Just Another Thought

[[[ Five years ago today we withdrew from Afghanistan in what was in actuality a defeat. Five years from today I hope we’re not facing the same scenario with Iran, which could be a possibility. Why so...because not since WWII has a president's what should be focus to win a war actually been put on the “back burner” while forgetting that ”bombs that go “boom” does not make a war won.

The Korean War, aka“a police action,” still sees Korea divided in two. The Vietnam War saw us hightailing it out of there in 1975 after the fall of Saigon. And our 20-year involvement in Afghanistan saw Biden hastily pulling us out after the Taliban re-seized control of Afghan's government. And to add insult to our injury, Biden forced us to leave behind U.S.military equipment which is now in the hands of the Taliban. But saddest of all is that in the action of withdrawing 13 U.S. service members were killed due to Biden's ineptitude.

So it should not be all that surprising that we have yet to achieve true victory in Iran, especially when our president now seems to be more focused on becoming “king and controller” of all the world's oil supplies then he is on fighting to win this rightful war being fought as he'd rather make deals with the enemy than actually using militarily force to get them to surrender,

And so with Trump's ego puffed up courtesy of his Venezuelan oil win, we could well see Iran becoming both Vietnam and Afghanistan revisited with the Iranian people now sadly being his sacrificial lamb. ]]]

[[[ This morning, the "Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope"...America's next generation of space telescopes...has been successfully launched by NASA as it heads on its mission to solve the mystery surrounding "dark energy" while searching for thousands of "exoplanets," and studying "infrared astrophysics." 

 

Every step we take on this journey gets us one step closer to proving the TRUTH that, "WE ARE NOT ALONE." 

 

And with certain close family members being involved in the Moon, Mars, and beyond missions, I herald this great step forward, and count the days to the Moon launch...50+ years in the waiting will finally soon be over for space truly is our future. ]]]

[[[ Islam does not need jihad to conquer America…misguided Americans who vote for muslim candidates are doing their job for them. ]]]

 

[[[ When Trump was running for President in 2024 he promised to end Russia's war with Ukraine in one day. Well, that one day has now morphed into years, and said war is not abating at all. In fact, it's increasing in intensity as it gets nearer to Kiev by the day. Just something to think about as our what was to be "just a few weeks of war" with Iran also shows no sign of ending anytime soon. ]]]

Relocation of US arms from Europe may expose vulnerabilities in US global military posture - report

Some officials described the situation as “beyond critical,” with arms moved to the Middle East from stockpiles in Europe and Asia creating shortages that could take years to replenish.

JERUSALEM POST STAFF  

Military planners in Washington worry that dwindling munitions stores may reduce the US’s ability to defend against potential threats from Russia and China, according to a Friday Wall Street Journal report citing US officials familiar with the matter.

While the officials noted that Western military officials have assessed that full-scale attacks from Russia and China are not imminent, they told the WSJ that insufficient weapons stockpiles have left vulnerabilities in the US’s global military posture.

Some officials described the situation as “beyond critical,” with arms moved to the Middle East from stockpiles in Europe and Asia creating shortages that could take years to replenish.

Administration officials have reportedly assessed that due to weapons being moved out of Asia for use in the war with Iran, the US may not be able to fully carry out contingency plans to defend Taiwan in case of a Chinese invasion. Read more here. 

Death and destruction Russian attack hits Ukraine’s Kyiv region, killing at least 27 people as war rages

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said that a warehouse had been struck “followed by a detonation.” 

Associated Press / NEW YORK POST 

At least 27 people have been killed following a Russian attack on the Bucha district, close to the Ukrainian capital of Kyiv, officials said Saturday.

Tymur Tkachenko, head of the local regional military administration, said that at least 50 residential buildings had been damaged in the attack, which also sparked a large-scale fire that spread to homes and a restaurant.

In a statement, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said that a warehouse had been struck in the village of Myla “followed by a detonation.”

He did not give details on the site, but wrote in the same message that criminal proceedings had been opened on charges of official negligence.

“There are regulations in place — ammunition cannot be stored near homes or other residential areas,” Zelensky said.

The Ukrainian leader wrote that a care home for elderly people and people with disabilities and residential buildings were damaged. Read more, and see photos here.

[[[ In this time of war with Iran we now also find ourselves at war with our northern neighbor Canada...a Trump initiated tariff based war of sorts now having morphed into a nasty economic PR war...with both countries acting like a 2-year old in the midst of a temper tantrum. One one side is President Trump and his silly "Lake Ontario" name changing game vs the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) now telling its staff NOT to refer to "9/11" as a “terrorist attack” during what will be their upcoming coverage of the "25th Anniversary of "9/11"...the very event that literally woke the world up from what was its deep sleep of complacency. 

 

What President Trump did with his "Lake America" theatrics was uncalled for, calculatingly done to be divisive, yet at the same time being silly at best. However, what Canada's CBC has now done...especially after having told its staff the same thing after the "October 7, 2023" happenings in Israel...should show us and the world that those we once thought to be our ally and friend should never be taken at face value for sometimes said face is but a mask to cover one's true intent and loyalty. 

 

And sadly, in the case of Canada, the mask when unveiled was in regards to the very "terrorist attack" that forever changed the world as we know it. I only hope that Canada's prime minister steps in and tells the CBC "NO" for if the CBC goes through with this not only will Canada have defamed and disrespected both the victims and the heroes of "9/11," but America's friendly relationship with Canada will rightfully never be the same again. ]]]

Justice delayed for 1988 Lockerbie bombing victims’ families as trial pushed back over new evidence:

‘Roller coaster of emotions’

Natalie O'Neill / NEW YORK POST 

Heartbroken relatives of victims killed in the 1988 Lockerbie bombing said Wednesday they still plan to come face-to-face with one of the alleged terrorists behind the attack — even as his trial was suddenly delayed due to new evidence.

Some family members had hoped to “stare down” Abu Agila Mohammad Mas’ud Kheir Al-Marimi  — who’s charged with making the bomb that killed 259 people aboard Pan Am flight 103 and 11 people on the ground — as jury selection was set to begin Wednesday in Washington, DC, relatives told The Post. 

But justice was put on hold after mysterious new evidence emerged, leaving loved ones with an unfinished chapter in the tragic, 37-year-old case.

“There are some family members that will stare at him — it brings them peace to stare him down,” said Kara Weipz, whose brother, Rick Monetti, was killed in the historic attack. “I don’t care to look at him.” Read more, and see photos here.
