to take out a list of Middle Eastern countries including Iraq and Iran, but lamented that it would be hard to justify "absent a new Pearl Harbor," which 9/11 provided. I knew that W had told a biographer that he wanted to be a war president. I knew about the long ugly history of US & CIA interventions on behalf of corporate interests all over the globe.
Everyone's afraid of the schoolyard bully. They're all just glad he isn't picking on them. Until they realise they are all in danger of being terrorised, then they gather together, jump him and wrestle him to the ground, giving him a good hiding. That's the only way to deal with a bully; standing and watching can never stop him.
But while most are busy just trying to keep out of the bully's way, quietly sneaky pupils are running underhand operations selling catapults and chocolate contraband, supplying the bully to keep him sweet. Once he's been dealt with, their business enterprises are exposed.
I guess then the West would get the third world war that they crave and they do crave another total world war. Don't fret, Iran will do a lot better than people imagine. Once USA has had a taste of what it's been handing out since 2001, in a much shorter time frame, they may leave Iran alone for a very long time.
You took my meaning wrong and yes I know about the constant bombing in Somalia, works out at the rate of one every other day, I do what I call my daily rounds very first thing in the morning to keep up with what is going on around the world but I agree many people aren't even aware that is going on.
The US are expanding their military base across the border from Somalia as they want a bigger runway.
Though in my defense I'm unsure what people were saying over a week ago, I used to read the newsletter on Lew Rockwell page because I prefer to be a paid up member as Caitlin and Tim deserve that, so I didn't come on here until I'd saved up for that.
How I see it is we can't all go gung ho about it, most of our governments in the West are reading from the same playbook as USA. How to get them to change is a problem, kind of like what you are having. I mean ordinary people can't just catch flights into your country, ICE would round us up and throw us into one of the camps.
I don't know what the answer is, dropping bombs on each other isn't going to help.
I resist here in England in the best way I can but I'm open to listening to suggestions if you have any.
I do understand how you feel, I really do, the powerful are going nuts and help is what you need, though to be honest it's little better here, our government just do it quietly.
Yes but we still have the problem that it's our governments and their paymasters who go to war, not we the people. I haven't got a stock of missiles to lob at someone and I doubt you have either.
When we solve that problem, we can do something about it.
The words "protection racket" come to mind.
Trump is being blackmailed because of his pedo past, and the world is going to pay the price for his wretchedness and cowardice. He is israel’s perfect pawn.
Jim, I wonder about that. I think both Trump and Netanyahu are pawns in a bigger chess game. They are like siblings fighting to be the number one pawn. If you look closely you can see how they undermine each other more so than they do each other's bidding. They are just the face of a deeper more corrupt power that rules this world. The Epstein files are a horrendous example of how depraved these folks are, but it's not new. It is just being used as a tool of division or a distraction. We can be assured of that because not a single person in the USA will be prosecuted. It feels more like bait and switch to me. It certainly has taken our focus off the genocide in Gaza. Now we have even a bigger distraction, the US-Israeli war against Iran. Meanwhile, Greater Israel plans have been amplified and is going full steam ahead.
I agree they are pawns in a bigger game, at the same time I'm sure Trump and Netanyahu are both enjoying every moment of what they're doing.
Maybe a bit but he's always been an egotistical liar so not a lot new there, I think they picked him because his overinflated nature was perfect for the job.
Ah, but Caitlin, the US and Israel are invading Iran to bring about Armageddon so that the righteous Christian Zionists can rise naked to the right hand side of God. All those fat asses floating through the sky should be an interesting, possibly amusing, sight.
Considering people like Mike Huckabee support this blasphemous lie of Christian Zionism. If they truly believe in Christ then they are bound for hell for their idolatry. Vance, Hegseth, Trump and the IDF (Randy Fine);soldiers in US Congress should go to the front lines

That works too, but I like mine better.

I was about to go to bed, but now I have to go watch some Gilligan to keep "those fat asses floating through the sky" outta my dreams! 😝
Susan, that visual’s stuck in my head 😭😭😭
I know, right! Don't want that in your dreams! 😝
I truly did not need that visual.
Anyway, nobody of influence and authority believes any of that "Rapture" crap. Otherwise, they would not be frantically laying up for themselves treasures on earth but in heaven.
Hello Susan T. I've called the final plan the "Arm-a-Gideon end run" for years. The book of Revelation reads like a bad acid trip. That's why christians and jews pound sand so much...
