Is it possible to conceive of a less meaningful act than “standing” with Ukraine? Or with Israel?
Or with any abstraction?
How does one “stand” with another country, which is another abstraction as there are only people who live in countries? And how does one “stand” with those people by not doing anything – other than changing out the flag icons of the foreign country you “stand” with to accompany your Tweets?
It’s a modern virtue-signaling fatuity on par with “stay safe” –Â and “we’re all in this together.”
Kumbaya.
The Left excels at “standing” with various things. Whatever the latest thing is. This is natural, of course, because the Left only stands for one thing, really. That thing being dogmatic (on the part of its leadership cadres) and doggy (on the part of its useful idiot masses) devotion to “standing” with whatever the latest thing is. It can be Keeeeeeeeeeeeeeev. It can become Israel (uber alles, of course).
Then it will be “climate change” or some other thing.
So long as you “stand” with whatever it is now, you’re in good with the Left.
And that helps us understand what people are being trained to do when they are pressured to “stand” with whatever the latest thing is.
It is the same training Americans began to receive more than 20 years ago – times flies! – when they got habituated to spreading their legs and raising their arms in order to be allowed to board a commercial flight. The object being not merely obedience but habituation to arbitrary authority demanding it.
In former times, Americans had been habituated to think of themselves as free people who were under no obligation to obey just because they were told to. They would ask why – and if they didn’t get a good answer (other than Just Because) they would be inclined to disobey. It was once the American Way.
They chafed at violations of their rights, including the right to be left in peace when they’d done nothing to disturb the peace.
It was once – as the saying used to go – a free country.
It is interesting one rarely if ever hears that saying anymore.
At least Americans are honest about that. The country that was once a free country has become a regimented one and not merely in the literal stand here sense. It has metastasized into a place in which everyone is expected (and pressured by the threat of social opprobrium for not meeting expectations)Â to “stand” with various causes-du-jour, i.e., whatever the latest thing happens to be.
It’s marvelous – in a horrible way – to see how well so many Americans have taken to their training, like seals or Labrador Retrievers.
How eager they are to show they “stand” with whatever they’re told the latest thing is. And condemn those who show the slightest lack of enthusiasm.
People who were rabid about how “we’re all in this together” during the mass-psychosis event styled the “pandemic” shifted seamlessly into rabidity about the need to “stand” with Ukraine, whatever that means.
And now they are just as seamlessly shifting their “standing” to Israel, as they’ve been told to.
What will the “stand” with next? The better question to ask is: What will they fall for next?
Orwell was perhaps the first to describe this business in his best-known novel, 1984. He describes a party rally at which an orator is haranguing the crowd about the latest thing – the only thing, for as long as the party says it is the only thing. That thing being the war against Eastasia, which has been continuous for as long as anyone pretends to remember. In mid-harangue, the orator is handed a piece of paper which he quickly scans and then proceeds without more than a very slight pause to resume his harangue, with the war now being with Eurasia instead.
It has become the latest thing – and everyone in the crowd (save Winston Smith, the hero of the novel) understands where things stand.
This is where America stands now.
It’s not so much a country anymore as a kind of continental amen chorus, bellicosely “standing” with whatever they are told the latest thing is.
Right now, it’s Israel. In a month, it’ll be some other thing.
It’s laborious to try to keep up with all this “standing.” Luckily, it’s easy enough to change one’s Twitter flag from gold and yellow to white and blue.

And what does “standing with” get the place stood with? Ask someone from Tibet….. Remember when they were the “in” thing? Heard anything about them lately? I sure haven’t.
Hi Rich,
They’ve moved on . . . to the Latest Thing. It’ll be another thing, soon enough.
Didn’t someone once say “If you don’t stand for something, you’ll fall for anything”? Well, I suppose that statement is now officially null-and-void. The dildos have definitely been doing a whole lot of “standing for something” lately, and yet somehow, they STILL keep FALLING FOR ANYTHING!
That slender little thing in the Israel shirt you posted beside the article reminds me… My coworker has a teenage son who, with his group of compadres, is extremely successful at infiltrating the local leftist gatherings, saying the right buzzwords, and getting lucky with the local leftist hotties. Oh to be young again!
That’s really funny actually. Probably the easiest tail on the planet.
‘I have this wonderful dream in which I see a C-130 flying over Keeeeeeeeeeeeeeeev â or Gaza â doors open . . . then I see Biden, Graham, Nikki Haley, Mitt Romney and all the rest of them air-dropped into the combat zone.’ — eric
‘President’ F. Joe Biden offers his rebuttal:
‘CBS 60 Minutes host Scott Pelley asked Biden âAre the wars in Israel and Ukraine more than the United States can take on at the same time?â
‘Biden replied, âWeâre the United States of America for Godâs sake! The most powerful nation in the history, not in the (world), in the history of the world! The history of the world!â
‘He continued to blather, âWe can take care of both of these and still maintain our overall international defense. We have the capacity to do this and we have an obligation to. We are the essential nation, to, to paraphrase the former secretary of State [Madeleine Albright]. And if we donât who does?â’
https://tinyurl.com/mr28tds6
Since when does a notorious war criminal like Madeliene Albright get to define our national obligations?
‘Biden’ quoting Albright is like a contemporary German leader quoting Goebbels, with approval. Add another count of impeachment!
In real time watching people shift to thinking whatever TV and ‘leaders’ tell them to is remarkable.
It’s only 6-10% of so of people that can see most/much of the scams that is keeping society from going off the deep end. Hence the desire to silence the minority that keeps getting proven correct.
In animal husbandry terms, ‘standing’ is when a female come in heat and get screwed by the stud. So, in other words, by STANDING, we are all being lined up to take it in ass, like a bunch of bitches. Nice.
Very fitting, that animal husbandry term of, âstandingâ.
Those who are, ‘standing’ are being, or have been, impregnated with a mind virus.
THE longest ever, injection. Takes place for years,… decades?
Propaganda + standing = useful idiots… &, Power & Control for the overlords.
The entire area has been a canker-sore on the entire world for thousands of years. Even with modern technology, they only use it to kill everyone they disagree with in some effing ‘holy war’ of some kind. We should have turned the whole middle east into a sheet of glass following 911. Probably should have done it sooner, actually, like during the OPEC embargo that strangled the rest of civilization in the 1970’s. I would invite them to pound sand, but they actually seem to enjoy doing so all on their own. Giving 3rd-world tribes technology is like giving a cave-man a ray-gun, all they do is wreck the hell out of civilization with it.
