When I began defending Israel in June of 2014, I was shocked at the blatant lies told by Human Rights Watch, Amnesty International, the International Committee of the Red Cross, and the United Nations. Well, the lies told about Saudi Arabia are worse. The difference is that the Saudis are willing to use ruthless judo…
Immigrants: Here’s what I experienced in Japan thirty years ago
January 7, 2016
Europe has decided to accept hundreds of thousands of Muslim immigrants, but the Europeans feel that it’s wrong to demand that these people behave the way pale-skinned non-Muslims are expected to behave. The reason that European authorities are paralyzed is that they’re motivated entirely by an obsession with differentiating themselves from those who they see…
Time to stop worrying about nonexistent “hurt feelings”
January 6, 2016
What a difference five days make. The fact that downtown Cologne, Germany, is now a “no-go area” for women made me decide that it’s time to explain what’s happening in Syria. My little blog won’t change a thing anyway, and we need to puncture this deranged balloon of protection we’ve put around Muslim criminals. I’m…
Reductionism is fun, but it won’t solve any of our problems
January 5, 2016
One of my genuine hatreds in life is reductionism, the attempt to reduce extremely complicated issues to a soundbite. In my experience, most people who do this are narcissistic gasbags. Through the magic of reductionism, the current conflict in the Middle East is described as Sunni versus Shi’ite. This is simply not true. The reality…
Clandestine military operations are smart military operations
January 4, 2016
My new obsession is clandestine military operations. For the life of me, I can’t understand telegraphing your intent this way. Crack SAS troops are in Libya preparing for the arrival of around 1,000 British infantrymen to be sent against ISIS there in early 2016. Special Forces including military close observation experts from the Special Reconnaissance…
Experts and their opinions are becoming more and more unreliable
January 4, 2016
If you feel lost when it comes to figuring out what’s happening in the Middle East, don’t feel bad. Although I don’t feel lost, it’s because I’m insane. Wait: Did I write that or just think that? At any rate, most of the experts are worthless. I’ll explain why in a moment. First, here’s an…
New Middle East in one photo. I was 100 percent correct
January 1, 2016
I hate the people who I call “gore crows.” They can’t wait to tell you bad news. It’s a form of sadism. And to be honest, I no longer have patience for those addicted to fear and negativity. The new Middle East arrived in late 2008, and now it’s revealing itself. When I say, “Everything…
Jews and Arabs united are impossible to defeat in battle
December 31, 2015
And you thought I was crazy! In July of 2015, I became convinced that Israel and the Arab League had made peace at the end of 2008. I based my supposition on Israeli arms sales to Arab nations that began in 2009. Israel sold incredibly advanced technology to countries that don’t even recognize her. This…
Judging others and finding them wanting is how you survive
December 30, 2015
Two great films are The Omega Man and its remake I Am Legend. The second version has an alternate ending that they ultimately rejected. However, the fact that they filmed it shows how corroded our morality has become. For some reason judging is now considered so wrong that you’re supposed to view even homicidal lunacy…
