The Great Moron will be 80 Next Week: More Dozing and Dazing at the Wheel

Brace yourselves, my fellow 'Mericans. The joy ride with the Greatest Ever American Moron is about to get even more dangerous as he sinks further into dementia, senility and the like. Since he was born an idiot, this transition is so smooth that no one seems to notice that the US is led by an imbecile who is turning senile. 

As a younger man, Trump was very "penile", lashing out his reproductive organs at young and old women alike and often getting caught with his pants down: He is an equal opportunity sex scavenger. Now as an older, but unfortunately not wiser, idiot he spends most of his time sleeping and dozing off. DOZY DON is visibly worse than his predecessor "Sleepy Joe". Then when he appears a bit awake, the dozing off becomes even more like dazing: a state of confusion, mumbling on words, ranting into space over strange subjects that almost always are inappropriate for the circumstance.

'Tis sad that the country celebrates its 250th with a dangerous moron at the helm.

Trump to join Biden in 80-year-old presidents' club: Is his health an issue?

Zac Anderson, USA TODAY
Sun, June 7, 2026 

President Donald Trump wanted everyone to know he didn't fall asleep on the job.

Following a lengthy Cabinet meeting in December during which the president closed his eyes for stretches, giving the appearance he was dozing, Trump offered Cabinet officials an explanation at their next gathering. He told them he had shut his eyes at the previous meeting because it was "boring."

"I didn't sleep, I just closed them because I wanted to get the hell out of here," Trump said, adding: "I don't sleep much."

After mocking his predecessor with the nickname "Sleepy Joe," Trump has increasingly faced questions about his own fitness as his second term wears on, sparking strong pushback from the president and his allies.

The spotlight on Trump's health is likely to intensify, though, as he prepares to join an exclusive club of octogenarian White House occupants, one started by the president he often ridicules.

The oldest person ever elected president, Trump, on June 14, will become just the second 80-year-old to hold the job after Joe Biden, who was pressured by leaders of his own party not to seek reelection and dropped out of the 2024 race amid concerns about his age and mental acuity.

Biden prompted a national debate about aging and leadership that was fueled by Trump's relentless questioning of his opponent's mental competence. Now, as Trump approaches a major birthday milestone, he, too, is facing scrutiny about his health. That includes questions about his swollen legs, bruised hands, and perceived drowsiness – not to mention, as polling indicates, behavior most Americans view as erratic.

At an age when many people are slowing down, Trump is trying to negotiate an end to the war in Iran and making other weighty decisions. He has sought to assure the public he's up to the task, regularly boasting that he "aced" his cognitive exams and saying last month, after a physical, that "everything checked out perfectly." He has continued to tout his vigor, which has been central to his political pitch.

"Most people don't welcome frailty, but I think he's really reactive to it, wants to distance himself in every way from any possible hint of it," said Trump biographer Gwenda Blair.

Whether or not he wants the attention, surveys show most Americans have concerns about the president's fitness.

'80 isn't what it used to be'

A Washington Post/ABC News/Ipsos survey from April found that 55% of U.S. adults don't believe Trump is in "good enough physical health to serve effectively as president," up from 28% in 2023. Nearly 6 in 10 also don't believe the president "has the mental sharpness" required for the job.

Amid the growing public concern, the president's doctor says Trump is "fully fit" for office and White House spokesman Davis Ingle described his energy as "unmatched."

"President Trump is the sharpest and most accessible President in American history who is working nonstop to solve problems and deliver on his promises, and he remains in excellent health," Ingle said.

It's not surprising for someone of Trump's age to face health questions. The president has exceeded – by three and a half years – the average lifespan for an American man.

Yet about half of men now live into their 80s, and those who are wealthier and better-educated tend to live the longest said Steven Austad, a professor at The University of Alabama at Birmingham who is an expert on aging. Trump is a billionaire with an Ivy League degree, and his father lived to 93.

"80 isn't what it used to be," Austad said, adding: "The question is: What kind of 80-year-old are you?"

Trump has long sought to project strength, what Blair described as the "ultimate virility," and the president's allies say he still has plenty of energy. They point to his busy schedule of public events, travel, late-night posts on his Truth Social site and regular interactions with the media.

"I think most people would kill to be as active as he is at a fraction of his age," said Sean Spicer, who served as White House press secretary during Trump's first term. "I mean, I'm in my 50s, and I kind of get a kick out of the fact that I'm in bed hours before he stops truthing."

While reaching the ninth decade of life is a major moment, Trump isn't prone to reflecting on it, according to a White House official, who said the president doesn't talk about his birthday. That's always been the case, said former GOP House speaker Kevin McCarthy.

"All the time I've known him, when it comes to his birthday, he really doesn't like to celebrate," McCarthy said, adding: "It's just his style."

This year, Trump is staging an Ultimate Fighting Championship contest at the White House on his birthday, but the White House official said that is just how the timing worked out for the event, and it wasn't conceived as a birthday celebration.

Blair, the biographer, sees significance in the show of brute force on a day when Trump's advanced age will be in the spotlight, saying it will project "total strength."

Trump has long criticized what he saw as Biden's weakness. Concerns about how age impacted Biden as he occupied the Oval Office into his 80s could add to the scrutiny Trump faces. However, McCarthy said there's no comparison between the two.

"There's a fundamental difference, and it's in a lot of different ways," said McCarthy, adding: "I think Trump, you can put him against any president in our history, and I bet you he still outworks 'em.' Age doesn't determine that with him."

Swollen legs, bruised hands, closed eyes

Yet health questions have been accumulating in Trump's second term.

Last year, the president was diagnosed with chronic venous insufficiency, a benign condition that causes swelling in his lower legs and one that the White House doctor noted is common in people over 70.

Trump also has experienced bruising on his hands, which his physician attributed to his use of aspirin – an anti-inflammatory drug commonly taken as a blood thinner – combined with regular handshaking.

Additionally, the president's stamina has been under scrutiny because he sometimes closes his eyes for stretches while others are speaking at public events.

"Donald Trump's inability to stay awake on the job shows that there's something very wrong with his health and cognitive abilities," Rep. Ted Lieu, D-California, said June 3 during a congressional hearing at which he questioned Secretary of State Marco Rubio about the December Cabinet meeting.

"I've never seen him fall asleep," Rubio said. "On the contrary, the guy doesn't sleep."

Trump is close to being clinically obese, based on the body measurements from his most recent physical. The president has expressed disdain for exercise other than golf, calling it "boring," and joking that he works out "about one minute a day, max. If I'm lucky." Meanwhile, he eats "really bad food," according to Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who pointed to the president's consumption of McDonald's, candy and Diet Coke.

"He has the constitution of a deity. I don't know how he's alive, but he is," Kennedy said in a podcast interview.

Trump's doctor recommended exercise and weight loss. Overall, though, the president's "cognitive and physical performance are excellent," and "he is fully fit to carry out all duties of the Commander-in-Chief and Head of State," Capt. Sean Barbabella, the White House physician, wrote in summarizing the results of last month's physical.

Trump has undergone four medical checkups in 13 months, prompting questions about the frequency of his visits, the types of tests being performed and what doctors are looking for.

"There's a reason he keeps going to the hospital and they keep giving him cognitive tests," Lieu said at the June 3 hearing.

Mehmet Oz, a doctor who oversees the Medicare and Medicaid programs, told reporters on June 2 that Trump keeps getting checkups because "he likes the results."

"I do actually believe that he's curious to make sure everything is going in the right direction," Oz said. "He's a very meticulous person."

Holding up a copy of the doctor's report summarizing Trump's recent medical exam, Oz called the results "spectacular."

