[[[ Right now, as per Real Clear Politics, the average of polls shows that Trump himself has an overall approval rating of just 38%, compared with a 60% disapproval rating...NOT good for we Republicans as we are just a month away from the midterm elections.

So what does Trump decide to do...he's now 'mega' campaigning this month for Republican candidates to try to at least hold onto the Senate. But what Trump does NOT understand is that he is actually hurting these Republican candidates who had a better chance of winning without him than they do with him publicly being on their side. 

 

And why...because whether some want to accept it or not, the fact is that this midterm election IS indeed a referendum on both Trump's economic and foreign policies...and of course his public persona replete with his me, me, me...I,I,I...discourse. But what is truly upsetting to me is that he's campaigning while the Iran War continues on while even more Iranian 'freedom fighters' are being executed by the day, along with Israel being on high alert after the recent 'FlyDubi' hijack attempt.

 

Trump should be in Washington attending to the matters at hand NOT out campaigning during a time of war, and btw the price per barrel of oil has again gone up today...just saying. ]]]

A Very Important Must Read

I, Diane Sori, am sharing this MUST READ post from X @Xking332

 

"The UAE is in serious trouble. Israel is now suspecting the direct involvement of certain UAE officials in the attempted hijacking of FlyDubai Flight FZ1073.

 

Without several deliberate security violations, the hijacking would have been impossible. To make matters even more suspicious, UAE and Saudi officials still refuse to release the name of the suicidal Omani pilot. (His name has now been released as 29-year old Hammam al-Hammami.

 

The pilot went through 2 body scanners, a metal detector and an X-ray scanner with a knife. No alarm went off during the screening. Another suspicion is that an influential airport official may have already placed the weapon inside the cockpit.

 

Things get even stranger. Yesterday, Flight FZ1073 suddenly departed from a different terminal than usual. It used Terminal 3 instead of Terminal 2. Security screening is also much tighter at Terminal 3. So there are questions over how the pilot could have taken a knife onto the aircraft without inside support.

 

Pilots on the flight are also required to be nationals of countries with diplomatic relations with Israel. The pilot is from Oman. And Oman has no diplomatic relations with Israel. This is another major security breach.

[[[ And so some still wonder about the '"FlyDubi" co-pilot's loyalties even after passengers reported they heard shouts of "allahu akbar" while the attempted hijacking was taking place...even after the wounded pilot (and hero) attested that the co-pilot did appear to be radicalized...even after we find out 4 Americans were also on the flight...even after the UAE's president's diplomatic advisor Anwar Gargash stated that the recent attempted hijacking of a FlyDubi flight to Tel Aviv was a "dangerous terrorist act"...even after Israel's El Al airline was forced to cancel rescue flights to Dubai to pick up now stranded Israelis and Americans after authorities revoked needed landing permissions. And still worse is the fact that even after all this is proven to be irrevocably true, the Jew haters and pro-Palestinian supporters here in our country will still try to blame these happenings on Israel and the Jews, and be very vocal about it.

 

And the sad reality (even while 2+2 still=4) is that this very mindset has now started to be seen on a number of social media sites. Oh what a "bizarro" world we now live in...a world where "indoctrinated hate" has cancelled out both common sense and logical thinking...how sad and maddening is that. ]]]

Trump says he regrets nominating Gorsuch, Kavanaugh and Barrett

Julia Manchester / THE HILL

President Trump revealed in an interview published Thursday that he regrets nominating conservative Justices Neil Gorsuch, Brett Kavanaugh, and Amy Coney Barrett to the Supreme Court. 

“Yeah. Yeah. What can I do? I put them in,” Trump told Time magazine when asked whether he regretted nominating the three justices to the high court. “They voted against me too often,” the president continued. “I gave them the position of a lifetime, and they vote against me often. They vote for me too.”

Trump went on to note how Democrats “stick like glue” when they vote, saying he admires the party’s loyalty to their leaders. 

“So they have loyalty to Barack Hussein Obama. They have loyalty to Biden, even though Biden doesn’t even know who the hell they are. He wouldn’t know. He doesn’t even know what the Supreme Court is. And me, I gave them the chance of a lifetime, and it’s unfortunate what they did,” he said.

When asked if he wants loyalty from his Supreme Court picks, Trump said he wants “good decisions.”

Flydubai saga captures Israel’s role in a new Middle East - and its old limits

DIPLOMATIC AFFAIRS: From Netanyahu’s UAE visit to the emergency landing in Saudi Arabia, a dramatic week reveals the possibilities and limits of regional cooperation.

Herb Keinon / JERUSALEM POST 

Wednesday’s flydubai saga crammed the new Middle East into a single aircraft.

An Emirati airline carrying Israelis made an emergency landing in Saudi Arabia amid war with Iran – and the incident was immediately drawn into an Israeli election campaign dominated by the question of who can keep the country safe.

Talk about one event bringing everything together.

But beyond the frightening drama aboard the plane, the incident also brought something else into focus: how much the region has changed, and where the limits of that change lie.

Israelis were flying home on an Emirati airline. When their flight turned into a nightmare, they landed in Saudi Arabia, received medical attention and assistance, and were eventually collected by another Emirati aircraft and brought to Israel. 

For all the tensions, wars, and political sensitivities, that sequence is worth noting. The absence of Saudi-Israeli diplomatic relations did not prevent the passengers from receiving help or getting home. Read more, and see photos here.
