Those silly protesting kids were so naive. And I'm even dumber, I guess since I thought they were basing their protests on an active genocide that they can see with their own eyes. I guess it was those evil Iranians buying up all those "matching" green $20 tents and feeding the kids cheap Domino's pizza and Chinese communist party "deepfakes" of rubble, bodies and devastation in Gaza on TikTok.
If ever there was a case of the elephant in the room, here it is.
The ability of pro-Israel individuals and groups in the United States to so influence our government that we stand on the brink of war with Iran not for any reason having to do with the national security of the US, but to defend a tiny ethnic cleansing bully nation that has spent decades inciting not just Iran but Syria and Lebanon with violations of their national sovereignties. International law? The US has shielded Israel from all of it and thereby allowed a monster to be produced that sees no limit to what it may do.
At the moment, Iran is considering like any other country in the world would, what to do to counter a foreign nation conducting assassinations in Iran, and not the first ones, only the latest in a series of Israeli operations in Iran. Over the years Israeli PM Netanyahu has repeated called for war with Iran while realizing that it can only be conducted with the US doing the heavy lifting. He is now about to have his wish and Washington is helpless to stay out of his dream come true.
Years ago, Netanyahu told Israeli settlers that "the Americans are easily managed" (on video) and now to my amazement and terror, this man has proven it beyond doubt. Our President and Congress are so cowed by pro-Israel political power in the US that neither can act to keep us out of war with Iran, helpless to avoid sacrificing American lives in any number required to keep Israel from paying the price for what it has done.
Israel, not the US, is shown in this to be the real sole superpower; the tail not only wagging the dog but causing the dog to injure itself. And nobody is shouting to the rooftops about this, but instead we have the nonsense Ken has written about here. What the hell is wrong with Americans that they do not rise in outrage to stop what is about to happen as well as the subservience of our President to the wished of Netanyahu in continuing the slaughter in Gaza with no end in sight?
Instead, Americans are watching the Olympics, most not even aware that we are on the brink of war that is of no benefit to our country. Insert a string of profanity here!
This is why I am absolute in standing up for free speech for everyone. I don't have to like what people are saying. They did this same thing to Trump supporters whether people want to acknowledge it or not. Russian influence (an inconsequential amount was actually Russian) gave them a pretext to label Americans as domestic extremists. As I did then, I will stand up for those who want to speak. And, I will not buy into these junk excuses by the intelligence agencies. They've been controlling America for far too long.
Ken, your choice of subjects is what sets you apart... Excellent!!
Is financing a protest illegal? People may not like but I don’t like cole slaw yet I am not demanding that it should be taken off the market. The ability to tolerate is diminished along with the desire to have civil discourse.
Instead learning how to live with something we disagree about, we elect to change that target into something else... like spreading “democracy” around the world.
“Differences” were, at one time, a badge of honor. When jazz hit the scene, it was derided and wasn’t where a good person should be. But it continued and flourished... nobody tried to convince Miles Davis to be more like David Cassidy. Today, the most knowledgeable people in music are jazz musicians... they read music, their ability to play virtually anything is remarkable, most of the sessions players have a jazz background and possess moxy (look at Steely Dan their lead guitarist is Jeff Baxter who is literally a rocket scientist).
Full disclosure: I dislike jazz to the nth degree but I respect and learn from them.
Compromise used to be a diluted solution but it worked because the differences had to be recognized and understood. Today it is all or nothing... and it sucks. Compromise is what Steely Dan did, its what Miles Davis did which later received a descriptive moniker that fully explained that compromise... fusion. Instead of separating the good from the bad, the “diversity” was blended in and created a new product.
The US just softening up the public to justify a war with Iran - the more haters they create the better. I dare say if anyone stops to think about it, contrary to Harris’s threats about the POTUS, Iran shares the average American’s opinion on the two candidates: they both suck.
These allegations conveniently follow war criminal Netanyahu‘s labelling of anti-genocide protesters as “Iran’s useful idiots.” Foreign interference? AIPAC and Israeli officials have written the playbook.
“If you want Donald Trump, then say that,” Harris said, referring to chants of “We won’t vote for genocide.” Harris continued: “Otherwise, I’m speaking.”
You know, for a couple minutes I thought I might actually vote for the people who have devoted their lives to making sure the Democratic Party will never serve my interests.
Typical. The USG never proves the truth of anything (it's secret) and it typically turns out they lied. I suspect we've reached the late Soviet stage where no one with half a brain believes the government any more they've lied so often.

Switching it up from "Russia did it" for a change. When will we start hearing about the *new* Axis of Evil?
It's election season! There will be plenty of "Russia did it": https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-features/cia-ica-report-author-trump-russia-1235067814/

That’s some serious posturing for AIPAC from those Congress folk. I don’t know how these people sleep at night.
On a huge pile of cash!
They belong to a paranoid death cult. Like all extremists, they care only about the well-being of their preferred in-group.
AIPAC needs to be investigated for foreign cash going directly to politicians. This is the real crime.
After a truly depressing article from Ken, like this one, I like to kick back with a warm cup of tea and a picture of hunters huge hog.
Countdown to an Iranian patron donation taking down all the boys.
lol

Couldn’t agree more.
Just as well there are no revelations that certain anti-Iran organizations in the United States have received funding from the Israeli regime.
There's plenty of anti iran sentiment in washington already, they don't need israeli funding!
True fact.

Next they will put them on the TSA watch list or the no fly list. That's the go to these days to suppress dissent.

I wish that was true, but it is definitely not.
Between Animal Farm and 1984, the current age has been clearly envisioned. And yet, here we are, falling for exactly what Orwell described.
