must be an israeli morning as here's more on the 'jewish' question. few question anything about the 'jewish' question because others color our conclusions. if you look deeper and further then things don't add up. there is an ocean of evidence, for example, that israel in cooperation with the cia, did 911. the lavon affair, the uss liberty, and so on, with bibi's many quotes about how israel controls america;

Rabbis often say that antisemitism is the jealousy of those who have not been chosen by God — a kind of Cain complex.

French Jewish political advisor Jacques Attali proposes a subtler variation: antisemitism is resentment against those to whom we are indebted.[1] What do Christians owe to Jews? God, of course! Without the Jews, we would not know God, and we resent them for that.

I disagree. If the Goyim are ungrateful, that may be because, in the deepest recesses of their soul, they know they have been tricked. They have accepted from the Jews a phony God, a grotesque and malevolent forgery. Even worse, the Jews convinced them long ago to throw away the real thing that they had had all along.

We, Christians, have signed a civilizational contract that for two thousand years has prohibited us from accessing the idea of ​​God through reason alone, as the Greeks and Romans had taught us, and which instead requires our adherence to the Jews’ “revelation” that God is the god of Israel. The Jews thus stripped us of the most essential freedom, and obtained from us the recognition of their original metaphysical superiority, an unmatchable and unstoppable symbolic power.

The civilization of cunningness

We should have known better. It is clear enough in the Jewish scriptures that cunningness is the essence of Jewishness. It is by deceiving his father, his brother, and his uncle that Jacob became the eponymous founder of Israel (Genesis 25-36). John E. Anderson has tried to justify this Hebrew “theology of deception” in a book titled Jacob and the Divine Trickster (2011). How can God be “complicit in Jacob’s deception”? Anderson’s answer is that God had to be, for the higher purpose of “the perpetuation of the ancestral promise.”[2] But of course, the question itself is stupid unless, like Anderson, you are victim of the core biblical deception and take the biblical God seriously. If Yahweh is just “the god of Israel who pretends to be God”, then everything is perfectly logical: like god, like people, and vice versa.

The origin of this metaphysical trick seems to go back to the fifth century BC, in Babylon under Persian domination, when Ezra published the first version of the Tanakh (later revised by the Hasmoneans). As I showed in From Yahweh to Zion, the subterfuge is almost transparent in the Books of Ezra and Nehemiah, in which the divinity called “Yahweh, the god of Israel” in the main body of the text, is called “Yahweh, the God of Heaven” in the fake edicts attributed to the Persian kings authorizing the rebuilding of the temple in Jerusalem: the implication is that the Zoroastrian Persians have been tricked into believing that the Jews worship the universal God.........more......

 unless you choose a 'side' as a true believer there was nothing in the 'debate' to counter the points made here by mr lawrence. we're in a handbasket hurtling towards hell which most all of our actions since 1945 have earned us. in my estimation the orange man is only a few millimeters better than the fool and otherwise indistinguishable from the other. what war have you voted for. when did you vote for open borders. when did you choose israeli/corporate rule over the constitution, and too many more to list;

Give me a sec to think. I need to make a list. Two.

The genocide in Gaza, the Middle East tinderbox, Bezalel Smotrich, the lost proxy war in Ukraine, relations with Russia, the danger of nuclear war, the fate of NATO, China, the threat of war with Iran, the emergence of a new world order, Europe’s turn toward populism, third world debt, global inequality, the sharply worsening climate crisis: It is a start on the foreign side, in no particular order.

Inter the endless alia in these United States, I’ve got social and economic inequality, money in politics, our drift toward late-imperial bankruptcy, the corruption of the judiciary, the housing crisis from hell, Julian Assange and press freedom, the creeping censorship regime, widespread drug addiction, immigration, the price of eggs, the Pentagon budget: I will leave out Taylor Swift and stop here.

So, a brief précis of the imposing problems defining the tasks of all world leaders in 2024, and then another atop the first for the man or woman who sits behind the Resolute Desk in the Oval Office, as every president since Kennedy has. I settled last night at 8 Central time thinking I might hear a little something about, maybe, one or two items on each of these lists as Donald Trump and Joe Biden faced off—I decline the term “debate”—in a studio at CNN’s headquarters in Atlanta.

Nothing. Not a usefully coherent thought to any of this. Nero should have been up there as an honorary third candidate—with his fiddle for the background music, of course.

When these two frightening people descended into a bickering exchange concerning Biden’s golf handicap and Trump’s girth, I knew this first and probably last direct exchange between two incompetents contending for the world’s most powerful office was a lost cause. I lost 90 minutes of my time as it schussed down the chute. But never mind that. And never mind the media “analysts,” who rated the event like theater critics according to who turned in the best performance. The American people lost Wednesday night, and they lost big. And beyond Americans, the rest of the world lost, too.

