The Maelstrom of the Iran War

The US war against Iran didn’t start in late February 2026. This war, part of a larger complex of conflicts, has been going on in one form or another since 1979. Indeed, since 1953 when one considers the CIA coup against a democratically elected socialist government. Then again, the Cold War was on, and the Cold War was an existential mess between two mutually alien systems. Millions died despite the “cold” nature of the conflict, too. Indeed, one can easily go back to 1914 when the Ottoman Turks and its enemies the British and Russians all invaded Persian Iran during the First World War. Later in the Second World War the Soviets and the British invaded and divided up Iran. The Middle East is a cauldron of wars and conflicts, but Donald Trump is no Alexander the Great.

He is a corrupt, oligarchic buffoon with the attention span of an infant surrounded by incompetent sycophants who feed his fragile ego. Furthermore, the quasi-fascistic and corrupt authoritarian regime of Israel’s Benjamin Netanyahu has led Trump figuratively by the nose directly into the biggest, worst maelstrom in the Middle East in ages. This is not a war for Israel’s survival as much as it’s a dog of distraction to suck people’s attention away from the grotesque wickedness found in the Epstein Files. Trump comes up numerous times in those files in ways that allegedly point to his participation in gross criminal activities. There are additional controversial mysteries connecting the sex and trafficking scandals of Epstein’s dark web to Israeli government agencies including intelligence, which, of course, the Israelis deny. All of this demonstrates the incompetency of Trump and his shameless cohorts.

This war is also a significant distraction from the release of the so-called UFO Files and the push for full Disclosure of UAP (Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena) and NHI, Non-Human Intelligences. Trump launched his wag-the-dog war just days after first Obama and then Trump upon an airplane set imaginations ablaze with their goofy, uncomfortable chatter about “UFOs and Aliens” with Trump declaring what Obama said is “classified” and he might have to get Obama “out of trouble.” There is an Israeli connection to NHI issues as well. In 2020, Haim Eshed, the highly respected, retired former military general and intelligence officer who both served as the director of the Israeli Space Program and in related covert space programs for decades, declared there exists a Galactic Federation of Non-Human species, and we Earth humans are not yet ready for membership. Eshed also alleged US presidents including Trump know about these ETs. If these allegations regarding technologically-advanced NHI are indeed true as nine decades of claims by numerous credible people, imagine what these NHIs may be thinking as they observe and evaluate us Earth humans destroying ourselves, our global economy, and further damaging our biosphere? Are we distracted from the Iran War yet?

Existential Voting

We’re already in the Crossroads of History

The people of the United States of America already stand or sit in the crossroads of history. If you are a citizen and registered to vote, vote. Do not skip it. Vote even if you do not live in one of the so-called battleground states. After all, you have state and local candidates and issues to chose from as well. Sometimes what you vote for in state and local elections will have a great effect on your daily life than who sits in the White House. Except this time. This election, the Election of 2024, has shaped up to be the most consequential election since 1860 back when the USA was descending into all-out civil war. One could argue, no, since 2020, except Donald Trump, who manipulated the Election of 2016 to usurp power, lost to Joe Biden. Now here we are in 2024 upon the eve of Election Day.

The existence of our constitutional democratic republic is at stake. Continue reading

Trump: Indict and arrest this man

What’s the holdup? Why all the cowardice?

For what reasons are Republican politicians and their media cronies bending over backwards to protect ex-POTUS Donald Trump? Why do they screw up their faces and decry efforts to indict, charge, and arrest him as disgusting, disgraceful, or worse? Of course they holler “It’s political!” as a slur, especially when it suits them to say so. They thus live in a nest of their own lies and denial because, come on, they’re politicians! Everything is political! Understand everything has a political aspect. There isn’t anything inherently right or wrong in recognizing the political nature of human relationship dynamics. Trump, however, is a known manipulator of facts and thrives on distortions of truth. He and his ilk are why the public perceive politicians as, sadly, all rank and foul.

Trump should have been arrested and thrown in jail years ago. Cowardice and fear clearly paralyzed efforts to do so. Evidence demonstrates he was likely a Russian asset (an asset, not an agent), usurped the 2016 election, triggered and even encouraged racist, antisemitic, and neofascist violence, and engaged in an attempted a coup in 2021. Trump can and should be charged with several counts of treason as well as multiple counts of corruption. Period.

For what reason do Trump’s supporters among the GOP believe the former president is above the law? There isn’t any reason other than pious “outrage.” Are they afraid of being targeted next? Do they believe all presidents are above the law? Why do they want to go after Obama and Biden then? Have they forgotten the Founding Fathers and the early presidents they so exalt warned repeatedly of people who seek to behave as kings? Or even become kings? Or in today’s parlance become authoritarian, autocratic presidents-for-life as Trump so desperately wanted? As George W. Bush, despite the warnings of many on the Left and even on the Right, did not want? Did they not warn us of engaging in “factions” or political parties to the point one’s country takes a back seat to party politics? How in the world can such highly educated people be so stupid? Be so damn dumb? Continue reading

Putin is Stupid and Dangerous

*Like many bullies are*

The former President of the USA, wannabe autocrat and racist protofascist Donald Trump was, thank God, profoundly incompetent and too slimy to do anything correctly. The dictator of the Russian Federation, however, and his cowardly, quivering, greedy followers are a fucking, stupid mafia of corrupt, incompetent despots. Fucking dumbasses, every single one of them! And as dangerous as rabid rats stuck in corners of blood, madness, and fear. Putin and his nasty siloviki, the Russian intelligence/surveillance-military/security komplex, have gutted Russia to facilitate their imperialist, fascist fantasies of Glorious Empire. 

How DARE they threaten the planet with nuclear weapons! How DARE they spout lies and distortions of Eurasian history as “historical truth!” Are they aware Muscovy was initially a backwater feudal principality that despite its grandiose title as a Grand Duchy was still a part of mighty Kievan Rus’? Do they know Muscovy was part of a loose confederation centered in what is today Ukraine? And all conquered by the Mongol Empire? With Muscovy being a vassal of the Mongols? That upon independence from the Mongols/Tartars was ruled by bloodthirsty butchers such as the deranged Ivan the Terrible? Have they considered why all empires dominated history with failure? So how dare Putin thinks he can do whatever he wants to do to build an empire before he dies in office?

Vladimir Putin the Invader has been corrupted and isolated by his quest for power and supremacy. He’s sat on the throne for too damn long and has become impatient, chaotic, confused, and frightened. Putin’s become as angry as a schoolyard bully after those he beats up sneak up behind him and quickly jerk his britches down to reveal such a little man. Not even Donolf Trumpler’s “very big, very large, and very, very, very powerful” hands could come to the rescue. And what the hell Old Trumpie’s little big hands gonna do with Old Pootie anyway, pet a cheeseburger in bed? Continue reading
