Jerusalem eviction case back with Israel’s high court

The ongoing daily reality comedy we know as “the news” is reporting cheerfully on President Obama’s “legacy” and his feverish attempts to fossilize it into place. Evidently, Obama is burning the midnight biodiesel and will work harder over the next month even more than he did for the last eight years. Now, this is usual Democrat “lame duck” crap like pardoning convicted felons, establishing environmental protection for the habitat of the South Chickawallup Warbling Mosquito, and stashing billions of taxpayer dollars into the pockets of federal agencies that then manage to act as governments unto themselves. But besides all of this, … Continue reading →

Could the Berlin Christmas market disaster finally be the long-awaited last nail in her coffin?  The world would certainly be a better place if this were. Trump has been very vocal about what a disaster she has been, accusing her of ‘ruining’ Germany already a year ago. The fact of the matter is that the mainstream media is completely silent about the implosion of her support in Germany, basically pretending it isn’t happening.  That goes double for the German media, which, as we never tire of pointing out, is worse in its bias and outright lying than even the US … Continue reading →

Will the curse of Oscar front-runner hood undermine the public enjoyment of La La Land? It would be delightful to stumble unwittingly upon this old-fashioned movie musical about a romance between an unemployed actress (Emma Stone) and an underemployed jazz pianist (Ryan Gosling) in contemporary Los Angeles. But in this century, Oscar voters have tended to fall loudly in love with one moderately budgeted quasi-experimental movie each year, which then raises expectations for it too high. For example, a half decade ago the Academy decided weeks before The Artist was even released to reward that modest little silent film with … Continue reading →

What if Christmas is a core value of belief in a personal God who lived among us and His freely given promise of eternal salvation that no believer should reject or apologize for? What if Christmas is the rebirth of Christ in the hearts of all believers? What if Christmas is the potential rebirth of Christ in every heart that will have Him, whether a believer or not? What if Jesus Christ was born about 2,000 years ago in Bethlehem? What if He is true God and true man? What if this is a mystery and a miracle? What if … Continue reading →

Next year, the US government will hit its 25-year deadline to release approximately 3,000 never-before-seen documents, and 34,000 previously redacted files relating to the assassination of US President John F. Kennedy. In 1991, Oliver Stone’s film “JFK” renewed public interest in a probable conspiracy surrounding the events leading to the November 22, 1963 assassination. The massive surge in interest lead to the passage of the 1992 JFK Records Act, which gave the government 25 years to release all documents relating to what happened in Dealey Plaza on that day. The National Archives annex in Maryland is currently processing, scanning, and preparing for the large trove of files to be released. Many of the files … Continue reading →

Peter Schiff recently appeared on RT News and laid out how he sees gold prices and the US economy moving into 2017. Inflation vs. interest rates, the stock market bubble, and downturns in mortgage/auto financial markets were a few of the topics Peter provided insights and predictions about. He also dispelled four economic myths surrounding the Fed’s positive outlook, Trump’s fiscal plans, and how inflation impacts gold prices. Myth #1: Fiscal stimulus means no more monetary stimulus. The fact is, the more fiscal stimulus we get the more monetary stimulus we need. There is no way to finance government deficits … Continue reading →

The slumbering Campi Flegrei volcano under the Italian city of Naples shows signs of ‘reawakening’, a new study has warned. Researchers said that the simmering volcano may be nearing a critical pressure point. For the first time, they have identified a threshold beyond which rising magma under the Earth’s surface could trigger the release of fluids and gasses at a 10-fold increased rate. This could potentially lead to an eruption, which could be ‘very dangerous’ for the half million people living in the area. An increase in the release of fluid and gasses would cause the injection of high-temperature steam into surrounding … Continue reading →

The Washington press corps has long since lost any trace of adult behavior. Once a President stands in front of them and asks for questions, the press corps turns into a shouting pack of petulant teenagers. They shout out their questions in a cacophony of chaos. Here is how Trump can take control. First, as each reporter enters the room, he/she is handed a 3×5 card and an instruction sheet. The instruction sheet says this. You have been given a 3×5 card. This card is for one question. Make it a good one. Make it precise. Please print clearly. President … Continue reading →

“…and the ones who call the shots won’t be among the dead and lame; And on each end of the rifle we’re the same” — John McCutcheon 102 years ago this Christmas Eve something happened in the early months of the “War to End All Wars” that put a tiny little blip of hope in the historical timeline of the organized mass slaughter that is war. The event was regarded by the professional military officer class to be so profound and so important (and so disturbing) that strategies were immediately put in place that would ensure that such an event … Continue reading →

Lest you wonder, not only did I not vote for Mr. Trump (or Hillary), but I relished heaping opprobrium on him during the election campaign. Just so you know, I’m not advocating for him, but I’m alarmed that the Deep State (the White House + the Intel Agency gang) now appears to be trying to hack the electoral college vote against him. The headline deployed everywhere last week, “Russia Hacks Election,” was designed by the Deep State players to deviously lead the broadly dim public to think that Russia somehow interfered with the balloting process, which was not possible since … Continue reading →

While it wasn’t widely publicized on this side of the pond, a hacker breach last month into Britain’s Tesco Bank sent shockwaves throughout Europe, with the thieves managing to steal £2.5 million pounds (US$3.1 million). That’s a relatively small loss compared to other hacker attacks, such as the staggering $81 million theft earlier this year from the Bangladesh central bank’s accounts in New York. What is more distressing though is the fact that nearly 7% of Tesco’s customers were affected – as well as the techniques the hackers may have used to penetrate the bank’s databases. Early reports on the … Continue reading →

If you (or a commentator or your political representative or an executive official) support entering into a war, is your support in accordance with a firm and accurate understanding of the war? Is the war a war that’s being initiated rationally? By rational, we mean the standard kinds of things: cogent, sensible, common sense, sound, judicious, prudent. I’m not asking if the war is just. I’m asking about considerations that precede that question. To be able to label some wars as unjust, it’s helpful to back up and ask if it’s meeting conditions of being rational. Indeed, if these considerations … Continue reading →
