Another Pogrom in the West Bank

Haaretz reported today that illegal Israeli settlers expelled at least 14 Palestinian families in the Deir Alla village in the southern West Bank. The settlers set fire to buildings, assaulted residents, vandalized homes, and threatened to burn down homes unless the residents left.

The Israeli military routinely allows illegal Israeli settlers to carry out these pogroms against the indigenous population of Palestine because the Israeli regime wants to expel as many Palestinians as possible to fa...

A Warning from History: Goethe and the Folly of German Militarism

“As for (German Chancellor) Mr. Merz, he has repeatedly said amusing things, including that his main goal is to once again make Germany the leading military power in Europe. He didn’t even choke on the word ‘again’.” -Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov, July 11th, 2025

On Wednesday, May 14th, 2025, the German Chancellor Friedrch Merz made a statement in the Bundestag asserting that he was intent on transforming the Bundeswehr into “the strongest European army”. But while this policy announce...

Leftists Can’t Take a Joke

It is important to debate ideas.  Debating those who disagree with you clarifies your own thoughts and shores up weaknesses in your reasoning.  Civil argument is wonderful exercise for the mind.  Healthy minds make good citizens.  Good citizens maintain strong societies.

It is, therefore, not an exaggeration to conclude that one of the first signs of a crumbling society is the inability of its people to argue peacefully among themselves.

I think most people born before 1990 would agree that publ...

Ending Medical Gaslighting

Every now and then, regardless of how difficult things are or how much you begin to doubt what you are doing, you will come across something that reminds you that what you are doing matters and you need to continue.

That happened to me today when I saw a recent JAMA study surveying pregnant mothers and parents of young children, which found:

That study, in turn, concluded with:

Given the high decisional uncertainty during pregnancy about vaccinating children after birth, there may be value in i...

Destroy Russia. Fail? No Problem: Let’s Destroy China!

Never underestimate the incoming tsunami of disruptive “analysis” and predictive programming already embedded in the Hybrid War on China – and the larger war on BRICS.

Never underestimate the incoming tsunami of disruptive “analysis” and predictive programming already embedded in the Hybrid War on China – and the larger war on BRICS.

Cue to the latest 128-page report by the Hudson Institute in D.C. titled oh so prophetically, China After Communism: Preparing for a Post-CCP China.

You are fully e...

An Open Letter to Treasury Secretary Bessent

Dear Secretary Bessent,

I read with great interest your July 21 comment at the Federal Reserve Capital Conference that: “What we need to do is examine the entire Federal Reserve institution and whether they have been successful. . . . All of these Ph.D.s over there, I don’t know what they do. . . . This is like Universal Basic Income for academic economists.”

Having been an academic Ph.D. economist for forty-one years I believe I can offer a little insight into whether the Fed has been successfu...

Top Epstein Historian Blows the Whistle

Under massive pressure from his MAGA base, President Donald Trump ordered Attorney General Pam Bondi to release grand jury testimony regarding the Epstein case. For a whole bunch of reasons, don’t expect anything of substance to come out of this order. It’s a smokescreen to try and mollify MAGA without letting the real truth come out. I doubt that the order is even legal.

Another example of the government coverup of the Epstein case is that House Speaker Mike Johnson shut down the House early th...

Gaza Children: ‘At Least Heaven Has Food’

Jesus loves the little children

All the children of the world
Red and yellow, black and white
They are precious in his sight
Jesus loves the little children of the world

Lyrics from Jesus Loves The Little Children by Woolston and Root

This famous children’s song written in the late 1800s and first published in 1913, does not say that Jesus loves all the children except for those living in Gaza. It says all children, even the little ones of Gaza, are precious to Jesus.

Thus, it is awfully hard to...
