American Empire facing multiple vortices of doom

You have to give credit to Bibi and Trump; they've succeeded in leading two nuke-equipped nations to defeat by a non-nuke nation! It's hilarious to watch Pistol Pete Hegseth, aka "Greasy Pete," standing in front of TV cameras claiming one victory after another. Every victory so glorious the entirety of human history has never seen anything like it... Ya... or maybe not. I gotta say, from my perspective, looks to me like the towelheads have got Uncle Sam over the proverbial barrel- the barrel of oil, that is. Not only are they giving Team Trump the finger re: his various ever-changing demands, they're still shipping boat-loads of oil out the allegedly-blockaded Persian Gulf. And when they let foreign ships through, it's only after they've paid a juicy toll in something other than USD. There goes the petrodollar! American cred in the military sphere has already gone for a shit. In the first place, US tech is distinctly over-priced and underwhelming. Billion-dollar AD systems taken out by a drone swarm that doesn't amount to $100k. I'm no expert, but that doesn't strike me as a formula to win a war. And our "Israeli Allies" have truly become the albatross around America's neck. They obviously can't get anything serious done on their own. They've been waging total war against Hamas for the better part of three years and everybody knows Hamas is nowhere near defeated. Even their genocide requires non-stop American support. Americans are turning away from Israel's war crimes like never before.

Vultures circle as American Empire implodes

In hindsight, it's clear that this long-overdue reckoning could have been avoided had Mafia Don not succumbed to the entreaties of the Prime Minister of Israel and its top spy boss that Iran was ripe fruit, low-hanging enough that DJT himself could get his grubby thieving fingers on it. Oh ya! And go down in history! Oh ya! USA USA USA!!! Well, as all the world can see, Donny J is up a bit of a stump now. Any hopes for November are fading fast. Before The Greatest Leader Since Moses conned the greatest dupe to ever sit in the Oval Office into going to war for Israel, there was a chance Mafia Don might bullshit his way through this. That's all over now. Not only did he go to war for Israel... he lost!

Israel on brink of suicide

I saw Smotrich’s speech on Al Jazeera today. He’s the settler Bibi put in charge of the West Bank as part of his horse-trading to form a coalition government. A settler in charge of the West Bank? That won’t end well for anybody. Top plank in the settler platform is expel all Palestinians from Judea and Samaria. This will not go unchallenged by the Palestinian resistance and their allies, namely Hezbollah, Hamas, and Iran. There have been huge protests in Israel for months over Netanyahu’s plans for “reforming” the supreme court. The reforms would allow the government of the day to over-ride the court. If the government of the day is propped up by religious nutters, they’ll be the ones over-ruling the supreme court. That prospect is what has led hundreds of thousands of normal Israelis to protest in the streets on a scale never before seen in Israel. In his speech, Beelzebub Smotrich exhorted his followers to take to the streets to counter the street protests of the normal Israelis. They will no doubt heed his call, and with great enthusiasm. After all, beating up a few fags waving the Pride flag will be a nice change from beating up Palestinian farmers tending their olive groves. Yesterday Bibi fired the Defense Minister for speaking out against his reforms. The Defense Ministry has often been a bastion of sanity in Israeli politics, because the DM is the politician most intimately acquainted with the thoughts of the upper leadership of the IDF. There’s a long history of the top bananas in the IDF speculating publicly about how many incoming rockets Israel should expect in the event the shit hits the fan. Usually they do this after they retire. Estimates run from 50,000 to 500,000. Iron Dome will take out the first couple of dozen. That’s why the top IDF leadership are pacifists compared to the political leadership. When the political leadership falls into the hands of people who think they’re writing a new chapter in the Old Testament, there’s big trouble ahead.

Bibi goes out in a blaze of glory

It was six days ago that Israel's president Reuven Rivlin decreed that opposition leader Yair Lapid would have the opportunity to form a coalition. Meanwhile, The Greatest Leader Since Moses is still in the driver's seat.

Cue the sudden rise in violence. The nation needs a strong hand at the helm, now more than ever. When have we heard this before? Every time Bibi's in trouble?

I'm sure you've noticed how things have been going downhill ever since.