I have regretted for years the extent to which elections in this country have come to be determined not by ideas, courage and imagination, guiding principles, or the articulation of wise ways forward, but by affect. There is a history to this that goes back to the 18th century—sentimental politics, let’s call it—but we can leave that for another time. We are on notice as of Wednesday evening that affect is all there is left in the matter of presidential politics..........more.......

 our war department isn't a defense department unless you see invading other countries as defense. in addition to that basic premise, the money spent there doesn't protect us but it does act for corporate interests, as displayed by the various money pits we dive into that produce results such as those explored in this air force abortion;

All of a sudden, the US Air Force is considering cancelling a multibillion-dollar effort to develop a new stealth fighter. Citing the high cost of the so-called “Next-Generation Air Dominance” programme and the competing demands of other projects, USAF leaders have warned they may have no choice but to cancel NGAD – and find other ways of winning control of the air in future wars.

It’s a startling development for advocates of American air power. For generations, the whole US military – not to mention the militaries of America’s closest allies – have depended on the US Air Force to achieve air superiority against even the most determined and sophisticated foe, affording freedom of action for troops on the ground and ships at sea.

For generations, the US Air Force has gained control of the air by fighting for it, jet to jet, with the world’s best air-to-air fighters – and highly-trained pilots. Late in the Cold War and into the 2000s, the Boeing F-15C Eagle fighter was the world’s top fighter. Later, the Lockheed Martin F-22 Raptor assumed this position.

The last few dozen F-15Cs are finally retiring after five decades of service. The 180 or so F-22s are pushing 20 years old – and won’t last forever. The US Air Force has already asked the US Congress for permission to retire the three dozen least-capable F-22s in order to free up a billion dollars for other priorities – a request lawmakers have denied, for now.

As recently as a year ago, the disappearance of the last few “fourth-generation” F-15Cs and the “fifth-generation” F-22s’ advancing age weren’t crises. The US Air Force had been working for years, mostly in secret, to develop a new “sixth-generation” fighter under the auspices of the NGAD program. The new piloted warplane would combine high speed, long range and radar-evading stealth – and would carry a new generation of powerful missiles while also flying and fighting in formation with AI-controlled drones.

The plan, as of this spring, was for the US Air Force to acquire 200 of the new jets starting in the 2030s. That plan is now falling apart..........more.........

 mr giraldi, former cia, reinforces what evidently is the theme this am: the joos aren't who they tell us they are and they control the empire. doubt that? investigate the uss liberty attacked by israel in 1967, as a starter kit in discovering that control;

Once upon a time the United States of America was a constitutional republic that was by design constructed with checks and balances to limit corruption and constrain the ability of any branch of government to initiate certain potentially harmful actions, like going to war, which required approval by both Congress and the Executive Branch. Of course, that was 261 years ago and things change over time. Today’s America, what claims to be both a democracy and the issuer plus enforcer of international rules and norms, is arguably one of the most corrupt as well as most disliked countries on earth, with a political system that is exceptionally vulnerable to those who have deep pockets and a willingness to spend freely to obtain favors from the professional politicians and bureaucrats who now proliferate throughout the system.

If one measures the consequences arising from all the corruption, there is no better example than the heavily lopsided relationship with Israel, which has been produced through the infusion of hundreds of billions of dollars coming primarily from Jewish billionaire and corporate sources. Casino magnate Sheldon Adelson famously gifted Donald Trump with $100 million and in return received what he demanded, i.e. a United States decision to move the US Embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem and a recognition that Jerusalem would be recognized as the country’s capital, which was illegal under international law. Additionally, Trump’s team headed by Israeli apologist Ambassador David Friedman, brought about the recognition of the Jewish state’s annexation of the occupied formerly Syrian Golan Heights, also an illegal concession, and the de facto granting of a free hand to Israel for dealing with the Palestinians as it sees fit, which is playing out currently. Trump also was in the business of canceling a nuclear monitoring agreement with Iran, which was very much in the US interest, and the assassination senior Iranian Revolutionary Guard commander Qassim Soleimani, a war crime.

