The most galling thing to me is the ready acceptance that a multiple time draft dodger who declared his debauchery & STDs his "personal Vietnam" has the moral authority to send young Americans to die for his political purposes.

This is very good news.

I keep finding myself reading non-fiction & fiction about WW2. I suspect my motives are the same - people demonstrating integrity & principles in the face of evil + the fact of consequences for evil doers. These are such dark days. Grasping for hope.

Question: If England told the WH that we cannot use their bases in the war on Iran, why are there images of bombs being loaded onto US planes in England??? @atrupar.com @aaronparnas.bsky.social @maddow.bsky.social @aljazeera.com @thevaluesvoter.bsky.social

Just for something different, I love South Africa's Nadine Gordimer's writing. Once Upon a Time is a favorite. I wouldn't know it if I hadn't taught it. You can find a free pdf online.

U.S. bombing campaign on Iran: scale and cost Shared via Claude, an AI assistant from Anthropic

She forgets there are pesky things called facts. The sheer cost & tonnage belies her claims. So do 168 dead school girls. Yes, this is AI, but links to sourcez are embedded. claude.ai/share/faaa70...

effect, which is not happening, to maintain & grow power, as well as hold off the Dems in the midterms. None of it is wise. None of the serious ramifications & ripple effects were thought through. We are suffering & people are dying because of 2 narcissistic egomaniacs. END

Of course I can. It's about two corrupt leaders seeking to cling to power. The Israeli's do not like their leader & without his two wars, he'd be long gone. We have a leader whose poll numbers are cratering as prices soar & more Epstein files are released; he hopes for a "rally round the flag" 1/

Putting him and "bright ideas" in the same thought is oxymoronic.

I am glad to see others are wide awake at 1:34 AM. I am equally glad to have night time lighting to ponder instead of a world set on fire by a couple of lunatics.

One of the most galling facts: our tax dollars pay for this lunacy.

He is also extremely intelligent & an exceptional scholar. He is the best PR face for the Florida #Gators since Tebow.

I'm not even sure he "serves" in Congress either.

was evil, but DT too was perfidious. Our strike against Iran was worse because we were in active negotiations, albeit with unqualified & incompetent negotiators who had as much skill as the hunt & peck Japanese typist. We are supposed to be better than that. No longer. END

One of the most egregious & perfidious acts of the Japanese in WW2 was striking PH before breaking off diplomatic relations. True, some of that was lack of a competent typist. The Japanese ambassador arrived to meet with the SOS after Pearl Harbor had been decimated. Iran's regime 1/๏ฟผ