"That amount of energy, that amount of mental acuity does not exist in a vacuum," Oz added. "You have to have a vessel to carry it, and the president has the unique ability to just keep going at all hours of the day with remarkable strength."

Is Trump more erratic?

One of the biggest concerns as people age is the potential for their decision-making ability to decline, said Austad, the aging expert.

"The conventional wisdom ... is that aging brings wisdom, but after a certain point that's no longer true," he said. "That's why con men go after older people."

A Reuters/Ipsos survey found that 61% of Americans believe the president has "become erratic with age," and only 45% believe he is "mentally sharp and able to deal with challenges."

Some of Trump's recent statements have caused bipartisan alarm, most notably when he threatened to destroy Iran's entire "civilization" while pressuring the regime in Tehran to submit to his demands.

"A whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again," the president posted on social media in April, shortly before announcing a ceasefire.

Democrats subsequently introduced legislation to create a commission that would assess Trump's fitness for office and recommend whether to invoke the 25th Amendment to the Constitution. Some MAGA media figures have also suggested utilizing the 25th Amendment, which establishes a process for removing a president from office.

"We are at a dangerous precipice, and it is now a matter of national security for Congress . . . to protect the American people from an increasingly volatile and unstable situation," Rep. Jamie Raskin, D-Maryland, said in a statement on the bill.

In addition to Trump's Iran comments, Raskin cited the president's feud with the pope and the fact that he posted a Christ-like image of himself online. Trump's late-night social media posting sprees have attracted attention for including AI-generated images ranging from the bizarre to the highly controversial.

The Christ-like image and a video Trump posted depicting Barack and Michelle Obama as apes were both deleted after backlash. The posts have raised questions about Trump's judgment, but his round-the-clock social media use also is cited as a sign of tirelessness.

A post on President Donald Trump's Truth Social account depicts an AI-generated image of himself apparently as Jesus posted on April 12, 2026.
Partisan views on health

Republican pollster Whit Ayers said polling results on Trump's health and mental fitness are colored by people's partisan views of the president.

While the Reuters/Ipsos survey found that 89% of Democrats believe Trump has become erratic with age, only 30% of Republicans say the same.

"The answer to that question is much more a reflection of what people think about Donald Trump than what they think about age," Ayers said.

Reports from Trump's doctors about his health may not sway many people. Austad, the aging expert, suspects that "nobody believes" them, saying presidential administrations have long shielded negative health information from the public.

People can draw their own conclusions, though.

"We get to see him a lot, we get to hear him a lot and my thought is people can sort of judge for themselves," Austad said.

Whatever people think about Trump's health and fitness, Austad said that having a president in his 80s brings risks. While 80-year-olds can be high-functioning, they are more likely to go downhill quickly, potentially leading to impaired judgment, he said.

After having two successive presidents in their 80s, the country might be ripe for a "national conversation" on presidential age limits when Trump leaves office, Austad said.

"I'm very much against ageism, but there's also realism," he said. "Whatever you think about Trump's performance in office to date, it could be vastly different a month from now."

Trump in Sync with Putain* on Ukraine, to the Detriment of US Interests

The American Jackass-in-Chief's policies on supporting Ukraine continue to disadvantage the latter to the benefit of his beloved Russian dictator Vladimir Putain, just as a deal over weapons with Ukraine stands to benefit the US military with know-how the Ukrainians have acquired in field combat. 

Meanwhile, Ukraine President Zelensky, offered to meet one on one with Putain, an offer turned down by the war criminal lording it over "Moscow and All the Russias"'s vodka-imbibed bullshit nationalism.

Remember that the US Moron-in-Chief promised, if elected, to solve the Ukraine-Russia conflict in 24 hours thanks to his moronic charm and demented shallow stupidity. He thought he could seduce the Russian tyrant, but alas, Trump continues to accept his "scorned lover" status.

Trump drags feet on drone deal with Ukraine, mystifying experts
Ellen Mitchell
Sun, June 7, 2026 



The Trump administration's hesitancy in signing a major drone deal with Ukraine is slowing the U.S. military down in an area where it's already trying to play catch-up.

Even as Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has urged Washington to make a deal, with talks between the two nations stretching back to at least September, the U.S. has so far refused to embrace Kyiv as a partner in its drone development.

Zelensky posted a lengthy message to social platform X last Sunday calling for a "bilateral drone deal — a big framework document" between the U.S. and Ukraine, which has made astounding strides in drone warfare since Russia attacked the country in 2022.

But even with senior Pentagon officials including Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and Army Secretary Dan Driscoll lauding Kyiv's drone abilities, the Trump administration is still biding its time on taking full advantage of the Ukrainian capabilities, a delay that experts say is potentially kneecapping the U.S. military.

"I don't know what the hangup would be in denying ourselves the ability to take advantage of that. I don't think there's any good reason," Rebeccah Heinrichs, a senior fellow at the Hudson Institute think tank, said of Ukraine's drone capabilities.

"I don't know if there is a hangup, I don't know if there's a different view between people about what the process needs to be, or what needs to come first, but clearly there is a great advantage on the U.S. side to partnering with Ukraine on drones," she told The Hill.

Likewise, Michael O'Hanlon, a senior fellow with Brookings Institution, said he was "mystified" by the lack of a deal given that the U.S. has been trying to learn from Ukraine, including by sending teams to the country to study developments on the ground.

"Perhaps there is a procedural problem holding things up — or perhaps White House politics and directives are doing so, given that President Trump remains unpredictable in his degree of commitment to the Ukraine cause," O'Hanlon said.

One former official who spoke to The Hill on the condition of anonymity had a more blunt assessment, calling the holdup "lethargy" on the part of the Trump administration and "a certain amount of hostility towards Ukraine coming from the very top."

Indeed, Trump and Zelensky maintain a tenuous relationship, with the U.S. president repeatedly voicing his view that the Ukrainian leader is an obstacle to a peace deal between Kyiv and Moscow — even more so than Russian President Vladimir Putin.

Trump has largely stopped U.S. military aid for Ukraine in his second term and often extols Putin as "smart" and a "strong leader," while regularly insulting Ukrainian officials, even berating Zelensky in the Oval Office in February 2025.

The former official said Trump and Zelensky discussed a potential drone deal "in very positive ways" when they met in September on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly in New York City, but there has been little follow-up to the conversation.

"Those talks didn't suggest any substantial energy on the U.S. side," they said.

Zelensky told CBS's "Face the Nation" on Sunday that Kyiv agreed to allow the U.S. to test and train with its drones, but the two sides have not signed "the big document."

"I think this cooperation can be huge — the most powerful of its kind in the world," he wrote on X after the segment aired. "We need to negotiate, not just talk about it. Take the necessary steps and do it as quickly as possible. For this, we need President Trump to say yes."

He added: "American companies have advanced AI technologies we don't have. In turn, we have many things they don't have, due to our extensive experience on the battlefield."

A deal in some form seems to be in the works, with the U.S. seeking access to Ukrainian drone technology and intellectual property rights as part of a proposed defense cooperation agreement, Bloomberg reported May 19.

As part of that deal, currently awaiting approval, the Pentagon reportedly wants to test Ukrainian drones and electronic warfare systems that could eventually be bought by the U.S., and wants to gain access to technologies — and possibly intellectual property rights — to allow Washington to replicate Ukrainian systems at home.

America's ability to compete in the drone race has taken on added urgency with the war against Iran, which has used kamikaze drones to deadly effect against U.S. allies across the Middle East

Even as most were intercepted by Gulf countries and U.S. forces, those that evaded air defenses have caused major infrastructure damage and death. Six American troops were killed in March in Kuwait by an Iranian long-range one-way attack drone known as Shaheds.