The heavily pro-Israel policies have not developed in the US because of some actual affinity between the two nations but rather because of great dollops of Jewish money liberally applied to politicians and journalists to create a myth of an actual beneficial alliance between the two to produce a narrative that the US public would be inclined to accept. In this massive coordinated effort by what is euphemistically referred to as the Israel Lobby there is no more active entity than the basically illegal American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) and its conjoined AIPAC-Political Action Committee, which delivers the cash and also the intimidation of political candidates who do not embrace the Jewish state with enthusiasm. Such dissidents are marked for removal through the surfacing of opposing prospective candidates who are particularly well-funded and sure to receive exceptionally favorable press. In the current round of primaries just concluded, AIPAC-Pac has boasted that it has achieved 100% success as “an AIPAC-endorsed candidate has won in every district (224 races) where an endorsee was on the ballot. All 90 AIPAC-backed Democrats who have had their primary races in 2024 have won. These Democrats are strong pro-Israel voices. 134 AIPAC-backed Republicans have [also]won their elections. Being pro-Israel is good policy and good politics.”...........more........

 the common thread in this post is who controls 'our' government and its obvious to anyone with eyes and a preference for choosing reality. bibi has said publicly that israel controls the empire, us;

En route to Congress, Jamaal Bowman was forced to issue a ritual denunciation of one of his heroes, six-term Georgia Congresswoman and 2008 Green Party presidential candidate Cynthia McKinney. We know Bowman admired McKinney because he put her, alongside Malcolm X, Martin Luther King, and others, on his Cornerstone Academy “wall of honor.”

But Bowman’s ritual denunciations of McKinney didn’t save him. AIPAC, the Jewish billionaire lobby that runs America as its private fiefdom, couldn’t allow anyone to remain in Congress who doesn’t enthusiastically support the genocide of Gaza.

Cynthia McKinney, during her six terms in Congress, got a close-up-and-personal view of the Jewish billionaires’ stranglehold over American government. If she had let them buy her the way they’ve bought almost everyone else (except Thomas Massie?) she might well have become a vice president, or even president.

One of the Jewish billionaire dictatorship’s genocidal mind-control commissars informs us:

Bowman has likewise left no doubt that he disagrees with McKinney’s most vile, antisemitic statements. When McKinney tweeted a meme about Zionists perpetrating 9/11 in June 2021, Bowman replied that her message was “antisemitic,” “hateful,” “misguided and ignorant,” and asked Twitter to remove her post…McKinney, an outspoken Israel critic, lost the Democratic primary to a challenger backed by pro-Israel donors in 2002. When asked who he blamed for McKinney’s difficult race, McKinney’s father, then-state Rep. Billy McKinney, told a TV interviewer: “Jews have bought everybody. Jews, J-E-W-S.”

Cynthia McKinney, like her father, has the guts to spell it out. If Americans ever take back their country, she’ll feature prominently and heroically in the history books.

The Anti-German Government which the German People Themselves Have Elected Has Declared its Loyalty to Immigrant-Invaders and Stands Against the German People

Paul Craig Roberts

In 2020 a 15-year old ethnic German female was raped by nine Immigrant-invaders in Hamburg, Germany. In response, a 20-year old ethnic German female citizen called one of the gang rapists a “disgraceful rapist pig.” The German citizen was sentenced to jail for defaming an immigrant-invader, a protected species under German law. The rapist was given a suspended sentence and served no jail time.

The question before us is: As the German government represents immigrant-invaders and not ethnic Germans, are the German people so brainwashed and indoctrinated that they will fight in defense of a government that does not represent them?

US Supreme Court Hands Corrupt Justice (sic) Department a Knock Down Blow

Paul Craig Roberts

The Supreme Court has ruled that law provides no basis for the obstruction charge brought against a January 6 protester who defended in court against the Justice (sic) Department’s false charges. But of course merrick garland had no interest in any facts. “Vengence is mine,” saith lord garland. “No it is not,” saith the U.S. Supreme Court.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2024/06/28/supreme-court-obstruction-jan-6-trump/?utm_campaign=wp_post_most&utm_medium=email&utm_source=newsletter&wpisrc=nl_most&carta-url=https%3A%2F%2Fs2.washingtonpost.com%2Fcar-ln-tr%2F3e1cf1c%2F667edd80f90ed25268e80567%2F65fa0b3dbf30d6267bab04bf%2F8%2F52%2F667edd80f90ed25268e80567

The US Department of Justice (sic) has, to date, framed and imprisoned 1,000 patriotic Americans who exercised their Constitutional Rights. Those who could not afford to defend themselves or did not trust a Democrat Washington judge and jury and pled guilty to reduced charges, were charged with unlawful entry or some other such false charge. But those who defended themselves from the false charges were charged with obstructing and impending an official proceeding which carries a 20-year prison sentence. In other words, the offenses that Trump supporters were charged depended on whether they self-incriminated or went to trial. Those who defended themselves received longer sentences. So much for “justice” in America.

Those who chose a trial did not have a “jury of their peers.” They were judged by a lynch mob egged on by America’s whore media, such as the Washington Post, long regarded as a CIA asset.

In America conviction is swift and is seldom on the basis of evidence, but correction of wrongful conviction is very rare and a long time in arriving if it does..........more....
