Who is responsible for the hatred of the Jews? 6 billion people in the world, or 16 million Jews? It is just an honest question.

I don’t hate them, but they can live or die by their own efforts like the Muzzies, the invaders from the South into the US or my next door neighbor. THEY ARE NOT MY PROBLEM OR RESPONSIBILITY. At least until they start poking their nose into my home. The US policy seems to be, to make the entire world our problem. They do that by fighting them over there, and bringing those who hate ME into my Country to purposely screw with my life.

You are entirely correct. Having bases in places where we are not wanted, is provocation. These trigger points are designed to give us a reason to blow things up and kill people.

worse than you think - worse than just ‘bluffing’... it’s election strategy.


Former Obama Aide: Don’t Bomb Iran Oil Fields—Higher Gas Prices Bad For Biden!

Yesterday, we noted a hawkish Joe Scarborough calling for an aggressive response against Iran for the drone attack that killed three US soldiers and killed dozens of others in Jordan.

Jen Palmieri, Obama’s former Communications Director and another Morning Joe regular gave away the game, putting things in bald political terms.

Scarborough asked, “What’s the administration’s problem with going in and taking out some of their oil infrastructure?”

Responded Palmieri: “Higher gas prices.”

Scarborough: “I don’t care. Dead Americans.”

Palmieri: “Anytime you’re doing anything that’s going to mess with oil markets, higher gas prices are — can be an existential threat to a presidency.”

As a retired Navy Captain, I am personally and professionally embarrassed and appalled EVERY time I see/hear the WOKE Rear Admiral Kirby speak/lie on behalf of the Sloe Joe/The Hoe criminal administration.

Because I am an Officer and a Gentleman, I will reFRain FRom further comments, but you FReepers do get my meaning, do you not?

We would not be in the mess we are in had we kicked the crap out of the North Koreans!

Or had we kicked the crap out of the North Vietnamese!

Teddy got it right: “Speak softly and carry a big stick!”

Instead we allowed panty waist Communist politicians to take over and bit by bit nibble away at our world dominance to the point that now we are feckless and unwilling to take the lead in FReeing the world FRom the totalitarian LIEberal/Socialist/Marxist/Fascist/Communist/Democrats who are intent on destroying Western Civilization!

We MUST get it right in 2024 and elect Donald J. Trump POTUS 47 and give him a righteous conservtive House and Senate!

LET’S ROLL!

I guess Israel should have rolled over and played dead.
