Ending The US Presence In Middle East

Ending The US Presence In Middle East

The Biden administration, in its utter stupidity, is launching a(nother) full fledged war throughout the Middle East. U.S. launches retaliatory strikes after deadly attack on Jordan base - Washington Post - Feb 3, 2024The operation, targeting numerous sites in Iraq and Syria used by Iranian forces and its affiliates, followed the killing of American troops last weekend U.S. forces launched a broad attack against Iran’s powerful military wing and affiliated militias in Iraq and...

Biden Says The US ‘Does Not Seek Conflict In The Middle East’ While Actively Dropping Bombs There

Biden Says The US ‘Does Not Seek Conflict In The Middle East’ While Actively Dropping Bombs There

The Biden administration has begun its latest bombing campaign in the middle east, reportedly dropping over 125 munitions on more than 85 Iranian and Shia militia targets in Iraq and Syria on Friday.  The mainstream press have been falling all over themselves to describe the strikes as “retaliatory” in nature, framing it as a provoked response to a drone attack which killed three US troops at a base on the border of Jordan and Syria. Which is a bit odd, given that this...

The Tragic Self-Destruction of an Enraged Israel

The Tragic Self-Destruction of an Enraged Israel

Israel is boxed-in, as is becoming very evident to many Israelis. One Israeli correspondent (formerly a Cabinet Secretary) illustrates its nature: “The meaning of the 7th October default is not only the loss of lives … but mainly the potential transformation of how Israel is perceived … as no longer to be feared by Middle Eastern actors.”“The Israeli leadership must internalize that we can no longer be content with a “sense of victory” among the Israeli public … It is doubtful...

The Feds Are Buying Our Emails!

The Feds Are Buying Our Emails!

“The Framers ... conferred, as against the Government, the right to be let alone -- the most comprehensive of rights, and the right most valued by civilized men.” -- Justice Louis Brandeis (1856-1941) While we are all consumed with Joe Biden’s bumblings and Donald Trump’s trials, the federal government’s rapacious appetite for spying on the private behavior of Americans as to whom it has no suspicion of wrongdoing continues unabated. Last week, Sen. Ron Wyden, D-Ore., revealed that the...

Terrible Tragedies Continue In Unjust War

Terrible Tragedies Continue In Unjust War

The CBS national newscast on Jan. 20 showed the terrible anguish of a father holding a photograph of a little girl who had been killed a few days short of her first birthday by an Israeli bomb in Gaza. This father and another little daughter had just been pulled out of the rubble, fortunate to still be alive. Unfortunately, the dead little girl’s mother, brother, another sister and three of her uncles had all been killed in Israel’s massive bombing campaign. According to the Euro-Med Human...

Nuland ‘Sets The Record Straight’ On US Forever Occupation Of Syria

Nuland ‘Sets The Record Straight’ On US Forever Occupation Of Syria

For several days there has been a flurry of reports in both independent and mainstream media outlets suggesting the US could finally withdraw American troops from Iraq and Syria. These reports spread widely especially before the Sunday drone attack on a US base on the Syrian-Jordanian border, which killed three American soldiers and injured over 40 more, according to revised casualty figures. For example, Foreign Policy reported last Wednesday that the White House is actively reviewing...

China ignores US entreaties of mediation

China ignores US entreaties of mediation

There is an old proverb that when misfortunes come, they come in battalions. Coming on top of reports of American soldiers going down like nine-pins on a drone strike against the super secret CIA station for intelligence and covert operations on the Syrian-Jordanian border, ’nyet’ is the word from Beijing to the Biden administration’s entreaties seeking  intervention with Tehran to rein in the Houthis of Yemen, against the foreboding backdrop of the Axis of Resistance expanding...

Heading For the ‘Texit’?

Heading For the ‘Texit’?

The clash between the Biden Administration and Texas spilled out into the open last week, when the US Supreme Court ruled that Federal authorities could remove razor wire that Texas Governor Greg Abbott had been installing along the border with Mexico to stop the millions of illegal immigrants from crossing over to the United States. This time Abbott did not back down. Instead, he issued a statement declaring that “an invasion under Article I, Section 10, Clause 3” of the US Constitution is...

