Our Useless Wars
So why do we fight these wars? The plebes don’t want them, so why fight them? We fight these wars because the big boys want a bigger cut of the action. Our wars have nothing to do with saving democracy or social justice. That is just the cover story that the big boys give in…

The Quagmire That Keeps on Giving
What’s going on in Syria? What’s going on in the larger Middle East? What’s going on in Syria is what Benjamin Netanyahu referred to on October 8, 2023. He said that the Middle East was going to look completely different. As a member of the club, a graduate f MIT, and the leader of Israel,…

We’ll Never Be Ready For Anihilation
Mark Milley and Eric Schmidt write an article in Foreign Affairs entitled, America Isn’t Ready for the Wars of the Future. In this article they state that the US is far behind other countries when it comes to robotic warfare. I’m a little confused because Israel, our ally, is far ahead. Given that we send…

Iran and Us
Why do Iranians not like us? Why do they give us so much trouble? Is it just because they don’t like our way of life as our leaders might suggest? No. There are definite reasons why the Iranians do not like us. Number one, we overthrew their democratically elected government in 1953. Our CIA went…

The Kemp Doctrine
I have a novel idea of how we can achieve peace in Israel. I call it the Kemp doctrine. It is named after Jack Kemp, who believed in peace through strength, and, of course, the 600 ship Navy (never the 625 ship Navy). The idea behind this is that if we build up our military,…

Premeditated Destruction
There are many critics of Israel’s policy regarding Gaza. Frequently they praise the supposed sneak attack that Hamas undertook on October 7 against various Israeli kibbutzim. I’m not sure why these critics go down this pathway. Maybe they look at this attack by Hamas as an indication of Israel’s weakness. Or maybe they view this…

Shame at Columbia
Well, those young people at Columbia University and the other schools sure are giving it to the establishment, aren’t they? They are giving these preening fat cats a lecture on American democracy. They are telling them in no uncertain terms, if the establishment would only listen, what this country is about. Our leaders, the people…

The Right to Exist
From time to time, we will hear the media talk about Israel’s right to exist. This will often be mentioned within the context of a supposed Jew-hater saying that Israel has no right to exist. What does it mean to have a right to exist? Does any nation have the right to exist? I would…

True Protest
The other day Congressman, Rick Allen, lectured the president of Columbia University, Minouche Shafik. He asked her whether she knew a particular verse in the scriptures: Genesis 12:3. “I will bless those who bless you, and curse those who curse you…” The verse relates to God giving Israel to the Jews. He then asks the…

Welcome to the War
Welcome to the dog and pony show known as the upcoming Middle East war. It will be a totally unnecessary war. It only exist to make the wealthy Harvard and Ivy League educated elite – who own and run our corporations – wealthier. As I have stated, previously, all corporations benefit off war, because when…
