If the United States Wants to Survive It Must Free Itself from Israel

Israeli dominance over Washington has gone on for far too long I have university degrees in ancient, medieval and early modern history but search as I may, I cannot find another example of a small, low population state largely devoid of natural resources that has been able to dominate the politics and policies of a […]

Making Palestinians Go Away

The Trump Administration Seeks to Ignore the Genocide Donald Trump, recently sporting his red ballcap modestly featuring the words “Trump Was Right About Everything,” is apparently in regular contact with Israel’s genocidal Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Per Netanyahu, the most recent telephonic exchange had Trump expressing full support for the establishment of control over all of Gaza […]

Trump Makes Israel Great

The President declares that he “can do anything” Last week Donald J Trump declared that as president of the United States, he believes he has the “right to do anything I want to do.” The assertion explains a lot in terms of how an unhinged Trump regards himself and his office and it should serve as a […]

Does Donald Trump Really “Run the World”?

Or is he even in charge of the White House? United States President Donald J. Trump, who somewhat hubristically claims that he “runs both the country and the world”, has created a political machine called MAGA, which stands for Make America Great Again. He has parlayed that instrument into electoral victory by pledging himself to improve the […]

Another Week in Washington to Remember

Or perhaps to forget If one thinks that arming Ukraine against Russia or having Israeli soldiers and also American contractors slaughter Gazan civilians are not supportive of any United States actual interests, last week could easily be written off as yet another descent into Hell on the part of the United States. Americans and others […]

Benjamin Netanyahu Is Coming to Town Again

Will Donald Trump surrender or will Bibi resort to a false flag? Benjamin Netanyahu is on his way for his third visit to Washington during the first six months of the second term of President Donald Trump.

Trump Rolls Over for a New War

Do dumb things and then lie about it It is generally believed that American voters elected Donald Trump president at least in part due to their embracing his lies that he was a peacemaker who would not involve the United States in the pointless wars that have proliferated since 9/11. Trump’s predecessor the hapless Genocide […]

Trump Takes America to War

The attack on Iran will lead to endless and pointless slaughter There is a somewhat troublesome backstory to President Donald Trump’s glorification of how Saturday’s US forces attack on three Iranian nuclear sites that “completely obliterated” their targets was carried out without any declaration of war against a country that has not attacked and was not […]
