Post Election Commentary Rupert Lowe might be right. Minus the Iran war - it is very possible that Republicans would have retained Congress. A consideration to test the limits of our power has remained highly unpopular; and for many Americans it remains an unforgivable action. We were promised no future wars with this administration. The confidence gap is wider than the Strait of Hormuz. https://x.com/RupertLowe10/status/2117886433511829782 With time on their hands, the General Consulate of the Republic of Iran in Najf releases a message on the occasion of the "Day of Confronting Global Arrogance".

We did not awaken to Bastille Day. One of the achievements of the Iranian nation's histor...

Independence Day! As I traveled to our polling station today it was with a sense of tremendous gratitude. And while we celebrate our Independence on the 4th of July, nothings smacks of independence more that the ability to cast a vote without fear. I visited with several of my neighbors, turned down the "I voted" sticker and returned home. This has been the first election with massive intrusion into my cell phone. Surveys... hideous little videos... alarming sound bites... is the sky falling? I even received a text from a "pastor" warning me about the Muslim nation. Zzzz If you are an American, you have the right to cast a vote. Period. Full stop. But it did remind me of the usual Old Testament paradigm. The king always wanted the power of the prophet and the priest wanted the power of the king. The Old Testament is the grinding story of lust for power, in all of its incarnations. Who was this pastor who presumed to tell me how to vo...

Iran Carefully Signals President Donald J Trump has become a bit difficult to read. There is reticence to address resolving the issue with Iran because it is a popular driver of an unpopular topic with the voters. Narratives are headlining with words like "a blue tsunami". And while I believe the mid-terms will provide a few surprises, I believe Republicans will retain control of Congress. Tehran is sending out small signals and they seem based on an uneasiness regarding post-election administration policy. Administratively, things are moving along for a prolonged stalemate. The Defense Minister has met with Brigadier General Musavi dedicated to assuring the Aerospace Force has all of its needs met. Iran has scuttled all protocols for inspection of their nuclear facilities and declare that the nation's power is the guarantor for this arrangement. There is a lack of mutual respect and trust, bifurcated expectations, and the long shado...

Oxford University: Untreated Staff Mental Illness Is an Oxford University education a good investment for your child? Or should your child be awarded an internship within a locked mental facility as a viable option for their alternative education? But I repeat myself.... https://www.dailymail.com/news/article-16254459/Bearded-Oxford-University-lecturer-students-fake-breasts-lipstick.html

Freedom Never apologize for freedom: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E7SNJ5j0Dsw&list=RDE7SNJ5j0Dsw&start_radio=1 Do not apologize. Rejoice - that God has declared you free: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6GxWmSVv-cY&list=RD6GxWmSVv-cY&start_radio=1 Rejoice in the sound of the brass, the clanging cymbal, the tambourine. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0kiQZO8e2AA&list=RD0kiQZO8e2AA&start_radio=1 Be grateful for the vast array of freedoms, hard-earned by the men and women of deep and abiding faith, who preceded you in this journey. Look to the great cloud of witnesses. Follow their lead and their example: https://www.esv.org/Hebrews+12/ Do not sell your freedom, offered long ago, before a man named Muhammad arose to take it away. It was not this man who made America what she is today. It is the millions who fled Europe, who sacrificed that you might be free. Cling to the health which comes with liberty. Because if you embrace s...

The Devil's Flute Meanwhile in Syria... a group of Sunni men are busy stirring up the usual trouble for the rest of the population: I have an idea of exactly where they can shove that flute - but this link seems an appropriate response to the Neanderthals of Islam. And there should be a mighty thunder. Because the link below is the sound of freedom. Islam has no such concept. A nation of slaves. Bound and sold on the auction block of the thoughts of the one man. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n_GFN3a0yj0&list=RDn_GFN3a0yj0&start_radio=1 I am not surprised these thugs pulled into the mix the prohibition of men from wearing silk. Once, when some of the Companions of the Prophet ended up with a bad case of (scabies)? they were allowed to wear silk. But gold? Men are not allowed to wear gold - hence OBL had his silver ring. Muhammad saw more women in Hell because they wore gold. Pissed him off that they wouldn...
