The Temporary Illusion of Peace

 

 

MY QUICK TAKE ON THE ILLUSION OF PEACE IN GAZA

Almost everybody wants peace, that’s is, aside from innumerable extremists scattered throughout the Middle East–which includes both Palestinians and Israelis. They aren’t going away anytime soon. Don’t be fooled by innocent people who mean well dancing in the streets, because there are quite a few you don’t see on the news hiding out and plotting the next chapter…. and it’s not going to be pretty for anyone.

Orphans Now, Terrorists Later? Questions for Supporters of Israel

 

QUESTIONS FOR SUPPORTERS OF ISRAEL

ORPHANS NOW, TERRORISTS LATER?

I’ve purposely avoided writing about the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Not because this terrible tragedy isn’t important and doesn’t demand our attention. It’s mostly because the discord is so complex and combustible that debate and discussion becomes pointless. Given the intense depth of conviction on all sides of the conflict, I’m not sure there is a resolution. That said, I hope to come up with something thoughtful here that might achieve a consensus of opinion–even among those who disagree. At least, I’m willing to try and see how this goes.

Why Do Foreign Leaders Subject Themselves to the Trump Media Circus?

 

 

WHY DO FOREIGN LEADERS SUBJECT THEMSELVES TO THE TRUMP MEDIA CIRCUS?

I don’t get it.

Each and every time Trump welcomes another foreign leader into the White House, it’s accompanied by a lengthy (and very often lively) press gathering, which consists of questions and answers. But in reality, it’s almost all Trump rambling. THE ENTIRE TIME. Recently, someone timed these circus sideshows. The calculation was that Trump talks *87 percent* of the time. That’s pretty shocking given most of the cabinet and his advisors are also in the room, in addition to the leader of the foreign country. It’s like listening to a chain saw rip through a forest of dead trees.

The Fart of the Deal / The Art of the Steal

 

 

THE FART OF THE DEAL AND THE ART OF THE STEAL

Stop calling it a “historic summit.”

There was nothing “historic” about any of it, other than the world witnessing the shameful spectacle of two power-mad dictators — one wickedly intelligent, coldly calculating, and consistent….the other woefully inept, simpleminded, and unstable — staging a pitiful photo op and quickie “press conference” on a American soil.

I’ve seen more substance come out of 15-minute meetings at my local Starbucks, even when they got my order wrong.

Thoughts on USA-Canada Relations

 

 

MY THOUGHTS ON USA-CANADA RELATIONS

Why is Canada’s Mark Carney meeting today with someone who continues to lie out of his ass, hurls repeated insults, and spews idiotic delusions of grandeur about seizing control of a sovereign nation with a long history and proud people with the second-largest land mass in the world?

Meeting with Trump today at the White House isn’t just a blundering badly-timed mistake for Canada’s newly-elected Prime Minister. It’s madness. It’s like negotiating for your own lunch money with the 5th grade bully, on his playground.