Everyone felt sorry for Palestine when Beirut blew itself up 3 years ago. Their government in charge of that crap was the same group of terrorists that bombed hell out of the American base in 1983 killing 220 US soldiers. Their moronic religious in-fighting got them their own comeuppance, and WE are supposed to give a rat’s ass? Every time someone tries to civilize some camel-jockey, goat herder, or slave-trader living in the stone-age, WE get the hate and the blame for it, and then WE are supposed to STAND with them? They can all bloody well burn in Hell for all I care.
Amen, Graves –
I wish a giant sky daddy rectum would appear in the air above the entire area; pucker – and then dilate – erupting volcanic scheisse all over the area until it piles up 100 feet deep.
Yeah, except that won’t happen either. Fairy-Tales don’t kill people, even if the same people are intent on killing anyone that doesn’t believe in THEIR ‘Fairy-Tails’. They have been inbreeding & killing each other, and everyone else around them, for 3 thousand-plus years, and aren’t likely to stop, EVER.
People talk about going back in time to kill Adolf Hitler to prevent WW2. Why doesn’t anyone talk about going ‘back in time’ to kill Abraham, the actual FATHER of this entire inbred family feud? That’s when and where all this ignorant shit started to begin with!
Hi Graves,
I’d say go back even farther! Hamilton being the object of attention; or at least Henry Clay and his goddamn “internal improvements” schemes.
Lol, I was referring to THE Abraham, of the Old Testament, of the Bye-Bull. Not the present-day mutual acquaintance Abraham. Although, he is, like his namesake, quite a worthless shit-stirrer that society could do without, nonetheless.
I’d settle for preventing Wilson from becoming president or whatever prevents the federal reserve, the federal income tax, and US entry into WW1.
While that may not prevent people in the middle east from killing each other it would most likely mean the USA isn’t involved.
Be careful what you WISH for. According to Genesis 12, Abraham is the “Father of ALL ‘nations’ “, so likely you and I have him as an ancestor as well. Still, given how many generations (about 120), that’s one of BILLIONS of possible men, probably well above the actual world population of the time. Family trees are a funny thing, they’re not as readily modeling as one might think.
I won’t take apart this rant but why do we have anything to do with the middle east? We have two enormous oceans protecting us and plenty of our own resources. We just can’t mind our own fucking business for some reason.
The Jews are impossible to talk about. They are reasonably intelligent and have very strong group cohesion which gives them a great advantage over us most clueless White Christians (culturally at least). They have no morals, power is the only thing they care about. A belief system like this tends to get you power, shocking I know. Probably won’t be an answer in my lifetime but Russia at least seems to have some pushback against them. Not a damn thing we can do.
Do the majority of people really think like this? I have a pretty diverse clientele (as I am sure you do too, Mark). Is every Christian, Muslim, or Jew that walks into our office evil?
We keep assessing that if the government does it (whether it is the USSA, the EU, Israel, Hamas, Iran, etc.) then the people must also want it? Is that really true? Sure, there are always going to be sects of heinous and vile persons throughout the world, but shall we view the entire group as such? I would hate if someone looked as me as a complete supporter of every move that the USSA government has made over the last 247 years. None of us have any choice on how we come into this world – our gender, our religious sect, our nationality, our race, etc. The only choice that we have is…are we an evil person? Does someone kick puppies? Abuse babies? Steal? Lie? Cheat? Kill? If so, yeah, that individual is a hideous person. I have yet to discover any nation, religion, or race that seems to hold a code on morality.
Its the strong in-group preference, similar to Mormons, which is their strength. I knew a regular white guy first named Israel for some reason who would regularly get offered banking interviews from Wall Street big dogs who assumed he was jewish. Asked if he spoke hebrew and such. Don’t be mistaken, Jews hate us. There was a bunch of Christians attacked in Israel recently with Jews spitting on them. Search it. They want us all dead. Ukraine is their ultimate joy, Christaians butchering each other once again.
Quite a bit of noticing there my friend.
No, we Americans CAN…but WON’T. In the end, WE are to blame for our supposed “misfortunate” at the hands of “The J-O-Os”, not they for simply pursuit of their own self-interest. It’s up to us to DEFEND ourselves, and if we WON’T, then we deserve what happens.
Speaking of “Standing,” (a bit off topic, though) anyone listen to Alan Jackson’s “Small Town Southern Man?” It’s generally a great traditional country song, until the chorus pops in where he sings “…and he bends his knee for Jesus and he stands for Uncle Sam…” What in the world happened to southerners?!
Hi Logan,
What happened?
The South was beaten into submission by the Federal government (i.e., the North). Even such admirable figures as James Longstreet learned to love their new master, after having been beaten sufficiently.
The “South” is now a facade, increasingly McCorporatized.
Been reading some literature that at least ATTEMPTS to state why (1) the first seven, then four more, formerly US states seceded in 1861 to form the CSA, and (2) why the USA, under control of a “sectionalist” President, good ol’ “Dishonest Abe” Lincoln, had an economic imperative to forcibly prevent that.
There were many causes of why division within the “United” States from its inception to 1861, slavery, tariffs, and culture being the main identifiable ones. The cause of the WAR, however, was that by 1861, the Federal Government, no longer content to be the mere servant of the several states and under “sectional” control, that is, enough of a majority in enough of the Northern and Western states (long before California had its electoral dominance, of course!) to get Lincoln election with but 40 percent of the popular vote, and virtually NONE south of the Mason-Dixon line, decided that ratification of the Constitution by nine of the original states that abrogated the Articles of Confederation, and admission of the ones that were subsequently created, was an act of SURRENDER. Therefore, FedGov was going to ENFORCE keeping those “rebel” states in the “Union”, which, after four years of brutal warfare, it finally achieved military success.
