American embassy now located in Jerusalem.

-------------------------

I am to understand that the permission to move the American Embassy in Israel to Jerusalem was granted some time in the mid-90's.

Meanwhile, through the years, this President and that President, Democrat and Republican, caved to Muslim demands that the embassy remain in Tel Aviv.

This is mostly because to move the American to Jerusalem is to acknowledge that, duh, Israel owns the land and NOT Palestine.

There's never been a country named Palestine and now, some 50 years after surrounding Muslim countries sent all their criminals to live in Palestine, next to the Jews, Palestine is still a dump billed with thieves and fight constantly with Israel.

Please get those people out of there. Israel is our best ally in the Middle East and I know that Kerry, Obama, the Clintons, even Dubya Bush, all probably got some kind of bribes to not move the embassy but…

….along came Donald Trump.

Finally, doing the right thing and stopping the damn games.

On 5/14/18 the American embassy in Israel was moved to its proper place…Jerusalem.

And the Palestinians acted like the assholes that they've always been.

Now who is surprised?

The Royal Wedding

------------------------------

I am listening with one ear to the coverage of the Meghan Markell upcoming wedding this Saturday with Prince Harry.

Meghan's got things to handle, first one being her father. Who looks a lot like Harvey Weinstein, by the way.

Seems he arranged for some paparazzi to get pics of Meghan and he now has been banned from the royal wedding.

Now the father is all regretful and stating he wants to walk his daughter down the aisle.

Ahhhhhh,….how well I remember Princess Di, a woman lost in turmoil, youth and confusion.

Diana regularly called up the media to hint about an upcoming gym trip. And does anybody really think she was found by accident in that boat with Dodi Fayed?

Diana also had a cardiac surgeon from Pakistan who she was obsessed with. Only he now so much with her.

And now they're making fun of Meghan Markell's goofy Dad?

Hey, I wish them both well. Stay tuned this week and we'll be watching how this wedding goes.

Some idle political notes

--------------

Goodness I was so surprised at Melania's operation and her week scheduled for recovery.

Had that been Michelle Obama there would have been thousands of writers and pundits at the hospital, candles in the rain, hourly updates on condition.

Here's wishing Flotus Melania a speedy and good recovery.

---------------------------

So the hero John McCain remarks that Rand Paul is working for Russian premier, Vladimir Putin.

He's allowed to say that with no repercussion? That young lady who remarked on McCain's imminent death is still being harassed that she should apologize to the entire world, including the pygmies of Austrailia and the rats of Europe.

Yet John McCain, whose life story will fill the movie theaters after his death cause this guy has quite an awful record.

The McCain movies will make Chappaquiddick seem like a child's cartoon.

-------------------------------------

I watch Giuliani on Laura Ingraham's nightly Fox show.

Rudy, I dunno, he tends to have words come out of his mouth, at times with little prior thought.

Anyway, Giuliani said that he was told (Rudy now is Trump's lawyer in this never-ending, useless Mueller investigation) by the Mueller team that President Trump will not be indicted.

Well of course not. He didn't do anything wrong.

Santa Fe High School shooter who killed between eight and ten people has been named as student Dimitrios ‘Dimitri’ Pagourtzis. Pagourtzis, 17, shared chilling photos on his – now removed – Facebook of a ‘Born to Kill’ t-shirt shortly before Friday morning’s massacre.

Harry and Meghan wed

-------------------------------

Why yea I did get up in the morning and watch.

Lovely event.

Her dress was very simple, boat neck, huge long veil. Harry wore his uniform and his brother, of course, was Best Man.

Meghan Markell's gone a long way beginning with a boring, lower-class life.

On a personal note……

…….so I am sitting in a pew yesterday with my friend Diane Feinstein. Wow, what a story she has….could be a novel.

A few weeks ago I wrote a missive about how Feinstein and I ended up in a pew with Robert Goulet’s singing match, a young man with a beautiful voice.

And there was Diane and I, both of us singers, of a sort, so we sing along with Robert Goulet and the whole church was listening and pointing.

So today, guess who’s up at the podium, serving as Cantor?

Turns out his name is John. Feinstein and I went up after mass and introduced ourselves, asking if he remembered us.

Which he did.

Anyway, it was Pentecost and I forgot all about. At the mass beginning, guess who comes walking down the aisle, complete with flame-enhanced vestment? None other than Father Thomas Flowers!

This is no big deal in that Father Flowers is a priest and he and I have an intriguing history. I’ve already written the book.

Anyway, after greeting the Cantor after mass was over I see Father Tom, who has been on leave of absence for the past six months, a very ill man, almost died….I see Father Tom going out the church side door and I wonder if he’ll even remember me as I go out that side door all the time.

Diane Feinstein walks out in front of me, shakes Father Tom’s hand and walks off, waiting for me.

Father Tom, by the way, has had every disease and yes, he does (or did) weigh about 300 pounds. Yesterday he looked positively great.

So comes my time to greet the returning Pastor and before I could say a word he grabs me, pulls me to him, lifts me almost off of my feet, and kisses my cheek.

This in front of everybody.

Sheesh.

Well I guess he did remember me. Diane Feinstein, who has an usher totally smitten by her, comes and grabs my hand. “Come on,” she says like she’s my mother, “I’m getting you away from him.”

She wasn’t mad, just that was Feinstein’s job back six months ago, keeping me away from Father Tom, but only in a humorous fashion if you will.

What the hell? You can’t make this stuff up.