"The U.S. is putting its own troops in danger by not working as closely as possible with the Ukrainians on drone development," Phillips O'Brien, a professor of strategic studies at the University of St. Andrews in Scotland, wrote on X. "To stay close to Putin, Trump is showing once again how little he cares about US soldiers."

The Army referred questions from The Hill on any current, smaller deals or the holdup on a larger bilateral agreement with Ukraine to the Pentagon's press office, which declined to comment.

Kyiv in its more than four years of war with Moscow has acquired a drone expertise that has allowed it to strike further and further across Russian borders, destroying Kremlin oil and military facilities, stopping Russia's battlefield gains and even clawing back territory.

Now the world leader in drone warfare, Ukraine has "developed a truly ingenious circuit where the engineers producing the drones are in direct touch with the soldiers, usually for immediate feedback," the former official said.

"Ukrainians have figured out how to produce drones at a high speed, they know how to operate them and be iterative, and so they can learn from how the Russians are defending against them, how they can adapt them, not just in software, but how the operators pilot them," Heinrichs said.

Ukraine out of necessity "has figured out how to create what is something like an industry, a drone industry, and we just haven't fully taken advantage of learning how they've been able to do this, and against a pure adversary," she added.

Heinrichs, who visited Ukraine and saw the country's drone ecosystem firsthand, said their successes have not gone unnoticed by defense officials, one of which told her "just how incredible Ukraine was in drone warfare and drone capabilities, and how this is clearly something that the United States should take advantage of."

Driscoll last month praised Ukraine's integrated drone operating system during testimony before the Senate Armed Services Committee, saying it "fully integrates every single drone, every sensor, and every shooting platform into just one single network. Ours does not."

Following the attack in Kuwait, the United States quickly put out a request for help and Ukraine responded, sending interceptor drones and a team of drone experts to protect U.S. military bases in Jordan, Zelensky told The New York Times in March.

The Iranian-designed attack drones are similar to what Russia has been using in Ukraine for years, allowing Kyiv to show off its expertise.

Zelensky said his government also had received calls from leaders in Bahrain, the United Arab Emirates, Jordan, Kuwait, Qatar and Saudi Arabia looking for aid in countering Iran's drones, with a team of Ukrainian experts sent to the Middle East to help countries figure out how to best protect themselves.

Ukraine, a non-NATO member, has likewise advised or plans to help train European countries in the alliance on drone warfare, including Germany, Sweden, Poland and the United Kingdom.

"We are now at the start," the former official said of the U.S. military's own drone endeavors. "I don't think it's been as well pursued because they haven't paid sufficient attention to the best drone work on the planet."

Summer Season in Full Swing. Americans Celebrate with Folkoric Mass Killings

When you watch a western/cowboy movie, try to keep in mind that the American soul has not changed much for the past 200-300 years. It all started with lawlessness, random acts of violence, and atrocities by barbarian English crooks, followed by other foreign European settlers (mostly illiterate ignorant peasants from the boonies of the old continent) against the indigenous American peoples and nations. The ethnic cleansing continued apace until the remaining indigenous Amerindians were herded into reservations and basically forgotten. All driven by a white colonial sense of supremacy and religious horse manure: People who were persecuted in Europe ended up persecuting the indigenous peoples of the American continent. The victim becomes the criminal. 

An identical story unfolded in Palestine when foreign settlers - also Europeans - descended on Palestine in wave of illegal migrations some 100 years ago. Again driven by self-congratulatory biblical garbage and a deep racist conviction of superiority by those Zionist settlers over the indigenous Palestinians. You see, the Zionists, whether they like it or not, or whether they are aware of it or not, are cultural heirs to the generic racist European colonial mindset of the "white man's bullshit burden" of civilizing - i.e. of erasing the native and replacing it with a copy of the invading culture - the "savages". For the French, English, Dutch, Spanish.... all other peoples around the globe were barbarians in need of civilizing. The Germans (then known as Nazis) embodied that cultural notion but implemented it inside Europe against certain categories of their own citizens and peoples: Jews, Gypsies, Slavs, southern Europeans...

The Zionists have adopted the American and South African settler strategy: Herd the natives inside enclosures like cattle (known as reservations, bantustans, etc.) and steal their land. Sign a treaty today granting fake autonomy to these concentration camps but comprising clauses allowing the rapists to resume their rape at a later time. The White Europeans manufactured those treaties, knowing full well that they will begin violating them in earnest, and perpetrate another round of ethnic cleansing with more displacements and herding of natives into still smaller reservations... In Palestine, it was in 1948, then 1967, then the 1990s Oslo and Madrid treaties, when no sooner had the Zionists signed the papers that they resumed killing Palestinians, uprooting them and stealing their lands and building settlements.

This background aims at constructing in the reader's mind a blueprint for how an average white American thinks, and why there is so much violence in the United States and in Palestine. A colonial settler is someone constantly on the move. His instinctive impulse is to look for more land and more stuff to steal from less sophisticated, more innocent native people. And that blueprint is still in the persona of the white American and white Zionist as we speak. While the indigenous Amerindians have ceased resisting the onslaught because of their numerical and technological disadvantages, the indigenous Palestinians have show tremendous resilience and adaptability, particularly because the invading settlers were, and will always be, demographically at a disadvantage, just like Black South Africans managed to defeat their European rapists because of their sheer numerical advantage.

After all, when the League of Nations in 1919 decided to grant a Mandate to Britain over Palestine, it deemed the Palestinian people sufficiently developed to be independent and not subjected to full-fledged colonization. The purpose of the Mandate was for the British to assist the Palestinians in building their sovereign institutions. While in Palestine, the British crooks sold Palestine to the European Zionists instead of complying with the fiduciary obligation they had, right next door in Lebanon the French did deliver on their Mandate: They helped the Lebanese draft a constitution, create their state institutions in the three branches of government, built an extensive infrastructure (roads, bridges, railroads, water and sanitary systems, etc.) before departing after some 22 years (1921-1943).

So, if you ever wonder why there is so much unwarranted violence in the US, why the white trash government of Donald Dumb can only operate with hatred, vulgarity and animosity, it is because the colonial mindset is still alive in the average American mind: They love guns even as they claim to have evolved from the barbarity of the Frontier and the Wild West. Every day in the US there are untold numbers of crimes and mass killings, for no apparent reason than the simplistic one of "I owe a gun, I might just as well use it", which leaves the moron with the task of finding a good setting and a good pretext.... a school, a church, a fair, a club....

At least 12 people wounded in shooting near festival in Toledo, Ohio

Toledo police give update on shooting near festival that injured at least 12 04:02

At least 12 people were shot Saturday near a neighborhood festival in Toledo, Ohio, authorities said.

The Toledo Police Department reported that the shooting occurred near the Old West End Festival, a little after 5:30 p.m. local time.

In a news briefing Saturday night, Toledo Deputy Police Chief Joe Heffernan told reporters that there were believed to be at least two shooters.

"It appears as though there were at least two shooters, I think they were probably shooting at each other," Heffernan said.

At least 12 people sustained gunshot wounds, two of whom were in critical condition, Heffernan disclosed. The victims ranged in age from 14 to 61.

Heffernan said there were no suspects in custody at this time.

"It's pretty active right now as far as the investigative part of this goes," the deputy chief said.

Authorities said they were still working to determine the circumstances that led up to the shooting and a possible motive.

According to its website, the Old West End Festival is in its 53rd year, and consists of a parade, food markets and live music.

Tito Aguilar told CBS News he was ordering food when he witnessed a group of what he described as juveniles attacking another juvenile. Aguilar said he started recording on his cellphone, and then heard gunshots.

In the cellphone video he provided to CBS News, what sounds like at least 10 gunshots can be heard.

Aguilar said he ran from the area, but eventually returned to locate his own friends and saw several people with apparent injuries from the shooting.

