    The inability of the criminal Zionist to self-inspect is made even more mind boggling by the sheer totality of their selfishness. They are SO selfish that it doesn’t enter their mind to even start to consider the possibility that they are pathologically self-centered. They are SO self-centered that they don’t know that the other person is even, really, THERE.

    What makes it even more ironic is that the God these Zionists purport to worship has reportedly gone down on record, MANY TIMES, warning these “Jews In Name Only” to NOT be that way or act that way. . . . . or else! In fact, according to the very same law books that the Zionists pretend to believe in, God said that He would punish them severely if they din’t straighten up and fly right. It wasn’t the first time time that He had to speak to them about such matters. Nor would it be the last.

    For folks who tout their own intelligence so highly these Zionist “Jews-In-Name-Only” sure do seem to be slow learners.

    Zionist Israel (the current crop especially) obviously feels no sense of irony or moral contradiction whatsoever in explaining that it is completely justifiable and right to kill Palestinians civilians indiscriminately en masse (man, woman and child), peacefully living in their own land, BECAUSE (wait for the key line!) the entire population of Palestinians refused to escape the walled, locked and guarded prison they were being held in at the time that the guards gave them 24 hours notice to leave.

    The scariest part is that the Zionist Israelis actually do believe that this criminally insane moral aberration adequate reason to do what they did. The explanation is simplicity itself. Sociopathic criminals actually DO believe that it is their RIGHT to impose their selfish will (violently if so desired) over the human and universal rights of whomever they choose. They believe this because the only persons they actually believe and know to exist are themselves.

    They base this absurdity on a claim that God told Abraham a few thousand years ago that it was okay to be a sociopathic criminal who was entitled by God (by the Universe itself) to do anything to anyone simply because they wanted to.

    Incidentally, the official records concerning the alleged verbal contract (basically, we’ve only got Abraham’s scribes’ word for the event actually happening in the first place, and these words were written centuries later) are a little problematic. It seems that the original documents (held for safe-keeping by the claimants themselves) have gone missing a few times. In fact the copies of the COPIES of the alleged originals have gone missing. No one is challenging that SOMETHING happened way back when, but even the truest of true believers are still fiercely debating about precisely what that something really was, or who did what to whom and why.

    Should also mention that the chain of ownership and genealogical proof of identity of the present claimants about “who’s who” have unfortunately got lost in a bunch of fires down through the years, but trust me, that’s what’s what. This place is mine, I kill people who don’t agree with me about that, because God told my grandpa that it was mine to with as I please, forever, even if I’ve sold it it, lost it in a high stakes poker game, or abandoned it for a thousand years, so you’ll just have to take my word for it….. and move your ass off of your own land within 24 hours because I’m going to drop a bomb where you’re standing. You’ve been warned, so you don’t have a leg to stand on….. literally.

    That’s it. That’s the “reasoning”. I wish there more, but there ain’t. To a Zionist Israeli THAT bit of psychosis is what makes it totally okay, virtually mandatory, to commit cold blooded mass murder of innocents. Indiscriminate annihilation for the crime of existing.

    Ya know, I think I’ve heard something like that before. Oh, yeah, now I remember. It was in an alley in a bad part of St Louis many years ago. I was walking home late at night when a guy steps out of a darkened alley, asks me for a light, and then sticks a gun in my face. He said that if I didn’t hand over everything I had then he was just going to have to shoot me and take it anyway. I should have told him that he didn’t have to settle for being an armed mugger, he could be Prime Minister of Israel. But instead I handed over my watch and wallet as directed.

    Israel’s justification for genociding Palestinians isn’t a reason. It’s a confession. It is admitting to premeditated first degree mass murder for hire. Simple as that.

    Oh, and about that God contract thing. Well, 2000 years absence without so much as a mail drop or forwarding address is a long time to let pass before coming back and to revive an old handshake type deal. Heck, man, how do we even know (like for SURE) that you’re even related to this Abraham guy? And there’s a really knotty legal issue about whether you can go on OWNING something after you have legally SOLD, ABANDONED and FAIRLY LOST the something in question. And that’s to not even mention whether Abraham held up his end of the deal. Sure looks like a broken contract to me.

    You’re welcome to argue the case and present evidence if you want to Abe, but you’re going to need a good lawyer.

    The “Black Swan” meme gets used a lot, but I don’t think most people understand it very well. In fact, I have never personally heard or read anything by anybody that said outright or even implied that the writer or speaker in question had the foggiest inkling of what it actually meant.