This was best recently illustrated, of all things, by a DISNEY-PIXAR movie, the 2004 edition of “The Incredibles”, where a frustrated, “retired” superhero, the hulking Bob Parr, insurance adjuster, corporate guy, and somewhat-devoted husband and father, at least when not reminiscing about the “glory days”, gets fired after he’s had enough of his whiny, overbearing boss and puts the guy through a dozen or so parallel walls. A mysterious shadow figure (who’s animated with quite the “figure”) then hires him, in an initiation tests, to subdue a rebellious droid on some remote Pacific island. When she briefs Bob, he has it figured out already:
Don’t tell me, let me guess…it got ‘smart’, and decided why (in the hell) should it be taking orders?
The “smart-ness” of FedGov, by 1861, was that it had enough corporate knowledge and momentum that it already had the ability to dominate the states that it’d been created to “serve”, it was just a matter of having the GUIDANCE, i.e., like a smart little bastard, sitting on its shoulder, whispering instructions to the giant. The elective plurality that sufficed, on a sectional basis, to render an electoral majority to put “their man”, i..e, the corporate lawyer and STOOGE, Lincoln, in the White House, was in turn steered by the then-corporate and banking interests that dominated Northern politics, and THOUGHT it had the Southern states economically under their thumb.
Like what causes MOST wars to break out…they did NOT, or at least as securely under their “thumb” as they’d thought. The same banking and corporate interests that thought they could offer the South the prospect of “guaranteeing” the continuation of slavery, but also impose the Morrill tariffs, were completely taken by surprise at the resolve of the Southern states to secede and organize, militarily, to defend themselves. Please keep in mind that the desire to secede was NOT, by any means, universal in the South, indeed, all but South Carolina raised at least a battalion-sized unit to fight in the UNION army, the Unionist sentiment being the strongest in the Appalachians where Lincoln’s second Veep, Andrew Johnson of (eastern) Tennessee hailed from, and which western counties of Virginia broke off in the 1861 Wheeling Convention, to eventually (and ILLEGALLY) form the state of WEST Virginia in 1863. This denial, and greater shock, was realized at the First Battle of Manassas, what the Yankees termed Bull Run (Confederate sources labelled battles according to the nearest town, while the Union usually labelled them by the nearest river or other body of water), where the elites of Washington rode out in their fine wagons, with box lunches, to watch the suppression of the “rebellion”. Needless to say, the Union Army was thoroughly beaten, mainly by the superior leadership of the Confederacy, mostly recently high-ranking US Army officers that had, like Robert E Lee, resigned their commissions to fight for their native states, and both the US Army and the elite Washingtonians beat a hasty and frenzied retreat back to DC. Had the Confederate Army been in a position to exploit their victory and CAPTURE DC, likely Maryland would have likewise seceded, FedGov would have had to evacuate to north of the Mason-Dixon line, and the “Civil War’ would have been won right then and there. It did play out DIFFERENTLY, of course!
Stonewall Jackson begged Jefferson Davis for 13 thousand troops to pursue and take DC after the first Battle of Bull Run. Davis being the pu**y he was refused. War would have been over right then.
Hi Eric,
Except the South wasn’t beaten into submission, to put it quite clearly, they lost. Don’t get me wrong I am not rejoicing over this fact, but the South was conquered by the North due to bad decisions, missed opportunities, the death of Jackson, and Lee conducting a gentleman’s war.
If it didn’t happen between 1861-1865 it was going to happen eventually. The North was erecting factories, had better infrastructure, and more people. The South was holding onto a pipe dream that in time, was going to be destroyed. The end of slavery was going to happen whether the South liked it or not.
If a Civil War occurred today the South would be better prepared and would likely defeat their Northern neighbors since the South is really the new industry stronghold where close to 60% of all residents now inhabit.
Indeed, RG –
Lee was initially a reluctant secessionist; but his attitude changed the more he had to deal with those people – as would often call them. The federal armies conducted themselves despicably while (in general) the Army of Northern Virginia held to a more honorable standard. Eventually, Lee realized this was a no-quarters (either asked for or given) war. Too late, alas.
In my reading of the history of the war, one of the key failure points (for the Confederacy) was when documents pertaining to Lee’s troop dispositions prior to his first attempt to bring the war to the North (at Antietam, ultimately) fell into Federal hands. Had they not, Lee would likely have trounced Burnside (as he did McLellan) and quite possible forced the North – via souring public opinion in the North – to sue for an armistice and acceptance of the Confederacy’s right to choose its own government.
Such a tragic story.
I cannot disagree with anything you have written except it is the Battle of Sharpsburg…only the Yankees call it Antietam. đ
There likely would have been no war (or it would have been very short) if Maryland had agreed to secede. Depending on what view one has. Maryland either saved or destroyed the Union.
I was born south of the Mason Dixon Line and am a Southern girl by heart, but I believe fate played a part on what became of the South from Maryland not seceding, Lincoln putting Maryland under martial law, the Army of Northern Virginia’s plans being wrapped around a few cigars and found by Union troops, England not assisting the South, etc. Would the country have been as successful if it did not take place or if the South won? Who knows, but the US did show that it can cause (and solve) its own issues without outside interference. I wish the rest of the world would take note of this. Hell, I wish the US government would take note of this. Territorial disputes will always arise and it does not require outside resources to fund them or assist them. People need to duke it out on their own and the rest of us need to learn to mind our own business.
Lincoln ordered the arrest of the entire Maryland legislature at Annapolis, plus SCOTUS Chief Justice Roger B Taney, a Marylander. Ever heard of “Federal” Hill in Baltimore, near the Inner Harbor? So named because it was their then-“Mount Trashmore”, covered over as any trash heap would be with soil, overlooking the city. The US Army hauled the guns from nearby Fort McHenry, site of where Francis Scott Key composed “The Star-Spangled Banner”, and trained them ON Baltimore, to deter any “rebel” uprising. For obvious reason, Maryland wasn’t given a chance to ELECT to secede.
It seems like rather than âstanding withâ the cause dâjour weâre being bent over by Uncle and getting our wallets stolen. Joke Biden is sending our tax dollars to Israel and Ukraine at warp speed, letâs see if the House âconservativesâ opposed to further handouts to Keeev feel the same way about Tel-Aviv.
Indeed, Mike –
I have this wonderful dream in which I see a C-130 flying over Keeeeeeeeeeeeeeeev – or Gaza – doors open . . . then I see Biden, Graham, Nikki Haley, Mitt Romney and all the rest of them air-dropped into the combat zone.
And then I wake up.
