Israel and Palestine, no longer skirmishes


The battle lines are drawn...and I don't see a back off...who is right and who is wrong?
...as Israel and Palestine, their feud has turned deadly...no longer just 'skirmishes' but on the lines of all out war...this is my commentary follow up to yesterday's blog post...can there ever be peace in the region?...I doubt it...think of what is there...Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Iran, Syria, Egypt, and well, you get the picture...add on the combustible nation of Israel...so much different than the rest of them....and, our presence in the region...

Why are we there?...duh...the two reasons...oil and our forever faith and promise to help Israel...do YOU have an answer?...no USA regime, Democrat or Republican, has had one...as we wallow in near war most every single day...

On the home front, the Repubs have continued their harassment of the 3rd in command, so to speak, Liz Cheney...as she talked to the House yesterday....blazing, well, lambasting the trump and his so called policies...and what he has done and tried to do, while squatting in the White House...it was highly memorable...and her 'screw you' to the rest of the forevers, who will vote her out of the 'leadership' spot she has...today...really, who would want that position anyhoo?...

Oil?...some areas have had to deal with a shortage, due to a cyber attack...the SE in particular...have not noticed it here in SoCal...we do thrive on our petrol, don't we...

OK, other...

The path to Hawaii...not so easy...as we have to take Covid tests prior to getting on board the plane...you all know this....72 hrs before...as we did yesterday...at $170 a pop...which takes a grand total of 3-5 minutes...now THAT'S a racket...just got back my results, and I am NORMAL!...this may be the first time I have ever, ever, like in my entire lifetime, been termed normal...

Just got word that Snooki passed too...I didn't say past, so quit your worrying...believe me, he is far from normal...should I waketh Marsh, and see what she tested?...she is normal...Laurie?...

Not so much are the mighty Padres...as 5 of them, at this juncture...are in quarantine protocol...Jr and Myers have Covid, and 3 others have been put on the watch list...at least a week of subs running our club...the squib today, suggests we may have more...egads...why doesn't management DEMAND these players get their shots?...c'mon...well, thus far in Colorado, the subs won 8-1 last eve...

The NBA...the teams are in the last week of the regular 72 game season...jockeying for spots...in the playoffs...man, the Warriors have beat the Jazz and Suns in this last phase...I like their enthusiasm and D...and ball movement...fun to watch...and...damn if the Lakers didn't get a W in OT over the Knicks last nite...hate LA...is it just me, or is the Brow the most fragile hoopster ever?...goes down like a Tinkertoy real easily...and often...

Yes, so I went and got my flight pills at CVS yesterday....as you know I am not the easiest flyer...but, after them, I am...and there is the area where anyone can show up and get a Covid vaccine...and there was NO ONE there...really?...c'mon folks, get that done...is there a CVS in Colorado?...hint hint Padres...

Hey, this crypto currency investment is going gangbusters...invested $55, with $5 fees, and now my portfolio is all the way up to $64.13!...just bought $12 more...for some reason, there is a limit to how much I can buy...don't get it...

Just thinking of this...gas is scarce, as are chicken fryers, and now, the playing Friars, are too...

The BEST album of the day...'The Sound of Music' soundtrack...Julie Andrews and Co...'the hills are alive'...

Just in...Liz Cheney removed from her spot, by VOICE VOTE!...ayes?...all...nayes?...silence...actually, I hear it was in a closed door meeting...sure...hate politicians...well, some of them...most of them...and trump...whatever he is...

'Remaining silent and ignoring the lie emboldens the liar'...Cheney on guess who?...

Prez B is to meet with Pelosi, Schumer, McConnell, and McCarthy today to discuss infrastructure and other domestic spending...this will be a give and take...not like the former regime's dictator type of 'leading'...

On the Alaska flight to Maui, one can order food ahead of time...we did...breakfast burrito and a cheese plate...and unlimited jack and cokes...and some unlimited white wine...and...well, that'll do us...thank you...

Another, just now announced...Carrie Underwood in residency at Vegas...Dec 1-11...REFLECTION:The Las Vegas Residency...Resorts World Las Vegas...

Yesterday, one of my biggest hits ever...258!...thanks for reading the Horse, and pass me on...and I say this more than ever...

PEACE!

He is alive and kicking...

Top of the morning, friends...as we embark on a shortish Cosmo trip (6+ hours) up north to see the kids. ..we try to see them every month or two....whatever works for us, and them...school has just started for them...and Cy has both football and soccer, he is playing...Cas, at 3, is still a wannabe... The distancing of trump with the public, was a bit weird, right?. ..he emerged and was talking the same...his appearance was a bit shaggy...he must have had the flu, or, well, Covid, or something...but, he is NOT DEAD....and still up to his shenanigans...same old...anything to bring up, to divert the people from hearing about the Epstein Files ...he unabashedly, called the whole thing a 'Democratic Hoax'... Hmmm...as 6 of the Survivors of it...(the Epstein Case) ...were talking, not only to the House....but, to the public, yesterday...as MTG was front and center with it...which, too, was odd...a fallout from trump?...or, a plant within the group?...no, trump, it is not a hoax.....

The Ignominy

So much for diplomacy ... the absolute embarrassment by the current President of the US...his actions in 'hosting' the Ukranian President Zelensky ... as it turned out, a highly visual representation of bullying by trump...the manners and methodology that he uses on people...aligned with his arse kissers, waiting their turn to take potshots at Zelenksy...all well orchestrated ...it was the ULTIMATE IGNOMINY of our country's 'leader'...unfortunately, for us, too...as somehow we are connected to that ogre...in reality, we are not... hoping the rest of the World can see that...here are samples of the headlines throughout that depict the sentiment of the slaughter... We are NOT aligned with Putin...WE ARE NOT!...trump is ...which begs a different query...how much longer can this idiocy go on?... I keep asking this...what does Putin have on trump, anyway...it must be a formidable foible... Talk to me, kids... This ploy of the orange...to actually simulate a firing squa...

A Trial, Indeed

The revenge tour is ramping up ...as we gawk at the unchecked moves by trump ...even SCOTUS , the last leg of justice, is wobbling beneath his demands... this country is in disarray ...I wish I could give you better news... The unsightly attack of one of his Icetapo behemoths, on a lady in New York...taking her to the ground...an example of the uncontrolled behavior of that organization...guess that is what you call the group... simply, out of control, with NO LIMITS of force ...sad...and disgusting... The indictment of his former FBI head, James Comey ...for lying (imagine that from a legendary liar, trump) to Congress...this court case is needed for the country...to show the fallacy of the regime that is running rampant all over the land...it needs to be a BIG STAGE! ... A trial, indeed... In data released by trump's own government...the largest groups of detainees...the Icetapo's achievement of rounding up people...are not the ones with ANY CRIMINAL RECORD , but, 'illeg...