    Most people just offhand the expression as a quick and clever way to convey that some presumed fact had been unexpectedly proven wrong. In other words, the black swan is a sort of negative proof that catches the unwary unawares, a type of “dis-proof”. It falsifies (to use the nomenclature) an assumed fact by showing that a presumed sacred-cow-fact is NOT in fact a fact at all. Surprise!

    After using the meme to bury the cow they are then done with both, altogether. Job done. Case closed. On to greater things.

    They never seem to examine the flip side, the side that includes the equally incontrovertible factors which HAD to have preceded and caused the black swan event to be possible in the first place. That’s too bad, and worse than a shame, because the flip side (with all of its inescapable implications) is way more important than the event. Incalculably more important.

    For one thing, unlike the false assumption that it dismantles, the black swan datum is not a theory. The idea that all swans are white is a theory, and the magical notion that money can make money is a theory too, as is the principle that governments are formed to serve citizenry. These are all mere THEORIES (and in these three cases pretty damn flimsy theories at that.)

    But a BLACK SWAN EVENT isn’t a theory. It is the demonstration of a FACT. How rare is that? I mean, really. Look back or forward or all around your own experiential track. How many data are there about which you can be 100% certain? Damn few, I reckon, so when you do occasionally find one it’s pretty important. WAY more important, typically, than the fleetingly current event that produced it.

    Let’s use our United States (and MOST places) elections as a convenient throw-away example. The white swan belief is that elections are elections. The black swan fact is that NOT all elections are actually really and truly elections. It only takes ONE successfully rigged “election” to prove it.

    The factuality of it is way more important than the election , but that’s ONLY known by you if you recognize that the “black swan” fact, is indeed a solid gold pure-dee factual kind of fact. Not a theory. Not an opinion. Not a second-or-worse-hand report. Not “probable”, but pure and unconditional. And that facts have causes, which in turn have preceding causes, and so on. Without exception. This what makes them so priceless. Full closure at last!

    Apply the Scientific Method to that newly established actual FACT (that not all elections are actually elections) and off you go down a twisty garden path, and into a warren of rabbit holes that wind up in a place . . . which if you persist and don’t chicken out and quit . . . is neither what nor where you thought it would be.

    For example, example #2. I won’t be sarcastic this time, because there’s nothing funny about it, not even sarcastically.

    There exists world-wide the “white swan belief” that governments are formed to benefit (or at least try to benefit, in some way) the interests of their citizens. That belief is simply and absolutely not true. It is a lie. The black swan event, the broad daylight fact which falsifies and disproves that lie beyond the shadow of doubt, is that all government throughout the world, without exception, have tolerated the kidnapping, torture, sex trafficking, indiscriminate murder and human sacrifice of children. Denial of the fact merely adds absurdity to the perversity, (and ironically proving, by dint of being an explicit evasion) that it is not even a secret. Everybody knows it, and everybody HAS known it, since deep antiquity.
    And ever since deep antiquity, every time it happens, the civilization of those responsible as been wiped from the face of the earth and its traces ground into dust. It has happened many many times and we are involved in it happening again.

    All sorts of murderous mayhem can be survived, or even conditionally tolerated, without collapsing an entire civilizational system, but when a child is callously murdered then every member of that society must make it their duty to relentlessly track down and permanently dispose of every perpetrator of that most heinous of all crimes and severely punish all who enabled it in any way. To tolerate anything less than that seals the fate of that society. It will die because without children it cannot possibly live, and its passing will be a cleansing of the Earth.

    If the ongoing travesty remains unpunished then the governments of Israel, the United States, Europe and all who enabled them in that crime will have condemned themselves to extinction, and deservedly so. That’s just a fact.

    Back to math class. Precisely half (minus one) of the people are stupid, relative to the other half. Whether either half is smart enough is being determined. Call it a high-stakes gamble, but I wouldn’t put much money on that poor average bastard who’s dead center on the Bell Curve.

    Looks like the Khazarian American Empiren (former Khazarian British Empire, re-branded) has plans well under way to use Israel against Islam the same way it used Ukraine against Russia. Certain words and phrases spring to mind, like battering ram, proxy war, wedge, divide and conquer, canon fodder, disposable diaper.