Where's Leonardo Da Vinci when we need an artist to climb up a ladder and paint a sacred nationalist vision upon the ceiling of an architectural marvel? And Trump bulldozed the White House for less....

That's a scary start to my day. 😆
Israel and supporters are Terrorists with WMDs. One State Palestine.
Yes.
You are 100 percent correct. The Iraq War had nothing on this horrific conflict. The fact that we are fighting a war on Israel's behalf makes it even worse. This conflict is not in America's national interest, and anyone saying differently has a dual loyalty issue. They serve Israel, not America.
Iraq was 100% on Israel's behalf. Operation Shock and Awe killed between 7,500 and 10,000 Iraqi civilians and displaced a million in the first few days.
Most of the wars in the Middle East have been on behalf of Israel. Netanyahu has been the biggest mouth screaming about what nation is dangerous to its existence. Next country on the list, Turkiyie. So there you go. Routes and resources by any means necessary.
*All* wars in the region.
Possibly *all wars* full stop.
They are a cancer which has now metastasized. Only a serious chemo can stop them.
Well no. It's not like the US kings did it purely on Israel's behalf. They also had to satisfy the military-industrial complex, stop an oil-rich country from selling oil in other than US dollars--the petrodollar is the only thing allowing the US to run trade deficits and debt at levels that have other countries under IMF austerity regimes--and it wasn't letting US oil companies take most of the profits. The war in Ukraine, largely instigated by the US, was not on Israel's behalf.
ERETZ YISRAEL - That was always the Zionist Jews plan. Break up the Countries in the Middle East into small fiefdoms and Kingdoms so they can slaughter the Goyem and steal the land
Exactly. War is theft, period...
Remember how when obama was voted in to office, and people were all “a black man in office, oh things will change?” Haha , this is how naive we really were. Less so now one hopes.

You caught that, right!? Doesn't even say Israel, it says that it might not actually be the US that did it,
it might turn out that ******** "another responsible party" ********** did it.
Can't even say it. ＩＳＲＡＥＬ

Imagine :
You're eating dinner, asking your kid how is day went and then ..
He grabs a knife and starts stabbing you for no apparent reason.
You'd have him arrested & hospitalized or jailed immediately.
Now when a national leader behaves that way, we're standing around arguing whether to stop him him, ignore him, or join him.
It definitely feels like the end times.
David Korabell, you said, "He grabs a knife and starts stabbing you for no apparent reason."
The reasons are apparent but they've been ignored.
Leading up to that day when "he grabs a knife and starts stabbing you..." he's been getting away with unmitigated murder. He has not been held accountable for any transgression since the day he was born. He has been protected from anyone who would point it out that this child is a menace to society. He has been allowed to bully, curse, impede, demoralize, rage, and spew hatred towards anyone he pleased. His parents looked away, coddled him, excused him, protected him, fought others on his behalf or said, "Don't mind Johnny, he didn't mean it."
The USA is a baby nation, built on the genocide of the indigenous and the backs of enslaved Africans. None of its crimes against humanity have been dealt with and it has set itself up as the last word giving itself "veto" power. The world allowed it. The world joined with the USA in its incessant wars around the globe. The world joined in its crimes against humanity and lawlessness. And on and on.
In this instance, there was definitely a reason that "Johnny" grabbed a knife and stabbed his parents. He was given carte blanche to do whatever he wanted to do. What we see happening now, is the results of allowing "Johnny" to escape being accountable for his actions. All the way down to killing his parents.
His parents are the other European colonial powers whose children are their descendants living right here in the USA. The USA is largest colonial power in the world. 50 states plus numerous principalities which were all stolen by various European nations then taken over by the USA with its Manifest Destiny. The USA is a house of cards that is doomed to fall because it has been allowed to escape being accountable for its atrocities.
'Don't mind Johnny, he didn't mean it'
Perfect.
I was in the "Believe Hans Blix, not George Bush" camp back in 2003. For those old enough to remember, he was the United Nations inspector that was tasked with finding Saddam's WMD's before the invasion began. And his report basically refuted everything the Bush Administration was saying, so they kicked him out of Iraq.
He was the most truthful authority on Saddam's WMD program, which by that time had basically degraded to the point of uselessness. But far too many people were duped by Dubya, Colin Powell, and Condaleeza Rice.
I didn't buy it either. It was and is horrifying to see how casually people can burn and mutilate and kill other people's kids.
In the UK, we had Dr. David Kelly, who concluded the same thing. He suddenly and mysteriously 'committed suicide' after declaring there were no WMD in Iraq. He displayed no suicidal tendancies.