I absolutely enjoy answering those shrill J-O-Os or their “born-again Christian” sycophants (as a jack Mormon, my views probably especially gall them) who have lately been beating the drum for Israel to, figuratively, “kick ass and chew bubble-gum, even if out of gum…”) on Gaza, Hamas, and EVERY Palestinian, saying to the effect that they’re just “animals” and ought to be exterminated. What I say is, “gee, Mr. or Ms. J-O-O, why don’t you avail yourself of your supposed “right of return” to the Jewish State, and book the next flight to Tel Aviv, enlist in the IDF, put on the uniform, take your issued weapon, and STAND A POST?” I also point out that the IDF WILL accept temporary enlistment of “Shabbos Goyim” to the “Christians”. Then I enjoy their heads exploding, as typically the “comeback” is name-calling, like “Anti-Semite”, “Nazi”, and so on.
Funny how the Israelis are far more proficient Fascists than the Nazis ever were.
Indeed, Douglas –
The belligerent poltroonery is beyond grating. I can respect a man who’s seen combat suggesting others see it. Because he’s a man. But what sort of man insists other see combat who avoided it himself?
We call them “Chickenhawks”. Many are Neocons and/or JEWS.
>EVERY Palestinian, saying to the effect that theyâre just âanimalsâ and ought to be exterminated.
Restricted to Gaza, that amounts to at least 2,000,000 individuals.
What method will be used to exterminate them?
A) Blow them up by air strikes, leaving no body parts larger than a human fist. Good optics, no corpse disposal. Also maximizes cost to the U.S. taxpayers, who will be paying for the $$$ “smart” bombs.
B) Shooting by ground troops, including infantry and artillery. Exposes troops to enemy fire. Also possibility of troops having psychological problems ITLR, or not, depending on the individuals.
C) Poison gas, followed by cremation. Probably the cheapest, but has significant PR problems if photos or videos get out. Still, it doe pay homage to Fritz Haber, known as the father of chemical warfare.
I predict the IDF will choose option A. Clean, though expensive. Expense no object if someone else is paying for it. BOHICA, fellow Americans. Buy Raytheon stock, if you can afford it.
I suspect if that ever happened someone would get charged with littering.
What gets me is the complete lack of nuance in the discussion. Everything is a binary issue, and the only solution is the one that has the most repression. Yet people eat it up! Even something I believe in my heart of hearts has a grain of doubt. Or at least I’ll entertain the alternative view long enough to hear it.
These people who apear to be so sure of themselves, why are they like that? Their lives must be pretty boring, only trusting one source.
Morning, RK!
I think nuance is a function of introspective/critical thinking. And neither is encouraged in this country. Instead – as you say binary and often bellicose posturing. For example, the recent discussions (sic) with LyspoonerBot (who has not returned after I informed it that it would have ot provide its real full name as a condition of being permitted to post henceforth) about the reckless cop. His adamant position was that “the law” is “the law” (and it is, of course) and must be enforced, regardless of nuance.
“I AM…the LAW!” is only funny if “Sly” (Sylvester Stallone) says it. Or if Rob Schneider parodies it!
As for The Lawâ˘, most of the laws were based on “Remember that one guy who did that thing that time?” Only later does it become convenient to start combing the legal system for reasons to prosecute. Or worse, persecute.
Usually there’s some heinous crime committed, but because the defendant might have a good lawyer the DA piles on a bunch of minor crimes that pretty much existing makes you in a legal grey area. That way even if the guy “gets off” for the primary crime there’s a bunch of secondary charges that the DA can then point to as a win.
“The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, and wiser people so full of doubts.”
Bertrand Russell
Apparently, the only thing that’s non-binary nowadays, is one’s gender.
“Standing with…” means “I will give you my money and my children’s lives”.
I am scared shitless at how many mindless morons are out there braying to kill all the Palestinians for Israel. Lindsey Graham and Nikki Haley have said that we — “WE” — are “at war.” Graham wants us to bomb Iran.
This shit is out of control, it’s like 1914. The U.S. has deployed TWO aircraft carrier battle groups and a squadron of F-15s to the greater Israel area. Never before have we done anything like that. We have fought wars that are in Israel’s interest for decades, but we at least maintained the pretense that we were doing it on our own, not for our masters in Tel Aviv. This time it sure looks like we are willing to go to war for Israel and/or back them up while they kill women and children in the Gaza strip.
Did Hamas commit atrocious deeds? Yes. Has Israel committed atrocious deeds? Yes. It is not in the interest of me or of the United States to “stand with” either side. It is not in the interest of me or the United States to pick sides in a religious and territorial blood feud that has been going on for centuries on a different continent on the other side of the planet.
The entire shitshow demonstrates how thoroughly the United States has been enslaved and cuckolded by Israel and the Jews. Every single aspect of this circus — military, economic, legal, propaganda — is completely controlled by the Jews for their own self-interest.
I can’t believe this has happened to my country. I can’t believe how many people uncritically just lap it up and bark and clap to kill Arabs like trained seals in the circus.
Amen, X –
I wasn’t there, of course, but it does feel a lot like 1914 all over again. The same sense that w’re being dragged along by a rip tide that’s beyond our control. If nuclear war over Keeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeev canbe avoided – courtesy of the restraint exercised by the Russians – then, no problem, the maniacs will get one started over Israel. The Israeli government may start it – by lobbing a nuke over Tehran.
Great times,eh?
Thankfully, Israel delayed the invasion of Gaza again, citing bad weather. Never mind the fact that it’s clear over there, and it will remain clear for days.
Of course it’s 1914 again. Because all our major problems stem from US entry into WW1 and the changes made to finance it in late 1913. Without the USA entering WW1 the middle east wouldn’t have been carved up the way it was, there wouldn’t have been WW2. There might not be a federal reserve. Although the european powers may have still gone to central banking to finance the war. But without US entry they would have all run out of men, material, and energy and found a mutual peace.
It is always 1914. They even use the same damn slogan, ‘keeping the world safe for democracy’.
Indeed, Brent –
Of course, many people cannot see much less appreciate this because they lack historical knowledge and lack future time orientation.
“Of course itâs 1914 again. Because all our major problems stem from US entry into WW1”
This. A thousand times, this.
