Is not our greatest ally in the Middle East under attack by
Iranian backed satanic and diabolic terrorists hell-bent on
annihilation of the Jews? And what is the response from our government and
media? President Biden and some pro Islam anti-Zionists have demonized and attempted
to persuade Israel to hold off on a Gaza land invasion while giving aid and
comfort to its enemies. Many within MSM, to include anti-Zionist found in the
bowels of social media, some within our own U.S. Congress, a significant number
of students, professors/teachers and school administrators from both secondary public
schools and post graduate academia have become Hamas and Iranian proxy Jihad apologists,
blaming Israel for the conflict ad nauseum. Have these anti-Israel activists, demonstrators,
protestors... not learned to beware of ignorance when in motion; “look
out for inexperience when in action and beware of the majority when mentally
poisoned with misinformation, for collective ignorance does not become wisdom.” There is so much
misinformation and so little facts in the coverage surrounding Israel and their
fight against Islamic Jihad. Alas, “nothing in all the world is more dangerous than
sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity.” Sadly, there is a segment of our ignorant, uneducated,
uninformed... citizenry that has failed to recall the facts of the matter. What
say you?

So Much Misinformation and So Little Facts

Like Others Before Me
Like others before me, I too, am concerned about the security of this once great Republic; not so much because of any menace or peril from without, but because of malicious and menacing forces working from within. How so you may be wondering. Let us look no further than a response to “Wokism.” Is there a growing "anti-woke" backlash? Are not moderates, traditionalists, conservatives, neoconservatives, constitutionalists... beginning to push back against, leftists, progressives, social activists, reformists, educates... who have strong liberal woke agendas? Thus, the woke who are judging the "un-woke" as, in some measure, ignoble for not being woke are now being judged by the anti-woke as inferior for being self-righteous, condemnatory, strait-laced, and exceedingly sensitive. While it might be tempting to call out, shame, ostracize or cancel those who are not woke or woke enough to racism and social injustice, doing so can create a number of problems. No one wants “wokism” to be the “road to hell paved with good intentions.” In essence, the table has now been turned and the judges are now being judged. I suppose, in a manner of speaking, I'm claiming to be woke to the anti-woke who claim to be woke to the woke. Now you might be woke to me for claiming to be woke to the anti-woke... I think we just entered some kind of recursive Mobius strip wormhole.
One can only hypothecate what many theorists have
long wondered. In particular, how the great complexity of life can be reconciled with
the laws of thermodynamics that suggest that “all systems must inevitably decay to a state of greatest disorder.” Is there
merit to this train of thought? Ponder
this: History fails to record a single precedent in which nations subject to
moral decay have not passed into political and economic decline. There has been
either a spiritual awakening to overcome the moral lapse or a progressive
deterioration leading to ultimate national disaster. I fear the latter, the second mentioned
of the two is now upon America. What can we do to reverse our current course? We
can do what we can, with what we have, where we are.