Actually, the war on Iraq had been in the making for a long time before the WMD propaganda was used. Iraq suffered sever sanctions and bombings and had been in the ire of the USA geopolitical eye way back during the Clinton era. Warmongering hit a fever pitch during the Bush era. Ironically, they bombed Afghanistan after claiming it was Saudi nationals that attack the USA on 911. That action set the template for what we see today. Pre-emptive strikes got hard wired into the warmongers' playbook with the claim of it being a war on terror. It set the stage for never ending wars, covering the fact that it was really all about routes and resources. Remember that pipeline they wanted to create through Afghanistan? Destabilization of the Middle East is all about routes and resources and nothing about Democracy, human rights or international law. Unfortunately, the rabble rousing for war after war after war, seems to have the ability to erase the memory of the masses who tend to forget how many times they have been duped into going to war for the benefit of the banksters.
David Kelly here did the same and he was suicided out of Blair's way.
Don't forget Cheney and Rumsfeldt.
The biggest differences is we (US) had been attacked recently. We also had good reason to believe Saddam may have been involved and may be in possession of WMD.
To the youth…You must understand that at that time it was not widely accepted that our government was actually devious enough to lie about such things. Democrats didn’t believe it but they really had no first hand knowledge; they just hated GWB. The thought that our government could have had something to do with the 911 attacks was also out of bounds. Turns out we were wrong about both.
The point I am trying to make is present day is far more insane. Hell we don’t even have a good lie to believe in nor were we wronged by Iran.
Now that has been made clear I believe karma will prove to be a real mother fucker this time around. I am going to call it right now, Iran has ALREADY WON. Trump cannot leave now. If he decides to cut and run Iran will lob more ballistic missiles at the Zionist State than they currently are now. The Strait of Hormuz will continue to be off limits and our bases will continue to be bombarded.
-We have dicked them over twice during negotiations
-We have targeted civilian infrastructure
-Murdered 150 school girls
-Cowardly killed over 100 crew members in an attack on their ship in International waters.
These are just a few things that come to mind. As God as my witness I never believed Trump had it in him. I have never been more wrong and never been more disgusted. But I can promise you this, unless Iran lets him off the hook (no clue why they would) he and his administration will pay dearly. We are all going to some degree. In fact, what is coming will most likely be to the detriment of the entire world.
The idea that Saddam may have been involved in 9/11 was always a false assumption pushed by the NeoCons in the White House. But those of us who understood the Middle East better than your typical American knew that Bin Laden considered Saddam an infidel and not part of his ideological boy's club known as Wahhabism.
I never bought the involved in 911 lie. I did however suspect he had WMD because he had used them before.
You know I was just thinking, Saddam really was a bad dude (I think). Not saying that is a legitimate reason for his removal. The reason I mention is because I have never really heard anything too bad about Iranian leadership? Saddam you would hear about torture rooms and the cruelty of his sons, etc. Got me curious about the Iranian Leadership. Like I said never really heard anything specific about them.
Luke: where the fuck you think Hussein got those weapons (and I assume you mean chemical)?
From good ol Uncle Sam, of course, when we armed Iraq against the wait for it—-IRANIANS!
Learn some history or shut the fuck up 🙄
gypsy33, so much for your bedside manner... however you are speaking the truth. Saddam was in the hip pocket of the USA, it was used in the 8 day war for the express purpose of taking down Iran with the WMD's it got from the USA. Then Saddam found out that he was disposable. If you dance with the devil, you can't choose the tune.
'To be America's enemy is dangerous. To be its friend is deadly'.
Nana: I lost my filter a loooong time ago.
🤣🤣 I hear you gypsy33, it can be hard these days to keep a filter with all the craziness that's going on.
Like Popeye the Sailor once said
"I've had all I can stand, and I can't stand no more!!!"
Do you speak English? If not I will give you a pass. If so you need to take some basic reading comprehension classes. You can start with Hooked on Phonics.
That’s called Half-Flint, Half-Cowgirl, little white boy. Don’t like my replies? Stop making asinine comments.
Come on, aren't we all singing from the same hymn sheet here?
We've got to stick together if we're ever going to get through this.
Ah but think, where did you hear about those torture chambers, USA media with possibly the odd " Iraqi" speaking about horrors and collecting his pay on the way out after a job well done.
Oldest trick in the playbook, they do it to any country they don't like. I'm not saying he was perfect but name me one countries leader that is? Besides there is a true version of a horrific leader in the White House now.