The problem, X, is that the government of the United States has back Israel since 1948, and with very minor exceptions, has never allowed any diversion of that path since. The United States GovCo is joined at the hip with the Israelites. This despite the fact that these Jews have done everything in their power to piss down American’s backs and tell them it’s raining.
Do we really have to list all the espionage capers, the attack on the USS Liberty and so much else to realize this “shitty little country” [h/t Daniel Bernard] is an albatross around our necks. We should also add the attack on Nahn’Levn to their deeds as the dancing Israelis made clear. Sen. Bob Graham (D-FL) at the time said certain countries had foreknowledge of the attack and when pressed to name the he said that was “classified”. You know darn good and well if it was anyone other than Israel(or their pals the Saudis) it would have been shouted from the rooftops.
It’s time to be done with this quintessential entangling alliance.
Hi Mark, re: alliance, itâs only an alliance if both sides help each other. In Israelâs case it only goes one way – from us to them. Theyâre more like a parasite steadily bleeding its host.
Mike in Boston, your point is well taken. I was using Washington’s admonition as the point of reference. Yes, it’s been a one way street. Or, more accurately, a highway to hell.
Hi Mike,
Israel provides a faux moral justification for perpetual meddling and intervention lusted after by the permanent war class.
Here’s a clip of Joe when he could articulate evil quite clearly.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FYLNCcLfIkM
Jeremy
Putin is probably resisting the urge to fire a few S-400 missiles from their positions in Syria at the US Sixth Fleet. Attacks on the Hezbollah positions there might just give him to excuse. And should that sort of missile attack SUCCEED…GAME ON!
Here is my standing rant on this and other things middle east:
This attack from Hamas has, least for the moment, put some left-wing nut jobs in the position of standing with Hamas and what they have done. Kinda like standing with Hitler have invading Poland or Japan after attacking us (although Pearl Harbor was a soft false flag conducted by ourselves).
Speaking of False-Flag operations; we’ve seen a lot of them played over the years, J6 being one. We cannot out of hand dismiss this possibility that Israel may have let this happen in order to justify taking care of Hamas once and for good. However, I think this unlikely. Israel was on the verge of striking another expanded Abrams Accord deal with the Saudi’s. This was far in their advantage vs to then start this with the killing they have taken, makes no sense.
Speaking of Abrams Accords; this was brilliant by Trump administration to bypass and ignore the Palestinians. The Palestinians were becoming irrelevant and so was their false cause for a homeland which they have been offered more than once and refused. Their leaders make buku bucks off the fight. The last thing they want is a solution and their own country which you have to work for a living vs killing your sworn enemy and collecting welfare payments from the Saudi’s. Gaza is the Oakland of the middle east.
Speaking of Palestinian irrelevancy; makes sense why they did this and why now. They went from irrelevant to world news in 24 hours. Protests around the world with their cause again being discussed. Saudi’s have withdrawn from the deal which is what Iran wanted.
The only issue which doesn’t make sense is the brutality to which Hamas attached civilians? (I want to see the dead baby pictures, not because I’m goolish but we have seen a lot of propaganda from our own country especially Covid and Ukraine.) Normally, Hamas launches rockets and moves their civilians to the launch sites as human shields, so CNN will play the casualties on their news. They get lots of propaganda out of this. One answer why the Palestinian’s overplayed their hand is their un-controlled hatred from their so-called religion of peace.
Speaking of the Religion of Peace: I read the Koran. Not fine reading material but enlightening as to the motivation of these people of peace. They want to kill all non-believers or subjugate them. Islam is an ideology not a religion. Much closer to the current democratic party in our county *you are with us, or you are the enemy. Get ready you Kulaks*.
Rant over and out.
Hi Hans,
I agree with everything you have said.
For my teenagers school assignment last week I actually had them watch a video on the history of Israel and Palestine. I had watched it first and it was very “matter of fact”. The video was not trying to push a narrative and I wanted my kids to come to their own conclusions. We discussed it later over dinner. The vote was pretty unanimous. Both sides have done some pretty horrific things.
A World War will solve nothing except decrease the world’s population (maybe that is the goal). As you stated above, we cannot beat an ideology. It is a waste of resources and most importantly, lives. Four thousand years of anger is not going to subside with troops on the ground and a range of missiles.
I am afraid the Ukraine and Russian War is going to look like walking through a field of wildflowers versus what is coming. The war drums are loud and they are determined to destroy everyone of us before this is over.

Helot,
My two cents.
I think Israel had far more to gain with an enhanced relationship with the Saudi’s and the Saudi’s with Israel due to the nut job Iran mullahs want a showdown with the Sunnis someday down the road. Israel has made a garden out of the desert with their water tech and they make very good weapons. Saudi wants both and a quiet relationship with a nuclear power to send a message to Iran.
If it is as you say…then Saudi Arabia has no choice but to go nuclear themselves (which Israel does not want) which they may be able to purchase a weapon thanks to all the spare cash Bite-me put in their pockets driving energy prices thru the roof.
Israel had more to gain with a Saudi deal, but Netanyahu didn’t. He was in a lot of trouble with scandals (https://archive.is/LxyOS). Now he has the entire country rallying around him.
Hamas is funded and entirely run by the Mossad. That’s the way the Jewish state demons work. Controlled opposition is both profitable and flexible.
Note that it’s not the “jews” that are a problem, it’s the sociopathic elite that govern them and also us who need to be annihilated. Pfizer has had an exclusive lock on murdering their own people in Israel for over 2 years now.
Hans,
The only quibble I have with what you said is that Pearl Harbor was a false flag; it wasn’t, because Japan did indeed do the attack. However, FDR and his lieutenants knew the attack was coming, and they allowed it to happen. In actuality, we left the door open, and we let the Japanese in to attack.
Otherwise, I agree with what you said
That’s more a justification to keep fanatical Muslims OUT of the US, not necessarily to get involved in their extended-family squabbles with Jews in Israel.
Of course, it begs the question of what to do with ostensibly “peaceful” Muslims who are ALREADY American citizens. We have this thing called the First Amendment for quite a few reasons. I dunno that I’m ready to chuck it over what some rag-heads in the Middle East do out of frustration and downright stupidity.
The genesis of all this symbolism & patriotic nonsense IMO, which affects practically everyone, is that pathetic ceremony performed almost daily throughout the land. That of course is the âpledge of allegiance.â For as long as I can remember it always reminded me of the Nazis and their grandiose mass displays of thousands of men taking their Hitler oath, the FĂźhrereid. Afterwards they sang âDeutschland Ăber Allesâ — Germany Above Everything.