The Tale of The Three Strategic Stooges
When reading this post, take into consideration the values of leadership. Men make history, be it good or bad, and not the other way around. In periods where there is no leadership, society stands still. Progress occurs when courageous, skillful leaders of honor seize the opportunity to change things for the better. Unfortunately, all too often so-called leaders tend to expect others to be determined, focused, reliable, accountable, responsible, and have integrity. These qualities that leaders expect should be traits and attributes that they already possess themselves and great leaders will not lead by coercion, persuasion, sociopolitical ideology...instead they lead by example. Do you recall the testimony of Biden’s senior military leaders about the advice they gave him on the Afghanistan withdrawal timeline? If not let me jog your memory. Prior to the pullout, his top commanders recommended he maintain a force of 2500-3500 uniformed service personnel to assure a safe and orderly departure of Americans and their Afghan cohorts and family members. Weeks and months later, our “thick as two short planks” President was queried by multiple MSM personnel about his disastrous Afghanistan withdrawal and his failure to follow the advice of his top military advisors. Not to sound redundant, but prior to the pullout, his top military officials, Chairman Joint Chief of Staff, General Mark Milley, General Austin Miller, and Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin did in fact warn him against his hasty withdrawal timeline. Lest we forget, in his infinite wisdom or lack thereof, cerebrally challenged Biden was responding to questions about life and death and American national security. Fact, here is a sampling of Biden’s response to some of the mentioned media queries... “No, no one said that to me that I can recall” ... “No, they didn’t... “That wasn’t true.” ... “No, no one said that to me that I can recall.” It’s as if none of Biden’s handlers had bothered to tell him that news networks are disposed to record their journalists’ conversations with U.S. presidents. These lies, emitted by Lying Biden won’t be as long-remembered as, say, Bill Clinton’s “I did not have sex with that woman.” That’s truly ill-fated. Because as prevaricates go, this one is of far greater consequence than Wild Bill’s venture. The long and short of it, The Afghan capital of Kabul fell to the Taliban without a shot being fired. And that was after months of steady advances by the Taliban, months during which the Biden administration had every opportunity to correct course, to keep that residual force in place a little longer, to maintain control of Bagram Air Base as long as necessary. So much for the estimated $84 billion spent to arm and train the Afghan forces over the course of 20 years. And so much for the ultimate sacrifice made by “2,448” American combatants during that long war, and by an additional 13 who died in a Kabul airport suicide bombing that some argue was coming. It should not be forgotten, there is no accounting for the number of men, women, and children maimed, tortured, and slain after Biden, Milley and Austin abandoned the realm to Taliban control.
Is it conceivable that our cognitively declining president simply failed to comprehend this straight-up, simple, and consistent recommendation from his senior military leaders? Or that he heard it but forgot it soon thereafter? But those possibilities are even more disturbing than a straight-up lie. Final thoughts: First; The ultimate qualities of leadership are unquestionably integrity, honor, truthfulness... Without it, no real success is possible, whether in the midst of a storm, on a ball field, on the battlefield, or in the Oval Office. Second; In Milley’s own words, “It was a logistical success but a strategic failure.” But he, like Secretary Austin, refuse to be held accountable. Neither of them had the honor or testes to step down in protest when President Biden chooses not to take their advice. Following the Afghan extraction fiasco, Milley had apparently found lots of orders he was pleased to carry out, including being the chief military protagonist for all of Biden’s woke agenda orders relating to diversity and social justice, which are having a calamitous effect on military readiness. Truth of the matter, Milley, with Austin in the shadows, enforced Biden’s CRT agenda, executed his faux “white supremacist” military witch hunt, which I liken to Montefalco’s "benandante" investigations as it pertained to the inquisition and persecutions of the 1500’s. Furthermore, Milley launched Biden’s military Coronavirus vaccination decree... Milley essentially converted the DOD, Biden’s pet project, Department of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion. Allow me to end this post with some good news and some words of wisdom as it pertains to leadership. The good news: Milley has this week retired from active military service. Milley’s departure will not be a net plus. At least his ineptitude and capacity for using our military as a petri dish for Biden’s woke agenda was known.” Now for the words of wisdom:” Men make history and not the other way around. In periods where there is no leadership, society stands still. Progress occurs when courageous, skillful leaders seize the opportunity to change things for the better.

Biden the Octogenarian Contrarian and His Misuse of Taxpayers' Dollars
Biden is using taxpayers’ dollars funding programs meant for fighting terrorists, securing our borders, rebuilding our military, raising Americans standard of living, while maliciously targeting conservatives, Christians, and the GOP, especially those MAGA’s aligned with Donald Trump. As the late great Paul Harvey would say, “Now for the rest of the story.” ... The present administration, to include the current Commander in Chief have recklessly labeled Fox News, CBN, RNC, Turning Point USA, Prolife News, parents of school age children who openly challenge CRT, LGBTQ+, Woke curriculum in our public schools... as the most objectional extremist hate groups, calling the “paths of extremism” and insisting they be deplatformed, canceled, terminated, even jailed... Biden the Octogenarian Contrarian and his party are literally and factually attempting to shut down any rival viewpoints via cooperation from sources within MSM, social media, Big Tech, teachers unions, DOJ, FBI, IRS, DHS... This is how liberty dies. Final thoughts follow: Benjamin Franklin, when asked what sort of government has been created, he famously responded: “A republic... if you can keep it.” I ask you, the reader, can we keep it? If so, who will lead us out of this enveloping constitutional malaise? How will he or she accomplish the undertaking? When will the task at hand begin?

Biden the Octogenarian Contrarian is literally and factually attempting to shut down any rival viewpoints via cooperation from sources within left leaning MSM, Big Tech, DOJ, CIA, IRS, DHS...

