An ability to know something without requiring proof or evidence. That’s intuition. I do use evidence for my micro-theories. For example, when I wrote that Israel and the Arab League jointly developed new weapons. First I saw a video. The soldier walked away uninjured. Because the video purports to show an American BGM-71 TOW antitank…
Times when it has indeed filled the sun
March 15, 2016
When I started publicly defending Israel in June of 2014, I became the object of the most depraved hate I’d ever encountered. I thought Jew-haters were the bottom of the barrel, but I was wrong. Times were not tough at all back then. In the past few weeks, I’ve been called a racist, a member…
Trump is not the problem. Do you know who is?
December 9, 2015
On December 7, 2015, Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump said that as president, he would temporarily stop Muslim immigration to the US “until our country’s representatives can figure out what is going on.” Predictably, all hell broke loose as demagogues accused Trump of demagoguery. Nobody spoke about this. My view is that what’s good for…
My latest acquisitions
June 27, 2015
I can’t post tonight for a variety of reasons. Mainly, I’ve had to spend the evening with my cats, who are terrified of the skyrockets that my slobbering, obese, mentally subpar neighbors have begun shooting off. My neighbors buy illegal Mexican municipal-level fireworks that are fired with mortars, so you hear a loud bang, three…
Angel of death, angel of mercy
June 3, 2015
A short post tonight. I’ve remembered that which I’d blocked out all my life. It was time, apparently, because remembering hasn’t destroyed me. Instead, it’s explained everything, including my lifelong fascination with the Angel of Death. I’d always loved Saint Michael the Archangel. I’m not religious, so it might seem strange that one of my…
Flamethrowers! For Ellie
March 22, 2015
A post about flamethrowers dedicated to Ellie Kesselman, who brought my attention to this. It uses gasoline (petrol), and has a range of 26 feet (8 meters.) The flamethrower was first used by the Greeks in AD 673 to burn Muslim warships besieging Constantinople. This weapon consisted of a metal tube that sprayed what was…
Fire burns, but…
December 13, 2014
Last night I had a dream that was brought on by hate mail. It was a very unpleasant dream, but it led me to finally understand why I’ve been so doggedly building up the planet’s largest collection of World War I flamethrower photos. Hate mail caused the dream, the dream made me go through my…
Why I’m optimistic
July 5, 2014
You may have heard of Kendall Jones, the teenaged cheerleader who goes big-game hunting in Africa. People call it a sport, but I don’t apply that term to life-and-death struggles. I’d much rather we leave wild animals alone. If there’s a need to cull them, I don’t think we should have our pictures taken cuddling…