The salute originally taught in US schools was the infamous Bellamy salute — you know, the one with a stiff arm outstretched toward the flag, and discontinued in 1942 for obvious reasons. To this day it turns my stomach when I see pictures of young innocent kids forced to participate in this disgusting ritual.
I really need to stock up on more Maalox.
‘The Israeli army said itâs making preparations for âsignificant ground operationsâ in Gaza, even as Iran called on Israel to stop the attacks on Gaza, warning Israel would suffer âa huge earthquake,” while the US warned Iran against escalating the conflict.’ — ZeroHedge
Does this not sound like the early days of WW I, in which security cross-guarantees between various European states meant that two shots in obscure Sarajevo quickly escalated into a continent-wide war?
Israel’s ghastly collective punishment of civilians is fine with the US, which instinctively sides with Israel just as Iran instinctively sides with the Palestinians.
When the nonagenarian statesman Jimmy Carter was in the White House, the US took a high profile on ‘human rights.’ Ancient days, comrades: the iron fist of the Israel Lobby obsoleted that doomed campaign with a flood tide of dirty money.
Jimmy Carter’s imminent passing will highlight that bribing two dictatorships and an ethnic-supremacist apartheid state to make nice, while cynically withholding the statehood falsely promised to Palestinians, was a formula not for peace, but for WW frickin’ III.
As Wall Street is fond of saying, ‘Buy the mushroom cloud!’ đ
One can easily blame “perfidious Albion” for why WWI (known at the time as the “Great War”) broke out. The British crown was NOT going to let their Hohenzollern cousins (indeed Kaiser Wilhelm II and George V, and Czar Nicholas II, were all first cousins, all having Victoria as their common grandmother!), dominant on the European mainland, especially since having humiliated the French Bourbon throne some forty years earlier, and asserting themselves with colonies in Africa AND the Pacific, to build a navy that’d rival the Royal Navy. The two empires in Eastern Europe, Austria-Hungary and the Ottoman, were decaying and on the brink of civil war themselves, and ripe for plunder from the Russians, who themselves had long-standing scores to settle. That whole thing about the Austrian Crown Prince being assassinated by Serbian nationalists was simply the EXCUSE needed to touch things off. There was a common theme in all that in 1914…ALL sides believed that whatever war broke out would be BRIEF and relatively CHEAP in terms of manpower, equipment, and money. Didn’t turn out that way, DID IT?
Slightly over a hundred years hence, we see the same sort of arrogance and hubris lead all sides into another unneeded war…only this time, with BIGGER “firecrackers”.
Or, “I stand with killing people by the thousands”. They wouldn’t have to change their banner as often.
They would do better by “standing with” a bit of self examination.
The last time I flew commercial airlines, the return trip, I was waived on through, no scan, no arms up and spread legs. I couldn’t believe it, taken aback as it were.
My wife was a different story, she was frisked and more less interrogated for some reason. The X-ray machine was revealing something about her.
You better be on Israel’s side or else! You better do as you are told or you will be in a lot of trouble. Gazans are on another Trail of Tears, just like the Cherokee. The Palestinians are in no way standing up for the Israelites.
If you say anything that is considered repulsive to the mainstream narrative, you will be persecuted.
One thing I have noticed about the generation of people from ages 25-35 years of age, they seem to be on a killing spree like no other people in the local area. All of a sudden, somebody pulls a piece and boom, you’re dead.
They need to get a hold of themselves, for God’s sake.
Stand up, stand up for Jesus
Not the Pharisees, not Judas, the Jews stand up for Judas, all of the money, so they can go the Judas Iscariot route and all hang themselves. Please kill yourselves, all of you. You make life miserable across every spectrum of life. Good riddance.
Don’t have to lift a finger and the world will be a better place for it. A great sigh of relief will be felt all over the planet. No more hard days, gone forever.

Substitute ‘Jews’ for White Man, you get the picture.
When you spit on Christians who have made a pilgrimage to the Holy Land, you have crossed the line in the sand.
All is fair in love and war, the Jews are getting some of their own medicine.
Another random thought: 34 trillion is just a number much like the Constitution is a piece of paper. Nobody cares how much is owed, you can see it in the eyes of every American, doesn’t matter anymore.

Your common is spot-on.
Most JEWS cannot be trusted. There is a bolshevik communist bent that seems to infect almost all JEWS. (((They))) are doing to Ukraine what the bolsheviks did to Russia. Christian orthodox churches are being forcibly closed in the Ukraine while synagogues are allowed to operate unmolested.
Look for a false flag operation to be unleashed on the USA, not unlike the WTC 911 which WILL be blamed on Iran. Israel is licking its chops hoping to get its “bestest ally”, the USA to go after Iran.
israel is expert in getting others to do its “dirty work for them. Here are a few israel mossad false flag operations:
–crucifixion and death of Jesus Christ, blamed on the Romans but done at the behest of the jews
–1950s Baghdad bombings
–The Lavon affair
–USS Liberty (AGTR-5) June 8, 1967
–war in Lebanon
–WTC 911
–targeted assassinations of Iranian scientists
–war in Ukraine
–Let’s not forget israel’s “Samson Option”.
The zionists are stupid enough to try it, especially if the world goes against them and demands a real solution to the âPalestinian situationâ. Notice that I did not call the Palestinian situation a âproblemâ as it is the foreign zionist jew interlopers who are the âproblemâ.
You see, israelâs nukes are already âin placeâ in cities around the world and as such, no delivery systems are needed. Israelâs nuclear âDamocles swordsâ are ready to go at a momentâs notice. This is a major reason why israel refuses to allow âinternational nuclear arms inspectorsâ to perform inspections. Israel could not account for all of its nukes without revealing that they are not on israeli (Palestinian) soil.
The next â9-11â will be a nuclear detonation (not an exchange or other conflagration) in a major American or European city. Look for an israeli nuke to be detonated in Chicago or Atlanta. âJew York Cityâ is âoff-limitsâ as it is the jewish seat of power in the USA. European targets will be Rome, Brussels or Paris. Jews would LOVE to destroy the seat of the Roman Catholic Church, so look at Rome as being a prime target.