Who Are You Going to Believe
Can you believe there is actually segments of America who take exception to country music star Jason Aldean’s song; “Try That in A Small Town.” Do not the song lyrics accurately depict instances of aberrational behaviors by social deviants, rioters, radical activists, reprobates, neophyte thugs ... such as torching a U.S. flag; berating, antagonistic, pugnacious combative warlike actions against law enforcement officers, wholesale vandalism... among other belligerent acts? Were these acts not backed up by actual MSM and social media footage on video? Who are you going to believe, the radical left, race hustlers, woke militants, forces of the ignominious and infamous or your eyes? The song then goes on to warn others not to try such behavior in small towns, implying that residents who live there would not put up with it. In my opinion, acts of abnormal, criminal, or deviant behavior, be it perpetrated in a major metropolitan city, a medium size municipality or small town by societal pariahs, thugs, hoods, muggers... should bite the proverbial bullet and serve the time for their lawless propensities. It is past time, that we the people wake up and see the madness being perpetrated across this great land and demand appropriate leadership consider the rights of the majority rather than the miniscule fractional aberrant few who for political or leftist ideological gain topple this once great land for their own illicit power and thus control, In summation, I post his opinion piece as one who identifies as a Concerned American Patriot, Christian, Conservative, Constitutionalist, Retired Army Careerist, Pro law enforcement, anti-counter culturalist and dare I say, Country Music enthusiast.

With Woke Curriculum in Public Schools comes Student Mental Conflict and Discordancy
Ponder the following commentary as presented: No sexual agenda, heterosexual, homosexual, GBTQ.I.A.+- or other Woke babble, should be promoted to youth under the age of 18, especially under an entity funded with taxpayer dollars. Our children need to be protected from this radical woke agenda, dare I say, indoctrination, that has besieged our country. One has to be void of a semblance of intellect to realize adolescence can be a complicated, confusing, and convoluted time. Explaining bodily changes and the proper purpose of sexuality is a task not for teachers, school board members, union officials, even presidents but for parents. Masculinity and femininity are part of God’s plan for humanity. A deep conviction must be established that the body is for God Almighty. Developing moral relationships in the midst of the modern social scene is challenging. Public school libraries and classrooms, school boards, teacher unions and DC politicos are serving up immoral toxins precisely at that naïve, capricious, and unpredictable age when it is more likely to penetrate the mind and more rapidly spreads its pernicious and toxic consequence. For parents and grandparents alike, especially those of faith, the fight to protect children from predatory and/or perverse texts in public school libraries and classrooms must continue. Parents must be alert that their children or grandchildren receive religious instruction as soon as they are capable of understanding it; and that nothing may, in the schools they attend, diminish, or mar their faith or their morals. Clearly today’s parents must be careful that public school libraries and classrooms, school boards, teacher unions, left-leaning politicians, social deviant activists, aberrant neophytes... do not blemish the faith or morals of school age children by way of woke and CRT diatribe. In short, the case against infusing "Woke" curriculum into secondary public education is indefensible. It is smoke and mirrors. It is rooted in aberrant behavior and total disregard for America's future. It is fueled by a stunning ignorance of a fundamental truth or proposition that serves as the foundation for a system of belief or behavior or for a chain of reasoning, sound educational principles, which is part and parcel of a broader rejection of reason itself.

Consummate Hate Hustlers.
Enjoy the following tongue and cheek response to another historical fubar by two mutton heads. Ben and Jerry, the ice cream duo has been busy using the proceeds from ice cream sales to promote far-left causes, now having become consummate hate hustlers. Last week, their B&J brand celebrated Independence Day by promoting this historically nescient tripe across social media: “This 4th of July, it’s high time we recognize that the US exists on stolen Indigenous land and commit to returning it.” For the record, most ‘indigenous land’ was stolen by indigenous people from other indigenous people.” The B&J post linked to a corporate page proclaiming their first turnover project is returning Mount Rushmore and the Black Hills to the Lakota tribe. The problem is, once this transfer takes place, will the Lakota turn around and give the Black Hills back to the tribes they took them from? It’s never a good idea to get history lessons from an ice cream maker with a hippy vibe that sold out to a multinational conglomerate. Perhaps in honor of the reparations that Ben & Jerry’s will not be paying, they can launch a new flavor, “Eat Crow” – though they’ve yet to launch a new suggested flavor, "Biden Brain Freeze." Notably. the most famous of indigenous people descendants, Elizabeth “Honest Injun” Warren, has not commented on the latest B&J controversy.
