A doozy of an anti-Netanyahu/Trump two-fer
The claim that the Israeli prime minister crafted the U.S. president’s Truth Social post is as laughable as it is a lie.

New York City’s Highly Dubious Mayoral Race

Strengthening the Flickering Flame of Life and Morality
Data shows that physical pain is not the primary motivator for choosing death. Rather, it is loss of autonomy, fear of being a burden, or the inability to engage in enjoyable activities.
Why Not Regime Change In Iran?

Iran Is an Enemy of the United States

Eliminating Iran’s Nuclear Sites Means No One Can Use Them Later
Trump's Churchillian Decision:
An Open Letter to Isolationists
The delusional wish of Isolationists to militarily disengage from Islamic terrorism, establish peaceful coexistence, and be preoccupied with the domestic agenda, must be based on global and Middle East reality; not on alternate reality.
Will Trump Really Agree to Some Fake ‘Deal’ ?
The US urgently needs to spearhead not another porous, fake "nuclear deal" but real security, stability and freedom -- not only for millions of Muslims, Christians and Jews, but also for the great people of Iran who have been forced to suffer under vicious psychopathic despots long enough.

Mocking Anti-Israel Protesters: A Defense
Miss Thunberg, in the eyes of many, carries moral authority, without any need to actually articulate a moral argument. The mistaken assumption of gravitas and moral wisdom is very dangerous and has real-world consequences.