Of course, the nuclear detonation will be blamed on an Arab country, most likely Iran, with Iranian passports being found in the ârubbleâ, just as with 9-11 (yeah, right).
If I had my way, israel would be âembargoedâ until it learns to “grow up” and become a part of the international community.
As an aside, a prominent WTC 911 U S military investigator remarked that “if the TRUTH were ever revealed that israel was responsible for the WTC destruction, israel would cease to exist and no one in the world would give a damn”.
“The jew cries out in pain as he is striking you”.
The Talmud is not readily available for the public to read. The Jewish organizations that oversee the distribution rights to such writings donât want them widely read. When one reads the Talmudic books, one can understand their reasoning. Few Jews, outside of the rabbis, have actually read directly from the Talmud itself.
âIf a Jew be called upon to explain any part of the rabbinic books, he must to give only a false explanation. Who ever will violate this order shall be put to death.â -Libbre David 37

âOnly Jews are human. Gentiles are animals.â -Baba Mezia 114a-114b
 âJehovah created the non-Jew in human form so that the Jew would not have to be served by beasts. The non-Jew is consequently an animal in human form, and condemned to serve the Jew day and night.â -Nidrasch Talpioth, p. 225-L
âIf a Jew is tempted to do evil he should go to a city where he is not known and do the evil there.â -Moed Kattan 17a
âIf a heathen Gentile hits a Jew, the Gentile must be killed. Hit-ting a Jew is hitting God.â -Sanhedrin 58b
âEven the best of the Gentiles should be killed.â -Sanhedrin 59a
 âFor murder, whether of a Cuthean (Gentile) by a Cuthean, or of an Israelite by a Cuthean, punishment is incurred; but of a Cuthean by an Israelite, there is no death penalty.â -Sanhedrin 57a

For the property of a Gentile, according to our law, belongs to no one, and the first Jew that passes has full right to seize it.â -Schulchan Aruch, Choszen Hamiszpat 156
 âIf a goy (Gentile) killed a goy or a Jew he is responsible, but if a Jew killed a goy he is not responsible.â -Tosefta, Aboda Zara, VIII, 5

âWe beg Thee, O Lord, indict Thy wrath on the nations not believing in Thee, and not calling on Thy name. Let down Thy wrath on them and inflict them with Thy wrath. Drive them away in Thy wrath and crush them into pieces. Take away, O Lord, all bone from them. In a moment indict all disbelievers. Destroy in a moment all foes of Thy nation.

I would ask every “Christian” who supports israel and jews what they think of the above jewish talmudic passages…
My paternal grandfather and grandmother were born in Ukraine, near Odessa, on a farm, Catholic to the core. Holy Mary, Mother of God, help us in our hour of need, heard it a lot growing up.
They left in 1920, a two-year old uncle and a three year-old aunt arrived in the United States and left Ukraine for good.
The Bolsheviks invaded, pillaged, killed farmers, stole grain and livestock, burned them out, raped the wives, to add insult to injury, they gave away all of the sentimental items of value to local Jewish people who sold it all for a pittance.
Deep division and hatred lasts to this day, worse yet, the letters from relatives from Russia ceased around 1948. Holomodor was done. They were all gone.
A president of a local small college who was born in and from the same town where my dad was born informed me of what happened in the end.
The wounds don’t heal.
I’d like for you to cite your sources as to Israel placing nuclear MINES throughout the world. Not that I don’t believe they’d do it, methinks them exactly depraved enough. Just simply a matter of whether it’s been done or not.
‘War is the health of the state,’ said Randolph Bourne. The expansion of the state would have been more accurate — the US fedgov is none too healthy as it blasts toward $34 trillion in debt.
Russia invades Ukraine … KABOOM! There goes a hundred billion.
Hamas breaks out of its prison into Israel … KABOOM! goes another hundred billion, soon enough.
George Washington, in his Farewell Address, made perfectly clear that the US should stay the hell out of foreign intrigues like these.
Were Washington running in the 2024 race, he would be slimed as an ‘isolationist,’ an ‘America Firster,’ even an ‘antisemite.’
That Washington was our ultimate patriot tells us that today’s interventionist ethos is fundamentally treasonous, as are those who push it. Expatriate them to Kyiiiiiiiiiv or Tel Aviiiiiiiv. Your heart and your wallet will thank you.
He also warned about the political party system. Washington was not an academic scholar, but he excelled in common sense. The country was lucky to have him as the First President…it has been downhill since.
âThe alternate domination of one faction over another, sharpened by the spirit
of revenge natural to party dissension ⌠is itself a frightful despotism.⠗ George Washington
Half a century went by before Washington’s ‘frightful despotism’ of two entrenched perma-parties solidified. Then another 75 years passed before state governments started running primary elections for the two quasi-official parties — which as private entities, have no right to state subsidies.
For all his good sense, Washington was a Federalist who failed to foresee that the strong central government created by the 1789 constitution would morph into a monster that annihilated state sovereignty. Its garbled gold and silver clause, directed toward the states but not the fedgov, paved the way for the Federal Reserve and worthless paper dollars (not worth a continental, as it were).
A post-WW II wrinkle is the Uniparty national security state (thanks, Harry Truman!), in which the D and R parties compete only on selected, polarizing ‘hot button’ social issues. Meanwhile, the welfare/warfare state trundles on, crushing prosperity and freedom under its wheels whether Tweedledum or Tweedledee is in charge. OBEY!
The Federalists of the late 18th century probably thought they were employing “common sense” (with apologies to Thomas Paine) and establishing a strong ENOUGH Federal Government to provide common security. There was a genuine fear that the relative (and, in retrospect, politically healthy) state of “disunity” would lead to the American states beng picked off, one by one, by the European powers, even the ones that had recently supported their bid for Independence. It should be kept in mind that both France, Spain, and the UK all had North American territory that in effect surrounded and out-flanked the fledgling USA.
What Americans failed to appreciate was that Europe itself was in a pretty bad state of affairs, with France plunging into chaos and revolution shortly after the US Constitution was ratified, and Spain nearly did as well. Britain, while politically stable compared to the European mainland, was in an economic funk and had enough domestic problems to keep itself occupied until that “little” (he was actually of average height for a man of his time) Corsican started making trouble.