    Probably going to turn out the same way, except much bigger this time (if the fake money holds out long enough), and brother there is going to be a shit-ton of money to be bilked on this one.

    Y’all will probably want to postpone that Bible Group Tour of the Holy Lands for a while or two, and just generally avoid traveling anywhere east of Crete until the ashes have a few years to cool down.

    (@aspnaz and his cheerleaders are welcome to read, too)

    Continuing effort to hold these boys’ feet to the fire regarding the minimum acceptable standards of logic and reasoning may or may not be having a beneficial effect. I think there are a few positive signs that it is, but then I tend to be an optimist, and it is a slow grind at best. Nevertheless, one thing is certainly true, their writing skills are improving . . . a little.

    Now if only we could only get them to be a bit more honest and forthright about their identities and agendas. In other words, stuff like name rank serial number, country of origin, the political sigil on their battle flag, and the fragrance of their cologne. Their cologne, for example, whiffs of Stepan Bandera and Chairman Mao.

    The effect of equating Anti-Zionism with Anti-Semitism is that the incautious (unconscious?) minds of the world are being prepared to blame everything on the Jews, and to consequently take it out on them. . . again.

    The ploy is being implemented by Zionists, of course, and these so-called Zionists are no more Jewish in actual fact than is a stone. They simply use the words and other trappings as camouflage.. Before the last few millennia they used other words and other trappings and other camouflage, but the nature and purpose of these so-called “Zionists” has always been the same, and has never been good.

    By their fruits you will know them. If you try to identify them by any other measure you will be deceived, and of all of their other despicable traits (such as blood lust, boundless greed, insatiable thirst for power and deriving sexual gratification from child murder) it is deceit that is their most defining characteristic.

    To the Jews of the world (and especially to those who are most convinced that they are God’s chosen people) I implore and advise that you take heed of the obvious, and re-examine the very nature of deception, which in its most basic form is simply the holding of a false or misleading belief.

    You have been led (perhaps willingly, or maybe just through endless repetition or mental laziness) to believe that you are the chosen ones. You must ask yourselves, chosen according to whom, exactly, and chosen for what? Have you been deceived into a false belief?

    From the earliest recorded times the Jews have been known as The People of the Book, and that the Book says that God chose you to rule over all of the world and all of the people and things that are in it.

    But is that actually true, or have you been deceived by Zionists? The evidence is all around you, written in the blood of slaughtered children and spoken in the inconsolably anguished cries of their survivors.

    Don’t tell me what the inked words in a book MIGHT say (for there are countless interpretations). Tell me what God says.

    I say this because the Zionists are laying YOU upon the sacrificial altar, and there is not one God damned holy thing about it.

    I’ve got good news and bad news. Which one do you want first?

    Alright, good news first. The good news is that there is so much bad news. That’s what happens when truth comes out. Most of it is truthful revelations about bad stuff, and it is just so BAD that it can make you feel like everything is bad..

    It’s when bad things are reported as good news that you better find a place to hide, and I think you know why.

    And the bad news? Oh, that. Well, the bad news is that there is a lot more truthful news on the way. We’re just getting started.

    I hope this has clarified the news for everybody.

    Hate is in the air …. everywhere.

    To borrow from (and only slightly modify) a well-worn figure of speech in this battle, the closer we get to the target, the heavier gets the flak.

    I’m waiting with bated breath for the anguished cries of ostensibly Swiss bankers and Germanic Royals when the Zionist funding sources start getting hit with beams of sunlight. In comparison they will make gibbering banshees sound like Bing Crosby.

    The rest of the world’s position in regard to the United States has been like that of a family tyrannized by a heroin addicted father. They got together and decided that the only way out was to help the homicidally abusive bastard to drug himself to death. I feel almost personally embarrassed at how quick and easy it was. Basically, all they had to do was buy, bribe and blackmail a bunch of politicians, most of whom were already two thirds of the way to Hell, and hot to cover the last lap.

    Now comes the tricky part: not being devoured by the new monster that was created and used to take down the old monster.

    It’s exactly the same game as before, but at a much higher level of play. Truth Good and Knowledge vs Lies, Evil and Ignorance.

    I think you are underestimating the size (geographically and geo-politically) of Gaza, Hamas, and (far more importantly) the planet-wide distributions of populations who share the mindset of Gaza and Hamas.