"I am deeply concerned about the situation in Toledo tonight," Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine said in a social media post. "Summer festivals should be safe spaces for families to spend time together without fear of violence. Fran and I are praying for everyone impacted by the incident at the Old West End Festival, and we are confident that law enforcement will locate the suspects involved in this senseless crime."

Finally, a Lebanese President with a Backbone, but Without Weapons

But the Americans refuse to sell weapons to the Lebanese Army (which it could use to defeat Iran's terrorist militia Hezbollah) because, according to Israel, those weapons might be later used against Israel. "Damned if you do and damned if you don't" for the past sixty years.

Trump is putting maximum pressure on the Lebanese to disarm Hezbollah by force (which they can't for lack of weapons) or face Israel's barbarity as it pretends to fight Hezbollah. In fact, Israel loves Hezbollah because it serves it as a pretext for endless colonial expansion and warmongering. 

Imagine what would the value of Israel be if there is genuine peace in the region. Israel thrives on presenting itself to the world as a victim of its own Palestinian victims, and thus uses this "victim" status to keep extorting a credulous West for its guilt in perpetrating the Holocaust and making it unnaturally support Israel's genocide of the Palestinians and its theft of Syrian and Lebanese lands.

Exclusive: Lebanese president accuses Iran of using his country as a bargaining chip in peace talks with the US
Mostafa Salem, CNN
Sat, June 6, 2026


CNN - Christiane Amanpour interviewing Lebanese President Joseph Aoun

Lebanese President Joseph Aoun delivered a searing rebuke to Iran on Friday, accusing it of using his country as a bargaining chip against the wishes of the Lebanese people in the conflict with the United States and Israel.

In a rare and exclusive interview with CNN's Christiane Amanpour, President Aoun declared that he is committed to doing "whatever it takes" to save his country from conflict, and that the Lebanese people are "fed up" with war between Israel and Hezbollah, a heavily armed Iranian-backed proxy that has built strong domestic support by portraying itself as the defender of southern Lebanon and the Palestinian people.

"We are fed up and we want to live in peace," Aoun said, adding "(Lebanese people) deserve to live in peace and in dignity, they deserve not seeing their homes being destroyed every five to 10 years."

Since its founding in the 1980s, Hezbollah has gone to war with Israel multiple times. This year, the group fired rockets at Israel in retaliation for a joint US-Israeli assault on Iran that killed Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and much of his senior military command. Israel's aggressive response has killed more than 3,500 Lebanese and displaced nearly a fifth of the population.

Weakened by decades of foreign meddling, sectarian strife and its repeated entanglement in wider wars, the Lebanese state had pledged to tackle the daunting task of disarming Hezbollah in an effort to dismantle the group's immense influence and halt Israel's advancement.

Despite a ceasefire between Tehran and Washington in April and subsequent negotiations, Beirut has found itself increasingly embroiled in the wider conflict after Iran conditioned an agreement to end the war with the US on Israel's withdrawal from Lebanon.

"It's not your country, it's our country," Aoun said addressing Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) – the main backers of Hezbollah. "(Iran is) using Lebanon as a bargaining chip in their negotiation with US."

Addressing Iran, he said, "You are not trying to help us … the people of Lebanon are paying the price … for the sake of your own interest," adding, "our interests … do not coincide with your interests."

Following the interview, Iran's top diplomat pushed back on the remarks Aoun made regarding Tehran using Lebanon as a bargaining chip. Responding to the clip of the CNN interview, Iran's Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said: "Had Lebanon been a bargaining chip for Iran, we'd have a deal long ago."

"Save Lebanon from your real foe, Mr. President," Araghchi added, in an apparent reference to Israel.

'We are ready, we are willing'

Facing limited options and mounting desperation to weaken Iran's influence in Lebanon, the US-backed President Aoun has instructed his government to negotiate direct ceasefire agreements with its longtime adversary, Israel – an unprecedented move by a Lebanese government that appears to be designed to pile further pressure onto Hezbollah.

"We are ready, we are willing, we are committed (to negotiations to end the war)," Aoun told Amanpour at the presidential palace in Beirut. "If you are not, you will never live in peace, safety and security," he said addressing the Israeli people and government.

He added that Lebanon and Israel have a "great opportunity" to end the state of hostility and for both the Lebanese and Israeli people to live in safety and security.

"They are both fed up with war since 1948," he added. "This is a huge opportunity. They both have to choose: war or… diplomacy."

But the truces between Lebanon and Israel have barely taken hold as Hezbollah continues rejecting any disarmament without Israeli withdrawal from Lebanese territory.

In a statement on Thursday, Hezbollah's leader Naim Qassem slammed the Lebanon-Israel talks as a "surrender," saying the resulting truce was rejected in its "entirety by broad segments of the Lebanese people."

Aoun said he spoke to Lebanese people across different religious sects, including Shiites, who have told him they are "fed up" with Hezbollah's war with Israel.

"They are Lebanese people. They are not Naim Qassem's people," he said in a rare public criticism of the Iran-backed Shiite militant leader.

Still, the Lebanese president slammed the Israeli military strategy in dismantling Hezbollah, saying the group can only be "dealt with" by the Lebanese government after the Israeli military withdraws – and the conflict can only end through negotiations.

"They can invade the whole country, they can flatten the whole country, but they will never be able to achieve their objective," Aoun said on Israel. "Hezbollah is not an objective you can see… it's an idea."

Before becoming president, Aoun served eight years as army chief. He was wounded in battle and says he still carries shrapnel in his body, with his hearing damaged from close-quarters combat. Yet he says he hates war.

"I prefer negotiations over wars. I don't want my children … and I don't want the people in Lebanon to live the same hardship," he said. "The best way forward is diplomacy."

For almost three years, Israel and Hezbollah have been engaged in aggressive skirmishes. Israeli forces have occupied dozens of villages in southern Lebanon to clear Hezbollah's forces.

The Israeli government has conditioned their withdrawal from Lebanon on Hezbollah laying down its weapons – a step that the Lebanese government led by Aoun said it is committed to.

Yet, outside of vocal critique and a few symbolic steps of dismantling Hezbollah's capabilities, the former military commander has not taken concrete steps to disarm Hezbollah in fear of sparking what many observers believe is a direct clash with the heavily armed group, which could spark a repeat of a brutal 15-year civil war that tore the country apart.

Instead, Aoun has watched his presidential palace tremble under Israeli strikes as Israel widens its campaign in Lebanon. At the same time, Iran continues raising the price of any ceasefire with the US while refusing to release its grip on Lebanese sovereignty.

"I will try… to negotiate and reason with them," Aoun said in reference to Hezbollah and disarmament. "Eventually they will be persuaded, but the cost will be high."

Daily Good Deeds of the Most Moral Army in the World

The idea is perhaps is to cull the Palestinian population and have less "indigenous savages" to ethnic cleanse when the time comes for the Messiah to finally show up and end 5,000 years of barbarity in his name.

It's just standard procedure on the part of foreign settlers who are simply obeying Yahweh's biblical commandments to kill every man, woman, child and animal. No big deal. It's all in the garbage torah-old testament. The most moral army in the world cannot be challenged on following standard barbarian procedures. 

The British crooks who started this entire charade of the colonial "return to the promised land" are "shocked and saddened" by the incident.

Israeli soldiers shot and killed a 7-month-old Palestinian baby boy in the occupied West Bank on Friday and wounded his parents, according to the Palestinian Ministry of Health.

Sam Fahd Abu Haykal was in a car with his parents when an Israeli soldier opened fire at the vehicle near the city of Hebron, the ministry said. The gunfire killed Haykal and injured both of his parents.