Channeling those great philosophers from Athens, GA, REM: “Stand in the place where you live”.
I will not stand with Ukraine. Their bigotry created the mess they’re in.
I will not stand with Israel. Their sanctimony & zealotry created the mess they’re in.
I empathize with the Palestinians, but I will not stand with or for them. They’ve had plenty of opportunities and western money to live peaceably.
I’ll “stand” with the United States, and particularly with the state (of confusion) where I reside, Cali(porn)ia, and the HELL with what goes on across the waters!
The UN out of the USA, and the USA OUT of the UN!
I remember when The Wizard of Oz used to be shown on TV every year.
That should be brought back, but with 1984, and updated each year for the new thing we are being groupthinked into.
Brave New World was assigned reading in high school and I still think about it every time new “instructions” are given by government.
I’m so far behind on things. I just can’t keep up. Like, I haven’t even posted my Ice Bucket Challenge yet, and it’s been seven years.

I am quite behind as well. I am not quite sure how someone pouring a bucket of ice water on oneself helps anybody else, but I guess, to each his own.
My personal favs are the selfie takers who use “I stand with blah, blah, blah” like it is a moment of reflection.
If one wants to truly see how we have completely degraded as a society I suggest watching a few of Joeybtoonz videos. Every time I see one I cringe and plead for the Rapture.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EIcbrFuRfzc
This is his “I stand with Ukraine” video. It is vomit inducing because people have zero pride, but I do like how he mocks them.
Perhaps my sarcasm was not as apparent as I thought.
Standing? How about kneeling before your betters? Just how long will this “standing with” last? Billions are sent to Is-a-Real-Hell every year and have been for decades. This may be the tipping point where nations around the globe are to “be with Israel or against it” and these invading European Jews will find out that most of the planet can’t stand them any longer.
For my fellow Christians “standing with” I would point out a couple passages from the Old Testament that reveal the lost nature of the Zionist project in the Levant. First is 1 Samuel 8 where God warns against “earthly” government. This experiment in post Westphalia nation building is the epitome of that transgression. Second would be the book of Zechariah wherein God breaks his covenant with “the chosen ones”, Zech 11:8-10: The flock detested me, and I grew weary of them 9 and said, âI will not be your shepherd. Let the dying die, and the perishing perish. Let those who are left eat one anotherâs flesh.â
10 Then I took my staff called Favor and broke it, revoking the covenant I had made with all the nations.
Backing those that would mock you and destroy the Palestinian Christians is not a good look. Not to mention the Christian communities that have been destroyed in Iraq, Syria and elsewhere by the U.S. Military in doing the bidding of the Zionists.
Our nation need healing, not kneeling.
https://www.newsweek.com/why-are-flags-half-mast-today-america-state-1834067
SO TRUE. The United States very much needs to get its own house in order. And that “housekeeping” will NOT be due to any GOVERNMENT action, but by personal conversion, including much-needed REPENTANCE, to the God and His principles which our Founders acknowledged.
On August 5, 1945, the most Christian city in Asia was Nagasaki. The 2nd most Christian city in Asia was Hiroshima.
Not as of August 10, 1945, they weren’t.
With some people having been afflicted with COVID jab mania, it’s a wonder someone didn’t come up with something like “I stand with Pfizer” or “I stand with the vaccinated”. And with many people viewing Tony Fauci as some sort of “Public Health Hero”, I’m surprised there hasn’t been a “I stand with Dr. Fauci” campaign on social media, though for a while there was a “Let’s get vaccinated. We can do this” campaign on Facebook, as people who got vaxxed plastered that banner on their profile picture as if to virtue signal to the world about how they “Did their civic duty”.
And with this insane push for NET ZERO disguised as “Saving the planet from climate change”, what are the odds that someone will come up with a quote like “I stand with the climate”?
Done already!

Hi ML,
To quote Charlie Brown, “Good Grief!” And what was this “New economy” that those protesters were demanding be created, a NET ZERO ECONOMY? If that’s what they were demanding, it’s akin to demanding your own impoverishment.
At least they no longer insist we all stand for (insert BS here) by kneeling.
Unless you are POTUS:

Such is the case with nearly all traitors.

Only natural for a mechanism equipped with roller bearing lips, pistol grip ears, and fold away teeth.
Seems to me the Left is largely standing with the Palestinians. Itâs the MAGA dimwits who stand with Israel.
Because, thanks to so many in DC “standing” with Isra-Hell, the Loony Left identifies with the Palestinians, not because they actually give a shite about them, but it’s another excuse to HATE America.
What many on BOTH sides don’t realize is how much the Zionist Jews that control Isra-Hell ALREADY HATE America. We’re just “Shabbos Goyim” to them, to be used, bled dry, and discarded like yesterday’s newspaper when done with us.
For those who haven’t seen it yet, this is an excellent comedy bit on taking a stand:

“The Left excels at âstandingâ with various things.”
And the Right stands against nothing.
Hi Howard,
Well-said. The Right – which is functionally synonymous with “conservative” – conserves nothing. And so it advances nothing – except Leftism.
Anyone notice that now we are being asked to stand with Israel or with the Palestinians or with Ukraine or with Russia? What kind of stand should one take? What if I reject this whole notion of standing and choose to remain silent and sit? Or go my own way? Or recognize that this world is crazy and neither side is worthy of recognition and support?
I like your blog because you are one of the few who doesnât belong to a right or left tribe. None of the above!
Thanks, Howard!
I keep trying to expand out little outfit of Wrongthinkers and misfits…
Democrats = fast progressives.
Republicans = slow progressives.
I stand with Eric Peters for standing against this standing business!
Thanks, Eric!
And I stand with you, too!
I stand with the “Ma Mopar” of the late 1950s to about 1981, when the “Corporate Fascist”, the late Lee Iacocca, supposedly “saved” the ol’ Pentastar by turning it into a Hammtrack, MI, clone of Mitsubishi, K-cars and all, and especially those minivans.
Give me a ’72 Plymouth Satellite Sebring with a 400 B-Block, fed by a Carter four barrel, backed by the bulletproof A727 Torqueflite, anyday. Sure, you need your own gas station to fuel it, but you’re cruising with honest-to-“Gawd” Detroit IRON, in comfort, power, and STYLE. And NO ONE ELSE “controls” it but YOU.