    The 10 x 30 rectangle of Gaza is a besieged city, Like St.Petersburg in WW2, but it is not even CLOSE to the size of the battlefield, which stretches from Syria to Yemen (a tad more than 2,000 miles), that is overwhelmingly dominated by Muslims (literally billions of them).

    A properly managed war of attrition against US backed Israel has only one possible outcome, which is no more Zionist Jewish Israel and no more US Empire in the Middle East (and probably anywhere else, either).

    Aside from being an unacceptably horrible explosive device (and the second dumbest thing that the human race has ever managed to accomplish on its own), what IS a nuclear bomb anyway?

    In a word, it is assurance of sovereignty.

    When all else is said and done, if a country has deliverable-long-range nukes, then nobody can absolutely force that country into abject slavery. No matter what kind of humiliation and subservience they can be “persuaded” to accept, they nevertheless retain the ability to set their own “red line” on what they must take “like it or not”.

    This is not to say that any country should ever use them, or even COULD use them (and expect to survive), because the simple fact is that they would NOT survive, that would be suicide. The United States has taken fantastically exorbitant advantage of the fact that it (alone among all nations) has DEMONSTRATED the willingness to use nukes to blow up somebody else who did not themselves have nuclear weapons with which to retaliate.

    Carefully note that the United States hasn’t nuked ANYBODY since that time, and that it is highly unlikely that its restraint has been based upon humanitarian intent. It was based solely upon self preservation. The other side has nukes, too, in fact they the other side has “better” ones (MUCH better, in the sense of how utterly unsurvivable they are).

    It all comes down to an important stratagem listed in the “The Art of War”. Do not press the enemy into a corner from which they cannot escape and will certainly die (like an actual nuclear attack would certainly be) because they will fight to the death and take you with them. ALWAYS leave an easily accessible route of escape (such as a negotiated end to open warfare) because when they are faced with a choice between certain death and/or imprisonment or the route of easy escape they will always choose escape. In other words, rather then die in their footsteps they would prefer to live to lie, cheat, steal, maim and kill another day.

    That’s what’s going on in Ukraine, AND is just getting started in Israel/Palestine. It takes a while, but when calm minds prevail over outraged emotions, then the outcome is just as certain and WAY less risky. The desired outcome is to de-criminalize the Empire of Lies, and reduce rampant evil to almost acceptable levels, not to blow everyone up, ourselves included.

    In other words just carry on, steady as she goes, easy does it, even if it isn’t very easy.

    One day soon the Hamas drone operators will figure out how to get their little hand-grenades to blow up while still 20 or 30 feet above the ground …. and the ground game will change dramatically. How long do you suppose that will take, maybe a week or two?

    How long before Israeli ground forces spend most of their time looking anxiously for drones in the sky instead of looking for Hamas in the rubble? They’re as likely to die of whiplash as they are of violence.

    How about this: UNARMED $25 apiece hobby-grade drones (available by the truckload from Best Buy or Ali Baba mail order) sent in swarms toward seriously armed and defended Israeli armored vehicle formations. The tanks can’t assume that the drones are harmless . . . . because maybe some of them AREN’T harmless. . . and therefore are obligated by common self-preservation to fire millions of dollars of high tech defensive ordinance to shoot hundreds of toys out of the sky. Once the anti-drone-system ammo runs out (in minutes, not hours) then the armored vehicles with their multi-jillion dollar Raytheon weapons systems become sitting ducks for $500 dollars a pop REAL tank-killer drones, or even ground troops with bazookas and a bad attitude.

    Just as a deep cave can easily become an unmarked grave by sealing its accesses, a tank is just a portable coffin when not actively protected from the outside, especially if the “outside” is full of properly equipped martyrs-in-waiting.

    If Ukraine is the fall of WW2 Nazi Germany in slo-mo, then GAZA is Ukraine in Fast Forward. We are watching the de-militarization and de-Nazification of Israel, followed by NATO and finally the United States.

    Good. I’m fed up with being lorded over by bloodthirsty lunatics. Why not let the Palestinians live wherever they want and put the Zionists, globalists, politicians and bankers in Gaza? It’s been perfectly prepared to suit, the wall is already there, and the accommodations and current living conditions are exactly what they need.

    Thanks for the video, Doc, and for reminding me of one of the Navys only two redeeming characteristics. First was that ships are great (standing helm through a storm and the Straits of Gibraltar were life-time quality memories), but the REAL biggie, of course, was the uniforms.

    the descendants of all those people you like from your bible stories? Yeah, we’re bombing them. Doesn’t matter to us. Wanted you stupid Americans to know.”