The boy's grandmother, Firyal Abu Haykal, told Reuters that one bullet struck their car, killing the baby. "The incident is unbelievable and unacceptable," she told Reuters. "We are being harmed just because we decided to stay at our homes."

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said in a statement that soldiers "perceived" a vehicle accelerating toward them. A soldier fired a single shot at the vehicle, the IDF said, acknowledging that those injured were "uninvolved civilians."

The IDF said the incident is under review.

Such incidents have occurred before. In March, four members of the same Palestinian family, including two boys aged 5 and 7, who were out on a late-night drive after breaking the daily Ramadan fast, were shot dead by Israeli soldiers in the West Bank, Palestinian officials reported.

This is a developing story and will be updated.

Israeli forces kill Palestinian baby in the West Bank: Health ministry

Sat, June 6, 2026

How archaeology turns political in the West Bank 11:37

Israeli troops killed a seven-month-old Palestinian baby boy after firing at his parents' vehicle in the occupied West Bank, the Palestinian health ministry said.

Sam Fahd Abu Haikal was killed Friday evening, and his parents were wounded while driving in the Tel Rumeida area south of Hebron City, according to the ministry.

The official Palestinian news agency WAFA said the baby was critically wounded after being struck in the face by the same bullet that injured his mother. He later died of his injuries. His father, Fahd Abu Haikal, a lecturer at Bethlehem University, was shot in the hand. They were traveling from Bethlehem to visit family in Hebron when soldiers opened fire, the agency reported.

Photos from the Associated Press show that the baby's carseat was behind the driver's seat of the vehicle. Photos also show damage, including at least one bullet hole, in the car's windshield.

Israel's military has scaled up military operations in the West Bank since the Oct. 7, 2023 Hamas attack that killed some 1,200 people and took 251 people hostage, which triggered the war in Gaza. Israel's retaliatory military campaign has so far killed more than 72,900 Palestinians, according to Gaza's Health Ministry. The ministry, which is part of the Hamas-led government, is generally seen as reliable by United Nations agencies and independent experts.

A spokesperson for the Israel Defense Forces told CBS News that soldiers "perceived a vehicle accelerating toward them" in the Hebron area. A soldier responded by firing single shots, the spokesperson said. The statement said three Palestinians were injured and evacuated for medical treatment, but did not confirm the age or gender of any of the injured.

An initial inquiry "found that those injured were uninvolved civilians," the IDF spokesperson said, adding that the incident is under review and that the IDF "expresses deep sorrow for any harm caused to uninvolved individuals."

At Al-Ahly Hospital in Hebron, the baby's father told Associated Press reporters that a bullet struck the car's windshield before piercing his hand, then his son and wife.

"It entered the child's face on the right side and exited on the left, then passed directly into his mother's face and exited on the other side, with shrapnel lodged near her heart," Abu Haikal said.

The mother is in critical condition because there's shrapnel close to her heart, he said. They haven't told her yet that her son, who turned seven months old on Friday, was killed.

The baby's grandmother, Feryal Abu Heikal, was in the car during the shooting and said they were driving near a checkpoint and stopped when they saw Israeli military vehicles and soldiers in the distance. As the forces fired at them, she initially thought it was warning shots before they were struck, she said.

"The scene was horrific to see a seven-month-old baby with a smashed face," she said. "What kind of army in the world does this? ... What happened to my grandson can't be easily forgotten."

The baby's funeral is expected later Saturday.

The British consulate in Jerusalem said it was "shocked and saddened" by the incident, saying on social media that it was calling for an "immediate and transparent investigation and accountability" and that "civilians must be protected."

The United Nations said last month that more than 1,000 Palestinians have been killed in the West Bank and east Jerusalem since the war began. At least 240 of them children, according to the U.N. Forty-nine people have been killed since the start of 2026, it said.

In March, Israeli soldiers fired on a car carrying a family in the northern West Bank, killing four people, including two children, the Palestinian Authority's Health Ministry said at the time.

Israeli soldiers accused of harming Palestinians are rarely penalized and were indicted in fewer than 1% of cases based on 2,427 complaints alleging wrongdoing between 2016 and 2024, according to Israeli rights group Yesh Din.

More than 700,000 Israelis live in the occupied West Bank and east Jerusalem, territories captured by Israel in 1967 from Jordan and sought by the Palestinians for a future state.

Now That Greater Lebanon's "Coexistence, Consensual Democracy, etc." Experiment Has Failed....

Edmond Nicolas
June 4, 2026
From: https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1CehjWXqm9/

If we think objectively—and acknowledge that the "Greater Lebanon" experiment, led by the Maronites, was a failed endeavor that proved incapable of securing the necessary peace between Muslims and Christians over the course of a century—then the optimal solution lies in a peaceful separation between Lebanon’s Christians and its Muslims. We ought to view the cause of this "divorce" between Lebanon’s religious communities as akin to the situation of a couple who have been bound to one another for a hundred years, yet have remained in perpetual conflict—literally over everything—since the very first day of their marriage. Furthermore—and above all else—they have no children, nor is there any compelling reason for them to preserve the unity of this "family."

This is our reality—as viewed with absolute objectivity and complete impartiality!

What, then, is wrong with them separating amicably, thereby allowing each party to live in peace within its own home?

I swear by God: there is no fault or shame in separation. In fact—and in accordance with the teachings of Christ—if we examine this matter of "divorce" from the perspective of religious differences, we find that it poses absolutely no threat to non-Christians. This is because Christian religious culture does not instill fear in the hearts of adherents of other faiths; the reason being that Christ’s own commandment to our Phoenician people—specifically in the cities of Tyre and Sidon—was crystal clear: it not only calls for unconditional love among all human beings, but also obliges Christians to pray even for their very enemies. This commandment rests upon theological pillars and principles that mandate the propagation of peace—thereby imposing upon the Christian, with even greater urgency, the duty *not* to create enemies for himself in the first place; lest he find himself compelled to pray for those who seek to kill him—simply for being a Christian.

Indeed, the conspiracy against the continued existence of my Phoenician-humanist identity in Lebanon shall not be repeated—nor shall I, as a Christian, stand idly by, contenting myself with prayer alone! Consequently, a separation grounded in love would serve to entrench peace rather than to create enemies—unless, of course, there exists a specific religious mindset that continues to harbor ill intentions toward the "Other," regardless of whether such a separation takes place or not. 

Let us now return to the heart of the matter: examining the path leading to a peaceful separation between Christians and Muslims in Lebanon. Quite frankly—and speaking as a Phoenician who once fought against Muslims in defense of Tripoli—I will not stand as an obstacle in the path of a million individuals from the Sunni community who choose to place themselves under the mantle of Syria's "Ahmad al-Sharaa, ak.a. al-Joulani." If this is truly what the people of Tripoli desire, then let the separation be amicable; the Christians would have absolutely no objection to it. What I mean is this: were you to ask me whether I—as a Phoenician—would consent to ceding "Phoenician Tripoli" to Syria, my answer would be "Yes." However, my acceptance is conditional upon Syria, in return, ceding those Christian-majority regions in the north known as "Wadi al-Nasara" ((The Valley of the Christians). As for the East, I advocate for expanding Lebanon’s borders to encompass Saydnaya and the adjacent Christian territories.

If such an amicable separation were to foster peace between Muslims and Christians, what possible objection could be raised against this concept? What, specifically, is wrong with the idea of ​​establishing a Christian state within Lebanon—modeled after the Jewish state currently existing in Israel, and just as we are surrounded by numerous Muslim states throughout the region? And what, then, is wrong with extending a hand of peace to our Jewish neighbors—precisely as we ask them to extend a hand of peace to us?

And what is wrong with extending a hand of peace to our Muslim neighbors—precisely as we ask them to extend a hand of peace to us?

