Big news from Syria, Sinai, and Iran

When there’s big news, back pain must be put aside. First, we have this. The British government has suspended all flights between the UK and the Egyptian resort of Sharm el-Sheikh after US and UK officials said they believe the Russian plane that crashed over the Sinai peninsula may have been brought down by an…

Brace yourselves: We’re almost there

The things I do for the people who want to know the truth. I’m in agony right now because of my back, but this is too important put off. Brace yourselves. We’re in for a bumpy ride. At the end of it is sunshine—maybe forever. First, some lines from Wilfred Owen. Bent double, like old…

Stupid is the new smart

Today the IDF tweeted a photo of Israeli soldiers tying to save the life of a Palestinian who’d gone all stabby and had to be shot. In response, someone posted a link to a Website. Maybe my new medication has robbed me of my inhibitions, but I had to write about this because I’m sick…

The most important story you haven’t heard

I love being the bearer of good news. This very important story has been buried by nonsense, fear-mongering, propaganda, and agenda-driven lies. I don’t know how Israelis and Jewish people will react, but however you feel is the proper response. It’s perfectly legitimate for you to be conflicted. The tempo of these dramatic changes is…

A diplomatic solution for Syria?

Reader Aqeel Yousuf sent me a question: “Now that the foreign ministers of Russia, Saudi Arabia, and Turkey met with the American Secretary of State in Vienna on October 23, does that mean a diplomatic solution to the Syrian civil war is possible?” Well, yes and no. Mr. Yousuf appears to be a very young…

Gratitude will get you through

Last night I went to meet my brother Eric and his girlfriend at Los Angeles International Airport (LAX). They had a long layover, so Tim and I picked them up, took them to their hotel, had dinner with them, and then came home. It’s the longest trip I’ve made in four years. I’ve changed completely…

The mullahs decide to accelerate their extinction

I’m posting early today because I have to go to Los Angeles International Airport and meet my brother Eric in about two hours. But I just wanted to point out that Iran has chosen extinction over survival. The mullahs have, I mean. Iran itself will be liberated fairly soon. It’s clear to me that the…

A little reality for the folks

Supporting Israel and the Saudi-led Coalition fighting in Yemen makes me the target of hysterical morons. They have no factual knowledge. I have to admit that now it entertains me. I enjoy being able to see things that the average putz misses. To my great surprise, someone has put together a short film that shows…

You either support civilization or you don’t

Today I read an infuriating article by the Associated Press, an organization that pines for the destruction of civilization. Well, as long as members of the Associated Press get to live in civilized enclaves, of course. The rest of us can go die, apparently. This is peak craziness. It won’t last for much longer. Arab…

This is why the world is a mess

I’m an optimist. My view is that in the long run, we’re destined for improvement as a species. The reason that the world is a mess is that far too many people are crippled by idées fixe. They know nothing, but they have strong opinions and act on them. These are the classic low-information citizens…