We only hear generalities like how the Iranian regime tortures and kills women for not wearing their hijabs properly or how they mow down thousands of protesters. The most recent crackdowns have resulted in almost 7000 dead, for example. Brutality and repression is the name of the game in the Islamic "Republic" of Iran.
Which is quite funny as the hijab does not have to be worn, though many women do like to wear it, but they can go the loose headscarf route if they feel better with something covering their hair or not wear anything on their heads at all. It's a Western myth.
They can hardly be as down on women as our media likes to say or university wouldn't be allowed, yet it's even stevens with the men, several of the scientists that US took out the first time round last year were women.
There isn't much sharing of trade secrets or porno\promo tapes among the nations of our world that consider torture a profession and maintenance of the facilities for both increasing the fear\mystique of the government by the governed and control over all entrepreneurial trade in people and pastimes along with goods & services to be both character building and good for the nation's bottom line as well as image among other, often neighboring rulers peering over borders never more subject to change.
Despite differences in major languages, ethnic groupings, religious & social prohibitions, not to mention which side of the Islamic divide one comes down on, role of women in society and rules for men and cross-border trade (along with mapping those borders and administering them dba taxing\shakedown rates and methods of payment) along with registration of all "private" property, maintenance of the 'Corrections System' and the 'Justice System' and controls governing Syria's bounty of natural resources and management of markets the recent dissolution of the ancient nation state of Syria is instructive.

I think it might be to the improvement of the entire world. Someone has to stop the insane US government, and if we the people aren't going to do our job, it will be up to someone else to do it.
The US government, at this point, looks to me like an elephant with a bullet in its brain rampaging around, stomping everything in its path without noticing, even its own people.
All of that is so very true. I would like to think of myself as a pretty brave fellow. Sometimes thinking about this stuff terrifies me. We are a combination of arrogant, deceitful, stupid, crazy, and flat out evil.
Most of the people are good but they are apathetic sheep. Sometimes I just want to scream and wake them. Sometimes I think it simply better they remain status quo.
Unfortunately, those are the dominant traits of those who lead us. And ultimately I cannot foresee a happy ending.
Great analogy.
We *wanted* to believe that Saddam may have been involved in 9/11 and may be in possession of WMD.
Correction duly noted 😉
Who is this “we” in “we had good reason to believe….”? Weapons inspectors were screaming from the mountain top that Iraq had no WMDs. Chris Hedges was abruptly fired from his agency spot at the NYTs for writing about it. The administration started screaming ‘Saddam!’ On 9/12 - the WMD allegations came when that bullshit was easily fact-checked, and Bin Laden claimed credit (after initially denying it, which always made his involvement seem a bit doubtful anyway.)
Initially a lot of high profile reporters opposed the WMD stories, and saw their reputations and jobs evaporate (Dan Rather received a forged document on a story that happened to be 100% accurate. When he fact checked the document, all sources pointed to the information being correct. When he shared the document, it was called out as a forgery, and the last anti war main stream journalist was destroyed.)
One could attempt to argue that Americans were somehow more ‘innocent’ back then… except this comes AFTER Vietnam, Nixon, Reagan, Iran-Contra, Salvador, Nicaragua, and Gulf I - enough data to point to determined and purposeful ignorance rather than some sort of blessed naïveté.
As you stated, very accurate. Looking back , most of us were not ready to accept how off the rails our system had already become. There’s still a great deal many of us that continue to hide I suspect.
Don’t worry about them, they’re running out of time. We all are now. The doomsday countdown has officially begun.
The only good thing that could come of this is if Iran wipes 'Israel' off the map. For good.
👍👍👍👍
He's definitely bitten more off this time than the US military will be able to chew.
It's egg on their face big time.
Luke, you said "To the youth…You must understand that at that time it was not widely accepted that our government was actually devious enough to lie about such things"
In my view, the only people who didn't know how devious our government was are those who lived under a rock.
There were so many other events that preceded 9/11 in which our government outright lied and covered up its complicity it ain't funny. The only people who didn't see the lying politicians are the ones who were never impacted by their lies. Those of us who were, knew full well that the USA and its governmental leaders were and continue to be big time liars.
One of the biggest lies and cover-ups was the assassination of JFK. But there were plenty before and plenty more afterwards.
Luke, your first paragraph is bullshit.
This war and Gaza are examples of Eminent Domain at gunpoint. Taking these lands to build Greater Israel to benefit the elites that Trump has on his Rape of Gaza
Committee.