Perhaps the time has come to abandon religious instincts as a basis for human interaction, and to allow reason to govern our human affairs!

The contradictory statements issued by Christian and Muslim religious leaders, following last week's "Spiritual Summit" between the heads of all the religious communities, confirm that the Lebanese people are left with no choice but to call for another gathering—one dedicated to discussing the optimal path toward an amicable separation. Or perhaps we should all simply go to sleep with our fingers on the triggers, poised for another round of violence—only to survive long enough to face yet another round of fighting.

China Asskisser Trump Afraid of Calling Taiwan President

Trump loves to hate our allies and is smitten with our adversaries and enemies. He bends over backwards to please and kiss ass to dictators like Putin, Xi JinPing, the Saudi Wahhabi Islamist rulers and others, while constantly berating our European and other traditional allies like Taiwan.

Xi has threatened Trump not to talk to the Taiwanese. So Trump starts putting down the Taiwanese to please the Communist dictator of China and declares that Taiwan has "stolen" chip making technology, implying that Taiwan is at fault for developing the best ever chipmaking technology. He now needs Communist China's approval before he can speak to the Taiwanese president. 

If you ever need to find a backstabbing coward weasel, go to the White Outhouse in DC.

Trump doesn't like honest people. He has pardoned thousands of criminals and gangsters, including the latest one, a former congressman who was caught in illegal insider stock trading. He himself has been milking the Iran War by manipulating the market: Make a declaration suggesting war, stocks drop, he and his family buy cheap... then a few days later, make a declaration suggesting peace, stocks rise, he and his family sell for a profit.


As a criminal convicted felon whose entire life has been built on backroom, Mafia-like deals and cheating every which way, he feels the pain of all these criminals like him. So he pardons them.

Trump keeps the door open to a call with Taiwan's president even though China has warned against it

ABOARD AIR FORCE ONE (AP) — President Donald Trump on Friday indicated that he may still speak with Taiwan's President Lai Ching-te — even after China has publicly urged him not to directly engage with the leader of the self-ruled island that Beijing claims as its own.

Trump first raised the idea last month on his way back from meeting President Xi Jinping in Beijing, saying that he intended to speak directly with Lai as he weighs whether to go ahead with a $14 billion arms sale for Taipei that Congress approved earlier this year.

The U.S. president on Friday suggested that a call with the Taiwanese leader is still in play. "I'll always talk to him," Trump told reporters when asked if he still intended on calling Lai.

Such a call would mark the first direct dialogue between sitting American and Taiwanese presidents in many decades, and Beijing has discouraged Trump against such an engagement.

The Chinese embassy in Washington in a statement to the Associated Press this week said that kind of phone call could undermine progress in the delicate U.S.-China relationship and urged the Republican administration to "handle the Taiwan question with utmost prudence" and "avoid sending wrong signals" to officials in the democratically run island that China views as a breakaway province.
It would be an unprecedented phone call

Trump raised China's ire when he took a congratulatory call from Taiwan's then-President Tsai Ing-wen after winning the 2016 presidential election but before taking office.

Trump has raised the idea of a direct engagement with Lai even as he's been more circumspect about whether he'll move forward with a major arms package for Taiwan after hearing concerns about it from Xi in Beijing. Congress greenlit the arms deal in January but it still needs Trump's approval,

The president said last month he sees arms sales with Taiwan as a "negotiating chip" in the administration's approach to Pacific policy.

At last month's Beijing summit, Xi warned Trump that the "Taiwan question" is the most important issue in ties between China and the U.S., and that the two nations will "have clashes and even conflicts" without proper handling of the matter, according to Chinese officials.

Trump had an unusual consultation on Taiwan during his Beijing visit

Trump's discussion with Xi about the arms sales to Taiwan seemed out of step with the U.S. policy principles known as the Six Assurances. The nonbinding principles, formulated in 1982 under President Ronald Reagan, have helped guide the U.S. relationship with Taipei, according to analysts.

The second of the Six Assurances states that the U.S. "did not agree to consult with the People's Republic of China on arms sales to Taiwan."

Secretary of State Marco Rubio during a series of congressional hearings earlier this week said that the United States' Taiwan policy has not changed.

But Trump's rhetoric has added a more foggy dynamic to the U.S.-Taiwan relationship, said Craig Singleton, a China expert at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies.

"Trump's comments about Taiwan arms sales as a negotiating chip, combined with uncertainty around a possible Lai call, have created more ambiguity than Taipei would like," Singleton said. "The real test is not the rhetoric. It is whether the pending arms package moves, and on what timeline."

Taiwan's president is ready for a Trump call

If the call were to happen, Lai has said he would emphasize to Trump that peace and stability in the Taiwan Strait are crucial for global security, and make the case that China was acting as the "destroyer" of the strait's peace.

Lai said he also would tell Trump that Taiwan's increasing defense budget was a response to threats, and purchases of U.S. arms would be an essential means to safeguard the strait's stability.

In 1979, Washington ended diplomatic ties with Taiwan as part of recognizing the People's Republic of China, and the Chinese have reacted strongly after other engagements by senior U.S. leaders with Taiwan's leadership.

After an August 2022 visit to Taipei by then House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and five other Democratic lawmakers, China responded with large-scale military exercises that included launching short-range ballistic missiles over the island.

Trump repeats plans to call Lai despite Beijing pressure

The United States, under the "One China" policy, recognizes the Chinese position that Taiwan is part of China, while still allowing for informal U.S. relations with the self-governing island.

At the same time, the U.S. has long agreed to ensure Taipei has the resources to defend itself though Washington has remained ambiguous about how far it will go militarily to counter Beijing should it decide to take Taiwan by force.

After Trump's Friday comments, the Taipei Economic and Cultural Representative Office in Washington reiterated its position that it intends to "maintain close contact" with the U.S. on arms sales and other issues.

"We will leave it up to the U.S. to announce if there's any arrangements for President Trump to speak with President Lai," the office said in a statement.

China would view a phone call between Trump and Lai as more provocative than moving forward with the proposed arms sale to Taiwan, said Edgard Kagan, a former U.S. ambassador to Malaysia and senior State Department official handling East Asia policy issues under Trump and President Joe Biden.

Kagan added that it was notable that Trump continues to publicly state that such a call is a possibility after China had warned the U.S. administration against a Trump-Lai engagement.

If Trump bypasses a phone call with Lai, he may create the space to move forward with a new arms sales for Taipei while dulling the blowback from Beijing, said Kagan, who is now the China Studies chair at the Center for Strategic and International Studies in Washington.

"This could give him the room to announce an arms sale, defuse the criticism that the U.S. is turning its back on Taiwan, and do it in a way that leaves the Chinese feeling there was some respect for their views," Kagan added.

Hezbollah's 2006 Promise to Lebanese: No More Home Demolitions, Displacement, Dead Children

Poster in Beirut's Southern suburb (Dahiyeh) around the time of the July 2006 war between Israel and Hezbollah. In it, Hezbollah's gonadal hero, feu Hassan Nasrallah, asserts to "his" people:

Our homes shall no longer be destroyed

Our children shall no longer be killed

Our people shall no longer be displaced

That era is over

Unfortunately today in 2026, twenty years later, "his" people are still in that era:

Lebanese people's homes are being razed to the ground

Lebanese people's children are being killed

Lebanese people are being displaced, this time perhaps to no return.

Granted that it is the Zionist barbarians doing all this destruction, killing and displacement. But Hezbollah is guilty of drawing the Israelis into an endless 50-year cycle of violence.

Instead of "liberating" the south from a non-existent Israeli occupation (a pretext for warmongering on behalf of Iran), Nasrallah has liberated the entire south of the country - south of the Litani-Zahrani rivers - from "his" people by giving the Zionist barbarians all the pretexts they needed to rape south Lebanon. Many Lebanese believe that Hassan Nasrallah is a double agent for the Mossad. 