    Wanting a stupid person to know something is like wanting a stone to grow, but that obvious fact is actually totally beside the point anyway.

    You think that stupid Americans are the reason that Zionists steal things and murder children? Wrong.

    The only reason that crimes are committed is that mentally/spiritually deficient perpetrators want to obtain things and commit crimes to get them. The yak yak, obfuscation, justification and rationalizations that come later are just bullshit. Reasons, excuses, and endless nit-picking irrelevant details, etc. are simply attempts by the perpetrator to deflect attention from the crimes onto things that don’t matter, and stall for time to do it again.

    This does not excuse stupid Americans from crimes of their own, but let’s stay focused on the real perps, okay? Dropping out of a useless school to drink beer watch TV is NOT comparable to deciding to drop Bunker Buster bombs onto refugee camps full of women and children, and bad mouthing Billy Bob is not going to do ANYTHING to solve the problem.

    Apropos of nothing, Erdogan does not receive the respect he deserves as the greatest plate juggler and “both ends against the middle” player since Josip Broz Tito. It’s a skill honed by years and decades of living between large mad dogs, but requires a truly rare combination of skills and personality traits (not all of which are fully mentally healthy) that come together in a single individual perhaps once in a century. You don’t have to like the guy to admit that he serves the peoples of his nation and region with a beneficial effectiveness that possibly no one other than him could hope to match, and at a time when they need that service more than at any time since the rise and fall of the Ottoman Empire.

    Drafted into Army but allowed to serve in Navy, for bureaucratic reasons not worth detailing.

    I’m not “having a go at you”, BUT, your posts and expressed attitudes and opinions strongly suggest to me that your own background and life experiences have left you with some sort of “incomplete” or unusual experiential track that is interfering with your world view. Without getting too personal about it, is there something that might explain this? Preacher’s kid? Raised in a country or culture other than the one you were born into? School for brainy kids? Give us some background, because this continual bad attitude towards me is really tiresome and both uncalled for and unnecessary.

    I find it spookily coincidental that both @DrD and @aspnaz mentioned my brief US Navy “career” on this particular day, especially since I have made so few references to it, ever, and none recently. In fact, my sister asked me about it the day before yesterday, as well, which makes It three instances in three days on an event have not expounded upon in more than 50 years (1968 to the present). Apparently, Universe wants me to talk about it at this time.

    I’ll try to be as brief as possible.

    Because I had a few unusual qualifications, immediately upon starting active duty in the US Navy I was recommended to a relatively low-level position that nevertheless necessitated Top Secret security clearance because the job might at some point require that I forward orders to launch nuclear weapons. This clearance involved lengthy interviews and interrogations, during which I unequivocally informed the Navy that under no circumstances whatsoever would I comply with such an order because it would quite possibly result in the end to all human life in a nuclear holocaust, and I would have no part in that. Period.

    This defiance resulted in what is called an Administrative Discharge Board Hearing, during which I told the Board that although I was decidedly NOT a so-called “conscientious objector”, that I took the matter of whether or not to take human life very seriously, and for that reason would simply NEVER allow anyone else to make that decision for me. If, for example, if someone (anyone) tried to force me to kill when I had not myself personally decided that it was necessary to kill, then the person attempting to force me to kill-on-command (commit murder) might well become the person who it was necessary for me to remove in order to avoid being made into a cowardly murderer, or even worse, a mass murderer.

    Remarkably I was formally discharged from the Navy within less than 24 hours, and even more remarkably (amazingly, in my opinion) it was with an Honorable Discharge (and I’ve got the original DD214 to prove it).

    So, no, aspnaz, I have never conspired to take the lives of brown skinned people, but as earlier stated I am also NOT a so-called pacifist, and do not allow others to commit crimes against me, my loved ones, or anyone else either, if I can help it.

    I get under aspnaz’ skin by using a secret device, against which there is no defense (because it’s impossible to defend against something that is not an attack). I just state an agenda-free truth as best I know it, and then stand back and let it do its work. His intelligence eventually gets the best of his pride and prejudice and voila!

    Ania K interviews Scott Ritter on Israel/Palestine again, and once again he is brilliantly articulate and, most rarely of all in today’s vlogosphere, non-evasively honest. Another great interview, don’t miss it.

    Do authoritarians deserve a chance to be treated with grace and forgiveness?”

