Is Santa Joe finally going to help bomb Iran out of existance before they nuke the world.? The end of "Death to America" celebrations. Liking whats coming from the WH.

For the record, the last time Israel invaded Lebanon they did so to drive ouf the Syria and to destroy the PLO infrastructure in Lebanon and its headquarters in Beirut. And after 18 years they wound up with Iran and Hezbollah in their places. That is not the wind you are hearing, it is the ghost of George Santayana, sighing heavily.

So Iran is sending rockets into Israel.
Will Israel once again bear the brunt of beating back the most dangerous Empire on the planet.?  Or can it get the support from the west it needs?
.



Israel has, with extraordinary tactical accuracy, dispatched some of the masterminds of the worst evil on the planet, including most recently Hassan Nasrallah, the Hezbollah leader in Lebanon. It has repelled and then reversed the previously inexorably advancing power of one of the most terrifying autocracies, the Islamic Republic of Iran. It has demonstrated to all the  foes of the West, including Iran allies in Moscow and Beijing, that our system of free markets and free people, and the voluntary alliance network we have constructed to defend generates resources and capabilities of vast technical superiority.
Above all, it has provided an unexpected but crucial reminder to our enemies that there are at least some willing and able to pursue and defeat them whatever the risk to our own lives and resources.


(Gerard Baker, Wall Street Journal Columinist )

Let us hope in the last few months of the Biden Administration he summons the nerve to arouse all of our allies to aid Israel if Iran carries out its intended violence.

The alternative to a damaged or destroyed Israel is too scary to think about.

It is the great battle between modernity and the primitives. Destroying infidels is a centerpiece of their book. Theocracy versus a democratic voice.

Excellent recap of the dangers of the Republican ticket.

Biden has only a few weeks to end his term with  memorable action.
To quit coddling Iran and rally the West to deliver a crushing blow to the mullahs.
He has to forget the folly of Obama who began the appeasement of Iran and its terrorist proxies.
The result has been the destabilizing of the Middle East that enriched the theocracy with billions of dollars. All Iran did was use the money to build its arsenal while still working on developing nuclear power.

A stronger commitment to supporting Israel and its military responses may cost the democrats the election.
But that pales in comparison to what a victorious Iran would do if it succeeds.

Bowman, Hamel and Vance.

James Donald to James David to J.D. to JD.

Reminds me of the classic Headhunters song, Chameleon

So who is this motherfucker?

Anyone he needs to be.

Captain Kangaroo never conjured a figure quite so outlandish as JD Vance.
This shape-shifting boy has gone from being a never-Trump author who in 2016 compared the reprehensibleTrump to Adolf Hitler, to a venture capitalist who in 2020 said Trump thoroughly failed to deliver,to the junior senator from Ohio who, as Trumps running mate in 2024, worships the ground the former president walks on.

Vance has used his own Magic Drawing Board to create a whimsical portrait of reality in this election season. He has embraced the fiction that Trump won the 2020 election. He has falsely claimed that Democrats were responsible for two assassination attempts against Trump. He has seconded Trump