"His" people are now, probably permanently, displaced and squatting by roadsides, in gutters, and other people's property. He and "his" Shiite people are masochists, and are more comfortable as victims. 

Some idiots, particularly the religious ones, never learn from their own history. When you use your gonads and your religious bullshit as your motivator for action, instead of your brains, you are condemned to repeating the same mistakes.

What follows is an overview of the background to the millionth wars that have been fought in this tormented Levant. It might help you understand the present war between the Great American Moron Donald Dumb, the savage Zionists, and the Ayatollahs of Iran. (Note: I reject the western colonial nomenclature of Near East, Middle East and Far East: They are all from the standpoint of western crooks and criminals lusting over other peoples and their lands. I wish we could start using the terms of Near West (Russia and Eastern Europe), Middle West (Central and western Europe), and Far West (Britain and the Americas).

The Zionist fundamentalists are the same as their Shiite enemies. They both dig into their Bronze Age fallacies and share an uncanny similarity in that they love to be victims. They thrive on their own made-up victimhood. Both continuously wallow in the false pretense of being eternal victims of others, bordering on paranoia.

From biblical times, Zionists claimed to be victims of the Amalekites, the Philistines, the Phoenicians, the Assyrians, the Babylonians, the Canaanites, the Sea Peoples, the Romans and the Greeks, and in more contemporary times, the Europeans and the Arabs (who are their closest Semitic brethren) when they are the ones who committed genocide to steal the Promised Land, and are still committing genocide to re-seize said Promised Land which they had lost in succession to the Assyrians, Babylonians, Persians, Greeks, Romans, Christians, Arabs, Crusaders, Mamelukes, Ottomans, and finally the English crooks. Having converted to Christians (circa 300 AD) when the Roman empire became Christian, then to Muslims (when the Arabs invaded in the 600s), the Hebrews of biblical vintage became the Palestinians of today. Those Zionists claiming descent from the Semitic biblical Hebrews are European Indo-European con men who converted to Judaism in the relatively recent past and have no genetic or cultural connection with the biblical genociders other than sharing their religion. Which means that the Palestinians are the real authentic Jews who are being mass murdered by European fake Zionist Jews.

Zionist propaganda is art that may have been inspired by the German Nazi filmmaker Leni Riefenstahl. It has artificially elevated the status of Zionists as eternal victims of antisemitism simply to inflict guilt on the world and extort it for ownership of Palestine. Because of that ball-and-chain of antisemitism that they drag behind them, no one is allowed to have an opinion on them. Non-Zionists have no right to criticize Zionists. From their Nazi brethren in Germany, the Zionists learned their trade of racism, hatred, supremacy and warmongering, and consider themselves an infallible people endowed by supreme wisdom. 

This bizarre endowment they explain by claiming that their Bronze Age god Yahweh had run an experiment as they wandered the desert: Apparently Yahweh sampled specimens of all stinking Arabian desert-dwelling goat-herding nomads of the Stone and Bronze ages within a tiny geographic expanse of the Arabian desert between Mecca and Jerusalem. He ignored billions of other peoples in Asia, Europe, Africa, America, Australia, and focused his laser on Semitic nomads who probably bathed once a year, if at all, pitching tents and milking goats and camels in that narrow band of land. He undertook a thorough, detailed, exhaustive, in-depth analysis and comprehensive comparative study, and published his sublime results in a garbage publication known as the Torah-Old Testament without any peer-review by outside observers. 

Yahweh's conclusions? One Arabian desert tribe stood out, and he tried to make a deal with it: worship me exclusively and I'll increase your libidinal urges and your procreative abilities. But this tribe kept haggling and challenging their own god to milk him out of more favors, which he finally relented and gave them another people's land, that of the Palestinian Canaanites. That MVP tribe is the Hebraic-Jewish-Zionist tribe born of the womb of 100-year-old Sarah who miraculously got impregnated by Yahweh's aging and decaying buddy Abraham. Yahweh favored their newborn Isaac over his bastard Arab half-brother Ismael who was born from the adulterous fornications Abraham had with his Arab maid. Not a bad way to start a self-congratulatory religion based on reducing your other semitic brethren to the level of bastard children of the maid.

Yahweh was smitten with the Hebrew-Jewish-Zionist tribesmen, it seems, for reasons no one has been able to elucidate. Yahweh, presumably the equal of all other human-fabricated gods, like the English-American God, French Dieu, Arabic Allah, German Gott, Chinese Shàngdì, Japanese Kami, Korean Hananim, and many many others, callously preferred the Hebrew-Jewish-Zionist nomads to all other primitive goat-herding nomads, hunters and gatherers.

Similarly, Shiite Muslims, in addition to claiming like all other Muslims that theirs is the final sequel in the streaming desert-born monotheistic scourge to inflict humanity, claim to be victims of other Muslims and of everyone else. In Lebanon, even though they have become the wealthiest among the other Lebanese communities (with thriving Shiite colonies in Africa and South America), they continue to nag about being "disenfranchised" (محرومين) while warmongering and wreaking havoc in the country.

Shiite Muslims separated from mainstream Sunni Muslims for a number of reasons, none of them having to do with religious ideology.

1- The first leader of the Shiite Muslims was Ali Ibn Abi-Taleb, the cousin and and son-in-law of the prophet Muhammad. After the death of the latter, there was a bitter dispute over his succession. Those who sided with Ali to succeed Muhammad became the Shiites (Shiite in Arabic means "partisan", and their original name of Ali's Shiites, or Ali's partisans, was abridged to Shiite). Since the 600s, the Shiites continue to have a bone to grind with the other Muslims (Sunnis) on this account.

2- Moreover, the civil war that erupted out of that succession dispute between the mainstream Sunni Muslim Caliphs (Caliph means "successor") and the Shiites led to the killing in battles of Ali's two sons, Hassan and Hussein. To this day, Shiites mourn the death of Hassan and Hussein. 

3- During the Arab-Muslim empire (632 -1258 AD), the Persians (modern day Iranians) and the Arabs exchanged an ethnic and racial hatred to one another. Persians are Indo-Europeans, while Arabs are Semites. Since the Persians could not pronounce the holy language of Arabic properly, Arabs mocked them as "Ajam" (عجم) whom they deemed as inferior to the Arabs. Just like the Greco-Romans who deemed the Germanic tribes they could not subdue as "barbarians", an onomatopoeic qualifier of someone's language sounding like gibberish, or "ber ber ber". Hence, the Shiite rebellion for the most part found itself a safe haven in Persia (today's Iran) while the Sunni establishment settled in the Arabian peninsula and across the vast empire between conquered Spain and southeast Asia. The Shiites to this day continue to claim they are the true successors of Muhammad and want to control the capital of the Muslim world, the city of Mecca in Saudi Arabia, and the two sides have been hating one another over this 1,300-year-old grudge. Imagine that former archenemies of WWII, the Japanese and the Americans, have become best friends today after a decade of warring, while Shiites and Sunnis cannot turn the page after 1,300 years of fighting.

4- Finally, when they were forcibly converted to Islam by the Arabs, the Persians integrated into Islam their older pre-Islamic beliefs and traditions that are considered heretical by the Sunni Arabs. Messianism is one of them. Shiites believe that the Mahdi (the equivalent of the Messiah) will one day return to earth and judge everyone. Somewhat like the Christian Jesus returning, or the Jewish Messiah who has yet to make his first appearance despite 5,000 years of mayhem, torment and suffering his people have caused the world while waiting for him. Shiites also have a lesser problem than the Sunnis with portrayal of divinity in art (paintings, statues, etc.).