    Sure they do, and that chance is based on them gracefully and non-evasively admitting to the crime they want to be forgiven for.

    Fat chance.

    Are the USA Jews or the Israel Jews in command; of course ultimately it is the Israeli Jews”

    Ya think? Then why is Netanyahu such a Yahoo? I had always pictured the Masters of the Universe as having a bit more sophisticated gravitas, brainpower and real estate acumen. Benji Boy is just a brutal thug and garden variety idiot to qualify as a first string Crime Meister. Is he a congenital criminal? For sure. But MASTER criminal? No fucking way.

    Every boss has a boss, and since the Zionists just haven’t been around long enough to be that boss then they are NOT the boss. That Zionist gaggle of genocidal ex goat pokers from the steppes have proven to be apt pupils and dependably nasty goons, but they can not possibly be the boss. Their newish dynastic bloodline is just too damn short, by many millennia. You mistake the goats for the goatherd, and haven’t even considered that goatherds have chieftains, and that chieftains have kings, and kings have dynastic emperors.

    Taking out “The Jews!” would have about as much effect on the long-term situation as spraying for flies in the kitchen with the windows open.

    Israel criticizes and attempts to condemn Hamas in the eyes of the world as a “terrorist” organization that both deserves to be wiped from the face of the Earth and which Israel believes itself capable of doing (with help from its dupes and captive minions). Zionist Israel invites and encourages pure ravening hatred to such a degree that the obsession can only be called the outright worship of mind consuming hatred. Satanism is not too strong of a word for it.

    But the sad truth, heart breaking fact and bitter irony is that Israel is doing all of this TO ITSELF. Israel purposefully created Hamas, raised it to power, and then waged a campaign of calculatedly intolerable terror against Palestinians which drove Hamas (through the existential necessity of preserving the lives of women and children) to become a force which Israel CANNOT wipe from the face of Earth, and which will, instead, inflict that fate upon Zionist/Jewish Israel itself. In a very real sense, Israel trained Hamas HOW to defeat its torturer, and then gave it both the necessity and the means to do so.

    Zionist Israel is the terrorist, and always has been. Israel is the monster which the humane world must (through the sheer necessity of preserving its humanity) now remove from the face of the Earth. And in this case the rest of the world is indeed capable of doing just that, and must, and will.

    There is a message contained in this horrifying debacle, and it is that the contemplation, worship and attempt of willful murder for personal gain ALWAYS ends in the ignominious destruction of the murderer. It is the slowest, protracted and most exquisitely painful way to end, because on the way down to total oblivion it passes through every single stage of agonizing raving insanity and loss.

    Hate kills itself, horribly. Dying that way is something you should not wish upon even your worst enemy.

    Thank you for the step-by-step on posting photos here. Now all I need is more inspiration and less procrastination.

    At this point I believe there should be no Israel but there should be a Palestine. People should learn to get along, live together and be good to each other.”

    That’s the way I see it, too. Why have a so-called “Two State Solution”, when all that is needed is one state that behaves itself? So long as the rest of the world recognizes Zionist Israel as a legitimate legal entity then the criminality, violence and suffering will continue, because Zionism is illegitimate, violent and criminal by its own statement of purpose and intent.

    A couple of hours after I groused about the edit controls that had been mysteriously missing from the comment writing interface they (equally mysteriously) re-appeared. I ain’t complaining. Magic is fine with me.

    As for posting pics created locally (like on my phone or other computers) the process requires that I FIRST post the graphic somewhere else online that will then provide the posted graphic with a URL which I can reference using the IMG button that is now magically resurrected in the comment writing interface. I could go through that rigamarole I suppose, but it’s much faster and easier to just complain about it.

    Scott Ritter on Israel. In the first 10 minutes says it all, and then he REALLY gets down to business and says it ALL. Don’t miss this one guys. CelticBiker might swoon.

    I propose a minor edit of the Golden Rule.

    Do unto others what you would have them do unto you, because, Brother, that’s precisely who’s doing all that stuff to you.

    I would give up a leg and half of an arm to be able to post my own hand drawn illustrations on this forum, because sometimes a simple diagram or picture is worth a million words.

    I will TRY to do it with words that reference pictures that you have already seen.

    I reckon that we have all seen the joke picture of a hand holding a pistol with a barrel that makes a U-Turn back towards the person whose hand is holding the pistol.

