I am not giving war crimes a pass. Hell no!

Just saying it is reality. The brutality, cruelty, barbarism of humans is unleashed on the micro and macro level in war. And we humans just keep repeating tired defeatist patterns of behavior. I had to reflect for a few days before i came to a decision as to the right path in Ukraine. Just like everyone…[Read more]

Unseen, dya think Japan would have surrendered if Allies had simply dumped one in the ocean and maybe caused a tidal wave or tsunami? Then give the message that failure to surrender immediately will result in same weapon delivered to Tokyo and all major cities.

Imagine how unsettling it is to have insane ideologues an ever present threat? That is a tough way to live.

How hard is this to solve or at…[Read more]

Robert, don’t deceive yourself. You should consider going someplace safe where there is no flooding like Kentucky.

Free markets are more efficient than the free market place of ideas. At least there is that. If the market were restricted to intelligent and reasonable ones like Strega, Robert, Fronkey et al then we would be able to weed out…[Read more]
