An especially foul depravity is supporting murderous governments or groups as an act of adolescent rebellion. I’ll admit this: When “social justice warriors” went to Iraq to help the insurgency and ended up getting decapitated, I thought it was funny. I have many flaws, the worst being that I never forgive. But I’m getting better….
Iranian military leader confirms plan to cause Armageddon
January 16, 2016
Paging Sean Penn. Mr. Penn? You said that the traditional Iranian chant of “Death to America!” shouldn’t be taken literally. What do you make of this? Iran has prepared almost 200,000 young men in countries across the Middle East to help with the arrival of the Mahdi, a Muslim leader who will usher in justice prior to…
Avoiding the mistakes that western powers made in the Middle East
December 28, 2015
I urge everyone to take some time and watch videos put out by the Syrian Democratic Forces (QSD). Although the QSD are fighters, they’re also a political movement that was created in the hopes of avoiding the many blunders that the West has committed in the Middle East since forever. It appears that the greatest…
Quds Force chief Qassem Suleimani is still dead, I’m pretty sure
December 27, 2015
There’s no doubt that virtually every significant Iranian and Hezbollah commander in Syria has been killed. The list is incredible. Though some people say that this is because Iranian leaders go to the front lines to rally their men, I don’t believe it. I think Saudi and allied commandos are doing the killing. The National…
Good conspiracy theories should be at least slightly plausible
December 23, 2015
Attention hog Seymour Hersh claims that the United States Department of Defense Joint Chiefs of Staff—the highest-ranking bureaucrats in the Pentagon—gave Bashar al-Assad intelligence to help him defeat jihadist terrorists. This isn’t even a good conspiracy theory. Hersh made it all up, as is clear by his claim that his source is a “former senior…
Paper tiger revealed in Syria, say Israelis. Guess who?
December 20, 2015
I always loved the phrase “paper tiger.” The communist Chinese invented it to describe the US. My mother was a great fan of folded paper doodads. This is the sort of thing she did. In July of this year, I became convinced that the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA)—the Iranian nuclear deal—was an international…
Islamic anti-terrorism coalition deeply confuses the “experts”
December 16, 2015
What’s the best way to win a war? The answer: Make it impossible for your enemies to know what’s really happening. Yesterday Saudi Arabia announced the formation of an Islamic coalition to fight terrorism. Today some people are gloating that it’s “already collapsed.” Saudi Arabia’s coalition of Islamic countries against terrorism is starting to look like…
Hope springs eternal in the hearts of the Iranian mullahs
December 11, 2015
What keeps the mullahs of Iran going? Hope. They think that if they just continue funding and fomenting terrorism, eventually the rest of the world will give up and die. This conviction has finally backfired spectacularly. Bahrain’s king holds Hanukkah candle-lighting French Rabbi Moshe Levin says King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa ‘truly loves’ the…
Everything you’re hearing is wrong
November 17, 2015
Most of what I post is based on conjecture. However, I’ve studied military matters—specifically weapons, munitions, tactics, and strategies—for forty years. Therefore I make guesses that are generally proven correct. The best armed forces in the world don’t advertise their capabilities or operations, so nobody is confirming anything to me. But I can tell you…
Protect me from my friends
October 29, 2015
I can’t write a long post tonight because I’m on a new medication. It makes me extremely groggy. The effect should wear off in a couple of weeks. Therefore I’ll recycle an old post and add to it. This is about the notion of who or what we can depend on to protect us. Since…