‘Black Hawk Down’ For Biden in the Red Sea

‘Black Hawk Down’ For Biden in the Red Sea

The breaking news that Ansar Allah (Houthi) fighters have fired on the USS Carney in the Red Sea today (Friday, 26 Jan.) underscores the shocking failure of the Biden Administration, which initiated airstrikes on the Houthis this month with no plan for “victory” beyond hoping that the mere presence of US warships would intimidate them into surrendering. Even a junior Pentagon or State Department analyst could have advised the Administration that, based on everything we understand about the...

After US Again Bombed Yemen, Houthi Attack DoD Transport Ships

After US Again Bombed Yemen, Houthi Attack DoD Transport Ships

Two days ago I discussed the reported hope the Biden administration has to get China's help in the U.S. conflict with Yemen. To Hope That China Will Help With Yemen Is Delusional Bullshit - Moon of Alabama, Jan 23, 2024 Chinese ship do not get bothered by Yemini forces. They only targeted ships were related to Israel and, since the U.S. and UK bombed Houthi positions, ships related to those countries are also under attack. We have now learned why U.S. officials had expressed...

Watchlisted: You’re Probably Already on a Government Extremism List

Watchlisted: You’re Probably Already on a Government Extremism List

According to the FBI, you may be an anti-government extremist if you’ve: a) purchased a Bible or other religious materials, b) used terms like “MAGA” and “Trump,” c) shopped at Dick’s Sporting Goods, Cabela’s, or Bass Pro Shops, d) purchased tickets to travel by bus, cars, or plane, e) all of the above. In fact, if you selected any of those options in recent years, you’re probably already on a government watchlist. That’s how broadly the government’s net is being cast in its pursuit...

Government by Experts

Government by Experts

I have often thought that after Abraham Lincoln, Woodrow Wilson was our worst president. By worst is meant least faithful to the Constitution and most destructive of personal liberty. With the exception of Lincoln’s dictatorship -- during which the federal government used violence to crush the states’ natural right to secede from a union they had voluntarily joined and instead brought about the systematic murder of 750,000 persons -- America from its founding to the early part of the 20th...

Neocon Freak-Out as Biden Contemplates Iraq/Syria Withdrawal

Neocon Freak-Out as Biden Contemplates Iraq/Syria Withdrawal

Neocon heads like the Middle East Institute’s Charles Lister’s are exploding with the news today that the Biden Administration may be considering withdrawing from its illegal occupations in both Syria and Iraq. First on Syria. As Lister opines today in Foreign Policy: …four sources within the Defense and State departments said the White House is no longer invested in sustaining a mission that it perceives as unnecessary. Active internal discussions are now underway to determine how...

Wisconsin-Madison Under Fire Over Mandatory Anti-Racism Training

Wisconsin-Madison Under Fire Over Mandatory Anti-Racism Training

The University of Wisconsin-Madison is at the center of another controversy this week over its diversity training program. The mandatory diversity training at Wisconsin instructs students that “people of color” are incapable of being racist. That claim has long been voiced by radical elements in academia, but its incorporation into a mandatory training program has raised new questions over the leadership of President Jennifer Mnookin, a former UCLA law professor, and Law Dean Daniel...

Netanyahu’s Shape-shifting ‘Endgame’ – It Is No Ploy, but a Reversion to Earlier Zionist Strategy

Netanyahu’s Shape-shifting ‘Endgame’ – It Is No Ploy, but a Reversion to Earlier Zionist Strategy

The late Ariel Sharon, a long-time Israeli military and political leader, once confided to his close friend Uri Dan that, “the Arabs had never genuinely accepted the presence of Israel … and so, a two-state solution was not possible – nor even desirable.” In the minds of these two – as well as for most Israelis today – is the “Gordian Knot” that sits at the heart of Zionism: How to maintain differential rights over a physical terrain that includes a large Palestinian population. Israeli...