Isn't this always just the Marketing strategy employed by the military industrial complex? Increase the budget to expand markets and use part of that budget for Hollywood to inundate us with propaganda movies, control religions and influence policy. You must manufacture an enemy to manufacture consent.
The trajectory of a dying empire. Iraq: massive forces with large coalition. Libya: NATO air campaign and paid-off local proxies. Syria: chemical false flags and partnering with ISIS. Yemen: a parade of aircraft carriers running for cover while bombing civilian infrastructure. Iran: became canon fodder for the Israelis while watching every US base in West Asia go up in flames. Soon to see carrier battles groups pulverised. I’m sure Shakespeare had something to say about this kind of thing…
"... few die well that die in a battle." ~Henry V, #Shakespeare
"The U.S. attacked Iran because Netanyahu said so." And why does he have DJT on such a leash? Don't we all understand that the answer lies in the Epstein documentation? Riddle solved.
There are no words to describe the sickness of a human being that would literally end all life on earth rather than face the consequences of his guilt.
Once you understand that we are ruled by sociopaths, everything they do makes perfect sense from that perpective.
It does... except even sociopaths want to live. Don't they?
(And I don't call surviving in an underground bunker slowly running out of tinned tuna 'living')
If that is what they have to do so that nobody else can be on top.
They'll find themselves on top of nothing. A barren, uninhabitable wasteland with nobody to rule over. Wonderful.
Ever seen "Don’t Look Up!"?
"Don't we all understand that the answer lies in the Epstein documentation?"
That most probably doesn't exist any more in DoJ files, whether Trump did it or it happened earlier. But Trump has every reason to believe -- or he knows -- it exists elsewhere.
Do you want to know why I want to know who the guilty parties are, because people are so busy worrying about the survivors who I agree should get justice, they forget the most important thing.
Pedophiles never stop, one supplier goes away, they find another. Old age doesn't seem to come into it. Over here Ted Heath was still at it until he virtually died as was Cyril Smith, I could name more but that's enough to prove my point.
Any serious consideration of Bibi's POV and motives should first consult with the latest online storehouses of info on his various court proceedings still in process since his last court date and process of his various well-recorded trials both civil and criminal (I speak not of metaphors here). Here are just a few from his solo and previous partnerships that preceded the current career phase dubbed by some global Muck Rakers as the TrumpanYahu Proceedings:

To a point but more than that, did you know to be allowed to live in Israel community you have to have at least a quarter of Ashkenazi Jewish bloodline ( I don't know if normal Jews think the same), Trump's Bavarian great grandparents were Ashkenazi Jews, he's definitely got a quarter.
Where do you get these voidoids? They're not even factoids? You should at least have the grace to note your source. It would no doubt be some kinda boon to the dyed-in-the-wool racialists who've despised Trump since his days in what White Racialists (some even with verifiably Jewish family roots that go back as long as surviving and verifiable birth\hospital docs, albeit Racial is often a psychological choice as there is plenty of ways to cease being Jewish and\or start being Jewish that have nothing to do with maintaining genetic 'purity.' Scriptures and Sages won't bring any certitude to this human construct of 'Racial.' Disagreements have preceded the scrolls and scholars as to whether matrilineal or patrilineal descent pertains.

I can only tell you what Netanyahu and one of his Rabbi's said on who can live within the Jewish community. So kind of the rules of whose running the show there at the moment. Where I heard him say it I couldn't tell you, few years ago now.
I do not touch wikipedia but that's me.
And that kind of evidence is debatable, there are many things said in UK and in the USA that are totally different to what they used to be but books remain the same.
It goes much farther. I myself am not taken in by religious superstitions, however billions of people are. Israel is the ANTI CHRIST by definition. Jews are the people that had Jesus crucified though he was a Jew. He told them the temple on the mount would be destroyed, it was history and geology show it. NO GID fearing Christian or Muslim doubts the word of God . There has been a Muslim(Islamic) shrine on that site that is holy to both Christians and Islam. The Jews want to destroy it to bring about the return of GOD. This will most certainly spark religious war worldwide. Exactly what the ANTICHRIST WANTS. That US military is being indoctrinated to assist the destruction of this holy place is well documented. Yet Christians and Catholics In US are buying this crime. That is Bat SHIT crazy because it is guaranteed to create chaos in the military across America and the world.
It's a bat shit crazy idea to think that you can invoke the return of a Messiah into a world that is wrecked by heinous destruction. If anything, it would invoke the return of a force that is essentially negative and destructive.
If Israel is the Antichrist, what does that make its favorite little slave, the USA?