In conclusion, what promises and pledges Hassan Nasrallah made to the Lebanese people in 2006 have turned out to be as hollow as all the monotheistic cults that are behind much of these barbaric wars. Unfortunately, our hopes for peace in the Levant rest on the shoulders of a sick, demented, senile ignoramus by the name of Donald Dumb. Frodo the Hobbit had a better chance against Sauron than Donald Dumb has against the Semites of the Levant.

White Racism in America: Minnesota GOP-MAGA Reps Pray for Killer Cop Derek Chauvin

Racism in America knows no legal or moral bounds. It's been encouraged and enabled by white trash president Donald Dumb whose Republican goons in Minnesota held a prayer for the cop (Derek Chauvin) who murdered George Floyd on the street by stepping on his neck for 9 long minutes, long enough to suffocate him as he cried "I can't breathe".

Minnesotans whose loved ones were killed by police condemn state GOP for praying for Derek Chauvin

Minnesota residents with loved ones who died at the hands of police spoke out Thursday about the state Republican Party holding a public prayer for Derek Chauvin, the former police officer in prison for murdering George Floyd.

"You all had the opportunity to honor fallen soldiers or children who lost their lives," said Courteney Ross, Floyd's girlfriend and who was visibly emotional through "tears of outrage." "Instead, you took precious time to purposefully hurt everyone who loved Floyd. And every other family who has lost a loved one to the police. "

Valerie Castile, the mother of Philando Castile, a 32-year-old school cafeteria worker who was shot and killed by a Minnesota police officer in 2016, echoed what Ross said, calling the act "the most hurtful thing you can do."

"You give a moment of silence to a murderer? Come on," Castile said.

The two women were among those who spoke at a news conference organized by Twin Cities Coalition For Justice.

What happened in Minnesota over the weekend

The Minnesota Republican Party nominating convention held a moment of silence last weekend for Chauvin.

When the action became public knowledge, it triggered intense backlash.

Racial justice groups, civil rights advocates and Democratic public officials swiftly condemned party officials, accusing them of blindly supporting law enforcement and disrespecting Floyd and his family.

Chauvin has been in federal prison since 2021, after he was convicted of murdering Floyd six years ago. Cellphone video of Chauvin putting his knee on Floyd's neck for over 9 minutes despite Floyd's pleas of "I can't breathe" sparked the numerous racial reckoning protests that dominated the latter half of 2020.

On the one-year anniversary of Floyd's death, people knelt in a moment of silence at the site, symbolizing the 9 minutes and 29 seconds Floyd was pinned down.

A delegate at the Minnesota GOP gathering in Duluth on Saturday proposed acknowledging Chauvin, according to reports from local news outlets. It occurred days after the sixth anniversary of Floyd's death.

"The moment of silent prayer was a spontaneous motion brought forward from the convention floor. It was not part of the official convention program, it was not proposed by Convention Chairman Danny Nadeau, and it was not a statement from party leadership," the Minnesota Republican Party said in a statement.

A spokesperson for the Minnesota GOP did not immediately return an email Thursday seeking additional comment.

The impact of honoring the police officer who killed — and not the person he killed

Castile said it didn't matter if only one person participated, it was still hurtful.

"I am proud of the ones who did not do the moment of silence," she said. "Those that did, they should be reprimanded in some fashion."

Ross urged those Republicans who did not take part to hold their peers accountable.

"I'm speaking to the few of you that thought it was wrong. Please stand up," Ross said. "You are public servants."

Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison, who led the state's prosecution of Chauvin, said in a statement this week he was "heartbroken and frankly shocked" by the prayer.

"This decision dishonors the memory of George Floyd and wounds his loved ones all over again. As the lead prosecutor whose team presented this case to a jury of twelve Minnesotans and then prevailed at every step of the appeals process, I am deeply troubled by what this says about the state of our politics," Ellison said.

Ben Crump and Antonio Romanucci, the attorneys who represented Floyd's family in a wrongful death lawsuit, were left "sickened by this lack of respect." They also demanded the Minnesota GOP retract their moment of silence and apologize to Floyd's family.

"The audacity of the Minnesota Republican Party to honor an individual who has both been convicted by a jury of his peers for the murder of a fellow human being, while at the same time (violating) a professional oath to protect and serve his community, is disgusting," they said in a statement.

Reached via text message on Thursday, Floyd's New York-based brother, Terrence Floyd, said he was "glad to see people are still fighting with us for complete justice."
How some conservatives support police officers

The moment of silence for Chauvin fits a pattern of flashpoints when conservatives reacted to police violence with "back the blue" initiatives. Long before 2020, when George Floyd's murder catalyzed the largest racial justice demonstrations since the Civil Rights Movement, some officers were symbols of "law and order" or anti-Black Lives Matter sentiment.

For example in 2014, after Darren Wilson — the former Ferguson, Missouri, police officer who is white — fatally shot 18-year-old Michael Brown, who was Black, a GoFundMe website raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for the officer's family and legal defense. The amount dwarfed the total raised for Brown's family. Wilson ultimately did not face criminal charges or federal civil rights offenses.

Officers in the high-profile cases in which police killed Laquan McDonald in Chicago and Eric Garner in New York also drew sizable support from law enforcement unions that recast the criminal prosecution or discipline of officers as unjust and politically motivated.

Although legal outcomes vary a lot in these cases, most prominent examples of support for officers charged in killings do not result in overturned convictions.

Can't Wait for ICE-GESTAPO Deployment to Red States Under a Democrat Administration

Donald Dumb is really dumb. His only reference to history is to leave of fake legacy of narcissistic grandeur. But he doesn't understand that all the laws he broke and all the norms he violated will come back to haunt the Republican party for generations to come, because he has created precedents that future Democrat administrations will use to justify their own free-wheeling lawlessness of they so choose.

For example, the deployment of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers across the country by the Trump administration sets a precedent. "A different ruler could use this precedent in a very damaging way for our free society", said podcaster Joe Rogan on his podcast. "It's a very dangerous precedent," he added.

There were recent ICE deployments to Los Angeles, Chicago and the Minneapolis–Saint Paul area of Minnesota, among other parts of the country that generally vote Democrat. Suspicions are mounting that Trump wants to us his ICE-GESTAPO police to control the midterm elections this November by scaring voters from going to the voting booth. Since the deterred voters are more likely to be Democrat voters in blue states, the net effect of this move would be to favor Republican voters and their candidates.

Viral footage of officers clashing with protesters and — in some cases — using excessive force rapidly spread across social media, sparking debates about the Trump administration's tactics to remove and deter undocumented immigrants.

"It is a very slippery slope when you give people — and they're trained for seven weeks; they're not trained very long. They're trained for much less time than police officers, much less time than military," Rogan said.

"And then you have this militarized police force that has no identification, and they're on the streets. That's a precedent that you might like it when it's for a cause that you support, but that could easily be for a cause you do not support," he added.

Rogan, who endorsed President Trump in 2024, has begun a soft retreat from his pro-Trump positions by, for example, comparing ICE operations to the "Gestapo." And now, he is gently inserting into the political discourse his cowardly mutation into a less favorable opinion of Trump, as he knows the direction of the winds of change. Republican snakes like him, who wholeheartedly supported the criminal demented moron Trump, are all changing their tunes because they know what the electorate will do next November.

"I am very concerned with this dangerous precedent. That's my feeling on it. So, I just worry that people accept it because they want this result now, and they don't realize that this could set up this being a common occurrence," Rogan said.

Any Democrat who replaces Donald Dumb in 2028 will use the same tactics against his Republican opponents, rivals, and red states who enabled the criminal Trump from breaking laws, norms and the constitution. Can't wait!