    Label the pistol “Free Will”, or label it “Vote!” or “Power”, whatever. You get the idea.

    @DrD
    [ As quoted from your comment . . . . and boy, do I miss the formatting functions! . . .]
    ” Michelle Obama posting a hashtag to raise awareness. So many lies, I can’t root each one, but a commenter was like, “Noooooooooooo!!!! The point of a hashtag is to raise awareness TO YOU. To get it TO Michelle Obama and the President’s desk. When it arrives THEY have the power. THEY are supposed to do something, not uselessly hashtag themselves because…presumably THEY, Congress, the President, have no power either????”

    Senator, thanks for bringing this up, NOW DEFUND, IMPEACH, AND ARREST EVERYONE. You see, — I – can’t do that. I’ll be put in solitary for life for protesting. But YOU can. This is also what AOC said. “Well, I don’t have any power, so we’ll have to…” Whuuuuuuut? STFU. I’m happy to believe you but if YOU don’t have any power, do tell, woman. WHOOOO has the power then if Congress and YOU do not?”

    Senators, congressmen, First Ladies (allegedly), and all others of that ilk do not seek power FOR others. They seek power OVER others. That’s the wholepoint of government to begin with. Can you picture some happy savage in Eden waking up one morning with the thought of, “Gee, I sure wish God or somebody would drive me out of this place and Lord it over me!”

    Some day, hopefully, it will dawn on each of us as individuals, and collectively, that the free will which we miraculously possess is all of the power that anyone in their right mind would ever need (or should every want) to possess to turn this joint into Heaven on Earth.

    It is only when we delusionally seek to achieve the impossible task of imposing that will over the free will of others (always at THEIR expense, mind you, because we do not ourselves personally actually HAVE that power!)) that we run into problems. And why? Well, because it’s IMPOSSIBLE, that’s why! The closest we ever get is to LIE about it, and trick others (and ourselves) into believing that it is possible to get more than we give. “Hey there guy, if you give up your self-determination by doing stuff for me, then I will give you back even more than you gave me, and all sorts of other cool stuff, with INTEREST !” We’ll get more than we started with, see?”

    It’s no demonstration of genius to see where THAT gets us, EVERY single time.

    The “power” goes to the biggest liar.

    They will not give you what they promised because they CAN NOT. No one could. It’s impossible.

    But to prevent that Ponzi scheme from catching up with them they will tell attempt ANY lie, any crime, any utterly batshit lunatic ploy, to avoid the simple truth that the whole mess STARTED with their willful attempt (by lying) to get something that they were unable to get for themselves.

    Want to see a fight to the death? Try to get a psychopath to admit that they were wrong (destructively evil), ON PURPOSE, so that they could HAVE something they wanted, but without paying the full consequences which they KNEW were going to result when they did it.

    @Ilargi

    Today’s painting is gruesomely apropos to the ongoing behavior of the empire de jour. For those of us not familiar with Greek and Roman mythology, here’s the blurb from Wikipedia explaining the painting, “It is traditionally interpreted as a depiction of the Greek myth of the Titan Cronus (known as Saturn in Roman mythology) eating one of his offspring. Fearing a prophecy foretold by Gaea that predicted he would be overthrown by one of his children, Saturn ate each one upon their birth.”

    Like Israel devours Palestine? Like America devours Europe? Like The British Crown devours America? Like every centralized government devours its citizens? Like the Cabal devours the whole fucking planet?

    No wonder so many people want to stop the world to get off.

    To make sense of WHAT Netanyahu is doing and saying, and WHY he is doing and saying it, it helps to understand WHO he’s saying it to and doing it for.

    In other words, who’s his target audience, and what’s the message he’s sending to them?

    Well, as for “who”, he is talking to his political base, the ones who put and keep Zionist Israel in power, and who did so on the basis of iron clad guaranteed assurances that, regardless of their crimes against Palestinians and the world, that Zionist Israel would keep them SAFE from justice and retribution for their crimes regardless how heinous. He’s telling them that the government of Israel has their back NO MATTER WHAT, even if it means total genocide of the rightful inheritors of the land. That was the promise, and Bibi is telling his base that the promise still holds (along with the POWER that he, and collaborating “Israelis” derive from it) even if it means killing EVERYONE else.

    So he’s right about one thing. He’s right to be scared shitless of the consequences in store for him (and them) when the reality of his actual ability catches up with him.
