Words have meanings. Every single time that an Israeli soldier kills a Palestinian, the world screams “MURDER!” I support Israel, AND I support Saudi Arabia and Iraq. All three nations are doing incredible work to improve the Middle East. Therefore I don’t criticize these countries publicly. Others can do that. However, it’s time to make…
Hidebound is another word that everyone should know
July 3, 2016
The reason that I’m a hermit is that most people are far too repulsive and belligerent for me to allow in my life. This is especially true in my main field of interest. Military buffs tend to be aggressively ignorant and hidebound. Because I don’t think like them, they’ve begun the fifth large-scale round of…
Psychopaths are reporting the news from Iraq
July 2, 2016
I learned in 2014 that most western journalists are psychopaths, meaning they lack a conscience and have antisocial tendencies. The current depraved version of events in Iraq is a perfect example of what these creatures produce.

When a peasant hands over thousands of cocoons and says “his friends” found them, the collector becomes suspicious. It turns out that the Brazilian…
Iran is directly arming the Islamic State
June 29, 2016
“Idée fixe” is a term that everybody should know. It means a viewpoint that will never change. One such idée fixe is that terrorist groups with opposing ideologies will never work together. This is false. Because they have converging interests, terrorists engage in “coopetition” or “cooperative competition.” I knew that Iran supported the Islamic State….
Rules of engagement must be changed to defeat terrorism
June 28, 2016
Terrorists attacked Istanbul Attatürk Airport today, using assault rifles and suicide bombs to kill at least thirty-six people. Dozens more are wounded. A troubling video emerged: Despite the decades of violence, it seems that too many security forces still don’t react efficiently. The world must adopt new rules of engagement that allow security forces to…
Extraordinary circumstances require extraordinary solutions
June 26, 2016
Today an angry man contacted me. He said that I have no right to post my theories about what Saudi Arabia is doing in the Middle East. Since he claims to be active-duty Saudi Special Forces, that would seem to give weight to his words. However, he’s wrong. Everybody who reads my posts knows that…
