Fellow Unbelievers:

An interesting piece of archeology to add to the ideosphere of the Middle East:

Jewish presence predates Islam in Arabia

The looney “Free Palestine” crowd are now going to “just ask the questions”:…[Read more]

Iran’s respite from attacking Israel may not simply be or be at all about not wanting their tops to die. I just wonder if it is true whether they plan to invade again.

Hamas has “achieved” nothing but repression and destruction and the only way to “Free Palestine” is to free it from Hamas as well as their Palestinian Authority rival Fatah.

One can rightly criticize Bibi’s Intel for their failure of imagination, as well as Trump for his “Board of Peace” which is just his attempt to make the Israel-Hamas…[Read more]

I always found it idiotic that so many Western ‘activists’ continue treating Hamas as an emblem of liberation. They bite down on the bait every time in order to confirm their biases. I am yet to meet one of them that has any real understanding of the history of the area. Maybe change does come from within. As “Bibi” said after October 7th, “Hamas…[Read more]

BTW Enco i was ridiculing my own confirmation bias. It is nearly impossible to kill all of the time. We are human.

Nothing per se wrong with confirmation bias as long as you acknowledge it and keeping it in perspective.

My confirmation bias is assuring that I have coordinates on Earth as a living, rational, free, flourishing human…[Read more]

Enco,

I was asking AI whether there was any intelligence. Not restricted to US intelligence. It seems AI interpreted my question that way or CHOSE to limit its answer that way. It would be nails in the coffin if we had knowledge of the documents/conversations among the high mucky much of terrorists. (Recently read about library of…[Read more]

Jake:

Recall though, that U.S. Intelligence Community, didn’t foresee either the first attack on the World Trade Center in 1993 or 9/11/2001, (not to mention Tiananmen Square, the collapse of the Soviet Union, the fall of The Berlin Wall, the end of Communism in the Eastern Bloc, the end of Apartheid in South Africa, etc. ad nauseum). So again,…[Read more]

Enco,

For the first time i asked AI the following question.

Is there intelligence that Muslim Brotherhood and its affiliates are trying to orchestrate major terrorist attacks in USA?

Answer from AI

United States intelligence assessments indicate that the main global core of the Muslim Brotherhood is not currently trying to orchestrate major…[Read more]

Fellow Unbelievers:

Unlike the oblivious writers at Commentary, this writer somewhat gets it:

Arthur Herman
Did America Win the War on Terror?
It depends on where you look.

He does overestimate our foreign prowess against Islamic terrorism, however he does at least acknowledge areas where…[Read more]

Yes, I doubt if Mr. Gray is ever the most colorful actor on the party scene. He probably belongs to some branch of the ‘reality based community’.

Ron Suskind would have really been the life of the party if he’d have just named the name of the one who made the quote, and he would have been really ‘reality based.’

Yes, I doubt if Mr. Gray is ever the most colorful actor on the party scene. He probably belongs to some branch of the ‘reality based community’. 🙂

The idea of progress is a dangerous lie.

Phew! Bet John Gray’s the life of the party!

Sunday Book Club: When Everyone Knows That Everyone Knows by Steven Pinker.

Cue the Leonard Cohen, who, according to Neal from The Young Ones, is both alive and yet dead:

Jake:

2026 is the year of saying two things at once that seem contradictory at first blush but really aren’t.

Enco,

It has to be a bubble burster filled with excrement to believe so fervently in the German master race or in the living god Hirohito and then be crushed like an organ grinder monkey among killer chimps. I think that sentiment hits much harder when the counterpunch involves more than just Dear John letters. On other hand it can be done…[Read more]

Jake:

The purpose however is at least in part to terrorize the populace. And listen it worked. Those groups changed for the better. Correlation or cause and effect? I have already indicated my opinion. Just like the counter terrorism measures applied in the USA ya have to ask whether those have been difference makers.

What I think worked was…[Read more]

Enco and it rhymes with Aamco. Double a m c o. Franchisee of Aamco was my first client.

War on drugs was misguided. War on terror is not. And again killing the terrorists is insufficient. Islam will continue to indoctrinate little ones into lives of terrorism. To see the acts of terror by Muslims as simply a reaction to western colonialism or…[Read more]

Jake:

Glad to see that I am not the only one to acknowledge that The War on Terror is not over. Also glad you acknowledge that inhuman ideas such as those of Islam are the root of terrorism. I just wish the influencer set would put down the toys and albums on their shelves and get back in the intellectual fight.

The definition of terrorism…[Read more]

The biggest customers of the BioCharger are probably Putineers who are proclaining: “Great Czar Ivan the Terrible’s Ghost! The BioChargers must have survived The Great Mud Floods that destroyed Tartaria! Now we can have eternal life too like Comrade Putin and Emperor Xi!”

(Caution: If you decide to read more about Tarataria, do so…[Read more]

Post stamp Israel can’t stop terrorism. USA can?

In a pig’s rectum. The horror and despicable acts of terror are limited only by imagination particularly for members of a death cult. If you deny that you are essentially giving credit to the forces aligned against them as god-like or they are stupid and incompetent terrorists.

Shoot up…[Read more]
