Israeli forces kill two Palestinians in al-Khalil over alleged stabbing attack

GCC seeks to cover up terrorism, Wahhabism link: Iran

Last week’s announcement of a record-breaking US aid package for Israel underscores how dangerously foolish and out-of-touch is our interventionist foreign policy. Over the next ten years, the US taxpayer will be forced to give Israel some $38 billion dollars in military aid. It is money we cannot afford going to a country that needs no assistance to maintain its status as the most powerful military in the Middle East. All US foreign aid is immoral and counterproductive. As I have often said, it is money taken from poor people in the US and sent to rich people overseas. That … Continue reading →

We all get tired from time to time. There are days when getting out of bed seems a bit of a struggle. If this is an occasional occurrence, you don’t have to worry too much about it, as it could be a result of poor sleep or a change in your schedule. But if low energy is a constant struggle for you, it could actually be a sign of a more serious illness. Below you will find eight conditions that all have fatigue and low energy as their symptoms. 8 illnesses that cite low energy as a symptom Underactive thyroid: … Continue reading →

In recent months the mainstream media has worked itself into a frenzy trying to defend Hillary from the various scandals surrounding her campaign.  There is seemingly no end to the “plumes of smoke” emanating from the Clinton camp including questions over Benghazi, missing emails, pay-for-play at the Clinton Foundation, strange “medical episodes”, etc, etc, etc.  All the while, the press simply can’t bring themselves to understand why voters never quite view her as a trustworthy candidate.  The problem, says Peggy Noonan of the Wall Street Journal, is that the Clinton’s have been embroiled in so many scandals dating all the … Continue reading →

Philip Weiss of Mondoweiss was curious how Todd Pierce, a military man from Minnesota, became a critic of what looks increasingly like America’s permanent warfare, so Weiss interviewed Pierce in a two-part in-depth interview. Philip Weiss: Tell me about your background. Todd Pierce: I was born in Princeton, Minnesota, in 1951. My mother had grown up on a farm and her family background was Swedish immigrant and Scottish immigrant. My father was from Iowa. One uncle of his had been the minister to China during the Boxer rebellion, Edwin Conger. His wife kept all her correspondence, and it became a … Continue reading →

What we have been seeing worldwide, from India to the UK to the US, is the rebellion against the inner circle of no-skin-in-the-game policymaking “clerks” and journalists-insiders, that class of paternalistic semi-intellectual experts with some Ivy league, Oxford-Cambridge, or similar label-driven education who are telling the rest of us 1) what to do, 2) what to eat, 3) how to speak, 4) how to think… and 5) who to vote for. But the problem is the one-eyed following the blind: these self-described members of the “intelligenzia” can’t find a coconut in Coconut Island, meaning they aren’t intelligent enough to define … Continue reading →

In tandem with the release of Oliver Stone’s excellent biopic “Snowden” this week, there’s also a resurgence of the effort to discredit NSA whistle-blower Edward Snowden. I don’t need to suggest who might be interested in doing that. Potentially the most effective trick is to suggest that Snowden and his “leaks” were some sort of psychological operation, planned and executed by the supposedly omniscient surveillance state itself. If successful, this ploy strengthens the myth of the state and discredits Snowden’s information at the same time. However, even a cursory examination of what he leaked — and the volume — make … Continue reading →

Reading Rich Lowry’s latest column “Trump’s Path to Victory” has made one blogger wonder whether “NR is about to pivot to the Trumpster.” But this is most unlikely.  Although Rich reluctantly concedes that Trump “really can beat Hillary” and that, moreover, he himself had been wrong in imagining this “reality-TV star with a spotty business record and a weird penchant for proclaiming he was on the verge of running for president” could ever win, the conservative luminary is  not about to pivot with his magazine. In his column, Lowry pours as much venom on Trump as he ever did in … Continue reading →

In your own words, tell me what this book is about and who you perceive as the target audience. PREPPER’S ARMED DEFENSE is intended to be a guide for those seeking advice and input as to their options when it comes to taking up weapons against those who would do them harm. The book isn’t going to turn anyone into an expert marksman or any sort of martial arts warrior. Instead, it is a down to earth, practical reference explaining the pros and cons of dozens of different weapons, from firearms to blades, pepper spray to stun guns. While firearms … Continue reading →

Over the last few decades, I doubt that any American political organization has received greater negative attention in our national news and entertainment media than the Ku Klux Klan, or KKK. For example, although white activist David Duke left that group over 35 years ago, the media still often identifies him as one of its former leaders, and partly as a consequence, Duke’s support for Donald Trump’s presidential campaign has regularly been treated as headline news. Such massive coverage may be objectively demonstrated. Googling “KKK” yields over 72 million results, considerably more than the joint total for “Communist” and “Communists,” … Continue reading →

A pipe-fitter has traded in his $65,000 job and is selling his house to live in a $6,000 renovated red school bus. Jeffrey Pryor, 42, from St Louis in Missouri, said he had a ‘lifestyle of debt’ and wanted to ‘take back ownership of his life’. In a radical change of direction, he bought a school bus and spent 500 hours transforming it into a living space and workshop. He started by tearing out the seats, before installing flooring, insulation, a bath, bed, cooker, toilet, lighting, storage areas, and a welder. He named his red bus ‘Le Diable Rouge’, French … Continue reading →

“We’re losing qualified soldiers because of this,” said a transgender Army intelligence [sic] officer at Joint Base Lewis-McChord south of Seattle who used to be a man until “he” spent “more than $50,000 on her transformation.” “This” was the U.S. military’s ban on transgender individuals serving openly in the armed forces. Although Capt. Peace legally changed his/her name, birth certificate, passport, and drivers license, and was known to his/her commanders as a woman, his/her peers were “under formal orders to refer to her as a man.” That was in 2015. Things changed on June 30, 2016, when Secretary of Defense … Continue reading →

UK prime minister Theresa May will address the UN General Assembly on Tuesday. She seeks UN Action to Control Mass Migration Flows. In contrast, I propose a 10-point “common sense” solution, not UN action. Let’s start with May’s proposal. Theresa May will use her first appearance as British prime minister at a United Nations General Assembly meeting starting Monday to urge fellow leaders to do more to control mass migration, which she’ll argue hurts both refugees and the countries they enter. May will say the migrants should be encouraged to claim asylum in the first safe country they reach. Meanwhile … Continue reading →