Bibi is down to his last moves to avoid his corruption trial. He's going large. He's doubling down... and doubling down again.

The small change from the Gaza rocketeers isn't at issue here, although they have tragically created some rare casualties of late. What is truly remarkable is that Bibi seems prepared to keep upping the ante. 

The missile that fell a few kilometers from Dimona the other week was a message.

Future wars of the American Empire

One thing the apologists for Trump are always happy to report, is that so far, he hasn't started any new wars yet.

Yet.

Yet, sanctions on both Iran and Venezuela are escalating.

And with war-mongering buffoons like Bolton, Pompeo, and Abrams in the inner circle, you know it's only a matter of time.

Bolton has already made it clear that American oil majors need to rejuvenate Venezuela's oil industry.

He's also opined on the necessity of ridding Venezuela of Cuban oppression.

So you know Cuba and Venezuela are in the cross-hairs.

And today Pompeo was in Israel informing Bibi that America recognises Israel's sovereignty over Syria's Golan. Israel has occupied the Golan since the Six Day War. The international consensus is that Israel's occupation of the Golan is contrary to international law.

But there's been rich oil and gas discoveries made there, and let's not forget the water, so who gives a shit about international law!

When you're the bully on the world stage, the actor with the most guns and the most bombs and the most nuclear missiles... hey, you just do whatever you want!


... and that's how things work.

Warmongers gather to celebrate failure of Great War to end all wars

Just what is that hand-holding thing Trump and Macron like to do when they get together?



I think the Trumpenstein gets a bad rap sometimes... doesn't look too homophobic in that shot.

And doesn't our "Sunny Daze" Trudeau looked chuffed to be seated in the front row, next to the greatest leader since Moses and his boss Sara?



I'm surprised there's not a conspiracy theory yet about Sara and Brigitte Macron having been separated at birth...



Maybe if I have time this afternoon I'll cook one up.

So while we're remembering the millions who made the ultimate sacrifice in the Great War, including 60,000 Canadians, let's not forget that war was Greatly Profitable for the captains of industry and titans of finance on all sides.

Times haven't changed, but Donald Trump sure has

I was looking for something else when I came across this post  from almost a year before the election.

Yup, a year before the election Trump was standing tall against Adelson and Netanyahu.

No wonder so many gullible rubes bought the bullshit!

What a difference an election victory makes.

Israel just announced 15,000 new builds for Jews only in East Jerusalem.

What do you imagine the guy who stood up to Sheldon and Bibi on the campaign trail will have to say about that, now that he's the President?

Brou-ha-ha in Holy Land

Long time Bibiphiles are sporting arched eyebrows over this story.

The Greatest Leader Since Moses has been in court testifying in the libel case he launched against journalist Yigal Sarna.

According to Sarna, the Netanyahu motorcade was travelling at high speed late at night between Jerusalem and Tel Aviv when it suddenly screeched to a halt.

The leader of the only democracy in the Middle East was unceremoniously kicked out of his armoured limousine in a hail of verbal abuse.

By his wife!

Luckily for the future of the only democracy in the Middle East, he was picked up by one of the following SUVs in the motorcade.

Sorry Bibi. Anyone who has followed your life and times will recognize that this story has the ring of truth about it, and your vehement denials just make it ring truer!

Microphones accidentally pick up Netanyahu comments at G20

A technical gaffe at the G20 summit last week resulted in some undiplomatic comments by Benyamin Netanyahu being overheard by the press corps. Although all present were required to pledge an oath of secrecy the story has been leaked by some outraged French journalists.

Canadian PM Steven Harper remains the only G20 leader on speaking terms with Netanyahu, so the two spent quite a lot of time chit-chatting. Here is a transcript of their conversation.

BN: That Sarkozy, he is a midget. He wears elevators in his shoes.

SH: Heh heh, good one Bibi!

BN: And that Merkel, what is the matter with her? Needs a good you-know-what if

       you ask me…

SH: No doubt, Bibi!

BN: Now that Silvio, he is a man’s man, eh?

SH: A man’s man Bibi… still with the bunga bunga at his age!

BN: And Obama... A black man in the White house! And he wants to lecture me?

SH:  For shame, Bibi, for shame...
